A streak of hot golden light splits the sky and thunderstorm ravages the nations as tornadoes, and the winds seems to go crazy.
The winds is devouring anything on its path as the seas around Abidjan churns and waves erratically, crashing upon the coast and ports with a mighty force, destroying all the boats and prost around it coast.
It is all because of that one single bolt of lightning shooting out from Oreki finger.
But Void, the young man that has a target on his back by many organization and factions in the world look at all of this phenomenon with apparent boredness.
It was like nothing in the world could faze him. Standing there, as the storms behind him and the winds whippings him, he radiates emptiness
And what is even more terrifying is that none of the winds, or thunder and even the rain drops falls onto him.
It was like anything that comes near him becomes Void. Void chuckles a bit and then he shouted to Oreki
'You know that won't work on me, Thunder Monarch' Void said smiling mischievously. Oreki look at that young boy and smirks.
'You know you are just an arrogant little boy that does not know the immensity of heaven and Earth. You fancy yourself a powerful reclusive expert. Truth is you fear to be compared to the great heroes on Earth. No one would acknowledge a selfish, self-serving person like you. Not even the Leagues of Freedom would accept you even amongst their eccentric members. Like Rosulka, you just wantnothing but to see the world burn'
Void eyes sharpened.
'Hmph' he scoffed.
Oreki furrowed his eyebrows as he review what he knows about this young man in his mind.
Codename: Void.
He is one of the mysterious reclusive experts that the World government and the Republic have been hunting for the past few years.
The World Government and the Republic have a list of reclusive experts that they tracked. They don't want another Death Monarch to appear.
While they are still at the developing stages either the Republic or the World Government would try to snatch them up by offering them with benefits or titles.
But some experts really hated being under someone else powers and they would decline.
For those people, the World Governmental and the Republic both survey them using their intelligence agency.
The Company and the Syndicate is also hunting for Void. For the World Government it is because Void attacked the Secret Sector operatives in one encounter.
For the Republic it is because he sabotages an extraction of their personnel from the hands of a rival warlord in Benin.
The Syndicate on the other hand had one of their Dark Auction in the underbelly of Paraguay being robbed by Void.
Oreki don't know if the feared Sasha of the Nightingale leader of the Shadow Guards of Pandemonium knew of Void or she knew and decided to not do anything.
It doesn't seem Void did anything to harm the interest of Pandemonium.
Void is pretty secretive.
No one knows where his base is and what his objective is.
His face could be deduced by using face reconstructing analysis but in this new world changing faces is as easy as changing clothes.
Oreki should know. Of all people, the many times he had to deal with the Trickster is probably trumps any other organizations.
After the initial clashes amidst the heavy rain and thundering lightning Oreki knows that trying to defeat Void with one finger isn't possible.
After all he is not here with his True Body.
Even if he is….he is not sure he could beat this young man easily.
Then knowing this won't work Oreki dashed forward
HYARGH!
BOOM!
The shockwaves spreads out as they collided against each other, ,making the space around them to be devoid of water falling as the rain drops were electrified and condenses into gas.
'This is what I am talking about, Thunder Monarch. Hahaha' Void was laughing
And they begin fighting merely by using physical prowess.
Thunder is one of the most powerful elements and could be used to destroy.
The dark spheres that slowly multiply near Void is quickly being shot down by One Finger Lightning Shot.
It is a technique Oreki developed when he was studying to master the Nine Thunder body Refinement method.
They clashed with each other and Void punches toward Oreki face. Oreki dodges to the left as he punches toward Void, cracking the space around them
'Hahaha' Void laughed as he flicks one of his fingers creating a mini black rip as the force of Oreki punch was neutralized
That force however causes a small mountain in Lesoto to crack. That fore of Oreki might was transported a hundreds of kilometers away into a different nation.
Oreki clicks his tongue as his eyes grew determined
Oreki opens his eyes wide and thunderous sound exploded from his movement of even moving his fingers.
Thunder energy fills the entire sky as a small bolt of thunder shoot out from his eyes threatening to burn Void into a cinder.
He smirks
Void only waves his hand as that lightning bolt was neutralized.
Oreki smiles
This was Oreki objective as he movies with a fast speed akin of lightning and appears just a few inches from Void.
'Take this!' he releases his punch back by his physical prowess. The wind around him were electrified and turns into an ionic wind.
Since Void just use his Void power to deconstruct Oreki lightning he had not enough time to produce another attack to neutralize Oreki punch
Not to mention Oreki now slowly understanding what Void power does to people.
