"By taking over the Nightmare Domain, I mean that you're now in charge of the Nightmare Domain you created."
"So it's like a territory and a lord?"
Sunders nodded. "You're right."
Angor's eyes lit up. "So I'll be in charge of this Nightmare Domain from now on? Just like Little Red's Nightmare Domain? "
"Yes."
"Then it's like a Sorcerer's Garden, right? Apart from the fact that I don't have any laws, I can use the Nightmare Domain to store my belongings. I don't even need a space storage! "
Sunders chuckled. "You wish."
"But I can't?" Angor was disappointed.
"Don't compare a Nightmare Domain to a space storage. They're fundamentally different."
Sunders sent a voice transmission to Angor, "I don't know what a Nightmare Domain is because I'm the one who came up with it. You can think of it as a special illusion. Since it's an illusion, it doesn't exist in reality. It exists in an illusory world, or even in a dream. It's a concept of space, but not a conceptual space. "
Angor was even more confused. What's the difference between a concept of space and a conceptual space?
"One is real, while the other is virtual." Sunders tried to simplify it further.
"But I'm in a Nightmare Domain right now, right? I'm a real being. How can I step on a virtual being? "Angor still couldn't figure it out.
"It's a little complicated to explain. Reality and illusion, time and space, all concepts are relative. Let me give you a simple example. When you went to Nether City, the time in the Nightmare Realm stopped, while the time in the wizarding world flowed. You made a round trip to the Nightmare Realm, but to outsiders, you never left. So the Nightmare Realm you've been to isn't real? "
"This is an academic topic that is commonly discussed among adepts. If you are interested, you can read the thousand-year-old revised version of the Great Warlock of Distortion, Bazeer's Theory: Spacetime and Reality.
Angor didn't fully understand what was going on, but he had a general idea.
The Nightmare Domain was an illusory spatial concept that was closely related to the Nightmare Realm and had a series of Nightmare Realm properties. However, it did not belong to the Nightmare Realm. It was a mezzanine space.
Since it was Sunders who first proposed the concept of Nightmare Domain, he did not know much about it. He only knew that Nightmare Domain was connected to the Nightmare Realm. He could create a Nightmare Domain, but he couldn't enter the Nightmare Realm from it. The monsters in the Nightmare Realm, on the other hand, could leave the Nightmare Realm and enter the real world. Therefore, whenever a new Nightmare Domain was created, it would attract many monsters from the Nightmare Realm, including some super monsters.
The Nightmare Domain was a special illusion for Sunders. Combined with the concept of Nightmare Domain, illusions could reach unimaginable heights, which was why Sunders was the best illusionist in the entire southern region.
However, the Nightmare Domain was connected to the Nightmare Realm. If they were not careful, the powerful monsters in the Nightmare Realm could easily enter the wizarding world. It was a double-edged sword for Sunders. It was a powerful weapon, but it also had serious consequences.
In order to solve this problem, he researched for decades and finally got a hint of inspiration from "plane fusion" and "plane splitting."
After creating a Nightmare Domain, he could use a special method to sever it. By separating it from the Nightmare Realm and merging it with the wizard, the wizard would be able to cast illusions without having to worry about the big monsters.
This was the so-called "taking on a Nightmare Domain".
There were many benefits to taking on a Nightmare Domain. It could allow an illusionist to control illusions to an unimaginable level in an instant. However, there was a price to pay. Taking on a Nightmare Domain came with great risks.
Nightmare Domains shared the same characteristics as the Nightmare Realm. When a Nightmare Domain was combined with someone's Nightmare Domain, they could easily lose their sense of reality and illusions. Therefore, it was best to reach a certain level of mastery in illusions before one could take on a Nightmare Domain.
Flora was a special case. She was not an illusionist, but she could take on a Nightmare Domain because of Little Red. This was an individual case, and it was Flora's own destiny. She could not provide a reference.
"I thought you could inherit the Nightmare Domain when you become a wizard and have a certain level of mastery in illusions. But now you've created a Nightmare Domain as a beginner apprentice, and you almost let that woman out … Sigh!" Sunders put on an angry expression. He thought Angor was the least troublesome one among his three students. Angor might not be a wizard yet due to his foolish values, but he could always teach him something. Sunders would not mind even if Angor spent his life as an academic wizard.
However, he did not expect Angor to be so bold as to poke a hole in the sky! If Sunders was not inside Twilight Well right now, the monsters from the central area of the Nightmare Realm would come to the wizarding world. The consequences would be unimaginable!
Think about it, he had only taken a few steps out of the door when he met a legendary wizard who wanted to kill him. When Sunders finally found a quiet place to hide, a legendary being who was thousands of kilometers away could easily sink the entire continent with a single spit.
