Chapter 385 Binding Etherium Realm
”A complete ruling committee and a representative are needed to join the Dimensional War Ranking.”
Reading this rule, they understood why Maximus was in a hurry to unite the Etherium Realm.
“How is it?”
“We still don’t agree!”
“I can’t have a brat who hasn’t even experienced an epoch be our representative much less the master of our dimension.”
“Then how about we vote?”
“According to Fealan, we would establish an Etherium Alliance with all of us being leaders.”
“As for the representative, since we can’t agree unanimously, we can only vote,” Maximus suggested with a smile.
“Hahaha, sure! I elect myself as the representative! Who’s for and who’s against?” Alabaster said, raising his hand.
Unfortunately, no one voted besides him.
Even Readius, who was by his side, just looked gloomy.
After all, who didn’t want to be the representative?
Being the representative is not only about status but also the corresponding benefits.
First is the profit sharing: 10 percent of the reward and income from the war goes to the representative automatically.
Of the remaining 90 percent, 50 percent is for the dimension, and 40 percent is distributed according to degree of contribution.
With such a large-scale war, one could imagine how massive the rewards will be.
The second benefit is decision-making.
The representative can decide everything, from who to fight, where to fight, the method of fighting, and the rewards.
The representative can command them anything in the war unless they defect from their dimension.
Because, third and the most important benefit of being a representative is being a master of the dimension.
As the master, mobilizing the power of the dimension, unless one is an invincible existence above it, the representative could do anything as he will.
Only a master of the dimension could mobilize and initiate a dimensional war.
Thus, a representative must be the strongest, the smartest, and the most influential.
Looking at the cunning Maximus, they already knew who the winner would be.
“What about me, Maximus Shadowcrest? Raise your hand if you want me to be the representative.”
Laughing out, Malgron hurriedly raised his hand.
As a fellow on the same continent, of course, he would support Maximus.
As for being a representative or whatever, he didn’t care.
Fealan also raised his hand in support, seeing that his son-in-law was already the sure winner.
Even if he represented himself, he was sure no one would vote for him.
Everyone was selfish, thus seeing Malgron blatantly break this balance, Fealan could only sigh and give up.
Furthunately, it was Maximus, his son-in-law, which is better than either Alabaster or Readius.
Seeing the result, Alabaster nearly went berserk.
He felt he was being tricked.
How is this a vote?
There were too few of them, to have a fair competition.However, agreeing to vote for the representative, no matter who the winner was, he couldn’t do anything.
“It seems I won by majority vote…” Maximus smiled.
“Hmph!”
Looking at Maximus’ smug face, they couldn’t help but want to punch it.
Fortunately, they were civilized people, so they managed to hold themselves back.
Thinking of Maximus becoming the Master of the Dimension, thoughts of retreat flashed in their minds.
It seemed they needed to set up a retreat place as soon as possible.
If something went wrong and Maximus dared to abuse his power, they would quickly escape and defect from the Etherium Realm.
With their accumulated wealth over countless epochs, whether in energy or matter, buying a small dimension shouldn’t be a problem.
This is also why they didn’t react greatly having Maximus above them.
No matter how high he went, as long as they escaped it wouldn’t affect them.
Seeing there were no more complaints, Maximus quickly began the great unification.
However, just as he was about to bind the Etherium Realm, he was suddenly blocked by the Etherium Realm World’s Will.
Unlike other dimensions, where one only had to bind the Dimension, Maximus needed to pass the World’s Will.
As if sensing his intention, an energy manifested in front of them.
“What did you do?~” an otherworldly voice sounded.
“Is this the World’s Will?” Fealan muttered in interest.
Throughout all the epochs, the World’s Will had never manifested.
It had only passed messages to them through transmission and other forms.
Seeing an energy body made of the Origin of Law, he couldn’t help but pause.
“I want to bind the Etherium Realm,” Maximus said straightforwardly.
A World’s Will can never be the representative of a dimension.
Although they are smart, powerful, and almost omnipotent, they are a different entity from them.
