GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Legion-7 opposed once again. "What about the differences in composition? Authority is composed of cosmic energy and a facet of the law of order. Seeds of power are made of cosmic energy and a concept composed of a variety of laws. They are not the same."

If Helios could roll his eyes he would. It would make for an amusing sight. Unfortunately, he is a star. Rolling his eyes would be amusing for the same reason why he can't roll his eyes. He doesn't have eyes. 

For now, he settled with expressing his disagreement by saying, "Both Authority and Seeds of power are made of cosmic energy and laws. It is that simple. Seeds of power are different from each other just as authority is made of different facets of the law of order. No seed of power is the same and no Authority is the same. They possess the same differences so they should be the same."

Aeternus supplied, "And don't forget the Authority of demon kings. They are all made from different facets of the law of Chaos. But they are the same apart from little differences."

"My point exactly." Both Helios and the dragon clone said at the same time.

Legion-7 didn't take a step back. "But that difference is not insignificant. I should know. I have eaten a lot of both types. Authority is made from Supreme laws while seeds of power are made from derived laws of order."

Then they began to argue. Thoughts and opinions swarmed through their minds in harmony despite their passionate disagreement. It is as if they are building a structure with conflicting ideas. 

Each one of them has a different perspective of the foundation of this structure and their opinion of what the structure should be. They make changes to this mental structure by submitting their perspective. They remove and add certain ideas at different thought cycles. They reject or accept several opinions until the structure is complete. They increase their overall understanding of the subject matter this way. 

This difference of opinion is because even though they have the same memories, they do not have the same consciousness. Memories are not the same as experiences. They all have different experiences which causes them to be different. 

The most impactful difference is the body that they reincarnated with. They each reincarnated in different bodies or different energies and fused with it to create a new consciousness different from the original one. So they have different perspectives on everything but by bringing these different perspectives together, they form a better whole.

The only two not joining in the argument are Legion 1 and Legion 2. Legion 1 usually joins in the thought process but he is too tired right now. That forging attempt took the most toil out of him. He provided the soul force that they used for the 14 years of the recent experiment so his mind is taxed. 

He also had to bear the brunt when the budding law matrix collapsed. The backlash to his Origin core is quite severe. Thankfully his soul is not completely fused with his inner world. If not, he might have to go to sleep for a while.

Soverick on the other hand didn't join because he doesn't join their arguments. He is the impartial judge and arbiter. His job is to make sure that the mental structure that they are building doesn't collapse. 

He uses his divine ability to determine the best direction that they should take based on what the others have suggested. He determines what is added and what is removed from the mental structure. They will do this until the mental structure has been completed.

This is a division of labor. It is like how the tree father was the only one to inspect the concept that they made up close. The other three didn't interact with it until they were sure that it was safe. 

The tree father himself only went forward after Soverick had done a cursory inspection with his eyes. Then he used his control of the inner world as the Celestial hybrid of this world to guard against any accident. That meant that if anything had gone wrong with the concept, Legion-1 would have borne the brunt again. 

They all work together and use both their strength and weaknesses to create something bigger than a single one of them. A world fragment is one of those things that is bigger than any one of them. It is what they just tried and failed to build. Soverick felt he had to remind them of the main issue so that they don't get derailed.

So he said, "We created a seed of power without actually going through the deadly process of trying to break through to become titans of laws. It is a happy outcome. But it is not the outcome we wanted."

"How about we fixate on the fact that we just created Authority? How is that not breaking a tenet of the universe?" Legion-7 diverted the topic of the conversation.

Helios agreed. "That's true. It may be because we didn't actually build Authority. What we built is a concept. We need the law of order and its permission to build Authority. We clearly don't have those."

"How is the comprehension going for you?" Aeternus asked Helios. 

"It is slow, but I'll still beat you to the punch," Helios replied lightly. 

Aeternus chuckled. "It is not exactly an achievement. You have everyone's help to decipher what you sense meanwhile there is nothing to decipher about Chaos."

Soverick sighed at that. "There has to be a pattern to it that you don't see. I might be able to see the pattern if I see pure Chaos."

"But I need to master the law of Chaos if I am to project pure Chaos for you to see. So you can't see pure Chaos and help me comprehend it unless I comprehend it first." Aeternus replied. 

Legion-7 added. "Supreme laws are too dangerous. The Chaos law is more so than others. I wouldn't even eat it if it were offered to me."
