After breakfast, Juri was bombarded with questions, since Juri proved to be very knowledgeable about the Negative Dimension, Hippolita wanted to know more!
Then Juri exposed some Paranormal knowledge, Hippolita finding this out, found it very interesting and wanted to know more and more.
But Juri said to leave it for later, she wishes to meet with her teacher to be able to exchange for valuable things!
Hippolyta said that she would be very welcome, in fact he even volunteered to guide her to the Archmage's Tower.
But he was prevented, since Norman, as King, naturally wanted to know more about other Continents.
And Juri didn't lie, she said that the Continent she had been to before this one was not hers, she also ended up there by an accident related to the same device, which was her sister's thing.
Since then she was stuck on the other Continent for almost a year, before the accident happened and she ended up here.
Then she talked about being a prisoner of the Winter Elves, Priscilla and so on.
As for her Continent, she said that the Mana on her Continent is extremely scarce, but for some reason the connection with the Paranormal is very strong, that's what they call the Negative Dimension when it affects her Continent, Paranormal!
Then he said that since the people's strength was low, his Continent learned to use their heads and items to do so, since having little Magic, Dungeons were practically non-existent!
So her people evolved to have very advanced technology, the method of government in many parts of the Continent also changed, where to her, things like Kings and Queens are pretty obsolete.
Her information obviously wasn't very useful, but it did give Norman some ideas.
And after all that, Juri could finally breathe a little!
But soon Hippolyta came to ask whether or not she will want to go to the Archmage's Tower.
Juri remembered that the Queen told her that she would send someone to take her to the Dwarves, but since she is very curious about Magic mixed with Rituals, then she went to the Archmage's Tower!
...
The Archmage's Tower is less than 2 hours away, that's on foot, by carriage, about 40 minutes.
So they arrived at the Archmage's Tower very quickly, where from the start Juri felt a strong attention falling on her.
Juri returned the attention, where it didn't take long for the owner to stop that, he seemed to be in the waiting now.
...
The Tower is quite large, apparently about 60 meters long.
Juri, Ikiria and Hipolita advanced at the entrance, where a barrier stood, but which opened with Hipolita showing a badge.
Then Hipolita stepped forward and asked them to come.
Juri looked inside, but it was pretty dull.
"My teacher only keeps the top floors with some decoration, this one is empty, because he hardly ever gets visitors and doesn't care about them!" - Hipolita said quietly.
Juri didn't bother and the trio went to a Magic Elevator!
This surprised Juri.
"Don't worry, that's an Elevation Platform, it will take us to-" - Hipolita seeing Juri's surprise, tried to explain.
"I know what an Elevator is, I just didn't expect you guys to have it!" - Juri said calmly.
"Elevator..." - Hipolita scratched her chin, but said nothing more.
She then put in the floor she wishes to go to and they waited as they went up.
Ikiria fearfully held Juri, who smiled at how cute she is.
...
Soon they reached the floor and the door opened!
"I wonder why such a powerful Warrior comes to visit this old man?" - A very jovial voice sounded, Juri looked and there was a tall, slender figure, red skin and 2 ram's horns on his forehead.
'A Tiefling?'- Juri asked himself, already noting his information.
[Skayler, Guardian Archmage of the Kingdom of Virydiam(LORDE) - Level 232 / 217]
Juri narrowed his eyes, he's pretty strong, not to mention he certainly mixes Magic with Rituals!
"Professor, she comes from another continent!" - Said Hippolita without hiding anything, greatly hooking Skayler's curiosity.
"Well, then be my guests!" - Skayler smiled excitedly and the surroundings began to tremble, Juri narrowed her eyes.
"Don't register, it's just something basic!" - Skayler said noticing and smiling.
Juri stopped resisting and nodded to Ikiria, who did the same.
Soon the atmosphere changed and they were in a place resembling a living room, quite comfortable and cozy.
"Please come!" - Said Skayler smilingly sitting down in an armchair!
...
Skayler listened to what Juri had to say regarding the Continent of Luria, as well as his home "Continent".
He was quite interested, even more so when Juri handed him some electronics, he would certainly be entertained for quite a while.
And as a gift for his gifts, that is, an exchange, Skayler talked a lot about the combination of Mana and Rituals.
