GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1031 Here Comes The Man Of The Hour.

The consequences of his action are certainly a big problem for the Vampires. But the person that caused it is not nearly as big a problem. He is around the strength of a new origin god so he isn't that dangerous. 

But there are others who believe that he should not be excused because he is a weak threat. They believe he is too strange to be spared. They believe so because there are a lot of things they don't know about him and what they do know about him is unsettling. 

First, he broke off his connection with the demon god. They as primogenitors know how difficult it is to achieve that. It is not even possible by their knowledge. Or in this case, it isn't supposed to be possible. 

Then he took the heart of Carnage and used it to become some kind of Vampire without a connection to the demon god. He should be here in the mentalscape of the Supreme just like them but he is not. There ought to be 32 Primogenitors here. But Xigger is no more and his replacement has shuned them. 

He practically stole from the demon god. Then he used an origin god domain. All of these things are mind-boggling. They are very curious about it. You would expect the entity that was stolen from to be incensed. But the Supreme is only amused. 

The primogenitors are then arguing about what to do because the demon god hasn't given them an explicit order about what should be done about Ragnarok. Most of them are for killing Ragnarok. 

lightsΝοvel The opinion to eliminate Ragnarok is not purely because he is an unknown threat. They never liked him and his lineage before. He has also offended them by helping the wood elves take over the devil's pit. This is after they all sacrificed numerous familiars and subordinates from their lineages to protect him. 

They never liked Ragnarok in the first place. He is the successor of the lineage of the devourer. That is already enough reason to kill him. They don't like him more now that he repaid their kindness with evil.

Others like Marlinto don't think that drastic measures should be taken against him. Ragnarok is clearly an interesting entity. Marlinto believes that it is not too late for Ragnarok to join the dark side. The two sides argued amongst themselves while some had no opinion of the matter and chose to watch.

Marlinto insisted with a tone of finality, "I don't care about what you all think. It doesn't matter how much of a threat you think he is. The demon god hasn't said anything about him so we can't kill him."

"You are wrong about that. The demon god didn't say anything about him. That means we can do anything to him. Anything, including killing him."

Someone interjected. "How about we just capture him?"

It was Drastoic who spoke. He is the physically strongest Primogenitor. He and Secula, the most skillful and focused, and some others have been quiet in the meeting. They chose to watch and see. But Drastoic grew tired of waiting. So he suggested a middle ground. 

"No."

"No."

The two sides rejected his suggestion immediately. Capturing Ragnarok is a compromise that neither side is willing to take. They will be able to monitor him closely and also get some information from him if they capture him. But it is not what either side wants. 

One side wants to kill Ragnarok immediately while the other side wants to convince Ragnarok to join them. Capturing him will not help them in convincing him to help them kill his Emperor and destroy the resistance of the wood elves. It also won't alleviate the hatred of those who want to kill him. Compromising won't work. Those that want to kill Ragnarok might torture him which will make him look at the dark side even more unfavorably.

Marlinto suddenly began to laugh. His outburst drew everyone's attention. He said, "My forces have sighted this Ragnarok. It seems he has stumbled into my territory. I will meet him and speak with him. This is an opportunity to make him join us."

Drastoic nodded while Secula remained silent. The others stopped talking so the argument died down immediately. There is no use arguing anymore. Marlinto will do anything he wants. So they chose to watch. Marlinto opened up his senses to the others so they could see what he saw and hear what he heard.

They saw Ragnarok enter Marlinto's domain. He drilled a tunnel through the earth into a large empty space. This space is kilometers wide and tall. It is large enough to contain a city, which it does. There is a large castle at the center of the Cavern with walls reinforced with metal and stone. The defenses didn't stop Ragnarok from gaining access to this city. But it did alert the inhabitants of the city to the intruder.

Ragnarok drilled through the top of the Cavern. He appeared just above the castle at the center of the city. He flew down with otherworldly grace. His white smooth skin reflected the gentle artificial light to make him look extra handsome. Even the deep and glowing reddish scar that marred his flesh only made him look compelling. 

His red hair waved behind him as he levitated slowly toward the castle. He stopped when he sighted his target. Monarch Marlinto flew up with his hands spread wide to welcome him. Marlinto is also smiling. His regal robe of white and purple ruffled light around him. The red halo on his head produced light that showed a very handsome black complexioned face.

"Welcome to my domain, Ragnarok," Marlinto said with open arms.

He is genuinely happy to see Ragnarok.

"I am glad to be here," Ragnarok replied.

He too is genuinely happy to see Marlinto.

Marlinto smiled. He asked, "What has brought you to my humble abode?"

"I have two missions. I was hoping to speak directly to the demon god first. I want to request something from it."
