GREED: ALL FOR WHAT?-Chapter 1717: In The Beginning.

In the beginning, POWER, WISDOM, AND SOUL gathered around the pool of darkness. Some call it the tear in reality, and others call it the rift in the Cosmos. It goes by many names, but it is easily identifiable once it is gazed upon.

It is a wrongness in reality. Something ought to be there, but nothing is. Nothing shouldn't exist at all. There is either order, chaos, entropy, space rifts, time tunnels, or something else. But there shouldn't be nothing.

Nothing is clearly dangerous. For that reason, not many entities like to be around the pool of darkness. But not many entities are WISDOM, POWER, AND SOUL.

They are one of the few who know that the pool of all-consuming darkness is the spot in the cosmos where the power of ANNIHILATION is spilling over from.

But that knowledge is not why they were bold enough to approach the pool of darkness. If anything, they regret possessing that knowledge, as it will reduce the chance of success of their plan.

They say ignorance is bliss. In the case of ANNIHILATION, it truly is. The ignorant entities don't want to be around the pool of darkness because they fear it instinctively. It is an irrational fear of the unknown. But it is good because knowing the source of the pool of darkness can cause it to contaminate you across space and time, which will cause you to be ANNIHILATED.

It is a death that will wipe out an entity from all space, time, history, and knowledge. No one would mourn them because everyone would have forgotten about them.

It is a dreadful fate that even POWER, WISDOM, AND SOUL are not safe. They are not that strong yet. So it is not a good thing for them to be this close to it. But they are here because they are desperate.

They have searched the infinite Cosmos for the legacy of the SUPREME and have found nothing. This is the last spot that they have yet to search, and they are running out of time to find it.

They were not the only ones who witnessed the moment when the Lord of Madness died. They and many others saw the crack that almost split the cosmos into two. They felt the quacking of the cosmos and the heart wrenching emptiness left behind by the absence of the SUPREME. The SUPREME died. Until the point he died, they didn't know just how suffocated they were by his existence. They knew he was in all space and time, aware of everything happening, and omnipotent, but it was after his death that they realized how bad it was for the SUPREME to be everywhere in the Cosmos, breathing over their necks and watching their every move. It was until the pressure of his existence left them that they suddenly felt lightheaded and liberated. They gained freedom in the absence of the SUPREME. But that was just the beginning

Technically, with the SUPREME gone, they could do anything they wanted. It just so turns out that what they all wanted was to replace the SUPREME.

No one wanted to be subject to that feeling ever again. But more than that, they wanted to be the reason why others have to watch their backs all the time because of the sensation of being watched.

They want to be the reason why others can't breathe loudly in infinite Cosmos. They want to declare the banishment of true immortals and watch the true immortals that disobey that rule banished or imprisoned.

They all want to be SUPREME because it is the only way for them to be certain that someone else won't be above them and have the power to make them miserable. Unfortunately, wishes are not horses.

To become the SUPREME, one must reach the pinnacle of power in all space and probabilities of the Cosmos. These 3 siblings are far from that point, so they must come to the pool of darkness and risk their lives by venturing into it to look for a legacy of the previous SUPREME that might help to improve their strength.

One might think it is foolish to risk their lives for a chance at greatness. After all, it is a gamble that they cannot afford to lose. WISDOM knows this. That's why he is not going to be the one to venture into the pool of darkness. He is smart enough to decide not to go and lucky enough to have his brother.

POWER doesn't think it is foolishness to risk it all for a chance at greatness. But he suspects that it is the reason why WISDOM is giving him the "honor" to take the lead on this project.

POWER asked, "Are you sure it is alright for me to do this? You don't want to follow me at all?"

WIADOM replied. "I am sure. I only want the foundation of wisdom and the well of wisdom in any of the worlds you find. You can take everything else you find. Besides, it is not wise to risk all our lives at once."

POWER knew that WISDOM was scheming. But POWER also knew that while the mission was risky, it was going to be highly rewarding too.

A single universe with a connection with the aspect of infinity will have foundations of power, wisdom, and soul that are very powerful. If he gets his hands on them, that means he gets to keep two foundations and will edge out his siblings in power.

The two of them spoke some more on the specifics of their arrangement. POWER would venture into the pool of darkness and brave the risks. WISDOM on the other hand, would stay safe outside, but will give POWER something to assist him in finding and taking the foundations of worlds.

These two beings thus hashed out a plan to excavate a universe or more than one for power. One of them is a collosus of an entity who is completely white and appears to be formed of a single solidified explosion. This entity is POWER. He looks like a bright white rock shining brightly and illuminating his surroundings.
