—Sivin Mephistopheles

[The Church's spells are not treasures given by the gods, but are evil gifts from the original scriptures, just like the casters.

Huh——

Of course I know that.

But the casters don't understand that what we defend is never just faith......]

—Atholl Clermont

[Is that warlock named Starter crazy?]

If this continues, it will completely destroy everything we have built up now, but ......

But His Holiness the Pope seems to have the intention of supporting such a thing......

Oh my God......

- Aesop Lall

【King?】

Of course the kings would support such a thing!

Being able to trample a high-flying spellcaster under his feet in one fell swoop is certainly the ruler's favorite thing! 】

—Halvin Odd

[Blocking information and revising past history.]

Of course, this kind of thing can only be done by those of us who have the right to learn and educate.

But what about those aristocratic teachers?

Will these maggot-like creatures understand what an important thing the Pope is doing? 】

—Raffer Walls

[The greater the number of people who hold the original text, the more powerful the spell caster will be, and the increase in the number of original book holders will be much better than the effect of increasing ordinary mystical scholars.]

But on the contrary.

Ordinary people who are completely ignorant of occult knowledge, the more these ordinary people are, the weaker the spell ability of the caster will become......

Are you kidding?

That's all there is to it, but ordinary people are born in litters? 】

—Lupat Reynolds

[From a holistic point of view, His Majesty the Pope's thoughts are naturally correct.

If it is for the survival of all of us, then even if the number of sacrifices is several times greater, the strongest original text cannot continue to be used, which is completely worth doing.

But is this really insurance?

Even if the man named Stat succeeds, if the number of people exceeds the threshold in the future, the area will still return to the environment that we are now filled with mana air, and this kind of thing can really be maintained? 】

- Ainz Gay

[What a joke!

That group of heretics actually created an evil god...... Demon!

No!

It doesn't matter!

The tide is already on our side, and some areas, even if they fall back to their side, will be nothing more than islands floating in the ocean, which can be completely submerged by the occasional sea.

Victory must be ours! 】

“……”

"Ahem, ahem—"

In the church's secret library, Ronald flipped through the records little by little, and his respiratory tract even coughed from the effects of dust.

But compared to the discomfort of the body.

Sure enough, this information in front of me is even more shocking.

From the entrance of the library to this side, all the text that Ronald saw was basically something written or recorded by the monks of the Church before the Dark Ages.

Much of it is written from the personal perspective of a monk.

The counterfeiting rate is low, the credibility is high, and the content is direct and distinct.

So just watching it all the time makes Ronald feel tingling down his spine.

A morning time down.

If you summarize what Ronald wrote down.

That is, at the end of the Dark Ages, the Church that had suppressed the occult side, under the leadership of a special pope and those who followed his ideas, joined forces with the formerly hostile spellcasters, and then began to change the basic structure of the world.

In the Dark Ages.

The process of casting spells in this world is actually no different from that of an ordinary fantasy world.

There is even a phenomenon that the more people who master the original texts and the more people who study the mystical side knowledge, the stronger the spells of the entire world will be.

However, at the end of the Dark Ages, something that defied common sense appeared.

The highest level of spellcasters, who were supposed to spare no effort to advance the development of spells, instead made a choice that was completely unfavorable to their own interests.

……

Could it be that some original book that cannot be elaborated on has appeared in this world......

Subsequently, through the efforts of some of the most powerful canon holders of the time.

Mysterious phenomena on the world, and possibly planetaly, have been modified at some fundamental levels.

This change did not make the power of the original text disappear.

However, the environment of ordinary spellcasters has undergone earth-shaking and decisive changes. The normal path of becoming a mystical side spell caster through learning knowledge is completely cut off, and only by being included in the so-called school imprint system can you become a spell caster.

Since then.

The status quo of the whole world's increasing magical power was directly choked by the throat.

However, this change is not a panacea, and after the arrival of the new era, if the number of newborns converted into [seeds] in some areas is too large, it is possible to reset some areas back to the previous Dark Ages situation.

