The realm lord gave a half-hearted attempt at clapping and said, "Nice analysis. I would be more impressed with how you ca to this conclusion if you couldn't see the future."
"I can't see your future."
"But you can still see your future, so that still counts as cheating."
"Do you want the white ball or not?"
"I want it. In exchange, I will give you the assistance you need to get the realm heart fragnts you need to beco world gods. I am so generous that I will help you nine tis."
The Tree Father replied. "Not good enough."
The realm lord asked incredulously, "What do you an, not enough? What else do you want?"
He didn't wait for Legion-9 to speak before he continued. "How about this? I will help Legion for as many chances to suppress a realm as you need. That way, if you fail a realm war, it won't stop all of your clones from getting the realm heart fragnts you need."
The Tree Father shook his head again. "Not enough."
The realm lord scowled and said, "Now don't go too far. I have already done my best with this deal."
Soverick and the other clones didn't think so. They have access to other tilines where the realm lord offered a better deal.
So the Tree Fathe said, "No, you haven't tried your best."
The realm lord laughed. It was not a laugh of amusent. It was a laugh of derision.
He laughed and asked, "I may not have tried my best, but that's what the white ball is worth. You can't get anything more than that."
The Tree Father paused as Soverick analyzed the future. Then he said, "I don't think so. I think it is worth at least 15 realm hearts."
The realm looked as if he had been smacked in the face. But he didn't beco angry and lash out. He said calmly, "3 realm hearts and 6 assistance for realm wars."
The Tree Father anded his demands, "12 realm hearts and no assistance."
The realm lord countered, "7 realm hearts and no assistance."
"10 realm hearts and no assistance."
The realm lord gritted his teeth before speaking. "9 realm hearts and no assistance. Final offer."
The Tree Father shook his head. "Not enough."
The realm lord's eyes flashed. He asked gloomily, "What else do you want? Do not test right now. You have made angry enough by ssing with my plans, and we still have a score to settle after I beco a world god. It will be in your interest not to give more reasons to co after you."
The Tree Father chuckled and said, "It doesn't matter what we do. You will still co after us. You don't even need a reason to do so. From what we've heard, you are mad. You can't be judged by common sense."
Monarch High Heaven threatened them, "I can be worse. I can be so much worse that you would wish I could be judged by common sense. I pray you won't ever have that wish."
Legion thought about it and still decided to go ahead with it, so the Tree Father asked, "We want you to tell us what the white ball is and how we can fuse worlds if we have multiple worlds."
"Is that all?"
Soverick confird. "That and how you managed to produce Authority. If you give us this information and the nine realm hearts, then we will give you the white ball."
Aeternus insisted on them asking for that last. It is more of a side note. It is the second request that is the most important. So they would be willing to let the last request go if the realm lord refused.
Monarch High Heaven said, "Swear to it."
Legion-9 swore imdiately. "I swear upon the Origin of Legion that if the realm lord of High Heaven Realm gives us the information about the identity of this white ball in our possession, the information on how to fuse worlds, and nine sets of realm heart fragnts complete with their world sparks, and finally, the information about how he managed to create Authority, we will give him the white ball imdiately after he swears that he has fulfilled his part of his deal. If we do not, then let our Origin perish."
Legion took a stringent oath. It can be said to be without loopholes. It shows Legion's sincerity. After all, they are already fleecing Monarch High Heaven, it will not be wise to try and cheat him too. But they were cautious enough to require the realm lord to swear that he has fulfilled his part of the deal before they give him what he wants.
The realm lord nodded. He also swore not to cheat them. Then he smiled and said, "You may cheat by seeing the future, but you are also predictable. You should be more like the first sage. But it is not too late for you. I'm sure you will beco a force of your own if you manage to beco world gods."
He didn't explain what he ant by calling them predictable. He let that bother them before he continued, "Anyway, that white ball is the final form of one of the ancestors of Tyrants. It was called a Shiki. This ancestor was epheral and had a short lifespan. They died and produced two offspring with their deaths. The offspring solved this issue with parasitism and finally reproduced with another enemy to create the Tyrants."
"There was sothing that the offspring tried to use to overco their short lifespan. They fused with each other. This didn't solve their problem. It backfired and consud them. This was the case with the Shikis. It was also the case in Tyrants. They couldn't sustain the fusion, so they will eventually die."
"But there will be a change in the outco of the fusion if the ones that used the fusion are Supre Tyrants using the ability of Parasitism to siphon power from the realm tree."
A/N: Why do you think the realm lord called Legion predictable?
