Chapter 975 -300 Opposing Nature_3
Leonard Churchill was indeed interested in this Outer God of Plague as well.
But he still felt it was better not to get infected.
Werewolf form was just ferocious, whereas the Toad was… truly ugly.
Aragon looked at Leonard’s odd expression and, despite being unable to guess what he was thinking, added a reminder, “Regarding the relics, I don’t know much either. But this relic was once a Secret Tomb of the Immortal Aegis Family of the White Family, the God Stealers. If there are descendants of the White Family on the East Continent, asking them may yield some insight.”
Leonard asked about a term he didn’t understand, “Immortal Aegis Secret Tomb?”
Aragon said, “Yes. The God Stealer Sequence has always been mysterious, and the succession has been broken in the Southern Continent. I’m not very clear on the specifics myself.”
“…”
Listening, Leonard also came to a realization.
….
Looking at it now, forcibly rescuing Aragon seemed completely impossible.
In this camp, there were at least two or three from the Sixth Tier, and countless Dragon-blooded Card Masters from the fifth and sixth tiers. It seemed that even if all the high combat power from the East Wilderness combined, they would still have no chance of success.
The only thing that could be used to their advantage was the Plague Marsh itself.
Just like with the previous Alternate Dimension, using the dangerous environment to create some opportunities.
Leonard told Aragon about some plans he had deduced previously, which Aragon had also considered.
But without a suitable opportunity in sight, they could only wait for the right moment.
After chatting for a while, Leonard discovered that the hiding effect of his shadow was even better than he had anticipated.
The sentries changed, but no anomaly was detected.
Since he hadn’t been discovered, Leonard didn’t waste the opportunity and chatted a bit more.
At that moment, he also posed a question he had been quite curious about, “Mr. Aragon, do you know the Demon God’s Mysterious Technique called ‘Celestial Godfall’?”
“Did Alice tell you?”
Aragon wasn’t surprised when he heard this, as Demon God Secret Skill was something anyone would be curious about.
He seemed to know why Leonard was asking and followed up with, “Are you curious why I, from the Hero Sequence, know this Catastrophe Sequence’s Demon God Forbidden Skill?”
Leonard: “Yes.”
Aragon smiled mysteriously, “This is a domain that only top-tier card masters will encounter… In fact, it’s somewhat related to the pattern of war I mentioned to you before.”
Leonard: “Oh?”
Even with all the knowledge of Extraordinary Power he had, Leonard couldn’t understand the connection between the two.
This was completely out of his area of expertise.
Aragon continued leisurely, “Actually, the Hero Sequence has its own Demon God Secret Skill. But it has always been a ‘forbidden technique’ of the Taron Royal Family. Aside from the royal members, no one can learn it.”
Leonard was puzzled and asked, “The royal family wanted to forbid the Secret Skill of the Hero Sequence?”
So it wasn’t a lost legacy, but rather one that was prohibited.
That reminder sparked a thought in him instantly.
If it was forbidden by the royal family, then surely the Secret Skill must affect the rule of kingship.
Aragon’s next answer confirmed his thought. “You might have guessed… the ruling class has never liked the emergence of ‘heroes.’
Leonard understood that heroes represented the will of the people, which could affect the authority of the ruling class.
Aragon then asked, “Do you know what the end of the path for the ‘Hero’ is? I’m not talking about the Professional Sequence, but the path of one’s life.”
“???”
Of course, Leonard had no idea.
As they reached this point, Aragon’s voice took on a deeply meaningful tone, “If you’re familiar with the patterns of history… you should know that, in times of chaos, ‘heroes’ often emerge. They are adored and respected by the people and possess formidable combat power, sometimes even bringing an end to the chaos… This is a Life Pattern quite suitable for a King. In fact, that’s how it has been—the first kings of all dynasties in history are, over ninety percent of the time, people with a hero fate…”
Hearing this, Leonard had an epiphany.
That was indeed the case!
Those with a hero fate need not necessarily be from the Hero Sequence; but card masters of the Hero Sequence certainly have a hero fate.’
The emergence of a “hero” was something kings would wrestle with.
