In a direct clash, Father wins: 3 tiers of separation is a gap that DNA edges alone cannot close. DNA tells a different story: Father: constant growth arc, Ainz Ooal Gown: how much the universe protects them. These are different character shapes, not different power levels. Ainz Ooal Gown is the more complex character study despite the power gap: a pattern common in isekai where the weaker character carries more narrative weight.
