Greed All For What Chapter 952

[ … words ]

An Emperor or Executioner has not been seen since the curse of the Warrogs by the fountain of life. The wood elves will be foolish to believe that one appeared here after many Origin cycles of absence and killed members of his own pack at the exact same time that a viscount is roaming around the mountain range with its fledglings. That is very suspicious. 

Besides, the representative of the fountain of life has not informed them of the appearance of an Emperor or Executioner. Such a thing cannot escape the notice of the fountain of life. The wood elves would have been notified of the existence of the Executioner just as they are notified of the existence of transcendent Warrogs.

This so-called Executioner can also cast spells. That is already enough for the wood elves to know that there is something fishy about this fictional Executioner. Since the fountain of life has not said anything, then all of these must be bogus without a doubt. So they laughed off the news of an Executioner and focused on the traces of the Vampires. 

—

The wood elves pursued the Vampires with a determination to eradicate every one of them. They have lost a lot of their members recently so they have a score to settle with this viscount that is causing trouble around. 

The chase also became very urgent. The representative of the fountain of life warned them to protect the Warrogs so that something like this wouldn’t happen. They failed and allowed the Vampires to engorge themselves on the blood of hundreds of thousands. Which means that they will be getting stronger and more difficult to deal with. 

So they sent lords of law and even kings of law after the Vampires. They are very serious about the hunt this time.

The vampire in question who is responsible for the atrocious acts against the Warrogs is still in slumber. Ragnarok’s bites weakened him more than normal. It will take more than a day before he can hijack a fledgling of his to resurrect. In the meantime, the three main forces that witnessed the atrocious event had different reactions to it.

The fountain of life didn’t do anything. It didn’t tell the wood elves about what it saw. It kept mute because the death of hundreds of thousands of its property doesn’t matter in the long run. It is just glad that Ragnarok didn’t fall into the hands of the Vampires. Besides, it has a lot of assets. The entire surface of the plane is its. It can trade in a few of them just to strengthen Ragnarok.

The will of the plane couldn’t do anything even if wanted to. It has done all it can do by selecting a protector. But it too gave a sigh of relief that Ragnarok is safe. It cares because it doesn’t want Ragnarok to fall into the grasp of the demon God and because it still has a use for Ragnarok. 

An Emperor is not complete without its Executioner and neither is an Executioner complete without an Emperor. Life and Death must become one to bring out their full power. So Ragnarok is still important to the will of the plane and it was relieved that he managed to get away. Only the demon God of Carnage is very bitter and anxious.

The demon God of Carnage’s sight is not as clear as the fountain of life’s and the will of the plane’s so it has to rely on what the Vampires saw to get a vivid image of the events that transpired that night. What it saw made it very excited and also very frustrated. 

“I can’t believe it. It is an Executioner in the flesh. What are the odds of finding him? I knew one should exist because of that Emperor but who would have thought that Xigger’s useless obsession would lead me to him? This is too good to be true. This is just too good to be true. I must get my hands on him. He must be welcomed into the fold of CARNAGE.” The demon God ranted to itself. 

“And the Carnage that he wrought. It was so beautiful. It is the most beautiful thing that I have seen on this deary plane. He is already so talented. Imagine what he can do once he is in the fold of CARNAGE? He will be glorious.”

“I must have him. He shall be mine. He will become a missionary for CARNAGE.”

If there is a word that the demon God of Carnage can use to describe Ragnarok, it is that he is “perfect.” Ragnarok is perfect simply for what he did that night. He killed his father, then he killed his pack leader. Then he visited destruction on his pack and even went further to massacre the Nameless of his pack. 

He did all of this without the emotional gripes and whining that Xigger would go through. He did it all without being compelled to. He did it even when he didn’t need to. He did it simply because he wanted to. To the demon God of Carnage, voluntary Carnage is the most beautiful form of art.

The demon God wants Ragnarok for more important reasons than his beautiful works of art. The will of the plane has found itself a champion. In the demon god’s opinion, the will of the plane made a very good decision. They know that the Warrogs have more potential than the wood elves. The original tree people didn’t have any divine ability. Their current divine ability was given to them by the fountain of life. 

In a way, the fountain of life is the ancestor of the wood and dark elves. The tree people were supposed to lose the ancient world wars but the fountain of life chose them for its blessing. It chose the tree people for the same reason that the demon God is after the tree elves. They were highly compatible. So they were blessed. The blessing turned ordinary plant spirits into a divine race.
