Chapter 1715: All For Power.
Their dilemma is incredibly similar to what Noctus and Noctin are going through. But they don't have access to each other's minds, so they don't know what each other is thinking or doing. That's why she has to stick to the god of power and monitor him. That way she will be able to steal the fruit of his labor when he is done or destroy it so that he can't have it.
The fight between the Gemini twins was witnessed by a lot of people. Even world gods noticed it. That's because the god of power passed through this location on his rampage through realm trees.
These world gods had been monitoring his actions, so they noticed the fight between the twins. Almost every world god sided with Noctus.
To world gods, a Supreme Law is of uttermost importance. To the schemers, building a Supreme Law is like writing the amount you want in an open check. To the fighters and brawlers, they liken building a Supreme Law to sitting at an all you can eat buffet.
The smart decision is to write the largest amount you can possibly conceive into the check. For the brawlers, the efficient decision is to eat all they can eat in the shortest time possible. So regardless of the point of view, every world god thinks the power of the Supreme Law should be prioritized.
To world gods, a Supreme Law is the foundation of everything and anything. It represents their backbone and their blood. They also would like a powerful Supreme Law, but they were not opportuned to build something so powerful when they were Origin gods. They didn't have a twin that they could sacrifice to elevate their future potential.
A Supreme Law is the foundation of their world, so their world can be destroyed and rebuilt while their Supreme Law remains with them even in death. Their world also cannot become stronger than the capacity of their Supreme Laws. The best they can do to increase that capacity right now is use Cosmic energy.
It is too late to add another aspect to it. They are what they are, and the whole of reality will either become them or they will die trying. They have lost the opportunity to create a better Supreme Law, so some of them were jealous of the twins while others thought of them as being naïve.
None of them made a move, though. They were all focused on trying to figure out how High Heaven was suppresing so many realm trees. The best they have figured out is that it is related to the Authority of the void universe in one way or another. They don't know for sure because they can't find proof other than that the resistance from the realm trees is less than it ought to be.
They wanted to be certain, so they focused on High Heaven's actions. It was then that they saw him do something other than bully realm trees.
The first one passed and saw the fight. He snorted and went on his way. But then he returned and pinched both of them to death. He actually slapped them to oblivion. They were too small for his fingers to pinch, so it looked like the tip of his fingers slapped them.
Then he said to those in the two armies who hadn't been crushed to death, "This fight is over. It is a test for the fittest now. The strongest one will survive and will win."
Then he left them.
He thinks little of Origin gods. He doesn't even think highly of world gods, so he ignored their squabble at first. But then their fight reminded him of his struggle with his siblings. So he returned to set things straight.
He is more similar to Noctin in nature. He is not a schemer, and he doesn't like schemes. He is more of a fighter, and he is very good at it. Despite the similarities between them, he didn't side with Noctin because he believes that the fighter is making a stupid decision. Mentally, he is more similar to Noctus because he will always prioritize strength above everything else. He would rather die than not jump at an opportunity to be stronger. That is why he is here.Nôv(el)B\\jnn
The existence of the Supreme sitting above everyone else had blocked everyone's path. No one could grow stronger beneath the Supreme when he was alive. Now the Lord of Madness is dead, so they can finally raise their heads and grow. It is a precious opportunity that one wouldn't appreciate until they have lost it.
He made up his mind to take full advantage of this opportunity. He didn't do what everyone else was doing. He came to this dangerous prison where he could die just so he could find the path to Supremacy.
If he fails, he could die. But if he succeeds, he will be farther along the path of Supremacy than the others. If he becomes the next Supreme, then the schemes and abilities of others will become meaningless. He will gain ultimate freedom. And for that, he is willing to do anything. His conviction makes him belittle those who are not willing to do everything for power. But he also understands that only the strongest deserve to survive. That's why he didn't pick one twin above the other. He killed the two of them. Now the first one to resurrect will get to decide their fate.
The best part of his decision is that he is willing to bet that whoever resurrects first will decide to sacrifice the other for power. He wants to see if Noctin is dedicated to freedom over power that much.
His plan brought a smile to his lips. His good for nothing sister noticed it and smirked at him. He replied with a snort and resumed suppressing realm trees every 10 minutes.
-It Is Not Over Yet.
Survival is a struggle. Only the fittest survive. Greatness is for the few that are head and shoulders above others, either in strength or luck.