BOOM
The punch connected as Void was thrown back to the ground causing the entire area where he falls down to district and started to dematerialize.
'Heh' Oreki scoffed as he dashed forward, his entire body exploding with golden lightning as the sound of thunders roars behind him.
The moment his feet kick the ground to dash forward, the ground exploded into bits each one were filled with lightning essence.
Oreki did not relent and he would not give Void a chance to get up as he rushed but it was then he realize that his body is slowly disintegrating even as he dashed forward
Then he realizes it. He was just a few inches from Void but he couldn't take another step forward as his face fell down onto the wet muddy ground
His legs have disintegrated
He looks up at Void from his vantage point and shows a bitter smile
'When did you notice it?' Oreki ask
'From the very beginning' Oreki laughed a little. For other people that could hear their conversation they might be confused.
What did Oreki means by telling that Void notices something? What did Void notice and why is it important?
Then gritting his teeth, Oreki look at Void and said
'You win this time Void. If you dare, you wait here until my true body is finished with my matters. We'll see whether you will win once again.'
Void only smirks and then he chuckles
'Oreki…you and the World Government has never been known to play fair. I have no intention to become a fool by believing your words. Goodbye. See you later' he said before he runs off from the slowly destabilized city.
The fight between them has caused the space and gravity around here to go into chaos.
Oreki could slowly feel the pain that is slowly coursing all over his body like ants eating his flesh.
His body is slowly being devoured by the Void energy that is ravaging his Thunder Clone.
Oreki look toward the back of Void and his eye shows ferociousness.
You just wait. He said to himself as he succumbed to the pain and his body exploded into million arcs of electricity that snakes all over the entire Cote D'ivoire.
He closed his eyes and then opening his eyes again, he was back.
And then he was at Hawaii again. He gritted his teeth but he controls his emotions.
'She was caged and sealed in the Dark Universe having to suffer thousands of difficulties and tortured by Tribulation Lightning every day. Imagine her frustration and despair of being tortured for something she did not know. She did not remember what she did and so she must felt unfair. Why is she the one being punished? For what sins? Who is she? What did she do to warrant such treatment? Imagine that. That someday someone captured you and put you in a cage as you are being tortured every day for billions of years without you ever knowing the reason? Imagine that anger. Imagine what you must have been feeling?'
Sith'lenor said and Oreki could barely hear it before he gains back his calm. Dying….even a clone put him at a disadvantage and considerable pain to his psyche.
But then he smiles and calms himself down. Oreki notices that the Death Monarch is looking at him
He heard until the end that the bait should be the All Source. After that many things were discussed.
One of the discussions is about where the Orvanian would stay, what the Three Great Powers should tell their people, what should be revealed to the world and what shouldn't be told and many other concerns.
He excuses himself as he went out form the bunker area. No one accompanied him and he dismissed his guards.
Probably because it is pointless.
Oreki is one of the strongest people in the world. Other than Death Monarch, Hikigaya, Raymond nod Katarina there were not many people that could bring him down.
He went to the beaches. The Fall might have transformed the world, but the beaches of Hawaii is still beautiful.
Probably it is even more beautiful than before since there is no longer trash anywhere in the beaches.
It is empty nowadays. With sea monsters and beast roaming if you are not strong you could not go to the beaches.
Only people like him could stroll around the shore and beaches without worrying about being swallowed by some large beast.
A few large creatures could be seen under the water. Oreki only needs to emanate his aura to causes all those creatures to quickly run away.
As he walks along the beaches, he sighs. By now, Hirate must have heard the news. It is not a big battle and the Company would have cleaned it all by now.
Void has an ability that is quite convenient for the World Government but he also have a potential to become a threat to the World Government.
Void has the potential to become the next Death Monarch.
That is the conclusion of the Quorum investigation. One Death Monarch is headache enough. Two of them?
That would break the already slowly balancing influence in the world right now.
If Void really becomes an existence like Death Monarch then the conflict between these two powerhouses would cause great damage to the world.
If Void could be controlled then it is fine.
But….he couldn't.
And he might even be more dangerous than Death Monarch. At least the Death Monarch has some principles. He has his own belief and his own reason for doing things he did.
Void is not.
He sighed and muttered
'Better the Devil we know' He smirks.
By now, some people are already heading back. Boris and Jean is already heading back, their battleship flies through the clouds to Moscow
He sighed again, long drawn out sigh. Today…would be the day they would never forget in their life.
