GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?



The first sage asked himself, "But why?"

It should be a scheme against him but he can't figure out the purpose. He is cunning and smart but he cannot phantom what purpose something like that would be done. Surely it is possible. A world god could do it but what would the world god have to gain from doing it?

He too could go and court death to invite a world-ender into his inner world and then use another world god's Supreme law to beat the world-ender to death while simultaneously warping the coefficients of time and space in his world. 

So yes, he could do it. But for what purpose? He can't fantom that. The situation doesn't feel like something that happened by chance. So someone did that intentionally and he doesn't know why. That is the most grating thing about this situation. He doesn't like ignorance. If he can't even guess the motive and what is to be gained, how is he to predict outcomes?

"That aside. Something has to be done about this. I may not know why but I cannot let this continue."

He can break the fog blocking his perception and find where his Supreme law is. He would be able to withdraw his supreme law then. But that would also mean that the world-ender would be free to trace his supreme law back to his current world. 

He can't have that right now. A war between him and the world-ender had already started the moment they made contact. This war is unlikely to end unless his world gets destroyed. He might be able to avoid that fate but he will need time for preparation. So he refrained from breaking the fog yet. 

He moved into action with that serene smile on his face. What he saw has cleared things up for him. There is only one being that he has seen in his future vision as a star. It has helped to narrow down the culprits and those involved in this scheme. 

He is more relaxed now. In fact, he is looking forward to the future. The fear of the unknown is the greatest fear. But if it is not unknown, then there is nothing to fear.

A VERY LONG TIME AGO IN A FARAWAY LOCATION ON A SMALL ROCK FLOATING AROUND A STAR.

Jason is standing above the world center. It is not the tallest building in the world and neither is it at the center of the world. But it is the location of the highest seat of power on the planet. Anyone who has access to this building is truly an important person in the grand scheme of the planet and beyond. So standing atop it feels like standing at the top of the world. Or so Jason used to think it felt like. 

"Feels like any other ordinary building now." He muttered to himself. "And I am at the top of the world."

Beneath him for about a kilometer is the base of the world center. There is an entire city built around the world center so he can see buildings and people everywhere he looks. And everywhere he looks, he sees a thriving society. This vigor and success are not made apparent in the sight of high-rising buildings expensive cars or people wearing expensive clothing. No, this vigor can be seen in the lack of the homeless, beggars, or the jobless.

This society is a society that has eliminated unemployment at all levels. World hunger has been defeated. In fact, starvation is a long-forgotten phenomenon. And it is all due to him. But even this sight of his greatest achievements feels drab and boring now.

"Nothing pleases me anymore. I think it is time I leave." He said aloud. 

"Leave and go where, sir?" his assistant Todd asked.

It was then that he remembered that he was not alone. But that didn't change his mood. The world has lost its color. He has to find what he is looking for because this world is no longer good enough for him.
