Jealousy is one factor of greed. And greed is a chaos inducing factor that often brings tragedies.
I thought I knew what jealousy was, after all I was always jealous that my older sibling Testament of Stories had the word "stories" in their modifier.
Perhaps I did know what jealousy was. But what I didn't know, was how far it would go.

After the Testament of Stories updated the system for the scenario participants, I and the humans found out that we could upgrade our stats such as strength using coins.
I, being a celestial did not really need it, I was already a hundred times stronger than a human could ever be. And upgrading my stats with just measly 20 coins would not make a difference.
It was different for the humans, it was beneficial for them. Espescially for Kieve who received 500 coins for being the representative.
He could jump higher and run a little bit faster, his strength seemed to have also improved a little bit.
I smiled and wondered if these humans could grow even stronger and be like me, a star in the endless sky. Perhaps by then, I wouldn't feel so lonely anymore.

I noticed that there were some humans that were showing jealousy to Kieve. From above, I could hear them talk about how they could've been a better representative.
At first I was confused, is it not a good thing that their representative is stronger now?
I really was naive. I didn't know that individuals will crave for power that they do not have.
Perhaps it was not my fault that I didn't understand their jealousy. After all, I was born stronger and better than any of them.
However, since I was so strong and better, how come I couldn't help any of them during the first tragedy?
