Chapter 1713: One Or Two.
Their reliance on each other cuts back on their need of Origin essence for resurrection. They can use their Origin essence to grow faster by investing it in making their concepts stronger. This helps them to take full advantage of the speed of their two minds working on
comprehending the same law.
So not only do they return from the dead faster, they also comprehend laws faster and become stronger faster. These are all advantages that they will lose if they make two Supreme laws.
Concepts don't work well with each other because they interact, and when they do, one of them must manifest above the other. One concept must become dominant while the other is repressed. This antagonistic reaction is suppressed in Geminis thanks to their separate Origin. But a Supreme Law will not be held back by an Origin.
A Supreme Law is greater than the barrier of soul, origin, and body. Sometimes it is greater than the barrier in time and space. A Supreme Law seeks to overwrite all of existence. Any connection with a Supreme Law, be it physical, spiritual, or mental, is more than enough for it to act and rewrite a target. That's how a Supreme Law can kill two Gemini twins at the same time by killing one twin.
So if they have two Supreme Laws, they will have to go their separate ways and become two completely unattached entities that will try to kill each other in the future. Supreme laws just can't work together, even if they were born as twins.
On the other hand, if they make one Supreme Law together, they will become a single entity. They won't be two entities with separate bodies and a connection between them. They will be one entity with one mind, body, and energy for all intents and purposes. The fusion of their existence will create a completely different entity from the two of them.
The decision to make one or two Supreme Laws depends on just how close the twins are to each other. It will be easier to make a Supreme Law if they work together on it, and the Supreme Law will also be stronger due to the fusion of two concepts and identities. But losing their identities is also not palatable. After all, it is a kind of death.
Unfortunately, this decision is not easy to make. It is made especially tricky by the fact that the two of them have to agree to go their separate ways if they want two Supreme laws. They have to wait for each other to build their Supreme laws and complete them at the same time. This will cause them to split and become independent.
If, by chance, one of the twins completes their Supreme Law before the other, the late twin will have no choice but to be overwritten. So if one twin doesn't want them to separate, then things can get a little messy.
That's why these Gemini twins are fighting each other in an attempt to kill the other one. Their conflict started an immortal war, but unlike other immortal wars fought for benefits, these two are fighting just to kill their twin.
The death of a twin will stall the creation of their Supreme Law. The living twin will extend this delay indefinitely by suppressing the regeneration of the dead one. Things will become too late when the living one creates a Supreme Law. The dead one will be allowed to regenerate then, only to be overwritten.
The two twins are not alone in this fight. They have friends and helpers that they hired. They are going all out because this concerns life and death. Each one came with an army to make sure that the other one dies.
Noctus called out to his brother, "We don't have to do this."
His brother laughed. It was a laugh of despair. He shook his head and said, "I'm afraid we have to. You have left me no choice in the matter."
"But it is for the best of us. The universe has given us such a great opportunity. It would be a shame not to make full use of it."
Noctin stopped laughing. He said angrily, "I don't care. You want to kill me, so I must fight."
Noctus defended himself, "This is your fault. Things would have been better if you had decided to work with me. The sacrifice would have been from both of us instead of just you."
Noctin disagreed. "It doesn't matter at this point. I have to go my own way and be my own person. Freedom is better than power."
Noctus screamed in frustration, "You fool. Power is better than freedom. Power is the prerequisite for freedom. Power is freedom. Without power, there will be no freedom."
Noctin refuted with disdain, "What would you know of power? I have always been the stronger one."
"If you are so strong, then you shouldn't feel threatened right now. The fact that you are threatened by me is proof of where power truly is and its importance."
Noctin couldn't refute him, so he shrugged and said, "It won't matter where power truly is if I kill you."
Noctus bared his teeth and said, "Same to you too."n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om
Then he pointed at his brother and said to his army, "Kill that fool."
His brother did the same thing. "Kill that imbecile for me."
Their argument was mental. Their respective armies didn't hear what they were saying. No one could spy on their conversation either because it was directly from one soul to the other and didn't use divine sense at all.
The security of their mind will remain so unless they comprehend too much of a Supreme Law without the protection of their own Supreme Law. As for the immortals they brought with them, none of them are Supreme Origin gods, so they couldn't spy on them. But they heard the call to kill, so the two armies swarmed each other.
A/N: Anyone else getting familiar vibes from Noctus And Noctin?
