"Although it's not as convenient as the Star Cup, where we can directly modify the data at the source, this method of modifying the reality by adding layers is still a new approach."

Roland observed everything around him carefully and pondered.

If the physical universe is considered as the original layer, the phase is the new layer superimposed on it.

It is another form of existence in the world, with an independent existence.

This special way of existence allows the residents of the world to easily borrow the powers superimposed upon it.

And by completing the rituals and requirements that match that phase, and using the relevant spells, you can achieve great results at a small cost.

In the best-case scenario, ordinary people without magical powers can initiate world-changing rituals.

Just like having a generous boss at home, he will always reimburse most of your efforts.

No...the entire world's power system may be based on this foundation.

Aspects are beautiful forces.

In addition to the reliability of having people on top, in this world, different power systems will not experience abnormal weakening like Xing Yue due to the progress of the times.

Theoretically speaking, it is normal even if there is a spectacle such as voodoo vs. alchemy that is impossible to see in Xingyue.

And this scene is simply a fantasy for Xingyue.

A large part of the strength of magicians comes from the magic base they are good at. This large-scale server woven by faith and history is like a magic net. It makes it easier for magicians without talent to use magic. Restrictions were imposed on them.

The foundation formed by concepts that have been eliminated in the development of the times may directly collapse, causing the family's hundreds of years of accumulation to be destroyed.

A relatively niche foundation in terms of communication will be crushed by a large foundation in terms of efficiency and ability. For example, a magician who uses primitive spells will 80% be defeated by a modern magician at the same level.

The Holy Church relies on the Bible, the world's largest magic foundation, to become one of the two poles of the other world on its own.

Even a great magician like Matou Zouken, who can enter the Hall of Valor, will inevitably use and develop second-level magic after leaving the foundation of his hometown.

But phase does not have this drawback.

Because they are essentially another world superimposed on the present world, although the structure may be completely different from the present world, and even the round sky and square earth are the truth. Heaven and hell are no longer conceptual existences, but clear realities.

These real-life aspects may create distance between civilization and the demise of tradition.

But for those who borrow their power, this is negligible.

From this perspective, all spells in this world may be called magic.

"I see."

Roland looked at the world in front of him, feeling a little confused.

"Such a misguided approach that cannot be traced to its origin is the source of trouble for the world's barriers."

The source of trouble.

Although this comment is a bit bitter and condescending, it is Roland's truest thought at the moment.

The power of aspects is beautiful, but too much.

So many unfading existences are superimposed on such a small plane, which can only mean one thing.

They are intertwined and rubbing against each other every moment.

The collision between the worlds will still cause waves due to different systems and possibilities, but between these completely different phases, only sparks will fly.

And these sparks will all splash into the reality that serves as the lid and turn into an invisible fate.

From good or bad luck, the order in which the store serves food, the miracles of birth, encounters and separations, and even people's death.

The operation of all things in the world, the cause and effect from the past to the future, are all controlled by these invisible hands.

It is not as eye-catching as a disaster from heaven, but invisibly, the variables of a person's fate, by chance, are likely to become an unchangeable destiny under the influence of sparks.

"Moreover, the magicians in this world seem to be getting things wrong even when they are wrong."

Roland shook his head and sighed.

Although the worldviews are different, in Roland's understanding, there are roughly three aspects when using spells.

Refining the magic power from the vitality, that is, the small source of oneself, using the magic power of a part of the large source in the environment, and then weaving the spell through the base plate or oneself, and finally achieving the result.

Therefore, when the Great Source declined and the Age of Gods perished, and this inevitable natural disaster occurred, Xingyue's magicians experienced a significant decline in the magnitude and effect of their spells because they were unable to pay the price of the Age of Gods' magic.

Weber's modern magic department was able to be established because of this factor. According to the usual timeline, in the end even modern magic will be completely replaced by a new generation of magic called spirit magic.

This is development that cannot resist the mighty power of the times and is in line with the influence of nature.

But the existence of phases negates this to some extent. This superposition method allows the magician three thousand years ago and the magician three thousand years later to produce the same effect on the same system.

Obviously, this method will greatly increase the friction between phases and allow more sparks to be generated.

But Roland is not unable to understand the thoughts of the native magicians in this world.

While it is possible to build from scratch, it is frankly too inefficient and it is much more convenient to refer to existing lore and legends.

For a magician who has enjoyed the convenience of phase from the beginning, there is no possibility that he will notice that this path has deviated.

What's more, what would happen even if it was discovered?

In the presence of aspects, magic is a reward of 'ten' at the cost of 'one'.

The remaining cost comes in the form of phase friction sparks that randomly inflict misfortune on others.

Although it is not impossible that this will happen to him, with a probability of one in seven billion, no one will give up this approach.

Instead of wasting time and effort trying to fight against the world's trend, it is better to find ways to avoid sparks and stay out of it.

Because the simple truth that taking a long way is the best shortcut, for a strong person who is born to walk on the high road, it is really like a fool's lie.

After all, until the end of the road to the summit, the native people are almost completely unaware of an equally simple fact.

