The Warrogs howled in agreent. They had the devil's pit surrounded as they howled in victory. The sound of 10 million beings shouting at the top of their lungs is truly a loud sound. It is as if the Warrogs want everyone in the plane to know of their recent success.
Then they beca silent for their Empress to continue.
"The slaves of the Vampires have failed to stop us. They ran away in defeat before the might of the Warrogs. Soon their masters will fall to the death that our jaws will bring. This mont marks the rise of Warrogs' glory forever."
Then she raised her delicate snout and howled. Her soldiers howled with her too. They were filled with confidence and excitent. They had a very strong Emperor who would liberate their race. Nothing could stand in their way.
Emperor Rinoz fired a Star Nova down into the bottom of the crater. The star shot out of her mouth at great speed. It struck the gate and then bounced off of it like a rubber ball. The star bounced to the far side of the gate, where it began to pull and devour everything it could lay its gluttonous mouth on. Rinoz knew it wouldn't work even before it exploded.
"What just happened?" She said in shock when her Star Nova bounced upon striking the gate.
She is powerful, surely. No one can deny that. But she is young. Her lack of ti to fully grow is stopping her from showcasing her full potential. One of the limits imposed on her is her lack of knowledge and experience. She can't discern what happened despite seeing it occur.
It was Fenrir who understood why her divine ability bounced off the gate. His heart fell imdiately.
"I have heard of this before. This gate is not ordinary. It appears to be an origin artifact," he said to her.
She asked in frustration, "What does that have to do with anything?"
Fenrir patiently explained, "It contains laws within it. The gate was forged with laws. It needs the power of laws to harm it. Do you understand now?"
She understood imdiately. She doesn't know any law. The reason why she doesn't know any law is because she is too young. She hasn't been a Transcendent for more than 200 years. Talented people with royal bloodlines and the ancestral mories that co with it will have both the law fragnts and instincts to comprehend a law in at least 1 origin cycle. That is 100,000 years.
As for others, it will take longer. Mihila was 50 origin cycles old as a king of law. She had no bloodline whatsoever so it took her a long ti to comprehend a law. Her husband, Ghoto, had a royal bloodline of low purity and it took him at least 10 origin cycles to beco a king of law.
It is understandable that a young girl like her without any bloodline and poor law affinity will not have comprehended any laws in so little ti. It is no sha. In fact, she is doing well enough for herself already. She has much to be proud of. Unfortunately, what she has achieved is just not good enough for what she is currently attempting. So might say that she has bitten more than she can chew.
Fenrir thinks she has bitten more than she can chew. But he is not going to say that to her face. Especially not when she is currently angry. And she is very angry. It can be seen plainly on her frowning face and her strained deanor.
Fenrir chose to watch the effect of her divine ability just like Rinoz.
"I hope I am wrong." He thought to himself. "I truly hope so."
All the sound in the world was drowned out by the shrill whistling sound of the Star Nova exerting its influence upon the world. Soil and rocks responded. Wind and mana answered. Everything responded except for the gate.
The gate is a heavy object anchored deeply into the earth. Its foundation runs through the surface down to the Underdark. It refused to budge, and the Star Nova lacked the Authority to move it. Then the Star Nova exploded, utilizing all the condensed energy within it as fuel. The edge of the crater where it was positioned was flattened by the explosion.
The explosion yielded its customary effects: a blinding flash of light, a deafening boom, and finally, an intense blast of heat. All of this transpired. However, the gate remained intact after the dust cleared. In fact, more of the gate was revealed. The size of the gate exceeded that of the pit. Every newly revealed surface remained pristine and unhard. It was not a sight that the child of the plane wanted to see.
Emperor Rinoz's eyes twitched. She roared in frustration and defiance. Then she fired more Star Novas at the gate in anger. This ti, she ensured they didn't have too much montum. So the Star Novas did not reach high speeds. They stopped close to the gate's surface and did not bounce off.
Several Star Novas detonated very close to the gate. The gate shook, and the environnt quaked due to the impact of the multiple explosions. Nevertheless, the gate remained intact. It didn't even shake. It refused to be cowered by her brute force.
The sight of this failure seed to have drained her of sothing important.
She struggled to say, "I can't believe it. I just can't believe it."
She can see the result as clear as day, but she can't believe it. The gate's smooth surface shone from being polished by the explosions. It reflected the light that she produces passively back at her. It is as if it is mocking her.
She complained to Fenrir, "But I am as powerful as Origin gods. The fountain of life told that. This shouldn't be happening."
She sounded aggrieved like soone who has been deceived or cheated. Fenrir remained silent.
