Background

Sheng Luni inherited the consciousnesses of both the Holy God and Dark God. Previous imperial heirs who inherited such consciousnesses typically went mad or died from the erosion; Luni endured the strain, mastered both presences, and gained two S+-rank divine talents instead. Her magical aptitude and dual inheritance made her the Holy Light Empire's strongest young prodigy, and the reigning king publicly named her as his likely successor. 327

She serves as the Church of Light's saintess to preserve the relationship between the Church and the Holy Light Empire rather than because she is deeply tied to the Church itself. 565

Appearance

Sheng Luni combines the sacred presentation expected of a Church saintess with an unusually bewitching presence. Her later bloodline awakening gives her the appearance of a four-winged fallen angel, with holiness and evil coexisting in her aura. 327 401

• White hair and brows, a trait associated with the Holy Light Empire's imperial bloodline 276
• A dignified oval face and pale complexion 276
• Curled hair and a black-gold earring in her public saintess presentation 276
• Two pairs of black-and-white feathered wings after her further awakening 401
• One black pupil and one white pupil after awakening her light-and-dark bloodlines further 401

Personality

In public, Sheng Luni is gentle, dignified, holy, and elegant—the ideal image of a princess and saintess. In private, she can be defiant, crude, disdainful, and openly bored by people or events that fail to interest her. 276

Her shifting behavior is not merely an act. The competing consciousnesses of the Holy God and Dark God affect her temperament, actions, and even her sense of self, producing fractured states ranging from virtuous and solemn to cold, seductive, unruly, or possessive. 327 441

She is proud of her strength and ruthless toward opponents she considers deserving of punishment. During the Magic Beast Tournament, she killed her Black Orc opponent after he surrendered, partly motivated by the Black Crystal Empire's history of violence against women. 328

Abilities & Skills

Holy God's Favor and Dark God's Favor

Sheng Luni possesses two S+-rank divine talents created from the divine consciousnesses she inherited and subdued. 327

• Wields both light- and dark-attribute power.
• Her bloodline can awaken further, manifesting black-and-white wings and heterochromatic eyes. 401
• The divine consciousnesses provide extraordinary power but destabilize her personality. 327

Staffless Magic

Sheng Luni can cast magic without a staff or chant, enabling her to attack with little warning. 316

• Casually created a holy-light sphere with destructive power compared to a small nuclear bomb, forcing Lorna to surrender. 316
• Used spatial magic to freeze a Black Orc opponent in place. 327
• Cast Soul-Stealing Shadow, a dark-element spell that damages the target's soul. 328

Magic Swordsman / Demonbound Sword Soul

Her dual-class system combines a mage's spellcasting with the close-range burst power of the Demonbound Sword Soul. It is regarded as an exceptional case that cannot be replicated. 359

• Conceals a slender rapier within her staff. 358
• Can fight in melee while freely casting magic. 359
• Her drawn sword manifests demonic sword intent and intensifies her negative emotions. 358

Dark Domain

Sheng Luni can establish Dark Domain and reinforce herself with Dark God's Protection. 357

• Dark God's Protection raises her dark-magic power by 800%. 357
• She used the domain to teleport behind Ling Zhan and destroy a level-40 gold-grade armor piece with a touch of her staff. 357

Reincarnation Realm

Sheng Luni used the Reincarnation Realm to defeat Li Chaoge in their semifinal. Within it, she took Ling Zhan's appearance to exploit Li Chaoge's feelings and break her mental defenses, leaving Li Chaoge with less than one-tenth of her attributes after defeat. 356

• Its effectiveness relies on destabilizing the target's mind.
• It is stated to be ineffective against opponents with sufficiently resolute minds. 356

Equipment

• Black Demon Staff — A forbidden object infused with a Black Demon's will; it conceals Sheng Luni's rapier. 357 358
• Black Demon Sword — A high-grade spirit artifact whose innate effect ignores defense and resistance. Ling Zhan later crippled it during their final. 362
• Holy Spirit Battle Armor — A bespoke half-black, half-white suit designed to accommodate her twin bloodlines. 401
  • Its team set-bond raised the Holy Light Empire team's attribute increase from 30% to 60%. 402
  • It enabled shared battle damage, vision, feedback, and airborne movement for linked teammates. 402

Relationships

• Ling Zhan — Tournament rival and later offstage collaborator. Sheng Luni respected him enough to wear a battle dress and open their championship match at full strength; Ling Zhan ultimately killed her in the final arena battle. She later agreed to grant citizenship to forty former slaves in exchange for an unspecified future condition. 357 361 441
• Sheng Luqian — Younger sister. Luni is protective of her, though their differing temperaments and shared interest in Ling Zhan create friction. 349 401
• Li Chaoge — Fellow favored daughter of heaven and tournament rival. Sheng Luni defeated her through the Reincarnation Realm, deepening their hostility. 354 356
• Sheng Ge'er — Cousin who considers Ling Zhan an ideal match for Sheng Luni and Sheng Luqian, and attempts to facilitate a relationship between them. 538
• Personal Maid — An unnamed attendant accustomed to Sheng Luni's abrupt personality shifts; she reports Ling Zhan's dungeon-record performance and assists the princess privately. 276

Story Role / Major Arcs

Dungeon Record Rivalry

Sheng Luni held the record for clearing floors 1–50 of the Dungeon Secret Realm until Ling Zhan completed them in 10 minutes and 32 seconds—more than eight minutes faster than her. The result shifted her view of the Jobless Freelancer from “trash” to a person worth watching. 276

Global Magic Beast Championship

As one of the tournament's leading favorites, Sheng Luni demonstrated overwhelming magic, eliminated a Black Orc opponent, and defeated Li Chaoge to reach the final. 316 328 356

She faced Ling Zhan in the individual final, revealing her Black Demon Staff, Dark Domain, dual-class system, and swordsmanship. Although she pushed Ling Zhan into releasing his limiter, she was killed in the arena battle and lost the championship. 357 359 361 362

Holy Light Empire Team Battle

After further awakening her bloodlines, Sheng Luni led the Holy Light Empire team in its rematch against the Dragon Kingdom. She activated the Holy Spirit Battle Armor's linked effects and personally led the team's charge. 401 402

Alliance with Ling Zhan

Ling Zhan approached Sheng Luni to secure legal citizenship for forty former slaves living without protection in Darklight City's slums. She agreed to handle the matter and reserved a future favor as her condition, formally establishing an offstage cooperation despite their arena rivalry. 440 441

Demon-Slaying Legion

Sheng Luni later voluntarily joined Ling Zhan's Demon-Slaying Legion alongside several other young prodigies. 938
