Greed: All For What?



These are all terribly unlikely things that no one thought was possible. At the very least, if anyone had done it, they certainly didn't mention it to anyone else. It is why no one will sell how to make contact with Cosmic sources. If they can do that, they will be able to become usurpers. So what can a world god offer an Usurper for their knowledge?

The answer is nothing. But the first sage found a way. That's why he gave Legion enough information about the fusion of the Tyrants so that they would cover its product and interfere in Monarch High Heaven's plan. Then he swooped in to rip off the then realm lord of information about Cosmic sources.

It is all part of his grand plan. It is not a perfect plan. He is currently struggling with a crucial step of the plan, and he can see that there will be others who will interfere with him.

He doesn't know how they will manage that. Maybe Legion will ask for their help, or maybe they will stumble onto his actions and interfere. But whatever reason it is they will have for interfering, he will not be caught off guard. And as long as he is not caught off guard, he can prepare for every possibility, even the possibility of failure.

Much of his plan will unfold in the future. As for now, he needs to use the information about True Chaos and the prototype of a Chaos weapon that Monarch High Heaven created to build the apocalypse weapon that he needs for his plan. And for that he needs Cosmic energy.

It is a dilemma that every world god has to face. Only special entities that managed to rise above, like the Dragon king Draco, don't need to go around searching for Cosmic energy.

"I think I have to swindle someone out of Cosmic energy. It is a pity that I can't cheat an Archon out of it, so a world god will have to do. But which world god will have Cosmic energy?"

He was thinking about his options when he received a message from one of his descendants. It was Salvini. She was asking for his help. Apparently she is being attacked by Vipers. He ignored her.

He knows that the Vipers didn't find her on their own. They had the help of Legion in discovering her location. He also knows that Legion is watching the attack on Salvini from afar in fear that he would show up. If not for him, they would have attacked her directly instead of using eager tools like the Vipers.

"They underestimate me too much. My plans are grand. Far too grand for them to see. Maybe when they become world gods they will understand the ultimate aim of making all of reality bow to your Will, not the aim of making life difficult for some Origin gods. They are special, but I am not so bored as to waste my time on them."

He ignored Salvini's pleas and focused on how to find Cosmic energy. It is a much better use of his time than worrying about some descendants. Especially a descendant that has lost any of its use since the realm of high heaven is no more.

Salvini has always been a tool to him. He agreed to let Legion kill her so that they would focus on her. Then he made Salvini see a vision of her death. That spurred her on and allowed him to use her to probe Legion from the light while he worked his way at them from the dark.

That vision was just an illusion he implanted in her mind. If even Legion didn't notice him planting something in their minds on time, there was no way a measly transcendent could have noticed. Her impending death and her perceived threat from Legion were all a result of his manipulation.

His plan worked. Legion didn't focus as much on Salvini as he wanted, but Salvini still came through in her struggle for survival. She managed to discover Legion-7's traces, which helped him discover the Phoenix ancestor through the Phoenixes that were after him.

That discovery granted him a lot of knowledge on Legion-7's special existence. It helped him create a realistic illusion that managed to fool Legion.

Now that that part of his plan is over and the high heaven realm is gone, he doesn't need Salvini anymore. Legion can have her. And whatever plan they have prepared for him when he shows up or sends anyone to help her won't work either. So letting her die is a smart decision, and he is all for making smart decisions.

In lieu of making smart decisions, he made something appear from his inner world. It was a white being that looked like a supreme beast. It doesn't have any eyes, nose, lips, or ears, and it can shapeshift just like supreme beasts.

But this is no ordinary supreme beast. It is a supreme beast that can change into a world beast, a battle sage monkey, a giant of order, a Warrog, a poison dragon, and an elf. It took after a certain someone and also thinks like that person.

The first sage said to the supreme beast, "Legion has shown up. Follow their traces and steal your identity back from them. Pay them back for what they did to you."

The Supreme Beast board in respect. "Thank you for your kindness o great one. I have been wallowing in pain ever since that demon possessed me and stole my identity. It is only by your grace that I can get this opportunity to recover my birthright. I hope to be able to repay you back for your generosity."

The first sage sent him away, "Yes, yes. Go now. I am busy."

The 10th clone of Legion, or the clone who believes himself to be the true Legion, went after Legion to reclaim its identity. It doesn't know that it is neither of those things and didn't exist until the first sage decided to work with Green Vine a while ago.
