The Absolute: Humanity's Second Chance - 94 Evolved Inheritance
Within a Realm filled to thr brim with countless treasures, gold, silver, rare metals, rare minerals, and exotic godly stones, only silence prevailed.
As one man, one artifact, both staring silent daggers at each other. And the status remained the same, until The Primordial Source broke the silence.
[ TING!!! ]
[ The Seed of Yggdrasil would like to alert you of the successful process of devouration. It has devoured enough Pure Reified Divine Power to undergo an Evolution instantly ]
“Wait, what?” Damien responded in shock. He then watched as the Sprout of Yggdrasil flew into his Void Keeper, satisfied and content with itself.
Not minding his presence.
Damien stood at the same spot in shock. But he overally did not mind. At least, Juliette will obtain an even greater gift from this trip.
So he did not mind. As for the few units he struggled to obtain? He had plans for them.
Even one would have been enough, but having a bit more would not hurt anybody. Especially humans. They could handle the consequences. Probably.
As for his plans for them? He was going to converged them to create a Mana Pool where people could absorb Mana, and increase it to their potential’s maximum capacity.
After all, a single unit could give out a trillion by a trillion units of Divine power, which was likewise a septillion units of Mana. And as he had twelve units, that was twelve septillion units of Mana.
Even if all of humanity was made up of Heaven defying geniuses, they could absorb everything and still have plenty to spare. It was abundant.
“Now… that aside, let’s see how to seal with this Realm. None of us can manage a Realm as weak as we are, and if we don’t manage it, it won’t be movable.” He thought out loud.
That side, even the strongest of beings within his world would not bare the fusion of a Pseudo-Realm, let alone a weak mortal like him with a Stage 2 Realm.
But he already had an idea on how to solve that problem. He took out the Unique grade Holy Knight Inheritance, and took another glance at it.
“Hey… I’d like to break down the Realm. Is that possible?” He asked, and a response from the one he called out to, immediately arrived.
[ The Realm has become your reward from your Wish Trial. You are now the Realm King. Are you sure about that? And to add, breaking down a Stage 2 Realm would normally give you two Stage 1 Realms. But here, you might obtain two Pseudo-Realms instead. Think it through ]
The Primordial Source inquired and adviced. But Damien still nodded. Being a Realm King, changed nothing. A King could rule his kingdom, but it wouldn’t be easy to move it as he pleases.
Plus, even if he could move it, it would still not benefit anyone much. Owning a Realm at his low stage, would restrict him to only operating under its influence.
Like how the Realm Guardian could not leave the Realm even as a high god.
[ …The Stage 2 Realm will now undergo separation into two Pseudo-Realms. Please wait a moment for the process to take place ]
“…”
Damien nodded, and waved his hand, collecting the torn apart corpse of the Realm Guardian, and all the treasures within the Realm, leaving it dark, damp and empty.
Then under his vision, he saw the Realm break apart into two, him and Flint floating within the endless darkness in between.
The two Pseudo-Realms increased to be more than a quadruple the size of the previous Stage 2 Realm, but it’s glory and essence were greatly decreased.

“Sacrifice the entire reserves of one Pseudo-Realm, and elevate the given Inheritance to the next grade. Then break down the other Realm into Domains.” He said.
[ Are you aware that for the first process, there is a chance that it could fail? Losing the Realm as well? Are you aware of that? ]
The Primordial Source inquired, and Damien nodded. “More than aware. I’m also aware that it could succeed, and under a slight chance, that more than one Inheritance may return.”
[ …Then are you aware that breaking down the Pseudo-Realm, would only net you two Tier 8 Domains, instead of two Tier 9 Domains? ]
“Yes. In fact, break them all down all the way to Tier 1 Domains. As for how many can come out, I’ll leave that to Fate… Thanks in advance.” He responded, then ignored it altogether.
He did not understand why it cared so much about any of that, if it did not affect it anyhow. His plan here wasn’t for him, but for his race. So why was it so concerned?
