GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Fenrir is not the weak transcendent that he made himself out to be. He was also not in any danger when the mountain collapsed on him. He was alright after all, and he could have dug himself out had Xigger not saved him.

If Ragnarok knew the true depths of the Emperor's power, then he wouldn't want to be anywhere near him. Then they wouldn't be able to speak and the Emperor won't be able to sell him on the idea of becoming a herald to the fountain of life. 

It is not Ragnarok's fault that he was fooled. He is cautious enough. But he relies on his perception and his perception can be fooled. Those who are proficient with the law of life are especially good at concealing the aura and signs of life. Ragnarok didn't know he was digging into the body of an ice golem and he didn't know that the Emperor he was speaking with was a king of law. 

Legion is usually sensitive to such things but Ragnarok is up against a worthy foe this time around. His foe could even fool Xigger and the demon god so it is not his fault that his perception was fooled. He is just outmatched. 

The difference in power rendered his caution and his knowledge about the ability to hide life signs irrelevant. He was oblivious to the trickery because they meant him no harm. There was no danger so his intuition didn't sense anything out of place. The fountain of life truly accounted for everything to fool him. 

Gehaldirah used to mask his life aura too. It is a technique that he uses with his concept of life to imitate the ability to hide that those with the concept of darkness have. The tree father can do it too and he did it to great effect in the Zargoth plane. Zernon was frustrated mightily by their antics. It is their turn to be frustrated now. 

Ragnarok doesn't know who is watching him, only that he is being watched. The fountain of life can be very close to him and he wouldn't even know. If he couldn't determine the strength of the Emperor who was right in front of him, then he wouldn't be able to identify the fountain of life that hid the life aura of the Emperor even if he were looking right at it. 

It is obvious now that the Emperor is not a weakling. He has stats that are at least 10 times the amount that a king of law who has only comprehended one law should have. He has the stats of the weakest Sovereigns of law. It would be accurate to say that he has done well for someone without a royal bloodline. 

Other transcendents would have been stagnant all these while in a plane without Origin energy but he used all the time that he had to himself and the origin energy he got from the fountain of life to comprehend laws. 

Ragnarok couldn't have suspected him of being a king of law. Someone without origin energy can't comprehend or use laws. He didn't know that the Emperor was already a representative of the fountain of life. The title of Heraldry granted the Emperor origin energy and life energy which boosted his Stats to an extraordinary level.

If not for Fenrir's poor talent and low connection to laws, he would be stronger as a result of the more than 100 origin cycles that he has lived. Poor connection to laws is not unusual in races with paragons. It is a detriment to having connections with other members of their race and getting a boost from it. That connection obscures their connection with the world.

Emperor Fenrir has the same amount of Authority one will see in a king of law who has comprehended one law. But he also has his boost from his POWER stat which normal kings of law don't have. As he is, he has a power rating of 10^13. That is gotten from multiplying any of his stats, by his Authority, and his boost from his POWER stat.

A normal but talented Sovereign will have a stat around 1,000,000,000 and an Authority of 10,000 which will result in a power rating of 10^13. That means it will take a fairly powerful Sovereign of law to match Fenrir in power. That is a spectacular amount of strength for a king of law. But he has to walk away from Emperor Rinoz, who is a transcendent, without initiating a fight because of the fear for his life.

Emperor Rinoz has been blessed. If there is such a thing as a child of destiny, or a child of heaven, or a child of blessing, then it would be Rinoz. Rinoz is a paragon so she has the power stat and gains power from connections. 

She is also the child of the plane. She, therefore, has a connection to every being in the plane. That means she is lucky to have boosts from trillions of connections. That is a tremendous amount of boost and a tremendous source of power. 

As if that isn't enough, the Will of the plane also made a deal with the fountain of life so that Rinoz would get access to origin energy to comprehend laws and life energy to grow her stats. So it is not a wonder that a king of law who is a paragon and backed down from a fight with a transcendent. 

Fenrir may have been the greatest Emperor, and even though the Warrogs are dregs of what they used to be in their heyday both in terms of quantity and quality, he never stood a chance against someone as special as Rinoz. 

He still wouldn't be able to match her if the population of Warrogs suddenly exploded from their meager numbers of a hundred million to billions and they formed an Empire with him. It is because Rinoz will grow stronger too with the increase in the population of Warrogs. It is but a losing game for anyone to compare to her.
