Chapter 29: The Ultimate Troops of the Divine Triad
The Absolute Realm Universe is a vast expanse, filled with unimaginable power and purpose. Floating majestically at its pinnacle are the three castles that represent the core of the Divine Triad's authority: Absolute Castle, home of Ashborn, the Absolute Celestial Being; Umbra Citadel, the Shadow Monarch's fortress; and Eternis Draconis, the domain of the Dragon Monarch, Sung Su-Ho. These castles sit at the highest point of the realm, their grandeur overshadowing everything beneath them. Below, the Planet of Apostles and the Planets of the Heavenly Soldiers orbit in silent reverence, each dedicated to fulfilling the divine will of the Triad.
1. Apostles of God
Hundreds of thousands of these angelic beings stand as the generals and commanders of the Divine Triad's forces. Born from primordial light, they are perfect embodiments of order, power, and justice. With six wings, gleaming silver armor, and one-edged spears or swords, they command vast armies with an iron will. As governors of all realms, they oversee the affairs of the multiverse, ensuring that each domain is kept under the watchful eye of the Divine Triad. At the frontlines of every battle, they lead their troops with unshakable determination and divine strength. The Apostles of God are not mere warriors; they are the celestial architects of stability and order.
2. Dark Apostles
In contrast, the Dark Apostles are born from primordial darkness, their bat-like wings, cat-like eyes, and colorful, ethereal skin marking them as beings of mystery and stealth. Their numbers rival that of the Apostles of God, and they serve as the spies, scouts, and assassins of the Triad. Silent as shadows and swift as the night, they operate in the hidden corners of the multiverse, gathering information and eliminating threats that might otherwise disrupt the cosmic balance. In the darkest corners of the Absolute Realm, the Dark Apostles lurk, waiting for the perfect moment to strike, always under the command of the Divine Triad but with a freedom in their operations that makes them all the more dangerous.
3. Heavenly Soldiers
The Heavenly Soldiers are a formidable force, numbering in the billions. These beings, born from the sacred fruits of the World Tree, are the backbone of the Divine Triad's military might. They are composed of countless beings with white skin, white hair, and angelic forms, wielding one-edged swords or spears. With two to four wings on their backs and dressed in gleaming silver armor and robes of white, they are the foot soldiers and warriors of the Triad, carrying out orders with unwavering loyalty. While they are under the direct command of the Divine Triad, the Apostles of God and Dark Apostles can call upon them when needed, bringing their immense numbers to the frontlines or into the thick of battle.
4. Shadowkins
The Shadowkins are a race of beings created by Sung Jin-Woo from the lesser fruits of the World Tree. They live in the Shadowverse Universe, a realm existing outside the normal flow of time and space. These beings, numbering in the billions, include high humans, high elves, and high dwarves—each possessing remarkable strength and resilience. They are the residents of the Shadowverse, a reserve force that Sung Jin-Woo can call upon when needed. Though they are primarily guardians and defenders of their home realm, the Shadowkins also act as a reserve force for the Divine Triad, ever ready to answer the call for battle.
5. Dragonkins
The Dragonkins, created by Sung Su-Ho from the lesser fruits of the World Tree, are a race of high dragons, high drakes, high wyrms, and high wyverns. These powerful beings, numbering in the millions, inhabit the mystical realm of Draconis Lux, a land steeped in the ancient magics of the Dragon Monarch. They are the residents and reserve forces of the Dragon Monarch, their formidable dragon hearts allowing them to call upon incredible power when the need arises. The Dragonkins are not only fierce warriors but also protectors of their home realm, standing as a testament to Sung Su-Ho's legacy and the strength of his bloodline.
6. Shadow Lords
The Shadow Lords are among the most terrifying of the Divine Triad's forces, numbering in the billions. These materialized shadow soldiers, created by Sung Jin-Woo, possess black hearts and the ability to reproduce, giving them an unyielding presence. They are not only physical manifestations of the Shadow Monarch's power but also bear the ability to create their own shadow armies. Spread across countless realms, the Shadow Lords inhabit their own different dimensions, where they grow and train. Their immense power, coupled with their ability to multiply, makes them an unstoppable force that serves as the last line of defense for the Triad.
7. Fiery Dragon Lords
Similar to the Shadow Lords, the Fiery Dragon Lords are materialized fiery dragon shadow soldiers created by Sung Su-Ho. With dragon hearts that burn with intense power, these beings are formidable in their own right. Like the Shadow Lords, they can reproduce and create their own armies, inheriting not only the power of the Shadow Monarch but also that of the Dragon Monarch. The Fiery Dragon Lords are spread across various realms of Draconis Lux, where they reign supreme as warriors and protectors. Their fiery hearts make them the perfect match for any enemy that dares to threaten the realm.

Together, these ultimate troops form the foundation of the Divine Triad's might. Their power is unmatched, their numbers vast, and their loyalty unshakable. The fate of the multiverse lies in the hands of the Divine Triad and their legions, each of whom has their own crucial role to play in the balance of creation and destruction.
