Chapter 844: Talking with a Law (1/2)
Krune then looked at the Tribulation Clouds disappearing before thinking.
'Since you sent this thing to me, I might as well use it for my own benefit.'
Krune then controlled his foundation so that the Tribulation Lightning inside was spread in every direction. Of course, a Universe Foundation was enormous. He couldn't reach every corner of the foundation with just that. However, Krune was now in the God Foundation Realm. With that, he could still control his soul as he wished. That being said, he gathered most of it around the area where the Tribulation Lightning was located and began to use it to temper his soul.
Of course, it was anything but pleasurable. That made Krune remember his time in Makui Planet when he entered the Mohie Sect.
'Now that I think about it, maybe Mohie Zarks reached this place. I wonder if I can find him one day.'
Krune then put those thoughts behind and continued his Soul Tempering, which lasted several hours. There was some damage every now and then, but with his Mental Energy from the Soul Cultivation Technique, he separated the damaged area to be healed. Eventually, the last wisp of the Tribulation Lightning disappeared. However, Krune took that chance to make another breakthrough.
'Godly Soul Source 1st Stage!'
Krune had been accumulating energy for this breakthrough for quite some time already. With this last tempering, he felt like it had become strong enough for the breakthrough. Sure enough, it worked.
Krune then got up as he looked at Dima's group.
”Sigh... Don't look at me like that. Even I didn't know that the Calamity Laws had sentience, okay? In fact, this is something you guys should know, not me.”
Dima's mouth twitched as he said.
”We didn't even know that it existed before. We found out about it once you appeared in the guild with this thing. That said, how could we know that it had sentience? No, forget about that. This is a huge thing.”
Roben and Zap agreed with Dima.
”Exactly. Krune's Calamity Laws have sentience. Of course, Laws are omnipresent. It's just that it only decided to talk with Krune for some reason. Does that mean that it likes Krune? Can laws like someone? Well, it was laughing, so I guess it does have emotions as well.”
Krune bitterly smiled as he said.
”Liked me? That thing sent down a fucking tribulation that almost killed me! Do you try to kill someone you like? I doubt that.”
Dima narrowed his eyes as he responded.
”But... I've never heard about laws having sentience. If it decided to talk to you, it at least thinks of you as special. The question is... why?”
Zap pondered for a bit before asking.
”Krune, can you contact the Calamity Laws on your own?”
Krune shrugged his shoulders as he said.
”Did you forget? Laws are omnipresent. If that really is the case, it's definitely listening to our conversation right now. Go ahead, Calamity Laws, talk with us.”
*Whoosh...*
Sure enough, not a single word could be heard.
”Maybe... Laws are not omnipresent.”
Krune nodded.
”That makes sense. Calamity Laws are something that only I can use as far as I know. Oh, I know, I was the one who gave birth to Calamity Laws. This thing is my child. Hahaha!”
As soon as Krune said that, an enraged voice echoed in their minds.
”Your ass! Who the hell is your child?”
Immediately, that dark cloud of laws gathered in front of them as it continued to talk.
”I'm even older than the Four Realms, alright? If anything, you are my child. After all, your race is born from chaos. Also, stop calling me Calamity Laws. Fuck that! Why do I have such a terrible name?”
Everyone's mouth twitched after hearing that. Something unbelievable was happening right in front of Krune and the others. They... were talking with a Law...
Krune then quickly recovered before asking.
”Ahem... I called it Calamity Laws because... because... Oh, right. Because that was how my wife and friends called it.”
Wife and friends? Dima's group didn't even know Krune was married.
Still, it was true. The ones who came up with this name were Luvile and the others. That how they tried to make sense of Krune's ability to fall into problems every time he had a breakthrough.
”I don't like it.”
Dima then took a deep breath before asking.
”Then, how should we call you, sir? Errr... should I call you sir in the first place? Wait, do you even have a gender?”
The dark cloud of laws and elements then approached Dima.
”I'm a law, or a gathering of them to be more specific. How the hell would I have a gender? Anyway, you can call me... errr... I've never thought about a name before.”
Krune nodded as he suggested.
”Then let's call you Little Cally!”
As always, Krune's naming sense was out of the charts.
Everyone almost vomited blood from that. Just... Where the hell did you get that name from? First of all, how can Krune act so relaxed while talking with a Law? That's a law, you know? Shouldn't you show some more respect?
”Oh! I like that.”
Dima's group didn't know whether to laugh or cry anymore after that.
'You like it? Bro, are you for real? You're a freaking law!'
Krune ignored... no, he simply didn't notice the others' feelings as he continued.
”Alright, Little Cally Laws it is. Now, then. Why the hell are you targeting me? Now that I think about it, you have probably been following me ever since I was at Makui.”
Dima narrowed his eyes as he thought.
'Makui? Is that the name of a territory? I don't remember any area nearby being called like that.'
Little Cally didn't deny that.
”Well, that's true. Your journey so far has been really funny.”
Krune's expression was dark.
