This makes zero sense, you are getting too much into Daozen (or LucifeR)
Also, the whole point of being that spiritualy powerful is that you already have surpassed the 'devil' and even deities
How does it not make sense?
You're not correct about the spiritual power thing.
Spiritual power remains uncorrupted as a force only when it is in service to something other than yourself.
Utilizing chosen one levels of power simply to exercise a feat of strength or get something you want or for the sake of power itself is not an uncorrupt form of power.
And unlike other forms of power, the consequences of misusing spiritual power is quite severe.
You are not "greater" than the rest of the the spiritual universe even if you are amazingly granted power beyond the devil somehow. Because if that power is meted out, it is meted out for you to be a tool to keep balance in the universe or perform an incredibly difficult task on behalf of the universe.
The moment you lose humility in the situation, you begin to contemplate how great you are with respect to everything else out there,
you will see that power fade away, or even worse, be redirected at you.
That's why not everyone will be chosen.
It's not "your" power. you are borrowing it to serve, because that is what a spiritual king does.
So what doesn't make sense?
My only point was that the story of the nobody resembles the story of the antichrist and the prophecy of the new age
and that doesn't necessarily make him "bad"
but the resemblances are obvious
