GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Ragnarok did his part very well too. He acted surprised and intent on getting the World Spark. They successfully baited CARNAGE into the trap that they had prepared for him.

"What a rush." Legion-5 said. "We would have been in big trouble if something had gone wrong. And we are still in danger. I doubt you can protect us from a world-ender."

Legion-7 replied solemnly, "I can't. I still can't handle Aeternus's Chaos energy. A demon god is a threat to me until I unite with our origin. I am certain that there is nothing I can do to protect us from a world-ender. We would surely need a supreme law if we are to survive CARNAGE's breakout from the world engine"

Legion-5 sighed. "Should we be doing this even if we can? The plan almost doomed us and we are still playing with fire."

Soverick interjected. "I said it was going to work and it did. This is going to work too so what are you worried about?"

Legion-5 chuckled and rolled his eyes. "I know. You saw everything and you planned for it. Our great seer."

His voice was laced with sarcasm but Soverick ignored it and confirmed with pride, "I did see it. I also planned for failure. CARNAGE can't escape. At least not on his own."

Soverick is very confident for an Origin god who dares to mess with something world gods wouldn't want to mess with. This is because of his powerful eyes.

Since he didn't need to hide under the gaze of world gods anymore and had lost his title, he didn't need to keep hiding his strength. Especially not when Legion needs it the most. So he created his concept and became an Origin god.

The law of fate on its own is a law that specializes in seeing the future. The future is indeterminate so sensing it much less seeing it is very difficult. One would need a high law to do that.

With the law of fate, one can do something they don't know how to do because there is a possibility of doing it in the future. As long as something is possible for them to achieve, the wielders of fate can bring it to fruition.

He used the high law of fate and also causality for his concept. Causality is about linking the present and the past. With Causality, one can find out what happened in the past to create the present.

It is the specialization of the actions of the past leading to the effect of the present and the actions of the present leading to the effects of the future. With Causality, one can achieve something they shouldn't be able to do simply because someone else has done it before.

As if that isn't enough, which is not strange for Soverick, he also used the law of time in addition to fate and Causality. The law of time specializes on the present. It brings the effect or events of the future or the past into the present.

One might say the law of time is the combination of Fate and Causality and they would be right. Unfortunately, time is more difficult to comprehend and use. This is because of the element of randomness.

This randomness comes from the ability to bring the future to the present. Because the future is uncertain, the effect of this ability is also uncertain.

There's another randomness created when someone is attempting to change the past or bring the present to the past. This randomness is so great that the law of order actively opposes it. It is why time travel is banned in the void universe.

In fact, manipulating time on a significant scale in the void universe has also been banned. No one can use the law of time on other Origin gods. The void universe usually only maintains their immortality but it will interfere with such a thing.

This ban made his self-created techniques mostly useless. He can only use them on those who haven't become one with their concepts. Fortunately, the concept for his eyes doesn't need the law of time to work on others.

So the law of time is crippled despite being powerful. But with the addition of fate and Causality, most of its abilities have been increased. When combined with the law of space and all the other laws that Legion has comprehended, it helped Soverick to create an eye that can see everything there is to see.

So Soverick was confident of the success of their plan and he is not ashamed to state it. In fact, he becomes quite angry when the success of his plans is questioned. Unfortunately, he can't do anything to Legion like putting them in an artifact that will take over their existence and use them as a weapon.

Ghaster's painful experience with the living artifact might have been a one-time thing, but the howls and screams of demons and even Origin gods participating in Helios's and the Tree father's experiment have proven that there are many things worse than death.

Soverick assured them, "There was nothing to worry about and there is very little to worry about in the future. The prison we built for CARNAGE is not so easy to break. And even if it does break out, the first sage will be there to take most of the heat for us."

Legion-5 grumbled, "Very little problem to worry about he says."

Legion-2 ignored his grumbling.

Legion-7 spoke, "Fortunately the plan didn't fail and we didn't have to use your contingency plan. I am very sure that the first sage would not like the outcome of your contingency plan."

Soverick shrugged, "We will just hide in the realm. He won't be able to do anything to us then no matter how angry he is."

Soverick is always prepared. He didn't learn that lesson from the first sage. It is a trait of Legion as a whole. His all-seeing eyes has only made that trait more effective and efficient.
