?It took a while for Rowan to settle his consciousness from the unexpected surprise, it was like looking down a well expecting to find water but instead, you are presented with the sight of a universe.
If he had lungs he would have gasped in sheer amazement at the goal of Ohrox, the Prince of Destruction.
He had to go back and recheck his assumptions again and again before he fully accepted the truth before him. The Primordial Record was a shortcut to great power, but he should not look down on the ingenuity and wisdom that could be born from great age and special circumstances.
The multiverse was vast and nearly boundless, and the number of lives inside them all was infinite, among them were powerful geniuses who with the addition of a nearly infinite lifespan might be able to create miracles. Just as Ohrox did and nearly succeeded.
“Meeting me was your greatest burst of bad luck Ohrox.”
Rowan did not know for how long the Demon Prince had used in concocting this plan, but it was a work of genius and madness, that was only possible because of two primary ingredients, the talents of a Lightning Kirin like Archimedes and a Time Aspected Treasure, and by careful preparation and planning the Demon Prince had access to both.
Rowan had learned about the Tower of Greed from the Oracle of the Covenant, that this Origin Treasure was given to Ohrox by the Demon God, who was a Primordial. Anything related to Primordials was deeply powerful, and it should not come as a surprise to him that the Tower of Greed had more uses than he thought.
In the vision of the past, he had seen from the Spirit Matrix Gate when he was awakening his Spirit Matrix outside the universe, he saw a table with the true body of his father pinned against it and in addition to that, he had seen six chairs.
That must indicate that at the very least there must be six Primordials, but he currently knew only three, Chaos, The Demon God, and the Ruler of the Celestials, Asteraoth. If the true body of his father was also a Primordial as he suspected he was, then it meant there were two other unknown Primordials.
Not letting himself be distracted, he focused on the method Ohrox had created in order to become something so powerful it almost wanted to make Rowan curse aloud, he had thought he was the biggest cheat in the multiverse, but Ohrox might have become a close second.
The Demon had infiltrated the body of the Lightning Kirin, and this was not a minor infiltration, he had shifted his entire essence into Archimedes.
This process might have begun far before Archimedes was born, perhaps hundreds of millions of years in the past. The Demon Prince must have been quietly moving from body to body of different Lightning Kirim over the eons until he had seen a suitable candidate.
This must be the only way he must have been so familiar with the physiology and spirit of this race that he had been able to entrench himself into their bloodline talent pool.
It must have been an incredibly difficult feat, but Ohrox did not appear to be a normal demon. Against all odds, he had succeeded.
Rowan had discovered when he had killed the Archmages in the Underverse that the true roots of their souls were placed inside a Supreme World, keeping them safe from mortal wounds that could destroy their Immortal Souls. He knew the Demon Princes were most likely the same.
If the Cerulean gods were members of a Supreme World, then they would have placed their Divine Kingdom inside the Supreme World, and no matter how many times Rowan would have killed them, he would be unable to enter their Divine Kingdom that was shielded by the Will of a Divine Kingdom. This was the absolute protection that was granted by a Supreme World.
To achieve his goals Ohrox had gone with a different path and shifted the roots of his essence and placed it, not inside the Great Abyss, but deep inside the Core of Archimedes.
Rowan had to brainstorm to understand how the Demon Prince had been able to perform such a feat, and he realized that the Demon must have used the opportunity when he was being killed by the Gods of Trion who most likely had weapons that could destroy the soul even under the protection of a Supreme Will.
With this manner, even though the Gods of Trion must be celebrating the death of this Demon Prince, unknown to them Ohrox had just been using them to further his ambitions. His death at their hands was just a means to escape and hide.
He must have found a way to successfully push the remnants of his soul into Archimedes using arrangements he must have made millions of years ago, which was a necessary step because if he succeeded in his plans, he would need time to rise before he was crushed in his cradle due to the ungodly potential he was about to unlock.
Rowan had heard of the ungodly competition inside the Great Abyss, and no Demon Prince would stand idle while another among their ranks rose up, they would all strive to cut Ohrox down before he surpassed them.
The second part of his plan was with the Origin Treasure. Rowan had been able to manipulate this treasure in a method that defied common sense using his Ouroboros Bloodline, as he was able to go back in time and still keep all the benefits he had gained from the future. .
Ohrox had been with this Treasure for billions of years and he discovered another method to utilize it using the bloodline talent of Archimedes.
As far as his inference could decipher from the evidence gathered from the lightning kirin, this is what would have happened when Archimedes had died a final time.
At her death, Ohrox would be resurrected, and he would regain his powers as a Demon Prince since a majority of his Soul was still intact, and he would become something greater, due to the fact that his Soul and Essence had replaced the roots of Archimedes bloodline and every time she died, the benefits of her resurrection was channeled towards the Demon Prince.
