Azief now understood why when he wears the ring, he felt this kind of uneasy feeling. And why there is a certain coldness in his heart when he uses the ring
When he was weak and his realm was low, he did not feel that.
But as he grows stronger, and as he uses the ring, he felt the power of the ring but also felt a certain coldness to it
But at that ti, he did not think much of it.
However now listening to Borgan explanation, he finally knows why he felt such way
So, he nodded.
And he understood.
But if Loki was here, he would surely nod with a certain kind of understanding.
Azief in the future tiline is a very cold person.
Of course, it also has sothing to do with his personal experience, but even without the experience he had, in the end, Azief personality in this tiline might develop the sa way if he keeps using the rings.
There are many such artefacts in the Universe which with prolonged use could affect the user.
And this ring is one of that many artefacts that could also affect the users that uses it and wore it.
Azief understood now after Borgan explains it to him.
When he heard the song on his ears before, he could hear life in it.
He could hear joy.
That Etherna must be the Etherna from which cos the Ring of Creation Songs
Actually, there is Songs that he had learned from the ring of creation songs that is not dark magic.
But most of the songs that he had learned all have dark kind of magic. Song of Poisonous Mist for example just by hearing the title of the song once could tell that it is a song that is not good
There is also the hymn of disaster. As he looks at these Ethernas, he could feel there is a change in him
Song echoes in his ears
Words chanted and even though he did not know the words, he could tell these are forbidden words
"With one Word, Reality changes" he mutters. Right now, Azief did not realize it himself but his eyes are cloudy just like when Oracle Erika divines the future.
He is seeing things, hearing this, sensing things, and so of them might just be an illusion but it could also be true
The Words that he had learned before now seem got reveal a different kind of power. Each ti he thought of the Ten Ethernas, even though he could only rember the feeling and not the appearance, he could feel his control over the rings strengthened
He heard songs, he heard words and he learns ritual.
And this his vision changes and he see another different thing
He first saw nothing, feeling himself and seeing nothing
He is shrouded in darkness.
But then he sees light, a dim light, a floating orb of fire that illuminates.
It however illuminates only a portion of the darkness and then more of such floating orb a appears and as far as the eyes could see, he sees an all-pervading darkness.
And then he saw a cube. The cube looks small
And so, he flies toward the cube, touches it and he enters the cube
The mont he touches the cube, he understood what the cube is.
It is a dinsion sealed inside a cube. The dinsion could be called a Void dinsion.
And there is a prison inside this void dinsion
Inside it, all kinds of terrors and horrors could be seen.
There is terrifying beast with horrifying appearances. So are solid and so are intangible, like a pervading fear that enters one heart silently
Like a whisper, like the blowing of the winds of spring, unseen
But for the creatures that is more tangible, these beast and musters all of them is marked.
And Azief saw the mark and the mont he saw it; he knew what the mark ans. But when he tries to rember the mark again, he could not rember it.
But he knows what is the function of the mark.
It is a mark to summon them
Azief understood that this is the place from where the Ring of Great Summoning called upon the Demonic God from the Dark Abyss
This dinsion that he is seeing now, is the Dark Abyss.
"With one drop of Blood, Summoning the Demonic God from the Dark Abyss"
"Whose blood?" Azief mutters and a voice answer in his mind
"My blood" the voice sounded like a whisper, like song.
If he did not listen carefully, he would not hear it. In his glimpse of the Dark Abyss, he sees a semi skeletal winged horse
Behind this semi skeletal winged horse, there is a legion of shadows behind it, dark mist swirling under his hooves, bringing darkness wherever it treads.
He saw a black dragon with red scales and red eyes.
He knows it is a black dragon because the mont he sees the monster, the information about the monster transited into his mind, making it appear like he has always known these monster
The voice he heard before; probable is the voice of the Etherna that turns into the Ring of Great Summoning
Then he heard the sound of a stomp and he feel his heart shakes and around Azief body right now, the elent swirls around him.
Right now, Azief could not see that the ten Etherna in the chamber with Phaitos is hurling themselves into the large forge of fire
There are no screams as none of them wanted to show such indignity.
