GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 616 Eternal Hatred.

?

His first move starts where the 6th step of weapon mastery ends and as such needs a lot more power than what he had. He had to supplement it with the power of the world. World power was forcefully infused into his body without having a body of law to contain it. It caused his body to crack. He went behind what he should be able to do. It is remarkable but it could also have led to his death.

His other reason for not using it is the lack of synchronization between his body, mind, and eyes. He needs the three of them to work in tandem to use the WORLD BREAKER but this world has placed a limit on his body and soul at 10%. 90% of his body and mind have been shackled preventing him from wielding his skill set properly. 

If you have a weapon that can harm you even when it is in perfect condition, you better hope it is in perfect condition because the damage it will do to you when it is not working well can be fatal to you. The risk of death is the major reason why he didn't want to use it. But he used it anyway and he survived the ordeal. Because unlike everyone else, he is not alone.

"Anyway. Progress is always difficult to achieve. I have achieved this. It is time to move." He said as he looked at the peak of the mountain.

He can see his next target at the top of the mountain. What he saw there made him narrow his eyes.

"Viper race? This is certainly unexpected and also expected. It is just like the sage to create an enemy that we are weak to. I wonder what its abilities are." He said in anticipation and he began ascending the mountain.

What he saw reminded him of the mortal enemies of battle sage monkeys. Images of them exist but their entire race was killed until extinction in the Virut plane. Their warriors were slain so were their young and old. Even their eggs were broken wherever they found them. It helped that the Vipers were communal and liked to lay eggs in the same location. The Sages mobilized the entire race to wipe out each community of Vipers and their future generations too.

There are rumors of why the order for killing the race of Vipers into extinction was made. It is one thing to defeat a race and subjugate or enslave them. It is another thing to hunt them to extinction. There had to be a reason why the sages decided that they couldn't allow the vipers to live. That reason also had to be very compelling for them to actually go through with killing them all to extinction without stopping at all.

Anyone can hate a race for whatever reason and decide to wipe them out but that doesn't change the amount of effort, resources, and time it will take to actually go through with it. It is not strange that most will lose motivation and hatred will cool over time. It happens most of the time that those that start something with dedication will give up as time passes and even forget the reason for their hatred. 

It is not the case for the battle sage monkeys. They never gave up. They forgot why they hated the Vipers but they continued to hunt them until they killed every last one of them. The hatred persisted through time and generation after generation of battle sage monkeys worked to wipe out any trace of the Vipers until the Vipers became history. It is only something that can happen due to a deep eternal hatred of the Vipers.

The feat of hunting a race into extinction is commendable. Battle sage monkeys have forgotten what is so dangerous about the Vipers. It could be that it was intentionally done so that Vipers and everything related to them will be forgotten. Either way, there are a lot of rumors about Vipers and why they had to be completely eliminated. 

The rumors generally agree that it is because of the divine ability of the vipers but there are different opinions of what that divine ability is. Information about them cannot be found in history books. So no one knows exactly what makes the Vipers fearsome. Soverick is looking forward to seeing that divine ability in action.

He stopped his ascension and asked himself, "What's this?"

He was using his eyes to scan the Viper at a deeper level to figure out its properties and any weaknesses. But he was shocked to discover that he can't recognize anything or understand what he is seeing at all. It is like he is reading a book written in a completely different type of language.

His eyes narrowed. "This is not supposed to be here. Is there another world god involved in the competition?"

Further inspection of the viper made him realize the strangeness of his next opponent. His opponent is not made with the same law of order as the sage. It is not the law of order of the universe either. It is a new previously unknown law of order. He decided it belongs to another world god because this law of order doesn't look like the Sage's at all.

His suspicion turned into excitement. "Now I am looking forward to this fight. I must have this new law of order. Is it safe though?"

The sight of new knowledge is tempting and very appealing to him. It is why he decided to participate in this competition in the first place. He doesn't know what use this new law of order might have but knowledge is power so he wants to get it. But he is afraid. The sage might have been relaxed about him spying on his law of order but this is a different world god. Things might not end well if he tampers with this new law of order.
