Chapter 369: Chapter 92: Cutting Open the Heart, Black as Oil_2

“Come in.”

Wizard Selene interrupted her anti-eavesdropping for a moment to call out.

Link, who had been waiting outside her study, came in as soon as he heard her.

“Sit, wait a bit, there’s quite a bit of material.”

She signaled for Link to sit back down at his previous position. Wizard Selene searched through her memory, and began to look through her study.

She quickly found and summoned from corners of her study four disconnected smartbrains specifically used for storage of materials and documents. She stacked them up and handed them to Link.

“The top two contain related materials and documents; the bottom two have some of the original research drafts from Palo and me, which are about creating meditation techniques.”

Wizard Selene emphasized, “A lot of the content here, whether it’s the materials and notes, or our draft, are only for reference, not to be blindly trusted. Understand?”

“Yes, I understand.”

Link nodded, responding solemnly, then earnestly thanked her, “Thank you, Wizard Selene. Please also extend my thanks to Sage Palo for me as well. I’m sorry for any trouble I’ve caused.”

Wizard Selene rolled her eyes and said, “You can tell him yourself, I’m not bothering with contacting that annoying guy unless I need to.”

Link remained silent.

A boss’s woman can vent about the boss however she likes.

But he would not dare join in.

“Alright, get out of here and go back in that ride of yours that I’m a bit envious of.”

Wizard Serene, too lazy to adjust her own mood, waved her hand dismissively and grumbled, “Go on, get out. You’re really getting on my nerves, acting so much like that annoying Palo. Couldn’t you just take the easy route instead of insisting on creating your own meditation method?”

“Goodbye, Wizard Serene.”

Not wanting to hear more, Link immediately stood up to say goodbye and turned to leave.

He was worried that if he lingered, he would have to hear more complaints.

After leaving Wizard Serene’s villa, Link took out his “Phantom Coupe” and drove off at a relatively safe speed.

His privileges weren’t as high as Wizard Serene’s, so he wouldn’t dare drive recklessly.

From the North District Upper Ring City Boulevard, circling halfway around and going full speed towards the academy.

All went smoothly with no dramatic incidents.

After returning to the academy, Link began to pour his time and energy into two tasks:

Study the materials and documents received from Wizard Serene, particularly the original research drafts from Sage Palo,

And the two main courses he was taking in the senior division.

Knowledge is true wealth, but is often buried in a myriad of books.

“What is the essence of a wizard?”

“What is the essence of a meditation technique?”

“What is the essence of spiritual power?”

“What is the essence of a rune?”

These self-questionings at the beginning of Sage Palo’s research drafts immediately offer insight.

Link immediately understands where he needs to head in order to develop his own method of meditation.

To create a meditation technique for yourself, you must understand the origins and essence of the wizard, the origins and essence of witchcraft, the origins and essence of runes and their development, and the origins and essence of the meditation technique and its development.

Subsequent main tasks would involve learning about runes and constant trial and error.

The main content of Sage Palo’s research drafts are detailed records of multiple attempts and errors.

This includes hypotheses put forward by Sage Palo and Wizard Serene, why they were proposed, how they were verified, the detailed verification process, verification results, and analysis of the reasons for failure.

Yes, only records of failure, a brief mention of success.

A unique meditation method suitable for Sage Palo’s special circumstances was finally developed after three years of continual trial and error.

With successful precedents, Link is even more confident.

Especially as he has the advantage of standing on the shoulders of giants, giving him a better view.

However, no matter how far he can see, Link must still move step by step and learn little by little.

Starting with the origin of the wizard.

What is the origin of the wizard?

The first-year course “A Brief History of Wizard Civilization” mentions this slightly but does not adequately explain it.

The origin of wizards originates from the ancestors of humans who, in order to free themselves from the control of powerful demon beasts, suffered a great deal to kill and research the weak demon beasts.

This research includes, but is not limited to, dissection, eating, and making weapons.

Whether by chance or necessity, human ancestors finally discovered the source of the power of the demon beasts, and discovered the presence of runes and rune combination structures on their bodies.

Long-term consumption of demon beast meat resulted in the human ancestors’ spiritual power not being illusive and untraceable anymore.

The earliest wizards were then born.

They could not meditate, had no witchcraft, they used their own spiritual power to stimulate the primal rough rune artifacts made from demon beast skin, bone, eyes, and horns, invoking the natural ability of that demon beast, for fighting, for survival.

Only after the first Will Rune, which could be used to increase spiritual power, was discovered, did the human ancestors try to meditate and embark on the path of empowerment from within, rather than relying purely on external objects.

It wasn’t until the first complete witchcraft was stripped from a demon beast skin that the true wizard was born.

Therefore, what is the essence of a wizard?

In Link’s view, the essence of a wizard is a “scientist” who recognises the world, influences the world and transforms the world.

Witchcraft is the feedback from these “scientists’” recognition of the world and the strongest tool for influencing and transforming the world.

The magic tools are second.

Understanding the origins and development of wizards and witchcraft, it is not hard to understand what the essence of meditation is.

The essence of meditation is the use of runes, mainly Will Runes, to increase and consolidate spiritual power.
