Chapter 954: Eyes wide open (2)



But the same could not be said for Oracles and Seers. Their eyes are like a key. A key to the Veil of the future.

They are many ways of cultivating the energy of the world. As for oracle, they cultivate their eyes.

And it could be said that even after their death, unless their pair of eyes are destroyed by some special method, the eye of an Oracle would remain, appearing like some demonic core or diamonds

The body of an Oracle could decompose, could be burn to ashes, their atomic particles could be scattered all over the starry skies but their eyes however would remain.

There is only few magic in this Universe that could destroy the eye of an Oracle.

Being blind does not mean they lose their ability to see the future. Being blind for Oracle is not a disability but instead a testament of their power reaching a higher level.

When an Oracle become blind, they might not see the world but their sense and their ability to see the future would be enhanced.

There were many Oracles that had become blind and their power had increased.

One could even say, that one they lose their sight, they gained even more knowledge of the world

And as for having one eyed, the most famous of beings that traded their eyes for knowledge is none other than Odin Allfather.

Odin Allfather wanted to know everything in the whole Omniverse.

Even though sitting on Hlidskjalf, his throne he could look out across the whole world, his thirst for knowledge is unsatisfied.

At that time, Asgard was not as prosperous as it is today. It is a still an age of war among the many planets star system around Asgard.

It is before Asgard went into the Source Wall.

He sacrificed his eyes in Mimr well and he threw himself on his spear Gungnir in a symbolic ritual suicide

There is a lot of magic in the whole Omniverse as there is many kinds of it.

But, it is widely regarded, that magic that uses sacrifice is very powerful especially when done willingly

After that Odin hanged himself on the Yggdrasil, the tree of life for nine days and nine nights.

The entire realm of Asgard weeps for him. The sky pours down rain and the clouds produces thunders.

The seas boil over and plants and crops wither.

When it is over, the knowledge of the Omniverse pour down onto him, and he gain the knowledge of Other Worlds and able to understand the runes and bestowed it upon his sons and daughters, upon his people and it became the legacy of Asgard to master the runes.

In that sacrificial action, Odin saw visions and received secret wisdom of the Omniverse.

He saw the Veil, the very same Veil every Oracles, every Seers and Norns could see when they wanted to.

But, unlike Oracles, Seers and Norns, Odin did not only saw the Veil, he was also bestowed with other knowledge.

It enables him to cure the sick, calm storms, turn weapons against his attacker, influence people emotions and this is only a few among of his other abilities that he possesses.

As such, the act of sacrificing one eye is very symbolic for Oracles, Seers and Norns.

Of course, this kind of ritual is only understood by people who had established contract with the source of Oracle energy

And that would be communicating with the Will of Borgan.

As such, the process of gouging her eyes would be painful for Erika. The eye is her ability. But it is also her burden

It is the reason why she just did not stab her eyes and be done with it. Her eyes are very powerful.

And sometimes her eyes even had control over the Oracle.

The stronger her eyes become, the more she would be controlled by it. Oracles, Seers and Norns are all able to see destiny and fates.

But, this ability has a price. At first, they would just become a spectator. But as they grew stronger, they would slowly become the instrument of fate and destiny

Hence, it is a blessing and a curse

Just because you shut your eyelids did not mean that you would not see the future. For Oracle, the eye if the focus of their power. The eye itself is magic.

As such, it contains powerful magical energy. Her revealed objective is to transplant her eyes to Azief eyes and ease the burden of the future visions on her.

After all, she could not destroy her own eyes neither she could throw it away. It would find ways to come back to her.

Maybe, that is the solution that Erika had found.

Or maybe, she had another plan. This could not be dismissed. After all, the Oracle does see the future and as such sees more and could plan more.

Regardless of whatever the reason she is doing this, this is the Price. Azief had also understand it.

After he broke through to Divine Comprehension, even now, he could see strings on him. It reminded him of the string theory that scientist always talk about.

When he looks and saw the Laws of the world, some of them appears like a string.

If string theory is correct and this is actually the face of the Laws of the worlds, then string theory could be said to have an actual basis and not just theory.

But while that could validate the theory of the string theory, there is also other shapes other than string.

And while Azief describe it as a string it actually looks more like waves. This string is of Fate and Destiny.

And this strings of fate and destiny that binds and swirls around him lead somewhere

And it leads to her. If he did not fulfil the price, the strings would be tightened upon him and the more it is like that, the more it is difficult for him to free himself

There are rules. And he is not intending to break it right now. This fate and destiny could easily change one fortune and reverts one fate

The longer it stays with him, the longer he did not fulfil the price, his fortune would be consumed.

Fortune, luck this is all intangible things that could not be manipulated before. But once magic come into the equation, this kind of intangible things comes into play

And since he wanted to save Katarina, he would need all the good fortune he could have

She come closer to him and the distance between him and the Oracle is only around two feet. She smiles

‘You have seen your future. What are you going to do about it?’ she asks calmly. Azief answer

‘I will fight it’ Erika chuckles and she said

‘Didn’t I tell you what happen to those people who make the same declaration as you did now? Didn’t I tell you, that in the end, no matter how much they struggled, they were humbled by fate and destiny. That in the end, they would kneel to fate and destiny, regardless of what they do?’

Azief snorted and simply said

‘I don’t believe’ that is his answer. Erika smiles and said

‘If you are strong, you can choose not to believe. You now understand’ Azief did not say anything.

‘Now, the Price had to be fulfilled’ she said as her fingers come closer to her eyes. Azief frowned but he did not avert his gaze.

Powerful emanations of power suddenly bursted out from Erika eyes as Time and Space around her seems to be distorted.

And then Azief look at the sky.

Other people could not see it but he could.

This scenery could only be seen by those who have deep grasp on the Laws of the world.

Other than that it would be hard for people to see what Azief is seeing right now.

There is a foreign force that pierce through the Heaven Will and is now shrouding Erika. This force comes from the very Will of the Omniverse.

And when Azief notices this Will, he felt familiar with it.

And without a doubt, he recognizes it.

This is the Will of Borgan, the Etherna that is the source of power for clairvoyants all over the Omniverse

The Will of Etherna lives on, becoming the source of power for almost everything in the Omniverse.

Azief look at this swirling power that comes from nowhere and everywhere at the same time, as Erika finger then arrive at his left eye.

She then looks at Azief and smile.

Azief knows what he should do.

He did not hesitate. He did not know what will happen after he got the eye but he knows this is the Price he had to pay.

Her burden will be shared with him. Her burden would become his burden. And her pain would become his pain

The Price is steep for him.

Because his ask is very hard, thus the Price would also reflect that.

He could only sigh inwardly as he could that the string that is around him tightened even more like it could predict that it is about to fulfilled

Azief did not feel pain as the waves-like string seems to tightened. No physical pain could be felt on him but he does feel something in his soul.

It is quite hard to describe what one is feeling about the soul

It felt like it had bind so tightly on his soul that the string is about to break as it come closer to fulfillment

‘No regrets?’ he asked the Oracle.

The Oracle smiles bitterly and answer him

‘No regret’ Smiling, his hand rises up to his face and stop in front of his left eye
