GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?
1266 Self Harm.
One of the Supreme Beasts suggested, "Let's test the waters first and make sure this is not a trap. We will take advantage of the situation if the opportunity arises."
The Supreme Beasts decided to move against this army. It is for purely selfish reasons. They are not doing so to help Legion-5 resist oppression. They attacked the army from every direction.
Meanwhile, Legion-5 remained in his base examining the staff he took.
Legion-7 asked, "Are you not going to interfere? Those Supreme Beasts are taking your points?"
Legion-5 shrugged. "I must keep my word for the sake of my honor. I won't take from them."
Legion-7 chuckled. "What honor? You will just take back your points through extortion."
"Stealing is the best way to get rich. Working hard is for the sheep." Legion-5 agreed.
His hand clasped the staff tightly as he said, "I have examined it physically. There should not be any problem with assimilating it. My divine ability can do so."
Then he asked, "What about you? What did you find?"
Legion-7 replied, "The staff contains divinity and it is very strong. I should be able to devour it even though it belongs to a Celestial."
"That's great. It means that I can safely assimilate the divinity without becoming a god. I have a good feeling about the plan."
"You are being overly optimistic. You might not be able to start the assimilation at all. The Will of a Celestial in the divinity will resist you."
Legion-5 didn't calm down. "Just imagine what could happen if I fuse the path of gods, demons, and the path of perfection. I will be combining divinity, Authority, and dragon heart together. It will be like when we created the shards of power. My own shard of power hasn't helped me at all but this should work out this time. Something must happen. If nothing happens, then using a world seed to breakthrough instead of origin essence should lead to something."
He is looking forward to what will happen. He is sure that it should lead to something. However, he doesn't know what will happen and Legion-7 isn't so optimistic that it will be good. His fears are warranted considering the level of powerful items he is messing with.
He warned Legion-5, "I hope you won't kill yourself. That is more likely to happen if you try to use a world seed. That thing is too strong for anything not immortal to withstand. This might not work out and you might not break any rules. But even if you do break a rule, that doesn't mean you will survive it. We almost died the last time we messed around with something we shouldn't do."
That didn't help at all. Legion-5 remained optimistic. "I think we must get the divine ability of giants of order as quickly as possible. The order contained within it is the reason Helios turned into a star. I want to turn into something that breaks the rules so we must have it. Finish with the fusion of the crystal space butterfly as soon as possible."
Legion-7 groaned. "I almost don't want to."
But he continued with it. Actually, he is not the only one who thinks that what Legion-5 is planning is very dangerous. Most clones of Legion do too. It is not as dangerous as allowing Chaos energy to enter their mind network and messing with it to create a singularity. But it is dangerous enough and Legion-5 is the host for Legion-7. Anything that goes wrong with him will affect Legion-7 and to some extent, the rest of them that have been assimilated by Legion-7.
But they also understand that those who conform to the natural order of things will be mediocre. Only by jumping out of the pool of mediocrity can greatness be achieved. Besides, as long as the situation doesn't reach the extreme of danger like the previous time, they should be able to resurrect him.
So Legion-5 went ahead with assimilating the staff. What he did was simple. He simply pushed the staff into his body. It is the same way he tries to assimilate stones and weapons. His body shifted to take on the properties of divinity contained body shifted to take on the properties of divinity contained within the staff.
"Rawwwwww!"
A roar of anger filled his mind. It came from the staff. The staff contained the divinity of the Celestial of Light so it contained his divine Will as well. It is a very powerful divine will too. It clashed with his consciousness with a stubbornness not to be defeated.
The Celestial roared with a mocking tone, "You fool! Has no one ever told you that you have the perfect body for possession?"
Then he said with excitement, "It seems you want to kill yourself. I will oblige you."
Legion-5 felt his existence being invaded by the Will of the Celestial while the divinity in the staff left the staff. The divinity came out as a clump of light and rushed towards his inner world. His body was also shining brightly and divine power which is exclusive to gods was fluctuating from his body.
Legion-5 has not felt this kind of sensation since Helios had the mental showdown with Stelios. The conditions are different but it is clear to him that the Celestial wants to turn him into a clone.
Of course, something like that is not going to be allowed to happen. The Mechanical Emperor who was watching groaned. "Does this kid have a death wish?" He asked himself.
00:35
He expected trouble from the Shadow of Despair and he has been getting a lot of it but this trouble has gone too far. Agrivo839,371,456A has gone from harming others to harming himself.
As the Invigilator and protector of the young Supreme Beasts, he can't watch on while something like this happens so moves into action. A black flame appeared within Legion-5's plane. Its appearance was silent and if Legion-5 didn't have Legion-7 he wouldn't know that someone had invaded his base.
