I nod at Ciel's words in understanding.
Even I think the same way regarding the Harbinger Pathway.
One thing this whole revelation has taught me is that nothing comes without a price. The invincible power of Leviathans has the cost of lifespan attached to it.
It's no wonder we require something to supplement our existence and curb Deficiency, especially when we keep expending lifespan to use our powers.
Others may see us as invincible deities, but that is far from the case. This great power comes with its fair share of problems.
Life is balanced that way.
The greater the power one possesses, the greater the freedom they are able to obtain, the higher the cost is to achieve and maintain.
Hence—
'My Harbinger Pathway surely has its own hidden caveats. I should be careful…'
If I had Backflow like Zarius, I could somehow preserve lifespan. After all, that's what he used to live so long.
