Chapter 325: The Limitations of Grace

"Strange..."

Hmm, it's just very strange.

Ren Amamiya doesn't recall having acted particularly clownish anywhere; why could this thing be melted in his mouth by him?

Although it feels weird, being able to digest a stage of potion so quickly can't be considered a bad thing.

The only problem is that the gap in potions seems to be just as large.

With the digestion of the Clown potion, Ren Amamiya also clearly felt the Source Castle rapidly aligning with him.

That degree of alignment had improved significantly.

Following that, the permissions available for use from the Source Castle also increased somewhat.

He could now use the Source Castle to grant himself temporary access to Sequence 6 power.

But at the same time, Ren Amamiya also received some subsequent reminders.

"Before one can cross over to Sequence 4 oneself, is it impossible to borrow Sequence 4 power in advance?"

"Starting from Sequence 4, does one begin to manifest part of a Mythical Creature form?"

Resting his chin on his hand and thinking, Ren Amamiya could roughly understand this point.

If low and middle sequences are still considered normal humans, then starting from high sequences, one is half-human, half-god, completely surpassing normal humans in body, spirit, and lifespan.

At high sequences, possessing a Mythical Creature form oneself is the greatest gap between middle and high sequences.

"Once the limit is broken and Sequence 4 power is borrowed in advance, the body will be influenced by the power of the Source, resulting in transformation... hmm?"

"Isn't this a good thing?"

The body beginning to undergo transformation towards Sequence 4 before reaching Sequence 4 shouldn't be considered a bad thing, right?

Yet the Source Castle was warning him not to do this.

Ren Amamiya naturally would not ignore this warning.

The Source Castle certainly wouldn't harm him, and if it really wanted to harm him, not reminding him at all would be best.

But the Source Castle did remind him.

Obviously, this is a choice that is not good for him.

Ren Amamiya shook his head slightly.

"It seems this might not be a good thing for me."

Afterwards, he placed this warning in the most prominent place in his heart and stopped thinking about borrowing Sequence 4 power.

Do not do things that bring no benefit.

Do not casually test unknown things.

He calmed his boiling spirituality and checked his own state.

"It seems there is no effect on myself."

"The gold content of Unrestrained is still increasing."

Ren Amamiya couldn't help but sigh.

If what he obtained at the beginning had not been Unrestrained, but he had jumped directly to the Path of Sequences, whether he could reach this step might be another matter entirely.

Although there are no other Beyonder in this world, with only himself, he really cannot accurately say he can control his own rationality.

Ren Amamiya has a clear understanding of himself.

He is not someone with extremely strong and firm willpower.

If it were a revolutionary from the previous generation, he might have held up, but he is just an ordinary person living in modern times, enjoying the ease of the era.

What willpower does he have?

Growth still requires support; otherwise, he alone simply cannot walk this path.

"Knock, knock, knock!"

The sound of knocking on the door rose.

Ren Amamiya's thoughts were forced to stop; he got up and went to the Xuanguan to open the door.

Opening the door, he saw the very cute black-and-white panda pajamas, which was not very surprising.

"... It's late at night; aren't you sleepy?"

Ren Amamiya looked at this female neighbor with slight helplessness.

"I've been thinking about the studio matter all along; I haven't been able to sleep properly at night."

Yoko Ono also had her own reasons.

Recently, she had been thinking about creating a studio; for her, this was a huge entrepreneurial opportunity.

No longer being a working idol for an artist agency, but becoming her own boss.

"Forget it, come in first."

"Mm~"

Yoko Ono smiled and walked straight into the room.

Very habitually, she closed the door, locked it directly from the inside, and even took a pair of fluffy cotton slippers she had prepared from the shoe cabinet at the Xuanguan.

After putting them on, she followed into the living room.

Arriving at the living room, she immediately plopped down on the sofa.

"Hah... suddenly having to be my own boss."

"For me, it really feels like a dream."

Ren Amamiya glanced at Yoko Ono, who was now completely lazy, and helplessly shook his head.

"If your true fans saw you like this, they would absolutely be scared by your appearance."

Hearing this, Yoko Ono just rolled her eyes at him.

"There's definitely a difference between in front of fans and in daily life..."

"Fans want to see a real idol, but even the most real idol must distinguish between home and the stage."

"Even an idol must be casual at home, otherwise fans will feel it's unreal."

"Besides, I insist on showing fans the side most like myself."

"Otherwise, if the stage self and the real self differ, any problem will easily make fans completely disillusioned."

"That's true."

Ren Amamiya deeply agreed with this.

Once upon a time, those male and female stars who built up their personas so high often collapsed on the issue of personas.

Although building a good persona helps increase one's fans, once the persona collapses, the fans once attracted by the persona will instantly become haters.

So don't build the persona too high; otherwise, it will be bad if you end up unable to save face later."

"Thinking about the studio work so late at night?"

"It's been several days, and you haven't contacted anyone in the circle?"
