Extra's Death: I Am the Son of Hades novel Chapter 642

Chapter 642: Infinite Potential

"There’s more?" Leonora raised an eyebrow.

He nodded.

"A lot more. After all, if I’m the only source of every technique, then nothing I create will ever surpass me. My Path needs room to grow."

He paused, then added, "That’s why I’ll give the ability of Resonance to everyone connected to this universe.

"When they train and master the skills, the Resonance will rank up the skills. That way, even though the skills originally came from me, their growth will be based on their own effort."

"Wait a minute."

Leonora was stunned when she realized what Nameless Death was doing.

"You... you’ll be able to copy those stronger versions of the skills, right?"

"Exactly," he said. "Using the Abyss Mirror, I’ll absorb those improved versions. In other words, they’ll do the training, and I’ll learn from the result."

She laughed.

"That sounds unfair."

"Maybe," he shrugged. "But it’s efficient."

Nameless Death had millions of techniques.

He couldn’t train all of them. There wasn’t enough time.

But this way, each of his techniques would grow stronger­ — thanks to the people who would use them and increase their rank.

Moreover, Nameless Death would be able to copy all techniques of anyone who connected to his Path, whether they were in his simulated universe, or not.

Leonora looked at him for a long moment, then asked,

"So that’s the first step?"

"Yes."

"And the second and third?"

"Second step is adding limitless evolutionary potential to everything," he said. "Not just to the races or skills inside the simulation, but to the Path itself. It must never hit a ceiling."

"And the third?"

"The third step is to combine everything into a unified system—so that my Path isn’t just a collection of scattered pieces. It will become a living ecosystem of growth, evolution, and learning. Something I can stand on for the rest of my journey."

"I... see. I understand it now"

She didn’t. It was clear by looking at her face.

Nameless Death chuckled softly. He wasn’t offended.

"You don’t need to understand it now," he said. "I’ll show you later."

Leonora gave him a flat look, then sighed.

"You better. I’m not built for this much theory."

With that, she left the forge, leaving him alone with the flickering shadows and the faint, pulsing cube in his hand.

The Womb of Devil — or rather, what used to be one.

Turning it into a Firmament was proving more difficult than expected.

Nameless Death had already failed millions of times.

Each attempt drained his energy and left him mentally exhausted, but he wasn’t discouraged.

If anything, he found a strange comfort in the process.

Still, there was no point wasting time on a single task.

So, he began to multitask.

He created eight more Wombs of Devil using the Shadow Core Concept.

Coupled with the extra one he made earlier, now he had nine empty Womb of Devil. The tenth one was being turned into a Firmament.

Nameless Death lined up all nine empty Wombs of Devil in front of him.

Then, he used the Nightmare Element.

With his Stage 4 mastery over it — which he got from devouring a monster— he could create illusions that had mass, sound, and even reactive properties, at least within confined spaces.

’I can manifest the nightmare illusions into reality with Stage 4 Mastery.’

While these manifestations weren’t ’true’ objects, they were passable for pseudo-true objects.

And that was enough.

He started constructing simulated universes inside each cube using Nightmare Element.

Each world had skies, mountains, oceans, continents, planets, galaxies.

’Nine simulated universes should be enough.’

Each universe would follow a different structure for class progression.

One world would offer new classes at fixed intervals: level 10, level 20, and so on.

Another world would allow people to gain multiple classes, but new skills would only unlock once previous ones were mastered.

He drummed his fingers against his knee.

’Even if a world develops fast, the people inside it still need time to grow, live, and die. It’ll take decades to see the first real results.’

Too slow. Far too slow.

It was already this slow, and geniuses who would create skills will appear only once in a while.

’At this rate, I can forget about getting new skills from my Path.’

Even if a genius could create a skill, the Heavenly Record needed to give that skill to others to increase its level.

Only when the skill was sufficiently strong could it help Nameless Death.

Waiting for so long would waste too much time of Nameless Death.

So, Nameless Death came up with a new idea.

’Limitless infinite evolution.’

That was the key.

If everyone had infinite potential, then the number of geniuses wouldn’t remain fixed.

Potential would no longer be a matter of chance or talent.

’With infinite potential, people can grow strong limitlessly.’

Everyone, regardless of origin, would have a shot at breaking limits and reaching new heights.

’Strong people will have a much higher chance of creating a new skill. So it’s good for me too.’

But giving someone infinite potential was easier said than done.

Unless... he just made everyone a Heavenbreaker.

It sounded crazy when he thought about it the first time.

Heavenbreakers were supposed to be rare — anomalies who shattered the constraints of the world.

They were beings who could walk beyond what was possible.

But what if he could change that?

What if he could design a race from scratch?

A species where every newborn, every child, every adult, was a Heavenbreaker?
