Kyle focused on the Law of Minor Light with renewed conviction. As time started passing, the pain the Sin Flames gave him started to feel different.
The world still deemed him an irredeemable sinner, but that didn't matter. Kyle had done the right thing. He had helped all of these people, and they were eternally grateful to him.
In a way, the pain of the Sin Flames just seemed like an affirmation that Kyle had done the right thing.
As Kyle's heart and mind became one, he found that the concepts of the Law of Minor Light came more easily to him. He was not just comprehending this Law for himself but also for all the people in Ayuvar. He actually felt like he had something he was fighting for that wasn't just his self-interest.
Time passed, and once more, Kyle wasn't disturbed during his comprehension.
BOOOOM!
Understanding filled his mind as the Law of Minor Light materialized in his mind.
'As expected, the Law of Minor Light was harder to comprehend than the other ones, but it also didn't take as long as I had anticipated. I thought I would need around 500 years, but I only needed around 450 years.'
'There's only one Law to go, and I will be done with all of the Minor Elemental Laws.'
Kyle stood up and left the platform without selling it. Whoever got it first would save a bunch of Merits.
Kyle flew to the Law Well for the Law of Minor Darkness. This Law Well was connected to the Law Well for Minor Light, with both of them sending Energy back and forth to keep the cycle going. Matter-increasing Energy flowed to the other Law Well, which sent back matter-decreasing Energy.
As soon as Kyle arrived, he got another offer from somebody. This time, it was another member of the Tribes.
"The Julens Family stands behind you, Black Sin Hammer 37," the Tribe Member transmitted.
"I will remember this," Kyle transmitted as he entered the pit.
By now, four Families of the Tribes had already declared their support for Kyle. It seemed like word was going around that Kyle had a True Sin Aura.
Kyle focused on the Law of Minor Darkness, and the insights came to him rapidly. Since he already knew the Law of Minor Light, he could infer how many concepts of the Law of Minor Darkness worked. He hadn't had a good reference point for the Law of Minor Light, but he had one for the Law of Minor Darkness now.
Once more, Kyle wasn't disturbed during his period of comprehension.
BOOOOM!
Kyle's mind was filled with understanding as he comprehended the Law of Minor Darkness. Since he had a reference point, he only needed 350 years to condense it.
As he looked around, he realized that he knew how almost everything worked.
The ground and the mountains existed due to the Law of Minor Earth.
The waters and the rains existed due to the Law of Minor Water.
The metallic walls, ores, and tools existed due to the Law of Minor Metal.
The heat and the fire existed due to the Law of Minor Fire.
The air and wind were subject to the Law of Minor Wind.
The electricity and even small components of life contained the Law of Minor Lightning.
Light and Darkness existed as well, and their matter-manipulating properties were also subtly influencing all the Elements.
The living beings were governed by the four Laws of Aspects. Even a harmless animal had all four Laws inside of it. Animals had simple minds, a simple Soul, a bit of stored Energy, and an uncomplicated body. Beasts were a bit more complex, but only a bit in the stored Energy department and quite a bit more complex in the body department. Their Souls and minds were not much more complicated.
Kyle looked around and saw the Space, Time, and Gravity Energies influencing the world. He didn't know everything about them, but he already knew a lot.
Kyle left the Law Well and stopped in the air as he held out his hand.
He closed his eyes and focused on the Elements.
A small bit of all of the Elements appeared in his hands before they started to transform. They fused together and changed in a myriad of ways. The color of the amalgamation changed as small bones appeared, which formed a skeleton. Red mud changed into organs and veins as blood filled them.
Fire created warmth, and the wind flowed through the body, filling it with the valuable air it needed. With a tiny bolt of lightning, the brain started to become active, and in the next moment, it opened its eyes, looking around.
It was an inquisitive weasel, which just looked at Kyle in confusion
Kyle just smiled at it.
"Argh," Kyle uttered with gritted teeth as he held his head with his free hand. He had just felt a sudden stinging pain, which had felt even stronger than the Sin Flames. Luckily, the pain had only existed for a short moment before it dissipated again.
At the same time, Kyle noticed a humongous wave of red washing over his body before it dissipated as well.
BANG!
The weasel in front of Kyle exploded, and its existence turned back into Neutral Energy.
For a moment, Kyle just looked at the spot in which the weasel had been.
'This is a taboo, huh?' Kyle thought. 'I guess this was a warning.'
'Do not create artificial life'
'No wonder there are no human farms that grow future soldiers in Ayuvar. As long as you know the Laws of Aspects and the Law of Minor Elements, you have all the ingredients to create complex life. A single Spirit Lord could probably create thousands of humans with a perfect mindset for a soldier within a second. I'm definitely not the only one who knows all of these Laws.'
'I've also never heard of anyone in the Supreme World creating artificial life. I guess this is the reason. The world rejects artificial life and punishes the being that created the artificial life.'
'I wonder, is this a moral or a safety thing? Is the God just against anyone creating artificial life, or does this rule exist to protect the Cosmos? Technically, the Cult could create an army of artificial soldiers, who are part Energy and part Death.'
Kyle imagined a world in which both sides of a war were allowed to create artificial life.
'For once, I actually agree with the rules of the Cosmos. Such a world would be too dark and depressing. Creating a human is simply too easy from the viewpoint of a powerful Seeker. If there were more ethereal Laws involved, similar to the Law of Karmic Luck, it would still be fine. If someone knows all of these Laws, they would be at a level where they don't need the help of soldiers, which would make this work again.'
'Sadly, I only need the Elements and the Aspects to create life. I don't even need the Law of Karmic Luck. I guess the Law of Karmic Luck is not intrinsic in a living being and simply affects them from the outside.'
Kyle looked to the side and focused on the Laws of the Minor Elements.
For just a bit, he tried to combine them as well. After all, what if there was a Law of Minor Elements?
Sadly, he quickly realized that he couldn't combine them. He could make parts of the Elements influence the other parts, and he could even mix them in a physical sense. However, the raw Energies they were made of didn't have any points at which they could be connected
Fire and earth could create magma, but Fire Energy and Earth Energy couldn't create Magma Energy, at least not in a pure sense. The only way to create this Magma Energy was by creating a Complex Law.
Overarching Laws didn't really exist. The closest thing to an overarching Law was a Minor Element Law to its Yin and Yang counterparts.
If there were an overarching or mixed Law...
It would just be a Complex Law.
