Chapter 440: We Are No Inferior to Them

Words like "God" are not applicable in ordinary circumstances; yet the mere use of the word "God" proves something's extraordinary nature.

The term "Demigod" speaks volumes. Literally understood, it means half has reached the realm of the gods.

The entire Fujiwara family listened quietly; this information was truly enough to terrify them.

"Do not think that because the power Kaguya and the others received was fast-tracked, it comes without cost. Every gift in this world has a price tag; since they enjoyed the fast track, they must also accept the limitation of a raised ceiling."

"Demigod is the restriction they received for accepting the fast track. It does not mean their achievements can only stagnate at the Demigod position, but that after reaching Demigod, the effort and time required for them to advance further will be unimaginably long."

No power truly has the concept of "fast-tracking"; what can be fast-tracked is merely trading the ceiling to accelerate the speed of growth.

Ren Amamiya's explanation made Chika Fujiwara nod involuntarily.

"Of course, under ordinary circumstances, even reaching the level of Demigod is an extremely difficult matter. Kaguya and the others having the qualification to enter the realm of Demigods can be considered a 20 chance provided by their power system; otherwise, where would ordinary girls get the chance to enter the realm of gods?"

Even if the ceiling is severely restricted, Demigod is still a height ordinary people cannot imagine.

From Ren Amamiya's perspective, it is a severe restriction, but in the eyes of others, Demigod is already the highest standard.

Because without opportunity and luck, ordinary people, even if they exhaust their entire lives, cannot even touch the mysterious edges, let alone reach Demigod.

Chika Fujiwara could not help but ask:

"What about us?"

"The Path of Sequences we walk has another name: The Path of the Gods."

Upon the appearance of the term "Path of the Gods," everyone in the Fujiwara family temporarily stopped breathing.

"The Path of Sequences has 22 paths to godhood; each path corresponds to a True God's status. It can be said that any single road has the qualification to become a god. However, this road is also clearly a very difficult and narrow one."

"Therefore, our situation is similar to Kaguya and the others. Their abilities at this stage are stronger than ours, but after reaching the realm of Demigods, the difficulty for them to continue improving is several times, or even dozens of times, that of ours."

"As for whether our abilities are inferior to Kaguya and the others, I can only say each has its own advantages. However, in the Middle Sequences, once our extraordinary abilities begin to increase and our methods begin to multiply, we are actually no longer weaker than anyone."

"The methods a Sequence 9 Spectator and a Sequence 8 Mind Reader can employ are not many, but once you enter the Middle Sequence of Sequence 7 Psychotherapist, the methods you can employ increase."

"Instilling panic in a group, detonating the madness of someone's inner emotions, arranging an individual's inner heart, psychological suggestion to control an individual's thoughts, soothing and calming frantic and irritable emotions, and telepathy to converse with an individual's mental body through rituals."

"So, Fujiwara, I ask you, do you think these extraordinary abilities are inferior to Kaguya and the others?"

Chika Fujiwara took a deep breath.

"No."

According to what Ren Amamiya said, as long as one reaches the Middle Sequence, the methods available will increase. Although it sounds like her ability is just a support, lacking the combat capability of Kaguya, the abilities she can actually employ are already more than Kaguya's.

Kaguya's methods are too direct, while she can always stand in the background through psychological control, which is something Kaguya cannot do.

"So, do not worry too much about the insufficiency of abilities at this stage; just try your best to act the part of a Spectator. If you strive according to the Acting Method I mentioned before, you can consider promoting to Sequence 8 in a month or two."

"If you can act the part of a Spectator even better, then your promotion speed should be faster."

Having received the answer, Chika Fujiwara glanced proudly at her sister, who was still pouting.

"Mm, I understand. Sorry for the trouble, Ren Amamiya."

"It's nothing. If your family is listening, it is best for them to clearly know that the Path of Sequences is not easy to walk; I suspect your situation might not be an isolated case. Perhaps my situation is the isolated one."

"Rest assured, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Chika Fujiwara then looked at her own sister with a slight air of pride.

"How about it, Moye, did you hear that?"

"My methods are not many right now, but that does not mean my future development will be worse than Kaguya's."

Yet after the pride, she also began to feel a headache.

"Then do I really have to become a psychotherapist in the future? A student becoming a psychotherapist seems inappropriate, doesn't it?"

Hearing her daughter's worry, Wan Sui Fujiwara only felt that this daughter's concern was truly unnecessary.

"You are still at the lowest level; why are you worrying about this problem?"

"Chika, when you truly reach that stage, your father and I can arrange a civil servant-level psychological consultation for you; at that time, you will have plenty of opportunities to become a psychotherapist. However, before that, you should first handle your current matters well."

As a diplomatic official, she has the right to do so, and her husband has even greater such rights.

If Chika truly had such a need, the couple could easily make a series of arrangements for Chika, completely ensuring the conditions for Chika to be a good psychotherapist.

However, there is no need to consider it now; at least Chika has not yet reached that stage.

Spectator and Mind Reader obviously do not require as much trouble to act out as a psychotherapist does.

After finishing speaking to Chika, Wan Sui Fujiwara also let out a sigh of relief; at this moment, she was also enduring the shock of the word "Demigod."

"Demigod... I never expected our daughter to have such an opportunity."

"It is not just our daughter; many other girls also have such an opportunity."

As Wan Sui Fujiwara spoke, she fixed her gaze on Chika.

"So, that boy is the key, right?"

Wan Sui Fujiwara immediately pinpointed the focus and the key.

The sole reason her daughter has such an opportunity lies in the boy who just contacted her daughter.

Although the method is unknown, the reason now seems quite clear.

"Huh? What are you talking about, Mom?"
