Winter Snow Thousand Cat Lanterns

The vast Dream Sea, atop layers of miracles and magnificence, where Transcendents walk the ascendant path guided by their ultimate longings as if by beacons.
The supreme beings wielded power, their greatness shining in all directions, ascending to divinity.
But even deities were not the ultimate. They too struggled for greater perfection and ideals, endlessly, within the Void Origin, above the Dream Sea.
"So... Your Majesty Ybur, as the most powerful Slime in history, what exactly drives you to become stronger?"
Many years later, when faced with the question from a Heavenly envoy, Ybur, who by then stood at the zenith of the Dream Realm as the "World Devourer," recalled the afternoon just after his birth when the Creator had stuffed him down a golden toilet and flushed him into the sewers in one go...
After a long silence, he spoke with a heavy tone:
"It's the toilet. The golden toilet."
The envoy: "???"

I, a Slime, have also dreamed of becoming a great Demon King!

Ybur fell silent for a long while before finally letting out a dejected sigh.


Ruby, of course, was not aware of the turmoil inside Ybur's heart, but still noticed the sudden drop in Ybur's mood and couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"


The Gnoll beside them said with a frightened tone: "It must be the tea that's gone bad woof! I told you we can't drink such weird and crooked tea woof woof!"


Ruby replied, both annoyed and amused: "None of your business!"


"I'm okay," Ybur said: "I was just thinking that we Shapeshifters are always freeloading here and there, and now we've actually freeloaded our way onto the Way of the Heavenly Self..."


Ruby laughed: "What's the big deal? The ten great paths all originate from the same source, it's all about you in me, and me in you, just mutual learning and referencing."
