The battle is not that important to Azief.
He had expected that the Heaven would try to reclaim back his domain of power from him. Since he had the eye of the Oracle, he notices that the premonition instinct that he had is getting stronger.
Before, when such premonition came, it is only his heart that would be affected.
He would feel uncomfortable when he had premonition of a problem. Or when there is some kind of fortuitous serendipity, his heart would feel calmer than usual
But since having the eye of the Oracle, this premonition is no longer just that. Sometimes, he had a glimpse of what will happen next.
Like he is seeing some kind of spoiler of some sorts.
When he felt the premonition of the Heaven Will getting stronger and is about to make its move, in that brief of moment that did not even last for a second, he saw a glimpse.
