Damon couldn't understand what had happened, but he could understand the consequence of it.
Even as his probability shift succeeded, causing the displayed votes from the Pre-Chaos beings to all glow green, meaning that he was the victor and was now free, his expression remained grim.
After all, one of his worst fears had come to pass.
He was now in competition with the Universe Will over Chaos Essence!
It was not that surprising when you thought of it. Now that it was confirmed that his Probability Manipulation could offset the cost using obtained Chaos Essence, this changed everything for Damon.
Whether it was him or Marshal, they were nominally the 'strongest' because of their ability to bend reality but were also the weakest because bending reality was too costly, so the things they could make happen stuck within their range of power.
