Across the vastness of space and time.
In an unknown location filled with dense Essence of the Decretum of a Dimension, a slumbering Will was roused up as crimson essence surged and overflowed, a dreadful and undeniable sense of oppression whipping about as even the Essence of the Decretum trembled.
<To have lost a portion of will just like that...well, she shall see what he does. Meeting an Irregular is a rare and celebrated occasion as the others do not yet know...>
The rousing will was swimming in this immense liquified sea of dense Essence of a Decretum as her visage couldn't be fully seen, but a pair of eyes so deadly and beautiful could be seen as they shone with interest and ingenuity!
<Losing the Heart of Destiny to him also cannot be considered too much of a loss as...>
SHIING!
Around this barely perceptible being, two blazing stars formed as the luminosity they released was no less than the Heart of Destiny that had remained above the Kun Peng's Cataclysm Nest this whole time before disappearing right at the end of the battle.
<...it shall eventually return back to me. And if all else fails, you two will help me get your little sibling back, right?>
...!
The two dazzling stars flashed in a shocking manner as they released a subtle power, the deadly and beautiful eyes of this existence curving into a devilish smile as the stars faded.
This existence was a schemer.
She had plans on top of plans as just to leave a mark, she had chosen not to grandly announce her identity or prestige as she decisively made her move when she realized the Irregular was unbeatable with her current power, using a vast majority of her authority to paint the EMPYRAL appendage with her mark!
But if this didn't work, there was the Heart of Destiny.
And just in case the Heart of Destiny wouldn't work as its mysteries were too profound and its purpose could aid one greatly in hiding...
<I should also make a move in the Mirror and Dream Dimensions. His body seemed to be entirely illuminated by Dream Essence as the girl beside him should be from one of the two Royal Mirror Lineages...he may make his way to any of these dimensions soon enough.>
...!
To an existence like her, there were no coincidences or chance occurrences.
She had to create chances herself as she would make many moves to ensure success!
And even while she planned all of this, her mind was very clear as she knew what she wanted.
Even though a portion of her soul had been destroyed by him, she didn't turn wrathful or let her pride feel wounded in any way. She didn't deem this Irregular that had appeared before as an enemy, where if she had taken that route...
<It would be no fun. If one Irregular can cause the proliferation of countless Realities and even shake up the structure of Dimensions that made it easier for my expansion...what can another Irregular do?>
...!
Maddening light of power and authority raged in this unknown location, the Will of a Dimensional Hellion Ruler burning with might and Destiny as she made many moves and waited patiently!

At the same time, within Noah's Expansive Space.
Noah thought about the last and only words he heard from Lillith as he gazed at the massive Quintessential Treasure Cache and Randomized Loot Crates, as well as the dazzling colorful star of light above it all!
"Irregular, huh?"
This was a unique word to hear about himself as Lavalliere remained quiet when he said it.
Which of his qualities that arose would make him an Irregular?
His Mana? Destiny? Possessions?
He pondered over this briefly as he shook his head soon after.
He knew who he was as it didn't matter what others labeled him as...for he had too many titles!
What mattered the most...was that he was the Quintessential Kainos Emperor.
? And the heart of the Quintessential Kainos Emperor currently wanted to go through his Loot, and the one loot he couldn't take his eyes off of was not the Heart of Destiny that pulled everyone's gazes into the Kun Peng's Cataclysm Nest or the tricky EMPYRAL appendage- it was the Quintessential Treasure Cache!
"Open."
HUUM!
His words were light as the massive treasure chest released rays of gorgeous light, its opening being akin to Celestial gates unfurling before Noah's eyes as multiple items that were soon followed by prompts flew out of this dazzling chest!
Noah's eyes were bright as he could see a massive circular black structure fly out along with a heart shaking scroll releasing crimson waves of Dimensional Essence, a vibrant crystal that released profound waves of the Natural Laws of Reality…and even three crystalline Shards he had seen and dreamt of a few times!
The prompts for these items appeared soon after in his mind.
<The HERESY Relic Map of the Apollyon Dimension has been attained.>
<3 Ascendant Dimensional Shards have been attained.>
<Natural Law Nacre(Gravitation) has been attained.>
<The HERESY Relic Obsidian Queen has been attained.>
<1x Random Venerable Dimensional Bloodline Nacre has been attained.>
<25 Empyral Essence Regeneration Flasks have been attained.>
<5,000 Kainos Orbs of Transmogrification have been attained.>
<The DHARMA Relic Gravitational Reality Armament has been attained.>
<10 Empyral True Vitality Flasks have been attained.>
<The HERESY Relic Silent Killer has been attained.>
"..."
The prompts coming down were stupendous.
The items they represented…were utterly shocking as they even unveiled some new truths!
"HERESY…"
Noah spoke this new word that was attached to some of the items to come out of the Quintessential Treasure Cache, memories from the millions he had taken out swirling in his mind as Lavalliere replied calmly.
<When the Essence of a single Natural Law of Reality is infused into a concept, it can attain the Tier of DHARMA. If one is proficient enough and capable to infuse the Essence of a Decretum of a Dimension into a concept, they can instead birth HERESY Tier concepts.>
