They thought to pressure Soverick into fighting them. It was an idea that doomed them the moment Soverick decided to give them what they want. Now, this entity behaved in the way of the doomed and has fallen into Soverick's clutches because of it. There will be no escaping his fate.

Soverick ignored the cries of the entity and took out the black sphere he just made in his forge. He pressed some runes on it and imputed Origin energy into the object. It was then that Soverick spoke to the entity.

He said, "Don't worry, it will be ready soon. It just needs a lot of Origin energy to kick-start it but it should become self-sufficient once I attach it to you."

His calm eerie voice and white unfocused eyes finally broke the entity's resolve. He began begging.

"Please Eldest. Don't do this to me. Please forgive me."

Ghaster said that he won't beg. He made a show of being stubborn and unbreakable. The black runic sphere has not even been attached to him yet and he is already begging.

Soverick waved his hand, "Don't be like that. There's nothing you should be afraid of. You should be happy instead, for you are about to be part of something great."

His words didn't assure Ghaster. He remained skeptical. So he complained, "But ancestor Hadrick said it might not work."

Soverick raised his voice for the first time. "IT WILL WORK."

That sealed Ghaster's fate as a test subject. Soverick has had enough of people doubting his skill one after the other. If anything, he must now use Ghaster as the test subject to prove that it will work. If Ghaster had a 1% chance of getting released by begging, he now has a 0% chance of it now for doubting that what Soverick created might not work.

The functionality of the artifact will be tested at his own expense. It is as they say, put your money where your mouth is. His mouth has gotten him into trouble. He will have to prove if Soverick's artifact will work or not.

The black sphere unfolded into thin sheets like ribbons. It was peeled apart layer by layer until it unfolded into a long and thin black sheet with runes on them. Soverick directed the sheet at the bound Ghaster and it wrapped him up. He was wrapped tight like a mummy. Then the second phase of activation was commenced.

Sharp needles sprung out from the inner surface of the ribbon and penetrated Ghaster's body. He was still begging before it happened but he began screaming when the needles pierced his body. His screaming intensified as the runes of the ribbon pulsed. The mummified Ghaster began to glow along with the pulsing of the runes.

The scream of pain continued for a while with an indifferent Soverick ignoring it and focusing on the functioning artifact. Only Hadrick couldn't bare the screaming but it is also torn between guilt and fascination. Hadrick also wants to see if Soverick really did it. He can only hope that the artifact actually works and doesn't maim Ghaster. As long as the artifact works then Ghaster's sacrifice even if he is maimed will be worth it.

The mummified Ghaster stopped glowing after a while. Ghaster's scream suddenly stopped too as he lost control of himself. He is still feeling pain but he can't scream anymore. In fact, his pain has only increased due to the hijacking of his existence. The artifact has injected itself into Ghaster's consciousness and has taken control of his body.

Then the mummified Ghaster activated the third phase. It began to shrink. It shrank until it became a black sphere just like its previous form. Ghaster's 2 meters tall body shrunk into a ball 20 centimeters wide. Then the sphere flew back to Soverick its creator.

"Did it work?" Hadrick asked in anticipation.

"Let's see. HAND GLOVE MODE."

The sphere heard his command and shifted again. It became a ribbon and wrapped around Soverick's hand turning it into a hand glove.

"FOURTH ACTIVATION."

The hand glove activated for the fourth time. This time it began to emit lightning. Soverick punched forward and a massive fist formed out of lightning was ejected from his gloved hand before dissipating. The lightning fist is blue and has Ghaster's energy signature.

Hadrick became ecstatic. "It worked. You did it. You actually did it and I was there to witness it too. This is glorious. This is monumental."

Soverick spoke smugly. "I told you it will work."

He has the right to be smug. He has just converted a living entity into a weapon. Origin weapons are fragments of origin gods that's why they become obsolete with them but world fragments are too powerful to be made by them. So he sought to create a weapon that is a whole body instead of body parts by converting an entire being into a weapon. It is a prototype of a concept to turn a full origin god into a weapon that is more powerful than mere fragments.

This is why he wasn't tempted by the offer to learn how to make world fragments. That and the fact that he already knows how to make world fragments. He learned how to make it from Helios. Helios is sort of a fragment of the universe. He gained some insights into a lot of things with his access to the law matrix of the universe.

Unlike origin gods who can only manipulate the law matrix, Helios can actually speak with the law matrix and glean some information about the underlying mechanisms of the void universe.

Soverick continued, "It is just a transcendent now. We don't know if it works for stronger beings much less an Origin god. We need more data."

"Still, this is still great," Hadrick exclaimed then it noticed something unfortunate. "Oh, I think more trouble is coming."

Hadrick's excitement sputtered out when he noticed the storm of power heading toward them. Someone is very angry about what he did to his brother.
