Chapter 790 End Of Posturing.Chapter 790 End Of Posturing.

The will of the plane answered his call and the title was forcefully separated from Salvini and attached to him. Multitudes of golden lines converged onto him from every direction to form a golden lightning bolt around him. The bolt is even visible in the mind space. It is visible and indisputable proof of his identity.

"I hope you are happy now." He said to the sage. 

"No. No, I am not." The sage replied calmly. "I am not happy at all."

Soverick sighed. "Of course, you are not happy. Who could have seen that coming?"

He has proven that he is the child of the plane but the sage is not happy. He expected it to be like this. The sage can't be happy now that he has proven beyond all reasonable doubt that he is a threat to the lineage of the sage. The only way for the first sage to be happy is if he dies and stays dead. If he didn't have a way out of this, then there will be no negotiation between them anymore.

"Now leave. I'll call you again. And you better not ask me to do this again."

He pushed the sage out of his mind space before he could say anything. Then the tentacle attached to him pulled him down to the depth of the abyss.

"Fuck you." He cursed as his soul was fragmented again.

He could have been removed safely but his soul needed to be destroyed so that the connections of the child of the plane will go back to Salvini. He had to die once he proved himself as the child of the plane. It was what he was dreading and it was as painful as he expected it to be. He felt his consciousness collapse painfully before he blacked out and ceased to exist.

The process of his resurrection started again after his death. His soul sphere found its way back to the root of Soverick within Legion-7. Then another connection was formed to another shell that has been prepared within the Virut plane. He could be resurrected in any other shell within the other planes that Legion-7 has infiltrated but Legion doesn't want to give the sage too much information about what they are capable of.

The first sage probably suspects Legion to be a multi-racial entity that has infiltrated the Virut plane and many other planes. There is no need to give him proof of that. If Legion can help it, then it will remain an entity that might be multi-racial and has only infiltrated the Virut plane to the first sage.

A new Soverick was then uploaded from the soul engram of the Original Soverick that Legion-7 is in possession of directly into the new husk. The husk was morphed by the ability of Legion-7 to form another clone of Soverick. The soul of the husk has been subjugated a long time ago so there was no resistance and they are just a mana entity so they have a body imprint already. Their body imprint is then overridden and reshaped into those of Soverick's. And that's how a new Soverick was created a few hours later.

"So I'm v3. V2 got killed because of the death of v1. I hope that doesn't happen to me." Soverick said after waking up.

No one wants to die and this version doesn't want to die either. They will die if Legion needs them to just like the original Soverick would but the original Soverick doesn't want to die either. Each clone of Legion can die for Legion but death is very painful and unpleasant. It becomes increasingly unpleasant when you have the memories of two previous deaths.

Each version believes itself to be the real Soverick. They are right in a way. They have something that the original Soverick had that makes him Soverick. But that thing can be saved and transported from one Soverick to another by Legion-7. It can also only be possessed by one Soverick at a time so trying to create numerous Soverick's won't work. Legion-7 has tried it before so they know that it will end badly. Very bad things will occur.

This mechanism of resurrection is a copy of how origin gods remain immortal. But it is only a copy. He is not immortal. He loses a part of himself each time he dies and resurrects like this. It makes him incomplete despite Legion-7's best efforts to keep him whole. The missing parts of his existence cause him to feel constant pain. It is not as bad as the immortal power's, but the mild headache of V2 has increased to a bigger headache in him. It is something that will only get worse the more he dies until his existence collapses.

"Nothing beats being an Origin god." He murmured as he rubbed his throbbing forehead.

"Let's get this over with." He said before calling the sage again.

The sage responded quickly but he didn't try to force a meeting this time. Soverick allowed himself to be invited into the mind space of the sage. He has already proven himself capable of resisting so there's no need to go through posturing again.

Now the first sage knows that he could have avoided the first meeting between them when his mind was pulled into the mana within the sheets of paper. And the first sage also knows that he was aware of the danger and had a plan for it when he decided to attend the competition. He is not some ignorant child that will play with fire without knowing or preparing for the possibility of being burned.

"I am more than Soverick Ghastorix. I am Legion and I am never alone." He said to encourage himself as he went to face off against a world god.

He is going into the first sage's mind space to continue their meeting where he will demand for compensation for all the physical and mental injuries he has suffered because of the sage. He needs all the encouragement he can get.
