"Whereis this place?" Hazak was confused upon appearing in Layer 1, noticing that it was standing atop a tiny island situated in the center of a pond. The pond had crystalline water with a mild greenish-blue hue to it.

Leaves danced across its surface while the sounds of birds chirping resounded throughout the place. Hazak looked around, seeing a thicket of trees surround the forest on all sides, with the canopy of trees being large enough to blanket out the sky.

Each tree was spectacularly large. Hence, their canopy covered the sky atop the pond, preventing Hazak from seeing beyond. It didn't wish to take action immediately, wishing to wait for the others when suddenly, its heart thumped, causing the sounds to resound in its ears.

And over time, the sounds wereincreasing?

"Ack!" Hazak bellowed in pain as it began to sweat while something seemed to be changing in its body, causing unimaginable pain as its skin peeled over as patches of it fell on the ground.

Right at this moment, Krune arrived, becoming alert as he noticed the screaming figure of Hazak, shouting, "What happe"

He stopped abruptly, noticing the changes happening to Hazak's body, flabbergasted. It was obvious based on the changes as to what was happening.

Hazak wasgaining a gender.

Every demon on Layer 2 was genderless, lacking any of the body parts to facilitate any mating of sorts. So, even when they roamed around naked, it didn't feel odd. After all, there was no reason to cover themselves.

They didn't have the emotion of shame inherent in them that only those possessing certain mating organs possessed. And now, Hazak's face was flushed red as it screamed in pain, experiencing numerous changes in its body.

"What happened?" Feifei arrived at this moment, asking Krune in alarm upon seeing Hazak thrashing about in pain to the extent it began to bleed profusely.

"Hazak is gaining a gender," Krune replied amidst the confusion, unable to decide what to say about the situation.

Suddenly, he was urged by an instinct of sorts, something that he had lost after arriving at the Sub-Realm and turning into a mortal human. "Say, would Hazak be a man or a woman?"

But Feifei didn't answer him, suddenly staring at him in shock, shouting all of a sudden, "Krune! Your body!"

"My body?" Krune asked in surprise, just about to look at his hands to see if something had happened, when he noticed that he didn't have any hands. Rather, his changes felt alarming but familiar all of a sudden.

His body naturally hovered in the air, taking on a form that he had taken on when he first saw Feifei.

Laying down on his hammock made from clouds was the old man from before, calmly observing everything that happened in the Sub-Realm as he sipped on some drink, one that he had personally brewed.

Similarly sleeping beside him on other hammocks were four other Gods that were slacking with imposing grandeur. As Gods, slacking off was their favorite pastime. Surprisingly, they waged competitions with fellow Gods on who was capable of slacking off the best once every millennium.

Suddenly, the old man that was observing the Sub-Realm trailed over the group that left Layer 2, seeing them at Layer 1, suddenly noticing Krune's body morphing.

"What the fuck?" The old man suddenly spat out all the juice it was drinking, spraying it evenly over the other four Gods, causing them to sit up in disgust, protesting in return.

But he didn't reply to them, screaming as he smacked his head. "I really should have scanned them using my Divine Sense and probed all their secrets. This surprise is too much for my old heart to endure."

"Why are you overreacting?" Another God mocked him and calmly focused sight onto the place of observation, exaggeratingly widening his eyes as he exclaimed in shock, "Is that awisp?"

"Is that a wisp?"

"Is that a wisp?"

"Is that a wisp?"

"The lot of you really don't need to echo the same thing." The old man snapped back. "And besides, this is no laughing matter. A wisp managed to reach the God Realm. This is troubling news."

"I'm sure it'll be fine." Another God lazily replied, "He's just a fledgling now. Wisps are born defective, unlike True Spirits. They can never become a God. If we actually wish to deal with him, we can do so when he's at the Primal God Realm."

"Have you seriously forgotten about Wally? Do you wish for another wisp to break the balance of the Four Realms?" The old man snapped, saying in hatred, "As a wisp, Wally managed to become a God. What makes you assume there cannot be a second wisp that can do the same?"

"Wally was a special case." Suddenly, the voice of a God resounded. The moment they heard it, all the Gods turned silent. It was apparent that there existed a hierarchy even among the Gods.

Usually, a God was a manifestation of a Law, having turned into that Law itself. In short, they only represented one Law. However, there was one odd case in history, a God that became the manifestation of two Laws.

As to what its second Law was or how it managed to manifest itself into two Laws, even the Gods were unaware. After all, its second Law was something from beyond the Four Realms. It was a mysterious entity whose appearance was unknown even to the Gods. After all, every time it appeared, its appearance differed.

Even the Gods were unable to see through it.

Suddenly, a ping-pong ball bounced into the layer of clouds, hopping towards them before landing on a hammock that appeared for it, speaking, "This wisp is even more special than Wally. It bears an enormous fate on part with us Gods already. And...that would only grow in the future."

"This fella is named Krune." The ping-pong ball emitted mild laughter as it continued to talk. "He's currently the one favored upon by the Calamity Laws. So"

"Let's just wait it out and observe just what Luvile had brought for us. Maybe he's our hope to leave the Four Realms."
