Chapter 392

Jūdai did not really want to understand the Supreme King.

This was also a matter of course.

His own understanding was that he was himself, and it had nothing to do with any past life. Regardless of what kind of existence the Supreme King was, the current him was the current him.

Forcing him to understand an existence from the past that had ruled over and invaded others, and forcing him to "understand" this person's inner heart—no matter what, he could not accept it.

"It is not about understanding." Tiancheng Kō shook his head. "Knowing and recognizing is an exploration of his existence."

"I know you don't want to become an evil existence, but knowing the Supreme King does not mean letting you learn from him."

"For example—I know the Fusion Army very well, but I won't learn from the guys in the Fusion Army, and I won't act like them. I will use my knowledge of the Fusion Army to cause destruction in the strongholds and dimensions under the Fusion Army's command."

"Only with sufficient knowledge of them can one know how to respond and deal with them. You understand this, right?"

Put this way, the inner conflict in Jūdai's heart slowly dissipated.

"That makes sense. Just like your Fusion, you not only have to understand yourself, but you also have to understand and fuse with your opponent's monsters." Jūdai pondered, thought for a moment, and nodded.

"Then what is the second suggestion?"

"Learn to use the Supreme King's power."

After understanding comes application?

A logical sequence.

But on this point, Jūdai was even more resistant than before.

When he was a child, due to some strange reason, the children around him would always get injured for no reason, and in serious cases, they would even be bedridden. Since he was young, he had been very resistant to this kind of "self-power."

As for now, he had tentatively blamed the sudden injuries of his friends when he was a child on the Supreme King.

"Power itself is not wrong. The method of application is what matters most." Tiancheng Kō continued, "Whether it is the power of justice or the power of evil, it ultimately depends on the person using it."

"Just like the Fusion Army and our Fusion Society; it's a simple truth, right?"

Using himself as an example again.

Jūdai's expression softened slightly.

"Even within the Lightsworn, there are spirits who are so extremely righteous that they go mad. Even among those Dark World demons, there are righteous guardians. Power is not wrong; what is wrong is the person using it and the way it is used."

On this point, the Light of Destruction that Tiancheng Kō had encountered recently was relatively obvious.

For instance, Light Ruler killed spirits to enhance himself upon obtaining power, Jian became more extreme and impatient when influenced by the Light of Destruction, Zhai Wang was driven to split personalities and nearly developed a second persona by the Light of Destruction, while Ai De, although influenced by the Light of Destruction, did not change himself, only becoming somewhat resigned and lazy.

Listening to Tiancheng Kō's words, Jūdai pondered for a while and also felt it made sense.

If...

If he could master the Supreme King's power, he should be able to protect more people.

And at the very moment this thought arose.

He suddenly remembered that 【him】 he had seen during the duel before.

He said...

Victory is justice.

Justice itself is a fact, but to accomplish justice, one needs power!

If one does not have the power to win, then one can only watch helplessly as friends suffer.

If... if he had awakened the Supreme King's power earlier, before the duel with the Long Shen Wang, he could have protected all the students and not let them be attacked by demons.

Many thoughts flashed through Jūdai's mind, but he did not speak, and there was no expression on his face.

Tiancheng Kō could not guess what he was thinking either.

In reality, neither of these two suggestions was difficult, nor were they particularly wise.

These two suggestions were just ordinary proposals for discussion.

The one who truly decides is always Jūdai.

Honestly, ever since encountering the demons of the Dark World, Tiancheng Kō had been thinking about how to handle Jūdai's future.

Although most of the "plot" in this world was different from the original work in Tiancheng Kō's memory, the basic logic of some characters had not changed.

Jūdai is the reincarnation of the Supreme King; this point is correct.

In this way, Jūdai's attitude toward himself, toward the Supreme King, toward Yubel, and toward everyone else became the very thing he truly needed to change and be tested on.

But these things were not something Tiancheng Kō could change or manage himself.

First, he had no right to manage other people's "personal" affairs. Second, how many times could he manage it if he did it once?

He could come out to help Jūdai when Jūdai was on the verge of collapse, but what about after that?

Tiancheng Kō had his own things to do, and Jūdai had his own life and adventures.

Therefore, after thinking it over, all Tiancheng Kō could do for Jūdai was to help him think of ideas and provide him with physical and dueling assistance.

Otherwise, if Yubel stayed holed up at the threshold and didn't come out, waiting until he left and until he went to the S-Dimension to start causing trouble, then he would truly be beyond his reach and unable to do anything.

He still wanted to collect Fusion, wanted to go find trouble for the Luodan, wanted to find the proof of the three Spellcaster Sages, and wanted to go to the Spellcaster's realm.

If Jūdai could do it himself and figure everything out on his own, then even if Yubel appeared, even if Yubel had the enhancement of the Light of Destruction, what could it do?

He admitted that Yubel in the original work was arguably the strongest spirit in GX; even in soul form, it could lift its hand and teleport an entire island of humans directly to another dimension, control others, create illusions, and was almost omnipotent, able to do whatever it wanted.

But what it ultimately wanted to use was still the power derived from the Supreme King, and what it wanted to use was still 【Super Polymerization】.

Jūdai crossed his arms.

He recalled what he had seen and heard today, recalled the duel with the Long Shen Wang today, and recalled what the Lightsworn had said to him...

"If it's like this, then it's also acceptable." Jūdai was convinced.

"But, what should I do?" Jūdai looked at Tiancheng Kō. "I haven't heard anything about the Supreme King at all."

"Yeah..." Jim nodded from the side. "Student Tiancheng, even if Jūdai wants to understand, there's no way to understand the Supreme King, right?"

Books?

Obviously, the spirits did not have that kind of record of the Supreme King.

Ask the demons of the Dark World? They would definitely be biased toward the Supreme King, not completely truthful, and not objective.

And the power was even more baffling.

Even if one wanted to obtain the Supreme King's power, how should one go about it?

Jūdai had only awakened a portion of the power now, and didn't even know how to control it deeply.

"Hehe." Seeing Jūdai's curious look, Tiancheng Kō finally took out the thing he had been learning and researching during this period.

A mirror.

"Looking in a mirror, that's useless, right?" Misawa scratched the back of his head in confusion.

"No, this is not a 【mirror】; this is something I made using alchemy."

What, what?

How did it suddenly turn into alchemy?

Jim looked at O'Brien in a daze, and O'Brien was also full of confusion.

During this time, Tiancheng Kō had been learning, researching, and trying to find a way to extract the "Fusion Curse Creature - Dark" from the Chaos Phantom Amitayle.

Although there was no authentic result until now.

But there were plenty of by-products from the research during this time.

Using this mirror, one could talk to their inner heart!

In other words... an alchemical product that "extracts and manifests the other consciousness within a person's heart"!
