Soverick didn't ask for heroics or special performances. It was a simple request that bristled some people. He even told them not to mess up his simple request. He had said that he wasn't asking for something difficult from them. They are to aim for normal Vipers and only normal Vipers. He made to emphasize what he wanted them to do.
His request was simple but they were not happy with it. After all, he was asking them not to take on the more difficult enemies. They thought that he was exaggerating the power of the Paragons. They thought he was underestimating them. They thought he was too proud and full of himself to believe that he could handle the Paragons that came his way on his own.
She herself thought he was overacting. Now she knows that they all thought wrong. She can see what will happen to her if she flies up to confront the spell tower. She will be shredded to nothing. Soverick was right, for them to face a paragon is to waste their life away. It is to die in vain.
She has seen the truth that they can't fight a paragon at all. The sky is obviously not the path of salvation. She stuck to the ground and hid amongst the normal troops. She is literally using her soldiers as defensive materials but she is barely surviving. She is using the best of her foresight just to keep herself alive. Asking anything else of her is foolishness. So Soverick was not foolish when he made his simple request.
The spell tower has made both her, someone with the power of an emperor, and her weak crown-less soldiers equal. They are all scrambling for their life on the ground.
In the face of death, every mortal is equal. Only the strength to overcome death can separate the mortals. Salvini doesn't have the strength to overcome this death. So she is a weak mortal just like the rest of them. She is running and scrambling for her life just like them.
She is staying alive just so that she will be able to fulfill the request of killing a single Viper. But there is a problem with that. It is true that she can't take on a paragon but she can't do anything else since the normal vipers are not here yet. The paragons ran ahead of their army. They are much faster than the normal vipers so they left them behind. The problem is that she may not be able to survive in this hell where she has found herself before the normal Vipers reach her.
The world was booming. There were thunderclaps and thundering explosions. There was fire and brimstone. It was hell on earth. Battle sage monkeys were dying everywhere. They are being mowed down in the thousands. The spell tower was on a roll. She might just finish them off before the normal vipers arrive. Then it all stopped. The world returned to silence.
Salvini saw it before it happened and had to hold back the impulse to sigh in relief. It was until the spell tower actually left that she allowed herself to sigh in relief.
She asked, "Has it really been less than 2 minutes?"I think you should take a look at
The end of the world has been abated. The spell tower stopped bullying them and left them alone. Salvini looked around at the destruction that she can see and she had to ask herself if it has only been 2 minutes. If anyone had been in her shoes then they too will ask themselves that same question. It is especially pertinent when your sense of time is warped by your ability to see the future. You have to make sure you're still sane and not just seeing things.????????????????????????????????.????????????
"To think they have a soul body like I do." She observed.
She had to compare herself to the paragons. She has a soul body like them. She is just a transcendent and they may be lords or kings of law but they have all been rendered somewhat equal. The paragons aren't even using any crowns while she on the other hand is already empowered to the limit of the world. They have no augmentation from the world like her and yet the difference between them is so massive. She can only imagine how powerful they will be in the real world without the limitations placed on them.
Then she looked back at the direction that the spell tower left in. It was the direction that they came from. It is where their flag should be.
She shook her head and said, "I hope that he will be alright."
She wished him well. That's the best that she can do for Soverick. She hasn't seen the full capabilities of the paragons but what she can see is enough to know that they are very tough to deal with and Soverick has to deal with 6 of them. 2 speedsters, 2 brutes, 1 immortal power, and 1 spell tower will all focus on him.
Salvini is not envious of that sort of attention. She has seen what happens when one of the Paragons focuses on something and it was disastrous. So she can only imagine what kind of calamities will be spilled forth upon Soverick with the 6 of them focusing on him and hope that she doesn't have to experience the calamities herself.
She doesn't envy him at all. In fact, she wants no part to do with it at all. She used to think that if the paragons were so powerful, how come only he should defend their flag? She still doesn't think that Soverick is capable of handling every one of them but that doesn't mean she will go and help him. There's no way she will join in on the carnival that is playing back there. If he can't defend their flag then they are done for and that's that. There's nothing she can or wants to do about it.
