"... Results?" Tilly took the list doubtfully and glanced at it. "She has made great progress."
"Indeed." Roland nodded. "Lucia White comes from a merchant family in Valencia. She has a certain foundation in writing and arithmetic. Plus, she has a good understanding of natural theory classes. That's why she has such good grades."
"I don't doubt what you said about a deeper understanding of the world promoting ability evolution." Tilly twitched her mouth. "But what does this have to do with magic bite?"
"According to my observations of Lily, Leaf, and Mystery Moon, the evolution of their abilities will also increase the upper limit of their body's magic power capacity. I think this effect has a lot to do with the level of understanding of the world." Roland explained his conjecture in detail based on what Agatha had said about the difference between the ancient High Awakening and the evolution of the abilities of the witches in the small town. "They are essentially the same thing, but the effect of a partial or isolated epiphany is far less effective than a comprehensive and holistic understanding of the world. Mystery Moon is an excellent example. Although she's a member of the Witch Union, she completed her evolution through epiphany, so her magic power level is far less than that of Anna and Soraya.
Tilly pondered for a while and soon understood what Roland meant. "You mean that Miss Lucia's magic power has always been at a low level, and her body has always adapted to this level of magic power, whether it's during normal times or on the Day of Awakening. And this time, when she reached adulthood, she happened to trigger an evolution at the same time, which caused the magic power in her body to suddenly increase several times, making it far beyond the level that her body can accept? "
"Roughly, but I tend to think these two are different." Roland counted with his fingers. "For magic power, the key points of improvement are the Day of Awakening, the Day of Adulthood, and the evolution. The effects seem to be the same, but I think the first two are forced to increase, while the last one is an active improvement."
"Why do you say so?"
"Because the ability evolution will not cause the symptoms of magic bite," the prince said slowly. "If there is no difference between the two, the rapid increase of magic power during Anna's evolution will only kill her. I assume that there is a warning line for the magic capacity of a witch's body. If this limit is exceeded, the body will feel the pain of the magic bite. Daily training can gradually increase the upper limit, which is also the purpose of emptying magic power before awakening. "
"Cordon? Interesting theory... "Tilly said thoughtfully." Do you think that Miss Lucia's magic power increased too much during her evolution, which led to the lack of space reserved for the forced influx of magic power into her body on the Day of Awakening? So she finally exceeded the limit and caused this accident? "
"That's right. Like Lucia, Anna underwent her first evolution when she reached adulthood. However, her previous magic capacity was already very astonishing, and her vigilance against the backlash was also much higher than that of ordinary witches." Roland paused for a moment. "It also explains why Lucia went back to normal after Spear withdrew the agitated magic power. The magic power didn't belong to her in the first place."
"Your point... can explain a lot." She tucked her feverish hair behind her ears and supported her chin with her hand. "Why do witches have different forms of magic power even though they have the same origin? Why can the magic power in the outside world only be seen when a witch awakens? It's because the magic power will only become part of a witch's body after she accepts it."
"Awakening can be seen as attracting magic power, but in the end, only a small part of it can be left. Evolution, on the other hand, is to expand and strengthen this small part of oneself. The wider the understanding, the better the strengthening effect. As for the fact that there is no limit to the number of times a witch can evolve, how can there be an end to exploring the world? "
"I'm suddenly a little curious."
"What?"
"If you were a witch, how vast would your magic power be after the evolution?" Tilly covered her mouth and laughed.
Roland almost choked on his own saliva. Although he really wanted to experience the wonders of Extraordinary abilities for himself, he would rather not pay such a huge price.
"Can I take a copy of your textbooks back to Sleeping Island?" She raised her eyebrows.
Although her tone sounded very casual, Roland noticed that her right hand was gently pinching the hem of her skirt.
"Of course, no problem." For such a basic question, he would definitely not make a mistake. Generally speaking, the more decisive the better. "If we can help the witches of Sleeping Island evolve, it will also be good news for Border Town. Not to mention, you're my sister. "
Then he felt Nightingale pinch his left shoulder hard.
"..." Tilly did not respond to the second half of the sentence. Instead, she nodded slightly and said, "Thank you. I'll leave now."
"Okay."
It seemed that he had been too exaggerated. Before getting a credible explanation, she might not be interested in this kind of flattery.
But to Roland's surprise, Tilly stopped at the door and turned around to whisper, "Sometimes, I wish you weren't my brother."
...
After Tilly left, Roland was still sitting at his desk. Her last words were all over his mind.
"I don't wish you were my brother. What does that mean?"
"Hey, are you stupid?" Nightingale appeared and waved her finger in front of him.
"What do you think she was trying to say?"
"How should I know?" Nightingale shrugged. "She probably thinks you're more suitable as an ally than a relative."
Roland naturally would not speculate in the wrong direction. After getting along with her for half a winter, he already knew the temperament of this royal woman very well.
"Does she want to say that she doesn't want Prince Roland to come back? Or is it simply because of my relationship? "
"Anyway, you're not her brother. Why do you care so much?" Nightingale turned over and sat on the table. She lifted her long legs, took out a piece of dried fish and stuffed it into her mouth. "And when you said that, I could see that you were lying without using my ability."
"Uh, is that so..." Roland touched his nose. "So the answer should be the latter?"
"In addition, since Tilly isn't your sister, is it okay to give her the Principles of Nature?"
"That's called the Theoretical Basis of Natural Science." The prince sighed. "Do you think she can't make a copy during the winter months? I'm willing to bet that she's already memorized the contents. Even so, she's still making this formal request to me. This is enough to show her attitude. "
At least from the perspective of political friendship, Tilly's sincerity was impeccable.
He paused for a moment and then said, "And Sleeping Island is mainly made up of witches. Even if all of them evolve, they still rely on the witches' power. But I'm different. This knowledge can not only help witches but also the people... I rely on the power of all people."
