Soverick's four blind white eyes focused on the entity at last but the entity felt shocked instead of happiness. Then after the shock came fear. Its eyes widened in full-blown fear. Then it turned around and transformed into its lightning form. It shot away from Soverick as fast as it could. It was fleeing. Something told it that it had better retreat or it will regret it.

Soverick sneered. There's no escaping now that he has his attention on this entity and he has some use for it. His divine sense began to solidify. It formed into a golden hand that grabbed toward the fleeing entity. The golden hand slapped the lightning bolt down from the sky to the ground as one will swat at a fly.

The entity fell to the ground again. The sound of the collision between the hand and the entity proves that the swatting is not as simple as that of swatting a fly. The entity just looks like a fly compared to the size of the golden hand. Then the golden hand held tightly unto its prey and brought it to Soverick.

The entity struggled but it couldn't get out. The golden hand is too strong and its grip is too tight. It is also resistant to lightning so it held on despite the entity's attempts to disperse it with lightning. The entity tried to turn into its lightning form but it couldn't. The divine sense of the arm disrupted its transmission. So it started shouting at Soverick.

"Let me go Soverick. What do you want with me?"

"Do you want me to beg you? I'll never beg you."

"If you're so strong you will let me go and allow me to attack you again this instant."

"Let it not be said that the child of the plane is afraid of a simple transcendent."

Soverick ignored the show of false bravado and the taunts. He said to the air. "Come Hadrick. Let's test my artifact."

A vine popped out from the ground that they are standing on. Hadrick can now come out from beneath the city to the city proper without fear of lightning. The defense of the entire city has been reinforced to prevent the tribulation. It is one of the favors that was granted to Ancestor Ghastorix by the racial council for his part to play in raising Soverick.

Ancestor Ghastorix played no actual part but he still got rewarded because Soverick belongs to his family. The Ghastorix family is a law-abiding and recognized family of the Virut plane so the racial council is rewarding them for their contribution to the plane. At least that's the public reason that they gave but Soverick suspects that there might be more at play.

Hadrick asked Soverick. "Are you sure we should use him? It is dangerous and your artifact might not work. It can injure him."

"I told you that it will work. And if it injures him, then so be it. It is a price I am willing to pay."

Hadrick sighed when he heard that. Now it is feeling regret for telling the security not to interfere when this entity began to fight with Soverick in the city. It knew it will end badly but it didn't think it will be this bad.

It likes the entity and it didn't want it to get into trouble with security. That's why it told the family security to back off. It should just have allowed the security forces to interfere with the fight before Soverick decided to use the entity as a test object and he is talking as if any damage the entity incurs is a sacrifice he is willing to make. As if he is the one that is going to suffer.

The entity became exhilarated when he noticed the vine. It cried out to Hadrick, "Please help me ancestor Hadrick. Soverick is a maniac. Save me from him. Please save me."

Hadrick didn't know what to say. The imploring words of this entity only made it feel bad because it knows that Soverick has made up his mind and almost nothing can change his mind. Something like this happened in the past and it didn't end well for those involved too.

Soverick was being challenged left and right by the youths of the plane after he became the child of the plane. A lot of people didn't think he deserved it or that he is worthy of the power and prestige. Most of them were mana entities that weren't able to participate in the divine dungeon because of the limit on it. Others just wanted to test themselves against the best of the best. But Soverick didn't entertain any one of them. He ignored everyone.

The line of those that wanted to fight with him only increased when he became a transcendent. But he ignored them no matter who they are or what background they have. He only fought those he was interested in like the talented children of sages. He ignored everyone else.

Surely he has the right to accept or deny any challenge. If no one does, the child of the plane should have that right and he is the child of the plane. He wanted peace and quiet but some people were bent on not giving him what he wants.

It was then that a rumor started to go around that whoever kills Soverick will be able to take his title and become the next child of the plane. The plane went wild. They were mildly interested in him before. That mild interest turned into an insistent demand for him now that they think that they can take his title.

People came from far and wide to challenge him. They camped outside the Ghastorix main city because they were refused entry. Still, Soverick ignored them. The increase in the wish of the people to fight him doesn't mean he will fight them. Anyone can do anything, they want to fight him so they came to fight him. He doesn't want to fight them so he won't fight them.
