The Primordial Record
chapter-295

Such an enormous structure that was also very energy dense would take a lot from him before he could Fast Travel with it. Rowan began spreading the light of the Astrolabe over the entire palace. Due to its size, it was taking some time to cover it all.

Behind him, Fury roused himself, as he shook himself from the intense shock that plagued him. Rowan could understand a bit about what he was going through. This man had lived his entire life believing he was the top dog, granted with a great destiny with all the resources and secrets of the Empire open to him.

He came to Rowan expecting he should be the one with all the answers, he was woefully wrong, his ignorance about Rowan was the first sign to him, that Fury was a child who had seen only a single tree for the first time and assumed he had seen an entire forest.

But there was only one reason Fury could have been really shocked by what Rowan had said to him, and to truly understand the cause, you needed to understand Medan, it was a language that could project intent and meaning in each word spoken. So there was no way Fury should not have heard what Rowan said, and he knew that fact.

The only reason Fury could not hear what he had said was that before now, someone had gone into his head and sealed any memory of that word from reaching him. The result of this was that during the course of his investigation he might have come into contact with the Order of Broken Eyes before, perhaps even investigated them, but he had no recollection of it.

It may have been a recent affair, or he might have been there since the moment Fury was born. Rowan did not know who was the true power behind the Order of Broken Eyes, but one thing was clear, their reach was extensive.

Fury was a pawn, for there was no way he would have made it to him before the Order, the most likely reason was that he was allowed him to reach him, and so when Rowan spoke, he made sure he projected the full meaning of the Order into his words, and it hit Fury like a bomb.

It was all his understanding about the Order and their methods, he told Fury about the Nexus, and he compressed all that information into just a simple question; did Fury know the Order of Broken Eyes?

Rowan was making a bet, that Fury had been compromised, and he was right. Now it was all up to him if he would be able to break the chains placed upon him. He saw no need in killing Fury, it was better to sow troubles in his enemies camp. If only he had a fully grown Angel, he would use it to possess this frightening genius.

Rowan heard his whispers, "How is it possible? Who betrayed me? Nathis? When did my mind no longer become my own?"

Rowan nearly rolled his eyes, he was busy expanding the size of the Astrolabe Projection over the entire palace and he had only five consciousness pillars left. No, make that six, he had just activated another consciousness pillars; however, he intended to keep Fury busy with his thoughts, so he could not be distracted, and he threw another bombshell at him,

"You ask questions with very obvious answers that you have been blinded to because of arrogance and your sheltered lifestyle. Yet, the truth of the matter has always been with you. You said yourself, you are the culmination of hundreds of thousands of years of breeding. You are the Prized Stock, the Prime Bull. What. Did you think your owners gave you everything for your benefits alone?"

Fury turned to him, his eyes blazing with wrath, "I have no owners!"

Rowan continued, nonetheless, keeping Fury talking was better than him thinking about attacking, he was about 70 percent done, and every moment that passed by he was getting closer to completion.

"You understand the way the world of Dominator works Fury, why did you think you were out of the game? Did you think your talents made you immune to the machinations of the powerful? Or do you think the countless eyes lusting after your power and potential would give up just because you were fed a promise? You cannot make a deal with me because I am fighting to be above making the mistakes you have made your entire life, and in a far worse situation than the one you are in. Because I was once like you. Lost. Only I had no guide. So this is a test for you Fury, would you prevail?"

The Astrolabe coverage was complete and Rowan sighed and he looked through the tear in space inside the Divine Kingdom and selected a predestined path.

When Rowan created the second batch of Angels, and sent them to the various Continent, he had also sent one angel deep into space.

The reason he sent the Angel deep into space was twofold, the first was to chart a clear path for him when he would be leaving the planet, he wanted to avoid falling into traps that could have been easily avoided if he knew his path, space was a new frontier for him, and having a scout was the right move to make, and the second was to find an incoming ally.

Launching the Divine Palace into space would be the first stroke in the incoming war. Rowan hardened his mind, and gritted his teeth.

"Let's play!"

The entire Divine Palace and a great chunk of the Divine Kingdom was wrapped in a bright white light, and Fury turned to look back in surprise, but he was too late to intervene, as with a faint pop, the Divine Palace Vanished, hurricane size winds were generated to fill up the void that had been created from its absence.

Rowan left only one Ouroboros Serpent inside the Palace to find and consume the Divine Spark of the god, while the rest were surreptitiously withdrawn into his body.
