Chapter 278
According to the knowledge passed down from Master, Mimir’s soul did not completely disappear.
It’s just that Mimir’s book loses its power, and the power to maintain Mimir’s form is gone.
The core itself that made up Mimir still exists in the book of Mimir.
The proof is the Book of Idred.
The Book of Idred lost its power a long time ago and turned into an ordinary book.
However, the data of Elena-sama and Aslan-sama were still there.
Because the data existed, we were able to meet on the page of the sixth test this time.
And the structure of Mimir’s Book is not that different from Idred’s Book.
Mimir’s spiritual data is clearly present in the Book of Mimir.
As long as Data is alive, it is never impossible to bring Mimir back to life.
‘Something to replace Mimir’s Book. I just need to find an alternative that can output Mimir’s spiritual data.’
It will be easier to understand if you compare it to a computer.
If Mimir’s data is a USB, then Mimir’s book is the main body.
Currently, only the main body is missing.
If you find a replacement for the body, the data on the USB will work again.
If you find a replacement for Mimir’s Book, the problem will be solved naturally.
So I tried to find a replacement for Mimir’s book in modern magic technology.
Now, 18,000 years have passed since the birth of the bi-tenor style.
If it is modern magic that has achieved a epoch-making change.
Wouldn’t there be a way in the modern age when things that were not revealed in Master’s era were revealed?
I thought so.
That’s why he asked Master for information about the Book of Mimir and the magic used to make the Book of Mimir.
If you know that, you will be able to find a way in modern times.
Of course I know it won’t be easy.
I had to make something to replace Mimir’s Book.
It was expected to take at least a few years and at most 10 years or more.
‘however… … .’
what is this
My expectations were completely wrong.
Fortunately, in a very good way.
‘There was an answer to Mimir’s research.’
A study left behind by Mimir.
This study was the answer I was looking for.
With the results of this research, Mimir can be revived within two years at the earliest.
Not only can I revive Mimir, I can also advance to a higher level.
‘Acceleration of mythic magic using full backup of fully autonomous AI.’
To complete the research up to this point with only theories without any experiments.
Just how genius is Mimir.
Or rather, that Mimir was neglected because he had no magical talent?
I’m sorry to say this, but are all the people from the days of the Bytenor Empire stupid?
I’m sorry to Master, but this year, Master made a big mistake.
Even if you put an ore of diamond next to it, it just rots as an ore.
It is a human loss.
‘The problem is how to carry out this research and produce results.’
The thesis is perfect.
Mimir said that it would take trial and error to some extent because it was a hypothesis based only on theory, but not from my point of view.
Mimir’s theory is perfect.
There is no need to change or touch anything more than this.
All you have to do is conduct your research according to the contents of this eye statement.
Of course, the difficulty is that ‘we proceed as is’.
‘The experimental materials and experimental process required to conduct this research are very difficult. It would be difficult for quite a few researchers to reproduce this beyond a certain level, let alone execute it as it is.’
First of all, it is a problem to find a researcher to take charge of this research.
No, it’s a problem even if you find an outstanding researcher.
There’s no law saying that researcher shouldn’t have other thoughts after seeing this research journal.
Especially if you belong to a large research institute, nine times out of ten will have a different mind. Not to mention a researcher in a high position.
I will definitely try to monopolize this research.
This research journal is worth that much.
Therefore, the conditions for the researcher I need to find are as follows.
‘He has an outstanding brain that can be called the best in the world, is not affiliated with a research institute, and is a good man who will not betray me… … .’
My head hurts already.
First of all, the probability that a researcher with the best brain in the world does not belong to a research institute is extremely bad.
Could there be such a geek?
‘I’ll try to find one… … .’
I mean it doesn’t seem to exist.
… … Well, if it’s not there, I’ll have to find another way.
If it doesn’t work out, even if it takes a little time, I can lead the research myself.
Or you can ask the Blue Mage Tower for help.
Although the master of the Blue Mage Tower is not AI, he still has some basic knowledge.
There’s no way you wouldn’t know the value of this research, so I’m sure you’ll help me in any way.
‘… … Of course, the best course of action is to find an expert in this field.’
It is better to leave it to a trustworthy non-expert than to leave it to an unreliable expert.
‘Whatever it is, I just have to look it up and then decide.’
The first condition for the talent I am looking for is a researcher who is not affiliated with the research institute.
You’d better find it among the geeks who are doing their research alone in the shadows.
hmm. Wouldn’t it be among Captain Charles’ connections?
As mercenaries are also people who work in the shadows, there is a high probability that they have some kind of connection with the researchers in the shadows.
I’ll have to ask one more time.
After thinking so, I took my phone out of my pocket and called Captain Charles.
“Captain. Do you have a moment? There is something I would like to ask of you.”
—… … suddenly?
* * *
―A trustworthy independent researcher. OK, I’ll look for it.
The short phone call with Captain Charles ended.
Contrary to expectations, there was no connection with researchers in the shadows.
Since they are a mercenary group that only pursues the black magic tower, I wonder if they haven’t had a chance to make friends outside of combat.
But, well, if you want to find out, you can find out.
We’ll have to wait and see.
‘I wish I had good people.’
I prayed like that and got up from my seat.
Then we headed straight to the parking lot in the basement of the hotel.
A luxury limousine standing in the VIP parking lot.
Uncle Seokhyun was standing in front of him.
