The fire in the cave is brighter and warm for the cold dark night. Sina is sitting on the comforter and began lying down while reading some book.
Sometimes she whistles in glee. She has fulfilled her vengeance, as she remembers the myriad ways she use to torture those two killers that killed her friends.
Blood for blood.
On her side is a newly brewed coffee made by Azief. The aroma is even more enticing than ever. Of all his life skill coffee making rises the fastest.
On the other hand Sofia are on another tunnel of the cave looking at their result of robbing the stronghold.
Loki on the other hand is closing his eyes and lying down on his comforter.
Azief wanted the resources of the stronghold and also wanted to teach a lesson to all the people inside the stronghold.
There is no one that could help you if you do not want to change. But mostly his reason is because he needed more power.
That's it. And since the government robbed the people, he robbed the government. He would even accept being robbed by other people in this new world....if he was weaker.
He could not do nothing else. If he was weak he would have been forced to enter the stronghold.
But since he was strong the people of the stronghold treats him with respect. Power is not everything.
True….but it is something to have power.
It makes life easier...and livable. Living as a coward can work. Mostly it work in a world of before.
Because cowards….live. Cowards survive. But this new world plays by a different rules. If you are a coward…you'll die.
You will not survive.
You will be trampled to death by people who are ruthless and stronger than you. Having power does not mean you are evil.
It depends on what you use the power for.
And Azief is intending to use the power for good. Good for him and Sofia. If that is not a noble intention Azief don't know what would constitute a noble intention.
He is not some savior or a messiah figure, to save everyone that he meets. But those he has promised to protect, he would try his damndest to do it.
Why? Because a man could not fight the world alone, could not survive alone despite what movies or books try to tell you, being a lone wolf leads you dying alone.
It looks cool. It feels cool being the lone wolf, but it only decreases your chance of surviving. The caveman survives because they move in group.
He is not saying that people in that group didn't die, but in the end some of them survive. Numbers matters.
The stronghold has a warehouse full of treasures taken from the people and the people were meek as a sheep, letting themselves fooled by the promise of security.
If by robbing them he could get profit and give them a wakeup call, then that's killing two birds with one stone.
Come to think of it, I'm a pretty nice guy he thought inwardly. If Hatta and Hamad could hear his thought, they would surely slap their own faces.
He is a nice guy? Robbing a stronghold of all their riches and he is the good guy? When did logic turns into nonsense?
Loki was busy cataloguing their loot before he went for a nap time and then Loki gives the record of the loot to Azief.
Azief and Sofia both check the result. Azief was grinning from ear to ear while Sofia was dumbfounded.
Gold. 60 thousand. Pillar forming pills 45. Skill Points Pill.127.EXP Pills. 315.
'We struck gold!' Sofia said. Azief could not stop smiling. He rarely smiles but seeing the numbers he could even revert back to his character.
Then he thinks again about how this was achieved. This Loki is probably the most useful person in the world.
He could turn invisible, undetected by anything, could transform his face and has a book that list earth shaking weapons.
Having him alone is equal to having an army. If he is my enemy I would shudder to think the measures I have to use to protect myself.
It's like having a spy that would never fail and a manual to nuclear weapons
'I will distribute these loots? Any objection?' Azief declared then he looks around
'No objection.' Sofia also agrees.
'The pillar forming pills will be distributed as follows. 15 to me 15 to Sofia 15 to Loki. Skill Points pill will be divided as follows. 41 for me, 41 for Sofia 45 for Loki.'
Loki was already getting up at this point when he was being woken up by Sina and Loki was about to say something but Azief gesture for him not to speak so he stays his tongue.
'For the EXP pill it will be divided 50 each.'
'Is everyone satisfied?' Sofia and Loki nodded.
'Then let us all improve our power for this moment. I will be in my tunnel if anyone needs anything' Sofia nodded and disappear.
Loki was about to go when Azief said
'Wait!'
'Yes?'
'You will clean up the bodies?'
