While everyone was waiting for Lux to break out of the Blood Dome, little did they know, his soul was actually not in Elysium.
Before the Champions of Light had even raided the Necromancer's Ancestral Lands to kill him, the Half-Elf's soul was already in the Celestial Realm.
In fact, he was currently seated on a chair, facing several Gods, who were debating the restrictions that must be imposed on him.
"You all, how about we just give him all the good things, and get this over with," Max, who was Lux's Patron God, said in a casual manner. "You guys aren't even in Elysium, so why are you getting in the way of his breakthrough?"
"Max, you know we can't do that," the Goddess, whose name was Nemesis, replied in an annoyed tone. "Just like the two girls who represent Extreme Luck and Extreme Misfortune, a balance between things is necessary to maintain equilibrium in the multiverse."
Nemesis dealt with everything equally and governed over the excess happiness and sadness in the multiverse.
Lux had become a Unique Progenitor, which was something that even the Heavens had to pay attention to.
There had been no instances where a Necromancer had wielded the power of the Divine, and because of this, they all decided to have a meeting in order to determine Lux's abilities so that they wouldn't break the boundaries that could destroy the balance between Solais and Elysium.
Max sighed before glancing to the side where several Gods were lined up, forming the High Council that would decide Lux's fate.
There were three major Gods that needed to approve Lux's Progenitor Class in order for him to have a successful breakthrough.
The first one was none other than Nemesis, the Goddess that presided over the meeting.
The second one was the God of Death, Thanatos, who currently had an annoyed look on his face.
Lux found the God of Death intimidating at first, but this impression didn't last long. It was simply impossible to be intimidated by Thanatos at the moment.
The reason?
There was an adorable girl seated on his lap, who seemed to be around five to six years of age.
Similar to Lux, this girl had red hair. However, her eyes were blue, and she looked extremely cute, making the God of Death's intimidation null and void.
Last but not the least was the Jade Emperor, who was one of the Gods that presided over the Celestial Realm.
This trio made up the Gods that were currently looking at Lux's stats and checking which parts would need balancing.
Of course, there were other Gods present as well, including the God of Necromancers and the God of Games, Eriol.
"Everyone, please take a good look at this boy's Status Page," Nemesis said as she waved her hand, creating a projection for everyone to see.

"As you can see, his stats have exceeded the normal stats of an E-Ranker, which is the entry point for Rankers after breaking through the Initiate Rank," Nemesis explained. "Most Low-Rankers start with 10,000 combined stat points, yet he has exceeded them by leaps and bounds.
"He also has the skill Death God's Aura [EX], which gives a 100% increase in attack and defense, raising his attack power to 500%, making him the strongest Low-Ranker in Elysium."
The God of Necromancers chuckled before making his opinion known.
"The reason why Progenitors are called Progenitors is due to the fact that they have started a new path," the God of Necromancers stated. "Because of this, it is perfectly normal for them to become more powerful than their peers, even with those of the same Rank. I don't see anything wrong with this setup."
The God of Necromancers gave Lux a devilish smile, which made the Half-Elf give the God two thumbs up in his heart.
Clearly, they were on the same side, and the other party was trying to help Lux keep all of the powers that had been bestowed upon him.
"You have a point," Nemesis replied after half a minute. "Progenitors indeed have these perks given to them. Do you have any objections, Thanatos?"
Before the God of Death could even reply, the little girl on his lap spoke up.
"Grandpa, is he my Papa's brother?" the adorable girl asked innocently. "Is he my Uncle?"
"They are only of the same race, Harriet. They are not relatives," Thanatos replied. "Compared to your father, William, this guy is just a fledgeling."
"I see…" Harriet replied. "Grandpa, I don't really understand. But don't be mean to him, okay?"
"Okay," Thanatos said in a gentle manner as he lightly patted his granddaughter's head.
He then shifted his attention to the Half-Elf and spoke his opinion as well.
"Although there is no precedent, there is a first time for everything," Thanatos stated. "I don't have any objections regarding this matter. The boy can keep the world's blessing and all the benefits that come along with it."
Nemesis rolled her eyes at the God of Death, who had turned a doting grandfather ever since his daughter, Erinys, had given birth to his granddaughter.
Since he was the God that presided over the dead, his vote had almost guaranteed that Lux could keep the blessings that were given to him by the World of Elysium.
The Goddess then shifted her gaze to the last God, who still hadn't made his opinion known.
The Jade Emperor eyed the Half-Elf with a narrow gaze, making Lux's heart tremble.
"Originally, I would have opposed this boy from getting so many blessings from the world," the Jade Emperor said. "However, this Half-Elf has shown compassion to my subordinates in the past, and it has left a lasting impression on me.
"Since that is the case, I have no objections to this boy getting the things he got from his Profession. However, there is one thing I'd like to propose."
The Jade Emperor then waved his hand, and a spinning wheel appeared in front of Lux.
"Everything must have a weakness," the Jade Emperor stated. "There can't be any absolutes in the world. So, let his Fate decide what his weakness will be. Boy, spin the Wheel of Fate. Wherever it stops, that will be your one sole weakness. Do you find this agreement fair?"
Lux, who had remained quiet ever since the meeting started, nodded his head.
Truth be told, although having a weakness was something he didn't want to happen, he had a feeling that the Jade Emperor had already made a compromise.
Since that was the case, he agreed to spin the Wheel of Fate and see what kind of weakness Fate had prepared just for him.
