Greed: All For What?



Some demon gods decided to take PRIDE up on its challenge. They also attacked the barrier to see what was so difficult about it.

LUST's whip, made of soft and highly infectious energy, failed to harm or adhere to the barrier. GLUTTONY's corrosive energy failed to corrode the transparent barrier too.

SLOTH didn't bother to try because it was sleeping. Besides, its energy is not good for attacking. The other demon gods didn't have its excuse, but they also decided not to bother so as not to embarrass themselves.

The demon gods finally realized that the barrier wasn't as simple as it seemed. They were late to that conclusion by half a step. Aeternus already knew its nature before he tried, so their failure didn't surprise him.

He recognized the barrier as being caused by the difference in spatial coordinates between the two realms. The two realms used to occupy different spaces in the void universe. They still do, but the space within them is aligning despite the physical difference in the location of the two realms.

The barrier might look transparent, but that's only because light can pass through it. It doesn't mean that the distance between the two realms is very close or that the light moved in a straight line.

In fact, the light that passes through it is old. What they can see through the barrier is the past of the Tyrant Realm. So to attempt to break through the barrier is to overcome differences in time and space.

That's why the barrier is not only protective in nature. It is more of a manifestation of a natural phenomenon. The realms haven't fused yet, so this barrier, being the manifestation of the difference in the spatial coordinates of the two realms, will remain.

He recognized it because it is the same type of barrier that they used to seal CARNAGE. He could tell immediately that he saw it, and he could confirm it after his Chaos energy succeeded in breaking it.

Ultimately, the Supreme Law of the demon gods only has the three aspects of Will, Matter, and Energy. They can't break this kind of barrier at all. They also might not be able to break it even if they become world-enders.

The demon gods turned to him again after they realized the uniqueness of his energy. They might not have his eyes, but they can tell that the barrier has the foundation of differences in spatial coordinates after coming into contact with it. This realization made some of them jealous and uneasy. But it made WRATH happy.

WRATH practically yelled at him, "Do it. Do it quickly."

If not for the fact that he is also bored and there is something to gain, then he wouldn't listen to WRATH.

He thought to himself, "Let it not be said that Legion only knows to ruin the plan of the realm lord."

The Tree Father has identified the weakness of the Tyrant race. The realm lord surely has too. In fact, the realm lord has taken advantage of it. This weakness will remain deadly even if the Tyrant race prepares for it. But it is best if the Tyrant race is caught off guard. For that, Aeternus is willing to help. He is magnanimous that way.

It is a kind of magnanimity that promises a generous reward, so he attacked the barrier again. But this time, he did so with more power. He formed a giant avatar out of Chaos energy that reached to the sky with four black, flaming clawed hands.

The avatar was a large mass of black energy given form. It didn't have eyes or a face. It didn't even have legs. It only had a torso that ended in a large tail coiled around Aeternus. But it was big. It was so big that it towered above Aeternus like a guardian spirit.

A single hand of the black avatar reached into the sky and pierced into the barrier. The claws on that hand cut through it like a hot knife through butter. Then the four arms reached into the hole they created and spread it apart.

The avatar then collapsed into energy that rushed into the expanded hole. The black energy turned into a hoop that stopped the hole from closing. This made fresh air from the Tyrant realm rush into the abyss with a hint of corruption.

WRATH roared happily. "And they say an abomination is not useful for anything."

Then it rushed into the hole in the sky. Its body is larger than the hole, so it had to squeeze in, but that didn't dampen its enthusiasm. Not even the vast array of enemies it found on the other side waiting for it could discourage it.

A demon god has never been afraid of fighting many enemies at once. Not even when the enemies are the famed Tyrants. Plus, the scream of fear that occurred due to its appearance was the boost to its ego that it needed to proceed to demolish all of them.

WRATH shouted at them, "Don't be afriad. Be angry."

----The Tyrant Realm. Before Aeternus broke the barrier between realms,

The Tyrant Race is a race of fighters. They were born from the union of war and strife, so they are not ones to shirk from a fight. Especially not when the fate of their realm hangs in the

balance.

They were waiting in the divine plane with confidence, not only to defend their realm but also to turn the tables on their invaders and invade the High Heaven Realm.

Their confidence is not baseless, seeing as they are the strongest beings in the realm. They even have the power of Origin gods without being Origin gods and some even have Supreme power at that.

The 100,000 Children of the Realms, with the power of Supreme Origin gods, had rallied all the other Tyrants and arrayed themselves in the divine plane, waiting for their enemies to invade.