'Of course. Hehehe' he chuckles a bit
Then before he could go Azief ask again.
'Is that how you got Sina loyalty? By getting her, her revenge? I've seen what is done towards them. It was not pretty. Sofia almost puked and that saying something.'
Loki then breaks into a smile.
'A deal is a deal. I made a deal with her. And I always fulfill my deals. The deal was, if I get her those two people, she will join me in my endeavor.'
'And you use my plans to not only catch the two people I sense in the woods but also to fulfill your deal? That is pretty cunning. Almost like a trickster.' Hearing this Loki smiles and he repeated back the words of Azief , in a whisper.
'Irony abounds when you know the future.' That is what Azief once said to him a long time from now.
Azief did not hear it. But Loki then explains.
'You said to me, to bring those two people to the cave. I ask you why? You reply, you want to know the true reason they kill the people in that field. I agreed with that course of action.'
'But you didn't-' Azief was about to protest but loki quickly cut off his words.
'But I did. You said you wanted to know the true reason they kill people in that field right? You didn't say anything about needing them alive.'
And Loki smiles with a smile that is full of mischief.
Azief smiles.
'So, technicality?'
Loki just smiles.
'You did just say, I'm a trickster.' He said.
'It's not my fault you were not specific.' Loki added
'So, you brought them here, and serve them on a silver platter to Sina so that she would owe you. But for what reason?'
'I tell you already didn't I? That we nee-'
'I don't believe that, Loki. There is some personal stakes at play here. This is not about some Invasion that is going to happen or about humanity no matter how much you want me to believe that.'
'How do you know?' He said and Loki said this with a mocking tone
'I see it in your eyes.'
'What do you see?'
And Azief come closer as he stares at those blue eyes of Loki and he said with a smirk
'Sorrow. Like an eye of a man who has live for too long and experienced so much, that he is already tired.'
'Hmph' Loki scoffed.
'Mind games. And Cryptic as ever' and then he almost closes his own mouth.
'As ever?' Azief heard that and the choice of words puzzles him but he chalks it up to confusion.
'Is there nothing else?'
Azief closes his eyes and then opening it back he said
'No. We're done. Meet you in the morning.' Saying this Loki disappears to another tunnel, leaving Azief with his pills.

This is the current status of Azief. Looking at it he is satisfied especially his high tier level skill.
SHADOW MANIPULATION HIGH TIER LEVEL 20
ENABLE THE USER TO USE TO SHAPE THE SHADOWS, TO ASSIST THE USER BY GATHERING THINGS AND CAN USE THE SHADOWS TO INTERACT WITH THE SHADOWS SURROUNDING. COULD MANIPULATE THE SHADOWS TO GO OUTSIDE AS THE USERS EYE. COULD SEPARATE THE USER SHADOW AND CAN GIVE THEM AN ORDER. LAST FOR AN HOUR. THE SHADOW ACTS AS A SECOND LIFE.
This is one of the skills he really wanted to manipulate. To act a second life and could also act as his second eye.
In darkness, his shadow would pretty much be undetected. And since it didn't emits any aura, his shadows could also be used as a reconnaissance tool.
But Azief is not done.
He wanted to break that barrier finally. The barrier of level 40. Loki had said to him that it is best to break to level 40 when he has ten pillars and have one of those pillars has supreme pillars.
He has supreme pillars of strength and that gives him the strength that could destroy the wooden stronghold like he is the waves that envelopes sand castles.
Loki warned that when reaching level 40 the status windows would change in a way that is not really familiar and the pillars will no longer exist.
Bringing some pills from his bag of holdings he stared at it. 50exp pills is enough for him to break through the next level since he is already feeling he is in a verge of leveling up.
But then he bring out a seven colored pills that was made by Sina. The ingredients includes the skill book.
Sina made a lot or him, Loki and Sofia.
Azief looks at the direction of Sina and shakes his head. Sina is an Op cheat character.
Though not for herself but for others. She could create pills that could turns even the weakest person to a strong person but yet she could not use it for herself.
