1000 Years Later, Even My Weakest Follower Has Become A Demon King

151 Grimoire (2)

Violet Grant was a true powerhouse who had cultivated five spells to the Divine Realm and was one of the founders of the Mage Association. This was a name that everyone who graduated from Blackwater Offa University would remember.

However, was it meaningful to use the greatest chancellor in the history of Blackwater Offa University as an example? Back then, William Kane was an honorary professor at Offa University. Should he use this to infer that even the external professors hired by the university were at the Holy Spirit level?

Grimm felt that there was probably something wrong with the person in front of him for him to suddenly give him a history lesson.

“Compared to him, fine… It’s not just him. Compared to many people in the past, I’m indeed incapable as a deputy. But so what? It’s no longer the era of heroes. The problem now is that we can’t do anything without the Astral Council’s help.”

As Grimm spoke, he felt himself starting to feel frustrated.

“Therefore, although I don’t know who you are or who is in command between you and Vincent, I think I must warn you.”

Looking at the other party’s calm face, William spread his hands and gestured for him to continue.

“Although there’s a high chance that you will defeat the Restorationists’ coup despite having the initiative, I still have to say that this doesn’t mean anything because the other party can at least propose a plan to return to the Astral Laws. Although this is an old path, it’s effective.”

As Grimm spoke, he straightened up and continued, “However, you can’t plan a new way out for the entire Offa University, the entire city, or rather, the Blackwater Province.”

Ever since the Stranger Astral Lighthouse was shut down, what hope was there for the children with magic affinity—the students whose minds were ready for advancement but lacked advancement spots?

Sometimes, he would even maliciously speculate if the real reason Vincent sealed the Astral Lighthouse was that he had been abandoned by the Astral Laws and his name as a registered mage had been erased. In turn, he wanted all the magic chanters in the Blackwater Province to feel the same affliction as him.

If this problem wasn’t resolved, so what if the coup was stopped?

Many magic chanters had already chosen to leave and seek out opportunities in other provinces. If this situation continued, Blackwater Province’s magic chanter legacy would be wiped out in a few years.

William replied to Grimm, “You just said that the Astral Laws is an old path, but in my opinion, it’s not old.”

As he spoke, he took out a brick-thick grimoire from his inventory and slammed it on the table.

The book cover seemed to be sewn from the skin of an amphibian. Moreover, the skin constantly changed its color as if it were still alive.

Grimm looked at the old book and looked at William in confusion.

“Open it.”

William didn’t explain further.

Grimm opened the first page of the book and saw that it said:

Introduction to Illusion—Art of Light Manipulation

By Violet Grant

If we admit that everything in this world is a facade of light, adding another layer of illusion on top of this fabrication was nothing. It had to be known that not only was everything the solidification of light, but it also shaped everyone’s basic understanding of things in Currere. The perception of mortals originated from the dispersion of light, and unsolidified light was the bridge that could at most change and be easily distorted. Therefore, illusions that controlled mortals’ minds through light were born.

Perhaps many people believed that compared to Morph spells that could permanently change the essence of things, the colorful lights created by illusions were only temporary illusions that would ultimately be nothing but dissipating bubbles. However, they forgot that their understanding of what was affected by fake illusions was equally real.

Morph and Illusion were essentially the same. This was because reality and illusion were ripples that echoed in everyone’s hearts. After Currere stripped away all its facade, everything it displayed was that of the naked heart. Therefore, to everyone, the truth of this world only depended on the appearance they observed.

…

Upon seeing this, Grimm looked up at William and said, “This is…”

“She’s Liliana’s true Illusion teacher.”

“If I wish to buy this book—no, if I wish to borrow this book for some time, what do I need to pay? I will be equally responsible for the book’s maintenance,”

Grimm immediately asked solemnly.

Introduction to the five spells—Morph, Illusion, Fire, Frost, and Light—was once Blackwater Offa University’s most precious riches. However, they were all moved to Ring City by the Astral Council during the book-burning campaign back then.

It was said that the Astral Laws’ main branch of these five spells developed through the theories of these five books. f𝘳ℯℯ𝙬𝒆𝚋𝐧oν𝑒Ɩ.c𝑜𝙢

The process of magic training provided many transcendent feelings that couldn’t be described by words or figures. One could only rely on completing the construction of spell models and controlling the chanting rhythm. At the end of the day, one would at most reach the Expert level.

Therefore, relying on magic books could only introduce some basic general knowledge. It was just like music instrument textbooks. Even if this textbook was written by a famous bard, it couldn’t compare to being taught by the tavern poet next door.
