Also consider that a race might not have the traits of the race below them in the evolutionary ladder. For example, Goblins have their precocity, Ogres have cumulative damage resistance, and Apostle Lords have the ability to ressurect fossils. The Ogre may not have the precocious traits of a Goblin (in Rou's case, Oro and Argent inherited it; Oniwaka may have too), and the Apostle Lord may have neither of their unique traits. It's not a sure thing that a child of Rou's will inherit all the traits he has accumulated (like how only the twins' kids inherited the orbs with Opushii getting a couple due to her Lord race and Nicola became a Crest Master) evolving from one race to another, so having them start low is fine since they're sure to climb up very high and gain more racial traits that way with Rou guiding them.

I think the Fairy King (Oberon) who became the Demigod of Deep Green could have been of the Living God species himself like Rou? Since one would think that someone who undergoes apotheosis instead of evolution is probably a race that's as close to divinity as possible. Of course, he was just a "King" and Kings/Emperors seem to be below an Overlord, but it's possible that a Fairy King is the upper tier of Kings an elf could rank up to, like how the Fire Lord of Rou's 18 Warlords ranked up into a different kind of Lord species without managing to become a King or Emperor. Anyway, I'm digressing with this theory here. All I'm saying is that it's not impossible for other people in this setting to become semi-divine like Rou has. It's probably just extremely rare because of how difficult it is. Like the mass rank ups the goblins of Rou's tribe underwent after he was born.