She is the most OP support character Azief has ever hand the pleasure of encountering.
The seven coloured pills are called the Condensing Pillars Rainbow Pills. Loki said that when leveling to level 40, the pillars will condense and melded into a spherical orb and the quality of the orb depends on its color.
White, grey, red, brown, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, violet and golden violet.
Each color represents the quality and innate power that one would have. The strongest is the golden violet orb that would unconditionally oppress every single pillar and even orbs.
The orbs will also contain the power of all the pillars.
The reason why it needs a supreme pillar is to make sure the condensing is stabilized after the leveling.
There is also another pill that was given to him which is the Eleven Colors Pills that is able to give an essence of every colours to the orbs and Stabilizing Condensing Pills.
And another golden pills that belongs to Loki. Loki said this one he found in an ancient ruin in Norway and decided to give it to him to make sure that he would condense the pillars to one of the top tier orbs.
Azief look again at Sina and sighed.
And then he looked at Loki. Loki is really is his lucky person. First, he managed to rob the stronghold, now he brought this useful person to his side.
Having Sina it's like he has the perfect teams. Long range Sofia. Espionage and surveillance, Loki. He takes the role of the tanker. Sina is the ultimate support character.
Then sitting on the ground he then put all the 50 EXP pills inside his mouth and crunch it like he is eating cereal.
Then suddenly a notification sounded out in front of him
[UNLOCKED EXPLOSIVE SECTION IN THE WORLD ORB SHOP]

INCREASED CHANCES FOR MONSTERS TO DROP LOOT FOR ONE WEEK
THE SHADOW LORD ITEM AS IT IS A UNIQUE CLASS ITEMS WILL NOW ENGAGE IN FUSION WITH THE OWNER WILL. ABILITIES NOW INCLUDE APPEARING AT WILL AND GROW TOGETHER WITH THE OWNER STRENGTH.
Then as this was explained Azief could see in his status windows that his items now disappear from the windows and he could feel that he gain full control of all the shadow lord items.
He could also feel that the power of the items complemented him while he strengthens the items.
Then another notification sounded out.
[THE PILLARS WILL BEGIN CONDESING NOW. WILL YOU REPRESS THE EVOLUTION?]
And Azief answered No in his mind and then he was there again, in his consciousness, looking at his 10 pillars each one with a different height.
He was looking at his Supreme Pillar of strength.
Then as he looked at it, the pillars first cracked. Then slowly it become more cracked and then the sound of rumbling could be heard
A six storied high pillar of strength then melted under the pressure of Azief leveling up. As it melted it become a puddle of liquid, a vast amount of liquid that floats in the air and then his consciousness morphs into a desert.
In this sandy desert with no water the liquid slowly descend from the sky and occupied an area and a lake was formed because of the amount of liquid after the pillars melted.
Looking up Azief could see pillars in the sky but then he feels rain. This rain is actually his pillars melted and turns into the same kind of liquid like his supreme pillar of strength.
Then his agility pillars, then stamina, then endurance then all of his pillars melted.
The rains become harder and the area around the dry desert becomes damp and there is a sign of life that is about to erupted out from the sands.
The rain lasted for hours and then when it stopped raining, the liquid moves by itself to the lake.
They all combined with the water in the lake until it became a huge lake, a lake with colors like rainbow, shining and glowing.
Then with the will of his mind, the lake began to evaporate and slowly it rises up in the air and began condensing itself to an orb in the air.
First the orb was white, pure like snow. Slowly it becomes grey as it rotated faster and wind whipping his face.
He is in his own consciousness watching all of this happens.
To him it has been hours since he saw his pillars melting, experiencing rain in his desert consciousness and then looking at the lake condensing in the air, but on the outside world, it has not even been one seconds since he closes his eyes.
The Supreme Pillars that Azief has is stabilizing the colours as the grey become more and more prominent until the orb rotates again this time with greater rotation power and the orb slowly turning red.
