Chapter 226: King’s Decree And Execution
[Your fourth spirit avatar ability, the King’s Decree, had greatly improved the effects of World Order, your core spirit avatar ability.]
[Not only did it improve its effects, but it could even make it so that you and your "subjects", which you could interpret freely as either your allies or those whom you wanted to exclude from the effects of World Order, would be immune to it.]
[Although it somehow worked similarly to World Order and even existed to complement it, you didn’t mind since the spirit avatar ability that you mostly used from Order King was mainly World Order.]
[To have the means to upgrade and elevate its effects was a wet dream to you. Now that you could elevate its effects and make it absolute, you wouldn’t be able to worry about targets that were immune to rule-based abilities.]
[Even if they were somehow immune to World Order, their rule-based immunity would be overridden by King’s Decree. To be immune to King’s Decree, they would have to possess stronger immunity to the point they could be immune to rule-based abilities that were "absolute".]
[If someone possessed such capabilities, you would just clap your hands and applaud them for being outrageously powerful. After all, King’s Decree made it so that even the World Order could affect those who were stronger than you or Order King.]
[After being satisfied with your fourth spirit avatar ability, you checked the description of your fifth spirit avatar ability, Execution.]
{Execution: Any target that repeatedly violates Order King’s laws, resists his authority, or accumulates sufficient "guilt" within his domain may be marked for execution. Once judged, Order King may unleash a sovereign strike that ignores conventional defenses and directly damages the target according to the severity of their violations.}
[Undoubtedly, the addition of Execution in Order King’s spirit avatar ability set allowed you to possess a finisher.]
[For those who were capable of ignoring World Order due to possessing rule-based ability immunity or being stronger than you, not only could you resort to using King’s Decree, but even their "defiance" would mark their doom.] 𝕗𝗿𝕖𝐞𝐰𝗲𝕓𝐧𝕠𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝐨𝚖
[As long as enough "guilt", then it could deal damage in a way that bypassed conventional defenses. In other words, it was an attack that dealt "true damage".]
[From what you had known, Order King accumulating sufficient "judgment" on the target scaled on the number of violated rules, resistance to decrees, amount of hostility shown, and how much authority Order King has established.]
[It wasn’t an instant death ability per se, but its way of dealing accumulated damage that could bypass almost all defenses meant that it worked similarly. The amount of damage dealt was based on the severity of their violation.]
[As long as Order King obtained sufficient judgment on the target, then they were as good as dead. However, abilities that could transfer or share damage would work, as it wasn’t considered as "conventional defense".]
[But faced with such a problem, it was easy to fix, as you merely needed to use World Order to make it so that Execution could bypass that as well. If that wasn’t enough, King’s Decree could elevate that World Order and make it absolute.]
[The spirit avatar ability set of Order King complemented each other.]
[It also mirrored how kingdoms historically worked: Laws are created (World Order), Rights are revoked (Royal Confiscation), Criminals are banished (Exile), Royal decrees override all (King’s Decree), and Execution enforces authority (Execute).]
[With how the Divine Soul Essence improved the spirit avatar grade of Order King and even its existing spirit avatar abilities, you no longer felt that the low grade of Order King holding you back.]
[With your current capabilities, you believed that even against Titan rank powerhouses, you could still defeat them as long as they didn’t have an absurd amount of rule-based abilities.]
[’Powerhouses at Mythril rank and Titan rank don’t have much difference aside from the latter being stronger than the former. It’s unlike the difference between Diamond rank powerhouses and Crystal rank powerhouses, as the latter has improved life level, which made it much more difficult to bridge the gap of power.’]
[’It’s also similar to the gap between Gold rank and Platinum rank, as the first increase in life level is at Platinum rank, followed by Crystal rank.’]
[’The third one is at Aether rank, which literally requires one to possess an Authority to even advance to it. It wasn’t something that could be achieved with just stat attributes alone.’]
[’For the advancement to Aether rank, Jade, Morvane, and I wouldn’t have such worries since we already possessed our own authorities. However, Scarlet, Astraea, and Old MacDonald are different, as they haven’t possessed an authority of their own.’]
[’But if I’m not mistaken, special identities like Old MacDonald’s special identity as The Rancher could substitute for the lack of authority. After all, in a way, special identities possessed authority as well, but in the form of a persona.]
[’So, the only ones left are Scarlet and Astraea. I’ll have to find a way for both of them to acquire an authority or else they’d be stuck at Peak Titan rank when the time came in the future.’]
[Thinking of this, you decided to inform Jade about that and let her choose station worlds that gave the opportunity to comprehend an authority.]
[The earlier that Scarlet and Astraea comprehended an authority, the more convenient it would be for your plans for everyone in your train crew to become an Aether rank powerhouse.]
[Aside from the improvement of your spirit avatar, you’ve also used the Divine Soul Essence to increase your Spirit attribute to Peak Mythril rank.]
[However, due to the Spirit attribute improvement you’ve obtained from being an Arch Human, achieving Fairy Fruit Awakening, as well as possessing a Late Mythril-grade spirit avatar, the stat boosts were more than enough to allow your Spirit attribute to reach Initial Titan rank.]
[With your other stat attributes being boosted to Peak Mythril rank due to your bloodline as an Arch Human, it was safe to say that you were unmatched within any stages of Mythril rank!]