Eventually, the area will be subsided.

That is, to blend into a subsidiary world that the mysterious side casters who did not agree with this choice at the time and built the last bastion of the spell realm.

In that world, there were even the end products of the Dark Ages.

Something that was artificially created and then given the name of a 'god'.

So the victors of the world at that time.

Decisively define this phenomenon as the alienation of the world.

And told everyone to strictly guard against this matter, and even modified and concealed this phenomenon to prevent other hidden dangers.

After all, the Dark Ages spellcaster inside the final fortress.

and those of them who choose the new era, are absolutely irreconcilable contradictions.

“……”

"Go ahead and look at the back......"

The brain bears the shock of receiving information.

Ronald walked slowly towards the back of the library.

As the wooden boxes were opened and the texts were flipped through, he became more and more aware of what the Dark Ages meant.

It's just that this situation didn't last.

By the time we reached the third of the room, things changed.

The moment he opened a box seriously, Ronald's eyes froze.

He noticed a change in the material of the pages in the box.

It was not the ordinary paper that the church liked to use for recording, but something that was treated with a completely different process and resembled parchment.

With a somewhat subtle expression, Ronald laughed:

"Hehe......"

"So now that you've seen this, is there anything terrible going to pop up?"

Reaching for the page, Ronald wrinkled his nose a little uncomfortably.

It's something very different.

Not to mention the content of the record, the words used to record information on the parchment were not even in the same system as what he had seen before.

It is likely that the previous documents that are clearly from the Church were written in ancient church records.

And these ...... in Ronald's hands now

Distinguish the subtle language and writing system, so that ordinary people can read these words as if they were reading a book from heaven. However, with the support of language literacy, Ronald was able to recognize their specific contents.

-- "Research Progress of the Original Texts I"

[I think every original text is an anchor.

Are these powerful objects made in unknown worlds a friendly gift, or are they a trap for demons to lead humans into the abyss?

It's a long way from completely cracking these things these days now.

Even if we begin to explore the knowledge, words, and conversations in the trials, there are still many related difficulties, and the way our school is passed on is indeed correct, but it is time to make a change......]

“……”

"It's ...... Not a member of the church? ”

Looking at the content in front of him, Ronald raised his eyebrows, and a hint of realization flowed in his eyes.

He probably understood what was going on.

This secret library contains not only the internal documents of the Church, but also the manuscripts of other mystical schools from a long time ago.

Considering the cooperation between the two parties in the end, this is indeed a very likely thing.

For myself, this was a bonus.

Thinking like this, Ronald continued to read and review the documents in the back, and then sorted out some more important information.

- Minutes of the Second Meeting

[Statement by Ms. Ashley McCann:

Maybe Start was right.

Our reforms are fierce enough, and if we really toss something that breaks all the original texts, some people will instantly rebel with the support we can get now.

In order to move towards the right possibility, this compromise must be accepted! 】

- "Negotiation II"

[Etienne Davidson:

Doesn't make sense!

Those spellcasters from the mythological system don't make sense!

Indulge in inexplicable so-called mysteries, and completely do not accept the olive branch thrown by the holders of theoretical original texts.

If something like this happens again.

I'm afraid that power witch can kill all the way to the Thunder Master's school.

What will we do then? 】

- "Miscellaneous Records of Xiuyi"

[Majel has a very interesting idea.]

He believes that the order established by us spellcasters is a wrong choice made with little experience in the past, and that if it continues, it will only end in collapse.

I have no opinion on his opinion.

But in that paper, I noticed a little and extended a bold idea.

From the day of the Apocalypse, such things as the original texts began to appear in our world, and the development of occult knowledge led to the emergence of popular spells.

But what if the star explosion on the day of the revelation was the root cause of everything?

The infinite energy of the universe has changed a certain structure of our world.

That's why these original texts appeared.

