First of all, thank you very much for reading and following my chapters. It's truly an honor for me. This chapter will help you understand a few things. But if you have any questions, don't hesitate to ask.
First point or question:
Why did the First Prince also take part in the Awakening Trials?
Answer: To clarify, the First Prince is 21 years old, and yes, he did take part, but mainly as a safety measure. Indeed, at every Eclipse, someone who has already gone through Awakening and belongs to the nobility is chosen to participate. This can be for personal reasons as well. Even if someone has already awakened, there's still a small chance that the chosen person could gain bonus skills. Also, there is absolutely no risk of a previously awakened person failing the test.
If a person fails the test at age 7, they cannot become an adventurer. And if someone misses the Eclipse at age 7, it becomes essential for them to attempt it the following year—otherwise, they will never be able to awaken.
We've talked about Awakening, now let's talk about the types of magic:
This was mentioned during the Strength Test Part 2 (Chapter 5), but there's something you probably didn't fully grasp.
Cosmic Magic might seem like the weakest to you, but in reality, it can control gravity, magnetic fields, celestial bodies, summoning, enhance augmentation skills, and most importantly, it can cancel out spells (though true spell cancellation belongs to Divine Magic).
Still, Elemental Magic remains the most powerful overall, mostly because mages haven't fully explored its true potential.
What is the highest rank?
As stated, the ranks are G-F-E-D-C-B-A-S-SS.But the true ranking system is actually: G-F-E-D-C-B-A-S-SS-SSS-DK (Demon King)-IF (Infinitus)-DV (Divine).
The reason is that demons deliberately lowered the skill ranks, thus weakening their perceived power. However, there are indeed SSS-rank skills, but they only exist for humans and Demon Kings, as well as for SSS-level gods.
(Spoiler) Did you know that Henray's skill "Power of a God" is actually DV+ rank—a rank that technically doesn't even exist? But of course, that requires the skill to evolve first.
The Four Forms of Magic:
Inferior
Superior
Demonic (usable by all races)
Divine (no race has ever been able to use it)
Are the races connected?
Yes. Elves, dwarves, humans, and gods (who are essentially evolved humans) all share the same bloodline.Demons, on the other hand, are the result of mixed blood between monsters and humans.
Why do I say that gods are "evolved humans"?
Because there are two categories of gods: those who originate from human blood, and the primordial gods themselves. For example:The God of Creation, the God of Love, etc.
And why are the evolved human gods in conflict with humans?It's because of the rulers of both races—the kings are the real problem. Even though these gods are stronger than humans, their numbers are far fewer.
Final question: Is Henray part of the nobility?(Spoiler)
Yes. His mother is the queen of a very famous kingdom, though she ran away. His father, meanwhile, is the second greatest swordsman among both the ancient races and humans—soon to be recognized as the very first to master swordsmanship purely through technique, unlike the current top swordsman who relies on enchanted blades. And the prince of the kingdom of Midway. And no one knows him in Okto that's why the okto guards are not scared of the father of Henray
Thank you so much for reading this chapter.