Malevolent pressure intimidates Azief whole being as he felt that his mind is being taxed.
Then he was assailed with the images of death and gore, he could see countless slaughtering of zombies and he could feel killing intent that roils and bubbles inside him like a boiling pot that is about to explode.
All of these images were his memories when he killed the zombies and monster and it was all condensed in the orbs, all these negative emotions.
He could feel fear. Suffering. Uncertainty. Darkness. Despair...but it was the pain that overwhelms him.
All that pain, and suffering he kept inside exploded out and was condensed in the orb. He screamed inside his mind while holding his head.
Gritting his teeth, his vein on his head almost exploded…but he didn't want to stop here.
Is this his limit? Red orb?
'No!!' He yelled defiantly. He could go higher! He could push more of his limit. On the outside world his mouth was bleeding because the intense pressure he exerted gritting his teeth.
On the outside world, he was bleeding, sweating, trembling and he then swallowed the Stabilizing Condensing Pills and he could feel his mind at ease, as slowly the images began to dissipate and his breathing relaxed as the orb once again rotated and the colours of the orb turns into brown and Azief could feel that connection with the energy deep under the earth as the brown colured signify his connection with the earth elements.
The desert then sprouted some plants on the ground.
Then pushing himself again, the orb rotates again this time the orb is the size of football.
From brown it turned into orange and the pressure enveloping him becomes heavier as he could feel like his mind is being assailed by some invisible force.
He could feel his connection with the energy of the earth strengthened and then he quickly swallowed Condensing Pillars Rainbows Pill since he couldn't endure it any longer.
Without warning the orb suddenly turned its colour yellow and it was like his body becomes strengthened.
On the outside world his body glowed with yellow aura as the cave was being illuminated with the light coming out of his body.
Loki looking at this phenomenon smiles.
The fact that Sina OP cheats skills is one thing that he always knows in the future. Looking at Sina, he was thankful that she is on their side this time instead of against them.
In the future, she was the ultimate weapon of the World Government.
If not for the reason that he was a Sovereign in the future, he would have to admit that having her as enemies is a surefire way to live a short life.
She might not be able to kill you but she could create an army of high leveler to chase you around the world.
Before he became a Sovereign, Loki has always stay out any business regarding the Genius Alchemist Sina.
Thinking about it, Azief once predicted that he would one day join hands with Sina. At the time he heard that he laughs.
Who would have thought? Then he focused his eyes back at Azief.
In Azief consciousness, the orbs started turning green as Azief slowly feels the connection with nature, feeling the calming energy, the soothing aura washes over him like the spring breeze.
The plants multiplied in the desert. The orb rotates again.
Slowly, it turns blue. This time the Orb started rotating slowly and slowly as it began to show indication that it will stop.
But…..Azief forces himself again and this time in the real world, his bone was broken from the inside like some invincible force is pressuring him and he coughed up blood but he did not stop.
This is the critical point!
He has already eaten the Condensing pillars Rainbow Pill which elevated his orb to one color grade and now he then put the Eleven Colors pills as all eleven colours liquid shot out to the orb and stabilizes itself and give him that needed boost to push one more time.
His orb suddenly turned cyan and then blue as he felt the element of water inside him, feeling like he could the majestic power of the ocean.
In the desert suddenly water sprung out deep from the desert and as it sprung out, every droplet of water created plants and the soil hardens as grass suddenly grow with accelerated speed.
The dry desert slowly turning into a plain of green grass as rivers was formed and lake pooling up.
Azief could feel his vitality increasing at a fast rate; he could feel the majesties of life. His body once again undergoes another transformation.
He did not notice it, and others in the cave didn't notice it either but when he reached cyan color grade orb inside his consciousness, his body emitted the oppression of Laws of the Elements.
While other could not sense it, the beast nearby sense it.
Loki senses it.
And he smirked.
In the future, the Prince once told him that the first time he condensed his pillars he reached the brown color grade and even that makes him powerful enough to reign supreme in Malaysia.
