People flocked to these two depending on their belief. It also depends from where they came from

The kingdoms and nations closes to the capital of the imperial power sided with Sasha.

Those who are on the border or have extensive relationship with the military regime of the Three Great Generals sided with Wang Jian.

But this is not what matters right now.

What meters right now, why is it that these two still did not get the news that Death Monarch has returned?

Almost like someone is blocking the news from reaching these two.

And then there is another question.

What is Death Monarch doing right now?

If he had returned why not go to Pandemonium to stop this war?

there is already killings and there is already news of cities being conquered and passes being breached.

These soldiers that is quite gentlemanly before, mostly just duelling each other now is openly killing and attacking.

Sasha employs all kinds of lethal weapon and Wang Jian already uses lethal formation when attacking.

Those who watches these two forces fighting each other, noted it looks like the painting of celestial demons and celestial deities fighting against each other, from the sky to below the ground, on earth and above the heavens, on the soil and under the sea.

They turned down heaven and earth and wage war all over the realm of men and deities.

Where is he and what is he doing instead of stopping this war between his two minister.

This is the biggest mystery of all.

Death Monarch is confirmed to be on the planet.

He must have heard about what is happening in Pandemonium.

It is impossible for him not to have heard it. it is even reported that King Arthur of Arturia had house Death Monarch in one of the island belonging to Arturia. There is even a palatial mansion there is one of the island reportedly believed to be the beach villa of Death Monarch when he was staying there.

If that is the case, then Arthur must have brief him what happened to Pandemonium.

Even if Arthur did not say anything, Death Monarch just by flying around in any big cities would listen to the story of the civil war.

Yet, after going away from Arturia he seems to have disappeared.

Yes, disappeared.

Some news outlet of the foreign world powers reported this that someone of them even goes to the palace and asking for some words from King Arthur but King Arthur was very tight-lipped.

As for the high brass of the world powers, they just like the people below also did not know where Death Monarch is right now

Their spies that they send to Arturia now numbered by the dozens. Some of them even infiltrate the island where Death Monarch supposedly lived but there is no trace he is there.

Of course, since Death Monarch was in one of the islands, there is a high possibility that he would also make other island nearby as his settling place for a while

so, these people also sent spies to scour the entirety of that sea area, spanning tens of thousands of kilometres. But there is no sign at all that Death Monarch stay around Arturia.

As for those people at the very top, people like Hikigaya, Narleod, and the Chancellors of the Republic, they know if Death Monarch wanted to hide himself, even if tens of thousands of men swarmed around that area, they would not find a trace of Death Monarch.

These people knows the power of the Divine Comprehension laws to wield the laws and rules of the world and Death Monarch is one realm above them.

There is always a rumour that those who reached Essence Creation, if they do not want to be seen by you, even if he is standing in front of you, you would not notice.

This rumour came about because Divine Comprehension realm itself is possessed by some of the world powers and they could deduce at least some of the powers of Essence Creation realm by basing it on what the Divine Comprehension realm being levellers could do.

It is almost like your senses are forbidden to see such being unless that being allows it. Only those with exceptionally high sense and high sensitivity to their own energy field could sometime detect something is wrong

Knowing this some people begins asking a different question? A question that could once again bring chaos to the world

Why is Death Monarch is lowkey right now?

This is unlike him. Everyone knows Death Monarch is a bit theatrical. But no one is laughing.

After all, when he appears, it means something serious is about to happen. When he does it, it brings dread

But now, it is almost like he did not want to be recognized, does not want anyone to know where he is. Even when his presence is no longer a secret, he still did not appears.

Almost like he did not want people to know he is back.

And so, thoughts begins to sprout

Did he not want to stop the war? or....or is he incapable of stopping the war?

If it’s the former, it is terrifying.

This means, he wanted the war to happen and there is a high chance that he was the one inciting those two in Pandemonium to wage war against each other

This is nothing serious.

After all, some rulers would rather watch their subjects at each other throats then focusing on threatening the one on the throne

But that is a matter of a mortal kingdom.

Death Monarch never needed to rely on such method of imperial check and balance.

Because those two power and authorities are derived from the prestige and from the power of Death Monarch

In a mortal kingdom, even the emperor are mortal.

An arrow to the head could end imperial ambition, a scheme concocted in a room could poison a king, but Death Monarch is the strongest person in the world

If he wanted to, he could supress all ambitious people in his realm and if he wanted to a decree could stop the war

So, if he is the one behind this....it is almost like a mad king, simply wondering what these people would do.

If there is such a mad king in the world, simply wanting to see what would happen and plunge the people into war just for this desire....then that is really terrifying

Death Monarch would become a threat to world peace.

Hence, the world would need to fight him.

But he is the strongest man in the world.

How then could the world fight such a person without suffering greatly?

Hence, if he did not want to stop the war because of some sick twisted intention, then it is a really terrifying

If it the latter....then chaos is inevitable.

Because if Death Monarch is not capable to stop it, it could only means one thing.

Death Monarch right now is in a vulnerable position.

That is what that means.

If the reason he did not show himself is because he is hurt or worse, then that means the problem is worse

And if someone could trap Death Monarch or god forbid, kill him, then chaos would reign again in the world.

The world power will have another power struggle and this power struggle would exceed all the power struggle that had happened since the fall

It would be the greatest world war this world had ever seen.

In the past, the world powers did not have that much power.

Now, all of those powerful people are like gods.

And if they started fighting each other, it would be likes gods and deities fighting a celestial war.

But no one wanted war. not even the world powers.

The order of the Seven World Powers had just stabilized.

Of course, excluding the Lotus Order which is nearly just a shell of its former glory, all of the other six great powers had established their foundation and the world had already accepted the order.

All of the people of the war had just survive a war. and everyone is tired of it.

Recuperation is the conclusion of all seven world powers.

The alliance between the seven world powers, the power dynamic between them actually created peace.

It is something everyone agreed on.

But this peace is very fragile.

If something happens to Death Monarch, something bad, something that could shake his throne and the throne of Pandemonium as the strongest world power, then all the other six powers would have no choice but to fill the vacuum.

Whether they wanted to or not, they have to.

Sometimes, in the world it is just like this. Sometimes people shaped circumstances. But many more times, the circumstances shaped the people.

And to fill the vacuum, they have to fight.

There would be a war all over the world, among the six great powers. It doesn’t matter who wins this war. Such war would be tragic and by the end of it, destruction would ravage the world with millions dead.

Even if you win....you lose.

Hence, if it’s the latter, chaos is inevitable. None of the scenario is good.

But many people have learned their lesson.

Some wise people could tell that it might not be that Death Monarch is incapable of stopping the war.

maybe he is trying to trick some people.

This would not be the first time that people perceived a weakness from Death Monarch and it would not be the first time Death Monarch do this kind of trick.

It is one of his frequent trick. But people could not just help themselves from falling into it.
