Ark Undead

"Flame brought light and the beginning of life; light itself is a characteristic bestowed by civilization. This is what the book says, but there are still some points I don't understand."

As Tianhuo spoke, he used his pen to jot down what he had found and the ideas he had come up with in his notebook.

The way Tianhuo looked was very similar to those scholars who studied magic that the Undead had once seen.

The immortal man sat down next to the sofa and looked around. The area around the sofa was filled with books.

It's clear that Tianhuo has been staying at home these past few days researching these things.

Such a diligent attitude towards studying magic truly lives up to Tianhuo's long-standing reputation as a genius.

However, excessive research will definitely have some impact on the body. Especially since Tianhuo's physical abnormalities have become so obvious.

"You should rest."

The Undead said in a low voice that he did not agree with Tianhuo's research method.

Although the intensity of the flames from the heavenly fire exceeded the immortals' expectations, this method of research ultimately affected their own bodies.

Judging from her appearance, she must have not rested for a long time; dark circles under her eyes have almost spread across her entire eye socket.

"I never stop halfway through researching materials. My train of thought will be interrupted, and the next time I go back to look at the materials, I might not even remember what I was thinking."

Tianhu shook his head and continued his research.

After being suddenly awakened by the immortal's words, she immediately began the investigation that has been ongoing so far.

Although she did find some things, she felt it wasn't enough, at least not enough to support her ideas about her magic.

Seeing that Tianhuo still maintained such enthusiasm, the Undead didn't want to interfere with her work. However, Tianhuo's current state was indeed a bit excessive.

Then the immortal raised his right hand.

"Skyfire, Miss. Look here."

Upon hearing the Undead's words, Tianhuo instinctively looked up at the Undead.

As soon as she looked up, she saw the undead raising a small flame that was burning slightly in his right hand.

"?" At that moment, her already tense nerves suddenly paused for a moment, and then slowly relaxed.

The flame in the Undead's hand gradually spread, transforming from a golden flame into a pink ball of light, reflected in the eyes of the Heavenly Fire.

Taking advantage of the moment when Tianhuo was distracted, the Undead reached out and pointed the pink ball of light at Tianhuo. The ball of light gradually turned into a thin line in the air and entered Tianhuo's forehead.

"Now is the time to rest."

The Undead's words were like a supreme command. Tianhuo stood there stunned and nodded slightly. Then she put down the book in her hand, leaned back, and fell onto the sofa.

Her soft body leaned weakly against the sofa, finding only slight support.

Feeling the soft touch, Tianhuo could no longer resist her instincts and slowly closed her eyes.

Spells (Charm)

Although this spell sounds strange, its essence is to disrupt the target's thinking ability, making them obey one's words.

Perhaps it is because the first person to use sorcery was a woman, and her actions gave the sorcery a feminine glow.

Tianhuo was breathing evenly, nestled deep in the cushions behind the soft sofa, looking like he was sleeping soundly.

The Undead sighed, then covered her with the coat that Tianhuo had placed on the sofa. He then put away the book she hadn't finished reading, separated it with a pen, and placed it aside.

We should not study fire too much, because the essence of the study is not how powerful it is, but the uncontrollability of fire.

It is important to understand that in the sorcery system, fire is life itself, and all spells that rely on fire are using fire to interpret the essence of life.

If Tianhuo continues her research according to the path he has indicated, it is very likely to affect her mental state, and in turn, her own level of life.

However, this also shows that Tianhuo's obsession with fire magic surpasses that of many others.

At the very least, attempting to study the nature of fire without having even come into contact with sorcery is something that cannot be done without a certain level of understanding.

Currently, Tianhuo's mental state is still unstable. There is no better way than rest, and the Undead's desire to communicate with Tianhuo must be postponed even further.

Seeing that the fire needed time to rest, the survivors became too lazy to go out again.

It's still morning. In a whole day, no one knows where they can go unless they die.

So she simply picked up the book she was reading right there in Tianhuo's room and started studying it herself.

