Supremacy Games

'The heart of a newborn devourer.' Jörmungandr thought, 'A treasure that would be sought after even by the primogenitors.'

Jörmungandr knew that Lady Sphinx was investing this much in Felix not just because that the project seemed a worthwhile experience but also so she could bet on him during the games!

Jörmungandr was already filled in by all of the details about the primogenitors' games, ranging from their rules to the way of entry.

There wasn't a rule that forbids two or three primogenitors from choosing the same champion and betting on him.

However, to combat abuse, they initiated that both primogenitors would require to bet a treasure each on their champion while their opponents require to bet only once.

This made the primogenitors ignore the option. However, in the case of the Jörmungandr and Lady Sphinx, they were special.

The Jörmungandr was already dead and merely a tiny of his consciousness still lingering around.

Hence, he didn't give a crap about the treasures he was placing as bets or the ones he would be winning since his entire goal was simply to put his enemies back in their place.

This made it possible for Lady Sphinx to bet on Felix as well and end up getting treasures that would be immensely useful in her research projects. So, they made a perfect team.

What Felix would get from all of this? Wasn't he already being paid in advance by opening for him a path to the peak of the universe that no human could even dream of?!

Just this heart of the newborn Devourer was a treasure that couldn't be sold by coins since its value far surpass what coins could ever purchase.

Yet, Lady Sphinx didn't hesitate to bring it out from the container and start surgically modifying Felix's body to fit it perfectly.

Due to all the experiments on Felix's copy, whether they failed or succeeded, Lady Sphinx had gained enough experience to make this surgery flow like art in the eyes of Asna and Jörmungandr.

With the help of her competent clone assistants, everything seemed perfect and in order.

Hours went by just like this, making Asna yawn lazily as it wasn't that fun to watch a 19 hours long silent surgery.

Thankfully, it was already in its last stretch as Lady Sphinx had successfully integrated the small devourer's heart besides Felix's heart.

If anyone saw through the chest opening, they would be left in absolute disbelief as the devourer's heart was now connected artificially with Felix's heart.
