GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 988 The Job Offer.

There is no light here in the north but getting caught up in a fight with the wood elves during the day is a bad idea. So they all ran. As for Malekit, he is sullen about the entire thing. But there's nothing he can do about it. He wants power like every person and he is ready to do anything to get it. Unfortunately for him, he is a vampire. He is limited on how to acquire power and he is limited on how strong he can ever be.

He will never match an ancestral vampire in power in the same rank and neither will he reach the highest height that ancestral vampires can reach. The only way to solve that is to get his own heart of Carnage. It is too bad that he just lost the only chance to get it.

He couldn't fight and kill Xigger in a challenge for his heart and Xigger is the youngest ancestral vampire. The other primogenitors are much older and much stronger. Malekit is tough for a vampire and he is older than Xigger but he still couldn't match Xigger. His situation is all but hopeless. Thankfully, there is a silver lining in all of his misfortune.

"On the bright side, Xigger is dead and he won't come after me for revenge." He said to himself.

That is truly something to be thankful for. But then he remembered that Xigger's son is the new Primogenitor of devouring and he couldn't help but shiver again.

Back to Ragnarok.

He ran away after the changes in his body finished. He regained control of his body once it became stabilized by the infinite supply of the power of blood. He is still in the process of breaking through to transcendence but he is no longer in danger of dying currently.

He is currently safe from death but he has acquired a special type of problem. This problem is not related to his lack of eyes. His body has become a prison for his soul. He already tried and failed to commit suicide in every way possible. Legion-1's domain couldn't be summoned because the pressure from his body was too much.

"I might have bitten more than I could chew." He said in regret.

Ragnarok had been observing the changes going on in his body. He did it as he continued to resist the influence of the power of blood on his soul so he can say for certain that he is Helios except that the supreme law seems to have worn the battle over his body and half his existence.

The major source of the problem is the heart of Carnage. It is producing pressure on his soul through the nearly infinite supply of the power of blood. The only good news is that his soul is still safe and sound. At least for now.

The power of blood increased drastically when the heart of Carnage was inserted into his body but there was no increase in the pressure he felt on his soul.

The mark of Carnage is forceful. It is either to be accepted or rejected and die. But the heart of Carnage is different. There is a very important thing that must happen before it has any sway on his soul.

The demon god came to ask for that very thing. A voice appeared within Ragnarok's head.

"What an admirable young man. I am very impressed with you." The voice said to him.

"What an honor to have the demon god of Carnage come to visit me." He drawled.

"You know of me?" The demon god asked in surprise.

He replied, "Yeah, I do. I also know what's going to happen next."

"Hmm. Let's put business aside for a while. Let's talk about more pleasant things like how it is an honor to you for me to be here to talk to you."

Ragnarok snorted. "You should just get to the chase and say what you want."

"Mortals and their lack of patience." The voice grumbled in his mind. Then it said what it was aiming for. "You are a wonderful creature. Do you know that? I hope you know that. You need to know your worth so you will know how much of a loss it would be if you died or lost your free will. I hate to make you a puppet."

"Is that a threat?" Ragnarok asked as he ran across the ice.

"You are capable of great feats of Carnage. I have seen your works of Carnage and I must say that they are beautiful. You have a powerful divine ability and a powerful soul. I think we can do great things together. Why don't you accept this power that I am offering you?"

"I thought as much. You're a demon god but you're still a demon. At the end of the day, all you want from me is my soul. Why don't you take it yourself? You already have my body." He asked defiantly.

He is actually not as carefree as he seems. He is very afraid because he is currently talking to a demon god. Even worse is that he is actually in contact with the energy of a demon god and it has overwritten half of his existence.

He can prevent himself from fusing with the energy but that won't stop the demon god if it wants to kill him. He is not the only one in danger currently. He suspects that the demon god can reach all the clones of Legion through him.

The bond between his body and his heart of Carnage seems unbreakable. The heart of Carnage will follow his soul anywhere. It won't be a problem if he dies and resurrects in one of the fledglings in his lineage. But it will be a calamity for Legion If he goes to Legion-1 in death.

All of Legion is in trouble all because of that single bite from Xigger and his reluctance to accept a mediocre existence. His curiosity earned him knowledge but at a cost that he is not willing to pay.
