V3C2: A new law.

(I forgot to mention it, but they obviously take off the armors of the demons. Cleppe's soldier didn't change armor, but the other did, all have taken the heavy armor - the Knights' one being too heavy for them to wear .)

'[I need to verify it.]' the system thought, connecting to its database. Scanning rapidly the information, it soon arrived at a conclusion: what just happened wasn't an isolated case. As it thought so, it quickly sent a report message to its main body.

…

Meeting the Red Star, the system's main body spoke.

''Hey !''

''Hey! You've been busy these days! So, did you succeed? Did any of them found their path yet?''

''Well… it was as expected: Some did but they are a minority it isn't very stable. But I didn't come here for this. Something strange is happening in the univerium and I was wondering if you knew something.''

''What exactly are you talking about?''

''Some of my contractors died… an irregular number of them.''

''You've got some bad luck? Well, it isn't as if it was a problem.''

''The thing is, I was calculating the issue of their fight, and most of them shouldn't have died yet. On the other hand, some who should have died didn't.''

''Didn't you miscalculated? If I'm not wrong, only a part of you was calculating.''

''I'm sure of it. These parts were strong enough to calculate no matter what within their domain, and with their disposition, nothing in the univerium can escape me.''

''I haven't done anything unusual if you ask me. And I don't think any of the others would have too.''

''Yeah… that's why it's strange. While their plot armor should have protected them, something had hindered them. I've found a sort of thread-like green energy over the body of those whose ending should have been different ''

''You mean…''

''Yeah, we may face a newly created law.''

''oh, ok.''

''what's with this answer? The creation of a new law is something important!''

''You're worrying for nothing. At worst, some of them would just die. This isn't that much of a problem.''

''… You've changed.''

''And you'd better just rest and enjoy. Worst come to worst, you wouldn't need much energy to create the situation you want.''

''So.. this isn't important anymore for you? What had changed?''

''I've simply lost interest in it. It's been a long time already and all people change with experiences as is the Globalium. Don't live another one's life and just enjoy already. ''

''… It was a meaningless talk.'' the system turned and prepared to leave.

''Wait.''

''?''

''You want to see what had change… I'll show you. I didn't give it up, but this just isn't the moment to do it.''

''So ?'' Turning around to see it, the system asked.

''You only need to deactivate that uncontrollable capacity of you.'' As it turned it off, the system was shocked.

''T-This…'' A feeling of hatred began to grow inside it. This wasn't his first time feeling it but he knew this one wasn't from itself!

Becoming suddenly afraid of the thought that began to appear in its mind, it began to concentrate on the energies. Thankfully, the red star had deactivated his protective barrier allowing it to see it clearly.

All around the red star was negative karma of the purest state. All of them serve as a foundation to the chains that were tying him.

This was the first time he saw that much karma. It was as if his existence wasn't allowed. Still, he resisted it nonetheless.

'How strong can one be to resist such pressure ?' The karma was so strong that it even affected it, something that could surely be ranked within the 100 most powerful God that has ever existed.

''Sadly, in this world, we become what other thought of us. The contrary only happens when you're strong enough to stop it. But with this speed, you'll most likely be corrupted by them. So why bother helping them? It's their fault in the first place.''

While the Red Star stopped suppress his protective barrier, the system reactivated its uncontrollable capacities.

''Don't waste your life, and join me.'' The Red Star proposed.

''… There are still things I have to do before living for myself.''

''These Gods didn't think of you as a real life, you know? Then, they left this world and make it rot!''

''As much as I would like to take your proposition, I can't now.''

The following day, the group prepared to pass the third and last test
