Chapter 242 - HEART THAT COVETS II (1/2)

A few days after that matter in the Palace Azief is back on the cave, on to form his disk. Floating around him is five sabers.

He sighed.

'I already left orders to Xu Chong with my seal. If anything unexpected happen, he would know what to do'

Then he smiles for a bit. He remembers Katarina. He did not forget his promise. When spring comes he would come. He sent a message to her after he finished meeting the representatives.

He said after he is finished with some matter he would come to Moscow and bring her to where the flower tree blossom.

Azief has found out certain thing after he contemplated on the matter of the sabers and the difference in time. He believes that this time would be different.

He is betting on it. And he hoped his bet work out. Otherwise….there would be one girl that would be pretty pissed

He smiles a bit and shakes his head. He did not know why every time he thinks of her face he smiles.

Then come to think of it again, he probably already knew why.

He just didn't want to say it.

What do you call a relationship where both of them won't mind to die for each other? To sacrifice everything for each other?

Whatever between them…it is certainly isn't just friendship. It is more than that. But then he thinks of Sofia….and he knows his heart still beats for her.

This is why his feeling…is so conflicted. And then he remembers Azul. Azul in his life kills the woman he loved and lives a life of regret.

Regret so strong, that he embedded that regret in his saber.

Even though he is certainly one of the greatest figures in the Universe, in the end he still could not sever regret.

And Azief also deduce something else about the purpose of the sabers and that Laws that shrouded and covered him when he first enter the saber.

That illusionary world…..might not be as illusionary as he thought.

And Azief don't think he was the first one that enters the sabers. But Azief could not stop either.

After all he has already started. And it is not his style to left something unfinished. Whether it would be a failure or success…he must see it to the end.

He then sighed

'I hope I am making the right decisions and not wasting my time with this'

Putting it behind his back now, clearing his mind of any disturbing thoughts he look in front of him.

Azief look at the floating sabers and traces his finger on one of the sabers. He reads the inscription and then said

'Changes Are Common, Don't Resist It. Let Things Flow Naturally. Unlocking The Secret Of The Bodies, With One Slash Sever The Covetous Heart.'

Azief ponder these words. He traces those unintelligible character with his finger hoping it would answers

'What is the covetous heart? What did you covet?' He asks the sabers. But the sabers keep floating there, offering no answers.

Azief has begun a little bit understanding of Azul task. The words on the sabers could also be considered a hint.

He then look at his finger and pointed his index finger and a heaven sundering auras come out of his finger slashing time and intangible concept around him.

It causes the energy around him to be in chaos, in imbalance and mess up the order.

'Hmm...this finger attack is very powerful. I could disrupt energy, and even at times cut Time, Destiny and Cause and Effect…and if this is only one saber…when all six sabers abilities merged into my body….what path will I be walking?'

Azief felt a familiar aura when he was talking to the lingering will of Azul. He hoped this time he could deduce what that aura is.

He then shakes his head, takes a deep breath and then grabs the hilt of the Dragon Giving Life Saber and shouted in his mind

'REFINE!'
