Azief listen to all of this but he did not think too far. He is used to these powerful beings sotis talk about things he did not understand
He believes it is the sa like when he said so things to his subordinate.
So of the worlds he said would not make sense to them
Or maybe because these beings are old and sotis, they like to reminisce things.
The past to them might be as vivid as the present
Azief also knows that sotis, even when they are talking their mind might be in different places, like so kind of projection
He himself is capable of this projection.
And sotis he uses it when he misses sothing or when he is in an unfamiliar places to gain his bearings and rembers himself
For those who just manage to control this, it would appear to other people like you are high and seeing things that are not there
When you mastered it, it is like splitting your consciousness into two.
While you are talking with soone, your mind could be in different places enjoying the finer things in life
Azief himself did not yet reach this level and did not master it and he rarely uses it. Because if you did not know how to control it, there is a chance that you would dislike your own reality of life and take refuge in your own mind and then the panacea would beco poison
It is like if you walk in an Battlestar deck, all you see around you would be tal walls and tal pillars but if you use projection, you could have been walking alongside a beautiful forest path. It is a way of your mind seeing things
You could even turn pain into pleasure and hardship into motivations. In a way, it is mind overcoming matter
Hence, there are beings that even if they lost half of their body, could still fight.
So take it even further where even if all of their conscious thought was eliminated, instinct that they programd into their body made them able to keep fighting even if their brain and conscious thought is destroyed.
He expected that the scenery that Odin saw when he is ranting is not the sa kind of scenery that he is looking at
Azief only listen. And he did not interrupt. He did not know whether any of this could help him. But there is no harm in listening
Then Odin stopped. He looks at Azief and he smiles
"I could not help but say sothing’s you did not understand" Azief only nodded
"I am used to it"
"But I do have one question? If I found the leaf, found the tree, did what ask you ask to do, what would I get?"
"A powerful potion with nearly unlimited vitality. It would allow you to ld the two opposing Essence Avatar that you have. I would not give it to anyone."
Smiling Odin added
"But you are not anyone. And rarely there are beings like you that would be able to even reach this stage. Those who could reach this stage all have beco legendary figures in the Omniverse. In different worlds they have different nas, but their myths leave a Divine Stamp on the world they did pass through."
He paused for a seconds and then added
"These favours is not given to you so that you could beco deities and be respected and honoured all over the world. You know as well as I do why I give this all of this knowledge and all of this privilege to you"
"For survival"
Odin nodded
Then Odin look around and he shakes his head
"We have been here for quite so ti. And so things...has been uneasy"
The way Odin said things, it was like there was sothing sinister about it
He laughed and then said
"It is ti for you to return"
Azief look around him, like he wanted to etch all of this scenery around him in his mind
But now, as he looks at the scenery again he notices sothing he did not notice before.
Now, it is no longer just jungles.
The scenery seems to change in matter of second. At one point it is a tundra of snowy plains, another it is a grassland that is so vast one could not see its end.
Another second, it turns into a shore overlooking a sea far into the horizon.
Azief sees all this and he smiles
"Myriad worlds resting on top of a branch. It is not as taphorical as so people thoughts. It is just from a different perspective"
There is so books that said that the world rested on the branches of the World Tree.
So who believe in these books said that it is a taphorical. But Azief knows that it is not that taphorical after all.
There isa tree. And this tree is so big that one could not fathom it.
Holding a world on one of its branches is very easy for it
He understood another thing, another secret of the world. This is one of the privilege of the strong. To know secrets of the world. And the more one knew the secrets of the world, the more powerful you can beco.
To know the origin of certain thing added to one strength. This is sothing Azief understand after experiencing all of these things in the past.
And the more he understand, the faster the scenery around him changes. It is like a flurry of changes bombarded his mind.
He sees these worlds but only in a glimpse.
But each ti the scenery changes, Azief could feel the order of heaven and earth of that world
Because the tree, or Odin with his capacity of control over the tree is controlling the tree to show him these scene
This is just his speculation. He did not know whether it is Odin that wanted him to see these scenery or the tree itself
And it is showing him the difference between the heavenly wills of these world.
Each ti the scenery changes, it ans he is standing on different worlds
So are quite familiar while so are downright weird
But each world had sothing that he could learn from. The more he is familiar with it, the more he is familiar with the rules that govern these world
Even though it only took a few second for the world to change, this thod alone is helping him greatly
Odin shakes his head
"It’s ti" Azief nodded and he held the leaf he had before on his hand. Odin smiles
He walk toward Azief and then stand beside him. Then he put his hand on his shoulder and the mont he did this, the scenery stop
It stops to a scenery of a village. Azief look at Odin face and there is a wistful smile on his face.
But then before he could even ask any question, the space and ti around them began to compress. And the it spirals, the feeling of it was very odd and weird
And then before he knows it, he once again feel the weightless of space.
But his body, like an insist balances himself.
He looks around him and chuckles.
He is back again
"No matter how many ti I felt this, I still could not get quite used to it"
the kind of ti and space travelling that Sun Wukong and Odin brought him to is quite different from the way he would do it.
There is more fundantal laws of reality that these two had touched than when he is using such thod
He is back in that dark space in the Universe. Wargod does not seem to move from the position still sitting on that big drifting stone.
He looks behind him and he sees no Odin.
Before when he was with the Divine Monkey and the Divine Monkey brought him out, Odin was there but the Divine Monkey was not
Now, that he is out from the conversation with Odin, there is no longer Odin. He understood.
They have said what they wanted to say, give what they wanted to give and now, they disappeared
In a way, they are quite efficient.
Or maybe the circumstances did not allow them to linger. The Divine Monkey did not seem to like company. Maybe there is a story there.
As for Odin, if his words were to be believed, there is a war to be fought. And from the stories about Odin, he is always there when there is a war.
Now, there is only him and Wargod.
And on his hand, there is a leaf.
"Ah, nearly forgot about this" he mutters to himself and then he chuckles to himself and put the leaf inside his sleeve and the space properties in his sleeve stores this leaf.
Then he look toward Wargod in the distance and fly towards him
Azief look at Wargod and Wargod looks at him. For a mont, there is only silence between them
Wargod then ask
"How was it?"
Azief thought for a mont and then he smiles
"Fruitful" Wargod eyebrows raised and then he laughed