Aragon continued, “Therefore, no matter the dynasty, almost all heroes have a predetermined end… Either they become rulers themselves, retreat from the world, or are killed by those in power…”
“…”
Leonard now fully understood.
No wonder the Kingdom of Augustus would seal away the Secret Skill of this Sequence, it all made sense now.
Aragon slowly revealed some ancient secrets that common people could never know, “I also don’t know what the exclusive Demon God Secret Skill of the Hero Sequence is called. But it is said that those who cultivate this exclusive Secret Skill to the pinnacle will assume an angelic form. At the end of the Taren Dynasty, there once appeared a God Tier ‘Guardian Angel’, who was a top-tier hero cultivated by the Taron Royal Family…”
“An angel?”
Leonard found the beginning of the statement rather remote, as the Secret Skill seemed far beyond his reach.
But upon hearing the latter part, he inexplicably felt a sense of familiarity.
An angel?
Could it be the Weeping Angel, who was killed by Tracy Garcia’s ancestors and sealed everywhere?
No wonder Leonard felt so strangely, for at this moment the soul of that angel still resided within him!
So this is the Hero Sequence?
For a moment, Leonard’s mind seemed to connect all related fragments and clues together.
Now that the remnants of the angel had mostly been unsealed, he believed that the Demon God Secret Skill would see the light of day again in the future.
However, you still haven’t explained, why you, a hero, know the Catastrophe Sequence’s Secret Skill?
Leonard hadn’t even asked the question out loud.
Yet Aragon had already answered, “Do you know how heroes come to be? Or rather, under what circumstances are heroes born?”
The previous comments were just a prelude; now came the crux of the matter.
Listening, Leonard felt as if a bright light flashed through his thoughts.
He then realized that his previous line of thinking had been rigid, overlooking some critical issues.
A hero is not just a Professional Sequence.
Take Catherine Carter, for instance, whose hero fate was formed later in life.
Or rather, it’s a ‘title’ that requires certain conditions to manifest.
As he pondered this, Aragon slowly said, “I like an old saying: ‘Times create heroes.’
“…”
Upon hearing this, Leonard seemed to understand something.
He also understood why Aragon had mentioned before that heroes were related to war.
…
“Heroes are always born from suffering, despair, and catastrophe. A stable, peaceful, and orderly world doesn’t need heroes, nor will it have them…”
“Just as the definition of happiness is always granted by suffering. Those who have never experienced darkness will never be grateful for the light.”
“If there is enough suffering, and people can survive it… then ‘heroes’ will inevitably arise.”
“Therefore, in a certain sense, Hero and Catastrophe are opposites, yet coexist.”
“This is also why I can master and comprehend ‘Celestial Godfall,’ a Demon God’s Mysterious Technique from the Catastrophe Sequence. Because I deeply understand catastrophe…”
“‘Antithesis’ is a perception that can only be touched upon in the realm of the highest tier transcendents, and it’s also a Universe Law. Like light and dark, water and fire, war and peace, healing and plague, chaos and order… the Fifty-two Demon God Sequence possess Transcendental abilities that comprehend Universe Law, and of course, there will be opposition and coexistence…”
“…”
Aragon’s words opened a new door to the world for Leonard.

At this moment, the world in his eyes seemed to come full circle.
With the opposition of light and dark, everything began to have cause and effect.
Thinking along these lines, many of the fifty-two Demonic God Secret Skills indeed were opposing.
If one’s understanding of a set of laws was deep enough, then naturally, the understanding of the opposing laws would also come with greater ease.
“So that’s how it is…”
Hence, after one realization led to another, Leonard finally understood the War Law he had observed in the Alternate Dimension.
Heroes are born from suffering.
Therefore, in war, other things can also be born.
War, plague, famine, brutality, fear…
These incomprehensible Universe Laws, because of the carrier “war,” manifest outwardly, allowing people to easily touch and comprehend them.
War is suffering for the commoner;
but for some people, it’s a pathway to understanding Extraordinary Power, a means to their end, a rite of passage to Transcendence!
No wonder the situation in “Waren City Rebel Camp” during the slave uprising became increasingly bizarre; no wonder they plotted to kill hundreds of thousands, no wonder…
