Supremacy Games - Chapter 1857: The Seventh Ascenion!

“God, huh?” Felix smiled wryly.

He never had any desire to be one, he just wanted to live a happy and peaceful life with his loved ones. But alas, he was destined for hardships before he was even born…

Felix shook his head and refocused on the task at hand…He scrolled through his logical fabric until he reached the rule that specified his inability to maintain a spiritual connection with a core after disengaging with it.

Without further ado, he started to rewrite the entire sentence to break this rule into something that benefited him.

“Damn, the universe is blocking me.”

Felix knitted his eyebrows in focus as he felt an immense amount of resistance on his fingers, a stubborn force that sought to maintain the natural order.

But, Felix anticipated this much and started feeding celestial energy into his fingers empowering them to push against the resistance.

With the help of celestial energy, his fingers shimmered brightly as they started to rewrite letter by letter.

This made him resemble a teacher writing on a board with a resistance band in his hand, pulling him to the other side.

“If it’s this difficult to change just one rule about himself, I can’t imagine how much it will take to mess with the three rulers.” Elder Kraken frowned.

“The universe is always kinder to others,” Eris said calmly.

In simpler terms, the universe always doubled down on its resistance if it noticed one of its celestial powers being used on others.

That’s why Felix’s wishes were cheaper if he used them on himself than others.

After a great deal of struggle and a significant amount of celestial energy burned, Felix finally managed to make the stone of reality respond to his wishes.

Ka-thumb!

The Stone of Reality thumbed, its glow intensifying as Felix’s intentions took shape, accommodating the rule to his will.

Suddenly, Felix felt the connection between his soul and his cores solidify, a permanent bond that defied the previous constraints.

The universe itself seemed to hum with approval as the new rule settled into place, the fabric of logic now altered to recognize his unique state.

Felix opened his eyes, having a wide satisfied smile on his face.

“Let’s test it out.”

He summoned Poseudon’s core, which was sent back with his clone, and held it in his hand. Then, he placed it in the Stone of Reality.

Instead of the familiar sensation of disconnection, he felt an unbroken flow of energy, his soul seamlessly linked to the core even as it was stored away!

“It worked.” Candace raised an eyebrow in surprise, “Doesn’t this mean you are capable of using the core’s laws even without having it integrate with your hearts?”

“It should theoretically work with some limitation.”

Felix demonstrated it by creating a dagger made out of his blood even though Posedion’s core was stored away.

“It’s like what happened with Lilith, Nimo, and his alter ego.” Lady Sphinx expressed, “Lilith was able to use the full powers of her laws while the alter ego and Nimo could use only a limited version.”

“Exactly.” Felix nodded.

“Can’t you get rid of the limitations?” Thor inquired.

“I can, but the cost will be far too much for me to handle. I might even break my balance, ruining my entire being.”

While Felix could mess up with the universe’s rules to help himself, he understood that it had to be done in moderation.

After all, the universe respected balance and logic above all. If he went and began screwing up with his logical fabric, he would fall off from the universe’s reality parameters.

“The universe wouldn’t hesitate to make a big correction to restore its balance even if it meant eliminating me in the process.” He added with a solemn tone.

“I see, I guess there are limitations after all.”

“The only time he won’t have any limitation will be when he merges with his seven celestial hearts.” Eris shared calmly, “At that point in time, he will be officially considered as the universe and nothing will be there to command or limit him.”

“That’s still too far off.” Felix’s smile turned creepy as he faced Apollo, “For now, It’s time to get rid of this little grimling.”

Apollo’s darkside experienced chills course down his spine while his light side had a beaming smile like he was about to get rid of a cancerous tumor at last.

“Take him away, brother!”

Apollo leaped in front of Felix and landed on his back, lying on the ground akin to a corpse in a coffin…He had one eye closed and the other open while his mouth was crooked into a smile and a frown.

He was the definition of a bipolar disorder.

“I only need to ascend with your core, I don’t need you to be close to me…Stand up already.” Felix’s eyelids twitched as he kicked him in the waist.

Then, he walked away and sat in a mediation position. He focused on Apollo’s core and pulled it out of the stone of reality…Since Poseidon’s core was already in the stone, it liberated up the space for another core.

Of course, it would be nearly impossible to ascend without a dragonic tail added to the mix since Felix’s soul was already interconnected with the other seven cores.

The rule change merely made it possible for the cores to be stored without the universe considering them as hostless cores and trying to find new owners for them.

As for the dragonic clone with the rest of the cores in the void realm? It was using ascended cores, which meant they would always be connected to Felix.

The moment a core gets stored inside a celestial heart, it loses connection to the owner, which was the reason Felix could snatch the unigins’ cores with Asna’s core.

“To be honest, I still don’t understand why it forcefully cut off his soul when he is storing it inside his own main heart,” Candace murmured as she watched Felix commence the new ascension under the despairing cries of Apollo’s darkside.

“It doesn’t cut it off when he stores it exactly.” Lady Sphinx explained for her, “It will cut it off if he tries to ascend with a new core since the old one will have no place in his body.”

“But, with the new change in the rule, even without being considered as a ‘heart’, the soul connection is still there, which is the most important aspect.”

“Ahh, I see.” Candace agreed in understanding.

…

After a short while, Felix had concluded the ascension, linking Apollo’s core with his dragonic tail and the freed-up slot…It went smoothly as always while his appearence remained the same.

His celestial appearence was too dominating, a mere unigin ascension wouldn’t affect it in the slightest.

“It’s done, now I command both light and darkness.” Felix grinned in satisfaction as manifested a light sphere and a dark sphere in both of his palms.

“Congratulations.”

“You are getting closer and closer to collecting all the cores.”

“Now that it proved to work, you can most definitely ascend with the rest of the cores since you still have six more dragonic tails.”

Lady Sphinx and the rest of the tenants commemorated with him, knowing that each ascension was important in the bigger picture.

“I might have six more dragonic tails, but two hearts are taken permanently,” Felix mentioned.

“The stone of reality and your human heart.” Lady Sphinx said.
