GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

contemporary romance

Tanc830,428,723C saw that he was agitated but he chuckled. "Things aren't so bad. They might not apprehend you forcefully. Not everything has to be violent. We are the Supreme Beasts. We invade and plunder, steal, and enslave regularly but we rarely fight amongst ourselves. They will definitely approach you and they might just request to work together with you or examine your concept thoroughly. There's no need for violence. You might even be able to use this opportunity to benefit the whole Supreme Alliance and gain a lot of benefits from it."

That didn't assuage his fears. There is no way that he will allow someone to examine his concept thoroughly. That means he will open himself up to them so they can examine his existence. They will surely find the soul sphere then and any other secrets that they can see. He would rather they kill him than allow them to examine him.

Besides, relying on others to be kind and non-violent is foolish. One should always expect the worst in others. He believes in this and he knows that violence to get what he wants is not even his worst behavior. So how can he expect others to be non-violent?

To expect kindness and stupidity from others is to underestimate them. Legion won't do that because it is a tried and tested method for failure. As for benefiting the whole Supreme Alliance, that's just not going to happen. He doesn't like sharing and he would rather grow powerful enough to rob the whole Supreme Alliance.

But he didn't vocalize these opinions. He said to his mentor, "Thank you Tanc830,428,723C for the information you have provided to me. It has been truly helpful."

"Hmm. I think it is important for you to know so that you won't make a decision in a vacuum. There are a lot of people with their eyes on you wishing for you to take the path of further awakening. It is a dead end but they will trouble you if you don't choose it. You shouldn't choose that path for them but for your own potential. So if you reach a dead end you will have no one to blame but yourself."

"That's all for now. I will send you the list of divine abilities and their potential for growth that the Supreme Alliance has compiled. It will help you in making your decision."

Legion-5 asked tentatively, "Can I also get information about the requirements to become a world god?"

"That is good too. It is always good to see the bigger picture. It will help you to consider your decision through its far-reaching consequences. Alright, I will send it over too."

"Thank you, Tanc830,428,723C."

His mentor waved away the appreciation. "It is my job to assist you in making full use of your potential. Take note that you won't be able to access the information I send unless you swear it upon your origin not to divulge it to anyone else. It is the property of the Supreme Alliance and they don't joke around with theft of their property or betrayal."lights

"You should swear the oath because the information will help you determine your path. Once you have access to it then you will know that there is nothing overly special about the path of further awakening. Supreme Beasts have been doing just fine with the normal path. In fact, we are doing more than fine. We are Supreme."

The connection was cut off then leaving Legion-5 in silence to stew on his thoughts. First, he went through the information they had on him. They have data on everything he has used to morph his body and they even have data on how long it takes to morph his body.

The information isn't something he doesn't know himself. He knows that it takes longer to shift his body into something more powerful. Stones don't take as much time as the metal spoon he used. Stones also don't use as much energy to maintain the shifting. That is something they don't know with certainty. But they postulated about it.

They are also not certain if the changes to his body are permanent or temporary. The fact that the changes disappeared is not conclusive evidence that they are temporary. It may be that they could be permanent but he removed them or they are temporary and will disappear regardless of his efforts to keep them.

He knows that the changes are temporary but will remain for as long as he has the energy to maintain them. He also knows that he can shapeshift into other creatures just like high elves. All he needs is their flesh as the template to morph into. He will have the physical strength and features of creatures that he shifts into but not their divine ability.

"In a way, I am just a high elf but with more potential. The path of further awakening will increase this potential but it is a dead end."

High elves can shift into creatures that they are familiar with. They don't need the flesh of the creature for a template. They can shift into animals or plants, but they can't shift their form into inorganic matter.

He on the other hand can shift his form with inorganic materials. This difference is due to the extra laws that make up his divine ability. If his divine ability awakens further, it will get stronger.

But now he knows that the ability to temporarily take on the features of others is not exactly a good thing to have. The lack of permanence is especially bad for an Origin god. Without it they won't have a permanent concept so It may lead to a dead end on his path of perfection.

Then he went through the information about world gods and the general requirements to become world gods. It is information that will fill in some of their ignorance about what world gods are capable and made of.
