The same applies to others; whoever brings out something whose weight surpasses that of the Fire and Destiny will obtain the Fire.

"very good."
Upon hearing Taranton's words, Cerrudra frowned slightly, a proud smile curving her lips.
"Then let this divine scale weigh the weight of my kingly way!"
Considering that this trip was a contest with the gods, the girl changed into the outfit she would wear when leading an army. The top, with its military elements, was silver and blue, and the skirt was covered by over-the-knee boots that hugged her fair and slender legs.
Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, Cerberus strode with the same steady and resolute steps she took on her coronation as she ascended the throne, stepping onto the other side of the scales that stood opposite the blue flame.
Stand still.
Will we win?
March 7th held his breath nervously and subconsciously swallowed.
"Guaranteed to lose."
Qiong's answer was crisp and concise.
Even though he avoided the standard flag, he couldn't change the established facts.
Splash!
The thick, golden chains began to turn, emitting a solemn, low hum of metal friction.
The enormous golden scales that could weigh the value of all things, which had been completely weighed down by the fire of Tarantun, began to be pried open on one side as weights were placed on the other.
The scale pan was indeed raised.
However, the height it can rise to is limited.
The tilt angles at both ends are still frustratingly disparate.
"Huh? How come... it only moved this little bit?"
On March 7th, a stiff smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.
"It feels like there's still a long way to go."
"After all, it's still in its growth stage."
Qiong crossed her arms, looking calm and unsurprised.
To put it bluntly, Kerudela is only a fourteen or fifteen-year-old child at the moment.
Even though she was precocious to an absurd degree, she was crowned queen at such a young age.
But the so-called "royal way" and such.
To a large extent, it also stemmed from the bizarre and humorous stories about King of Glory that Qiong told her back then, the Pinduoduo version of the game.
Qiong had told her the story of "Fate Staying Tonight," and although the princess found the title strange, the story was still very interesting.
The scene of the King's Feast left a deep impression on her.
King Arthur's desire for the Holy Grail seemed naive and idealistic even to the young Crydela—not in a derogatory sense, of course.
The Hero King is arrogant and conceited, and is not a wise king.
As a young ruler, she deeply admired the conqueror's achievements and ambition.
It could even be said that the flame of her ambition to conquer the entire Onpharos was initially ignited by these stories.
However, having a goal does not mean that one has a profound understanding of the Way of the King, nor that the tempering of one's beliefs is far from complete.
In short...
too young.
Having only led troops in two battles, what kind of convictions could he have developed?
Not to mention the weight that could shake divine authority.
"So it really didn't work."
Xia Die's gaze lingered between the two vastly different ends of the scale, her ethereal voice carrying a hint of regret.
A hint of surprise flashed in Hathaway's eyes at the will that Krydella had displayed.
It should be understood that the fire not only represents the power of the divine law, but also carries the destiny of a Titan.
It is a double-layered "weight".
The fact that such a weight could cause such a noticeable displacement is enough to prove the purity and unwavering resolve of the young empress's will.
It truly deserves to be the leader of the fish group personally cultivated by the King.
“kowa~”
Taranton's long, deep voice rang out again, carrying the scrutiny of a god.
"Is this all the 'weight' I have now?"
Kelude La frowned deeply.
There was no intense disappointment or frustration in my heart, but rather a calm assessment.
Before she stepped onto the scales, she had already foreseen the outcome.
Clearly assessing the gap between oneself and the opponent is the most basic quality of a chess player.
Arrogance and conceit will only lead to misjudgments of the game, resulting in a complete defeat.
The reason she came up so decisively was because she had no doubt about the path she was on.
Even if it is only a spark now, it will one day become a prairie fire that burns down the Ompharos.
This is to use the scales of the gods to weigh one's true worth in the present moment.
“gehu~”
“Even though there is a huge difference in our sizes, I still firmly believe in my law.”
Kerudela stepped off the scales resolutely, her steps without the slightest hesitation or delay.
