GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1678: A Brave New World.



The whole realm flickered and turned gray around them. Then it became white and sometimes black, but it stabilized on white. At this point, the whole realm has become an empty white canvas. Then lines of various colors began to appear. These lines were like threads weaving the tapestry of manifestation.

The system was using all the data it had collected from every living and non-living thing in the realm and the void universe ever since the first one came to the void universe up until the time when Monarch High Heaven became realm lord to build a new world. This new world would be the core of the massive project that will have a great impact on the whole void universe.

The first one watched all of these happen with mild interest. This is something that couldn't be done without the agreement of Mother High Heaven. But now that she is no more, the realm of high heaven is no more, and he can do anything he wants with what's left.

This includes doing something as dangerous as simultaneously upgrading a world while rebuilding it. He wasn't concerned about the chances of success of the system, so he turned his attention to his existence again.

"Some more shackles have been released, and I can bear more backlash from the use of cosmic force. The Authority of the void universe has also made me stronger, but this is far from enough. I need more power."

His state of existence remained the same as he began to equip Authority, but the amount of power he could wield was rising rapidly. Authority did nothing to reduce the backlash he feels for the Cosmic force he uses, but his output of Cosmic force performs more work because of the augmentation of the void universe.

He said begrudgingly, "It seems brother has planned for everything. This Authority will go a long way in helping me."

His sister asked, "Are his plans peripheral now?"

"They still are. I don't need them. My power is enough. It is why I am here while he is not. If schemes were so great, he wouldn't need the power to execute them."

He believes that power is the most important thing to have, but he can accept that wisdom and plans are good to have, seeing as they have made his power more efficient. Most of all, he is impressed by the fact that all of these plans were made without their brother knowing anything about the void universe.

The only thing they knew was the mechanism of operation of other universes. So the plans were made on the fly as the system acquired more information on the void universe. But these plans have mostly turned out well.

It took some time, but his dream incarnations eventually found a realm tree. They had been living in the dead or dying realms of world gods before. It wasn't until the time of Monarch High that the dream incarnation found its way to the path of Supremacy.

The path of Supremacy is the main goal of the first one. That's why he came to the void universe to look for it and other things that might aid him in finding it. But he just woke up, only to find out that the system had prepared a lot of things to make his search easier.

The system had already planned to remove the Will of the realm ever since Monarch High Heaven came to the high heaven realm. It also encouraged Monarch High Heaven to learn how to create Authority by granting him quests.

This Authority of the void universe will be the foundation of his project and also help him resist the shackles of the void universe. With his power and his brother's ability to scheme combined, his goal in the void universe is all but certain to succeed. It made him acknowledge the system just a little bit.

The ancestor of high elves had also finished her changes. All of the high elves in the realm have been absorbed by her. This happened seemlessly and without resistance because the high elf race is a paragon race. They have a spiritual connection between them that all leads to her.

It is unlike other types of paragon races. The high elves did not gain anything from this spiritual connection. Their ancestor was the sole beneficiary of this connection, both in life and death. Some high elves noticed the spiritual connection, but they only thought that it was a harmless connection to the life trees.

That connection has come in handy now. Most of the high elves have died so that she can resurrect, if only temporarily. Only those outside of the realm are still alive. But at least she can move around the realm once again. She wasn't happy about it yet, though.

She said tentatively, "I have killed the Will of the realm for you, as I promised. You promised to let me go after."

The first one looked her over, contemplating what he should do with her. On the one hand, he wanted to eat her. He can always do with powerful food.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

On the other hand, he didn't want to break the oath Monarch High Heaven made with her. Breaking the oath will lead to a permanent decrease in strength.

That is not a good thing for him, considering that his sister is hanging around like a bird of prey. He can't show weakness, or she will make a move on him the way he made a move on her when he heard she was weak too.

That isn't even the worst thing that can happen. Breaking the oath might cause his mask to crack, which will expose him to the void universe. It would be like that time Legion exposed the Phoenix for what they truly are when they cracked the godhood of one of them. The void universe had descended with a vengeance. He doesn't want that either, so he made his decision.
