Upon hearing that answer, Loren, who had been leaning with his eyes closed on the shore of the hot spring lake, slightly opened his eyes.

He stared at the wisps of steam rising before him and softly murmured in his heart,

"So, my path to Demigod only requires nurturing these three aspects to their extremes?"

One second later.

That familiar, reliable, deep voice sounded in his ear again.

"Yes, Mr. Loren."

"That is the meaning of the Legendary tier, to excavate your own limits."

"Successfully nurturing one of these aspects is called Legendary — Lower Stage."

"Successfully nurturing two of them is called Legendary — Middle Stage."

"In today’s Star Realm, most Legendary Upper Stage powerhouses, after reaching this point, can begin preparing to ascend to Demigod."

...

After listening to Mr. Slab's complete and detailed explanation, Loren, leaning on the hot spring lake shore, lowered his head and fell into thought.

After a long moment.

Loren came out of his reverie and asked a new question in his heart:

"At the Legendary tier, what are the differences between the various supernatural systems?"

Soon, Mr. Slab's explanation rang in Loren's ears again.

"Although there are slight differences, essentially there is no real distinction."

"The authority of knowledge tells me that the higher one walks the path of the superhuman, the more one discovers that everyone is actually heading toward the same destination."

"To use the distant Eastern Star Domain's phrasing, it is 'one method leads to ten thousand methods.'"

Saying this, Mr. Slab's deep voice paused for a moment before continuing:

"For example, the Legendary practitioners of the Martial Artist system."

"They tend to begin by nurturing the body first, then energy, and only finally the spirit."

"Whereas those who walk the Mage path often nurture energy or spiritual power first, and only later begin to nurture the body to make up for the last flaw of being human."

"But in essence, at the Legendary tier, what they do is the same..."

"It is worth mentioning that after reaching the Demigod stage, the strength differences between different supernatural systems will shrink to near zero."

"At that time, what will determine the strength gaps between Demigods will be their accumulations and their own special natures."

"And the Legendary tier is a very important stage on the path of the superhuman."

"Superhumans can use this stage to make up for all their... deficiencies in advance."

When Mr. Slab spoke that last sentence, there was an unspoken seriousness in his tone.

...

After learning all the truths and meanings of the Legendary tier, Loren, still leaning by the shore, returned to his previous lazy state.

A faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "So, what tier am I now?"

"Newly entering the Legendary tier, respected Mr. Loren."

"Oh?" Loren's tone showed some surprise.

"Not even Legendary — Lower Stage?"

He had thought his massive spiritual power had already met the standard for ascending to Demigod.

So it hadn't...

"Uh... Rule-Based Psychics are a bit different from most superhumans."

"Your path... hm... is comparatively broader..."

"Uh... you don't have to care too much about those common rules..."

"Especially you, Mr. Loren, a Rule-Based Psychic like you..."

Mr. Slab's tone was very tactful.

This deep, reliable voice, having answered Loren's question, then wisely fell silent again.

...

After understanding the true meaning of the Legendary tier and hearing the tact in the reply, the corner of Loren's mouth twitched for some reason!

My intuition says the spirit stones on me are in grave danger...

Wealthy Loren, it seems I will have to say goodbye to you again!

I... will miss you very much...

Hmm! It's all the Raven's fault!!

It must have eaten too much!!!

In the distance.

The Raven, floating quietly on the hot spring's surface, instantly sensed a familiar feeling rise inexplicably from its heart.

"???"

Huh?! You damned master, are you maliciously slandering me again?!

Can't you at least act like a decent person when you're soaking in a hot spring?!

...

The huge hot spring lake returned to its initial quiet.

Miss Silver Dragon and Hans, who had finished their discussion, had by now chosen to rest in the hot spring.

As for Loren, having passed the blame onto the Raven, he also calmly closed his eyes.

What does the Raven's problem have to do with me?

Enjoying the hot spring first is more important!

Don't punish yourself because of the Raven's mistakes...

The Raven in the distance: "..."

I'm definitely going to report you to the Federation Animal Protection Organization! You damn Loren!!

...

Federal Calendar 7709, January 7, early morning.

Radiant Flow Star Domain, Nature Reserve outside the Main City.

Deep within this endless dense forest, a fully armed technological fortress was hidden.

At this moment, a metallic passage slowly cracked open on the mechanized wall of that technological fortress.

Miss Silver Dragon and Loren, faces full of satisfaction, walked side by side out of this hidden and dangerous technological fortress.

Following behind them were Hans and his twelve mechanical companions.

From the expressions on the faces of the man and the dragon, it was clear they were quite pleased with the hot spring Hans had led up from deep underground.

After the group walked out of the metallic passage, they stopped outside the technological fortress.

Miss Silver Dragon and Loren turned back at that moment to look toward the "mechanical prodigy" whose fame in the Radiant Flow Star Domain had recently been rising.

His mechanical companions clustered around him, looking rather crowded.

"Thank you for the hot spring, Mr. Hans." Miss Silver Dragon gave a small smile.

"Mr. Hans, and Robot Sirs, farewell." Loren also lightly tipped his hat as a gesture of parting.

...

At the same time.

Those Legendary robots surrounding Hans loudly voiced their goodbyes to Loren.

"Mr. Loren, although I've temporarily quit gambling, remember to miss me!!"

"I will miss you too! Mr. Loren!"

"Those spirit stones are only temporarily in your possession! I haven't quit gambling!!"

"Right! I haven't quit either! I will definitely win them back! Mr. Loren!"

"Exactly, I'm not like that machine who gave up halfway! I will continue to perfect my gambling techniques!"

"Be sure to spend those spirit stones sparingly! Mr. Loren! I saved those up with great effort!"

"Wahhhhh... I can't tell if I'm sad because you're leaving or sad because those spirit stones are about to leave... Mr. Loren!"

"Looking forward to our next meeting! Mr. Loren!"

...

With Hans' wry smile and his twelve mechanical companions waving their reluctant farewells,

Miss Silver Dragon and Loren stepped into a lit spatial magic teleportation array together and vanished.

When the bright spatial teleportation magic array disappeared from that spot, the deep forest returned to its unvisited state.

Hans watched the direction where the teleportation array vanished, shook his head with a smile, then turned and led his twelve mechanical companions toward the Radiant Flow Main City.

He was going to take his spirit-stone-broke mechanical companions into the Main City to look for any "wild spirit stones."

In the Radiant Flow Star Domain, where cults flourish, this kind of thing often happens.

This was perfectly normal.
