Chapter 639 Legacy
The bloodline Primarchs could not help but feel a sense of defeat as the Neo-Demon's monstrous willpower assaulted them. Issac and Salomon had the strongest sense of justice among the Primarchs, but even they had to reach a certain level of compromise with the universe's dark side.
However, Zatiel was not willing to do that. No matter the background or status, he would hunt down all those he considered had fallen into depravity.
"What is your definition of evil?" Salomon was the one that made that question, but it was something that affected everybody. Evil is not something that can be so easily defined, especially in a universe where the idea of Might is Right had ingrained deep into almost all forms of civilization.
Who among the Primarchs had not to kill billions of lives in their path to power? It was an unshakable truth that to rise into a higher stage, you had to do it over the bones of your enemies.
Zatiel had no problem answering that question, as it was something all Neo-Demon children would learn in their school and from their elders. He waved his hand, sending a card for each Primarch.
"There are the rules and codes you must follow and the penalties one would pay for breaking them. I also added the crimes committed by that Titan Clan in Zenith." and the others made sure to analyze the information thoroughly. Zatiel may not be powerful enough to threaten their lives at this moment, but he had the power to butcher the geniuses from their worlds.
The information was extremely well redacted, leaving not a single loophole, and yet very easy to understand and impart. That already made Issac and Salomon's reservation over Zatiel actively hunting evil diminish greatly.
The rules and penalties were not the same for all. They took into consideration the difference among those in higher Ranks.
First were the most protected group, mortals and children. Killing one of them was enough to be granted a death sentence. No matter who you were or who protected you, you will die. The only variant was time.
Next came adults who had already started their path to power and were still at the Physical Realm. They still enjoyed an outstanding level of protection, but Zatiel did not pay too much attention to individual battles in which one side perished and another triumphed. Anyone who embarked on cultivation must accept the risk that came with it.
As long as the killing only affected those among Rank 1 and Rank 3 and their battles did not involve innocent, the chances of being marked for death were few.
After that, the rules and codes detailed protection at the Soul Realm. The protection they enjoyed was very low. Almost every one of them was someone who had lived for hundreds of years and killed many people. Unless someone started butchering them, Zatiel would not act.
As for penalties toward Soul Realm existences, there were very low for single killing as long those did not involve people at the Physical Realm.
Finally came the rules regarding those at Law Realm. The protection they enjoyed was null, and as long as their actions did not harm people at the Physical or Soul Realm, Zatiel did not care.
After learning all the codes and rules, the Primarchs read the information about the Titan Clan's crimes. Immediately, all of them displayed expressions full of disgust, and they turned toward the Titan Primarch with the same reprimanding eyes that Zatiel showed before. ????????????
The experiment that Titan Clan performed in Zenith did not require strong individuals, but young ones, the younger, the better. From that, one could imagine the main test subjects they used.
After having enough time to analyze everything, Issac and Salomon looked at each other and nodded before looking at the members of their alliances.
Issac focused on Hyperion and the Dragon Primarch, while Salomon did it on the Sacred Beast Primarch and Spirit Primarch. The intent behind their eyes was clear. People that broke Zatiel's codes and rules would only help the Prima Universe by dying.
"Oh, right. I am curious. What is the name of your race?"
Zatiel turned toward the Magus Primarch when he heard that question and smiled.
"My race is the Neo-Demon Race!" The Neo-Demon Ancestor's voice was full of pride as he spoke those words.
The Primarchs were a little surprised when they heard the name. The term Demon would usually be associated with evil, but it was clear how righteous the Neo-Demon were supposed to be. It could also be related to their use of Abyss Aura or imply something more important, but none of them commented on it.
However, Issac could not help but make an odd expression as he made another question.
"Is this realm called Neo-Demon Realm and the heavenly body beneath us White Sun?"
Zatiel found the question strange, but he nodded. That made Issac's expression ever odder.
"You really suck at names."
When the Primarchs heard that, they almost began to laugh. They had been extremely tense all this time, so Issac's joke took them by surprise and helped them relax.
Zatiel was not exactly happy with that joke, but he had to admit that when it came to putting names, he did suck at it. He let everybody have a moment to relax before waving his hand.
Once again, everything inside the Virtual Dream Universe crumbled into an ocean of chaotic forces.
It did not remain like that for long. Under Zatiel's guidance, the chaotic forces transformed into a majestic white pyramid.
The Primarchs focused on the pyramid, and a stream of information reached their minds. It had ten levels, and the space inside it could compare with Abyss or Baator.
"The name of this dimension is Virtual Dream Universe, from which I am the nucleus. I will make adjustments to transfer the nucleus into my realm, making this pyramid a fixed point. Its name is Legacy and will become a heaven for geniuses of the Prima Universe. There is still time for the current generation to rise to a level where they will make a difference in the final battle."
