[WP] Chapter 23 Time Traveler

[WP] Chapter 23 Time Traveler

At the moment when the life ring was formed, consciousness seemed to fly high in the sky again like a dream, seeing the whole world and touching the veins of the world. Compared with individual souls, the vast world is incomparably deep, incomparably terrifying, and incomparably vast.

But before he could see anything, he immediately returned to his body, making Shade, who was sitting on the sofa, realize what he was doing.

There is no need to look back again; the meaning of the two-spirit runes will be automatically known. These two runes represent the characteristics of the soul and the world's recognition of existence, which will not lie.

"The core rune in the center of the life ring can only be the brass [Enlightenment] rune, at least for ordinary humans, because the most powerful force of humans is civilization, and there is nothing special about them.

But believers favored by God may obtain the golden [Miracle] and silver [Blasphemy] core spirit runes when they take office, depending on God's camp. Those people are usually called God's chosen people or sons, and through some special and imperfect inauguration process, with the help of the power of [relics] to become a ring wizard, it is possible to obtain the black iron [Whisper] spirit rune, but this is a great hidden danger to the soul."

The doctor explained; his slow voice gradually pulled Shade back to reality.

Because Shade had completed his inauguration, Miss Louisa regained the right to speak, so she also added:

"Of course, there are other exceptions, such as the power left by ancestors, but this has nothing to do with ordinary people like us."

Shade nodded. Seeing him looking at the two of them, Dr. Schneider motioned for Shade to drink some tea.

"You look very bad, which is normal. The casting of the life ring is the transformation of the soul, and the pain is very normal. It takes a few days of rest to relieve. I didn't feel anything at the time, but I couldn't sleep that night in pain, as if someone was knocking on the gas pipeline in my head."

Although Shade didn't feel bad, he still picked up the teacup as instructed by the doctor and let the slightly hot steam hit his face.

"So, Mr. Schneider, Miss Louisa, the number of core runes"

Because of the voice in his head, the outsider didn't dare to easily confirm that he was normal, so he didn't dare to confirm the normal number of core spirit runes.

At this moment, Shade was trying to suppress his joy of successfully contacting the mysterious, but he maintained the most basic rationality and vigilance. He had already gained trust and could not show his abnormality.

The doctor showed an expression of "you really would ask this":

"The core spirit runes are usually within three, but according to the data of the academy, more than 80% are two. After all, a soul cannot have only one outstanding trait, but there are also unusual cases. The highest record is that in the 306th year of the Common Calendar at the beginning of the Sixth Epoch, a ring wizard with 7 core spirit runes appeared in Zarath Academy of Literature."

Shade no longer needed to pretend; he showed a surprised expression:

"How many rings did he become in the end?"

The blonde writer shrugged:

"I don't know; this person is just a small figure in history, and his name is not even recorded accurately. Oh, I know what you mean, but the number of core runes has little to do with the level of achievement. The doctor is a common case."

The doctor then showed his complete life ring again, with two brass spirit runes [Light of the Soul] and [Dream] in the center.

"Let me translate it. This is the light of dreams and souls. Generally speaking, the simpler the concept, the easier it is to interpret multiple meanings, develop and create all-round magic, and the more powerful it is. So for me, [Dream] is stronger."

Because the spirit runes are not in the contemporary language, the doctor also translated it. He didn't know that Shade interpreted it at a glance.

"I have three, but it's not very special."

As she spoke, white steam mist also appeared behind Miss Louisa. With the hammer's bombardment, a rotating brass ring with a square cross-section appeared, with three core spirit runes [Writer] [Play] [Another Princess] on it.

She explained the meaning of the three core runes and believed that "writer" was her best core rune, which matched her writing profession very well. Miss Louisa is proficient in the brass [enlightenment] element and is good at finding power in stories and legends.

"The language used by the spirit runes is the language of the past. If you can't find a translation method, you can only ask the owner of the spirit rune, and the owner will automatically understand the meaning of the rune. So Shade, where is your spirit rune?"

The doctor and the writer took the initiative to show their power; in fact, they also meant to reassure Shade that there was no need to hide it. After all, the core spirit rune is related to the college and major after admission.

"Time and space, Silver Moon."

Shade thought about it and thought there was no need to hide it. After the two words came out, he saw Dr. Schneider and Miss Louisa showing surprised expressions. He couldn't say that he was slightly pleased with it, but at least he felt happy about it.

"They are all quite broad concepts, which is good. The academy has recorded a lot about the magic of [Silver Moon], and [Silver Moon] can easily be used to develop various new magics. This spirit rune is quite rare, but it is not a niche. [Time and Space]. Are you sure it is [Time and Space] instead of [Time] or [Space]?"

The doctor stretched his neck to confirm.

"Sure."

Shade nodded. Although he did not encounter the plot of touching and exploding the crystal ball because of his high talent, it is obvious that his talent is not ordinary. Shade controlled his emotions and showed just the right curiosity instead of deeper thinking. These two core spirit runes seemed to have some kind of coincidence.

Especially [Silver Moon].

"Don't laugh."

He said it in his heart.

"Has [Time and Space] never appeared?"

Asking this question, the doctor and the writer looked at each other, and the latter explained:

"Of course, it has appeared, but it is quite rare, extremely rare. Even if all the recorded cases of possessing this core rune are added up, there are no more than five. And the number of ring wizards who have obtained the [Time and Space] spirit rune after taking office through contact with mystery and past knowledge is probably no more than 100 in history."

The doctor looked at Shade hesitantly.

"If it is only [Silver Moon], we would recommend you to join the School of Mathematics. You may become a thaumaturgical expert and spell master. But since it is [Time and Space], you will choose the History College, become a member of the investigator, join the time exploration team, and explore the secrets of the past.

Even if I don't recommend it, the professors of the History College will never let you join other colleges. There is no one more suitable for this profession than [Time and Space]. Stepping into the past, you will face more dangers, but you will also know more secrets. The secrets of the fallen old gods."
