Supremacy Games

1949  Celestials, Unigins, Primogenitors.

As usual, Felix preferred to move first and correct later, knowing that without much information, he would be stuck in an overthinking spiral.

"Seven celestial hearts, can you give me examples of semi-celestial beings that are lower in spiritual pressure than the celestials, but powerful enough to pose some threat to them?"

Felix didn't bother tasking his brain over this, letting the professionals do their work.

As expected, the seven celestial hearts showed Felix quite a few examples of semi-celestials.

"Reality Benders...Possessing the powers of the Stone of Reality to bend reality to their desired will." Felix murmured in awe, "That's a bit much."

He knew that entities with such powers were too versatile and slippery. After all, how could one deal with someone capable of altering reality itself? Not even the three celestials possess such powers.

Felix moved to the next race, reading its details out loud.

"Elemental Nobles...They possess complete control over all elements under the authority of the Elemental Heart."

Felix held his chin thoughtfully, not moved by this race.

"Their powers are too similar to the three celestials, which means they will be on the losing side almost always."

Felix understood that a race created from a celestial heart would never be able to steal control from the personification of a celestial heart.

"I need a race with complete authority over their powers, even the three celestials would struggle to steal it from them," Felix added.

The seven celestials have immediately delivered, creating a whole new race.

"Guardians and Lords of the Laws. Each guardian possesses complete control over a set of laws under the authority of the Origin of Laws Heart...This is it!"

Once Felix began reading their details, his eyes lit up brighter and brighter, seeing his vision finally come to light.

He knew the difference between laws and elements was vast. While the three celestials were based on the celestial languages capable of reading and communicating with laws/elements, they couldn't really develop laws from scratch!

In other words, A fire-based semi-celestial would have more authority over fire than any of the three celestials!

"While one guardian can't do much, I am certain a whole race of them will make the three celestials rethink their moves. Most importantly..." Felix added, "I can see myself interacting with them, unlike the reality benders."

While reality benders sounded more powerful, Felix hadn't forgotten that his mission was to integrate with the seven celestial hearts, not just develop what's more powerful.

In the case of the law guardians, he could sense a link, something that would bring him to their level, even if he had no clue about it.

It was purely instinct, and at that moment, it was all Felix had.

Without further ado, Felix requested the creation of the law guardians. Not wanting to bother himself with the details, he told them to continue utilizing his planet's mythical lore, knowing that it was extremely rich.

The seven celestials got busy and began creating one law guardian after another, seemingly being the one deciding on the laws each one governed.

Spiritual figures started popping up in front of Felix rapidly, each figure was different than the other...Their only similar aspect was the spherical cores revolving in their chest, each one emitting a different aura.

"Ares, Kronos, Athena, Artemis, Aeolus, Poseidon, Zeus, Eris, Hades, Hephaestus, Apollo, Uranus...I see you have put heavily in the Old Olympian gods." Felix chuckled to himself, "I don't know about the lore though, the structure is kinda messed up."

Felix knew that if a historian from his home planet were to see the soup he had just created, he would beat him to death.

In what universe was Khaos a mere elemental guardian while the law guardians were based on Olympian gods?

"This might be for the best." Felix murmured, "This knitted ball of chaotic identities will be my reminder; a reminder that such foolish imperfection was man-made..."

Felix knew that hundreds of attempts awaited him and he hoped that such imperfection might be his savior...

Just like in the movie Inception, unique totems were a must to discern between reality and a dream.

In Felix's case, it was even worse as he had to discern between two realities...He hoped that if one day he left the universe and started to have doubts about what was real and what was fake, this little imperfection would help him wake up to his reality.

"Now, I have created celestials, Law Guardians, and Elemental Guardians...I should probably go all the way and give the other two names too."

Felix thought about it for a few minutes and then, he wrote two names on the modifications list.

"Primogenitors and Unigins..." He murmured the names as he stepped back.

He had chosen Primogenitors for elemental guardians since they were the ancestors of a significant amount of species.

As for Unigins? He combined universe with origin since the Law Guardians' authority was based on The Origin of Law Heart, and their birth was from the Universe's heart.

It was like a child from two celestial hearts and Felix simply took their first names.

"I think this should be all, let's see how it goes..."

With a deep breath, Felix commenced the trial, not caring about taking a break from his previous failure at all.

Unfortunately, he wasn't even born in the new universe to experience his new modifications.

In less than an hour, the trial ended and Felix was reconstructed to the sight of the seven celestial hearts, awaiting requests for the next attempt.

"The hell has just happened?" Felix was left baffled after checking the time.

"The universe was destroyed, chances of the candidate's birth is 0%...The trial concluded."

"..."

Felix went silent, realizing that he might have underestimated the explosive dynamic between the celestials and the unigins.

The fact that he had returned in one hour implied that not even fifty million years had gone by before the universe was destroyed.

"The three celestials can't leave the sealed dimension, but I haven't banned the unigins." Felix wondered, "Did this destruction arise between the unigins in the matter universe or was it related to the celestials?"

Felix wasn't given many details and he knew the seven celestials wouldn't answer him.

"They proved to be quite the variables, but this is too much." Felix reworked his plan, "I have given them full reign to abuse their laws and I am certain it played a massive role in the universe's destruction."

The first thing he did was add the unigins to the watch list with the three celestials. This would guarantee that if they went overboard with their laws or tried to abuse them to harm others, the punishment would be quite severe.

"This will limit their strength greatly compared to the three celestials though." Felix scratched his chin, "Well, this might be for the best."

Felix remembered that he had created the unigins to keep the celestials in check, not to start a war. In other words, their presence should be just enough to make the celestials wonder if it was worth it dealing with them.

But at the same time, not give the unigins enough strength to make them search to antagonize the three celestials.

A balance must be created.

"If I added infinite revival through the universe's heart, I am sure the three celestials would think twice about killing them...Especially, if birth consumes a significant amount of celestial energy."

While all of this sounded good and dandy, Felix still felt like the unigins had too much freedom and not quite any purpose...This was a very, very dangerous combo for such beings.

"Should I add them to the original ploy? If I made them search out the truth of this universe and their birth, I believe the majority of them would join hands with the three celestials."

Felix began plotting again, realizing that the three celestials wouldn't hesitate to unite with the unigins if the tablet suggested it.

After all, they would be receiving extra help and most importantly, they would keep their enemies nearby. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

As for the unigins? They would be given a united purpose. Even if a few unigins refused to partake in the plan, Felix understood that as long as the majority decided, peace and balance would fester.

Without further ado, Felix added the new modifications and commenced with the trials.
