Supremacy Games

"Sigh, another failure." Felix smiled bitterly while walking back to his place.

He didn't know if he messed up something or the new method wasn't correct in the 1st place.

But he wasn't planning on giving up on it without attempting every possible solution. However, he needed to check with the Jörmungandr first if he was treading on the right path or not.

"Elder, what are your thoughts about my method?" Felix inquired politely, "Is this the way to increase the poison potency?"

"You are doing great." The Jörmungandr complemented but said nothing else after.

This was how he was teaching Felix about poison manipulation.

Jörmungandr let him explore it on his own and when he was utterly blocked, the Jörmungandr provides him with a small tip or advice to smoothen his path just slightly.

When Felix ends up finding a method, he always checks if it was correct or not lest he ends up giving up on the correct method and waste his time on the wrong ones.

Hence, Felix was more than glad to receive positive confirmation.

Now, he could continue exploring this method until he finally lands on the correct way to condense the mist and increase its potency!

He knew that this was a big leap in his poison manipulation since if he kept condensing the mist, he could turn it into liquid!!

But now, he didn't think about it and just focused on finding other ideas.

He spent more than 5 hours on this matter until his brain was squeezed from every last drop of juice it had.

Yet, all of his ideas turned to be a failure, leaving him scratching his hair in irritation and confusion.

"I tried to merge hundreds of tiny bombs until they reached a normal-sized bomb forcefully and their color was almost black. Yet, why did it also fail?" Exhausted, Felix laid on his back and started gazing at the white ceiling of the room.

He knew that he could tap out and ask the Jörmungandr for the answer. He would give it to him since Felix had given up.

But, Felix wasn't known for being a quiter and he still had a couple of hours to find a solution before the game.

Minutes went by then hours and Felix merely kept his eyes closed while thinking slowly and rationally about everything he did in the past hours.

Every small detail had been probed multiple times before Felix switched to another.

He kept doing so until he realized a common theme that was connecting all of his merging attempts!
