Near Death Valley, which had already disappeared, Fernando, Hathaway and Bergner floated in the sky and looked at the devastation. They estimated the temperature and power of the explosion from the shocking traces and enormous craters left behind by the high temperature.
"If it was really an explosive spell, is the sun a planet where such explosions happen all the time?" Bergner asked in frustration.
It was not that he was hostile to 'fusion explosion', but when he thought that 'sun', which occupied a very important position in the Star Map of Destiny in the school of astrology, had finally shed its mysteriousness and revealed part of its mysteries, as a prophet, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.
After Fernando killed Demigod-lich, Bergner did not leave in fury, because according to Congus' reason, two living grand arcanists were obviously more important than a dead legendary sorcerer. If one were to consider the rules of the Congress without Congus' explanation, what Fernando did was even more right.
Perhaps it was because the Lord of Storm had always abided by the rules of the Congress that people forgot that his impatience and irritation were not only reflected in academic debates, but also his legendary class and nickname. It was not until he suddenly attacked that Bergner finally felt that it was reasonable. That was what the Lord of Storm should do. So, he accepted the result with a bitter smile.
Fernando shook his head. "Technically speaking, this is not an explosive spell. I did not find any special traces of traditional explosive spells here. There are only pure energy release and unimaginable heat."
He intentionally added the word "traditional" before the explosive spells of the school of elements. He clearly believed that this was a brand-new form of explosion that was close to the mysteries of the sun's light. Following this path, the school of light and darkness and electromagnetism could be partly included in the field of elements.
"Yes." Hathaway nodded, agreeing with Fernando's conclusion.
Bergner, who was not good at elements, sighed after hearing that. "I cannot imagine that Lucien Evans could've created such a spell, but I vaguely have a feeling that times are changing. Perhaps from this moment, no, since Lucien proposed the energy quantum theory, arcana and magic have entered a mysterious and terrifying era."
Fernando and Hathaway did not respond to Bergner's words, but it was not hard to tell from their silence that they were thinking about it. A prophet's words could not be ignored easily.
At this time, two figures flew over from afar. Fernando, who had been clenching his fists, loosened them quietly and scolded sternly, "You are so stupid this time! You didn't even know that someone had done something to you! You were forced into the Portal to Alternate Realm just like that! If you are so careless again, I think I'll have to collect your body. No, I won't even be able to find your body anymore! "
Lucien enjoyed the roaring storm that he had not seen for a long time. Seeing his teacher's angry face, he hurried to admit his mistake.
"Granny, why are you here so early? We thought that you would come at night or in the early morning. " Natasha often heard Lucien talk about her teacher's' roar '. She was amused by such a situation and was about to record it for her to mock Lucien later. But after a while, she couldn't help but change the topic for some reason.
Hathaway looked at Natasha with a much gentler face. She said casually, "We killed Congus and came through the Portal to Alternate Realm that he set up."
"You killed Congus?" Lucien was both surprised and delighted. He had been worried that 'Eternal Blaze' could not completely kill Congus who had a phylactery, and that there would be a lot of trouble if he escaped. He did not expect that his teacher had already solved the problem.
His teacher must've withstood a lot of pressure, right?
"He deserved to die!" Then, he restrained his angry face and said with a vague smile, "What's with your spell? The illusionary sun that we saw the other day must've been created by you too, right? What about the Silver Moon and the being in the World of Souls? "
"Master, you saw it too?" Lucien did not expect that his teacher could see it even though he was so far away. So, his speculation at that time was obviously missing the most important part. The world was more complicated than he thought.
Hathaway, who was standing next to them quietly, interjected, "Everybody saw it. Is it a legendary spell derived from the new alchemy?"
Having been studying the new alchemy, she was keener than anybody else.
"Yes. I discovered certain phenomena when I studied the decay of atoms and concluded a lot of things. After killing Congus for the second time, I grasped them and received the feedback of the world. I obtained the prototype of two legendary spells and triggered the scene that you saw. Later, with the power of the Silver Moon, I completed and released 'Eternal Blaze', or 'Atomic Fusion', the main body of the legendary spell." Lucien did not reveal the special theory of relativity and the mass-energy formula. Instead, he started from the experimental phenomena that would be encountered in the new alchemy.
The deduction of the special theory of relativity was actually not difficult. Considering the Congress of Magic's level and previous achievements, it wouldn't be difficult to propose it in a couple of years as long as anyone could overcome the inherent opinions. However, it was exactly because of the inherent opinions that Lucien did not dare to show the paper to his teacher immediately.
If the wave theory of light and the particle theory were the foundations of different schools and the components of the cognitive world and meditation, the views on time and space were one of the fundamental 'common sense' that every arcanist had about the world. They came from their daily, intuitive, and unmistakable feelings. For example, even ordinary people would have the feeling that time passed quietly without being moved by anything.
Therefore, for every arcanist, absolute, independent, and mathematical time was the foundation of their outlook on life and world. They generally believed that 'Time Stop', the ninth-circle spell, only froze part of the area and slowed down the movement. It was not a real manipulation of time, and it was similar to the sublimation of Slow.
The disruptive content in the special theory of relativity, on the other hand, was not the mass-energy formula but the relative space-time that it proposed. It seemed to be telling people that time was a function of speed and depended on matter. It was as disruptive as the energy quantum theory. In the meantime, its proposal also announced the end of 'ether'.
After all, the initial studies on fission and fusion did not require the guidance of mass-energy formula. Therefore, Lucien kept it to himself for now and let his teacher accept it slowly.
Thinking about that, Lucien secretly regretted in his heart. Every time there was a disruptive theory, my teacher was always the first one to bear the brunt. I'm sorry for him. Well, fission and fusion should be able to help him reach a higher level, right?
