EPISODE.72

Luther Raymond.

As the founder of the Raymond family, there were not many records of him even in the family.

The fact was that there was no explanation for why many records were not left, nor even a record of what his later years were like.

but.

Nevertheless, if we look at some of his few records, some of them are quite bold-.

‘Gongukgong (建國公) who contributed to the founding of Endymion together with the founding king.

‘An 8th circle master who was said to have unparalleled magic skills at the time.’

‘The wizard that Raymond has the most outstanding talent in history.’

and.

‘A great great mage who challenged transcendence after the end of the age of gods.’

This ‘transcendence dream’ was the originality magic that Luther Raymond left behind.

It could be said that it was not ordinary originality magic, but the magic itself that symbolized Luther Raymond.

According to tradition, Luther Raymond transformed into a huge tidal wave in a raging storm and became a lightning bolt in a pouring rain.

What made all of this possible was the magic of transcendence.

My name is Luther Raymond.

A by-product created by a great wizard in his quest for transcendence.

‘Revival as a magic itself by taking off one’s fetus as a human being. The outer law far beyond the borders of the world.’

I never thought I would see magic here in real life, which remained only in name in my family.

‘I was lucky.’

It was a probability that could only be described as miraculous.

Originally, it was not intended to take out this magic book, but it came along with it in the process of removing other land attribute magic books from the bookshelf.

‘I can’t believe that the book was a transcendental dream.’

If it hadn’t been for that incident, I might not have even paid attention to this book, in which the vertical part of the title was torn off.

Now that you’ve discovered this, you don’t have to worry about the only spell book you can take outside.

‘Of course, I won’t be able to learn it right away just by taking it out.’

No matter what you say, Transcendence Dream was the magic book of the 8th circle.

It was a high-level magic book that Russell, who had not yet reached the 6th circle master, could not dare to surpass.

However, the mere fact that it was a magic book left by the founder of the family was worth it.

All that was left was to memorize how many earth property spells within the time limit.

Regaining his distracted concentration, Russell buried his head in the book.

.

.

a few hours after that.

Russell rose from his seat.

The permit he had kept in his inside pocket was trembling.

It was a signal that the scheduled 48 hours were almost over and there were only a few minutes left.

‘I must go out.’

Russell, who got up, felt dizzy for a moment, but soon moved on with the magic book of ‘Transcendence Dream’ in his arms.

I headed towards the door of light, going back the direction I had entered.

My knees trembled with every step I took.

As if exhausted, the fingers holding the magic book also trembled.

It’s not actually exhaustion, but it feels like it’s equivalent to that.

It was a reward for not sleeping in a short period of time and consuming a lot of energy.

Hwaaak-.

When I went outside, the dizziness unique to warp gates flooded my exhausted mind.

‘Ugh.’

As if my role was over, the permit I was holding in my other hand turned into ashes and scattered.

Roaring.

There was one person who greeted Russell as if he had been waiting.

“It came out just fine. I am the youngest.”

It was Daria.

Russell pursed his lips, unable to hide his tired expression at the sight of such a teacher.

“…Have you been waiting here all this time?”

“No way.”

At that question, Daria giggled and shrugged her shoulders.

“Did this master seem so idle? I was just doing my job and came back on time.”

Her words didn’t follow through. I stopped talking and received Russell’s staggering body.

“sorry.”

Daria shook her head as Russell, who had suddenly been supported by his teacher, muttered.

“Oops.”

With a worried voice, he muttered while examining Russell’s condition.

“Looks like you haven’t slept for 48 hours and have been engrossed in reading the spellbook, right?”

“…yes.”

At the words of the teacher who saw through his condition at once, Russell smiled bitterly and nodded his head.

“I thought it might be the case with you, the youngest, but I never thought you would really do such an ignorant thing. Tsk tsk.”

Just as important as hard work is getting enough rest.

Even though she probably doesn’t know that fact, her youngest student sometimes looks like this.

Daria clicked her tongue as she didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the appearance of the youngest, as simple as an ox.

“If possible, I was trying to solve Vigo’s problem today, but I guess I’ll have to do that later.”

The issue of remarks referred to the right to choose one thing from the royal remarks.

“I know it’s cumbersome, but please…”

“okay. Judging from the state of affairs, it would be good to rest comfortably for a few days and at least three days later to enter Vigo.”

It would also take a period to review the magic books and collect the knowledge gained.

Daria, who had muttered and nodded, suddenly let out a smile.

“But… it’s a transcendental dream.”

