I Refuse to Be a Valkyrie!

You had to understand that Divine Keys chose their wielders. If you were compatible with one and earned its recognition, you could even easily use it to slay certain Herrscher-level enemies.

But if you were incompatible with it, unsuitable... or if it simply refused to cooperate, then... even with a Divine Key in hand, you might not wield it as well as Theresa did.

This Authority was worth optimizing the Blessing for and taking away permanently.

Then there was another Authority... Chi You's Banner.

Chi You's Banner was a flag bearing Chi You's totem. Yet it differed from an ordinary flag. It was not made of cloth, but rather a crimson mist-like substance that appeared in the sky, resembling clouds.
