GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

As to how he knows why the king of law is here, it is because he can see cause and effect. He can see how the events played within the streams of mana that clung to the king of law. He saw how the king of law got to be here and what he wants so the sheet of paper fulfilled the task of talking between them and the souvenir that the king of law wants for his daughter.

The king of law began to grin from ear to ear after reading his piece of paper. He came for an autograph but got an entire sheet of paper with many words written on it. And he didn't even have to ask for him to get it. The Child of the plane already knew what he wanted.

He felt like thanking Soverick but the note said he shouldn't. So he kept quiet, for now. This experience is a story he will share with anyone that so much expresses half an interest. His daughter will be very happy when he gives this to her and tells her. He can just picture it.

The second piece of paper went to the female battle sage monkey with white fur and eyes that shift colors. She smiled when she received the sheet of paper but didn't read it. She doesn't need to read it to know what it says.

It says, "Stop trying to scry me, Salvini. You won't get anything from me and no, that doesn't prove that I am your soul mate. It just means you're incapable of manipulating me. Now let's get to the serious matter of why you're here. Salvos didn't come because he doesn't care and Salvin wanted to but you tricked him to go to another city. You're here to convince me to join the first Unified Skill Index competition. You have reasons to believe that you will succeed in this endeavor. I do not know your reasons for your confidence but I know that you will tell me soon."

Salvini is from the Empire of sages, one of the three sanctioned empires created by the racial council. It was established in honor of the sages. The empire of sages revolves around the family of sages and their descendants. It is the mouthpiece of the sages in the Virut plane. They have sent the current generation of sages to convince him to join the competition. There are three of them in this generation of sages all litter mates.

Salvo and Salvin are her brothers. They were supposed to come together but Salvini made it so that only she will be here. She wants to have him all to herself because of some weird reasons. One of those reasons is that the two of them have the same amount of litter mates which is not a coincidence but a hidden message that they are alike and were made for each other.

The third note that he wrote went to the male golden-furred battle sage monkey among them. He and Soverick have the same color of fur but their similarities end there. This battle sage monkey has a mane around his neck and head that makes him look like a lion. He has two eyes and they are yellow with vertical pupils.

His piece of paper said, "Stop disturbing me Jarkon. I am not in the mood for a fight and no, I am not going to accept your challenge at a later date. You're supposed to be here to protect Salvini but you're going to try and push your agenda about that time I killed a lot of people. Now keep quiet and let the adults talk."

Jarkon is from the Empire of Justice. It was created around the Drastfarth family, a family of justice seekers. They have the bloodline of the lion of justice. They are goody too shoes that the racial council has given the power to police the Virut realm.

The rules of living in the Virut plane are lax. There's a lot of freedom and there are no taxes for those that aren't origin gods with a family in the plane. Might make right in the plane but there are some acts considered crimes.

These crimes are mainly crimes against the race, not the individual. Like poisoning and massacring mortals, or interfering in their government. Mortals are people that have decided not to refine themselves and evolve. They stay in empires and live their lives away from the world of refiners.

Mortals are the bedrock of the battle sage monkey society. Their reproduction rate is unhampered due to their weakness, so if anything were to happen to the cultivators where they die en mass, the mortals will be able to replenish the population and prevent the extinction of the race. The three sanctioned empires are where mortals live in safety and protection. To harm mortals is to offend the racial council.

The other crimes are like destroying property belonging to the racial council or breaking the rules of the race. He hasn't done any of that but Jahkon has it out for him because of the time he killed a lot of people who came to challenge him. It is not a crime but Jahkon considers it one since one of his brothers died in that incident. Now he is hell-bent on revenge.

Jahkon read his paper and became silent. But he is seething and bitter about it if the glare on his face is any indication. Unfortunately for him, his eyes can't kill or harm others. He doesn't have the right bloodline for his gaze to harm Soverick. So his glare is only hateful and not harmful to Soverick.

The fourth note went to the heroic spirit. This battle sage monkey also has pure white fur. The heroic spirit doesn't have a bloodline. That's due to being alive in an era where royal bloodlines were things of dreams. This particular heroic spirit was a sage that died during the war against the Vipers.
