Back at Ingrid Azrail had come upon that book, the one called 'Heavenly Opposers', the very book that gave in detailed explanations of everything happening in the cosmos, ones about the known and unknown. The drama, sadness, and loss of all the great characters that rose to power, the hidden realms, and great knowledge that people would kill for, everything was there in the book.
He had stored everything in his mind, all information was within him and when he got reborn back here, Azrail in his controlled mind several plans using that knowledge but after being freed, Azrail thought of giving that knowledge up, there is no guarantee that those beings that were controlling him might not use the same knowledge to trap him.
It is from there that several different hints started to appear, ever since the control from his body was taken away he had regained his true mind, hence he started to notice all those small details, for example by now Azrail had given a small number of people access to his memories yet none of them were able to grasp upon the part of him reading the book.
It seemed to have a mental block that even if he wanted to no one could read it and what was even deeper is the fact that even All-Seer doesn't have access to this memory! he had felt it when it tried to read through him and the part about 'Heavenly Opposers' was blurred out, even it couldn't see through the depths of that.
Then of course couldn't it mean that those beings making him their puppet could have placed a seal on it? it's more than plausible, it was for that did he do the gamble, Azrail didn't just take his name to erase control of the past, it was also to see if his speculations were true and this time his hypothesis was right.
Once he got rid of his name, the connections of control were lost and Azrail clearly felt the difference, he had felt the connection of those beings attached to him wither off, and along with it certain protections placed on him were removed but his greatest gift, the ultimate knowledge of the future was still there, it wasn't connected to anything of such.
But then came the question, who gave him the book? why was it inscribed with the cultivation technique? wasn't it the gift those being granted him?
Azrail had found it very confusing after regaining his mind, the cultivation technique Omega Asura's Wrath, was it that easy to cultivate? powerful cultivation techniques such as those would require extreme conditions and a whole another level of talent to start to cultivating, yet was he was able to do it in a lower realm? back then with his 'ok' level talent?
Adding onto that, is a cultivation technique capable of granting such powerful flames from just practicing? no Azrail knew it deep in his heart, those flames existed in him way before he took on the cultivation technique, they were a part of him, and cultivating Omega Asura's Wrath was the gateway that lead him to finally unlocking them.
All this while he had imagined that to be the gift those controlling beings gifted him, an extreme power to reign above everyone but it would seem that he was at fault, the gifts that should have been his were taken away when he changed his name, if he came to think of it, the inheritance to the Tower may have being a power that the beings wanted to gift him, a change made solely for him.
Then if all of those were the truth, where did the 'Heavenly Opposers' come from? and why is it that he wasn't feeling a hint of hostility towards it? Azrail had come to recognize what is his and what isn't, he could feel it deep into his bones that the stories he read were his, and he can feel the extreme happiness of his flames. Azrail knew that those flames were his.
And no one can control his feelings, with Death in a row, no one can control his mind, everything he was feeling is the truth, it was the same feeling one felt when something that should be theirs is returned back to them,
'This was supposed to be mine'
Azrail's eyes narrowed heavily, he petted the fox with one hand while his other, trailed along the smooth hair of Valencia, he had found another mystery but this one isn't malicious, he could tell, hence he will use it to his advantage, making everything he wants his and so what if the ones watching him felt suspicious? who dares to piss off Death?
Chilling sounds left Azrail's mouth earning a confused glare from Adrea, while the cute fox Rhena licked Azrail's finger,
Thinking so he turned his attention towards the door, while Adrea looked at him, giving him a glare she disappeared back into Valencia's body while the fox turned into smoke and returned to Valencia,
Azrail said, while he put a veil over Valencia's face, it was okay for him if but ones below Valencia's cultivation saw her face without her permission then they would become slaves of hers, especially when Valencia is out cold and isn't even controlling the charm leaking out of her body. Just as he finished speaking Yunbai entered inside the room.
His eyes fixated on Azrail, as they widened, Yunbai who had returned felt as if Azrail was different as if he was more ominous?
Azrail asked as he carefully kept looking after Valencia,
"It's fine everything went as planned"
Yunabai spoke as he tossed a sack towards Azrail who caught it, his sense flashing through it as he felt the several powerful spatial rings in it, then his sense focused on Yunbai who had his killing intent and aura sharpened,
"You seem to had fun"
Azrail spoke with a smile,
Yunbai said as his eyes trailed toward the girl in Azrail's arms,
Azrail said to which Yunbai shrugged his shoulder, not minding it much,
"Heard you changed your name and left the family?"
Yunbai asked to which Azrail nodded his head,
"It was a bloody leave"
Azrail spoke with a cold smile, bringing on a bloodthirsty one on Yunbai's face,
"You should have called me too"
Yunbai said with his eyes shining,
'He is falling into the yearning of slaughter'
Azrail marked as he responded,
"Well it was a quick affair, plus don't tell me you didn't have enough slaughter back at the Secret Realm?"
Yunbai said, his smile widening, while the aura of slaughter started to increase, seeing this Azrail sighed and released his hidden aura of slaughter while closing off the area. As soon as his killing intent was out Yunbai's was suppressed, his smile being lost while his knees started to buckle,
"Control Yunbai, don't let it take you"
Azrail said with a chilling voice, causing the mental sweetness of slaughter to fade away, Azrail's slaughter aura completely took over and stripped Yunbai of his, letting his mind turn to normal, seeing so Azrail took away his killing intent, looking at the pale and trembling Yinbai he spoke,
"Take rest for now, we will take later"
Hearing his words Yunbai nodded his head and walked out of the room, leaving Azrail mulling in his thoughts,
Azrail thought, something powerful enough to hold him in place so that he won't be lost in his desire, thinking so several different ideas flashed through his mind until he stopped on the best one possible, the idea brought a sly smile to his face,
