Apparently, Soverick is part of some kind of abomination and he may not be a battle sage monkey despite looking like one. At first, the first sage thought it was an attempt to infiltrate the plane by some unknown entity. If not for the fact that Soverick was the child of the plane then the first sage would have done everything to eliminate him.
The fact that Soverick proved himself to be the child of the plane assured the sage that he was born in the plane and recognized by the Will of the plane. The trust of the collective consciousness of the plane in Soverick reduced the first sage's suspicion of him.
She had asked the first sage to kill Soverick but the sage had said, "I can't do that and I don't want to. He is a sage of the plane. I can't go around killing sages because of a difference of opinion and I want to see if you will survive this. He said that I should allow this to happen in order for me to prove that I made the right choice choosing you over him. That is a reasonable request. You have to prove to me that I made the right choice and you have to do it on your own without my help."
The first sage created a problem for her and he decided to let her deal with it. She has to admit that she wanted the title when Soverick first got it. She thought he was unworthy. She thought it was a blemish for someone other than the lineage of the sage to become the child of the plane. It was supposed to be the lineage of the sage that should be selected to protect the plane. Anyone else is not worthy of that responsibility and the honor that comes with it.
Then her opinion changed when he defeated her and her siblings. The feats that he achieved after that reinforced the fact that Soverick deserved it. He deserved it more than her simply because he earned it while she couldn't. So she wasn't planning to take it from him and neither did she know that the first sage was planning to do it. In fact, she liked Soverick very much and still does. She would like to be in a relationship with him but he wants nothing more than to kill her now.
"This is bad." She muttered. "I just want to explain myself to him. He should at least hear my own side of the story."
She can't blame him for his reaction towards her. It must look like she had a hand in his betrayal and the besmirching of his name after he died. But that is only partially true. It was until the 4th and last challenge in the competition that she knew what would happen to him with certainty. But she had some inkling before then.
Things were already too late for Soverick from the moment he decided to participate in the competition. The first sage had his teeth sunk into him. He couldn't escape anymore. Nothing could be done to change it and even if it could be done, she couldn't betray her bloodline. She can't do that for him anyway. He isn't worth betraying the ancestor of her bloodline for. contemporary romance
So she took advantage of the situation. She asked Soverick to use his title to kill her during the 2nd challenge when she gave up the title of the last man standing to him. She helped him prevent a fight with her brother Salvos. She helped him fight off Lady Amari. She did her part in distracting him and she was rewarded for it.
Soverick died and she became the child of the plane. It wasn't easy for her. She had to watch the one that she cared for die while knowing that he would die. But instead of helping him, she took advantage of his death. It was painful to do but she did it anyway because her ancestor wanted it.
She had her doubts about it but those doubts disappeared when she awakened the memory of her ancestor:s promise. The knowledge about her ancestor's good intentions for the plane strengthened her resolve. If her ancestor could sacrifice his friends, his love life, and his peace for the good of the battle sage monkeys, she too must be able to sacrifice a love that has a low probability of being realized.
That was to be the end of it. Unfortunately, it led her to this problem. Soverick wants to kill her now and he doesn't want to listen to her own side of the story. She doesn't know if it will if Soverick knows how difficult it was for her but she has to try everything in the face of death.
The most unpleasant factor about the problem that she has gotten herself into is that Soverick cannot lose. The two of them are supposed to be after each other's life but she can't kill him. A world god already gave it a fair shot and still failed. What can she do then?
Killing someone that is after your life is the best solution to get rid of that problem entirely but killing Soverick is not a solution at all. She has to find a way to convince him or change his mind. That's why she tried to talk to him today.
The alternative is to make herself immortal. But will Soverick wait for her to become an Origin god before he comes to kill her? The darkness in her future vision indicates that he won't wait. She is in a very sticky situation and it is all because her ancestor decided to replace Soverick.
"At least, today went well." She said to encourage herself.
She was the one that planned for the flying fortresses to interfere in the earlier heist. She has been scrying the people related to Soverick since she still can't scry him. So she found out that something bad was going to happen to Hadrick and it will benefit Soverick somehow. So she decided to sabotage the heist. Now a world god will owe her a favor for the help that she rendered in a critical time of need.
