As the Bluejay Fleet cut through space like knives, Ves remained distracted throughout the remainder of the trip.
The Overlord Project turned out to be a bigger deal than he anticipated.
If it succeeded, then it had the potential to open up an entirely new branch of red humanity that pursued power in an entirely different form!
Mechs and warships would no longer hold a duopoly on power. The rise of phase lords in human society would trigger a major restructuring of the existing power base!
The Red Association was playing a dangerous game here. Granting people a lot of power would likely lead to inflated egos and other detrimental consequences. The situation could easily grow out of control.
Perhaps the constant shortage of phasewater may temper the ambitions of many human phase lords, but there would always be people who made a lot more progress than others.