A World’s Will is a manifestation of rules, formed after a series of accidents and mutations.
According to what he had studied, a World’s Will is part of a cycle higher than their plane of existence.
Theoretically, a tier 12 Dimensional World Will have the capability of destroying their plane of existence by itself.
Having such a threat and potential, it was destined that they could never be master and could only be used by others or be destroyed.
Furthermore, through countless epochs of existence, there has never been a tier 12 Dimensional World’s Will.
A tier 12 dimension’s limit is only a tier 11 World’s Will.
It seemed that their plane of existence was limiting the birth of what would destroy it.
“You should already know your fate. If you don’t submit to us, you will either be destroyed or be captured and enslaved,” Maximus explained.
With the intelligence of the World’s Will, how could it not study the transdimensional system that suddenly appeared in its dimension?
Maximus even gave it a direct copy so it could personally explore the Nexus Virtual Gateway.
Seeing such a scene, Maximus was sure that it already knew its fate.
“Are you threatening me?”
“No, I’m merely stating a fact. This has always been the fate of a World’s Will.”
“Instead of having another dimension interfere, you should just let me bind you.”
“I promise I won’t do anything detrimental to the Etherium Realm and will always do my best to make it prosper.”
After a silence, the humanoid energy entity in front of him seemed to give up its fate.
“Ok…” With a nod, the World’s Will suddenly merged towards him, binding itself on its own.
Heaving a sigh of relief, Maximus guided the World’s Will on what to do.
…
A few hours later, Maximus slowly opened his eyes.
Feeling the Etherium Realm bound to him, he smiled.
“Since you willingly bound to me, how about I give you a name?”
“What name? I’ll consider it~”
“Since you are the Etherium World’s Will, how about I call you Etheria?”
“That’s good, I’ll be named Etheria from now on~”
“Then I look forward to working with you, Etheria,” Maximus smiled.
Binding Etheria, Maximus felt the Etherium Realm within his grasp.
Land could be terraformed, weather patterns could be altered, treasures could be picked—anything inside the Etherium Dimension could be manipulated.
However, as he tried to control the chaotic sea, he felt some blockage.
It seemed that the chaotic sea was not part of the dimension and couldn’t be touched.
Not having time to investigate further, he turned his attention to the abyss.
“Can you absorb this Abyss?” Maximus asked.
Although he could do it himself, Maximus felt it was too bothersome.
Absorbing the Abyss was like disassembling a complete Lego set and merging it into another.
Although he could do it, it was too time-consuming.
“Yes, this is what should I do,” Etheria nodded.
“That’s good. We’ll leave this place to you. Tell us if you need anything else,” Maximus said.
The thousands of Apex Sovereigns were still waiting for him to heal.
…
Etherium Realm:
After Maximus returned, he hurriedly healed the Apex Sovereigns.
With their ‘Origin’ injured and almost exhausted, they barely had the power of mortals.
Barely able to stand, they couldn’t do anything but wait for Maximus to help them.
A few days later…
“Huh~ finally done.”
After working non-stop, Maximus had barely stabilized their ‘Origin’.
There was nothing more he could do; he had barely even healed himself, let alone others.
“Thank you, alliance leader!” they said sincerely.
Even though oaths and contracts bound Maximus to fulfill his end of the bargain, they had still been worried that he might renege on his word.
After all, as a dimensional master, there were many ways Maximus could cheat.
It could be said that these few days, they had fallen into despair knowing Maximus had become a dimensional master.
Seeing that the leaders of their continents couldn’t do anything, they could only pray for themselves.
Fortunately, Maximus was still trustworthy.
With the stabilization of their ‘Origin’, it would only take some time to regain their former glory.
“Don’t worry, this is what I should do as the Etherium Alliance Leader.”
These were the main fighters of the coming Dimension War Ranking, he couldn’t let something happen to them.
Thus even though he is not yet fully healed he tried his best to heal them.
He didn’t have time for needless interest.
What they had to do now is to join the Dimensional War Ranking as quickly as possible.
With the sword of damocles hanging above them, he couldn’t afford to waste any more time.
