Chapter 336 - 138.Lea Lu
Chapter 336 of "Demi-human Girls Completion Manual" commences with: Chapter 336: 138.Lea Lu"I completely forgot to ask for your name. Iām just too eager... Donāt miss the next part!
Chapter 336: 138.Lea Lu"I completely forgot to ask for your name. Iām just too eager for the knowledge you possess, sometimes I forget the proper manners. You donāt mind, do you?"
"Fisher Benavides."
"Oh, no problem, Fisher. Thatās a good name... It always reminds me of the Dragon-man Species in the Dragon Court."
As Fisher and Moli descended the stairway on the second floor and Fisher finished responding to the Book Knightās remarks, he nodded beside Fisher and circled around him.
Xiayat and Anna turned towards Fisher, especially Anna, who clearly could wait no longer. She had just heard the words of the Book Knight and furrowed her brows slightly,
"We canāt wait until morning to enter. If we wait any longer, Blake might come over!"
"Thereās no way around it. If thereās Hidden Magic designed here, we can only wait for the specific key time. Hidden Magic has three methods of activation, and the other two require the designer to operate. The mage who designed this magic decades ago might not even be around anymore..."
Prompted by the Book Knight, Fisher, whose mind was stocked with knowledge, quickly thought of the method Blake had used to bury the magic here. He might have employed a time-based Hidden Magic.
As is well known, magic works by levering the worldās Reverberation to take effect. So, please consider the following two questions:
Will the world respond to magic power levering it at any time of the day?
If it does respond, does the effect always remain the same?
The answer is, while the world will respond whenever levered, each Reverberation varies in intensity from subtle to clear.
The worldās response sensitively varies with time, geographical location, and other factors, with some reverberations being enhanced or weakened under specific conditions. For instance, magic associated with the "Moon" and "Light" as Ring Heads tends to be enhanced during the nighttime. There are also magics that are enhanced during the daytime.
Extending this theory, if we design a magic that barely meets the specific timeās intensity needed, and without that certain level of resonance, it will remain hidden, thus constituting a basic form of Hidden Magic.
However, even this basic Hidden Magic requires highly advanced engraving skills, as the engraver must have a keen perception of the resonance levels.
Within all certified members of the Magic Association, only one-third can engrave such magic.
If oneās mastery of magic is higher, similar to Mr. Helsenās level, then you can advance the Hidden Magic in an even more "hidden" direction, such as needing a specific person, or a specific password to activate the magic.
This type of Hidden Magic is generally engraved within the gaps of the world, which is why Fisher could not detect the engraved magic power fluctuations onsite. But then again, if Blakeās treasure trove were so easy to find, the Imperial Family would have discovered the magic here over the many years.
Following the Book Knightās explanation, Fisher guessed that the library was engraved with two nested Hidden Magics.
The first is the simplest Hidden Magic, which only at daytime, through a specific physical combination mechanism, can wake up this magic, displaying a "password" to open the inner layer of magic; then, one must use this password to activate the second hidden magic that can only be opened during the daytime.
This design is very clever, requiring numerous preconditions for two layers of security, otherwise, you wouldnāt even realize the existence of the Magic Emblem.
Upon hearing Fisherās explanation of this magic, Anna, still unclear about the principle, pursed her lips but had no words to counter. Culturally disadvantaged, she could only sit down unhappily, hugging her knees and thighs.
Meanwhile, the Book Knight, who knew little about the content of magic,
"So you are a mage studying magic extensively? Thatās very nice, there are many such people among humans... I can barely understand the books on magic, so I havenāt retained any content from any magic books. It looks like you wonāt need to ask me about magical matters anymore, to avoid embarrassing me."
In fact, in most cases, thereās nothing much to ask. Fisher knew quite a bit, but he was not all-knowing. Sometimes he also had doubts, and in such cases, it was most beneficial to ask this relic that had recorded much knowledge.
Fisher ignored him and looked down at the clock hanging on the library wall. It was about three hours until sunrise, but unfortunately, it was already autumn. If it were still summer, the Sun would rise earlier.
"Since thereās nothing we can do to change the situation, letās use this time to rest properly and adjust our state... Is anyone hungry?"
Anna and Xiayat both shook their heads, the Book Knight didnāt need food, and although Moli was slightly hungry, seeing everyone else not eating, she also tightly shut her mouth, indicating she wasnāt hungry.
In reality, they couldnāt rest much in these three hours, and everyoneās mood was tense, daring not to relax.
Moli sat on a nearby chair meant for reading books, pulled down a book to read, and occasionally looked at Fisher with concern, chatting with him about some aunt matters.