“Do you know transcendence?”

“How many of the high-ranking magicians in the country do you think don’t know about transcendental dreams?”

Even though the name of Luther Raymond was vague, the magic of transcendence still remained as a legendary magic.

Transcendental Dream deserves high praise just for the fact that it actually achieved it, even if it is second to none of the novel ideas of transforming a

person’s body into magic .

Of course, it was a magic with a complex, difficult, and dangerous structure.

Daria added.

“I’ve been to the 6th basement floor several times, although the last time I went in was several years ago.”

He also said that he knew that transcendental dreams were kept on the 6th basement floor.

A few years ago, Daria would have already reached the level of an 8th circle master.

For her, Ruud Raymond’s magic.

Transcendence dreams (超越夢) could have been the footsteps or milestones left by those who walked before.

“But why…”

“Didn’t you come out with a transcendental dream?”

She giggled at Russell’s question and waved.

He lightly stroked the air with his unsupported hand.

“Do you think there could be anything more stupid and unsightly than forcing yourself into clothes that don’t fit?”

Hwaaak-.

The magic that flowed from her touch carves a thick line in the air.

Soon after, it began to differentiate, forming fractals in the form of countless branches.

“It’s the same with magic.”

Soon, the shape of the tree made of magic was completed following Daria’s touch.

“If there are a hundred wizards, there are also a hundred roads to transcendence. In that respect…the transcendence that Lord Luther Raymond pursued had a different direction from the transcendence I wanted.”

After staring at the magic tree for a while, she waved again.

He erased the shape of the tree growing on his palm and continued.

“I am the youngest. I won’t stop you if you want to master the ancestor’s magic, transcendence. Be careful.”

“…?”

“Is it because, as the name suggests, it was a dream I had on the way to transcendence? Transcendence is an extremely tricky magic. Even though that magic is the 8th circle, it is somewhat out of line.”

Russell knew one more kind of magic that was one step beyond the boundaries of the 8th circle.

‘Brahmastra.’

Brahmastra, a divine and 9th circle magic, was just that kind of magic.

‘Transcendence dream is magic born in the process of preparing for transcendence.’

Then, what was the Brahmastra made in the process of preparing, so it took on such a form?

It was a question that I dare not answer even when my mind and body are normal.

Needless to say, now that the mental realm is considerably weakened.

The moment when an unbearable question [心魔] is about to dwell in the weakened mind and body.

match!

Daria clapped.

“Let’s go back for now.”

Said, awakening Russell’s spirit.

“Maknae, you look very tired too, so you’d better go back and rest.”

.

.

all over again.

After being cared for by Daria, Russell sighed heavily as he rode back to his room in the carriage prepared by her.

“after-.”

The bed in the corner of the room continued to glimmer in his eyes as if tempting him.

A swarm of demons covering the eyelids.

I felt like I wanted to lie down on the bed right now and take a rest.

‘But I can’t.’

Nevertheless, Russell did not head to bed.

‘I can’t fall asleep right now.’

Instead of going to bed, I moved with superhuman patience.

I went to a chair instead of a bed and lit a small lamp at the same time I sat down.

Dig-.

Confirming that the light and warmth from the small lamp reached every corner of the room, Russell took out a pen and a wad of paper.

thud-.

A thick wad of paper is placed on it, and the desk trembles lightly under its weight.

Then, with ink on the nib, Russell transferred what was left of his mind onto paper.

‘I should write down the things I memorized before I forget.’

Six books of earth attribute magic that Russell remembered. One of them was, of course, ‘The Roar of the Earth Dragon’.

‘There is no need to record the entire contents without omission.’

I boldly omit the information that I already know and also exclude the unimportant parts.

All that needs to be left is the core theories and formulas that are the essence of the magic.

‘I shouldn’t miss the connection between magic and magic.’

As the saying goes, nothing is completely new in the world.

Most of the formulas of higher level magic were linked by partially transforming and improving them from lower level magic.

It is densely connected like a net and at the same time works organically.

In such high-level magic, the link between magic and magic formulas and formulas was quite important.

‘Is it a structure that derives A′ and A″ through the transformation of A’s formula?’

Although limited to the core content, it amounted to six books of the highest level.

Considering that the thickness of a high-level magic book was more than twice as thick as an ordinary book, memorizing and transcribing it was not an easy task.

‘I should be prepared to stay awake for at least one night and half a day.’

nevertheless.

Despite the fatigue, Russell’s eyes were shining brightly.
