Rihanna

Biodata

Power Progression

Appearance

Rihanna’s original form is a kitten. After attaining wind-type godhood, her Divine Body takes the form of a little girl with cat ears and ornate Hanfu-style clothing 48 96.

• Feline true body: Remains separate from her Divine Body after external godhood; she can switch between the two 96.
• Variable size: Can shrink into a smaller feline form 93.
• Retained kitten form: Still uses her feline Saint Domain True Body long after becoming a Sovereign 165.

Personality

Initially proud and resistant to submission, Rihanna only accepts a contract when Lucas prepares to kill her. Her early outlook reflects magical-beast society: she considers it natural for the strong to kill the weak and questions why Lucas bothers explaining himself to weaker creatures. Although she does not immediately understand his insistence on respecting life, she remembers his words and intends to ask him more 48 93.

She becomes affectionate and loyal toward Lucas, whom she calls “Boss.” Immediately after gaining a humanoid Divine Body, she still wants him to hold her as he did when she was a kitten. Her protectiveness can be impulsive: when she learns that another Sovereign has interfered with their faith-gathering activities, she moves to kill him until Lucas stops her 96 156.

Rihanna is curious about cultivation and readily asks for guidance, but also enjoys fighting. When seclusion stops helping her, she excitedly suggests ambushing hostile deities. Her playful side appears in her teasing of an inexperienced Shadow Demon assassin 112 120 165.

Abilities & Skills

Soul-Screaming

Rihanna’s innate divine ability extracts a soul directly from its Divine Spark and allows her to devour it. The Spark remains inside the Divine Body, but the loss of its soul kills that Divine Clone 97.

• Deity killing: Uses the ability to bring down Golden Dragon God Oliusor and later the fire-type God fought alongside Lucas 115 123.
• Combat coordination: Works with Lucas’s soul attacks to strike weakened enemies 122 123.
• Limits: Requires an opportunity to attack; she initially cannot find an opening against the fire-type God 122.
• Edict extraction: Can summon Saints’ souls out, but initially lacks the fine control needed to extract useful edict fragments without damaging their fragile souls 122.

Death Edict and Soul Attacks

Rihanna can attack souls even as an Eighth-Rank Magical Beast, before attaining either of her divine forms 48 97.

• Combines her understanding of the Death Edict with soul attacks to protect Windsor during the Snow Lion confrontation 87 90.
• Helps Lucas’s soul research by gathering experimental magical beasts and participating in discussions about extracting law insights 97 109.
• Preserves her Death Edict talent by choosing external rather than internal wind-type godhood 96.

Wind Laws and Swordsmanship

Her wind cultivation develops from the world-granted Essence of Wind into movement, sword techniques, and music-related soul attacks 96 111 131.

• Wind Blade: Launches a ranged blade against the Snow Lion King, though it fails to hit him 87.
• Fast and Slow: Fuses the opposing aspects to advance to Wind God 122.
• Afterimages and feints: Uses rapid movement and a constructed decoy to disguise her real attack 111.
• Detection weakness: Lucas’s Earth Pulsation distinguishes her true position despite her visual feints 111.
• Flexible-sword techniques: Lucas selects this weapon for its cutting and vibrating properties, which suit wind mysteries such as sound waves, music, and dimensional attacks 112.

Music-Based Soul Attacks

Rihanna pursues Music after learning that a bamboo lifeform comprehended it by listening to wind moving through a grove 128 129.

• Learns the flute from Lucas alongside Windsor 129.
• Progresses to experimenting with Music’s soul attacks, but initially cannot prevent them from affecting allies 131.
• Her uncontrolled practice repeatedly injures a nearby Lowgod-level soul, requiring recovery with Soul Gold Beads 131.

Sovereign Powers

After refining her Wind Sovereign Spark, Rihanna begins constructing a Divine Plane of her own 154.

• Plane creation: Hopes to use the process to advance toward Wind Paragon; Lucas warns that repeated creation offers diminishing benefits 154.
• Authority: Uses her power as a Wind Sovereign to command powerful Abyssal Plane figures to travel to the Infernal Realm 165.
• Artifact strengthening: Controls a drop of destruction-type Sovereign’s Might to raise Shakla’s blade to the pinnacle of Highgod Artifacts 161.
• Physical strength: Can crush Highgod Artifacts with her bare hands 161.

