74.12% Monarch of Darkness, Arsene / Chapter 975: Ezra - The Warning

章 975: Ezra - The Warning

Snapping my eyes open, I leap to my feet, surveying my surroundings, and summoned the Fang of Wrath, Seth, the great sword that once belonged to Father. The very sword Lucifer blessed to corrupt the minds of gods and humans alike.

Trees of evergreen stretched far as the eye could see, which wasn't far as great mist dotted my vision, ensuring I couldn't see that far. Unsure where I was, I looked down at the campfire that looked to have just gone out and frowned. The embers over the wood were still glowing, giving off a trail of smoke.

"Master!" I called out, unable to sense many things within this mist with my divine sense that seemed to be restricted. "Master, are you here?"

No response.

Lowering Seth, releasing a fit of burning anger that called for blood, my eyes narrowed. I was alone. Master wasn't here.

"Guess it's up to—"

"Father! Father! It's here! I found the redhead I'm going to marry!"

Red He— Oh my! Oh my god, it's red! I bet that'll put some fire in Master's balls. Hehe, he's been punishing me for punishing him back with Victoria. Curse my need to torment others.

"Gonry, you know how dangerous it is, coming out during the Mist,' Another voice, one that was older, remarked. "It's dangerous. Enemy Versi lives in these parts."

Aren't the Versi the original elvish people? I believe they were created by an angel whose tears fell upon the world. The first tear created the ancient World Tree, said to have stretched far into the cosmos; the second tear fell upon the pollen released by the world tree, and so the Versi was formed.

But Father had said they were so rare even before the forgotten era. Were the Versi hiding in the Guiser Planes?

Catching sight of a small boy with big blue eyes glowing through the mist. I instantly became rooted to the ground as I stared at the very Dao embedded in this child's eyes: earth, wind, fire, and water spiraled through the child's eyes.

Complete Mastery.

"There she is, Dad!"

"Oh my!" A startling voice said. "Little Gon, this one might be out of your league. Hello there, I'm Gerron Syfire. And this little guy is Gonry."

Staring at the empty void as a mysterious voice echoed, I frowned, noticing only the cute blue eye child, no more than five. Does he not have a body?

"Father! She can't see you." Little Gon shouted, puffing out his little cheeks. " You always do this! It's not hard to maintain a physical form, you know!"

"This form is way more freeing. But fine." The older voice moaned. And before my eyes, azure nodes began to congeal from the void, forming into a black hair, blue-eyed young man. "Hello." he started cuffing his hands into a little bow. "It's a pleasure to— Wait, didn't I already introduce myself?"

"You did," I said, noting the same Dao swirling through the Father's eye. "I'm Ezra. Just Ezra." I mentioned not wanting to share my family's name." Are you, by chance, also a Versi?"

"You know of us!" Gonry shouted, his little voice filled with pride.

"A little is all,' I quickly mention noticing the glint in the Father's icy blue eyes. "I—"

"Ezra!" Master's voice came as darkness swirled, flaring with an interesting power that made even me quiver materialize out of thin air as he stepped out. "Sorry about leaving you. I was visiting Victoria to notify her of the coming legion. Are—Oh," He paused, noticing the duo. " Who's this?"

"NOOOO!!!!!" Gonry cried, "is he your husband!"

"Husband! Little brat, my wife will kill you and her for saying that." Master coldly said, with daggers for eyes. " She's my knight. And who the hell are you?"

"I am to be Ezra's future husband!" Came his reply with the utmost confidence.

AAAAAAHHHH He so cute!!!

"No need for Lilith to tear your head off. I'll do it. She's mine, brat!"

"Then I challenge—"

Gerron covered his child's mouth and bowed his head, 'Lord Arsene Snow, Monarch of Darkness and Sovereign of Noctem. It's an honor to meet you."

Master shifted his gaze to Gerron, a look of amusement and intrigue present. " you know me?"

The Father nodded, cuffed his hands together, and looked up when the crest of darkness suddenly materialized within the iris. "Of course. We know when a Monarch is anointed as we are attuned with the elements. Your name rang like tolls a cycle ago and continues to ring as your darkness stretched over Iluthath."

"I see," Master said calmly. "That must be some attunement you have with nature."

"A gift from Arch-Angel Ariel upon our birth." He said, stirring my soul. It had always been a mystery on which angel it was to shed a tear. Not even Father and his massive library knew.

There were even some that believed that it was a Fallen's tear falling through the heavens as a bolt of lightning that made the Versi.

I wonder what made her cry? Meh, it doesn't matter. Screw her! Team Lucifer all the way!

"The angel who absconded with my wife. Why am I not surprised?" Master scuffed. "Well, it's nice to meet you all. I think it's the first time anyone ever congratulated me for becoming a monarch." He pointed out, turning to me with an accusing eye.

"Your not a kid, Master."

"Of course not. Kids don't bang like me!"

Goodness, how the hell can he be so shameless! Bowing my head to hide my shame, he triumphantly laughed.

"And that's how you do it, kid. Be shameless. And everything in life will go right… Don't quote me on that, by the way. There is a good chance the villagers might gather their pitchforks."

Oh, Master… Please stop talking.

Gerron coughed. "So may I ask what you're doing and where you are heading?"

"Towards the Great Basin, where the Clash of Titans occurred." He said with a smile. "They say the Lord of Orders aura was so strong it still retains the intent of these two Titans."

