Simultaneous Travel: Becoming a Legend in the Heavens.

Chapter 196 The Omniscient Perspective

Amir's funeral was a simple one.

Apart from requesting to be buried next to Ms. Luo Yin, he did not make any further plans and only left his last words, asking for the simpler the better.

Sally and Andre followed his wishes, invited his friends to a banquet to mourn for a while, then closed the coffin and buried it along with his few belongings.

He put the wooden sword that symbolized their friendship inside as a companion, refused Sally and Anrui's attempts to keep him, and took a last look at the coffin that was gradually being buried by mud and sand, then Luke turned around and left silently.

The dead cannot be brought back, and the complicated procedures of the funeral are just for the living to see. He needs to pay more attention to the living.

It was almost sunset when Luke used flying magic to rush back. He stopped in front of his house, walked in and took a look, then relaxed a little.

Everything inside was normal, the servants were still doing their jobs, and no one reported any bad news after seeing him.

He gently pushed open the door. Trela ​​was sitting quietly by the window as usual, and turned her head when she heard the noise.

"You don't have to come back so early."

"I'm a little worried when I can't see you."

After hearing his words, Trela ​​smiled and said in a tone that was both angry and funny: "You should have said this more often before. Now I don't feel that excitement anymore when I hear it."

Lu Ke didn't respond, "You seem very relaxed today, did anything good happen to you?"

"…It's not a good thing. I just found out some things that I would have been worried about." Trela ​​pointed at the table.

"Someone sent something over and said you might need it. It's on the table."

Lu Ke walked over with a frown, only to see a pile of unmarked manuscripts on the table. He flipped through them and his expression became solemn.

It not only contains a lot of interpretations and translations of the "Bird of Time Chapter", but also records a lot about the understanding and observation of time, as if the owner of the manuscript has had the experience of peeking into time again and again.

Although future vision is not of much help against magic that can stop or reverse time for an individual, it at least makes him no longer have no thoughts.

"Who sent it?"

When Lu Ke asked this question, he had almost guessed the candidate. Based on the observation of time and the time magic, he hypothesized that there were only two people in this world. Excluding the unborn hero of the South, there was only one person left.

Shurahat the All-Knowing!
"He claims to be Shulahart and has no ill intentions, but if you stay here you will be attacked the next second you see him, so you can only leave your things here for now."

Lu Ke simulated the scenario in his mind and had to admit that it was true.

The demons are a group of intelligent but emotionless beasts. They understand that humans have joy, anger, sorrow, and happiness, and know the effects these emotions have on people, but they cannot truly experience what it feels like.

Mahat Future, one of the Seven Sages of the Golden City, became curious about human emotions and spent decades cultivating feelings with a city lord. The moment both parties recognized that they were friends for life and death, he turned the city lord and the entire city into gold.

And all this was just to experience the emotion called "guilt", but after doing all this he still felt nothing, only before he died he felt a different kind of touch.

Trusting the demons is a foolish thing to do, but the manuscript is indeed true...

Lu Ke frowned deeply. Regardless of why Shulahart wanted to help him, if he wanted to, he could have delivered the manuscript quietly.

Faced with a character who had read the script, Lu Ke had an instinctive rejection of anything sent by such a person.

"Did he say anything else?"

Luke walked over and used magic to check Trela's body. He didn't find anything unusual for the time being, but just to be on the safe side, he would like to ask a powerful monk to take another look.

Trela ​​looked at Luke quietly: "He also told me the time of his own death."

Lu Ke raised his head suddenly, and anger flashed in his eyes.

"Don't listen to his nonsense. There is no omniscient person in the world. The title of omniscient is just an exaggeration."

Trela ​​did not argue about this issue, but just looked at the flowers in front of the window. These were small light blue flowers called "Star Gradients" that were common in Barum. They were not particularly beautiful, but they were strong and did not require special care.

“They’re dry.”

Lu Ke snapped his fingers, and a simplified flower field magic was cast. The dead flowers and plants merged into the soil, and new flowers grew again at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"Magic is convenient, but there are some things that magic can't do." Trela ​​looked at Luke's actions with a hint of helplessness.

"I don't understand other things, but I still know the Codex of the Goddess. Are you studying time magic just because my life is about to end?"

Luke wasn't surprised that the truth was revealed; it was hard for people who lived together to have secrets, especially when they were together all day.

Trela ​​probably had already noticed it since he started looking through the holy text.

"There's nothing wrong with this. I haven't done anything illegal, and it hasn't affected my normal life."

In his previous life, he had seen many works in which there were always many characters conducting various forbidden researches in order to resurrect their loved ones. From a God’s perspective, he just thought it was crazy, but when it happened to him, he slowly began to understand it.