To tell the truth, it's quite simple, since the purpose of Magicians like him getting power from the Other Side, is to improve their Magic and have a larger arsenal.
So what a Magician seeks in Rituals, is to make a Sacrifice that blends the Paranormal Sigils, as well as using Magical Runes.
With enough study, one can combine them, and when performing a Ritual, one can achieve more, spending little, so to speak.
Of course, Skayler says it's simple, but in the end the difficulty lies in connecting with the Entities, making agreements to be able to use their Negative Elements as spells.
Skayler says that he has contact with the Energy Entity, even though it is the craziest and most chaotic, it holds the greatest destructive magic power.
If mixed with the Element of Fire or Thunder, the power wielded is simply enormous!
It may very well be 3 to 4 times more, not to mention it gains a special property that Magicians call [Chaotic Element]!
Unlike other Elements, the [Chaotic Element] is one that one has no known resistance or methods of resisting it other than by brute force.
How so exactly?
It's just that there's no way for the body to adapt to the [Chaotic Element], respectively Juri couldn't get something like [Chaotic Resistance].
For it is something very strange and incomprehensible, it is only known that it greatly amplifies the Damage and his enemies would hardly have any way to resist it.
Of course, it's not because nobody knows something or someone capable of resisting the [Chaotic Element], that there is no way.
Actually they say that [Elemental Order] would be able to do that, but nobody knows it, they say it's an evolution of [Sacred Element] or [Light Element].
But nobody has confirmed anything yet.
Skayler gave Juri many hints, just as there were so many that Juri received +9 Levels in his [Paranormal Knowledge], making him reach Level 80!
Along with +5 Levels of [Advanced Magical Knowledge], which is at Level 17 now.
Juri had an idea how to start, she needs Pietro's help to gain access to the known Sigils, so comes the main point now.
"How about we trade the Runic Knowledge?" - Juri smiled.
"Sure, what do you have for me?" - Skayler smiled and so did Juri.
...
"Scientific Knowledge... from the little you told me I was already interested, since your Continent had little Magic, it means you had to face the Negative Creatures with Rituals, Sacrifices and Technology, so your Continent's base in this area must be far ahead of my Continent, since you didn't use Magic, but other Energy methods, correct?" - Skayler asked.
"Exactly, called Electricity, we practically use the Thunder Element as a source of Energy, but we don't create it magically, but we create machines and improve them over the centuries to generate more and more energy.
In this way we create large facilities that can generate electricity for entire cities, improving the lifestyle of ordinary people, since with electricity we create refrigerated rooms that can preserve food for a long time, electric stoves, machines to heat up cold food, machines to cool down enclosed places when it's too hot, or heat them up in case of cold or winter..." - Juri began to give several examples.
Soon she took out her cell phone and showed it to Skayler, who was quite interested in its functionality, so knowing that the images and such worked with this Electricity, a way to control the [Thunder Element] so it wouldn't be harmful, interested him greatly.
Of course, Skayler didn't think of this to help the Kingdom or anything, if it's going to help that is, he'll gain tons of resources as such.
His intent is to use the non-magical knowledge of the Juri Continent, to understand Magic!
Skayler is someone who understands the fact that his mind is limited by the standards imposed on him since birth, he understands that he is someone who is very creative, but this creativity limits him.
Now if he has the opportunity to possess such creative knowledge, from a Continent that has turned stone and fire, into technology that allows them to fly through the skies, feed billions and allow them stable lives.
Skayler wishes for this, for he knows that he can become even stronger and his creativity that is stagnant, can reach new heights!
But of course, this will cost him a lot!
Juri was very eager with the Magic Runes of Spells and Enchantments.
She showed her handling of [Elemental Magic] and [Elemental Manipulation].
Skayler was amazed at Juri being able to manipulate Magic in this way, even he cannot, since even though he is an Archmage and has absurd knowledge, he does not have such a colossal Affinity with the Elements.
Neferu could generate ice without enchantments, or do instant spells, because he was an Ice Elemental!
Skayler is a Tiefling, who had the misfortune of not awakening the power of his Demonic Lineage and becoming something of a Wizard like most of his race.
But he found ways around this and became one of the most powerful beings in the region, when the limitations of the world loosened, he grew significantly.
But the focus of this is, Juri's way of generating and manipulating the Elements with his mind or gestures, is impressive, but he could see the limitations and understand some of it.
