GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Sovereigns are a queer bunch. Just like there are weak titans because of their restraint, and there are strong titans because of their active embodiment, there are also different levels of Sovereigns. This is based on the complexity of their seed of power. The weakest sovereign is still on par with a grand god but the strongest sovereign can be as strong as a celestial god. Only a god King or the celestial supreme can tussle with an origin god.

The seed of power is the foundation of a sovereign. Even if a sovereign dies, the seed of power will remain. The seed of power is eternal. When a titan goes through the valley of the shadow of death and comes out of it, they create something eternal. Then if that Sovereign fuses with his seed of power, they too can become eternal. In a way, it is the greatest birth by the lower realm. The gestation of a mortal to birth an immortal.

The moment a titan of law ascends to sovereignty is eternal. Sovereigns can die but the number of Sovereigns hardly reduces. The seed of power of a dead sovereign of law can be absorbed by a titan of law to become another sovereign but this sovereign will never be able to become an origin god and they will also be the weakest type of Sovereign.contemporary romance

The world is made up of laws. Beneath what can be seen or experienced is the law matrix, a complicated network created due to the interactions of concepts. Only when someone becomes a Transcendent can they come into contact with this law matrix. It is from it that they learn the laws of the world to become lords and kings of law before they go on to become titans of law.

When someone becomes a sovereign, that person condenses a seed of power within their origin core. Then they can use this seed of power to access the law matrix. It is a concept within them, that they can use to manipulate the concepts of the world. It is like a key that gives them the permission to use world power as they wish.

Titans can also use world power but it is passive, they can't control it, but sovereigns gain active control of the world. The world becomes an extension of their will. Their will becomes Sovereign within the lower realm.

Unfortunately, they can't use this power within a shackled plane like the Virut plane. What they can do is replace world power with their will, since they cannot use it, then no one can. Gods happen to be creatures that rely heavily on world power. It is the world that elevates them to their level as a result of the wishes of the people. The power is not permanent and they can fall. But Sovereigns wield the same power because they deserve it. After all, they worked for it. They braved the chance of death, the very thing that scares gods, to acquire this power. So they cannot be insulted and called lowly.

Even an Origin god cannot bully a sovereign with their powers in the lower realm. Several Sovereigns of law may not be able to kill an Origin god but a Single Origin god cannot bully them. Origin gods are too suppressed by the plane to use their full power. A sovereign's seed of power is protected within their Origin core but an Origin god has become the concept. That's why Origin gods can be suppressed so easily and so much.

"This is why we are called Sovereigns. We are not called gods, but sovereigns. We are above everyone else and there is no one above us in the lower realm. We are not lowly." As Tandrak spoke the Grand god weakened.

Tandrak's divine sense eliminated the support the grand god was getting from the world. Tandrak's will immobilized the grand god. The avatar could do nothing but watch.

"You are not even here with your main body or it would be a real fight." Tandrak shook his head.

The grand god didn't panic. It was not a surprising outcome. This is why he tried to ambush Ghoto in the first place. His avatar can harass a sovereign at best, it can't even defeat a titan with full certainty. Ghoto had even survived the ambush. So he was not surprised that he was bested by the sovereign. The golem might allow them to use their raw power, but raw power isn't everything. There's a need for finesse and authority. Something only his main body had.

"It is of no matter. The dignity of a god cannot be defiled. I will be back." The grand god said.

Tandrak opened his mouth and spoke. "Sunder."

The single word he spoke discharged the brewing lightning in the clouds. The lightning fell like a waterfall onto the grand god. The golem disintegrated immediately when the pillar of lightning struck it. It was like how a waterfall will peel away at a rock but much faster. Tandrak wouldn't have needed to prepare for the attack if he was in a liberated plane. The origin energy in the plane and his access to world power will allow him to instantly cast apocalyptic spells.

The lightning didn't disappear, it formed into a colossal lightning drake. Tandrak stepped onto the head of the lightning and began to approach the defense of the resistance army.

The lightning drake was constantly roaring and shouting in the voice of thunder. The thunder claps created shockwaves that destroyed whatever it came in contact with. At least that's what it looked like. The massive golem army that was being manufactured didn't stand a chance against Tandrak's approach. No matter how many they were, they would always disintegrate in waves.

Tandrak continued unopposed, the path of destruction he carved through the battlefield made him stand out and he easily became the target of focus fire. Energy cannons and annihilating beams focused on him but all their efforts were in vain, they would always disintegrate into pure energy whenever they entered a certain range around him.

Tandrak (Thunder drake) became a titan of law by combining the laws of lightning and thunder. Thunder is sound. Tandrak had a low bloodline purity, so even though he awakened it, he never got a god-level talent. It is why his union with a woman without a bloodline created a son without an awakened bloodline. The best Tandrak got from his bloodline was a top-level talent for lightning. The purity of his bloodline affected what he gained from its awakening, it also reduced the bloodline's influence on his personality. He had always been a silent child while others with more bloodline influence were always full of energy and talkative.

He was ambitious and hardworking, he wanted to create a concept of destruction but he didn't have the affinity for it. So he improvised and fused the law of sound with lightning to create a synergistic effect.

Lightning is energy, energy in a highly excited state. Sound is the vibration of matter. Sound can be as small as the rise and fall of an electron within the orbital levels of an atom to create a photon, totally inaudible but of major significance. Or it can be as loud as a collapsing star, still inaudible to weak beings. But every titan of law has heard the sound of one as the stars within them collapsed.

He realized that sound needed energy to start and it can also lead to the creation of energy. And lightening is energy easily agitated. Their combination amplified their effects. He can use lightening to fuel sound creation and use vibration manipulation to either increase or reduce the energy levels of matter, thereby achieving the destruction of matter which further creates more energy. This is the path he chose.

His concept is strong against both matter and energy. As long as he knows the vibration frequency of anything, be it matter or energy, they will become susceptible to his ability. The energy cannons and annihilating beams are energy attacks, they will always disintegrate whenever they come under his area of influence. They are both formed from highly excited energy so they are unstable and looking for a release, he just as to provide the release by siphoning their energy through sound and they will become harmless.

What's worse for the resistance force is that the thunder drake beneath him was getting bigger and more fearsome, easily surpassing a kilometer in length, which lead to the expansion of the shockwaves coming from it. All the energy he siphons is directed to his thunder drake which boosts its capabilities.

With Tandrak leading the way, it made it easier for others to approach the defensive barrier of the resistance army. Tandrak's was finally stopped by the barrier shield surrounding the entrenched army. He focused on the barrier and made comparations between its parameters and those he had in his database. He never forgets a vibration frequency he has acquired in the past so even though the shield was very complicated due to it being created by several war fortresses, he still determined its frequency in a relatively short amount of time. Things were easier since he could physically touch it. That's why he favors meeting people face to face.
