Even if Legion-7's willingness to commit suicide is not enough to bring all of them and their tenth clone down, it is bound to work if they employ the assistance of the void universe in it too. After all, no world god can overpower the void universe.
What the void universe hates the most is tampering with ti, so if they try to rewind ti, the backlash should be heavy enough to kill them. Even if the First Sage succeeds against all odds and blocks that backlash on their behalf, they will be able to actually return to the past and undo what the First Sage did to them.
If that still doesn't work, then they will let CARNAGE lose or make Aeternus descend into his Demonic Spark. These are extre asures that they don't want to do, which is why they are saving them for last.
It is a series of plans that cannot fail. All of Legion were of one mind in that regard. If they all fail, then they truly deserve to beco enslaved by the first sage.
They were determined not to face that ending so they were determined and didn't hold back as Legion-7 used Legion-4's cosmic manipulation to manipulate the world outside of their minds, then used Legion-5's cosmic domain to freeze the world, and then tried to rewind ti.
They selected a large area to rewind its tis so as to ensure that even if the First Sage manages to interfere and they fail to return to the past, the backlash of their attempt will wound or kill the First Sage.
They were right about the size of the backlash. The void universe was furious. The backlash struck them with vengeance. Legion-7 accepted the backlash to himself readily. He didn't let it go to the clones.
They had done all they could and were waiting for the First Sage's move. They were sure to counter it, but their expectations were subverted.
The tenth clone only laughed as their minds began to co apart. He was not mocking them for their desperate attempt or taunting them about its failure. Their plan did work. It was just too easy.
The First Sage didn't stop them at all. All he did was laugh. Legion-7's spark of consciousness shattered, and he succeeded in destroying his backup of all the clones easily. There was no resistance, so it occurred quickly.
He died, and so did all of Legion. The backlash made certain of it. The white ntal world darkened instantly. It didn't shake or crack like it did last ti. It just went dark and died.
The last thing they saw before they lost their consciousness was the first sage finally saying sothing.
The First Sage said to them, "I am the Eye of the Sage. I bring my desired future to pass. You can never beat ."
He taunted them again, "You have lost. You can't escape . I will always co after you. This has changed nothing."
This reminded them of the vision the first sage had seen when they allowed the curse to enter their soul. What Soverick had seen back then has co through now. That fact alone didn't make them happy. What the first sage said as they died made them feel worse.
The First Sage was right. They had lost at that mont. Back then, Soverick didn't know if he was in a prediction competition with the first sage or if it had started. He knows all of it now. He also knows that they fell into another trap by killing themselves. It is a trap that they didn't have a choice in. They lost right from the mont they comprehended the first sage's Supre Law, and they have been losing since.
They promised themselves, "We will never tamper with any Supre Law again." That's the last thing that went through their minds. They have to go to sleep now, and it is going to be a very long ti because Legion-7 can't resurrect them, and the void universe is kind of angry with them. They are going to pay for the ti they tried to rewind, so their resurrection won't start for a while.
They don't believe that they were overreacting when they made that promise because sothing they thought could never happen happened to them all because they ssed with the supre law of a world god.
They had three thods of resurrection, the soul sphere, Legion-7, and the immortality of Origin gods through the void universe. But sohow, they had rendered all three of them incapable of resurrecting them in a short amount of ti.
The soul sphere needs at least one of them alive to help them. It can't help them if there is no clone to bear the soul sphere. They have to wait for the void universe to get around to resurrecting them like any other Origin god. If it is too late and they don't resurrect within an Origin cycle, then they will miss out on the era of conquest completely.
All of this happened because they wanted it to happen. It was the best outco for them after everything happened. With the first sage in their minds, and with them out in the void, anything could have happened to them. It was better to kill themselves than fall into the first sage's hands. So no they don't think they were overreacting when they made that promise.
anwhile, the era of conquest continued without them. Mother High Heaven had just announced the start of the era of conquest in the High Heaven realm. The realm lord has gone to barricade the Tyrant Realm. Weak entities in the high heaven realm were just leaving to avoid danger, while Origin gods were just arriving.
The remnant of Legion, on the other hand, is floating around in the void. This remnant is the world fragnt that they built. It is still standing since they didn't use any Supre Law in making it directly. They just copied the chanism of the Supre Laws, which ans it wasn't part of the struggle with the first sage.
