Lord Shadow

There is no longer any island in the sky.

But if anyone sails out from Arturia right now and geos to the open seas, they would see there is island all over the island continent, encircling the continent like a concentric wall

All of these island is arranged in a uniform manner and there is some kind of mysteries around this shape.

The heaven and earth seems to supply it with energy, the circle seems uniform from one side but seeing it from another side, it shows a different face, each angle seems to change the way you see the composition of these islands.

Drawing the energy from heaven and earth, like an energy absorbing formation, the island seems to become more mystical as second passes.

Azief had put down his hand.

Those who were looking at this could not help but be astonished

'Is it a formation?'

Some people thought and they nodded because they truly believe that this is a formation. Five layers of circle around the island city.

This is a formation!

But Azief was not done.

'This is just the beginning' he thought to himself.

Right now, he is shining golden and he was like the sun so people could not even see his face. All they could see was the bright light like he is standing if front of the sun

But if one could see his face right now, it is full of smiles. It is satisfaction. The kind of satisfaction that come after doing things arrowing to your heart

Then he rose to the sky.

With such titanic body, rising to the sky blot out the sun and his shadows covers the entire city.

Standing above the city those who look at his titanic figure floating in the sky could not help but think that if he descends down on the city right now, half the city would be demolished in an instant and the entire continent would have lost the entire southern part of the continent

Azief then opens his palm and the sea trembles again.

The act of opening the palm is like opening the world from the void, it stirs the heavenly, worldly, and cosmic energy all at the same time.

Pouring out from heaven and earth, the sky beyond the sky, and the cosmic void, the sea, the land, the skies all is affected.

The lights that embedded install toward the islands all flew back towards him.

From the bottom of the sea iron particles gathered together, coagulate and morphed and then this iron particle flew to the side of the island.

It gathers, combine, mixed with each other and then in a matter of minutes, a shocking sight appears.

A concentric design with hundreds of island and between these islands are tall iron walls.

There are large holes on the bottom of these wall to facilitate the sea water flow

But from the outside, they would see five layers of island formation encircling the island city.

And at the same time, the iron particles forms encircling wall all around the island city

BBOOOOM!

The sound signifies the completion, shockwave after shockwave blasted under the sea, the entire seabed was disturbed.

What a magnificent sight! That is what anyone would thought if they could see Arturia from the sky.

If one looks above the sky, going to space and look down, you could see a concentric circle with the island in the middle

A formation.

It is composed of thick and high steel walls that emerge from under the sea, surrounding and trapping anyone who is inside the said area

There are runes all over the steel walls and these runes was clear at first before dimming and completed merged with the wall.  There is iron cannons installed in the windows and gat at the top.

In just a few minutes, Arturia which is an open island suddenly become a fortress in the sea

But why does Death Monarch create this fortress?

Why is there a need for fortress?

Death Monarch finished doing this look at the finished creation.

Nobody could comprehend the scale of creation that Azief had done. It would take them time to see the view that he is seeing now.

He then crossed his legs in the sky and as he crossed his leg under his legs, light formed a platform.

This platform is filled with flowers and there are hundreds of images that appears in the sky

The sky and the Earth changed color and the entire sky is golden in colors, purple aura and blue aura mixed with each other both filling the sky, the rules and the laws of the world is affected.

The space above Earth is affected, the stars tremble a figure enshrouded in these three colors could be seen all over the world

The clouds churns, the sky all over the world opens up, the night give way to golden colors like it was day

Aurora like colors could be seen streaming all over the world like some kind of a river that flows endlessly in the sky, the sight is magical and enchanting

His image appeared all over the sky like he is everywhere.

This images are not real. It is not his clone. It is like the Heaven is reflecting Death Monarch image from above the sky

And his image could be seen wherever you are in the world like a mirage.

And now, another two people in the world began to become stimulated

Before, when Azief move the islands, created the formation bring rise to walls of steels all over the island, creating a fortress around the sea, the other two Divine Comprehension realm did not open their eyes.

They did not think much of it.

Because they were not alerted to it. Even when they do feel something, when they calculate the source of the disturbance, it is in Arturia. And Arturia is Death Monarch territory.

So there is no need for them to meddle in his business

However, now the Heavenly Way was disturbed, the laws of the world in disarray, an image of him reflected all over the world, like the Heaven was the mirror

Powerful Heavenly Coercion pressure the world. Death Monarch had the power of the Heavenly Will.

This is him using Heavenly Will that he possessed.

But out of one third, one belongs to Death Monarch, one belongs to the Will of the World and the last one belong to the Heavenly Will

And the Heavenly Will has always been in conflict with Death Monarch. Today, Heavenly Will is unlike the Heavenly Will before

It is not only powerful but its ability has also increased, the intelligence it had is no longer like a small child.