"Not just for you. If I can develop magic that can reverse time or make it constant, I will surpass Flame, the origin of human magic, and become the greatest magician in history, and forever."

Luke changed his mind to explain his behavior. "I think it's better to spend more time with me than to do this kind of thing."

Trela ​​shook her head slightly. "Compared to eternal life, it is more valuable to live a meaningful life in a limited time."

Lu Ke suppressed the irritation rising in his heart, "That's what humans say to comfort themselves. If it's true, why are there so many people pursuing immortality... or do you want to leave me?"

"You know the answer to this question. I just think that it is right to do the right thing at the right time. It is better to seize the present moment than to chase an unrealistic dream."

"unrealistic."

Lu Ke chewed over this description in his mouth again and again, and picked up the manuscript on the table with a determined look.

"I'll make it."

This is a race against time, and he is already behind. Time magic must be researched. Even if time cannot be reversed, it must be slowed down.

There will be a lot of follow-up work. He needs to study the manuscript carefully and start with studying a "sleepless" magic, which is relatively easy to accomplish.

Luke walked out of the room, closing the door along with the sigh coming from inside.

……

The progress of the research was not optimistic, there was still too little theoretical knowledge, and imagination was still insufficient. After confirming that he could not research time magic through normal means, Lu Ke chose another route.

Future Vision!
Through the manuscript, he reversed Shulahat's magic of observing the future, then observed his future self and brought back his future self's research results.

After absorbing this knowledge, continue to use future tense to repeat the operation in an infinite loop!
This is a bug-ridden behavior. Lu Ke doesn't know if it can succeed, but it is theoretically feasible!
After establishing the goal, Lu Ke began to reverse the future vision magic without sleep or food, but the progress was also slow.

This is a miraculous magic that is on the same level as the Seven Collapsed Sages or even higher. If the manuscript had not recorded all kinds of information in detail, and if Lu Ke himself had not had a good foundation and had been a person from another world whose horizons had been broadened, it would have been impossible for him to complete the reverse deduction.

Trela ​​watched Luke make various attempts day and night. At first, she tried to persuade him, "Don't work so hard. Your eyes are red. Your health is the most important thing."

"I see."

Lu Ke agreed to this, and his eyes returned to their former clarity the next day.

But this was not because he had a good rest, but because he used magic to cover it up.

So Trela ​​stopped trying to persuade him. She realized that Luke had reached a dead end, and it was because of her.

Such a result made Trela ​​sad, but she knew that she couldn't have too much emotional fluctuation at her age, so she could only try to control herself.

The only thing she could do was to take good care of her body so that Lu Ke wouldn't worry about her, and to give him more time, even though doing so would essentially waste the remaining time they had together.

Time passed quietly, and the news of Sally's death came two years later.

It seems that this is the case with all couples. When one falls, the other will quickly decline. Sally was even younger than Trela, but she declined rapidly after Amir's death.

This time Luke and Trela ​​both went.

An Rui cried his heart out at the funeral. He didn't understand why his mother left him so early. It took a long time for Trela, who had always treated him as half a son, to comfort him before he stopped crying.

Witnessing Sally being buried next to Amir gave Luke another boost, and after returning he put almost all his energy into research.

It wasn't until the fifth year that Luke finally completed the magic of future vision.

In the process of completion, he discovered that this magic was not complete, Shulahat seemed to have hidden something, and he could not see the future two hundred years later.

It doesn't matter, he doesn't want to become the second Shulahat, he just wants to use future vision to bring back knowledge from the future.

Without any hesitation, Luke used this magic.

"Show me my future."

He murmured softly, feeling his thoughts being pulled away, rising and rising again, and then he saw the whole picture of the world from a God's perspective.

He saw Fulilian hiding her presence in a forest, seemingly tracking something, and he saw the great demons trapped in the Demon King's Castle, whose anxiety and boredom were almost turning into reality.

The perspective rose again, and he saw an elven monk who was constantly migrating and wandering, and also saw the ancient elf Celia sitting casually on a gorgeous chair that looked like a throne.

As if she had sensed something, Celie raised her eyes, and the strongest person who had compiled almost all the magic in the world looked at him, and then the two of them moved away from each other.

His perspective was still rising, and he saw the various aspects of life of the people in the central countries, whether it was the corruption of the nobles or the hardships of the common people, whether it was the kindness that occurred in the little things or the malice that was spread.

This can be said to be God’s perspective.

Luke frowned at the large amount of information he received at once. He endured the pain and mobilized his magic. Time began to speed up in his eyes.

At the same time, countless branches appear, and a kaleidoscope of possibilities emerges before our eyes. There is no certainty about the future. If you want to obtain the information you want to know, you have to look at it one by one and try it one by one.

Lu Ke suppressed his restless heart, took a deep breath, and stepped into the first possible branch.
