GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

1181 Fear Of The Unknown.

He realized something and he couldn't help but feel amused.

He thought to himself in amusement, "They didn't need to put us in control of the lives of the slaves but they did."

It seems to him that these slaves are truly important for the survival of the blood crucible. Any irascible Shapiro that kills them might regret it. But their guides still gave the young and rash Shapiros power over the lives of the five. He couldn't help but think about the food fight that happened during their feeding sessions.

He thought to himself, "They might just regret it this time around."

He was then taken to the end of the hall with his five slaves. There was a door at the end that only he and the slaves entered. His guide wished him well and turned back. The door slammed shut and was disconnected from the hall. Another door replaced the one that was closed. It will lead to another room and not the hall he came from.

As for him, he looked around at his room and at the memory crystal he was given. The memory crystal contains all the information he needs to know about the blood crucible. He extended his divine sense into it and absorbed the knowledge within it. It took him less than a second to do so. Then he began to laugh.

"So that is it." He said as he laughed.

"I was scared for nothing."

The fear of the unknown is the greatest fear. He was afraid of the blood crucible earlier because it sounded dangerous and because he didn't know what it entailed. Now he knows what the blood crucible is and why he shouldn't be afraid of it.

He also knows how the supreme beast can have so many divine abilities while he only has one. He knows why their divine ability of shape-shifting became the supreme ability to use many divine abilities.

He said to his caretaker, "Get me something to eat. Keep it coming until I say otherwise."

To his history teacher, he said, "Bring all the memory crystals you have. I will ask you questions if I don't understand anything."

His history teacher nodded despite having some reservations about his order. The old ram man thinks he should take things slowly but he can't refuse the order of his young master so soon for fear of death.

Then Legion-5 said to his martial arts teacher, "Go and spend your time somewhere else with the magic teacher. I will call you if I need you for anything."

The old martial teacher actually spoke back. He asked, "When will that be? I recommend that we start your training as soon as possible. We have less than 3 months to prepare you for the blood crucible. That is very short but we can surely put in some progress if we spend all of our time training. Your magic teacher can also help improve your magic resistance even if you can't learn how to use spells."

He glanced at the old male and said, "Do as I say. And don't ever question me again. Do you understand me? It is best that you know your place."

The old man nodded and said, "I apologize my lord. Forgive my impudence."

He turned to the last slave, "You will be in charge of cleaning after me. I am not interested in relieving any sexual urges yet. Just make sure this whole building is clean and help the cook to prepare my food. I have a feeling that it will be at least a two-

man job."

The female servant nodded hastily and ran to join his caretaker. He watched her go for a while before he shifted his attention to examine his environment. His servant is someone with a succubus bloodline. She didn't happen by chance. She was bred this way and trained on how to use her bloodline advantages. Her purpose is clear to him but he is not interested in sex.

Then he went to the dining room and sat down to wait for his food. He switched on the screen on the wall. The entire wall lit up and showed a fighting ring. It is a small round arena with a green field of grass and a barrier around it.

There are people fighting to the death there right now. They are Shapiros like him. Only one of them will survive. For someone to survive the blood crucible, they must fight 8 increasingly stronger enemies and survive.

He snickered when he saw how the Shapiros were fighting. "What dangerous blood crucible. I can't believe I was ever scared of it. They fight worse than Ghaster as a baby."

The two fighters are mana entities but they are fighting worse than battle sage monkeys that are babies. They will surely beat battle sage monkeys that are babies like Ghaster but that's only because they are much stronger than babies. They are mana entities after all. But their fighting skill is abysmal.

It is not their fault either. They don't have bloodlines and ancestral memories or instincts. The fighting skills they have is what they have learned in just a few months at most. So they have tried their best with the time that they have been given. But he can't take them seriously at all.

His 5 origin cycles of fighting experience from Gehaldirah are already enough to topple them. He doesn't need the fighting skills that Soverick has accumulated. That's why he won't bother to train. He would rather spend time on eating. His divine ability ensures that he will get stronger the more he eats. That is more efficient, effective, and worthwhile than training. It makes eating a better use of his time.

Of course, his current actions look like that of a fool to those who are watching him. Instead of training, he has taken to eating. He seems like a wastrel who doesn't realize how much danger he is in. Their expectations for his survival fell through the roof.