Fernando said solemnly, "Fusion? The other one is fission? "
The decay of elements that had been discovered so far was obviously fission. Therefore, he asked the question with some excitement on his face.
"Fission releases energy. Fusion does too?" Hathaway asked straightforwardly, a trace of fanaticism appearing in her silver-gray eyes on her delicate and pretty face.
They had completely forgotten that this area was under the control of the Church and that the horrifying and insane explosion of 'Big Ivan' had just taken place here. Floating in the air, they began to discuss the issues of fission and fusion.
Natasha listened to Lucien's "science" with great interest and interjected from time to time. Bergner, who was not good at elements at all, was also dizzy. Therefore, he decided to stay on the side and keep watch.
After a brief introduction, Lucien said, "Master, Your Excellency Hathaway, the fusion explosion must have alarmed Varantine in the northeast. Let's leave this place first. We can't finish the discussion in a short time."
"Varantine? Humph. He dares to disturb us? " The Lord of Storm glared at Lucien. They had two grand arcanists and a level-two legendary prophet. How could they be scared of a leader of ascetics who did not even have the title of Saint?
Even if the pope were to come in person, Fernando believed that it wouldn't be difficult for them to escape even if they couldn't defeat him with God's Arrival. Legendary mages were much harder to kill than any other profession, unless they were surrounded and sealed in space. However, with the presence of a Prophet, it would be completely impossible for them to ambush and kill them.
However, Fernando still held back his desire of arcana exploration. He continued, "Let's go back to Allyn first and compile a report about your encounters with the Silver Moon and the existence of the World of Souls. If you're willing, you can also tell us about Maskelyne. You can't face the World of Souls alone."
Congus had some leftover files, which made Fernando understand why they were keeping a close eye on Lucien.
Natasha took the opportunity to leave and was ready to return to the Knight Legion sent by the Duchy of Orvarit.
"Let's talk later." Natasha did not feel sad at all. She smiled and made a gesture for Lucien to send an electromagnetic message. Then, she talked with Hathaway for a while in private before she flew away leisurely.
Watching her flying away, Fernando put on a wretched smile. "Lucien, it seems that you're having a hard time in love."
Did he see through it? Lucien asked awkwardly, "What are you talking about, master?"
"Haha. Don't be shy. I'm a very experienced man. What haven't I been through? Although I'm single now, that's because I've become indifferent to this aspect. I've returned to the realm of returning to the original state that you mentioned. If you have any emotional problems, you can ask me for advice. "Fernando smiled and said to his student without holding back.
… …
In the Nekso Palace in Renstadt, capital of the Kingdom of Holm …
There was a white candle burning in the silver candlestick. The dim light of the candle gave off a sad and desolate feeling under the contrast of the storm and lightning outside.
Sard, who was wearing a white bonnet and had white hair and beard, looked at King Feltis who was lying on the bed and said, "Your Majesty, your life came to an end a few months ago. You have been sustained by divine power, but now, even divine power cannot prolong your life anymore. However, everything is ready. You can return to the arms of the Lord without any worries. Don't worry. Death is not the end. You will receive eternal happiness and salvation in Mountain Paradise."
Feltis's dirty eyes were clear again. There was self-blame in them, but they were soon replaced by more responsibility and determination. He said intermittently, "Honorable Saint Sardes … Rex, I'll leave the rest to you. The Kingdom of Holm has always been, and will always be, blessed by the gods."
Rex, the speaker of the Parliament of Nobles and Duke of Frenburg, faced the king whom he had been loyal to for years, with grief on his face. He fell on one of his knees and held Feltis' right hand. "Your Majesty, I won't let you down."
"It's my destiny to bring glory to the Lord, Your Majesty. Rest assured, the prince will not fall into hell." Sardes drew a cross in front of his chest. Crack.
An enormous lightning struck and illuminated the whole room. Feltis closed his eyes with a smile, and his right hand fell helplessly.
… …
In the residence of the finance minister, Henson Count was woken up from his sleep.
"What? His Majesty has been summoned by the Lord? Hurry up and prepare a carriage! " Henson Count rose from the bed abruptly and walked out in his pajamas. His wife hurried to follow him and put on his black suit, before she gave him his staff.
Henson Count, who had lost his usual elegance, almost ran to the carriage at the gate of the villa. Then, he said in a high-pitched voice, "Hurry up! Let's go to the Nekso Palace!"
He did not activate his bloodline, so his running speed was not as fast as the carriage pulled by the Dragon Scale Horse. If he was carried by someone else, it would reveal the panic in his heart. Therefore, even though he was burning with anxiety, he could only sit in the carriage and tidy his clothes to make himself appear very calm, so as to give the other nobles confidence.
Boom. Lightning flashed, and thunder burst out. It seemed to be a reflection of Henson Count's uneasiness. The carriage, driven by the coachman, ran so fast that mud was splashing high into the air.
The four wheels were spinning so fast that the whole carriage was almost thrown out when it turned into a dark street.
The car window was opened, and a gust of wind blew in. Raindrops the size of beans poured into the car. The night outside was as dark as ink, as if it contained endless fear.
The carriage stopped outside of the Nekso Palace. Henson Count rushed into the palace in the storm. At this moment, he saw Duke James and Duke Russell at the gate.
"How is it? Where is the prince? "Henson Count breathed heavily. He was already an old man.
Gloomily, James said in a hoarse voice, "The prince was too sorrowful. He was summoned by the Lord."
"What?"
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Henson Count's shocked voice was eclipsed by the deafening thunder. He simply stood in the rain and allowed the storm to hit him. His eyes were blurred, bright and dark.