Regardless how stupid his chosen paths were for him, they were ultimately for his people, not for himself.
[ … ]
The Primordial Source did not say anything anymore, and just did as instructed. It could choose not to follow his orders or commands by force, but that was not fun.
It’s other Wills would disagree. They are only purpose was evolution, and nothing more. And the process of taking over the whole world, was 80% almost complete.
The Pseudo-Realms took a bright shade of colors. One decreasing and being absorbed into the Holy Knight Inheritance, while another broke down once more.
It’s size quadrupled again, becoming larger than the area of an entire planet like Earth. But it was not done, from Tier 8 Domain, it became a Tier 6 Domain, with four times the size again.
Then a Tier 4 Domain with sixteen the size, and ultimately, a Tier 1 Domain with a hundred times the area and size of a planet like Earth. They were vast and massive plains.
And there were sixteen Tier 1 Domains, each being something only a lesser god like Flint could personally create, and hide out of the prying eyes of mortals.
Creating one, and residing within it, could protect anyone even if their entire Galaxy was destroyed. As long as it’s coordinates were not found, they would be safe.
Except, if the whole Universe crumbled.
And he had sixteen of such Domains. Of course, one was for Flint. The young man deserved it. Another for his parents, they also deserved it. Another one for him and Juliette.
They also deserved it. One could belong to the Gray House, and the remaining twelve, were all for humanity, and their twelve Strongholds.
[ TING!!! ]
[ Congratulations!! Your attempt has been successful. Your Unique grade Holy Knight Inheritance has evolved ]
[ You have obtained the Legendary grade Knight of Avalon Inheritance ]
[ Congratulations!! Your Fortune is abundant. You have obtained the follow up Legendary grade Great Philosopher Inheritance ]
Damien accepted both new Inheritances. He then gently kicked Flint on the floor, “Get up, stop sleeping. Time isn’t on our side. We still have this labyrinth/dungeon to trek.”
“…”
Flint slowly opened his eyes and sighed. He did not get the rest he desired. Damien then threw an empty Orb of nothingness towards him.
“But first, here’s a little chore for you. Fill that thing with your Universal Law, and Divinity. It’s about time you obtain a Divine Realm of your own.” He said.
“Ah? Wait, how am I supposed to obtain a Divinity?” Flint asked.
“Didn’t you obtain one from The Primordial Source?”
“Wait… Ah, err, oh. I did.”
“What is it?”
“Uhm… God of Vengeance..?”
“Discard it, and sacrifice another Mythical ranked Epithet to obtain two Divinities of your own… Its possible, isn’t it, Primordial?” He asked.
[ …Yes ]
But it wasn’t. To the current Primordial Source, this idea had yet to be thought of. Yet now that it was mentioned, why not? Plus, interacting with Damien was interesting.
Hence with their current Abilities, doing such a thing was not impossible. They were truly, in essence and soul, omnipotent at thus point… Or rather, partially omnipotent.
“There you have it. Do it, and do as I said. In a day, you should be done.” He added, and Flint nodded his head in affirmation.
He did not question what just occurred. He just knew that conversing with The Primordial Source was actually possible.
He them sacrificed the given Divinity, and his Child of Flames Myth-1 Epithet. As for Flame Forger? He had special feelings to that title, and could not discard it.
[ You desire to discard the Divinity, “God of Revenge” and Myth-1 Epithet to obtain Divinities of your nature. Are you sure? ]
“Yes.” He affirmed.
[ Congratulations!! You’ve obtained the two Divinities, “God of Nemesis Flames” and “Hell-borne Wargod” ]
“Oho… Nice Divinities. Suit my character.” Flint exclaimed in excitement. He then chose the first Divinity, and along his Law of Fire, infused them into the empty as Damien instructed.
The process would take time, so Damien did not focus much on Flint. Instead, he collected the remaining fifteen Domains, and just floated within the dark nothingness.
He finally reviewed the definition of his new Mythical ranked Epithet, “King Maker”, while he was at it.