Their souls, their essence, their life was all mixed in that forge of fire, lded and mixed
Each one of them sacrifices their life and each ti they sacrifice their life, Azief seems to have create so kind of connection with these ten Ethernas.
And connecting with them ans connecting with the rings
The coldness in the ring, the corruption from the ring and the perversion from the rings seems to have lessened.
The stronger the connection, the closer Azief is to the form of the Ten Etherna that is good and kind, that is spring and light
Right now, the elent that is swirling around him is lightning, fire, water, wind, tal, void, earth, dark and light
"With one stomp, quake the world, invoking all the elents" before Azief did not understand these words. But now, in his vision he sees sothing
And he understood deeper what the words tries to tell him.
The world does not an the world today. These words were spoken in those primordial tis. At that ti, the parallel universe did not exist yet
There is only one world. So, in the context of the era that Azief is living in, the world simply ans the Omniverse itself
"The limit that this power has…was limited by myself" Azief always thought out of the ten rings, this ring in particular is the weakest in utilization.
Yes, the elents when used properly is powerful but even if he did not wield the ring, he still could control the elent.
But now as he understood what the "World" ans, it was like he is playing a ga and he found out that the thing he thought have reached its limit could actually be upgraded.
And as for the image that he saw, he saw an Etherna.
The face is blurred but Azief did not forget the feeling he felt. And even though Azief could not see the face of this Etherna, he did see sothing else and he imprinted it in his mind.
He saw this person manipulate lightings of various colours and powers. Each lightning seems to have its properties. Each of these lightning is destructive in their own unique way
So of these lightings are lightning that he very much recognizes. So of the lightning he saw are lightning that are made by speedster when they are running
And then there is also lightning and thunders that eerily similar to tribulation lightning.
And then he could see all kinds of fire. Even mythical fire, a fire that burns everything, a fire that protect, a fire that purify.
All kinds of fire, from fire of punishnt to a fire that breeds life, to a fire that opens up darkness.
It is the sa for the Wind, for tals and minerals, Void, Dark and Light
All of these elents have its own layers and its own mysteries that it would take millions of years just to unravel it all and master it all
Before, he did not see the potential of this ring and its power. He thought…. wrong
And then as another Etherna hurl himself into the fire of the forge, all kinds of formation suddenly appear in front of his eyes.
No, to be more accurate it was like it exploded in front of his eyes and he could see a vision of tens of thousands of formations which could then be a variable of another formation, creating millions of formations and these millions of formations could also be used to create other formation creating trillions more formation
On and on it goes, infinite and limitless.
Out of the many rings he has, this is the ring which Azief uses the most.
Most of the defensive formation that is embedded in Pandemonium ca from this ring.
Then there is another vision. This ti the vision shows him sealing thods of all kinds
From sealing beast, to sealing the world, to sealing intangible concepts and restrain it, all kinds of seal thods enter his mind
It was so much so that so of the mory seems distorted.
"Argh" Azief clutch his head.
He feels pain as more and more of this vision swarm his mind. Borgan who is standing beside him sighed and then put her hand on his shoulders and almost imdiately, Azief face shows relief.
But Azief himself did not notice that right now Borgan is toughing his shoulders. Borgan look at Azief . Azief right now is now in a state of fugue.
In his eyes right now, he could not see Borgan. Instead, what he is seeing right now, is the vision of an Etherna sealing all kinds of things with his abilities
And Borgna looking at Azief, her eyes shines in a different colour. If Azief could see brogan eyes right now, he would be shocked.
Because in Borgan eyes right now, there is the sa scene that Azief is seeing. With her eyes, she could probably really see everything
Borgan in her eyes sees old friends and old acquatinaces in Azief mind. In front of her is the tragic scene of her friends and Etherna she admire throwing thlseves into the forge of fire.
And in Azief vision, she sees the shining mont of her friends.
She sigh, a smile on her face, a gentle smile.
"Take it easy on him" she mutters and then she removes her hand from Azief shoulder. Azief is looking at the vision and she...she is looking forward. Looking once again at the sacrifice of these heroes she admires.
"I respectfully send you all off. And I will finish what you all sacrificed your life for"
