Maybe it reached the next evolution and became a Being of Law... who knows. If someone like Shiva invested in its growth, then its speed of advancement must have been terrifying. Also, some Primordial Divinity Stage Gods could also traverse the Astral Boundary, though with severe restrictions, because their God Slot is bound to a particular plane, but they still could.

After returning to the Fuerig Castle, I turned my attention to one of the last things I needed to do before the Planar Conquest.

That thing was unlocking the Clan Trait of the Gremory Clan, The Devour.

The Architect was running a deep-scale analysis for more than two years, practically until I transmigrated here. With several experiments I have conducted on prisoners and criminals, from which a few had dormant Clan Traits, I was able to learn many things.

I even got some books from Zekram that he got who knows where. One of them was certainly interesting. The Book of Lucifer was an amusing name when I thought about it, but it greatly described how the first generation of devils was created and how the Clan Traits worked.

Also, some theories on how to awaken the sleeping Clan Trait. Of course, it also recorded the possibility that some devils might not inherit the Clan Trait. That was tied to the bloodline genes inherited from the bloodline of parents. It may happen from time to time; that child may not have had them at all or a tiny amount, so it couldn't possibly manifest the Clan Trait.

[Analyzation process upon the Bloodline of Gremory. Possible solutions: 1.]

Sounded the elderly voice of an Architect in my head.

"1?! With all advanced knowledge of the Solar Federation and some bits from the Aeldari Empire upon Genetical Engineering, you have come up with just one solution?!"

Now I was a bit angry and nervous. One solution means, that if it fails, I have no other option. Maybe I could search for someone on the level of Being of Law who is well versed in magic, alchemy, and genetics to do something, but that was now out of the question.

[Yes. Based on information gathered in my database, combined with those obtained in this Universe, mainly from the Book of Lucifer, the reason why the Devour Clan Trait is dormant in your case is due to its conflict with the Dark Light Clan Trait.]

Explained Architect, and I immediately understood, as realization struck me like thunder from the clear sky.

"The source of all bloodlines for devils is the Heart, not? Bloodline Heart, if one Clan Trait is too dominant, it could overpower the second one, and Dark Light is as of Darkness Element as it is of Light Element, so it could easily overpower Clan Trait that is pure of Darkness Element. On top of that, Active Clan Traits are tended to be more aggressive compared to the Passive Clan Traits in terms of the behavior of blood. So the solution would be..."

I talked to myself as I stopped in the middle.

The story has been illicitly taken; should you find it on Amazon, report the infringement.

[Yes, to create a new Heart in your body that could accommodate Gremory Bloodline. If I have complete STC, I could probably come up with more solutions, but alas, current technology is not sufficient.]

Said Architect.

"Constructing the STC is not something I can do with my current abilities. In the plane, probably only Asgard and maybe, Heaven have enough resources and advanced tech to do that."

I said back.

The Architect was MTC, short for Main Template Controller; if he had access to the STC, Standart Template Construct, he could manufacture anything as long as he adjusted the blueprint within several hours.

Unfortunately, the construction of the STC was still very far away. If I had STC, I wouldn't need to depend on Arcane Mechanical Automatons to do all the work, STC would construct the parts, and Arcane Mechanical Automatons would just put it together, saving much time.

"And tell me, how will I create another Heart in my body? Not talking about moving bloodline genes to that Heart! This is the purely mad solution."

What the Architect proposed was something of extreme difficulty for my current abilities.

[Heart could be easily cultivated from cells of deceased devils that would serve as biological material, combined with some magic rituals, that shouldn't be a problem. Transplantation may be smaller as there is a 34,5987% possibility that your body will reject a newly germinated Heart, even if it is cultivated from your DNA... a lack of data to use on devil physiology. Moving the bloodline genes... there is a spell for something similar recorded in the Book of Lucifer, though it would require an enormous amount of Demonic Energy to cast. At least several Ultimate-Class devils in Energy Reserves would need to be powering that spell.]

Explained Architect. As I listened, it seemed problematic and complicated. But if it worked, it would be something fascinating.

It would give countless devils chances to awaken dormant Clan Trait and have two Clan Traits simultaneously. Not that devils like that don't exist now; they existed but in minimal numbers. It was sporadic for a devil to manifest two Clan Traits; basically, it meant they had a bit of luck, and most importantly, their Clan Traits were compatible with each other, so they wouldn't clash or something.

"Order Arcane Mechanical Automatons to start preparations. I will go and gather Ultimate-Class devils needed to power up the spell."

I said to Architect. In the end, the temptation to awaken the dormant Clan Trait was too big. Having another Clan Trait, especially one like Devour that could constantly enhance my Energy Reserves by devouring the energy of corpses, was phenomenal.

I had five Ultimate-Class generals under me, and all of them were Ultimate-Class of energy reserves, but the problem was that I could not move all of them to one place at the same time.

It was a risk.

"Fallen won't do anything for the time being."
