GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?



The matter that makes up the pillar is strange, to say the least. It is as if the pillar isn't complete and that he is only seeing half of it and yet the other half is also here in this plane of existence but just inaccessible by any means of determination. The pillar is both tangible and phantom. The state of the tangible pillar is being mimicked by the phantom pillar in an undisclosed situation through a link of entangled matter.

He has been scanning the pillar ever since messengers from the racial council brought it a few weeks ago. He knew it was special the moment he saw it for different reasons. For the first reason, his eyes could pick up on the specialness of the pillar. He figured out what the pillar does immediately after he saw it. In layman's terms, it converts beings with soul bodies into energy that is transmitted to a destination where they are then reconstructed. The pillar is both a processor and a transmitter.

He didn't need his eyes to know what it does. He knew already because of the second reason. It is why he knows that the pillar is special. He has seen this pillar before. It is not him exactly but another clone of Legion that saw it. The circumstances around that event are linked to the realm lord. Anything linked to the realm lord must be special. 

He had grinned when he first saw the pillar. He thought to himself, "So this competition is a ruse. There has to be something going on about it that they are not telling us. It must have a hidden agenda. It is just like the first sage to be two-faced. But I am on to him now."

This second reason is more important than the first reason because it gave Soverick suspicion of a greater purpose for the competition. The first sage already said the competition is not simple. He didn't understand back then but now is not so clueless. 

The pillar is a piece of hardware that boggles the mind of best forgers of origin artifacts. It is a top-grade artifact just like Aeternus Claymore but its makeup is as close to a world fragment as possible. In order words, anyone that can forge this pillar needs a law of order. 

The sage could have made the pillar and he is certain it is the sage that made the pillar. He can see the traces of the First Sage's law of order on it. If it wasn't for the phantom state of the pillar then he wouldn't attend this competition anymore. He will just sit here and look at the pillar. Unfortunately for him, the phantom state makes it useless for him to observe. He also wants to see what one of the realm lord's artifacts doing in a competition within the plane.

He said eagerly. "I can't wait to see what this is all about."

His find also improved his mood. The clone of Legion that saw the pillar first didn't have his eyes to bore into its secrets but he does. He is always eager to see more truths of the universe and this pillar is a condensation of such truths. He has been unsure of his decision to participate in the competition but now he wants to be a part of it and see what it is all about.

He sat down and analyzed the pillar since then never moving once. The phantom state is making the pillar have more than one property. It is scrambling what he is seeing so much that even his law of casualty can't create meaningful links but he didn't give up. Anything can happen and he might see something interesting. So he sat there and didn't move until the last bell signaling the end of registration started to ring. 

"This isn't over." He promised the pillar as he used his divine sense to start the registration process.

He completed the registration and was swept into the pillar. The pillar shook and strained to transmit him to the competition world. He might have a soul body that meets the minimum requirement but his soul body is as strong as a Sovereign's body of law so the pillar had a little difficulty doing its job. Thankfully, the workmanship of the pillar is impeccable considering who its manufacturer is.

Soverick appeared in a white world. The ground and the sky are white. Everything is white so he looks like he is in a giant white box. He smiled when he saw where he is.

He thought to himself. 'I was right. They are linked."

He wasn't surprised by where he ended up. He had gleaned enough information from the pillar to know where he is right now plus he has been somewhere like this before. It was against his choice but it was useful and it is continuing to be useful.

This place is an exact replica of the first Sage's mind space. It is not a coincidence. The internal world of a world fragment in its basic form is similar to the mind space of its creator because of the law of order that was used to make it. He counted on this similarity, and that's why he decided to participate in this competition.contemporary romance

Salvini came to him with a lot of things that could persuade him to join this competition. All those things didn't persuade him. It was when he heard that the competition will take place in an artifact built by a world god that he decided to participate. And now, he is in that artifact created by the world god. His knowledge of how world fragments are made has also not disappointed him. What he came looking for is within reach.

He looked around and noticed that he isn't the only one around. The world is filled with others who were transmitted here. They are to be his competitors. There's only one person that can win the opportunity to ask anything from the first sage.
