GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1208 The Tradition Of Protection.

Each young supreme beast doesn't even know their parents but it doesn't matter. The Supreme Alliance is all they need and the Supreme Alliance will do its best to take care of them until they achieve immortality. He can't ask for a better parent than them.

As long as a Supreme Beast is not an Origin god, then he or she is not yet fully matured in the eyes of the Supreme Alliance. They will dote on them until they achieve immortality. In that way, the return on their investment is certain.

"I hope you took everything that you might need."

Legion-5 replied, "I did."

His mentor reminded him, "Good. Tell me if we are going too fast or if you get nauseous."

"I'll do that." But he thought to himself, "What are you, my nanny?"

He can only lampoon inwardly. It is because he knows that this care for the young is more than just business. It is a tradition. It is their culture and Tanc830,428,723C is not his nanny.

This tradition started because of the enforcement of the Supreme Alliance for the protection of the young. Back then, the young were viewed as food, or at best, they were considered currency. So their enforcement received a lot of support from the young they protected and raised into Immortality.

Those immortals then repaid the kindness shown to them by protecting the next generation. This way, the protection of the young quickly became a habit for every Supreme beast. The Supreme Alliance was able to overthrow other organizations and gain total control of the race through this method.

There were other older and powerful organizations that governed Supreme beasts before the Supreme Alliance came along. Those organizations mocked the Supreme Alliance for coddling its members. They said they would grow up soft and weak.

Time as shown that they were wrong. The Supreme Alliance abolished the eating of the young and fostered the eating of other races. They proved that intra-race competition is not important for the creation of a strong race as long as there is the existence of inter-race competition.

Others would think the enslavement of other races is the foundation of the prosperity of the Supreme beasts. They would be wrong because the foundation is the tradition of the protection of the young. It is that and their powerful divine ability.

This tradition would be more exaggerated if there was bloodline and ancestral memories of the cannibalism of the young. Every young Supreme beast would be able to appreciate the care even better.

Even so, the tradition succeeded in proliferating across several generations despite the lack of bloodlines because of the actions and pride of the Supreme Alliance. Tanc830,428,723C's mentor took care of him and took pride in it, so Tanc830,428,723C too will take care of his charge and take pride in it.

Just thinking about it made Legion-5 more impressed with the Supreme Alliance. He thought about every race Legion had ever encountered but he couldn't find one that compares to the Supreme Alliance.

Legion-5 thought to himself, "This is even better than the unity of the racial council of the Virut plane. For supreme beasts, the supreme alliance is their creditor and benefactor. It is their parents and their home. It is their race and their community. What a doctrine."

Some might mock those who care for their young too much, but they won't do so for the Supreme Alliance. The care for their young is also a statement. They are a powerful, confident, and united race that goes out of their way to guard their young so jealously is a statement or warning to other races not to mess with them.

No race or entity that knows about this tradition will mess with defenseless and weak Supreme beasts that they happen to come across without fear of retribution from the Supreme Alliance. When they consider that the Supreme Alliance is not just a governing body, but also the entire race of Supreme beasts, then they have to be wary about taking advantage of a young Supreme beast.

It is as much a statement to outsiders as it is to the members of the Supreme Alliance. Every immortal Supreme beast knows the bottom line of the supreme beast so they aren't shocked or angry when the Supreme Alliance asks for them to go to war to rescue one of them or to avenge the death of a young one.

It makes them feel more loyalty to the Supreme Alliance. They know that they can always count on the Supreme Alliance. They are so united that even Legion-5 doesn't want to leave them despite knowing about their brainwashing since they were hatchlings and being aware that this protection is also a form of indoctrination.

Tanc830,428,723C said to him, "We aren't going to take the planar portal but I am taking you there to see something."

They soon got close to the planar portal. In front of it is a sea of bones. The bones are of different shapes and sizes. They obviously belong to different races. But they are all old and weathered.

"What do you think happened here?" Tanc830,428,723C asked him.

"A lot of people died here."

Tanc830,428,723C wasn't satisfied with his answer, "Be more specific. It could be that a lot of people were buried here. They could have died elsewhere. If they died here, why do you think they died here?"

It is not a difficult question for him. There are a lot of bones in front of the planar portal. It could be a weird burial tradition of the races in the plane but he doubts that they will choose to bury their dead in front of a doorway where people leave and enter the plane through.

"They might have died defending the plane. Races that care for their dead enough to bury them usually do so in safe and secluded places." He replied.