The Undead are also somewhat interested in what Tianhuo is researching.

Even the Undead only have a rudimentary understanding of Originium Arts.

So he sat on the sofa next to Tianhuo, listening to Tianhuo's slow breathing while flipping through the books.

The sun set, a day had passed, and the immortal had turned to the last page of the book in his hand.

This book contains the insights of many users of Originium Arts, including explanations from Originium Arts masters from various countries.

The Undead even found the Heavenly Fire's insights inside.

At such a young age, Tianhuo is truly remarkable for leaving his mark on such a major publication.

As the Undead gently turned to the last page of the book in his hand, the Heavenly Fire beside him finally opened his eyes.

"Ugh... Hah..."

Tianhuo stretched and yawned widely.

When Tianhu woke up, he was still a little dazed. After stretching, he kept rubbing his eyes.

Her flaxen hair was loose and disheveled from sleep, and her ears drooped down.

It's clear she hasn't had a proper rest in a long time; she actually slept for so long.

"The Undying, sir?"

Tianhuo saw the Undead beside her and murmured in a puzzled tone.

They still haven't realized what happened.

"I'm awake."

The immortal put the book he was holding on the table and then poured her a glass of water.

Tianhuo was still a little confused. She stared at the Undead, watching him go to get water, then walk over and hand it to her.

"Thanks..."

Only after the Undying Man sat back down on the sofa did Tianhuo look down at the water in his hand.

The fire has only just begun to subside.

"How long have I been asleep?"

"Twelve hours."

The immortal pointed to the wall clock next to him; the hour hand had already completed a full circle.

"Nine o'clock in the morning. Nine o'clock in the evening."

Tianhuo took a sip of water and finally calmed down, recalling her previous research on flames.

"Oh, right, my research materials!"

"Here you go, it's safe, it's fine."

The Undead pointed to the book on the table that Tianhuo had been reading before going to sleep, showed it to her again, and then cut it in half with a pen.

Tianhuo finally felt relieved, leaned back on the sofa, and let out a soft sigh.

She took a sip of warm water and looked at the undead beside her.

"So, it was Mr. Undead who put me to sleep?"

"it's me."

The Undead made no attempt to conceal anything; he simply nodded and then spoke.

"Your condition is dangerous. Therefore, I'm telling you to rest."

Honestly, having a man you barely know in your own home, watching you sleep for so long, would send chills down anyone's spine.

Tianhuo was the same; she was stunned for a moment, then shrank back a little further into the sofa.

Moreover, the immortals were the source of Tianhuo's slumber. If it weren't for the immortals, Tianhuo could have held on for a little longer.

Unaware of Tianhuo's appearance, the Undead tidied up the book Tianhuo was reading and placed it next to the sofa.

His mind was filled with thoughts of how to persuade Tianhuo to control his research desires.

"Miss Skyfire, I must remind you. Flames can injure enemies, but they can also destroy oneself."

As he spoke, the Undead looked at the Skyfire beside him.

"If you can't control yourself, you'll only hurt yourself. A fundamental principle for sorcerers: never become addicted to fire."

The Undead didn't realize what Tianhuo was thinking. When he saw her appearance, he thought she was worried that his obsession with studying fire might have some side effects.

"Don't worry, get some sleep, and once you feel better, you can continue your research."

"..."

After hearing so much from the Undying Man, Tianhuo was completely bewildered.

"So, you just let me take a nap?"

"if not?"

The immortal began to wonder, why was she being asked to do something if she wasn't supposed to be sleeping?

After hypnotizing her, are we going to make her continue searching for information?

What kind of lunatic would do such a thing?

The two stared at each other. Tianhuo carefully examined himself and found no discomfort, not even in his clothes.

She tried to stand up, but having just woken up, her legs felt slightly weak, and she plopped back down on the sofa.

"have a good rest."

The Undead picked up the hat next to him and put it on his head.

Given Tianhuo's current situation, now is not the right time to ask for her consent to participate in activities in her name.

"I'll be going now. I'll come back to visit in a couple of days."
