Genetic Ascension novel Chapter 1909

Chapter 1909: Boldness

Sylas had never seen the Demi-God Plane, but he had seen a God, and he understood Runes better than almost anyone in the Mortal Realms.

There were perhaps some B-tier and A-tier Rune Masters with a better holistic understanding than he had, as they had simply seen more, but Sylas imagined that by now, even such people were rare.

That was all to say that Sylas was sure he could tell the difference between Demi-God and Mortal Runes at a single glance, especially since he had seen God Runes.

The fundamental difference between these Runes, though, was in the quality of Aether they called forth. However, that didn't come down to the Strokes or even how well one drew the Runes. Instead, it came down to the strength of Will.

Did you have a Mortal Will, a Demi-God Will, or a God Will? If you had a God Will, then when you drew Runes, you would form God Runes. It was as simple as that.

Well, as simple as you could make such a complicated topic, that is.

Sylas didn't believe that there were even many Gods who had as much skill as he did in drawing F-tier Runes. Those who had reached his level were almost certainly the top 1% of the 1%.

When it came to Demi-Gods, there might not be a single one.

And yet, in an individual contest of Rune drawing, they would probably still be his betters purely because of their Wills and the amount of access that gave them.

That was, of course, assuming one final matter: that there were Demi-God or God energies to pull on in the first place.

If they descended down to the Mortal Realms, it didn't matter what their Will level was at; they would at best be able to match Sylas, with maybe a slight edge.

This slight edge would come from the fact that a Demi-God Will would have to make less effort to pull on Mortal Will. Meaning, for every Rune they drew, they would use less energy than Sylas would, and therein lay the division.

However, if Sylas ascended to a Demi-God World... that would be a completely different matter entirely.

He would be at a disadvantage until he truly became a Demi-God himself.

Regardless, Sylas knew exactly what this place was the moment he started to observe it because he could feel Runes that he couldn't freely control, but they weren't so great that they were at the level of a God.

All of this said... Sylas wasn't helpless.

With a raise of his hand, the Life Seal appeared before Sylas, and his gaze flickered.

It was just as he expected. The Reaper Sealwright Profession didn't have such limitations, and neither did any of his other Professions.

His Professions functioned based on the system, and no matter where he was, the system would react in kind to help him execute his skills.

There was no limitation of Mortal, Demi-God, or God on his Seals. Meaning...

'I can control Demi-God and God-level Runes through my Professions so long as I do it just right.'
