Soverick considered the reward. He is honestly swayed. A request from a world god is very powerful. The opportunity to make more requests is a very tempting offer.
"Make it three requests, and you've got yourself a deal," Soverick demanded more.
The sage refused to budge. "It is just two and no more."
"Come on. The requests aren't even compulsory. It is not like you have to do whatever I ask. You get to decide if you want to do it. So make it three requests."
"It is already a fortune to ask a world god for something. You can use it to ask for wealth or Authority in the racial council. It is up to you. You don't get more than two wishes from me."
He plans to have Soverick killed during or after the competition, so it might not matter how many requests he gives him since he wouldn't be able to use it, but the sage won't do that. Things might not work out, and he doesn't want to test fate. He would rather prepare for both eventualities and not shoot himself in the foot. This is why he doesn't lose. He always prepared for his own failure.
"Alright. Two requests. Can I request that you protect me from the other world god?" Soverick asked.
"You don't need to do that. It will be a waste of your request. I already promised you that the racial council would do everything that it could to protect you. What could be better than that?"
The sage discouraged Soverick from making the request. If Soverick makes the request, then the sage will be forced to tell him that his days are already numbered. Soverick is already doomed the moment that he took the raw law of order of the serpentine world god into himself in the first challenge. He was already informed that the law of order of a world god is part of their existence, but he didn't realize the full implications.
A world god is immortal as long as their law of order exists. That means that they can resurrect from anything that they create. Origin gods need their original essence and soul fragments to resurrect, but all a world god needs is a piece of paper that they made.
It will take a lot of time, and they need a lot of energy to rebuild their world, but it is possible. Soverick didn't swallow a piece of paper that a world god made. He did more than that, so he has it coming for him. He will surely die.
There's nothing the sage can do to protect him apart from Soverick giving up the law of order. If Soverick makes that request, then the sage has to tell him about it. As long as Soverick remains ignorant and the competition is still going on, then the sage can keep what he knows to himself.
Soverick nodded. "I'll keep my requests to myself for now. I should wait to win until I make requests. How do I reach you when I am ready?"
"You can draw my attention by pinging my law of order. I will be able to hear it from anywhere in the law matrix of the void universe." The sage replied.
"Okay. I'll call you when I have made up my mind. Wish me luck for the last challenge."
ƥandasnovel.com "Good luck." The sage said and disappeared.
Soverick turned his attention to the law of order in the core. It is like the gene code of the first sage. The things that he can do and he is doing with it have never been done before. To witness such a boon so clearly is a one-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Even an immortal will cherish it. Origin gods will kill for this opportunity to see how the laws of the universe can be fused into one supreme law. This Supreme law is strong enough to become independent of the law matrix and carve out a section of it for itself. This law is the foundation of a world. It is also a solution to a lot of problems.
One of the problems that it will fix is the fusion of Soverick's laws. Unlike the bloodline of the first sage, which is based on only the law of fate, his own divine ability is based on Space, Time, Causality, and the basic laws of the world. These four basic groups enabled his eyes to be much more versatile than that of the first sage, as can be seen from his skill set. It also means that becoming a titan of law will be very difficult for him.
The immense task of fusing his laws is an undertaking that can get him killed. The first sage knows his eyes and some of what they can do. He also knows how difficult it will be to fuse it. That's why he chose his law of order to bait him. The two of them are compatible since they are of the same race with ocular powers.
The little piece of the law of the order he got from the first meeting helped him to finish his skillset before the competition. If he gets enough of it, then it might help him to fuse all his laws into one.
As for that of the serpentine world god, Legion-7 is guzzling it as fast as he can. Legion-7 and the law of order of the serpentine world god are very compatible. Legion-7 is also an expert on devouring and assimilating laws, so he is making faster progress than Soverick.
The two of them are not the only ones that will benefit from the laws of order. Every Legion will benefit from it. They all know whatever one of them knows. The knowledge that he and Legion-7 acquire will help every one of them to become titans of law safely and eventually become Sovereigns.
So he should be satisfied with what he already has. But he is greedy for more.
