She did not see this kind of result because she did not bother trying to see it. 

So, they look at each other like a pair of lovers that have never seen each other for years. Then the sound of the wolf from the nearby dark forest startled them both and Antonius regain his wit and then ask her

'Will you not tell me anything Erika?'

His tone is calm and his word is polite but Erika knows that Antonius is angry. He rarely calls her Erika unless he is mad.

He always calls her Great Oracle. The only time when he used the name Erika is when he is being affectionate or when he is being angry., And right now, she is sure that Antonius is feeling mad at him.

But then she calms herself down and said

Why did you return? She asked as she put down the pestle. 

Is the one you are waiting for Death Monarch?' as he waited for her answer 

He knows she is here waiting for someone. Until today, he only had guesses who she had been waiting for. 

But today, he is certain. 

He had always accompanied her. She would never have sent him away unless it is too dangerous to implicate him. And what is more dangerous than to meet with Death Monarch?

Antonius knows some things about Erika. 

But he did not know everything about her. And as such, his understanding of the situation is lacking. 

He did not know that whether she tries to run from it or not run from it. The destination is still the same. She would meet him regardless of the choice she makes.

Because Oracle are also bind by fate and destiny. They are its instrument and not a weapon to use against faith and destiny.

Erika smiles bitterly and nodded

Antonius shakes his head.

'Death Monarch is not someone we can afford to offend'

'I am just seeing his future? Why would I offend him? She smiles as she looks at him with a clear eye

Antonius snorted and said

'Don't lie to me. I think you know whatever you are about to see, it would not be something good. If its something good why were you preparing so many things? Why would you send me to the other forbidden zones of the world and told me to investigate what kind of monsters live there, what kind of factions made their base there and why did you made all of this preparation? Is it not because you know how dangerous it would be for us after? You are seeing the future of the strongest person in the world. Don't you think the other six Great powers would not be curious at all of what you see? Would they not hunt you? This is a muddy water and you are throwing yourself into it' Erika smiles like the matter is unrelated to him

This is the reason why Antonius was worried about all day. The problem is not only because of Death Monarch dangerous reputation. 

It is also because what happens after. Even if Death Monarch did not have a bad future in store for him, what happens next?

The Six Great powers would surely know that the oracle had read the future of Death Monarch


Why? Because there are a lot of surveillance on Death Monarch and investigation around Death Monarch itself.

While they could not probe the more important stuff from Death Monarch this did not mean that they would not know anything about Death Monarch. 

For someone so powerful to move around the world, it will leave a trace. And while Death Monarch could erase his trace perfectly, the same could not be said for Erika

 Erika might have some powerful protection formation but someone would know. A raven, an owl, an eye, someone would see and someone would know

(if one could not understand the reference here, the raven refers to Loki, the owl refers to the White Owl and the eye refers to the Order of Thinkers)

And when that someone sold the information in the black market, someone would buy it.

Sooner or later, the six great powers will know.

And that is when all hell will break loose for Erika. They might not be brave enough to offend Death Monarch, but the Oracle is someone they would dare to offend.

They would come down like a hawk to know the future of Death Monarch from the mouths of the Oracle.

 The Oracle have always been known to never made mistake in telling the future. 

One way or another, the future that she saw would come into fulfilment. 

There are some people that try to defy it, stave it off, or delay it but sooner or later, it will happen exactly like the vision had foretold them

He is thinking all of this. And Erika could guess what he is thinking about. But she casually asks

'Then why did you come home if you know what I am trying to do?' 

'I am trying to persuade you to abandon this matter. We don't have to do this' he said. Erika look at Antonius intently.

She smiles and then she blinks. In the time she blinks her eyes, many thoughts came to her mind. It felt like time is slowing down. 

But it is only because her mind is having a fast thought process. 

She knew Death Monarch is anxious. And she knew that it will lead him to here.

But he was not the only one that is anxious. Erika, despite the calm face she shows to Antonius, she too was anxious. Like she said to Loki, she is not that Erika. 

She is this time Erika.

She had all the memories of the other Erika without all the baggage. Without the feeling and experience.

She does not possess that veteran feeling like the time, Loki uses Giselle memories

So, she is anxious. Not every day, you have to face the fear of plucking your own eyes and giving it someone else.

Because of that she looks at him more intently. And she appreciates the scenery more.

It is not like she never look at him before. But maybe because it is nearly time, her desire to look is amplified. She had look all over the future and look at the hundreds of years that will come to pass.

Sometimes she forgot time did not move that long. 

Six years might be long for some people. But to an Oracle, six years is nothing but the moment between opening and closing one eyes.

She looks at him because she knew later, that this vision, this image of Antonius would never be the same again.

She gave her eyes to Death Monarch so that she could see through his eyes. Imagine the ability to see through the eyes of a Sovereign.

It is the very reason why nobody could find her unless he wanted to be found in that other timeline.
