GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?

Chapter 1052 Useless Words.

He isn't too concerned about the threat of the fountain of life. It has not changed anything because he has always considered the fountain of life and the demon god to be threats to his life. It is because they are stronger than him. That wouldn't change even if he tried to please them. So he might as well do whatever he wants if he is going to die.

He asked playfully, "Are you really the fountain of life? I am shocked that you would threaten me for doing a good thing. You should be glad that I'm trying to get rid of the Vampires. Why are you antagonizing me? You should know that some good people will suffer in order for the evil people to be eradicated. It is just a small sacrifice to save the plane. Think of the greater good and help me instead."

The fountain of life didn't agree with him. It said one last thing. "Run and keep running."

Then it cut off the connection between them.

"That's just rude," Ragnarok said with a slight smile.

Then he shrugged. "What's one more enemy that already tried to kill me before? Does it even count as a new enemy?"

He resumed his journey. Unfortunately, he didn't get far before another person decided to speak with him without his consent. He just sighed and listened. He has no choice after all.

A phantom of a yellow fox with nine tails appeared beside him. It said, "Ragnarok, I want to apologize for bringing the wood elves to you. I was fooled and..."

"Do you have something you want to ask me? If you do just get on with it and let's be done." Ragnarok interrupted and demanded rather rudely.

Emperor Rinoz held in her retort. "I understand why you don't think favorably of me. I want to say that I am on your side. The Will of the plane wants me to thank you for what you are about to do. If you survive this, you can always count on me and the Will of the plane for help."

"Thanks for offering but I don't need your help. I am self-sufficient. I have all the help that I need."

He rejected her goodwill immediately. He can be cordial with her if he is in a good mood but he can't accept any help from her. She is stupid, ignorant, and unreliable. She is a burden because of those characteristics despite the power that she wields.

Besides, he is self-sufficient. He is Legion and Legion is with him. He has all the help he needs and he can trust Legion. He has a supply of soul force and the domain of an Origin god from Legion-1. That has helped him a lot.

That isn't the only thing that he has from Legion. He has a supply of origin energy from Legion-2 which he is using to activate his divine ability and to grow. He has a supply of divine life energy from Legion-9 which he can use for quick healing. He also has the supply of Cosmic energy from Legion-4 which he doesn't know how to use yet.

Legion is not complete yet. It isn't perfect and completely self-sufficient yet. It still has a long way to go. For now, he has unconditional support and complete trust in them. That already trumps whatever Rinoz can deliver.

Rinoz hasn't helped him at all. She tried to enslave him and she brought Origin gods to him. She is an incapable and ignorant person who he can't trust. She is the complete opposite of Legion.

She is just a puppet in the struggle for the plane. If he needs her power, then he will just take it. He doesn't need her to give it to him. It is better for him to have her power since he can trust himself.

This resolution made Ragnarok think to himself, "If I survive this, I should plan to kill her."

Then he asked her impatiently, "Is that all?"

"I misjudged you. You are a true hero. You have done more good for the plane than I ever did and you are about to do more. I just wish that you wouldn't do this alone. It is not a weakness to ask for help." She insisted.

He thought inwardly. "What a useless child of the plane."

What she said is true. He has done more good for the plane than her. He has killed more Vampires and more Primogenitors. His Primogenitor kill count is one but it is still better than hers and he has killed millions of Vampires. What he is about to do might also liberate the plane. It makes Rinoz more of a stupid figurehead than an actual Emperor.

He thought of something so he asked her. "Actually, I need help with something. Can you grant me a way out of the plane?"

"There's no way to escape." She said to him.

He asked. "What about the planar portal?"

His question made her agitated. "Don't go there. That's a dead end. The strongest Vampire guides the planar portal. His name is Drastoic. He is undefeated even in the day."

"Then what use are you to me?" He asked in irritation. "You're just buzzing in my ear like some fly that I can't swat. You offer me nothing but useless words. Even the demon god was more helpful than this. At least it could tell me important information."

"I can offer you power. I can even share part of my power with you. You just have to submit..."

"Shut up." He shouted at her. "Just shut up and leave me alone."

He received the silence that he asked for immediately. The phantom fox disappeared from his vision and left with Rinoz's annoying voice.

His eyes glinted sharply. He thought to himself, "It seems I haven't made enough enemies yet. I should add one more when I get the chance. I kill this Rinoz if only for the power that I will gain from her."
