Soverick has shown himself to be talented. But it is someone of his lineage who has the best of the plane at heart that should be the child of the plane. The first sage cares about the plane, so his descendants also care about the plane. They can be trusted, unlike Soverick.
The ability of foresight will also make the best use of the title. It will be like the days of old when he was the child of the plane. His descendants will bring glory to the plane again. For now, things will go according to plan. He just needs to encourage Soverick to continue now that he has gotten access to the core of the arena.
SOVERICK POV
The third challenge ended with him in possession of the divine crown. The world and everyone entered a stasis while the world spirits prepared the stage for the final challenge. Meanwhile, the divine crown created a key through the brand of its wielder. That key traveled to the core and created a vulnerability in the defense of the core as it was accepted. He punched through that vulnerability and gained access to the core.
"Finally." He said in excitement.
He can hardly wait to get his metaphorical hands on the loot that he has been after all along. He had to jump through hoops for it. It is finally his, so he is very excited.
His mind entered the core immediately, and he found himself within a white world. This time the world is not empty. It doesn't have the eye of the first sage, either. It does have what he wants. What he wants are multiple threads of different colors meshed together to form fabrics.
These fabrics are in multidimensional layers. They constitute the space-time continuum of the white world. It is how white light is actually made of varying bands of light, which leads to the creation of different colors after being separated. The fabrics are the true wealth of the core. It is what he has been craving for.
The core also gained access to his mind through the channel he created. The arena spirit can use that opportunity to attack his mind, but it left him alone without disturbing his mind. It continued to hover around the white space like an angry presence.
The core is the spirit, and the spirit is the core. So in a way, he has gained access to the arena spirit. It is understandable that it is unhappy with him. He ignored the moody spirit. He is not afraid of a mind attack. The sage promised him protection. He used his connection to the arena spirit of 28 to access its connections with the other cores in order to gain their wealth of information.
He has been feeding on the echoes of the law of Order of the first sage. Now, it is time to feast on the real deal. His exploration of the law matrix can be likened to his examining the footprint of a giant for information about the giant. Sure, he can make inferences about height and weight, including race, but it can't compare to seeing the truth with his own eyes, even if it is only a tiny corner of the truth.
The cores also contain information about the entire competition, including guidelines and time table. They are connected to each other and work together based on the instructions to create the arenas. Then he found some other cores that are totally different from the ones belonging to the first sage. He recognized their different make and the law of Order that made them. That made him realize their origin.I think you should take a look at
"This must have been made by that other world god. That means that the sage and this world god are responsible for the arenas that hold the competition." He thought in understanding.
He felt slight resistance from the cores from the other side of the competition when he tried to access them. They don't know him and have no reason to give him access to their cores. The cores that the serpentine world god made refused to share information with him.
He is a stranger to them. So he flashed the law of Order that he took from the rank 10 monster he defeated in the first challenge. Resistance fell away, and they gave him access to their cores immediately. That pure law that he took opened the door to the cores without the need for keys or vulnerabilities.
Now he has access to two different laws of order instead of two. He came for one law of order but he is getting two. He didn't complain at all. He plunged greedily into their depths and soaked up information as fast as his mind could transmit it.
The laws of order are massive. They are the foundation of a world after all. He will need at least an Origin Cycle for him to get everything about a single one of them even with the help of Legion-7. That's the lowest estimate. He doesn't have that much time. So he better make use of what he can now.
"Is this real?" He questioned himself when the reality of the situation came crashing into him, along with the data he was imbibing.
He should be engorging himself on the core instructions, but he was distracted by something he saw. He has gained access to various information and data that the world fragments collected on every competitor, but that is not as significant as the knowledge that the battle sage monkeys are in a competition with another race.
The full information of the fourth challenge entered his mind as the world fragments containing the battle sage monkeys joined with those containing the Vipers. He became informed about the format of the last challenge.
"So this was why he wanted me here." He exclaimed.
He got information about their opponents too. He found out about their total number and the number of paragons they have. He wasn't surprised about the existence of Paragons. He knows about them. In fact, one of Legion's clones is a paragon for another race. So the cheat-like ability of the paragons didn't surprise him.
