Chapter 368: The Nature of Angels and the Challenges Beyond
The portrayal of angels within Earth's folklore, with their wings, raw power, invincibility, and unwavering obedience, mirrored perfectly the nature of Sung Jin-Woo's angels and dark angels. These celestial beings, born of light and darkness alike, were not mere servants; they were powerful entities unto themselves. Their strength was unrivaled, their ability to remain unseen and invincible making them formidable guardians and loyal subjects.
Like the angels of Earth's myths, Sung Jin-Woo's angels possessed abilities far beyond the mortal understanding. Their obedience to him was unwavering, and their powers made them capable of transcending the laws of reality to some extent. Invisibility allowed them to move unseen, and invincibility made them nearly unstoppable. They were extensions of Sung Jin-Woo's will, carrying out his commands across the realms and enforcing his dominion.
For most beings across the multiverse, these angels—whether from light or darkness—remained the epitome of strength. Few could rival their power, and even fewer could contend with their divine essence. To the inhabitants of the realms, these celestial beings were often seen as the ultimate beings of authority, wielding powers that could reshape existence itself.
However, despite their immense power, there was still a gap in their capacity to govern the entire multiverse. Sung Jin-Woo's angels, though immensely powerful, were not invulnerable to all things. There existed entities that surpassed even them, beings that dwelled outside the multiverse itself. The True Absolute One, as Sung Jin-Woo had evolved into, was on the brink of godhood, but he was not the only god. The multiverse, though vast, was not singular in its divine entities.
The Challenges Beyond the Multiverse
Sung Jin-Woo may have ascended to an unparalleled level of power, but even with his dominance, there remained forces outside the multiverse that challenged him. These forces were not bound by the laws of the multiverse, and thus, the realm of Sung Jin-Woo's creation and dominion was not impervious to their influence. Entities of unimaginable power, beyond even the bounds of this reality, could still threaten the peace and balance within his domain.
In this regard, Sung Jin-Woo's angels and dark angels were not enough to secure his reign against all foes. They were his elite forces, his vanguard against the ordinary, but they were still limited. They were beings of divine essence, but they were still part of a system governed by rules and laws. When faced with entities beyond those rules, they could only do so much.
The Necessity of Reinforcements
As the ruler of this multiverse, Sung Jin-Woo needed more than just his celestial armies. The challenges outside the realms required reinforcements to ensure his dominance and protect the vast multiverse he governed. Though his angels and dark angels were powerful, they were only part of the greater picture. The true scope of governance required strength on all fronts.
The Twelve Divine Beings, now reduced to eleven after Sung Jin-Woo's ascension, remained critical to the governance of the realms. Each of them, a divine entity in their own right, brought something irreplaceable to the table. They governed their respective domains with the power and influence that only beings of their caliber could command. Their roles were indispensable, and their loyalty was essential for Sung Jin-Woo to maintain his absolute dominion.
The Shadow Lords, Heavenly Soldiers, Apostles of God, and the countless divine warriors were also crucial in the grand design of Sung Jin-Woo's reign. These beings were vital to the day-to-day functioning of the realms—whether it be overseeing the multitude of worlds, enforcing divine laws, or ensuring that no realm fell into chaos. Their strength, loyalty, and power were still needed to maintain order.
The multiverse was vast, and the threats beyond it were numerous. Sung Jin-Woo, for all his immense power, could not govern every facet of existence alone. The creation of his angels, their dark counterparts, and his divine legions were only a portion of the equation. The forces of the outside were still a looming threat—beings whose power could challenge even the might of Sung Jin-Woo himself.
The True Role of the Angels and Dark Angels
The angels, both light and dark, served as extensions of Sung Jin-Woo's will. Their role was not just to govern and protect the realms but to expand his reach into the multiverse. They were his eyes and ears, his forces of enforcement, and his representatives among the countless realms. They served not only as warriors but also as spiritual guides, carrying out his divine decrees and ensuring that his influence reached the furthest corners of existence.
But in the grand scheme of things, Sung Jin-Woo understood that he could not rest on the laurels of his angels alone. He needed the strength of all his divine beings, and together, they would form the foundations of his empire. For no matter how great his powers grew, the task of maintaining and governing the multiverse would always require more than just his will. It would require his angels, his divine beings, and those who stood at his side—forever loyal and forever prepared for the challenges to come.
As he stood at the pinnacle of power, Sung Jin-Woo's journey was far from over. The multiverse was vast, but it was not the only domain that required his attention. The forces outside the multiverse were growing, and his reign would need more than just the invincible angels to withstand the challenges to come. His role as the True Absolute One was not just one of power—it was a role of responsibility, and with that responsibility came the need for ever-increasing strength and vigilance.
