"In the beginning," the Supreme God Ominis had to impose these restrictions to give life a structure, allowing them to emerge."
At first, there were no living beings in this world; only the Supreme God Ominis and Demon King Clatis emerged from nothingness, and no third life was allowed to be conceived or to appear. For original chapters go to n0velfire.net
"Beings like the Demon King and the Supreme God are already at the limits of existence; a third of such caliber is fundamentally impossible."
Therefore, the Supreme God Ominis imposed restrictions on the concept of life, anchoring them within a structure, within a framework, significantly reducing the difficulty of birthing life.
Since a third being like them could not be born, the criteria were lowered, allowing the existence of beings inferior to them.
Thus, life had limits, and the concepts of level and skill were inscribed into the World's Principle alongside the perfection of the structure and framework, making the creation and birth of life possible.
This is why demons, theoretically capable of becoming a Demon King, are doomed never to reach that tier.
It is the world's inherent limit to accommodate only one Supreme God, one Demon King.
Exceeding this capacity, I fear, would result in a cosmic explosion, an overload leading to the collapse of everything.
Considering this, throughout history, only the Three Great Goddesses and Six Great Demons have ever transcended the limits of life and achieved Transcendence.
Even Lilith and Artemis, goddesses that embody both evil and justice, encountered some issues at birth.
Lilith was affected by her own authority over chaos, which pushed aside her rationality. After millennia of turmoil, she has only now successfully returned in this generation.
Artemis has her own issues, just that they remain unknown to others.
Even the goddess who governs the concept of time had to split into a trinity, unable to achieve Transcendence without uniting.
As for the Three Great Goddesses and the Six Great Demons, they were naturally Transcendent; the former being split from the Supreme God, the latter born directly from the Demon King's magic power—only within the protection of these two extraordinary beings' power can one enter into Transcendence, achieving what has been achieved.
"The very limit of life is insurmountable."
Chafne spoke solemnly.
"Throughout history, the only ones who could surpass this life limit are Heroes from Otherworlds, who to a certain extent are not bound by this world's Reason."
The concept of "Hero" is indeed on par with that of the Demon King and the Supreme God.
The three counterbalance, rely on each other, thus making the Hero so unique.
"The Hero is not constrained by life's restrictions and can step into Transcendence without any side effects."
Chafne declared definitively.
"Other than Heroes, it is nothing short of a fantasy for all other life forms to seek Transcendence, and even if they ultimately succeed for some reason, various issues will arise, or they may simply be incomplete."
Lilith, Artemis, and the Three Goddesses of Time and Space represent these "various issues."
And that half-demon and the Great Spirit Body from death are examples of the latter.
Therefore, Chafne could say with certainty.
"That so-called Great Spirit Body not only has Transcend Level power for a limited time, but once it loses the Secret Treasure called Branch of Resurgence from the Supreme God, it will instantly revert to its original form."
"Don't just talk about her; even that individual who completed the Seventh Demon creation project and completed his Demon Body might suffer from some unpredictable side effects."
"That's precisely why he wants to devour the current Demons, to obtain a complete Demon Body."
"If it's us who were also nurtured as demons like him, once he devours us, it would be as though he's replaced us, obtaining a perfect Demon Body without side effects."
Chafne blurted all this out in one breath.
Shane had an epiphany.
"Then why are you suppressing the information?"
Shane still questioned this doubt.
"What else could it be for?" Chafne replied impatiently: "Of course, it's to prevent the situation from becoming even more complicated, my Lord Hero."
With Shane's identity exposed, it had already caused enough chaos among the Demon Clan to incite an upheaval.
The Divine Race and Human Race were also affected, causing the peaceful situation of a thousand years to suddenly become very unstable.
In such a case, if it were to be revealed that the Hero possessed Transcend Level power, the reaction of the Demon Clan would undoubtedly be even greater, and the Divine Race and Human Race might also harbor unnecessary delusions.
After all, one couldn't rule out the possibility that some might think since they now had a Transcend Level Hero on their side, perhaps they could actually attempt to challenge the Demon Clan.
Even if it wasn't about restarting a war, using it as a means to threaten or entice, bargaining for more benefits, couldn't that also be a viable option?
What's more, within the Human Race, there might be many who wanted to exploit this power.
Taking these various impacts into account, Sera finally decided to join forces with the Three Great Goddesses and her own sisters to temporarily seal this information.
"For this reason, during your time in the Demon Realm, the Divine Race had already sent people to the Lower Realm, either to negotiate with the new Emperor of the Empire to seal the news or to perform memory and impression seals on some related individuals, blurring or even erasing their memories."
Chafne informed Shane of such a secretive piece of information.
"Because of this, you are only known as a Legendary Hero in the world, and most people even think that you have only been in Omni Potanssen for half a year, that your Level hasn't reached Legendary, and that it is only due to the enhancement of the Holy Sword and the power of your Unique Skill that you possess Legendary Level combat power."
This greatly obscured Shane's true strength, and aside from a few interested parties, it was unlikely that anyone would notice this point.
Even the fact that Shane had defeated Aridia had already been kept under wraps by the Kingdom.
Had it not been for Shane's acts as a mysterious and powerful figure in the Imperial City, which had confirmed his Legendary Level combat prowess, it might have been possible for the world to believe that Shane didn't even possess Legendary Level power.
Shane couldn't help but exclaim, "Good grief."
Could it be that his information was being controlled so tightly?
"What about the 'Primordial Demon' people?" Shane wondered. "Were their memories also affected?"
"This..." Chafne furrowed her brows, and after a pause, shook her head, saying, "Perhaps it's an internal issue with them, or it could be an issue with the Great Spirit Body that obtained the Branch of Resurgence. Maybe they just don't get along."
It wasn't an impossible scenario.
Otherwise, why would only Parren have come today?
Even if Parren failed, there should have been more than just that Half-demon watching from the shadows.
If that Half-demon had teamed up with the Great Spirit Body, even if their Transcendence was incomplete, they could have directly challenged Chafne.
At that point, if Chafne were cursed again, the chances of the opponent's victory would've been one hundred percent.
But as it turned out, the Great Spirit Body had not participated in this action, choosing to have the Half-demon leader personally take the field instead.
This suggested that there might be some internal issues within the 'Primordial Demon'.
In that case, it wasn't surprising that the Great Spirit Body hadn't passed on information about Shane's ability to kill Moro.
In any case, it felt somewhat lucky to have dodged a bullet this time.
Otherwise, even with Shane present, the opposition might have set some trap or strategy that could have led to him sharing the same fate as Chafne, falling victim to the two incomplete Transcendences of the other side.
"Should I thank the Supreme God for the luck I've had?"
Shane spread his hands in a gesture.
"Why thank the Supreme God? If anything, you should thank the Demon King!"
Chafne strongly objected.
Girl, you must not realize that I have the Supreme God's Blessing, that the world is looking after me, helping me, and bringing me good fortune.
"Let's first find a way to remove your curse."
Shane didn't further discuss the matter, returning to the main topic.
Chafne naturally had no objections.
