Chapter 460: Origin Spirits
There was a reason why the Realm Lord couldn’t directly interfere in the internal affairs of the beings inside the realm... at least not after becoming a true Realm Lord.
It was not a restriction, but a fundamental law of existence.
A Realm was not just a place, but it was a self-contained world with its own order, balance, and flow of fate.
The moment the Realm Lord started meddling directly, that balance would collapse, causing instability in the natural order of life, death, karma, and providence.
More importantly, the realm’s beings would never truly grow if their destinies were constantly altered by the will of a higher existence.
That was why, after becoming the true Realm Lord, Ethan would only be allowed to shape the world, create the conditions, and influence the environment... but never interfere directly in personal battles, grudges, or the rise and fall of individuals.
Of course, if the realm faced destruction from an outside force, or its core order was being broken, that’s when the Realm Lord could step in... not as a ruler, but as the will of the realm itself.
Until then, he could only watch.
’I am not the King of the Realm but the Lord of the Realm.’
Ethan muttered as he flew with a calm expression, already making plans before his one hour ran out.
The difference was subtle... yet everything.
A King rules over his subjects.
