GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 537 The Mystery Of The Sheets.

"Hmm. This has to be intentional. But why?" He said in wonder and confusion.

The more he inspected the 6 sheets of paper, the more he is certain that their weirdness is intentional. Each of the particularly odd elements are also in the same quantity as the others in each paper.

It might be a coincidence that two different elements which are highest in two papers are of the same quantity but it is unlikely that it is a coincidence in 6 sheets of paper. He has a rather convincing reason to believe that it is not random but why would someone do it?

pαndα`noνɐ1~сoМ Most glaring of all is that the elements are vibrating in sync too. It might be invisible to other battle sage monkeys but it is clear to him. He can see the fluctuations of mana with his eyes. Fire mana will reach its crest and then begin to fall. Earth, water, and the others will reach their crest in the period that fire is falling to the trough of its wavelength. All of them will reach the crest by the time fire reaches its trough, rises, and is about to reach its crest again. Then the cycle will start again.

All his eyes glowed with realization, "This is order."

If by chance, it is a coincidence that all six high elements have the same quantity, it is definitely not a chance that they are synchronized like this. Their behavior suggests order. These sheets of paper are not natural. If they are natural they should be chaotic. But their behavior is too orderly. There is an order to their behavior that cannot be found in nature. That means that they were made this way intentionally by someone. It roused his curiosity.

His eyes began working on deciphering the information held within the mana that makes up the papers. Unlike Salvini, he is not a hack. He doesn't prepare for random future events. He predicts them based on solid data and he acquires this data through his eyes.

What she did is the only thing that she can do since she can't foretell his actions. He became more difficult to scry ever since he became the child of the plane. It is one of the benefits of that title. She couldn't scry him before because she is weak and he has an Origin soul. Origin gods have broken the strings of fate on them by overcoming death. It will take an Origin god with a specialized concept to see anything about the future of another Origin god.

Then he became the child of the plane and had his fate intertwined with that of the plane. That means anyone that tries to predict him will be looking at the billions of lives in the plane. They will have to sift through the deluge of information of everyone in the plane to get anything out of him. Now, even if Salvini does become an origin god, she wouldn't be powerful enough to predict his actions.

Those with the eyes of sages foretell the future or bring to pass a favorable future through their actions since they can foretell the effects of their actions. He on the other hand cannot foretell the future, at least not yet. But he can tell the present with utmost certainty and he can read the past through the marks they have left in mana. His eyes can trace the cause of the past to the effect of the present.

Mana is everything and everything that occurs involves mana. He can communicate with mana so he knows about things that are happening with mana and have happened with mana. It is how he was able to tell how long she spent trying to prepare for his meeting. Some mana clung to her and he could communicate with them. It also means he knows a lot of things about people that they will rather keep secret.

He can read the information that occurred thousands of years ago but that doesn't mean he can read everything. Mana itself is not stable. It is a vessel for change so it changes pretty easily. Mana also doesn't stay in a single place. It ebbs and flows and mixes with other streams of mana thereby scattering the marks of history all over the place. If not for the law of causality, then it will be nearly impossible to trace past events with mana.

With the law of causality, he can form links with the other marks of an event left in mana wherever they may be. Even then, some events are still untraceable because they leave faint marks in mana that fade with time as opposed to some events that leave glaring marks in mana.

Like eating and killing someone. They have different levels of mana significance. Eating leaves a very faint mark while killing leaves a deep mark in the history of mana. Killing someone doesn't leave a deep mark because it is a significant act as compared to eating. The general rule is that if the event is mana intensive, then it will have higher longevity.

The act of killing is mana intensive. The spells that you use to kill or the special mana weapons used will leave long-lasting trails. Then there is the amount of mana that is released into the environment upon the death of someone. All of these make the act of taking the life of someone easy for him to see. Eating something that is full of mana will also leave long-lasting trails.

He reads those events and then uses that information to predict the future. If you know the past and learn from it, then you will be able to predict the future because more often than expected, events always come in a full circle. The start of a thing is similar to its end. If the end and the beginning are not alike, then they are not the end or beginning. The universe will end just like it started. It might be in reverse but they are both similar.