But what is the reason for Death Monarch to suddenly appear in such a big way, turning the world upside down

So, the other two had to make a move.

In Europe, Jean fly up to the sky, as he rises to the sky, his body exploded into a burst of brilliance, shining like the stars, around him time was under his control, to accelerate or to slow down all of it in his thoughts.

The power of time flowing all over his body, incomparably complicated, unpredictable, and extremely astonishing.

Then that small six feet figure suddenly enlarged itself, time seems to stand still all over Europe.

And another two thousand feet titan could be seen in the sky, his aura is billowing and its power protect the people of the entire European region.

The moment he appears; the image of a circle appears in the sky.

This circle at first is transparent then it appears to become more solid. This circle is empty, but then a pointer appears in the middle of the pointer.

A scepter appears in Jean hand, in the middle of the scepter is a fitly designed sandglass. The circle reminds people of a clock

The sandglass also seems to have some connection with the association one had with Time.

'The Heaven will not coerce' he spoke, his voice echoes all over Europe and his voice seems to have make the coercion stand still.

Unable to push, unable to pressure.

In a large island nation filled with fog, the Empire of Japan also felt the aura of Death Monarch, and then seeing his figure sitting on a platform of holiness, everyone knows that this has something to do with Death Monarch again.

There is a cave around the area of the coast of the Empire. The cave is referred to the people as the cave of the holy.

Because it is where the two powerful figure of Japan usually secluded themselves.

Hikigaya came out of his cave.

He looks at the sky and see Death Monarch figure and he sighed.

'You could not do thing quietly do you?' Hikigaya also does not know what Death Monarch is trying to do. But, he expected that he wanted to do something big.

If not, there is no reason to move island, created formation.

Though Hikigaya thought it would end there. Now, it is clear that the act of moving island is just the opening act

Pointing his finger to the ground a worm flew to the sky and turns into a dragon.

He then pointed his finger to the sky and the skies opened up. Hundreds of monsters come out

But these monsters are unlike any other monsters that one could see on Earth

There are one eyed monsters, a monster that wears kimono but have a cat face, large serpent, woman with an ugly face but long nails that look like swords, a child who is surrounded by gloomy aura, and kappa.

Any other people might find it hard to identify what these monsters are but for people of Japan they know what this is

Yokai! Oni!

And this many Yokai and oni together coming out in droves form the sky…. this is the Hyakki Yako, the Night Parade of One Hundred Demons

A riot in the sky, dragons coming from the ground, thousands of supernatural creatures filled the skies and some of them waited in the sky in orderly manner, some laugh and cries, rioting all over the skies, magical abilities pouring out down from the skies like fireworks.

Hikigaya smiles and as he lifted his feet, clouds appear under his feet, the clouds solidified and he flew to the sky, sitting on top of the clouds, positioning himself in front of Nurirahyon.

Nurirahyon is usually thought to lead the Hyakki Yako, a yokai that could not be caught

The Hyakki Yako is a folklore legend

But Hikigaya is a person who could turns the illusion into reality and vice versa.

He brings out the Night Parade and thousands of demons fills the sky shocking the people of the Empire of Japan.

The yokai dances and sings, drinking wine and the oni fights against each other, beating each other up, riot in the sky.

And sitting in front, sitting on the clouds, Hikigaya laughs, his laugh echoes all over the world. the powerful coercion that fills the Earth dissipated

It was like the world was separated right now. In the sky, it is the world of the demons and the ground, the mortal world.

The entire world was also shocked. But they did not have a such a guardian deity in their forces that could withstand the heavenly pressure.

They felt the heavenly pressure filling the entire world and saw that stalwart and titanic figure of Death Monarch in the sky

But before they could even make sense of it, another majestic aura appeared.

Unlike Death Monarch this aura could be felt but there is no vison of him that could be seen in the sky

The world is vast.

While not all people of the world could see that, the people of Europe could see Jean body in the sky.

He is now also sitting cross legged and under him is a river filled with colors of all kinds, and around the area of this river that seem to stretch to infinity yet also to nothing, time is distorted, space is trembling and the harmonization between the two prevent time and space from collapsing.

Those in Europe could see such sights and they prostrate themselves. Like mortals seeing a god

Everyone could feel that the pressure from the sky lightened after Jean appeared so they prostrate themselves.

The world did not know the cause and effect of the matter.

They only know that after seeing Death Monarch figure, they could feel another majestic aura fills the world.

Some people couldn't even find time to reach with all of these beings suddenly appearing together.

These existences shocked all of the world powers and the factions of the world. Even though, some people was not able to see Hikigaya and Jena figure, all people under the heavens could see Death Monarch figure all over the sky

Wherever these Divine Comprehension is, they separated the sky, and it was like under them, a different world bloomed.