Once this spark that has been rooted deep in the world is ignited, unless you have the power to stop it at the time, even if you later gain the power to control the world and reshape everything, you will not be able to reproduce it perfectly. .

Even Roland, who has always had the status of an outsider since he gained his power, almost got lost in shortcuts several times, let alone these local characters trapped in the world?

After realizing this, when looking at the distorted multiple phases, Roland only felt a kind of powerlessness and despair hidden deep in the world instead of chaos and power.

But soon, Roland expelled this feeling of pity from his heart and smiled to himself.

Even if the road has an end, on the way to the top, the beings in these cages will be stronger and freer than I am now.

Roland, who could only rely on dreams to maintain his existence, had no right to laugh at the other party. The potential of this path itself also made him quite tempted.

"Next, we just need to confirm the danger and value of this world through the strength of that One-eyed Princess."

Roland murmured.

In the new world, Roland's usual practice is to collect information through the environment and characters, and double-checking.

But the water in this world is quite deep. Out of caution, Roland did not want to expose too much of his information.

When entering here, his position and subsequent fate were all located above the surface phase, and the greatest gravitational force attracted him there.

No matter where Roland goes next and how many changes he creates, he will definitely meet the blond one-eyed girl.

Except for the special existence of the Star Cup with omniscience and omnipotence, this destiny is unstoppable.

The Key of All Souls has a personality that transcends this world, and its hidden functions are enough to deal with the alarm systems of almost all worlds.

As long as Roland doesn't make any big splash about it, such as taking on the identity of the Devouring Beast, or eating the divine marrow, even from a high-dimensional perspective, nothing unusual about him will be noticed.

In this case, actions such as exposing one's power at will or running away are very likely to leave traces.

Therefore, following this established destiny is the best way to make yourself ignored.

"Ta, ta, ta."

Intermittent footsteps came from the other end of the alley.

Roland stood there peacefully, raised his head expectantly, and used his own vision to observe the girl with blond hair and one eye.

Then, his body froze.

Even the brain couldn't help but shut down for a moment.

But before this state lasted, he was forcibly awakened by that cold voice.

"Are you that man's accomplice?"

The blond girl with one eye also stopped, looked at Roland who was standing in front of her, and asked calmly.

At this moment, Roland raised his head belatedly and continued to stare at the girl with one eye.

Under that petite body, there is an essence that can make people feel suffocated.

The end of the road.

The end of life.

An existence that exhausts the limits of magic.

If I had to give her a name, I'm afraid it would only be this name.

"——Devil"

"Oh?"

The girl wearing an eye patch seemed to take Roland's whisper as the default meaning.

"Since you know the existence of the Demon God, it seems that there is no need to say more."

The girl's eyes narrowed slightly.

She stretched out her hand and made a gesture of grasping it, as if grabbing an invisible gun.

Then, she waved the invisible spear.

Chapter 386 Othinus and Roland

When the girl made a gesture of holding the spear, Roland had already given up the fight.

Because as soon as that melodious voice came to a conclusion, a bone-gnawing chill rose up in his body.

Intuition is constantly sounding the alarm, and strong danger signals from the perception are pouring into the mind from the spine one after another.

If he hadn't witnessed the power of the apostle of the highest heaven, it wouldn't be surprising even if his body screamed like teeth.

If the intact body existed, Roland would also consider buying time to activate the Key of All Spirits, but the tentacles of the dream world neither have this ability nor the need.

Therefore, he just quietly admired the absolutely unbeatable monster in front of him.

It was a slender and ethereal girl who looked to be only thirteen or fourteen years old.

There is nothing wrong with her appearance. Her skin is fair and flawless, and her facial features are straight and perfect, like an exquisite Western doll.

The girl wore a witch's hat with a wide brim, and a black three-point leather jacket under an open fur coat.

She wears an eyepatch on her right eye, and her eyeball is as clear and translucent green as the blue sky.

The hair that naturally falls down to the shoulders like waves shines like gold under the sunlight.

This beauty as delicate as porcelain, under this mysterious and alluring dress, should have been as ethereal and mysterious as a fairy.

But what is even more irresistible than that natural and innate charm is the majesty that overflows from that petite body and makes people's hearts shake.

It's too bad. With such a contrasting appearance and temperament, doesn't it make people want to see her acting coquettishly?

Roland thought to himself.

After being defeated by the Winged Snake and the Apostle in succession, Roland's ability to withstand pressure has been developed to a level that he himself feels is a bit subtle.

So much so that in the face of such an enemy, desire actually overtakes fear.

Having said that, this statement is now at least half a joke.

Roland did not dare to determine the future, nor did he think that he could not surpass the other party.

But if the conditions are limited to the present, even if he is in his prime, he will be inferior to the girl with one eye in front of him in a pure weight competition.

In other words, the main god Odin.

All the information just obtained from the field of vision revealed this name to Roland.

The wisdom from the Godslayer allowed Roland to know a lot about the undisputed god-king of the Asa clan.

Symbolizing the lofty rank of the God King, the one-eyed God of Death.

As the person in charge of war, this god-king has remarkable character traits.