What they learned today probably changed them all as they now have a different outlook when looking at the skies above.
And he wonders about Death Monarch. He did not seem surprised about Orvanians or Orvan or the mention of the many races from Sith'venar mouth.
It makes Oreki felt that the Death Monarch is looking something far beyond this world. Probably that is how he became that strong.
Then he thinks about what happens in Cote d'ivoire
As Oreki thinks of his battle with Void , he slowly understand what power that young man possess and why he so easily neutralize all of the agents they sent to him.
Then Oreki saw it. A purple butterfly is flapping its wing approaching Oreki. Oreki eyebrows frowned.
He looks at the butterfly and said
'I don't like this tricks of your Hirate' he squinted his eyes and a spark of lightning flew from his pupils and shot toward the butterfly.
The butterfly exploded into purple dust, the effervesce of the light was dazzling and brilliant.
And a message entered into his mind. And Oreki eyes widened after hearing the message.
Then he chuckles
'This would be startling news'
After the meeting in Hawaii, there was a shocking development. The first news is the encounter with an alien civilization that did not mean any harm toward Earth.
Most regions under the World Government and the Republic got the news fast.
That was the first shocking news that shakes the world.
The second was that two of the most influential person in the world, The Death Monarch and the Mind Master seems to be discussing something in the Centre Palace of Pandemonium.
This is big because this is the first formal meeting between these two great men, each one controlling a powerful faction that dictates the world events.
Whatever the result of their conversation might change the political structure of the world. People also fears that this is the Death Monarch trying to settle score, finishing what he didn't finish when he was in the Island of Peace.
Which means, there could be another war on the horizons.
Or it could be an effort of reconciliation between the two men, leading to a great alliance which will change the geopolitical landscape of the world with the Three Great Powers probably breaking up.
The Republic would surely not stand the World Government and Pandemonium allying together.
Commentators in coffee houses, taverns and pleasure house however do not totally agree with the assumption that Pandemonium and the World Government will ally together.
It is possible if it's Pandemonium and the Republic because of the relationship between the Ice Queen and Death Monarch but the World Government and Pandemonium?
That is truly an odd combination like trying to mix oil with water
This is the same World Government that two times tries to harm the Death Monarch friends. First, it was The Purple Speedster. Then it was the Divine Archer.
And each time it led to a war between the Death Monarch and the World Government
There is a lot of bad blood there. Many people and factions believe that the talk between the two men would lead to another war.
Many small factions is trading in weapons with Merchant of War like the League of Freedom as they are now making a killing in the criminal underworld selling weapons
But it is also true that the subject of the discussion between two men could also be about other things.
It could be any numbers of things.
And the uncertainty makes the whole world anxious. Should they prepare for war? Should they sing the songs of peace and cooperation?
So, the whole world drew their breath and prepares themselves.

A streak of hot golden light splits the sky and thunderstorm ravages the nations as tornadoes, and the winds seems to go crazy.
The winds is devouring anything on its path as the seas around Abidjan churns and waves erratically, crashing upon the coast and ports with a mighty force, destroying all the boats and prost around it coast.
It is all because of that one single bolt of lightning shooting out from Oreki finger.
But Void, the young man that has a target on his back by many organization and factions in the world look at all of this phenomenon with apparent boredness.
