# Chapter 2: The Change of the Inherent World
"Divine Calamity Mist."
Standing on a hill, that giant—who was already very famous among the survivors because of his actions of giving offerings in exchange for protection—immediately gained the worship of the vast majority of the people.
And while the survivors of the Grandia World were struggling to survive in the new world, the warrior concealed his identity and secretly found the more than thirty children to whom he had once granted his inheritance. Back when he was trying to break through to the Legendary realm and distinguish the difference between the Steel Force of the two worlds, he had these young people cultivate a special breathing technique he had created. At Joshua's level, the breathing technique he created was no less than the inheritances of the major powers; at most, the details needed improvement. But without anyone to teach them, problems with these details would also cause many side effects and aftereffects.
After all, these were the first batch of 'disciples' the warrior had personally taken in. He couldn't just watch them all 'deviate from the right path' one by one. So Joshua brought this group of children back to the Mycroft Continent, preparing to take them to his own territory and teach them slowly alongside the students of Winterfell Academy. It just so happened that there was a great shortage of students in the combat department. That Gold-rank tribal Berserker who had defected to the warrior often complained about having too few students and not enough people to drill.
And just as Joshua returned to the Mycroft Continent, the dragon-winged girl, Shirea, silently took off her robe and went to the Carlis World.
Under Joshua's completely undisguised narration, she had come to know all the truth, understood the cause and effect of history, and the reasons for everything. The origin girl of the Grandia World understood it all, but she couldn't accept it. So she gave up her identity as the inheritor of the Sage, refused to stay on the Mycroft Continent, and decided to go with her own people to the new world to build a new home.
This was a very natural thing. Neither Pope Igor nor Joshua would refuse. After Shirea faced the Sage's inheritance artifacts and swore an oath of secrecy, she passed through the space-time passage to the Carlis World, utterly resolute, without looking back.
As for the inheritance artifact she called the [Origin Robe], it was handed over to the old Pope and Joshua to find the next inheritor. Although the secret of the First Flame had been found, the Sage's inheritance had not been fully developed. Even the warrior couldn't find all the secrets within the Azure Orb, let alone the other three artifacts?
Regarding the selection of inheritors, Joshua said he would entrust it entirely to Igor. And the old Pope naturally had some selfishness. Within the three months after Joshua's return, he had been searching for suitable candidates within the Church, testing whether they could resonate with the robe. Only if there was no suitable candidate within the Church would Igor try others.
As for the warrior, after bringing back those children, he had been recuperating in the Church the whole time.
This journey to the other world to find the final inheritance artifact and pass on the First Flame had almost burned Joshua out completely. The Soulflame King he had transformed into at the end placed the survivors of the Grandia World in the Carlis World and ignited the flames of this world of ashes. Although the act seemed magnificent and awe-inspiring, in reality, without the help of the Sage's remaining power, he would have long since been unable to hold on halfway through and would have been completely assimilated by the flames.
And the Legendary realm that Joshua had just broken through was actually a huge bottomless pit.
Just as the warrior had described, before the Legendary realm, all cultivators—whether through magical meditation or the breathing of Battle Qi—were nurturing an 'egg' of a great existence within their own bodies. This egg, representing the most perfect and powerful form of the self, changed with the realm of the holder's strength. The Gold realm was its first fetal movement, the Ultimate realm made it reveal its preliminary form, and the Legendary realm was when it completely broke out of its shell.
But breaking out of the shell didn't mean it was fully formed. The 'Steel Body' that the warrior had shaped for himself—that is, an indestructible body composed entirely of pure Steel Force—had only been transformed by thirteen percent in three months. This was the case for all Legendary experts; they needed a long period of recuperation.
This was also proof of the Legendary low-rank. The Legendary mid-rank, naturally, was the complete completion of all transformations.
Thinking of this, Joshua couldn't help but look at the system.
At this time, the system, for unknown reasons, had undergone great changes. It would frequently show missing parts and errors, flickering rapidly as if about to disappear. However, the character card section was still relatively stable, with no missing information.