But comparing him to Oreki who reaches blue grade or Katarina which reaches violet, he was nothing and gets oppressed in the World Government first meeting.
Loki however has another plan for Azief future.
He needs to be stronger and then as he thought of this he looks at Sofia and smiles bitter smiles.
Will the prophecy still stands even after I did this? Looking at Sofia and Azief, he felt like he is looking at a story he already knows.
Azief on the other hand, in his consciousness felt the pressure again, this time more powerful than before and the wild winds before that accompany the orb each time it rotates to ch
The fire in the cave is brighter and warm for the cold dark night. Sina is sitting on the comforter and began lying down while reading some book.
Sometimes she whistles in glee. She has fulfilled her vengeance, as she remembers the myriad ways she use to torture those two killers that killed her friends.
Blood for blood.
On her side is a newly brewed coffee made by Azief. The aroma is even more enticing than ever. Of all his life skill coffee making rises the fastest.
On the other hand Sofia are on another tunnel of the cave looking at their result of robbing the stronghold.
Loki on the other hand is closing his eyes and lying down on his comforter.
Azief wanted the resources of the stronghold and also wanted to teach a lesson to all the people inside the stronghold.
There is no one that could help you if you do not want to change. But mostly his reason is because he needed more power.
That's it. And since the government robbed the people, he robbed the government. He would even accept being robbed by other people in this new world....if he was weaker.
He could not do nothing else. If he was weak he would have been forced to enter the stronghold.
But since he was strong the people of the stronghold treats him with respect. Power is not everything.
True….but it is something to have power.
It makes life easier...and livable. Living as a coward can work. Mostly it work in a world of before.
Because cowards….live. Cowards survive. But this new world plays by a different rules. If you are a coward…you'll die.
You will not survive.
You will be trampled to death by people who are ruthless and stronger than you. Having power does not mean you are evil.
It depends on what you use the power for.
And Azief is intending to use the power for good. Good for him and Sofia. If that is not a noble intention Azief don't know what would constitute a noble intention.
He is not some savior or a messiah figure, to save everyone that he meets. But those he has promised to protect, he would try his damndest to do it.
Why? Because a man could not fight the world alone, could not survive alone despite what movies or books try to tell you, being a lone wolf leads you dying alone.
It looks cool. It feels cool being the lone wolf, but it only decreases your chance of surviving. The caveman survives because they move in group.
He is not saying that people in that group didn't die, but in the end some of them survive. Numbers matters.

Loki was busy cataloguing their loot before he went for a nap time and then Loki gives the record of the loot to Azief.
Azief and Sofia both check the result. Azief was grinning from ear to ear while Sofia was dumbfounded.
Gold. 60 thousand. Pillar forming pills 45. Skill Points Pill.127.EXP Pills. 315.
'We struck gold!' Sofia said. Azief could not stop smiling. He rarely smiles but seeing the numbers he could even revert back to his character.
Then he thinks again about how this was achieved. This Loki is probably the most useful person in the world.
He could turn invisible, undetected by anything, could transform his face and has a book that list earth shaking weapons.
Having him alone is equal to having an army. If he is my enemy I would shudder to think the measures I have to use to protect myself.

'I will distribute these loots? Any objection?' Azief declared then he looks around
'No objection.' Sofia also agrees.
'The pillar forming pills will be distributed as follows. 15 to me 15 to Sofia 15 to Loki. Skill Points pill will be divided as follows. 41 for me, 41 for Sofia 45 for Loki.'
Loki was already getting up at this point when he was being woken up by Sina and Loki was about to say something but Azief gesture for him not to speak so he stays his tongue.
'For the EXP pill it will be divided 50 each.'
'Is everyone satisfied?' Sofia and Loki nodded.
'Then let us all improve our power for this moment. I will be in my tunnel if anyone needs anything' Sofia nodded and disappear.
Loki was about to go when Azief said
'Wait!'
'Yes?'
'You will clean up the bodies?'
