Lord Shadow

At the same time, that the World Government had received the news of Death Monarch sudden departure from Earth, Boris who was at Moscow also receive the news

It has now been an hour since Death Monarch had leave the world. And in the span of only one hour, the world seems to boiling over.

The world power all received the news. And moves are being made. Things that one did not dare to do when that dark figure sit on his throne in Pandemonium is being employed right now.

Those who looks at the sky with trepidation could now breathe a little bit easier.

The rats and the cockroaches hiding in the dark went out to feel the sun.

And while they are people who is overjoyed with this figure who gave them so much pressure departing from Earth, there are also as many people that are worried about what will happen now that he is gone.

No one knows how long he would be gone and whether he would even come back. But everyone knows "that person" would surely leave some kind of countermeasures to protect the people he loves.

The pressure then fell to the other great powers.

Boris after receiving the news was in a daze for a second. He closes his eyes and he thought of his sister.

In this world, there is not many people that he could say confidently that he loves.

But if he loves someone in this world, it is his sister.

He had protected her all of this time.

And knowing that she is getting stronger and braver, it only adds his trepidation.

Because he could no longer protects her.

He used to be able to take the beating of their father.

That is how he had protected her. He protected her innocence when his father tries to do dirty things.

He had grown big and strong because he wanted to protect his little sister. And he is merciless when it is against people who would try to harm his sister

He sighed.

half of his life is dedicated in protecting her, the only light in his life, his only family. There is scars on his back, the lashes of a belt, the proof of his protection.

But those scars slowly fade.

And in this new world, this world of gods and deities, of demons and devils, of immortal beings and mystical creature, it is his sister that had protected her.

It seems purity, innocence had some value.

What takes others years to understand, she only needed one third of that time. That is her sister.

The strongest woman in the world

It is very easy for his sister to thrive in this world. Boris doesn't know how to feel about this change of role.

They have each other back. But that was before her sister met that damn Death Monarch. He doesn't know what kind of spell Death Monarch uses to make his sister so hopelessly in love with that man.

She uses her life to protect that man. And he doesn't like that

Boris shake his head.

'I told her…. I told her not to get close with that man'

Personally before Death Monarch is entangled with his sister, he had nothing against the man. He admires people who are strong.

Because he himself is strong.

He admires people who overcame their adversity because he is also like that.

And he always like the enemy of his enemy.

When he read the report of Lord Shadow messing up World Government plan, he was very happy. However, that feeling change when Death Monarch is entangled with his sister.

Maybe, all brothers are like this.

They would never like the man that their younger sister likes.

Or maybe it is just him. he would not mind Death Monarch getting together with his sister if he was any other man.

Maybe he would still object, the obligatory hazing of his younger sister boyfriend and then he would approve.

But the man that his sister seems to love so much is the strongest person in the world. Boris could not even try to haze such a man.

That is a man whose every moves shakes the world. If one day, Death Monarch mistreated his sister, how could he seek justice?

And his sister is the strongest woman in the world.

That sound like an invincible combo.

But to Boris it sounds like an advertisement for attracting danger. If there is one thing Boris wanted for his sister, it is that his sister would live a happy and peaceful life.

And not only Death Monarch is the farthest person from the definition of safe and peaceful, he even rejected his sister.

So, he is now filled with complicated feeling that he had to rely a man that he now personally dislikes to save his sister.

He rubs his forehead with his finger, massaging his temple.

'I hope my sister trust in you is deserved' he thought to himself.

Then he reads another report.

This report also detailed possible explanation of why Death Monarch suddenly changes the schedule of his departure.

Most of the world leaders knew that Death Monarch would depart on the sixth day. That is the consensus and that is the understanding of all the great powers.

To the world, Death Monarch was in seclusion for four days before breaking out of seclusion.

Some people said that Death Monarch had break through to Essence Creation.

Some said, he did not.

But since there is only two other people in the world that could discern the state of Death Monarch true prowess and these two people did not speak a word about it, no one really knows whether Death Monarch break through to Essence Creation or he had failed in his breakthrough.

Nobody even knows whether Death Monarch went into seclusion to breakthrough to the next realm or if he just wanted to familiarize his body with his new realm.

He frowned as he reads the report. Some of the possible reason for Death Monarch sudden departure is not really something that is positive.

'This is making me worried' Right now, what Death Monarch desire is the same as Boris. They wanted Katarina to be safe.

If there is one thing that connects these two men, it is their love for Katarina

Boris is even more anxious than the other world leaders when he heard Death Monarch sudden departure

Death Monarch did not even tell him anything. He does not understand why Death Monarch did not tell him anything and suddenly goes to the Seresian world

Of course, from his perspective it is good that he is going earlier than expected. Yet, at the same time he could not help but feels that something is wrong about all of this.

Jean also did not say anything. Jean had returned and only tell him that Death Monarch had gone to the Seresian world.

But after that, he suddenly disappeared. Jean did not explain it to him why Death Monarch suddenly break his own schedule.

And it is not like he could stop Jean. Even before Jean become a Divine Comprehension leveler, Boris could not order around that man.

Jean once nearly ruled all of Europe by his lonesome. He was as illustrious as Napoleon in the heart of the Frenchman.

You would be surprised that those French who spoke about freedom and revolution all the time, how easy it was for them to bend their knees and kowtowed their head.

Jean gave them power. Gave them security and peace. And there is this sense of nostalgia where the French holds great power over Europe.

Even when he changes sides from the World Government to the Republic and hold position in the Senate, the love of the Frenchman for him is still strong.

In the Senate, those European Senators look toward him as their leader.

But that did not mean that Boris had no other way. He knows he could not force Jean to do something. But he could persuade that man.

He called someone from his office. Almost five minutes later, his subordinates are in front of him. he is sitting on his chair looking at them.

On top of the table is stack of documents.

He has been having more headache by the minute

Information has been flooding in since the news of Death Monarch departure is now common knowledge all over the world.

Many regional power in Europe has started moving.

Boris knows that there is a chance of a few states and countries under the banner of the Republic that would want to secede.

'This is all of that Archmage fault' he exclaimed.

The subordinate in the room only look down to the ground, looking at the marble-like surface of the office of the Right Chancellor like there is something very interesting carved on the tile.

It is clear that Boris is quite angry right now. he had a thousand worries but no assurance.

The internal matter of the Republic might not be that bad if not for Hikigaya action. At least if Hikigaya did not do what he did, it would not give some ideas to those people
