GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 120 Pride Goeth Before A Fall.

A notification of high priority attracted the attention of the clone of will. It examined the information and found out about Soverick's new record. Attached to the notification of the record-breaking is a file created by the supervisor of the family affairs department. It contained some personal information about soverick.

The will was shocked just like the main body would have been when it found out the details of the record. Unlike the AI, the will could feel shocked, and it felt it again when it found out that Soverick had nine Transcendent talents.

"Wow, incredible, just wow." The pink clone of Will exclaimed.

"Must tell Shaston. She will want to see this." It decided. The record-breaking wouldn't interest the director but Soverick's talent will. It is a combination of talents that she has been looking for, for a long time.

ραпdα Йᴏνêl(сòm) "Wake up you sleepy brat. There's something for your lazy ass to do." The will screamed mentally at the sleeping fairy.

The fist-sized fairy yawned. A physical disturbance might not wake her up but a sledgehammer pounding on her mind will do the trick.

"What is it?" Shaston inquired.

She didn't feel angry at being woken up like that. She knew her clone would only wake her up when she herself would have deemed it necessary, and that's how she likes to wake people up too. With a shrill scream that will wreck all the effects of a sound sleep.

"Check this out. You have to see it. You have to see this." The pink will was bouncing up and down in happiness. Shaston became intrigued immediately. What could make her so perky? She had to find out.

"Must be good." She said as she flew over to check the notification on the virtual screen. Shaston began to bounce too. The information made her truly happy.

"Finally. I will finally be able to complete my last wish. I didn't think it was possible but here it is. Someone with 9 talents has appeared." The forest around her began to sway as if they were happy for her. It wasn't voluntary though, they had to sway, they were already infected with her powers and not to be influenced by her emotions.

"We would have to watch him for now." The will said.

"Yes, he isn't ready yet. He would need to reach the mana body stage before I can teach him anything." Shaston agreed.

Shaston is so happy because she has finally found a worthy candidate to leave her legacy to.

Shaston is dying. Like all the animals that have died in this small world because of her powers, she will die too. Unlike the animals, her powers aren't killing her. She is like a dying star, burning with increased brightness during its last breath only to explode in a supernova in death. It is unfortunate, but she can't control her powers, so it is unavoidable.

Her power is constantly leaking out of her with her life essence. Her situation is quite common amongst titans of law, but there is no cure for her condition. It is the reality of the world that not all titans become Sovereigns. Some titans become a manifestation of their powers and return to the world.please visit panda-:)ɴᴏᴠᴇ1.co)m

Shaston is a very talented battle sage monkey, evident by the fact that she became a titan of law, but even more than that is the fact that she created a path of power by using 6 elements to form her concept. As you know, comprehension of law ends at the level of a king of law, then a king must forge his path by attempting to form the beginnings of a concept. This is done by causing the stars of law within their origin to explode, then they will use the debris of the explosion to create a cloud of concept.

A king that explodes a single star has a higher chance of succeeding, it means he or she used a single element to form the cloud of concept. Each star within the Origin core of a king is formed by using immense origin energy bonded together with the law they comprehended.

The difficulty of breaking through increases with the more stars that are exploded. A single star might afford a chance of success of just 10%, each subsequent star will reduce that chance at a rate depending on the complexity of the concept that is being created.

Shaston, like some other geniuses that think they are as talented as the realm lord, tried to recreate his feat. They did it either out of pride in themselves or refusal to admit the superiority of the realm lord or a simple naive belief that they too can do it. Maybe their mother told them that they can do what the realm lord did if they put in enough effort.

Most of these foolish people die trying to become titans of law and they take their foolish beliefs with them to the grave. Some of them succeed either through sheer luck or unrelenting effort, but they come to regret their decision after succeeding.

A titan cannot leave forever, their core will continue to leak uncontrollably until they become a sovereign and gain control of their Origin core. The rate at which this leak occurs is dependent on the amount of power present within the core and the amount of restraint placed on the core. It has been mentioned that the higher the restraint, the lower the chance of ever becoming a sovereign.

Shaston is very talented. And this talent came with pride. She aimed to create a power she called virtual creation. A path that enables the transformation of illusion into reality. The manifestation of thoughts and emotions into the physical world. In a sense, it is similar to the power of world gods. But world gods achieve this by using the power of an entire world to fuel their will. In her foolishness, she hoped to use her puny soul to fuel this power instead. She is talented but she was stupid.

It's not as if she wasn't warned by well-wishing ancestors that were Origin gods. The achievement of the realm lord might seem small now, but one must remember that none had been able to achieve it before him. The difficulty of the requirement to become the realm lord cannot be understated, it is also one of the requirements to become a world god. The difference is that to become a realm lord, one must achieve it as a sovereign, while to become a world god one must achieve it as an origin god. It is much easier for Origin gods to meet that requirement, even still, world gods are still rare. Even though world gods are rare, they are still more than the number of realm lords present in the entire void universe.

So a clueless person should be able to realize that there is more to that achievement than meets the eye. It is foolishness to think you know how the realm lord did it and it is hubris to claim you can do it yourself. A smart man knows his strength, a smarter man knows his weakness, but the smartest man knows the limit of his strength.

There are examples of great men who knew their limits. The tyrant divine dragon became an origin god by fusing the laws of fire and lightning. The Ghastorix ancestor by using Lightning and destruction. The little tyrant became an origin god by using just space, his powers have skyrocketed due to him meeting the requirements to become a world god. Legion became an origin god using just life and he broke the limits of reincarnation with his knowledge. Guntu became an origin god using just destruction. All these great men knew their limits, they acted within the boundaries of it and it didn't take away from their greatness.

Destruction is very difficult to acquire without fusing at least 4 laws but Guntu had the advantage of his bloodline. Ghastorix gained Destruction through the baptism of destruction lightning when he was trying to protect his partner. The amount of laws used to form the concept isn't the most important factor that determines its subsequent power. It is the complexity of the concept itself. It is just that the higher the number of laws, the more complex the concept but a highly complex concept can still be created by a single law.

It is also much easier for those with highly complex concepts to become world gods. But the complexity of a Concept is something better left to origin gods to acquire, as long as one is able to become an origin god, they will have eternal life to achieve it. They will also have a greatly improved affinity to laws to make it easier for them.

Shaston knew her strength. She knew her weakness, but she didn't know the limit of her strength. That's why she succeeded in becoming a titan of law, but she can't go further than this. She has reached her limit. Her puny soul tried to take on the mantle of a world god and failed. Her puny soul broke under the burden of a greatness beyond her reach, beyond her station. But there's no turning back now, she will have to pay for the cost of failure with her very life.

She had said 'Greatness is meant to be taken not granted to.' when her elders told her to exercise restraint. She was right in a way, but she forgot that you have to be able to stomach what greatness you have taken.
