GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?



Ghaster successfully escaped again and hid on top of a tree. His position high up in the trees afforded him the opportunity to see his pursuers rushing around below. They ran around looking for him on the forest floor. None of the looked up so they failed to find him and eventually dispersed.

This time, Ghaster grumbled inwardly instead of making noise. He said, "There's something fishy going on here."

The blow to his pride aside. Ghatser is mostly perplexed rather than ashamed. He can't figure out how Soverick did the things he did no matter how much he thinks about it. It is not only that he can't do what Soverick did. He can't come up with a possible reason or explanation for why Soverick is so ahead. So he is lacking both in brawn and in brains.

eαglesnᴏνel If it is any consolation, he is not the only one that thinks there's something out of place with Soverick's performance. There are a lot of people who can't make heads or tails of why he is so strong.

The power system of this world works in a way that should prevent what Soverick did. And yet, he managed to kill a rank 4 monster with only a zero rank. They can't do that. Does that mean that Soverick is many times stronger than them? If that is so, then there must be something very fishy going on with Soverick.

Back To Soverick.

He couldn't take the skies so he was speeding through the forest. The birds kept up with him in the sky. They cawed occasionally to let him know that they are waiting for him. He ignored their taunts and focused on increasing his decryption of the laws of this world and reaching that mountain. The mountain is special apart from being the only one he can see in the entire arena.

In the past, he would have said with certainty that because he can only see one mountain, then there can only be one mountain. He has been taught by a world god that he shouldn't think his eyes are perfect. The fact that he can't see something doesn't mean it is not there. Nothing is certain until you are perfect. 

The mountain being the only one in the arena is uncertain but he can focus on something that can make it certain. That thing is the law matrix of this world fragment.

The smart transcendents that have noticed the oddity of this world will first have to harmonize with the world before they can comprehend laws. Unlike the others though, he intends to crack the law matrix of this world wide open instead of skimming at the edge. Once he gets that, he will know for certain if there's only one mountain or not.

It is not that the mountain is special because it is the only one in the arena. He is certainly not focusing his entire visual prowess on determining if there's only one mountain. It is the certainty in determining if there's one mountain that he is after. Once he can be certain about that, he can be certain about a lot of other things.

Anyways, the mountain is a good aim to reach for. The guidelines say that the strongest monster resides on it and trying to reach it will increase encounter with stronger monsters. Those that want to survive will stay clear of it. There's no need to look for trouble if all they want to achieve is survival. 

He on the other hand wants to get as much as he can get from the law of order of the sage even if it is just echoes of his supreme law. He needs the strength of this world to achieve that and he wants to win the challenge so that he can make a request of the first sage. He can't win if he doesn't beat the strongest monster so he has to reach the top of the mountain.

He was racing forward when he sensed an incoming enemy. He stopped in the air and tried to determine what it is. He used the stirrings in the momentum of the world instead of his divine sense to survey his enemy. It won't give him an image or physical details but it will give him a better estimate of its power and at a farther range than his currently limited divine sense. contemporary romance

This isn't the real world where he can estimate the power of a being based on its aura and energy fluctuations. Monsters here seem like ordinary animals but they have been empowered by the world. So some monsters can be deceptively strong. The only correlation that he has found that determines strength is size, which is a wrong determinant in the normal world. Size shouldn't determine strength. But it does here. The bigger the monster, the stronger it is.

His eyes lit up when he sensed the opponent. "Very large. At least rank 6. This is going to be fun."

The monster is still far away but he can tell what kind of threat it will be. It made him eager. A monster means a fight and another upgrade to his rank. He will be able to decrypt the law matrix faster if he has more help from the world.

His eagerness increased when he began to get clearer readings of the monster. It became so clear that an ordinary person will be able to intuit what a dangerous beast it is. The monster is a huge four-legged beast more than 20 meters tall. 

For comparison, he is merely a little above 2 meters tall. That means this monster is almost 10 times taller than him. It doesn't end there. The monster is actually more than 10 times bigger than him. It is a huge monster. But Soverick isn't intimidated. The monster has the advantage of height and volume but he has the advantage of mass. If not for the suppression of this world, then his advantage of mass will be all he needs to win this fight.