This came from his absurd and innovative control of Mana.
But something that confused Skayler, was about how Juri could have such control of Mana, but when he learned the way she runs Mana through her veins, it made him look at her with shock and even think she was crazy!
For Skayler and even Neferu, wielding Mana to conjure spells and cast them, is used externally, with the internal effects being minimal!
How so?
Well, Skayler has a [Mana Core], something that every Great Mage will generate upon reaching Level 100!
But before that, they have something called a [Mana Field], which surrounds their bodies and strengthens along with their Magical knowledge.
This [Mana Field] gathers Mana from the surroundings to be used by the Magician.
And the [Mana Field] converts the Mana from the surroundings so that it is purified and usable by the Magician.
So Magic Runes, is simply a more efficient method of accumulating that Mana to conjure spells.
Using Mana to cast spells, only internally, is simply insane!
This is because many have tried it and as a result have blown up or destroyed various parts of their bodies.
This made Juri remember the tests in her 1st life, the intense pain she felt, so she asked the System if there was a problem.
[The Internal Conjuration method learned/developed by the Player, is a valid path that you discovered, the Abilities and Spells generated from the Dungeon were accordingly with that as a basis!]
Juri understood a bit and felt lucky to have [Player's Body].
Now about others being able to do the same, the answer is:
[As the Player has gone through the challenges and damage, thus perfecting and finding the right way to Circulate Mana through the body and manipulate it into Spell power, without the need for a "Mana Field", teaching others such a method is not a problem!]
She asked if she could teach Skayler.
[Skayler used Mana having the "Mana Field" as a base, which later concentrated and formed a "Mana Core", the principles are the same!]
[The System calculates that for Skayler to advance to Tier 4(Level 400), it would be necessary for him to at least learn to clear the "Magic Veins" and circulate Mana through his body naturally!]
[The Player through self-learning and ignorance, developed this method which the System calculates to be simple, but damaging and painful!]
And with that Juri had her answers, so she used 2 trade coins [Knowledge of the Earth] and [Teach to Control Mana]!
Skayler thought little of it, so she threw in her coins as well!
The 1st Coin being [Spell Magic Runes], he is willing to instruct Juri in learning to read and form Magic Runes!
The 2nd coin being the [Magic Rituals] or [Distorted Spells], because to learn them, one needs to have knowledge about Runes.
Skayler was confident with her coins, but Juri said it was not enough, which made Skayler unhappy and Juri said why.
She will give privileged knowledge of her Continent, which alone will be worth all her Runic Knowledge for sure, Skayler says she doesn't know that, where Juri only said.
"Well, as far as I know, I am the only one from my Continent here, so I guess, there must be hundreds or thousands of Archmages with lower, similar or higher Runic Knowledge than yours, who would bid the highest for what I possess?" - Juri is not dumb, it seems that Skayler underestimated her, and greatly.
But that only made him laugh, so he asked what else she desired.
And Juri got straight to the point, she desires [Magic Enchantment Runes], she knows he has it, even though she has no proof, she instinctively knows it, it is unlikely that Skayler being such a powerful Archmage, has not traded with the Dwarves to perfect his Knowledge of the area.
"Hummm... I made a vow not to teach that to anyone else, but... fuck!" - Skayler said in agreement.
And finally, what made Skayler frown, Juri wished for the best Aura Manuals that Skayler can muster.
This surprised him, he said he is not a Warrior.
"You are not a Warrior, but I know you are an Archmage and as far as I know, the curiosity of Magi is something that often leads them to death!
Impossible that you haven't picked up several Aura Techniques to study, as well as having developed your own Spells with them as a basis!" - Juri said.
"Ok, you're a fucking demon, who's the Tiefling here?! I have some of these books in my library, which I will give you access to, because I know you will ask for that too, but anything? I hear you are a Hermaphrodite, will you want my ass too?" - Skayler snorted and crossed his legs.
"You're cute, but I'd rather not fuck my future teacher!" - Juri said laughing.
Skayler snorted, he didn't feel like a teacher right now.
The reason for his discontent? It is that he knows he is being used, and Juri doesn't even disguise it.
Because he is a Tiefling and has a natural talent for deception and lying, he is usually the one who comes out on top, but in the end he is the one at a disadvantage.
