"And it is not just him... I've sent my other clones into other worlds like Purgatory and the Icy World, looking for powerful Magi with the strength to lead us into war!"
Mother Core said with authority that this was all part of her plans. Through her clones, she has been searching for the talents that would lead the forces of the Magus World to victory against the World of Gods.
As soone who has lived through the Final War, she knew that the Magi made a lot of mistakes, a mistake that cost them, technically speaking, losing the war, falling, many killed or imprisoned, and many other dire consequences.
This ti, it couldn't happen again.
This ti, they needed to win the war.
"We're making preparations for the second war? I understand!"
Ignox nodded his head vigorously, wanting to return and start his preparations.
He wasn't a coward, but the war was just too terrifying, and in the end, he would have preferred if such a thing had never really happened. Beings of Law were, technically speaking, ageless beings that would live for eternity and they had all the ti they needed to advance to the next Rank.
In the end, Ignox, like many other Magi, grew to contend with the current situation as it wasn't that bad in the first place. Sothing so dangerous, like the Final War between the World of Gods and Magus World, would, once again, bring an unprecedented number of killed Rank 7 and Rank 8 Magi.
A Rank 7 was re collateral damage in a battle between peak Rank 8s, and he was now in danger of death. He wouldn't even know how he'd died if he participated in such a ranking battle between such powerhouses.
Yet, at the sa ti, it was also a place of opportunity because the Magi could absorb God's comprehension of Laws and grow stronger quickly. In such a way, there was even a possibility of Rank 6 Breaking Dawn Magus reaching the peak Rank 8 if he was lucky enough.
That was also the reason why the Final War erupted for the first ti.
Greed for more and more power.
***
Misty green origin force surged in a boundless sea, containing absolute strength as it swelled and roared. This energy represented the Magus World itself, the power of its Origin.
In front of these waves that were emitted by the Magus World itself, Leylin, with his ager power, seed like a re ant.
In front of the powerful Origin Force, everyone seed little, as they were standing against the very own essence of the Magus World itself.
As a powerful Being of Law, a Law God, Leylin had already assimilated this aura into his Soul once he advanced to Rank 7 and achieved the Law Godhood. The Origin Force didn't reject him, instead enveloping him gently and replenishing his powers.
"Almighty and pure, as expected of the Magus World. Only the origin force of the World of Gods could be of similar quality…"
With his ti spent within the World of Gods and abilities to analyze things, he was able to identify the differences very quickly.
'It's not entirely impossible to reach peak Rank 8 or even Rank 9 if I could fully master this origin force…'
Leylin's eyes held a trace of longing, but it was only a dream for now.
Through his acute senses, he felt that this roaring sea of origin force had an extrely powerful conscient sleeping within, with nurous broken Laws seeping out.
One could absorb so of the Origin Force, but if they wanted to monopolize it they would only be courting death. Even existences such as Mother Core were not able to do as they wished.
'Still, the only way to reach that Rank would be as Father of All Devils told, but that thod is too restraining and I would never be able to leave the Magus World unless the Magus World is directly connected to another World during the World Assimilation Process.'
Leylin heard about certain thods that one could achieve even Rank 9 from the Zeoticus Lucifer, the Father of All Devils, through the assimilation of the Origin Force. While he had to admit that the shortcut was certainly tempting, it was not really sothing worth it.
He knew that with the special thod, he could achieve Rank 9 through assimilation of the Origin Force into his body, refining his control over the Laws and comprehending the new Laws, obtaining his Path and even ascending to the Rank 9.
Not only would he beco Rank 9 Law God, but he would also beco a very powerful Rank 9 Law God at that.
Yet, there was balance in everything.
The price was steep, and anyone who used this thod would beco sothing equal to the Regent Guardian of the Magus World's Will. He wouldn't be able to leave the Magus World at all, and he also wouldn't be able to intervene in anything that was taking place within the Magus World.
Aside from that, he would be required to stay within this place for all eternity and guard the Magus World's Will all the ti.
He would also be required to regularly clean up the Magus World from any potential dangers to the World and kill any Magi or lifeforms that were causing damage to the Magus World; this went without exception.
And there was also the responsibility of guarding the Magus World against the invaders that would potentially want to invade the Magus World.
So, long short story, it was not worth it for soone like Leylin, who had far grander plans than to be reduced to the position of glorified guardian. While with that thod, one could obtain trendous power, but also, at an equally trendous cost.
'Even with Baator's Origin Force I can only wield the power my authority gives . Ultimately, it isn't mine and can be taken away at any ti.'
Leylin sighed, but for now, he knew that it was impossible to have such a world at his command. He saw that in the Kadath Universe, there existed a sort of people that were collectively terd as World Lords.
Each of them had ultimate control over so World and were able to absorb as much Origin Force as they wanted; thus, they were able to achieve frightening levels of power.
[Beep! Host is absorbing the Magus World's Origin Force, statistics rising…]
Leylin smiled after looking at the indicator on the A.I. Chip.
