Why was the King's Sword Technique considered a superior martial art compared to the Boundless Sky Sword?
It was because the Akrest Clan's vision of an emperor, the figure they deemed worthy to stand above the heavens, was one who transcended human limitations.
Humans cannot ascend beyond the heavens.
Thus, to the Akrest Clan, an emperor was not merely a ruler but a transcendent being—a superhuman.
The King's Sword Technique was a martial art designed for such beings.
It was meant for the chosen few, those who had the right to rule over humanity and rise above all others.
It was an innate privilege, passed down through bloodlines.
It was nobility, a birthright, and an extraordinary talent.
Theron had believed this his entire life.
That he was born with the bloodline and qualifications of an emperor.
