'I have the weakest Momentum. That's kinda crazy,' Kyle thought. 'Seems like I was left behind by them. Well, at least when it comes to Momentum.'
Even though Kyle's instincts told him that he was the weakest in the group, he knew that was just the effect of Momentum.
In truth, there was no doubt that Kyle was the strongest.
The addition of a Personal Law and the fact that he became a Legendary Primal before advancing was just too big of an advantage.
As Kyle listened to their stories as World Defenders, he understood how their Momentum could become so strong.
Naturally, the Cult also needed to improve the Momentum of their followers, and they mostly did that by attacking random Planet Systems that belonged to powers subservient to stronger Organizations.
There was a bit of an agreement between the two sides regarding what they would send. Of course, the agreement was not really binding, and no side had formally acknowledged the agreement. It was much more of a logical progression.
Both sides wanted to improve the Momentum of their members, but both sides also wanted to eradicate each other.
During these battles, powerful members of both sides would be watching the battle. One had to remember that one needed to be in the tenth Realm to send someone across Dimensions.
This meant that the Cult of Final Fate always had someone in the tenth Realm overlooking the battle.
If the Cult sent people in the fifth Realm to attack a Planet System, the Array of Stars could theoretically send people in the sixth or seventh Realm to quickly deal with them.
However, this put these people at risk since the person in the tenth Realm might become active. There was also a chance that the Cult would simply send people in the eighth Realm to kill the people in the sixth or seventh Realms.
One escalation would provoke a further escalation, and no side wanted that.
Because of that, they simply sent people of relatively equal power.
Yet, there were still times during which the conflict actually escalated, and that was where Kyle's team got the really big boosts of Momentum.
Star Genesis and Swamp Dragon had been attacked more than once by Crushers, and the only thing they had been able to do was to survive until reinforcements arrived.
In these cases, it was not about winning but about surviving.
These instances were extremely dangerous and desperate, which did wonders for their Momentum.
As for Manny's Momentum, it was just a bit stronger than Kyle's. He had simply gone as far as he needed to become a Unique Primal. The fact that his Momentum was stronger was simply because his last True Battle had shot him a bit over the finish line, while Kyle was essentially on the finish line.
After everyone talked for a while longer, they finally came to the topic of jobs.
"Hey, before we talk about our jobs, I wanna know something," Kyle said.
The others looked at him.
"Does everyone know the Law of Mind?" he asked. "I think that's important to note."
"We all know it," Swamp Dragon answered.
"Good," Kyle commented. "So, we can choose a job that doesn't come with long periods of free time. Would suck if one of us wouldn't be able to comprehend any Laws because they had to leave their Law Comprehension every five years or so."
"That is a possibility," Star Genesis said. "We should keep that in mind while choosing. As far as I can see, our team is outstanding, even inside the Array of Stars. We should take a job that takes advantage of our power."
Kyle nodded with a smile. "I agree. Anyway, has anyone actually already looked at the jobs?"
"We can't," Manny said. "We need the entire team to see our available jobs."
"Sure, then, wanna take a look?" Kyle asked.
The others looked at each other and nodded.
