Chapter 1080 How To Work With Ragnarok.

Then she explained to the first white Ghoul, "As for you, the first agenda on the list is to expand the Ghouls. And we will use the wood elves for that. It is killing two birds with one stone."

The first white ghoul complained with a growl that only she could understand. It said, "What about that pesky Warrog?"

She laughed. "Leave him be. He won't listen to reason and he certainly won't obey me. He is also helping us keep the Vampires busy while we accumulate our forces. What he is doing is a good thing."

"Ok." It said with the same growling and accepted her decision on it.

It wants to remove Ragnarok for many reasons but the child of the plane said no. So it won't bother with Ragnarok anymore.

Rinoz shook her head and thought to herself. "That's the only way to ask him to do something. It is by asking him not to do it. I would have been surprised had he listened to me."

She didn't really want Ragnarok to stop hunting Primogenitors. The reasons why he should stop are real and true. But what he is doing is good for her. She has placed all her attention on the wood elves for now. She needs someone to keep pressuring the Vampires.

Ragnarok might have refused had she asked him nicely to keep attacking the Vampires or he might have decided to take advantage of the situation to create more chaos that wouldn't benefit her in any way.

So she didn't make that mistake. She has learned from all her experiences of asking Ragnarok to do anything. He will always refuse. She used that knowledge to her advantage now. She asked him to do the opposite of what she wanted. Ragnarok is hunting the Vampires with increased fervor because he thinks the ghouls are also after the Vampires.

"He is so predictable. He doesn't like to share his prey." She laughed one last time.

Then she looked around her to see the millions of ghouls surrounding her. They are weak individually but even so, each one can handle a Sovereign. A million of them can destroy any opposition.

This is already a large amount of power in her grasp, but she is increasing it further. It will surely weaken the boost she gets from the plane but it is better this way. She will be able to get rid of the wood elves in one fell swoop.

Power is power. If there is a lot of it to be gained from the undead, then the undead are to be prioritized. Killing her mentor and turning him into a Ghoul must also be done if it will give her an advantage in her fight for the plane.

Her eyes almost teared up when she remembered the look her mentor gave her before he died. It was full of pain and accusation but it is still better than the look that the white ghoul he became gave to her. The white Ghoul doesn't remember her anymore. It just looked at her with a blank stare. She too can't recognize anything of her mentor's within those black eyes.

"I am sure Ragnarok would be okay with this if he was the one to sacrifice his family and mentor. He is selfish and stubborn. He can also handle pressure well." She thought to herself.

She admires Ragnarok. She didn't use to. Her admiration for him began when she realized how na?ve she had been. And when she realized what it took to be stubborn and determined against the opposition of the whole plane.

Ragnarok could kill his entire park and paragons of his race for power. She thought she was tougher than him or at least as tough as him because she could sacrifice Warrogs to Vampires to create misdirection. However, sacrificing those Warrogs cannot compare to sacrificing her mentor. But she did it. It is something that she probably wouldn't be able to do before her recent change in character.

She has gone through a lot since she escaped from the underground with the wood elves when Ragnarok fought the three origin gods. The wood elves tried to capture her and bind her. They would have succeeded had the white Ghoul not come to save her.

If she was her previous petty self, she would have decided to wipe out the wood elves for what they did to her. The addition of the ghouls to her arsenal and her hatred for what was done to her didn't make her decide to wipe out the wood elves. The betrayal of the fountain of life led her to make that decision. 

It all started when the fountain of life asked the will of the plane to dissuade Ragnarok from freeing the ghouls. The Will of the plane did the opposite. It sent her to encourage Ragnarok instead.

One might wonder why the Fountain of life chose to have the ghouls sealed instead of letting them lose on the Vampires. That reason is why the Fountain of life is unhappy with the ghouls killing everything in the plane while the Will of the plane is happy to work with the ghouls.

The Fountain of life had briefly worked together to create Rinoz. That cooperation ended when the Will of the plane chose to encourage Ragnarok to release the ghouls. But that's not the major reason that the fountain of life turned against the will of the plane.

It is not as if the presence of the ghouls in the plane doesn't have any negative side effects on the plane or that the will of the plane is ignorant of those side effects. The deaths caused by the Ghouls weaken her as the child of the plane. The boost from her title has fallen precipitously because of them.

So it is not exactly pleasant for her to have ghouls in the plane. Still, the will of the plane wants more of ghouls. It is because ghouls are the most powerful weapons that the Will of the Plane can use to destroy all the enemies of the plane.