Is this also a possibility? 】

- The Final Argument of the Council of Six

[Hopps Adler speaks:

I think the way you, including me, see the world in the past, is fundamentally problematic!

It is easy to distinguish between the canon and the commoners.

This is a very wrong thing to do!

What exactly is the original text, everyone now has their own judgment in their hearts.

But I think!

This is the knowledge that is written, the thing that spreads all possibilities in words.

The original texts that record knowledge are essentially tools for information dissemination, and this method is compared with the information transmission between people, and there is no difference between high and low, but only in different ways.

There is no essential difference between you and I sitting here today discussing our future choices and the small talk of two farmers on the way home after they have finished their farm work.

are all part of the exchange of information.

So, is there an idea that can be derived from this?

Perhaps the order we maintain is completely opposed to these ordinary people?

The Day of Revelation leads to the emergence of the original texts, and a completely new class is built in this world, and the increase in the number of original texts will also make us stronger.

But on the other hand, if the number of ordinary people overwhelms us spellcasters in terms of comprehensiveness, completeness, and thoroughness, then all of them should assume that there are no spells in the world.

If this development continues, will the powerful spell-casting ability in our hands weaken, or even disappear directly, and finally become a low-level humanoid animal like them, that is, in the mouth of the old bastard of Nessos, who cannot perform war spells?

So we're going to compromise and continue to maintain the current system?

No kidding!

The purpose of my standing here today has never been to maintain this distorted nobility!

Any compromiser can stand up now.

As long as you have the guts! 】

- "Origin Investigation II"

[How did Warcraft appear?]

How did magical plants and minerals come about?

This kind of question, how could that waste who only knows how to play with spells be able to ask it, and the earth, water, fire, and wind told him? Or did Arashi tell him? Or the Eternal Flame?

What knowledge can we gain in the original texts not change the state of other substances?

What does Curry think he is?

Are human beings really the spirits of all things?

It's ridiculous! 】

- "Before Bedtime in the East Building of the Great Forest Castle"

Our time is over, in our own hands.

Start said it was the end of the Dark Ages, but I thought it would be better to call it the Day of the Dawn rather than a different name.

After all, it starts with us, and then ends with us.

This gives birth to new hope, which is more appropriate......]

“……”

In silence, Ronald looked at the information he had compiled little by little.

From the records of the Church to the study and discussion of the occult side.

In the mouths of this group of casters who have no religious beliefs as interference, Ronald has a new harvest.

From the time of the revelation of this world, something full of mystery such as the original text appeared in the human world, and then the basic framework of this world's ability to interpret the Dharma began to be constructed.

After that, with the development of the mystical side.

The world's canon holders are also broadly divided into two camps.

A mythic spellcaster who holds the original text of the mythic type.

and a theoretical caster who holds the original canon of the scientific type.

Because of the essential difference in the original canon, the contradictions between the two sides intensified, leading to a series of incidents.

Finally at the end of the Dark Ages.

As the conflict intensified, the situation was shaken, and the top spellcasters of the time finally united and decided to change the world, and then Ronald could see everything he can see today.

"The Day of Revelation ......"

The Bradshaw Guide to the Railroad makes it clear to Ronald that he still has quite a long time to read. However, with a thought on his face, Ronald was no longer as fast as he was when he first came in.

These astonishing documents show that the world has become very unstable since the day of the Apocalypse......

Look at all kinds of things, and then combine them with your own cognition.

That's how Ronald understands it personally.

-- The spread of knowledge will lead to a fundamental change in the world.

The more people who have the knowledge of magic, the more magical the world becomes, and the more people who believe that the world is inherently magicless, the more ordinary the world will be as ordinary as the earth they are on.

The emergence of the original canon has completely subverted this phenomenon.

And completely rushed to the fantasy worldview of the Dark Ages.

It's just that due to the efforts of the people in this world themselves, this process was forcibly reversed, and then it was maintained to the strange and deformed appearance it is today.

"It's ......"

"It's unimaginable......"
