The Book of Causal Paths burned with power. One, then two golden pages were torn out and ignited.
A vast amount of causal power was released, swirling around Charles's body.
This causal power entwined itself around the complete rule Charles had mastered.
A string of complex, profound runes extended from that rule.
The string of characters flowed through Charles's mind, and he easily committed it to memory.
He asked, "Is this my disguised true name?"
The Book of Causal Paths wrote, "That's right. It is your disguised true name, created through the complete rule of fire that you have mastered."
"This true name has a close connection to you, yet it will not be fatal. This disguised true name will possess all the abilities of a real true name."
"It can receive messages transmitted by other demons, be cursed, and be tortured, but the pain will not be transmitted to you on its own. You must activate it yourself."
"If a demon casts a fatal curse upon you, he will not obtain what he wants. You can directly shatter this true name."
Hearing this, Charles was reassured.
All that remained was to wait patiently.
After some time, a terrifying pressure came from afar.
As Charles cultivated, a majestic voice sounded beside his ear. "You... immediately lead your legion and come join me!"
The voice was filled with majesty and brutality. Merely hearing it made Charles's body begin to tremble, and he could no longer sit steadily within the tower.
He raised his head and looked in horror toward a vaguely sensed direction.
Is this a Demon Grand Lord?!
We are still so far apart, yet just one sentence has made my body tremble in fear. I even have an impulse to throw everything aside and rush toward him.
