GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

He assessed his new host thoroughly. "This is not great but it is not bad either. I have about 10 days of tin this body. That is too short. But at least, I have learned how to avoid the tribulation when I change bodies."

This series of hosts has taught him a valuable lesson in how to avoid the law matrix while changing hosts. It is good news. But then he lamented, "But is this my life now? I'm I to forever wander looking for a host to hidefrom the wrath of heaven? Is my situation so hopeless? I don't want to return to the spiritual dimension."

Then he encouraged himself. "At least I am in the world of manifestation. My situation is better than the great mothers. I have access to the law matrix. I just have to find a way to use it without incurring lightning punishment."

He decided to take advantage of his situation to use the law matrix. If he can find a way to use it, then he might be able to evolve his soul. That will surely make up for the unjust treatment he has received from the Will of the realm.

But he got a dose of brutal awakening as soon as he attempted to make contact with the law matrix. He didn't use his tentacles so as not to expose himself to the law matrix. What he used was his divine sense.

It is the sway transcendents and everyone access the law matrix. Their solidified law matrix would feel pressure from the matrix formed by law fragments. However, unlike others who get to interact with the law matrix with varying levels of difficulty according to their law affinity, he was rejected immediately when his divine sense made contact with the law matrix. Bolts of red lightning appeared around him and struck his host.

"What's is your problem? I am not even outside of my host. My divine sense has not left my host. Be reasonable!" He finished complaining with an exasperated shout.

He had retracted his divine sense immediately but the damage had been done. The body of his host had been struck by lightning. Its integrity had fallen drastically.

"I curse you, Will of the void universe. I curse you." He said in anguish as he went in search of another host.

He escaped most of the damage from the lightning but his host took the brunt of the damage. The mana entity should have been able to last 10 days but it won't last an hour anymore because of the damage. Fortunately, the host has sKontinuu friends that are mana entities. Legion-7 hurriedly went in search of them.

He found one of them soon after. The Kontinuu is the main intelligent race on the plane. They descended from an avian ancestor that evolved into a humanoid form so they possess sfeatures of birds such as feathers for hair.

There are plenty Kontinuu in the plane so he can surely find a new host quickly if he were desperate. But he went looking for someone on close terms with his current host so that the transfer of the honor of being his host would take place without any issue.

The friend smiled and called to him, "Brother Kie. How are you? You look strange? Are you alright?"

His host does look strange. He is walking strangely and his eyes aren't moving at all. He is just staring forward while moving with slight jerks.

Legion-7 snorted and rebuked inwardly, "What do you know? Do you think controlling someone else is easy? What an ignorant fool."

He is not in a good mood right now but he still made his host smile.

The host smiled stiffly and said, "I am fine Dato. I have something important to tell you. Let's go inside to have a chat."ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ N(o)vᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt

Dayton asked, "What is it? I hope there is no problem."

Kie assured with a jerky wave of his clawed hand, "Of course not. This is a good thing for you. I want to enlighten you about something. It is important that you know so that people won't call you ignorant or a fool."

Dato didn't suspect his friend Kie of any Ill intent. He said, "Alright. Let's go in."

They went in and Legion-7 transferred himself to Dato. Kie fell down dead immediately after Legion-7 left his body. Dato the new host carried the dead body to the basement to destroy it. It was then that Legion-7 could relax.

He made a summary of his situation. "I can't stay in one host for long and I can't use the law matrix at all. But my situation is not entirely bad. There are gods here. I should focus on that. It might be the key to my evolution. At the very least, the existence of a god should be more sturdy than these fragile mortals. I should be able to use one as a host for much longer."

His situation is not pleasant or promising. But he is not willing to admit defeat. No matter how bad his situation is, it is not as bad as the spiritual dimension. He will not give up as long as he lives.

Besides, he hasn't suffered for a long period of time. The total amount of the has existed is less than 300 years. That is a very short amount of tfor someone who has experienced 8 Origin cycles. He can withstand longer periods of suffering than this.

He also knows that if he gives up struggling and falls to the spiritual dimension, he might never be able to cto the world of manifestation again. The void universe is actively trying to kill him now. Any chance that he gives the void universe might lead to his death.

So he focused on the bright side. Since he can't use the law matrix to evolve, he will try to use godhoods to evolve. He intends to do that until he can meet up with other clones of Legion.
