1088 Jealousy 1 (1/2)
That said, when he thought about it, it wasn't too shocking. Who didn't want a second chance at life?
As individuals from poorer backgrounds, seven of the eleven of them died tragic deaths far too early. Three of them died while searching for opportunities. And one died investigating the world outside of the 100 quadrants.
Their stories almost sounded like rehashed versions of each other, each more depressing than the last. The truth of the matter was that having appropriate backing in the martial world was almost more important than having great talent.
When talented youths appeared from poor backgrounds, it was often just a matter of time before they died at the hands of larger clans they offended while following their martial path. The number of geniuses who died like this were simply innumerable.
Those that didn't die this way died by taking risks those richer geniuses didn't have to take. If they didn't risk their lives entering forbidden regions, how would they make up the gap in their backgrounds?
Dyon soon found out that they all had titles like the Archer did. Legolas had told Dyon that he earned the title of Prince of Archery. At the time, Dyon think much of it until the other spirits began telling him their own titles. Dyon even found out that his master's name was also a title 'White Mother'.
Titles weren't a new concept to Dyon. For example, others referred to him as God Sacharro. This in itself was a Title.
It turned out that in the Martial World, different Titles came with it various strengths and legacies. The 'White Mother' Title was only capable of being bestowed by the Celestial Beast Clans. But, the Title that Legolas and the other spirits had were given to them by the Epistemic Tower.
Dyon didn't want to think too much about what these Titles meant and what they represented now since the opportunity to earn them were on the celestial floors, something still too far away from him. But, he still noted the Titles of these spirits.
Prince of War, Battle Prince, Princess of the Skies, Flame Prince, Ice Princess, Fist King, Princess of Strategy, Earth Prince, Princess of Beauty, Princess of Melody, and Forging Prince.
From what Dyon could understand, many people could hold a Prince or Princess title. But, the number of Kings was limited, because unlike the Prince and Princess titles which could be earned the moment an expert met the requirements, the King title could only be taken by defeating someone who held the title. This made the Fist King likely the most impressive of them all.