'Of course. Hehehe' he chuckles a bit
Then before he could go Azief ask again.
'Is that how you got Sina loyalty? By getting her, her revenge? I've seen what is done towards them. It was not pretty. Sofia almost puked and that saying something.'
Loki then breaks into a smile.
'A deal is a deal. I made a deal with her. And I always fulfill my deals. The deal was, if I get her those two people, she will join me in my endeavor.'
'And you use my plans to not only catch the two people I sense in the woods but also to fulfill your deal? That is pretty cunning. Almost like a trickster.' Hearing this Loki smiles and he repeated back the words of Azief , in a whisper.

'But I did. You said you wanted to know the true reason they kill people in that field right? You didn't say anything about needing them alive.'
And Loki smiles with a smile that is full of mischief.
Azief smiles.
'So, technicality?'
Loki just smiles.
'You did just say, I'm a trickster.' He said.
'It's not my fault you were not specific.' Loki added
'So, you brought them here, and serve them on a silver platter to Sina so that she would owe you. But for what reason?'
'I tell you already didn't I? That we nee-'
'I don't believe that, Loki. There is some personal stakes at play here. This is not about some Invasion that is going to happen or about humanity no matter how much you want me to believe that.'
'How do you know?' He said and Loki said this with a mocking tone
'I see it in your eyes.'
'What do you see?'
And Azief come closer as he stares at those blue eyes of Loki and he said with a smirk
'Sorrow. Like an eye of a man who has live for too long and experienced so much, that he is already tired.'
'Hmph' Loki scoffed.
'Mind games. And Cryptic as ever' and then he almost closes his own mouth.
'As ever?' Azief heard that and the choice of words puzzles him but he chalks it up to confusion.
'Is there nothing else?'
Azief closes his eyes and then opening it back he said
'No. We're done. Meet you in the morning.' Saying this Loki disappears to another tunnel, leaving Azief with his pills.

This is the current status of Azief. Looking at it he is satisfied especially his high tier level skill.
SHADOW MANIPULATION HIGH TIER LEVEL 20
ENABLE THE USER TO USE TO SHAPE THE SHADOWS, TO ASSIST THE USER BY GATHERING THINGS AND CAN USE THE SHADOWS TO INTERACT WITH THE SHADOWS SURROUNDING. COULD MANIPULATE THE SHADOWS TO GO OUTSIDE AS THE USERS EYE. COULD SEPARATE THE USER SHADOW AND CAN GIVE THEM AN ORDER. LAST FOR AN HOUR. THE SHADOW ACTS AS A SECOND LIFE.
This is one of the skills he really wanted to manipulate. To act a second life and could also act as his second eye.
In darkness, his shadow would pretty much be undetected. And since it didn't emits any aura, his shadows could also be used as a reconnaissance tool.
But Azief is not done.
He wanted to break that barrier finally. The barrier of level 40. Loki had said to him that it is best to break to level 40 when he has ten pillars and have one of those pillars has supreme pillars.
He has supreme pillars of strength and that gives him the strength that could destroy the wooden stronghold like he is the waves that envelopes sand castles.
Loki warned that when reaching level 40 the status windows would change in a way that is not really familiar and the pillars will no longer exist.
Bringing some pills from his bag of holdings he stared at it. 50exp pills is enough for him to break through the next level since he is already feeling he is in a verge of leveling up.
But then he bring out a seven colored pills that was made by Sina. The ingredients includes the skill book.
Sina made a lot or him, Loki and Sofia.
Azief looks at the direction of Sina and shakes his head. Sina is an Op cheat character.
Though not for herself but for others. She could create pills that could turns even the weakest person to a strong person but yet she could not use it for herself.
She is the most OP support character Azief has ever hand the pleasure of encountering.
The seven coloured pills are called the Condensing Pillars Rainbow Pills. Loki said that when leveling to level 40, the pillars will condense and melded into a spherical orb and the quality of the orb depends on its color.
White, grey, red, brown, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, violet and golden violet.