Equipment & Items

• Flexible sword / Soft Sword — Chosen by Lucas to complement her wind cultivation; she later nurtures her weapon with Wind God Divine Power 112 123.
• Bamboo flute — Made by Lucas and used while studying Music 129 131.
• Wind Sovereign Spark — Supplied by Lucas and refined to become a Wind Sovereign 154.
• Netherworld Heart — Kept with Lucas’s approval because she needs it to monitor the Netherworld 172.

History

Contract with Lucas

After surviving two of Rihanna’s soul attacks, Lucas prepares to kill her rather than leave a dangerous enemy alive. Rihanna agrees to submit on the condition that he explain how he resisted her attacks. Anton relays her demand, and Lucas and Rihanna complete a blood-based contract that places triangular marks in their souls. Their bond is later identified as an Equal Contract 48 129.

Lucas begins teaching her about elemental laws and the Four Edicts. She initially assumes that wind must be stronger because it has nine mysteries rather than six, prompting him to explain that the number of mysteries does not determine an element’s ultimate strength 49.

Windsor and the Snow Lion King

Rihanna accompanies Windsor to subdue the Snow Lion King. She supports Windsor through an avalanche, blocks the lion’s escape, and intervenes with a soul attack when Windsor is endangered 87 88 90.

Once the lion agrees to surrender, Rihanna dictates an oath requiring him to serve Windsor and protect her life and interests. The subdued lion, Davis, subsequently carries both of them back toward the capital 91.

Godhood and the Elf Goddess Conflict

As Rihanna approaches adulthood, Lucas keeps her nearby to guide her ascension. She chooses external godhood so that becoming a wind deity will not cost her Death Edict talent 92 96.

During the Elf Goddess’s pursuit, Rihanna remains with Lucas while his family escapes separately. Her innate ability helps them survive until Yalta intervenes. When Lucas later retaliates, Rihanna fights Oliusor and kills his Divine Clone with Soul-Screaming 102 103 105 114 115.

Divine Plane Battles and Travel

After entering a Divine Plane with Lucas and Windsor, Rihanna helps hunt hostile deities and tests whether her innate ability can extract edict fragments from Saints. The experiment fails because her Death Divine Clone lacks sufficient soul control 117 120 122.

Her Wind God breakthrough occurs during battle against a fire-type God. She subsequently kills him with her innate ability after Lucas’s attacks weaken his soul 122 123.

During later travels, Rihanna accompanies the group across the Sea of Stars and Mist. In the Amethyst Mountain Range, she gathers amethysts before choosing to guard Lucas’s cultivation against nearby beasts. Lucas also saves her from the wind caves’ overwhelming suction 136 141.

Sovereign Era

Following her ascension to Wind Sovereign, Rihanna explores the Abyssal Plane with Lucas. She takes the Abyssal Blade Demon Shakla into her service and strengthens her blade using Sovereign’s Might obtained from Lucas 154 160 161.

She later keeps the Netherworld Heart to monitor the Netherworld. In her final documented intervention, she blocks Fate Sovereign Orloff’s path and challenges whether he intends to join the ongoing battle 172 180.

Relationships

• Lucas — Equal Contract partner, mentor, and leader. She calls him “Boss,” follows his cultivation advice, and repeatedly fights beside him 48 112 123 129.
• Windsor Stans — Trusted companion, whom Rihanna addresses as “Sister-in-law.” Rihanna protects her during the Snow Lion battle, and the two later learn the flute together 90 112 129.
• Anton — Fellow contracted magical beast. He initially translates between her and Lucas and introduces her to aspects of human behavior 48 49.
• Davis — Snow Lion King whom she helps Windsor subdue; Rihanna dictates the terms of his protective oath 88 91.
• Yalta, God of Life — Praises Rihanna after her ascension and later helps rescue her and Lucas. Yalta considers keeping Rihanna nearby but abandons the idea after recognizing her attachment to Lucas 97 103.
• Shakla — Abyssal Blade Demon subordinate whose blade Rihanna strengthens 160 161.

Trivia

• Rihanna has never encountered another Divine Beast like herself 96.
• Despite wanting more after her first jar of Lucas’s fruit liquor, she passes out after drinking a second 94.
• She can locate Lucas through their Equal Contract; using it once leads her to accidentally interrupt him kissing Windsor 129.
