Chapter 483: It’s a pity that I don’t have time
Since they still had to visit [Vulcan], Ethan and Sophia did not talk much with Ulysses.
Ulysses seemed to have something to say, but he also knew that the two of them were busy, so he didn't say much and let them go.
The two entered Merlin Academy smoothly and then reached their destination smoothly.
[Vulcan] Evelin lives in a small independent building in Merlin College. Although it is not big, it has a small yard filled with all kinds of flowers and plants.
When the two arrived at the courtyard, Evelin was sitting in a wheelchair watering the flowers and plants.
"Teacher!" Sophia called, then quickly ran towards Evelin.
Evelin raised her head when she heard the sound, and saw Sophia coming, with a smile on her face.
"You guys arrived so quickly!"
With that said, Evelin greeted the two of them in and gave Ethan an intriguing smile.
This is the first time Ethan has seen Evelin in person. To be honest, the image of the other person is a bit unexpected.
Although Evelin is over a hundred years old, she is not as senile as expected. At most, she looks like an ordinary person in her forties or fifties.
She was not as sick as expected, but was in high spirits, and it was completely impossible to tell that she was a dying person.
However, there was a burn scar on her face, which made her look a little scary when she smiled.
From Ethan's perspective, this should be the reason why she has been reluctant to show her true colors.
"We meet again, Sir Ethan." Evelin greeted Ethan and interrupted Ethan's train of thought.
Ethan smiled and said: "Yes, it's an honor to meet you!"
"Sit!" Evelin asked a disciple to bring a chair to Ethan.
Ethan was not polite and sat directly opposite her.
"I think you must be curious why I invited you over." Evelin said straight to the point.
"I'm a little curious." Ethan nodded: "If there is anything you need my help with, please tell me."
Seeing that Ethan spoke so politely, Evelin covered her mouth and smiled: “You are truly the most humble great sword master I have ever seen.
However, I don't dare to give any instructions, I just want to help me verify an idea. "
"No problem!" Ethan nodded again: "Please tell me what you think!"
"I hope you can activate the ascension posture and help me confirm a magic that I just realized!
This magic does not involve the power of any rules and is not dangerous. It is only guided by my heart and confirms a conjecture. "
When Ethan heard that the other party wanted to experiment with magic on him, he hesitated, but finally agreed.
Of course, Ethan dared to agree because of his absolute trust in the ascension gesture.
He stood up and said, "Do we need to move somewhere?"
"No need!" Evelin smiled and said: "I said this magic is not dangerous, and of course it has no destructive power. You just need to activate the ascension posture."
When Ethan heard this, he nodded and said no more, and his whole body suddenly shone with golden light.
When Evelin saw the golden man standing in front of her, a flash of envy flashed in her eyes, and then she slowly raised her finger and pointed at Ethan without much affection.
Suddenly a golden magic halo flashed on her wrist, and she whispered: "Dispel!"
With her soft call, Ethan felt a breeze blowing, and then the golden light on his body dissipated like dust in the wind.
Ethan was immediately shocked.
For a moment, I really couldn't believe that the ascending posture that I thought was invincible was broken so easily, without even time to react.
He wanted to try to re-activate it, but found that his spirit seemed to be stripped away from his body. Not to mention re-activating the ascension posture, he could not even control his body.
This situation lasted for a full ten seconds before returning to normal.
Ethan was so frightened that cold sweat broke out on his forehead. If Evelin had suddenly attacked when her body was out of control just now, she would probably have died.
At this moment, he suddenly realized that the invincible soaring posture was not vulnerable to a single blow.
After Evelin saw that magic was possible, she just said calmly: "It's true! The rules are just a scam!"
Ethan was in a state of panic. Hearing this, he quickly asked: "What did you say?"
Evelin invited Ethan to sit down first, and then slowly spoke: “Sir Ethan, I know you have many questions, in fact I do too.
Because I also have many questions that I can’t figure out.
What I can tell you is that I created this magic just to treat my own illness.
Here I may want to explain my illness to you first. The illness I have is not a disease in the traditional sense, but a condition that every magician at the sage level or above will encounter.
As we grow older, the mental power of a magician like me will begin to inexplicably degrade until death.
This has caused many people to die mentally, but their hearts are still beating.
I never understood why this happened before, and I thought about solving it, but because I couldn't empathize with it, I couldn't even do basic research.
Now that I have encountered it, I have begun to actively seek solutions, but there has been no progress.
Until I heard that you became an ascended person, at that moment I suddenly realized that there might be something wrong with my thinking.
So I went to check the information of [God of Death] Anastasia, and I found that she did not suffer any mental degradation in her later years.
This means that the two most important branch points in the magic world, objective rules and self-rules, although they both belong to the supernatural power, are actually two completely different systems.
In recent years, I have tried to transfer myself to the self-rule system, and I found that the magic of the self-rule system does not seem to belong to the power of rules, it is just an ordinary supernatural power.
For example, your ascension posture may be just an ordinary defensive posture, and the reason why it shows the invincible characteristics is because it is immune to the magic of another system.
In other words, the reason why it can show the characteristics of the power of rules is not the characteristics of the source itself, but only relative to the objective rule system, it will show the power of rules.
And the magic I just performed is the best proof.
Because the magic I just used does not involve any rule power, it only comes from the power of my own soul.
But it can break the so-called invincible ascension posture.
Obviously, the ascension posture only shows an invincible situation when facing objective rules. Once facing the soul power that also comes from the self-rule, it is just an ordinary supernatural power.
And I invited you here this time just to verify my conjecture.
Obviously, my idea is not wrong.
In fact, since I began to give up objective rules and actively practice self-rules, I have found many things wrong.
In the past, I would go to the plane world to climb the pyramid from time to time, but no matter how hard I tried, I could never go beyond 200 steps.
But since I practiced self-rules, I climbed to the top of the pyramid easily, and I didn't even feel the pressure.
Moreover, just after I practiced self-rules, my condition was quickly controlled.
Although it is still constantly degrading, the speed is much slower, and there is even a tendency to stop.
Therefore, I feel that this world seems to be manipulated by an invisible big hand.
All extraordinary powers come from that hand, and only those who awaken their own soul power can get rid of its shackles.
Doesn't it sound interesting? I really want to study that invisible hand carefully, but unfortunately, I don't have time! ”