Each color represents the quality and innate power that one would have. The strongest is the golden violet orb that would unconditionally oppress every single pillar and even orbs.
The orbs will also contain the power of all the pillars.
The reason why it needs a supreme pillar is to make sure the condensing is stabilized after the leveling.
There is also another pill that was given to him which is the Eleven Colors Pills that is able to give an essence of every colours to the orbs and Stabilizing Condensing Pills.
And another golden pills that belongs to Loki. Loki said this one he found in an ancient ruin in Norway and decided to give it to him to make sure that he would condense the pillars to one of the top tier orbs.
Azief look again at Sina and sighed.
And then he looked at Loki. Loki is really is his lucky person. First, he managed to rob the stronghold, now he brought this useful person to his side.
Having Sina it's like he has the perfect teams. Long range Sofia. Espionage and surveillance, Loki. He takes the role of the tanker. Sina is the ultimate support character.
Then sitting on the ground he then put all the 50 EXP pills inside his mouth and crunch it like he is eating cereal.
Then suddenly a notification sounded out in front of him

THE SHADOW LORD ITEM AS IT IS A UNIQUE CLASS ITEMS WILL NOW ENGAGE IN FUSION WITH THE OWNER WILL. ABILITIES NOW INCLUDE APPEARING AT WILL AND GROW TOGETHER WITH THE OWNER STRENGTH.
Then as this was explained Azief could see in his status windows that his items now disappear from the windows and he could feel that he gain full control of all the shadow lord items.
He could also feel that the power of the items complemented him while he strengthens the items.
Then another notification sounded out.
[THE PILLARS WILL BEGIN CONDESING NOW. WILL YOU REPRESS THE EVOLUTION?]
And Azief answered No in his mind and then he was there again, in his consciousness, looking at his 10 pillars each one with a different height.
He was looking at his Supreme Pillar of strength.
Then as he looked at it, the pillars first cracked. Then slowly it become more cracked and then the sound of rumbling could be heard
A six storied high pillar of strength then melted under the pressure of Azief leveling up. As it melted it become a puddle of liquid, a vast amount of liquid that floats in the air and then his consciousness morphs into a desert.
In this sandy desert with no water the liquid slowly descend from the sky and occupied an area and a lake was formed because of the amount of liquid after the pillars melted.
Looking up Azief could see pillars in the sky but then he feels rain. This rain is actually his pillars melted and turns into the same kind of liquid like his supreme pillar of strength.
Then his agility pillars, then stamina, then endurance then all of his pillars melted.
The rains become harder and the area around the dry desert becomes damp and there is a sign of life that is about to erupted out from the sands.
The rain lasted for hours and then when it stopped raining, the liquid moves by itself to the lake.
They all combined with the water in the lake until it became a huge lake, a lake with colors like rainbow, shining and glowing.
Then with the will of his mind, the lake began to evaporate and slowly it rises up in the air and began condensing itself to an orb in the air.
First the orb was white, pure like snow. Slowly it becomes grey as it rotated faster and wind whipping his face.
He is in his own consciousness watching all of this happens.
To him it has been hours since he saw his pillars melting, experiencing rain in his desert consciousness and then looking at the lake condensing in the air, but on the outside world, it has not even been one seconds since he closes his eyes.
The Supreme Pillars that Azief has is stabilizing the colours as the grey become more and more prominent until the orb rotates again this time with greater rotation power and the orb slowly turning red.
Malevolent pressure intimidates Azief whole being as he felt that his mind is being taxed.
Then he was assailed with the images of death and gore, he could see countless slaughtering of zombies and he could feel killing intent that roils and bubbles inside him like a boiling pot that is about to explode.
All of these images were his memories when he killed the zombies and monster and it was all condensed in the orbs, all these negative emotions.
He could feel fear. Suffering. Uncertainty. Darkness. Despair...but it was the pain that overwhelms him.
All that pain, and suffering he kept inside exploded out and was condensed in the orb. He screamed inside his mind while holding his head.
