There was great confusion on Raze's face as he heard about what the special item could do. Because why would one need sothing to summon soone that was at the Divine stage?
To him, Pagna warriors continued to grow in strength going up the stages, and he knew that the Divine stage was one of the three split stages: Initial, Middle, and Divine. A tool that could just bring soone from one place to the next seed rely a teleportation spell in his eyes.
"Why would I want to use sothing like this?" Raze said out loud as he was baffled because he was sure it was at least a mythical-level item.
"Wait, what do you an?" Alba replied, confused. "Because it allows us to summon soone from those that had reached the Divine stage. With that, any problem you have could be wiped out in an instant."
It was then that for Graft, it had clicked in his head because he was from Alter, he knew that there were those that had co from other worlds just having co to Pagna. He thought, based on Raze's skills, that he would have at least obtained this knowledge by now.
"You don't know what happens when one reaches the Divine stage, do you?" Graft said in surprise.
Raze had no way to defend his dumbfoundedness, so he had no choice but to just shake his head.
"Wait, what, how can you be a stage 5 Pagna warrior and not know?" Plon said, even he was surprised.
Alba found this very interesting; it just went to show that there was more mysteriousness to the Dark Magus because she doubted there would be any Pagna warrior that didn't know.
"There is a reason why everyone who becos a Pagna warrior wishes to reach the Divine Stage," Alba started to explain. "The first, our bodies beco so complete that at the Divine stage, our bodies are practically immortal, and we can live indefinitely.
"Poisons have next to no effect on us, and our bodies are almost like that of what so would call gods. So believe that only one at the Divine Stage can kill another Divine stage."
"Now there is another reason why at the Divine Stage, these people are considered gods, and it's not just because of immortality. It's because when one reaches the Divine stage, they then ascend to another dinsion. Another world where only those at the Divine stage are allowed to be," Alba explained.
This information didn't contradict what Raze had learned before from the Red Brigade Clan, and he still didn't understand why such a thing was so important. Because, in the first place, could he even decide who it would summon? Who could say the one being summoned would even be on their side?
"Now there is another reason why at the Divine Stage, these people are considered gods, and it's not just because of immortality. It's because when one reaches the Divine stage, they then ascend to another dinsion. Another world where only those at the Divine stage are allowed to be," Alba explained.
"Another world, another dinsion, like the ones that we enter through portals?" Raze asked.
"Correct, it is a world only accessed by the Divine stages. Almost a beacon of light will fall upon you and drag you into this world," Alba continued.
This didn't sound good for Raze. He wanted to get his revenge; if he reached the Divine Stage, he would have to leave the whole of Pagna. But this did an one thing.
"So, the only ones that I would have to worry about are those that are at the Middle stage level in Pagna; I won't co across those at the higher stage?" Raze realized. His opponents would only be a little stronger than the Elder for the Light Faction. It also explained why he had yet to et anyone at the Divine stage so far.
"Not quite," Alba continued. "Things get a little complicated from here, so you need to listen carefully, and please keep in mind, the information we know is limited since we aren't at the Divine stage ourselves."
Raze nodded as he was noting all this down in the back of his mind. He was good at rembering things; it was one of the things that set him apart from the others.
"Although no one but Divine stage beings can enter the Divine realm, they can co back down to Pagna whenever they wish. If they do, however, their bodies and powers seem to be limited to the top of the middle stage."
It sounded quite absurd; Raze didn't even know how that would be possible. One's strength was one's strength. The more he listened, the more it did sound like a bunch of rules that had been set by the gods. They could have the power of gods in the world of gods, but if they ca down to what was still considered the mortal world, then their power would be weakened.
"Keep in mind that their strength would still be greater than many of those at the Middle stage. Although their power and body wouldn't be the sa, their techniques, their years of being alive, all of that would still exist. However, so see it also as an opportunity to kill a Divine one since they are sowhat weakened," Alba continued.
"But what's the point then?" Raze asked. "Do the Divine beings co down to Pagna a lot, and what's the point of obtaining all that power if you can only stay in one place? Why do you guys aspire to go there?"
"It's the pinnacle," Alba comnted. "And besides those limitations are only for the world of Pagna. You see, Divine realms are able to enter portals still in Pagna, and in other dinsions, their strength is returned to them.
"In Pagna, the Dinsion portals are classified into Initial, Middle, and Divine based on the difficulty of the beasts inside. For us Middle stage warriors, we have to be most careful in the Divine dinsions even if there is a large group of us, in case soone from the Divine realm is currently there."
This did make Raze wonder, if he reached the Divine stage and went to Alterian, would he still have the sa strength? Was the limitation only on Pagna? From the sound of it, it did seem to be the case. For now, it didn't seem like the case that he would lose strength, and the good thing was, at least they could still move while being in the Divine realm.
"I was just wondering," Plon said, hearing all of this explanation again; he had heard about this when he was younger, but now that he was a bit older, he had questions to ask himself. "Divine Stage warriors mostly co from their clans. But when clans are in trouble or in a fight, even though they may be weakened, why don't the Divine ones assist?"
"In so cases, they do, especially if there is a strong connection such as family mbers and such, but I can give you a few reasons for this," Alba stated. "The amount of beings that reach the Divine stage is less than one percent. So think about it, if soone could live on forever, then most of those they knew would be gone."
"By the ti one gets older and is in the Middle stages, even then, most of those they were close to have disappeared, and the only thing they have left is to progress to the Divine stage."
"Another factor is that their power is weakened; joining in a fight is a chance for them to lose their life. To put it simply, it's a risk for them. Then the last factor, to those at the Divine stage, everyone else is below them, including those in their own clan."
"They see all of us who live on Pagna like that of ants. Now, just like in life, there are so kids that enjoy destroying and toppling ant hills. However, what will also happen in life are those around them who question what they are doing."
"Or perhaps so will take it on themselves to punish those that are harming the ants. If the Divine being gets involved, then the others in the Divine realm will ridicule them, and rember, even in the Divine realm, there are stages that separate them."
From this conversation, Raze had learned quite a lot that he didn't know about the world of Pagna. He wondered if this Divine realm had any relation to those in Alterian. He wasn't so sure it did, but it was interesting to find out about those.
"So, I sowhat understand, but then why is this item so special?" Raze asked.
"Because that item allows you to summon soone from the Divine realm," Graft explained. "It will only work for a limited ti, but if one is summoned, then it ans they are able to keep all of their power here in the world of Pagna. That item is sothing that has the power to change the outco of what happens on Pagna."
The other thing was, this was just one of three items that Raze had retrieved, and there were two more to go. It also made him wonder, if these were the types of items he could receive from Initial dinsions, what did the Middle stage dinsions and Divine dinsions hold?
