He knew he still had an advantage in his perception but he didn't know how much. Now he knows the limit of what he can accomplish.
Next is the new LIMITER stat. The limit on his body is like a safety lock placed there by his subconscious to protect his body. It will limit how much of his physical capabilities he can use. He can remove it, but there hasn't been a reason to. Then there's the limit on his soul power which he placed there by himself so that his body won't explode. That's why his spirit stat is just at the limit of his stage.
His body might have a limit on how much of his soul power it can handle but it cannot inhibit its inherent calculating and sensing abilities. That's why his perception is still high. The radius of his divine sense has been reduced to 20 units because of that limit but nothing can escape his notice within this small sphere of influence. His sensing abilities might not rival an origin god but no sovereign can compare to it.
While he hated the sight of the status screen, he must admit that the information it provides will be a great help in keeping track of his growth.
'Too bad I'm not the only one tracking my growth.' He grumbled.
It is just a sore thing that the realm lord will also be able to keep track of his growth.
What the realm lord does with the information is unknown to him currently but he knows that the realm lord will not be able to harm him with it.
He stopped thinking about that currently unsolvable issue and began to plan his future growth. The thought of his current potential filled him with anticipation. He knew he would become even stronger than when he was a sovereign. Some things are lacking in his current life as compared to his former one as a High Elf, but all in all, he has a greater potential. He was lacking in the physical aspect as a sovereign of law, but his spiritual prowess was astounding. He may have lost the assistance of the laws he comprehended but he will do better still. He aims to build upon his current potential and shore up all of his weaknesses. The first step on that agenda is to attend the training academy. It will help him fix the problem of poor physical capabilities.
He acknowledges that he has subpar close combat fighting ability because he focused on the power of his mind in his past life. Even though close combat skill becomes an instinct for an Origin god, he needs to shore up his knowledge in that aspect because he is not an Origin god anymore. The battle sage monkeys are a warrior race at their core, it is what they focus on. High Elves on the other hand have an advantage in using their minds and in the creation of spells due to their high mana affinity, so they focus on it. He doesn't have his High Mana affinity anymore. Battle sage have an advantage in close combat fighting because of their divine ability. It allows them to possess an absurd control of their bodies due to their gift of spatial awareness. So they will be the best teachers for him.
He also intends to focus on close combat fighting because of his divine ability. He has already mastered the use of spells anyway, so there is no use wasting time on that.
He unlocked his door and went straight for the living room. He intends to inform them of his progress so that he can start his next phase of training immediately.
Mihila and Ghoto will probably be there cuddling if they are available. They have been doing that recently like some love-sick idiots. Ghoto still has the potential to grow unlike Mihila, but he isn't training as much because he wants to spend time with his partner. He can afford to waste this much time because of his long lifespan. Soverick isn't as old as them and yet he is rushing to accomplish greater things. It's another difference between him and normal people. They aim to achieve eternity at most and they believe they have the time for it. He knows that reaching eternity isn't the end of things.
Another thing he got from the tower of heaven is information from the realm library. One of which is that the universe has already spent more than two-thirds of its conservative lifespan. Becoming an Origin god might be able to ensure survival but you won't be able to join in the distribution of spoils when the universe ends. He doesn't plan to be an onlooker when that happens. He might not know what the spoils are exactly but he knows with utmost certainty that the realm lord knows. He just has to follow in the steps of the realm lord and he will come across it too. But he has to be strong enough to catch up to the realm lord.
He knows a lot of things but he wouldn't breathe a word of it to anyone. Apart from the fact that talking about it to anyone will make the realm lord aware of it and his plans, he is a selfish person. If he has his way he would like to keep all the spoils for himself, so why will he help more people have a share in it? The fewer people know about it, the better. And yes, he is willing to sacrifice anybody to make it happen. Anybody.
The realm lord is the most impressive person he knows and if such a person still cannot have his way with the universe or seat at the highest table of it, then Legion must be ready to overtake even the realm lord. Nothing less will be good enough. No one is too much to be sacrificed for that purpose. Even Soverick is willing to be sacrificed for the greater good of Legion.
'The realm lord was able to become a Sovereign in less than an origin cycle, the same amount of time it takes some people to become transcendent. Then he became an Origin god in two cycles by completing a requirement meant for Origin gods and he was crowned realm lord for it.'
Many people knew how impressive these achievements are, but the knowledge he acquired helped him understand that it is near impossible to be replicated. But if one person cannot do it, what about nine? That's what Legion is. The strength of the many for the purpose of the one. That's why he must face the immense difficulty of his divine ability, overcome it or die trying. Anything less than record-breaking is not good enough.
He reached the central room and walked in to find Ghoto scowling.
'At least they are not cuddling. Everyone wants different things. They might be entitled to having their wishes but if those wishes are right or wrong is another matter.' Soverick thought to himself.
Mihila has given up on going forward because of the daunting task she needs to overcome. It is a wise choice considering her chances of success. Ghoto on the other hand still has a chance but he is discouraged because of the prospect of losing his wife. In Soverick's opinion, love has made Ghoto stupid. But Soverick understands that that is just his perspective on the matter and he might be wrong too.
His parents may be content with spending their time together instead of spending their time growing stronger. It is their choice and they will probably still be content with it if they know that the world is ending soon. That is their choice and that is why they are of different worlds. It is a good thing too because they won't chase the same thing as him and end up being his enemies. It is a good thing for them. It doesn't affect Soverick either way.
He ignored the heavy atmosphere and preceded to announce his business. Whatever was bordering Ghoto didn't bother him in the slightest. Actually, whatever is bordering Ghoto is beneath him. He isn't humble enough to think otherwise or care. So he created a mind link with his divine sense and sent it toward Mihila and Ghoto.
"I have broken through." He transmitted it to them after they accepted the mind connection.
"That's nice." Mihila smiled and responded mentally. Then she chided the sulking man child. "Did you even hear what he said? Be happy for your son, Ghoto."
"Good, that's good." Ghoto replied absentmindedly.
"Don't mind your father, he is distraught by a matter, he is proud of you." Mihila was getting ready to fill up for the usually eager father figure when she realized something. It's a good thing that she stopped whatever she wanted to say because Soverick doesn't care if they are proud of him or not.
