GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?



Soverick's eye turned pink completely. He was frozen in his action of gripping her neck. The entire pink domain entered his body and dug into his consciousness seeking to control it. It made her even more happy.

A domain of a transcendent is an area under their control. They can use their domain for numerous things but the only way it can affect another transcendent so seriously is if it is enforced by a law. In the case of this lady, she has managed to comprehend the equivalent of the law of illusion in this world fragment and she is trying to use it to gain control of Soverick.

Soverick could have defended against her easily but he allowed her to do what she wanted. He opened his consciousness for her domain to enter without resistance. Then her consciousness flowed from her body into his. It is how she gains control of her thralls. She will modify their consciousness with hers so they will always obey her. It is how she managed to accumulate her faction. Her subordinates and helpers didn't follow her willingly.

She continued to guffaw. "Look at me now. They said I shouldn't do it. They said it was a bad idea. Have I not done it now? Truly, victory favors the bold."

Her aim for this competition is Soverick and only Soverick. She comes from a prestigious bloodline that manipulates people against their will. That's another way of saying they enslave people. Soverick is a big celebrity. He is strong, talented, and very special. It makes him an obstacle to overcome. Or in this case, it makes him a challenging target to enslave. 

She is not the only one in her family who wished to control the child of the plane. But she is the only that decided to go through with it and attempt it during this competition. Everyone else had too much common sense, just a healthy amount of fear and a set of working life-preservation instincts which prevented them from actually going through with their silly wish. 

Those good qualities of theirs held them back. It protected them from danger and also prevented them from getting the success that she has just acquired. They will regret their decision when they hear of what she has accomplished. She can just imagine their stupid faces being morphed by intense jealousy. It amused her to no end and made her laugh louder.

Her laughter got cut shut when she finally reached his consciousness. She found Soverick's consciousness to be like an abyss and at the bottom of the abyss is a grotesque entity with multiple eyes. This entity is all eyes around a single giant eye and black misshapen flesh. The single giant eyeball has many eyes on its ugly body. It looks like a deformed demon beholder.

This abomination said to her, "You have seen what you shouldn't see. Don't worry. It is not an offense. I allowed it. It is because you will be useful. You will be very useful."

Then the abomination chuckled evilly. The sound it made crashed against her consciousness in a most unpleasant manner. The abyss began to churn and spin like quicksand. Its spinning pulled on her consciousness to bring her towards the abomination within Sovericks consciousness.

"Nooooo." She screamed and tried to return to her body but there is no way back.

Soverick had shut down the opening in his consciousness. She couldn't escape. She continued to fall down the abyss kicking and screaming while the demonic entity reached out with tentacles to grab and pull her down. She eventually fell down to the bottom of the abyss and the abomination swallowed her for its nefarious purpose.

Their battle of consciousness took a while but it was an instant in the world. She had just laughed after gaining access to his consciousness. Then her purple eyes dimmed and her body began breaking down. Pink fumes rose from her body as if she is evaporating. Her entire body turned into pink smoke that drifted away with the wind.

"Be careful what you wish for." He said with a sneer as he gazed at the pink smoke.

The pink in his eye has disappeared completely. All traces of her in the physical world of manifestation is now gone. The last bit of her is within his consciousness where it will be put to good use by Legion-7. It is not an enviable fate at all.

She could have fought him with the others and had a taste of his WRAITH OF DEATH: GHOST OF THE FUTURE. It is a move that reflects the damage that a future version of his enemies will suffer if he fought them. It is a lazy move best used on enemies that are too weak for him to bother with. 

Using it on dangerous entities that can actually harm him can lead to a backlash because he too can suffer in such a fight. He won't be able to heal that backlash because he won't have the time to just like those two. So it is very dangerous to use. 

The two fools that came to fight him are harmless so he used it on them. He could have used it on her too with the worst that would have happened to her being that she loses her weapon and her rank 9 power like those two. But she decided to bite more than she can chew and lost her soul in the process. The two of them might be fools but the one that wanted to enslave him is the foolish clown. She is worse than a fool.

He shook his head. "What a clown. She tried to control me. Me of all people. It would have worked as a not-so-funny joke that she tells but she actually tried to go through with it. This is Stelios all over again except more stupid."

She is not the first person to try and possess or enslave a clone of Legion. In fact, some have succeeded. Legion-7 has experienced slavery personally. But this female battle sage monkey has not reached the level required to enslave him.