“sorry. A little late.”
The time we promised to move was 10 minutes ago. After organizing my thoughts and contacting Captain Charles, I was late for the appointment.
“no. You are on time.”
Mr. Seokhyun opened the door to the back seat with an expression that he didn’t mind at all.
I got into the car, and Mr. Seok-hyeon followed and got into the driver’s seat.
“Can we head to Binosugar as planned?”
“yes. please.”
The destination is Binosugar.
The purpose is to convey to Sein Binoche everything I know about the essence of knights, ‘honor’.
“Then we will depart.”
We left the underground parking lot of the hotel and entered a quiet road.
Did it run for about 20 minutes?
We arrived at our destination, Binosugar.
“Then I will be waiting here. Have a good time.”
I left Uncle Seok-hyeon behind and entered Binoche’s mansion.
I greeted the butler in the lobby and was guided to Sein-sama’s room on the top floor.
“Sein. Shin Ha-yul has arrived.”
“Stop by.”
The butler slowly opened the door, stepped back and lowered his head.
I gave the butler a small thank you for the guidance and entered the room.
“Hoo.”
As soon as I entered the room, I heard Sein-sama’s exclamations.
The eyes that look at me are full of surprise.
“It looks like you climbed the stairs one more step while you couldn’t see it.”
After passing the sixth test page, my Infinity Circle entered a state of complete stability.
To be precise, rather than entering a stable state while passing the sixth test page, the circle was stabilized due to the indirect influence of the knowledge passed on from Master.
It’s because the knowledge that can only be acquired after the 9th circle is implanted in my brain.
It’s only natural that it has some influence on me, who is in the 6th circle.
“It wasn’t that there was a noticeable change… … . Can you see it?”
But it hasn’t really made much progress.
It’s because the Infinity Circle, which has grown to a certain extent, has just entered complete stabilization.
From the outside, there is little to no change.
No, looking at the output alone, it is normal to feel that it has decreased.
Stabilization means suppressing unnecessary consumption and making it more efficient.
“okay. see.”
Sein-nim smiled as he leaned back with his chin resting on his right fist.
“A huge mana circle incomparable to other wizards. The mana core located beneath it. And even the body meshing with the two as if they were completely united.”
Sein-nim slowly got up from his seat and started approaching me.
“Your mana rides the circle and moves through your brain. It is clearly visible in my eyes. It looks so good that it worries me.”
“… … .”
I was at a loss for words for a moment.
Such a detailed observation.
That’s a level of observation comparable to my god.
“In two days… … You must have been through a lot.”
“well. There was nothing particularly major about it.”
Sein-sama stood right in front of me, looked up at me slightly and smiled.
“For the past two days, all I’ve done is train in the basement.”
Sein-sama slowly raised her right hand, and repeated squeezing and opening it.
“… … All two days?”
“okay.”
“Sleep… … .”
“I didn’t sleep.”
Mana began to condense on Sein-sama’s palm as he repeatedly squeezed and opened.
“What is the ‘honor’ you speak of? Thinking about it made me waste my time sleeping.”
Mana soon took the form of a small sword.
An ordinary heavy sword with no distinctive features.
Sein-sama took the sword in his hand and turned his body to the side.
“If I hadn’t promised to meet with you… … . He must have been stuck at the training ground today. To make this entirely mine.”
And just like that, he swung his sword into the air.
It’s not a big deal.
Sain’s sword passed through the table as it was.
A table with refreshments prepared.
If it was the way it was, the table would be split in two, and it should have been a catastrophe.
however.
“that… … .”
No such catastrophe occurred.
The table was not broken in two.
Sein-sama’s sword definitely went through the table, but the table was intact.
“What? It’s a catch-all technique.”
Sein smiled and released the mana sword he was holding.
Then he walked over to the table and grabbed a piece of cookie from the plate with his hand.
No, not in one piece.
‘Only sweets… … Did you cut it in half?’
half a piece.
A moment ago, Sein-sama’s sword attack cut the half cookie exactly in half.
Sein-nim put the cookie into his mouth as it was.
“Ever since you demonstrated to me what a knight’s honor is, I’ve been thinking about it. What is honor really? what is glory What does it mean to connect the past?”
He chews and swallows the snack in one go, then lightly licks his thumb smeared with cookie crumbs.
“The answer is simpler than I thought.”
Transparent light flowed from Sein-sama’s eyes.
Like dew at dawn.
It was a lake-like pupil that could see through the bottom.
“mind.”
“… … !”
I got goosebumps.
“And the mind was none other than myself.”
Only two days have passed.
I just showed you what honor is like right in front of your eyes.
Other than that, nothing else was said.
In terms of mathematics, the level that taught the four arithmetic operations. It was just the transfer of information.
“My heart was in the sword I used. I was in The honor you used meant to express it externally through the medium of the sword.”
It was just passing on that much information.
this person is. this check.
I jumped through dozens of steps casually.
“So I thought. Black is the medium after all. If expressing myself in a sword is the essence of a sword… … . I just wondered if I could express myself, the me inside of me.”
Like it’s very natural.
beyond everything.
“I already have a heart sword… … .”
“Heart sword. It’s a heart sword. Is this sword called by that name?”
During the Bytenor Empire, it was a state that only those who had reached the pinnacle of all swordsmen could use it.
“indeed. It is a very fitting name.”
I had reached the top of the sword.