It was like nothing in the world could faze him. Standing there, as the storms behind him and the winds whippings him, he radiates emptiness

He said to himself as he succumbed to the pain and his body exploded into million arcs of electricity that snakes all over the entire Cote D'ivoire.He closed his eyes and then opening his eyes again, he was back.And then he was at Hawaii again. He gritted his teeth but he controls his emotions.'She was caged and sealed in the Dark Universe having to suffer thousands of difficulties and tortured by Tribulation Lightning every day. Imagine her frustration and despair of being tortured for something she did not know. She did not remember what she did and so she must felt unfair. Why is she the one being punished? For what sins? Who is she? What did she do to warrant such treatment? Imagine that. That someday someone captured you and put you in a cage as you are being tortured every day for billions of years without you ever knowing the reason? Imagine that anger. Imagine what you must have been feeling?'Sith'lenor said and Oreki could barely hear it before he gains back his calm. Dying.even a clone put him at a disadvantage and considerable pain to his psyche.But then he smiles and calms himself down. Oreki notices that the Death Monarch is looking at himHe heard until the end that the bait should be the All Source. After that many things were discussed. One of the discussions is about where the Orvanian would stay, what the Three Great Powers should tell their people, what should be revealed to the world and what shouldn't be told and many other concerns. He excuses himself as he went out form the bunker area. No one accompanied him and he dismissed his guards. Probably because it is pointless. Oreki is one of the strongest people in the world. Other than Death Monarch, Hikigaya, Raymond nod Katarina there were not many people that could bring him down.He went to the beaches. The Fall might have transformed the world, but the beaches of Hawaii is still beautiful. Probably it is even more beautiful than before since there is no longer trash anywhere in the beaches. It is empty nowadays. With sea monsters and beast roaming if you are not strong you could not go to the beaches.Only people like him could stroll around the shore and beaches without worrying about being swallowed by some large beast.A few large creatures could be seen under the water. Oreki only needs to emanate his aura to causes all those creatures to quickly run away.As he walks along the beaches, he sighs. By now, Hirate must have heard the news. It is not a big battle and the Company would have cleaned it all by now.Void has an ability that is quite convenient for the World Government but he also have a potential to become a threat to the World Government. Void has the potential to become the next Death Monarch. That is the conclusion of the Quorum investigation. One Death Monarch is headache enough. Two of them? That would break the already slowly balancing influence in the world right now. If Void really becomes an existence like Death Monarch then the conflict between these two powerhouses would cause great damage to the world.If Void could be controlled then it is fine. But.he couldn't. And he might even be more dangerous than Death Monarch. At least the Death Monarch has some principles. He has his own belief and his own reason for doing things he did.Void is not. He sighed and muttered 'Better the Devil we know' He smirks. By now, some people are already heading back. Boris and Jean is already heading back, their battleship flies through the clouds to MoscowHe sighed again, long drawn out sigh. Todaywould be the day they would never forget in their life. What they learned today probably changed them all as they now have a different outlook when looking at the skies above.And he wonders about Death Monarch. He did not seem surprised about Orvanians or Orvan or the mention of the many races from Sith'venar mouth.It makes Oreki felt that the Death Monarch is looking something far beyond this world. Probably that is how he became that strong.Then he thinks about what happens in Cote d'ivoireAs Oreki thinks of his battle with Void , he slowly understand what power that young man possess and why he so easily neutralize all of the agents they sent to him.Then Oreki saw it. A purple butterfly is flapping its wing approaching Oreki. Oreki eyebrows frowned.He looks at the butterfly and said'I don't like this tricks of your Hirate' he squinted his eyes and a spark of lightning flew from his pupils and shot toward the butterfly. The butterfly exploded into purple dust, the effervesce of the light was dazzling and brilliant.And a message entered into his mind. And Oreki eyes widened after hearing the message.Then he chuckles'This would be startling news'After the meeting in Hawaii, there was a shocking development. The first news is the encounter with an alien civilization that did not mean any harm toward Earth.Most regions under the World Government and the Republic got the news fast.That was the first shocking news that shakes the world. The second was that two of the most influential person in the world, The Death Monarch and the Mind Master seems to be discussing something in the Centre Palace of Pandemonium.This is big because this is the first formal meeting between these two great men, each one controlling a powerful faction that dictates the world events.Whatever the result of their conversation might change the political structure of the world. People also fears that this is the Death Monarch trying to settle score, finishing what he didn't finish when he was in the Island of Peace. Which means, there could be another war on the horizons.Or it could be an effort of reconciliation between the two men, leading to a great alliance which will change the geopolitical landscape of the world with the Three Great Powers probably breaking up.The Republic would surely not stand the World Government and Pandemonium allying together. Commentators in coffee houses, taverns and pleasure house however do not totally agree with the assumption that Pandemonium and the World Government will ally together.It is possible if it's Pandemonium and the Republic because of the relationship between the Ice Queen and Death Monarch but the World Government and Pandemonium?That is truly an odd combination like trying to mix oil with waterThis is the same World Government that two times tries to harm the Death Monarch friends. First, it was The Purple Speedster. Then it was the Divine Archer. And each time it led to a war between the Death Monarch and the World GovernmentThere is a lot of bad blood there. Many people and factions believe that the talk between the two men would lead to another war.Many small factions is trading in weapons with Merchant of War like the League of Freedom as they are now making a killing in the criminal underworld selling weaponsBut it is also true that the subject of the discussion between two men could also be about other things.It could be any numbers of things.And the uncertainty makes the whole world anxious. Should they prepare for war? Should they sing the songs of peace and cooperation?So, the whole world drew their breath and prepares themselves.************************************************************************