"It does… I've even seen a few Elder Gods die, trying to enter." Gerron warned, lifting his azure eyes to meet mine and Masters. "When one enters the Great Basin, you will bear witness to Dead Laws and Abyssal Fragments. Such a sight is sure to drive many mad, if not all."


章 976: Abyssal Fragments

Staring at the stranger and his son, who held a guarded stance the moment I appeared, I watched as they bowed, taking their leave. I still had many questions about Abyssal Fragments, but I allowed them to leave as I was sure Lily knew.

"Lily. What are dead laws and Abyssal Fragments?" I mentally inquired.

"You can destroy laws, right?" Lily carelessly asked, and I nodded.

"Sure, but they get repaired by the greater laws of the universe," I replied, drawing Ezra's attention as Lily began to speak for her to hear.

"Then you've only damaged the laws, not destroyed them. But with the Abyssal Flame, you should be able to… Nevermind that. When a Dead Law accurse, all Hell breaks out. The very Fabric of Reality as a hole begins to rebel: Up becomes down, left becomes forward, it gets all different." She said softly. " Because when you kill one Law, you kill dozens as they are usually attached to more than one."

"Dead Laws are a delicate thing, as the Greater laws can't repair them and must create new ones, which requires a price, and who do you think pays that price?" I shrugged. "The people pay. Famine, war, betrayal. Everything bad that can happen will happen. It just becomes Hell. The only upside is, of course, the Dead Laws. Shards that bleed Origin Energy. Dead Laws are a currency in Hell. And they're extremely hard to acquire. Funny story! So—"

"You're getting off track." I reminded the carefree system. "So dead Laws don't fade, but—"

"No, they fade. The Greater Laws will try to retrieve them or send some agents to pick them up. Origin Energy or Ether of Origin is the same as Chaos Drew. It's just one that comes from the Myriad Heavens, the other from the Abyss. But to use Chaos Drew, you need the Ether of Origin. So it's very beneficial to have both."

"And what about Abyssal Fragments?"

"Man, Vita will be pissed if she finds out about these Abyssal Fragments," Lily muttered faintly. " Ok, so Abyssal Fragments are… well, they are Cells of the Abyss. And it's usually where Chaos Drew comes from. Abyssal Fragments are so strong that it will take hundreds of Chaos Lords to be near one. And the stronger the Heaven, the stronger they become. Don't tell anyone, but the Shards have minds of their own. It's kind of a race of… well, fairies. I guess that's the best way to describe them."

What the Hell is going on in Iluthath? How the Hell does something like this exist? I see why Lily said she was upgrading my weapon. If such Abyssal Fragment or Chaos Weapons like the one Layla wields were used against me, my spear could be broken with a single swing.

"I guess Dead Laws are the Cells are God as well?"

"Kinda. I say cell, but that's the best I can do as your little minds can't begin to understand what they are… so I went with cells. But I feel like I should warn you. Well, maybe Ezra. But if she were to gaze upon an Abyssal Fragment or Dead Law, she'll either go mad, becoming a crazed beast for all eternity, or die. Arsene has the attunement to look, but you are just an average B."

My little knight rolled her eyes. " Whatever bitch."

"Hehe." The devious system laughed.

"So the Great Basin… Holds not just Dead Laws but an Abyssal Fragment. I wonder what Zariel did. He's the only Lord of Order I know… Unless there have been others after he left."

My eyes narrowed, and with a cold icy stare towards the north past the mist that obscured even the best of eyes, I stared at where I knew Aldrich sat… It had to be Zariel. And the Great Basin is probably where they last fought.

"The Great Basin was where everything ended."

I turned to Ezra," you ready? We'll have to walk. The mist is too dense, and I feel a...a little uncomfortable flying when Dead Laws and Abyssal Shards exist. Anything could happen.

Ezra stared. "Gerron had said that enemy Versi exists in these woods. We should keep—"

"You should keep an eye out." I teased. " I am the Lord your protecting," I just had to mention. Watching as her lips curled up in the most lovable way.

"Master~" She moanfully sang. "Are you bullying me?"

"Always. Just be grateful I'm not giving you a spanking."

"But I wouldn't mind, you know." She replied with large wet fluffy eyes. "I…I'm down for anything." she soon whispered, leaning in so close I could feel the intensity in which she spoke.

"Hmmm. But what kind of Lord sleeps with his knight? Surely I would not stoop so low as too—"

"Enter me? Squeeze my neck as though nothing else mattered. To press your lips against me and claim all that I am?" Ezra leaned even closer, her supple lips tracing over my chest. " Come on, Master. I can see you torment yourself to get back at me. Why not cave… just this once."

I smiled and lifted her chin with my finger looking down right into her red eyes that sparkled with lust. "But you've been such a bad girl. And bad girls don't get what they want."

'Then I'll just have to steal it." She said, pulling away with a challenging grin. "Just you wait, Master. I'll have the bestest surprise for you."

"Not sure 'bestest' is even a word, but I look forward to it," I said, turning away to hide Lil Arsene, ready for battle. Throbbing with his gun ready, I could only sigh in tears. "Let's go. Northward."

"Fucking Pussy!" Lily spat. "That's some weak cheese, Arsene; this had better be worth it. Getting me all hot and bothered is a crime, you know!"

'You're a goddamn system. How is it you…."

"Bitch I'm about to have a body in a few more years. Just you wait. I'm about to pop off on your son, daughter, and Crowe. All can get it! If females can t-bag, I'd be doing just that to them!"

And just like that… I'm flaccid. Fuck.