Before she left the scale, she actually raised the flame a little more.
One of the most important lessons her teacher taught her was self-confidence—absolute confidence in the path she was on and in the right way.
If the righteous path can be easily shaken, how can the souls of those soldiers who died for her find peace?
Regardless of who or what god questions you, you should stick to your own principles.
These are actually essential basic qualities for a powerful life journeyer.
Why are all the powerful travelers on the path of destiny somewhat eccentric?
How can you become stronger without going crazy?
The path of destiny has a touch of idealism.
“...gipa~”
Taranton's voice seemed to pause for a moment, slightly surprised by the girl's quick and firm response, his voice revealing a hint of unexpected approval, indicating his approval.
"Teacher, I'm sorry to have disappointed you."
Krydella walked up to Qiong.
"No, your score is good, I'll give you 82 points."
Qiong touched her chin.
"82 points? That's less than 90? Ah Qiong, what kind of harsh scoring standard is this?"
March 7th leaned back slightly, giving off a "Your expectations are too high" look.
"A-Qiong, what are you using as your scoring criteria?"
"Of course, it's the perfect princess template I've always imagined."
If you're going to raise one, aim for the most dazzling one.
"How could such a thing possibly exist?"
March 7th couldn't help but complain.
"oaru~"
The net of laws, as golden and fiery as water, rippled, and the voice of the Titans echoed.
"Would anyone else like to give it a try?"
March 7th's gaze swept across everyone.
"I come."
Besides Qiong, only Vilvi could hear March 7's words. She stepped onto the scale with crisp, decisive steps.
The chains flowed again, and the scales tilted.
The result was a smaller increase than that of Crydela.
However, Velvey didn't pay any attention to the tilt; her attention was completely drawn to the structural principles of the scales and the form of Tarranton's existence.
"Looks like I can't do it either."
After circling around without finding a starting point, Vivi jumped down nimbly, showing no sign of frustration.
"Does anyone else want to try?"
The butterfly shook its head.
She didn't feel that she possessed anything more valuable than the Fire and the Titan's destiny.
The main point is that the measurement of value is not subjective; otherwise, if Xiaodie had placed a few of the gifts that Your Excellency had personally made for her, or simply let Qiong stand on it, she could have overshadowed the fate of the Fire Seed and the Titan.
Those things are insignificant compared to your place in her heart.
Hathene didn't think she could produce anything that could surpass the Fire and the Titans' fate.
As for the Tirispius, they acted differently depending on their personalities.
Ti Zhou and Ti Gong frowned and pondered for a moment, then shook their heads helplessly.
Ti'an and Ti'xiao ran to the balance scale, opened the Hundred Realms Gate, and teleported over an alchemical nuclear bomb, the Twilight Prism, placing it on the scale.
“动了动了。”
Tian excitedly pointed to the chains that had started to sway again, and the red bangs covering her right eye bounced up.
"This works?"
Miss Saint's actions left March 7th completely bewildered.
"What is that?"
Its exterior is a crystal like amber under the twilight, and its interior contains a sealed core, making it look like a rather extraordinary alchemical creation.
Krydella couldn't help but feel a little curious.
"Clean and practical alchemical weapons; you'll see them when you begin fighting the Black Tide."
Qiong thinks so.
Using Gatling guns and missiles to fight the internal war in Onphalus would be enough.
Using nuclear weapons to wage civil war between humans is too much of a bullying tactic.
Titi once stated that Twilight Prisms should not be used lightly in conflicts between city-states unless Titans join the fray.
"Tixiao, one more."
Seeing the shift in the balance, Tian nudged herself with her elbow.
"Wow!"
Ti Xiao, radiant with joy, opened the Hundred Realms Gate once more, sending over the second Twilight Prism.
The core difficulty of the Twilight Prism lies in the pseudo-philosopher's stone. Making this thing is quite difficult and the process is complicated. Only the master craftsman, Vilvi, can make it by hand.
