At that moment, all life forms in the Prima Universe saw an illusion. It lasted less than a nanosecond, so only powerhouses at Rank 9 could truly see its wonder.
They saw a force that sought to consume everything, to crave everything. It was a power that represented the quintessence of the Concept of Greed.
However, at the dark force's nucleus, there was a small child with a bright smile that changed all.
Mortals and even great powerhouses think that greed is all about wealth and power, but it is much more than that. Everybody wants something they do not have. Some want vain things like money and fame, but others seek family and friends.
The Concept of Greed was not evil. People failed to understand its might and potential. It could do wonders in the right hands, and now that little child became one with that mighty Concept.
Zatiel's eyes widened as he felt the change in the Concept of Greed. He glanced in the direction of the Leviathan World, but even if he wanted to do something, he was currently fighting two Rank 9 Archdevils.
All the Justice Primarchs also turned toward the Leviathan World, and the most shocked of all was Issac.
'What? How!?' The Magus Primarch could not understand how it happened. He had used his full power to cover the void, yet Venganza entered the Leviathan World. Had it not been for the child's actions, he would have noticed nothing.
However, Issac did not have much time to think as a golden storm began to manifest close to him. The Universe Will Storm was monstrously large, and its power shocked even a Second Evolution Extreme Rank 9 life form like the Magus Primarch.
"CRACK!"
The sound of thunder was shockingly powerful, terrifying all the powerhouses of the Dark Tower Alliance that besieged the Leviathan World.
"Do not resist!" Issac shouted as he waved his hands, covering all the powerhouses, and teleporting them away. The only ones left behind were him and Bahamut.
The Magus Primarch knew that no one else could withstand being near a fight that involved such a powerful phenomenon.
"I don't know what is happening, but be ready to run in case of anything. I doubt you could resist even a single strike from that." Issac spoke to Bahamut, but his eyes never left the Universe Will Storm that kept growing stronger.
"I know." Bahamut was not so arrogant as to believe he could match that storm.
Venganza and Ira also gazed at the Universe Will Storm forming in the void, but unlike the Magus Primarch and Dragon Primarch, their eyes only contained disdain.
"What... is that?" The little child could not keep the same composure as the duo, and fear appeared on his face.
"That is just an antiquated belief that considers our kind as aberrations. Your birth allowed it to act, and it seems ready to want to take the three of us out simultaneously." Venganza replied to the little child with calmness.
"Hmph, another punk that doesn't know what is good for it. One day, it will kneel before Sundered Night!" Ira's reaction fitted someone that controlled the Concept of Wrath.
Venganza saw how the little child relaxed a little after their response but was still afraid. A kind smile appeared as he got near and put a hand over this one's head.
"You don't have to worry. We are family now, and we will face all threats together."
The little child's fear vanished as he heard that, and a large smile appeared on his face.
"That is right. Big Brother will take care of everything!" Ira began to boast while puffing his chest.
Although the red bird wanted to seem imposing, his appearance made the child giggle.
"Little brat, are you laughing at your Big Brother?" The red bird grew angry, but the lack of any form of menacing aura only made him look even funnier.
Who would think such a relaxed atmosphere could be seen just before a cataclysmic battle?
"Ok, enough." Venganza stopped the bickering between the duo as a solemn expression appeared on his face. "From now on, you are Codicia, the Depravita of Greed, and the third member of Sundered Night!"
When Venganza uttered those words, Codicia felt a bond between him and the other two.
That bond surpassed that you could find in even brothers. It was as if they were a single entity. Deep down, the child knew he could always count on the duo, no matter what.
The next moment, Samsara of Sin and Man unleashed an immense force as a new realm began to glow.
Codicia's connection with Venganza and Ira ignited the second of the Seven Realms of Sin, making the trio's power skyrocket.
"CRACK!"
"CRACK!"
"CRACK!"
The Universe Will Storm perceived the rise in the trio's power, and its force also increased, as did the rage it manifested.
Venganza, Ira, and Codicia nodded before flashing to the void. Each unleashed a valiant aura as they stared at the Universe Will Storm with nothing but pure fighting will.
Issac stared at the trio with caution. Even if they were not bound to their destructive nature, he did not believe that creatures born of evilness could simply change.
Nevertheless, what happened next shocked him and made him understand that despite all his power, there was still a lot he needed to understand.
"Old man, I will ask you to protect the world. I don't want to see innocent people harmed." Codicia showed Issac a smile as he requested that before returning his focus to the Universe Will Storm.
Thanks to his Omega Law, Issac could see that there was no hidden intent in those words. The child was not trying to trick him into changing his mind about their kind. Codicia just wanted to protect people.
A meaningful light appeared in Issac's eyes before his aura exploded, unleashing a golden force that covered the entire Leviathan World.
Venganza and Ira glanced at the Magus Primarch and gave him a short nod. They did not particularly care about the Leviathan World, but since Codicia did, they were ready to overexert themselves to ensure no harm happened to it.
Luckily, with the Magus Primarch protecting it, the Depravita of Revenge and the Depravita of Wrath could put their entire focus on the battle.
The Universe Will Storm kept growing stronger, but when it reached its zenith, it began to condense instead of unleashing lighting arcs, forming a gargantuan humanoid larger than a Principal World!
Its body contained incredible power, with hands that ended up in sharp claws. The only reason the Universe Will did not infuse it with more energy was the restrictions put in place from its birth. The stronger the enemy, the more force it could unleash, but there was a limit.
"ROAR!" A roar that shattered the void for countless light years emerged from the humanoid as two white eyes appeared in its head and focused on the Depravitas.
The apparition of the gargantuan golden humanoid shocked everybody, including Zatiel and Ezequiel, who had already faced the Universe Will before.
Just how much did the Universe Will loathe Venganza, Ira, and Codicia for its desire to destroy them to evolve into that?
Facing an entity that embodied the desire of the will of the entire Prima Universe could crush the fighting spirit of almost any life form.
However, Venganza, Ira, and Codicia only smiled as their power burst.
"Hahaha, hate us all you want. Nothing will change the fact that we are the mighties race!"
"We will beat the crap out of you!"
"Yeah, we will beat you!"
