The child of the plane looked at everyone's reaction to his rant. He didn't get anything because they all had calm introspective expressions but he knows that not many agree with him. He knows why and he understands why they wouldn't agree with him. Their reluctance is because it is a lesson that he has learned.
They haven't learned that lesson because they haven't experienced what he experienced or seen what he saw. They didn't feel the rapid switches and near-perfect control of the champion of the furries. They haven't looked directly into those four eyes of the champion and felt him unravel their existence. They have no reason to fear that champion and wish to eliminate it.
ραΠdαsΝοvεl ƈοm Only he understands why he has decided not to underestimate the furries anymore. They don't because they haven't seen the relevance that he imbibed. He won't bother with them because they don't need to learn that lesson.
There are two ways to learn. It is either through personal experience or through witnessing the experience of others. Learning from personal experience is very painful. Anything painful to someone of his level is something that can very well kill him if there is enough of it. So he hopes to avoid pain as much as possible. Avoiding pain means killing that champion now while it is still a king of law.
But that's his own personal agenda. He isn't going to force others to learn that lesson or do anything to prevent his fear from coming to pass. That's why he is not going to crack down on the furries in his plane. He won't order the total extinction of the furries. As the child of the plane, he gets power from every being born on the plane. That means each furry is as valuable as a Viper to him. There is no qualitative difference between them when it comes to the boost that they give him.
The era of conquest is coming. He will need every strength he can get to protect the plane if he is still the child of the plane when it comes. He can't stab himself in the guts by weakening the plane. So he won't eliminate the furries. But something has to be done about the embarrassing performance of the Vipers during the competition. A lesson must be learned from that experience. He will not have it any other way.
So he turned his gaze to the 9 paragons huddling beside the pillar. His gaze turned cold and steely.
He spoke with a cold voice of reproach. "You have shamed us. You have shamed the plane and you have shamed Vipers. Most importantly, you have shamed me. In summary, your performance was shameful. I am very disappointed, to say the least."
The paragons cowered beneath his gaze. They are regretting their participation in the competition. They thought that it was an honor to win the planar preliminaries to participate in the competition but now they know that it might be the event that caused their death.
The child of the plane continued, "You will be punished for your failure. But first, I want to see if you have learned anything from this experience. You all know what happened, tell me what you would have done differently to win."
The 9 paragons began talking with enthusiasm. After all, their very lives depend on it. They offered alternative plans of action to win the competition. One of the problems that caused their defeat is that they fought against the battle sage monkeys without much knowledge and information about their enemies. They believe that they now have a better chance of success since they are better informed. So they gave many plans that will ensure victory with the information that they have. The major cause for victory was the suggestion that the immortal power gave.
"We shouldn't have focused our strength in one place. That's what made us lose. We should have remained mobile and prioritized the other furries instead of the flag while I keep their champion at bay. Their champion is the one that requires the use of most of our connections. I will be able to match him with my versatility and 2 million connections."
The child of the plane nodded in agreement as he listened to their suggestions. He agrees with the immortal power. The support of 2 million connections from the immortal link and his ability to boost his defense, speed, strength, and others will be more than enough to match Soverick or at least hold him back. Soverick won't be able to get to the rest once they scatter and none of the other furries will be able to take on the paragons.
The immortal power won't die easily now that he knows to be careful around Soverick and any death that doesn't damage his existence will not be able to incapacitate him. He will be able to resurrect and keep fighting indefinitely. Meanwhile, the rest of the furries will be killed to the last. Only then will the Paragons go for the flag if they have to.
The child of the plane raised one of his hands to silence them.
Then he said, "You have made good suggestions. It seems you have all learned something and your shameful defeat was not a waste. I will not take your life because of that. Your punishment will be the loss of all your connections."
The 9 paragons sighed in relief that their life will be spared then they wilted under the blow of the punishment. To lose all their connections is to become no different from normal vipers. It is a fall from grace that cannot be recovered from in this time and age. Competition for connections is very serious and cutthroat in their plane. They will be too weak to be competitive in the competition for connections. They are essentially being crippled.
"Any objections?" The child of the plane asked them in a calm soothing voice.
