Supremacy Games - Chapter 1866: Universal Contract.
‘No canceling powers, no abuse of laws, and no retreat.’ Lord Shiva narrowed his eyes, ‘This means you won’t be able to use your celestial black flames to deconstruct his abilities while he won’t use his finality-canceling powers.’
‘Who is in favor in this case?’ Candace wondered.
‘It’s hard to tell.’ Eris anwsered calmly as she watched with the tenants within Felix’s mind after he carried them with him, ‘Ares’ laws aren’t just capable of canceling abilities. They are compelling in standard fights as well and with specialized divinities involved, he might be at an unimaginable plane of strength.’
In other words, Ares wouldn’t be too affected by those rules as he already never intended to run away or abuse his laws.
It was a calculated price if removing his canceling powers was enough to keep Felix around and help him achieve his finality.
‘Still, Felix is also benefiting from this.’ Thor retorted, ‘He is already at the peak of unigins’ strength, matching Ares’ one hundred million BF. In addition, he is currently able to tap into the laws of heat, lightning, darkness/light, order/chaos/, seven sins, and let’s not forget Uranus’ various laws: gravity, vibration, anti-matter, and radiation.’
‘With such an arsenal of laws, he is more than capable of putting Ares in his place.’ He added, his tone spilling with unwavering confidence.
‘Do not underestimate Ares, he isn’t called the God of War for no reason.’ Eris knitted her eyebrows, ‘His previous death should not be used as a measure.’
It seemed like Felix had taken her advice.
“I am intrigued by your little deal, but how about we make it fairer?” Felix narrowed his eyes, “No use of divinities or celestial powers, and the battlefield will be outer space in a deserted part of the universe, not here.”
“Ohoo? How is that fair to me?” Ares replied, “You are taking away my divinities while putting me in a position where you can use your void realm’s territorial pressure.”
‘He got a point.’ Thor coughed, ‘Even if he is the strongest unigin in the universe, he is not foolish to put himself in such a position.’
The tenants agreed with him. They understood that unigins’ strength was on a different scale when they were situated in their domains.
Felix could easily take any unigin he wanted if they entered his void realm by purely using territorial pressure…The worst part? Only divinities could bypass such pressure.
If they were removed from the battle, then, he was putting Ares in a considerably unfavorable position.
“Isn’t the same for me?” Felix said calmly, “How can I battle you in your infinity dimension without using my celestial black flames to protect me from its effects?”
“Hmm, you have a point.” Ares rubbed his chin thoughtfully, “How about this? We can take this outside, but you are banned from attempting to bring me to your void realm or using your territorial pressure externally. Also, you can’t be assisted by your little helpers.”
Felix wasn’t too surprised by Ares knowing about Apollo and Eris.
He could try to hide them all he wanted, but Ares would still find out about them due to them being part of the samsara circle.
“As long as divinities are removed, I don’t care.” Felix nodded indifferently.
“Good, then it’s a deal.”
Ares’ smile grew wider as he got rid of his dimension with its infinite layers of protection. When the tenants saw this, most of them couldn’t help but feel weirded out.
‘How can they trust the other to keep his word?’ Candace titled her head in confusion, ‘If it was me, I wouldn’t hesitate to break the deal the moment I am put in a bad spot.’
‘Trust? Don’t be foolish little one.’ Eris shook her head, ‘A contract is a must for such a serious transaction.’
“By the authority vested in the Greed Law, I summon the Universe’s Contract.” Felix’s voice suddenly echoed through the void.
The symbol manifested between Felix and Ares, casting a green light across the infinite expanse of space.
“We shall bind ourselves by this contract,” Felix declared, “Under the terms set forth, neither of us shall break the conditions of this agreement. Should one of us violate these terms, they shall be punished by one hundred thousand chains.”
“Very well.” Ares intoned with a faint eager smirk, “Let the contract bind us.”
The moment he gave his blessing, the symbol pulsed with a brilliant light and sent tendrils of green energy extended from the symbol, wrapping around Felix and Ares, signifying their agreement.
Then, the symbol disappeared after the universe tightened those energy tendrils around them, making them respect the weight of the contract…Otherwise, they would be chained up by such a large number of celestial chains, that their lives could be said to be turned into hell for the next eons.
‘Unfortunately, the universe wouldn’t accept death as a punishment for a unigin.’ Apollo clicked his tongue, ‘There is still a chance of both sides choosing to break the contract rather than death.’
‘Wait, can’t my father break apart the contract?’ Nimo inquired with a hint of worry in his tone.
‘He might be the unigin of greed laws, but he can’t go against the authority of the universe.’ Eris anwsered, ‘Thus, once used, the terms have to be respected by both parties since it is considered a universal matter now.’
‘Wow, why hasn’t Felix been using such a symbol?’ Loki wondered, knowing that such a symbol would have helped Felix to be more diplomatic about many decisions.
‘The Universal Contract is a unique ability that can’t be used often since it involves the universe in our matters. It’s like forcing a supreme judge to handle a traffic ticket.’ Eris clarified, ‘Thus if he tried to use it often, it would border on abusing his laws.’
‘Ahh, I see.’
‘Makes sense.’
The tenants agreed in understanding.
“Follow me, I know a place.”
Meanwhile, Felix punched a hole in the spacetime reality, creating a shattered hole, leading to a chaotic dimension.
“Haha, lead the way.” Ares chuckled and entered the hole without an ounce of hesitation.
When the gap closed, Felix punched a new hole and jumped out of it with Ares close behind him.
“Is this where I think it is?” “Yes, the best battlefield for our battle.”
Felix nodded as his nonchalant eyes roamed across the infinite darkness surrounding them.
“The Great Nothingness,” Lord Shiva murmured, realizing that Felix picked the colossal region devoid of stars and galaxies due to his destruction.
“Who would have thought your crazy plan to destroy the universe would end up being used as a stage for the unigins’ battle,” Loki sniggered at such an ironic situation.
“Who would have thought indeed…” Lord Marduk mumbled as he watched Felix and Ares situating themselves for the battle.
Their sizes were still bigger than galaxies, yet it didn’t seem like they had any intentions of shrinking their bodies.
Suddenly, Felix reached out to the side and pulled forth a gleaming bronze weapon: Uranus’ divine bronze Scythe!
Felix had collected all the divine weapons of his slain unigins, causing him possess a small collection in his spatial ring.
While he favored a battle axe, he could still wield any weapon to near perfection.
“You can have the honor.” Ares permitted with a faint smirk.
Unbothered, Felix slashed the vacuum with a powerful swing, leading to the blade of the scythe to leave a trail of intense gravitational forces!
The slash solely stretched for thousands of lightyears, leading to the void to tremble unstably.
“Resonant Black Hole!” Felix intoned, his voice bearing the weight of the cosmos.
