[Seeing your stats, you mused, ’Interesting, so even if I already have overall stat attributes at the level of an Initial Diamond rank Train Conductor, my power rank is still displayed to that of a Peak Platinum rank.’]

[You decided to inquire about that from the World Will.]

[As the leading Train Conductor of your batch, the World Will still respond to your inquiry. Not to mention, with your previous record of slaying a Wild God’s Avatar, the World Will had a favorable impression of you and your Zenith Train Crew.]

{Power rank is solely based on the base stat attributes of an individual. While your power is indeed that of an Initial Diamond rank and you can fight and even defeat them in a head-on fight, your power rank is still that of a Peak Platinum rank Train Conductor.}

{Due to your high bloodline rank and other factors, you gained stats on top of your base stats. But it won’t affect the calculation of your power rank. Because of that, you can still use items that increase base stats without your additional stats affecting an item’s judgment.}

{It’s the reason why your Spirit attribute was always higher than your power rank, but items like the Heavenly Essence still allowed your Spirit attribute to reach Peak Platinum rank before the additional stats were added.}

{It’s also the reason why dragons at the same power rank have absurd physical bodies, but they are still considered to be at the power rank they were on, instead of their effective combat power.}

[Receiving that reply from the World Will, you asked, ’So, this benefits us in a way that despite our true combat power being higher than our power rank, it doesn’t affect our usage of items lower in grade than our true combat power?’]

{Yes, your power wouldn’t be affected in any way. And besides, power rank isn’t a true determiner of combat power. It’s mostly just the base stats of a living individual and roughly their life level.}

{Because of that, it’s possible for those at weaker power ranks to have the means to fight against powerhouses above their power rank. So even if you encounter weaklings with lower power ranks, if they truly have the means to kill you, just having a higher power rank than them doesn’t guarantee your survival.}

[After thanking the World Will for its response and explanation, its words still reminded you of those weaklings in the Angels of Death Station.]

[There were humans there that possessed the Death Papyrus, and they have the means to kill you. Yet, their power ranks were way lower than yours, and they weren’t much different from normal humans borrowing external power.]

[’After Jade and I upgrade the train to Level 21 and have the means to guard against the Angels of Death’s Death Authority, the Zenith Train Crew should enter the Angels of Death Station and get a Death Papyrus for convenience.’]

[There was a reason why you were so obsessed with getting it.]

[You knew that as you became stronger in this doomsday life simulation, those mortals that the Death Papyrus could kill were no longer a threat to you, and you could kill them with your own power.]

[However, that wasn’t why you wanted the Death Papyrus.]

[In some ways, the Death Papyrus was more useful to you than the Death Authority possessed by the Angels of Death.]

[Although their Death Authority was stronger and could likely deal with some immortal existences, you weren’t that interested in it since it wasn’t an item. On the other hand, the Death Papyrus was an item.]

[’Since the Death Papyrus is an item, then can’t I store it in my system inventory?’]

[’The problem I have at the start of every doomsday life simulation is that my power returns to that of the time I obtained my innate talent, the time when I’m a normal human.’]

[’I couldn’t use my real-world power in the doomsday life simulation. So in some ways, an item that normal humans can use, yet possesses such great lethality, is undoubtedly useful to me.’]

[’The Death Papyrus fills that requirement of mine. As long as I start a doomsday life simulation, I won’t be truly helpless since, aside from eating fairy fruits, blood fruits, and heavenly essences... Wait.’]

[As soon as you thought of those newly added items to your Unlimited Food Creation’s food catalog, you just realized how high your starting point in each subsequent doomsday life simulation became.]

[At first, your plan was to make use of the Death Papyrus while you were a normal human. Pairing it with Hint Prompt, you could just look at your enemy, know their name immediately, and write it down in the Death Papyrus.]

[At that point, while you would be as weak as a normal human, you would have the means to kill anyone as long as they were mortals.]

[However, your previous plans couldn’t keep up with the changes in your growth.]

[You later realized that the reason why you developed such a plan was due to the fairy fruit you obtained, lacking the means of raising your overall power and stats.]

[At most, your fairy fruits only granted you a special ability. Because of that, you still needed to work hard to raise your power level using the doomsday scenario’s specialty power system.]

[Even the Leviathan Tempering Path was abandoned by you due to it taking a lot of time to train and attain, and the fact that it faced the weakness of being weaker on land.]

[’In later doomsday life simulations, can’t I just immediately use Heavenly Essences to raise my power level to Peak Platinum rank?’]
