Chapter 710: Dear god, please stop time (1) (1/2)

Midnight has passed and morning is near. Probably in a few hours, the dawn of morning will break.

But it is still dark. That is not a problem for him after all.

He could still see things very clearly. He could see what used to be a small patch of flowers around the entrance of the house is now all big and trimmed neatly.

It looks like a garden of flowers.

Azief is in front of the small house with the white picket fence. It is one of the forbidden places for people of Pandemonium.

It is not forbidden because it is dangerous. It is forbidden because there lived a person that Death Monarch cares.

And the one that resides there have been known to have precipitated the war between the World Government and Death Monarch

As such, her safety is top priority and as such the place become forbidden

Azief looks on the other side and he could spot a statue not far away from the house. It is a statue of Sofia the Divine Archer.

Sighing, he looks at the house.

The once small house is no longer small. It seems bigger than the last time. It is still a two story house but it seems bigger, and there is more life to it than before.

Probably because someone is living inside it now, he thought to himself.

A staircase leading to the second floor with an attic and a four-bedroom house, Azief thought to himself.

He then walks forward and then he knocks the door.

He did not say who he was but he doesn't think he should announce himself.

With Sofia power, she would realize it was him. And tonight, other than him, probably there is no one that dares come nears this house

If she did not want him to enter, then the door probably would never open.

Maybe he doesn't want the door to open. That would not be so bad. He then remembers what Wil said to him. What is important is not how to face her, but the important thing is to face her

The moment he thinks that, the door creak and opened by itself. Azief have a complicated expression on his face.

Sighing, he enters the room and then walk through the entrance of the house and reached the living room.

The living room is even more spacious than before and have many more accessories than what he saw previously.

There is a painting on the walls, decoration flowers around the eaves and a mistletoe on top of the door.

The door creaks open as he walks inside.

The moment he enters; he could see Sofia. He did not use his Divine Sense. He knows how she hated the feeling of being observed like that.

She is there lying on the sofa; her eyes are looking at the TV. It is probably comedy series since there is a laugh track and all.

Azief for a moment forget that he lived in a world of magic. It was like this house is separated from the absurdity of real life.

It was like the Fall never happened in this house. Azief knew he could psychoanalyze Sofia with this house but he didn't. Because he himself is not that sane

But he is not insane either. He is just…different. Maybe because he had turned into a different lifeform that there is a change or maybe this change is entirely because of the situation that molded him

Whatever the cause was, he has changed. But there is one thing that did not change even after all of these years.

He still cares about her. And he still did not forget their promise.

Azief don't know how she got a TV and how she got a channel but that is not what concerns him.

He sighed. And she remains silent even when she knows he has entered the room. He did not take another step to that sofa.

It should be a glorious homecoming. Sofia probably could see that she is the last one that Azief had visited.

While he did not spread his divine sense that did not mean she did not spread hers.

There is probably something she wanted to say about that. And Azief don't know how to answer if she is going to ask that.

So, he remains silent as he waits for her to say something. Anything.

He waited and the sound of people laughing from the television is filling the gaps of silence between them two.

Nothing moved and nothing change. But there is a tension in the room. She did not say anything so Azief stands there.