Gritting his teeth, his vein on his head almost exploded…but he didn't want to stop here.
Is this his limit? Red orb?
'No!!' He yelled defiantly. He could go higher! He could push more of his limit. On the outside world his mouth was bleeding because the intense pressure he exerted gritting his teeth.
On the outside world, he was bleeding, sweating, trembling and he then swallowed the Stabilizing Condensing Pills and he could feel his mind at ease, as slowly the images began to dissipate and his breathing relaxed as the orb once again rotated and the colours of the orb turns into brown and Azief could feel that connection with the energy deep under the earth as the brown colured signify his connection with the earth elements.
The desert then sprouted some plants on the ground.
Then pushing himself again, the orb rotates again this time the orb is the size of football.
From brown it turned into orange and the pressure enveloping him becomes heavier as he could feel like his mind is being assailed by some invisible force.
He could feel his connection with the energy of the earth strengthened and then he quickly swallowed Condensing Pillars Rainbows Pill since he couldn't endure it any longer.
Without warning the orb suddenly turned its colour yellow and it was like his body becomes strengthened.
On the outside world his body glowed with yellow aura as the cave was being illuminated with the light coming out of his body.
Loki looking at this phenomenon smiles.
The fact that Sina OP cheats skills is one thing that he always knows in the future. Looking at Sina, he was thankful that she is on their side this time instead of against them.
In the future, she was the ultimate weapon of the World Government.
If not for the reason that he was a Sovereign in the future, he would have to admit that having her as enemies is a surefire way to live a short life.
She might not be able to kill you but she could create an army of high leveler to chase you around the world.
Before he became a Sovereign, Loki has always stay out any business regarding the Genius Alchemist Sina.
Thinking about it, Azief once predicted that he would one day join hands with Sina. At the time he heard that he laughs.
Who would have thought? Then he focused his eyes back at Azief.
In Azief consciousness, the orbs started turning green as Azief slowly feels the connection with nature, feeling the calming energy, the soothing aura washes over him like the spring breeze.
The plants multiplied in the desert. The orb rotates again.
Slowly, it turns blue. This time the Orb started rotating slowly and slowly as it began to show indication that it will stop.
But…..Azief forces himself again and this time in the real world, his bone was broken from the inside like some invincible force is pressuring him and he coughed up blood but he did not stop.
This is the critical point!
He has already eaten the Condensing pillars Rainbow Pill which elevated his orb to one color grade and now he then put the Eleven Colors pills as all eleven colours liquid shot out to the orb and stabilizes itself and give him that needed boost to push one more time.
His orb suddenly turned cyan and then blue as he felt the element of water inside him, feeling like he could the majestic power of the ocean.
In the desert suddenly water sprung out deep from the desert and as it sprung out, every droplet of water created plants and the soil hardens as grass suddenly grow with accelerated speed.
The dry desert slowly turning into a plain of green grass as rivers was formed and lake pooling up.
Azief could feel his vitality increasing at a fast rate; he could feel the majesties of life. His body once again undergoes another transformation.
He did not notice it, and others in the cave didn't notice it either but when he reached cyan color grade orb inside his consciousness, his body emitted the oppression of Laws of the Elements.
While other could not sense it, the beast nearby sense it.
Loki senses it.
And he smirked.
In the future, the Prince once told him that the first time he condensed his pillars he reached the brown color grade and even that makes him powerful enough to reign supreme in Malaysia.
But comparing him to Oreki who reaches blue grade or Katarina which reaches violet, he was nothing and gets oppressed in the World Government first meeting.
Loki however has another plan for Azief future.
He needs to be stronger and then as he thought of this he looks at Sofia and smiles bitter smiles.
Will the prophecy still stands even after I did this? Looking at Sofia and Azief, he felt like he is looking at a story he already knows.
Azief on the other hand, in his consciousness felt the pressure again, this time more powerful than before and the wild winds before that accompany the orb each time it rotates to ch