How many people in the southern wizarding region could survive in such a situation?
Sunders had no choice but to break his centuries-old principle and come to Angor's rescue to clean up Angor's mess. How could he not be pissed off?
Not only did he have to solve the problem of the Nightmare Realm monsters, but he also had to give Angor a great destiny.
He did not care about such benefits, but he was still pissed off when the person who destroyed the Nightmare Domain did not have to worry about it.
What made him even angrier was that the person who destroyed the Nightmare Domain looked so innocent. He was waiting for Sunders to praise him with a smug look that said "I saved the world".
Sunders tried his best to suppress his anger. "You created the Nightmare Domain, so you have to bear it."
Angor nodded. This was a great opportunity, and he could not refuse it.
"If you don't, you'll die," Sunders reminded him.
"I know. Thank you for your concern, sir." Angor gave him a "I understand" look.
Sunders was speechless. Who cares about you?
"Sir, since you're so concerned about me, I have a favor to ask. May I ask?" Angor looked at Toby who was still unconscious in his pocket with a concerned look.
Sunders looked at Angor and Toby again. He knew what Angor wanted to ask. Sunders sighed in his mind. Greya chose the right person for Toby.
"Go ahead," Sunders said gently.
Angor looked up with a pair of bright eyes. "Um … I really can't get 100,000 magic crystals in half a month. Can I borrow some from you, sir? I'll pay you back as soon as possible! "
Sunders clenched his teeth and clenched his fists. Greya, you're wrong about him. This guy is an ungrateful bastard.
"No." Sunders did not show any expression, but he forced the word out through gritted teeth.
"Apart from the 100,000 magic crystals you owe Twilight, I'll pay you about 150,000 magic crystals for the materials you need for your Nightmare Domain. I'll give you one month, or I'll double the price if you miss it. " Sunders did not plan to talk about the materials, but since Angor brought it up, he did not mind venting his anger.
"What?! Why was there another 150,000 magic crystals? Sir, I'm just a level-1 apprentice. I can't pay it back! "Angor's eyes were filled with tears.
Sunders spoke in a plain tone, "You did a good job with that music box. Keep it up. "
With that, Sunders turned around and left.
Did Sunders want him to continue making music boxes to pay off his debt? But even so, he could not pay 100,000 magic crystals in half a month! He couldn't even gather 150,000 magic crystals in a month!
The only thing he wanted to do now was to stop Sunders and tell him that he didn't make the music box! Go check it out if you don't believe me!
…
Sunders brought Angor to a corner of the auction hall to prepare for the Nightmare Domain.
"Get ready. We're about to begin!"
"Wait!" "Will Twilight Auction continue when I'm in charge of the Nightmare Domain?" Angor asked worriedly.
Sunders nodded. "Yes, if everything goes well."
Angor did not know how long it would take, so he left his bone card with Sunders.
"Sir, I'm No.187. If I'm not done by the end of the auction, please help me claim my items … "Angor spoke in a serious tone.
Sunders took the bone card and checked the balance. He grinned. "So you're No. 187. Flora will be surprised when she finds out."
Angor's forehead was covered in sweat.
"Alright. As long as you're still alive, I'll get them for you." Sunders was going to ask why Angor wanted to buy a material that could only be refined by a master, but he decided against it.
"Let's begin!"
"Wait!"
Sunders frowned. "Are you regretting your decision now? Are you worried about losing the Nightmare Domain? "
Angor shook his head and put on a pleading look. "Sir, I have a very important favor to ask. Can I ask it?"
"No." Sunders' expression darkened when he recalled Angor's request.
"I want you to buy the eyeless man for me, sir, no matter how much it costs. Even if it's only half a month, I'll find a way to pay you back, sir, "Angor continued as if he did not hear Sunders' refusal.
Sunders was speechless. Why are you begging me if you don't listen to me?
In the end, Sunders decided not to ignore Angor's pleading eyes. "Are you sure you're willing to pay any price?"
Angor nodded. "Yes. I owe it to Toby." He already knew about Greya's whereabouts, but he did not tell Toby about it for various reasons. Toby had been helping him ever since he entered the wizarding world. As far as Angor was concerned, he owed Toby a lot.
Sunders sighed. "A Gourmet Wizard, even if you're just an apprentice. You can't imagine how much it's worth. Maybe more than all the magic crystals you owe. Are you sure you want to buy it? "
"Two hundred thousand?! That expensive?! "Angor looked up and quickly rejected the offer." Forget it then. "
Sunders was speechless. That's your decision?
"Professor, can you please remember who bought the eyeless man for me?" Angor asked.
"You want to rob someone?" Sunders would feel better if Angor really wanted to do that.
Angor shook his head. "I'll buy it from someone else when I have enough money."
