Lord Shadow

Chapter 811: Snow scattering in the wind

It a griffin clad in thunder elements swooping down from the sky. That is what she sees in the sky

‘Even Boris came here?’ She said as she looks at Katarina.

Boris descended down.

And before she could register what is happening, Sina saw there is beautiful girls all dressed in white also appearing up there in the skies and slowly descending form the sky elegantly.

Sina was speechless for a while.

If this was a movie or a novel, this is the grand appearance of the main female lead

Boris jump down from the griffin and come closer to Katarina.

Katarina seeing her brother coming towards her could only smiles bitterly.

‘Sorry’ she said as she waves her hand and the sky above Boris head opened up.

Coldness concentrated on the spot above Boris head.

‘Katarina, what are you doing!’ he shouted as he looks up and his eyes widened in shock

He could that there is four huge tall ice block that is descending down toward him.

He closes his eyes as the four ice block fall down from the sky and created a square cage that lock up Boris movement.

It is like a four walled jail cell descend down from heaven and trap Boris inside it

Even without Boris touching the ice block, he knew that this is magical sealing.

Even though the top is open, he knows that if he tries it would not budge. Just because there doesn’t appear to be anything on the top, doesn’t mean that is the truth.

Sight is the most easily deceived senses

‘Katarina, release me!’ He shouted. Most of his roar was muffled by the ice block sealing effect.

‘Just for a moment, brother’ Katarina said as Boris keep shouting. Sina look at Katarina and then she shakes her head.

The whole world is in battle, but Katarina and Azief is still in their melodrama mode. She could guess what happens.

From what she deduces, Katarina try to follow Azief again.

It is reminiscent like the time when Azief was nearly assassinated in the past. But she is suddenly here in Pandemonium and not wherever Azief should have been

From the start of the war with the invaders from this Otherworldly creatures, Azief had never shown his face here in Pandemonium.

But Katarina seem confident that he is here. Which only means that Azief had tricked Katarina.

Azief, Azief.

He could not let go but he could not hold her back either.

Probably because the two woman that love shim such a great woman, that he could probably never truly let either of them go.

She sighed and Sina simply said

‘He is not here’

‘That…that is impossible’ Katarina said, clearly not believing her.

‘I trace the origin of energy to here’ she added. Sina sighed and then she simply said

‘He is a Divine Comprehension leveler. You are…. Disk Formation. Just look what he could do with one strike of his’ Sina said as she gestures with her hand to the sky and the city

‘One strike is enough for him to mow down millions of demonic creatures. How hard it is for him to trick you into believing that he is here?’ she said

Katarina was about to fly to sky again but Sina tries to grab her but she missed. So she shouted toward the strongest woman in the world

‘Don’t do that!’ And Katarina stop in her track.

‘Don’t do what?’ She said a bit challenging. Since she had gained the title the strongest woman in the world, there isn’t anyone that could tell her what she could and could not do

Sina sighed and her eyes looking at Katarina was full of pity

‘Don’t make it harder for both of you’ Katarina was silent for a while.

Boris who is inside that cage of ice block also had become silent when he heard that Death Monarch is not in Pandemonium.

Katarina snorted and then said

‘It is too late for that now’

‘How could it be too late?’ Sina ask

Smiling bitterly, she said

‘I have already fallen too deep’ she answers and hearing this Sina sighed.

There is silence between them.

But Katarina did not immediately fly to the sky this time.

The sound of people crying and screaming in agony in the distance could still be heard every once in a while.

They are standing on a small city that have half of its areas devastated from the battle. There is sound of explosion and the sight of half destroyed buildings and corpses on the ground.

The background is very ghastly, all showing the traces of a hard fought battle

Sina then said

‘This is not like in the past. If you go…you will not help him. Instead you will become his burden. He felt that he owes you. If anything were to happen to you, he would never forgive himself. Couldn’t you see that him directing you to here…to Pandemonium where it is now safe….is his way of taking care of you?’

Katarina snorted in derision

‘Taking care of me? The more he did things like this, the more he makes me confused’

Smiling, Sina said

‘Probably because he too is also confused. He let you go. That is the truth. But maybe he is not ready letting you go as he believes himself to be’

Katarina hearing what Sina had said, looks at Sina weirdly

‘I thought you would side with Sofia’ Katarina said.

Chuckling bitterly Sina said

‘Azief is also my friend’ Then a second later, Sina said

‘Stay here. If it’s something that Azief could not handle, then it is not something that we could handle either. If he could not handle it, you should save yourself. Don’t think about helping him. You not helping him, would be the best help for him right now. he already thinks that he owes you too much. Don’t make him owe you anything anymore. Maybe, when both of you don’t owe anything to each other anymore, then…it would be easy to forget’ Sina said.

Even she did not think that she would be consulting someone in their love life in the middle of a broken city street, on the midst of a great war between worlds.

Probably only people like Katarina, Sofia and Azief could treat world ending event as the background of their love drama

Katarina think of Sina words and then she said

‘When I think of him, my tears keep coming. And each time my heart ache. At times, I even thought I would get sick of this longing. That maybe after feeling such pain, I would then be sick of that pain and stopped loving him. I thought that is how it should be. Maybe it is like those scholars in the Order of Thinkers had said. That after the fall, it is not only our body that grows stronger, even our emotions were magnified’

She laughs a bit and then said

‘But it seems, not matter how painful the memory became, it is the truth that the pain made me remember him even more. And it slowly become a habits that sometimes even when I’m hurting, I don’t even notice it’

Sina already felt that something is going very wrong.

‘Katarina’ Sina said as she comes closer to Katarina but Katarina only smiles as she is slowly floating upward into the air

Smiling, she said to Sina

‘After I was rejected by him, everyone told me to forget him. What they didn’t know was that I did try to forget him. My brother keep telling me that he is a bad guy. I should forget him. My maidens said that he could not know what si right and wrong and choose wrongly.’ She chukels a bit and then said

‘I almost kill them out of anger. It is fine if I am the one cursing him. I don’t like any other person cursing him. Everyone told me that I should forget him’ She chuckles again, but the tone sound very helpless.

‘But I just can’t. Since I could not forget him, then why should I force myself to forget him? The more I force to forget him, the more I remember him. What business is it to other people that I love him? What business is it of Azief that I love him?’

Then chuckling Katarina said to Sina

‘You said, that the more he owes me, the more he couldn’t forget? Then let him owe more. Let him owe me so much, that he would never ever be able to forget’ she said and then with a stalwart determination, she disintegrated herself.

This action caught everyone in shock

There is no explosion or a shockwave that erupted from her disintegrating herself.

There are only some beautiful snowflakes that flies upwards into the air as one could see Katarina body slowly like a dandelion that is being blown by harsh wind, disappearing

It was something very beautiful.

The ice cage melted and Boris could see that her sister disintegrated herself. Her sister was floating in the air and her entire being is slowly turning into snowflakes that floats up to the sky.

Disintegrating herself into snows flakes and travel the whole world. That is the fastest way that she could do to travel all over the whole world.

This is one of her ability that she had realized by herself

But doing so would burn her energy faster.

Sina was shocked seeing this and she could not have expected that Katarina would do this.

‘Why?’ that is the question that come out from her mouth.
