Chapter 1070: The eye of the wanderer (1/2)
He knew from the very beginning that he is taking a risk.
He knows that he is unprepared.
But he chose that way because he believes this is the only way he could rectify what he had done wrong, save Katarina, save himself and save Earth from father invasion
He owes the world nothing.
At least, that was true in the past. What he had, he fought for. But the Multiversal Convergence…...is something that he owed the world
His actions had harmed the world.
Tens of thousands of people die because of his action. He could always justify it, saying that because of what he did, travelling to the future, he got hints on how to save the Universe
But, while the reason is logical, Azief himself could not convince himself. He could not convince himself that he did not do wrong.
So, this time.... this time, he did it not only for him, not only for the people he loved, but also…...for the people of the world
This time, he wanted to protect the world and in doing so, hoping that at least, at least this could pay even a bit of that debt he had incurred.
This is the first time he was so desperate to become stronger, so desperate that he become anxious, and he did all the mistakes that he should not.
He forgotten that if he failed, he would suffer backlash that would only make him weaker and decreasing the probability of him saving Katarina and the world
He was so used to winning, so used to successes that he sometimes forgot, that failure is always an option.
Since the Fall, he had overcome adversity but when it is about breaking through to next level, even though it seems hopeless, Azief was always confident in breaking through it.
He was confident and prepared. He knew what he was getting into
This is not the case when he decided to leave Earth and seek the biggest black hole in the nearest observable black hole in the Milky Way galaxy.
It was only during his verge of failing, that his mind clear up. At that time, he knew he would waste his attempt and the end result would only weaken him.
In this state of condensing the Law Avatar into souls, one could only fail or succeed.
He is failing. In that one moment, countless of faces flashes in his mind.
But at the time, his body is about to break, his Law Avatar about to exploded out from the mass of energy that was ready to become his own personal soul, the blue crystal shines with a light that surges to all direction
It alters reality itself.
Not far away from him where the energy was condensed, there is a diamond shaped blue crystal, floating in the air.
It was this blue crystal that save him and manage to keep the condensed Law Avatars from splitting back up into Law Avatars.
That is how Azief was saved. Azief look at the blue crystal and he sighed.
'I need to learn more about the knowledge stored in this blue crystal. There is probably a treasure trove of knowledge inside all of this' And then smiling, he mutters
'the knowledge of the Etherna'
If Loki was here right now, he would probably hail this as the turning point from his timeline.
There were many changes that had happened since Loki had interfered in many things. But still, a lot of the times, events happened the way it had happened before.
Some of these events come forward in time and is earlier than expected but it did not change the event itself.
But this? A blue crystal containing the knowledge of the Etherna?
To the best of Loki knowledge, the Death God had never had such thing.
Of course, Azief the Death God had extensive knowledge of the Etherna but that is knowledge he had discover as he journeys all over the Omniverse.
It is not something that he got from some blue crystal.
That is because Azief did not walk the path of Perfection in the past and he was not that entangled with the Ethenra….at least in the beginning.
The connection he had with the Etherna is from his rings.
Unlike now, where he saw the gate, shown visions of the Etherna, his main resource of gathering knowledge of Etherna come from his research of the rings that brought him to the most desolate part of the Omniverse where he had learned a very shocking truth and why Earth Prime is the chosen place for the Final Battle
But in this timeline, Azief had deepened that connection, even though he was unaware of it.
