- Magus:

Magus ,also called "truth seekers", are individuals who have learned to control and manipulate magic to perform incredible feats that defy the laws of nature.

They can bend the elements to their will, summon creatures from other worlds from different dimensions, and even manipulate time itself.

Magus are constantly in search of knowledge and truth, and their quest is "endless".

In antiquity, the term "Magus" referred to all-powerful beings, whether they were of other races, humans, or even high-energy creatures. As long as they possessed intelligence, strength, and sought the truth, they could all be considered "magus".

Author's note: Yes, Leylin Blight can already call himself a magus if he wants.

- History:

Magus, as practitioners of magic, are classified into twelve distinct ranks based on a multitude of factors.

These factors may include, but are not limited to, an individual's level of mastery, specialized knowledge, and experience in their respective fields.

The ranking system serves to measure an individual's competence in the field of magic and is crucial for determining the hierarchy and structure of the magical community.

- Affinity with magic

Each individual possesses a degree of affinity for magic, albeit to varying degrees.

The majority of people have such negligible affinity that they are unable to practice magic. However, for those who possess this ability, their aptitudes are classified according to five grades.

The first grade represents the lowest level of aptitude, with less than 1% chance of progressing to become an official mage. The second grade indicates below-average aptitude, with a minimum of 10% chance of progressing.

The third grade is considered average, with a minimum of 30% chance of progressing. The fourth grade is above average, with a minimum of 50% chance of progressing.

Finally, the fifth grade indicates genius-level aptitude, with a minimum of 90% chance of progressing to become an official mage.

Author's note: Leylin Blight has noticed that the witches of the Boiling Isles possess a strong affinity with magic, so he estimated that they have grade 3 for the least skilled and grade 5 for the best.

- Elemental affinity

Magus often have a natural talent for certain elements. They usually excel in one or two elements (possibly more) and are competent in a few others.

For example, Leylin Farlier can control darkness very well and also has some competence in fire magic. He can also use a bit of plant magic and he has acquired some affinity with ice after visiting the ice cave.

These elemental affinities are very important because they affect the type of magic a magus can use best. Magus can always use other elements, but they are not as good as their main elements.

This becomes particularly evident when a rank 1 magus wants to become a rank 2 magus . He must choose the element for which he has the most talent, otherwise he will not be able to complete more than 80% of the elemental essence conversion process. This means he will never become a rank 2 mage.

But when a Magus reaches rank 7, their elemental talents are no longer very important, as they have such a level of understanding of the laws that they can do whatever they want with their mind. They can manipulate any element, such as darkness, fire, water, ice, earth, wind or light.

Author's note: It is possible to gain an affinity or even strengthen it with various elements, and this is currently the case with Willow.

- The paths

Magus are individuals endowed with mysterious powers. In antiquity, those who had great power were called magi.

There are many ways to become a magus.

However, these alternative paths that a magus could follow may not bring the benefits that many expect.

Time is the ultimate arbiter. In the long history of rivalry, several tens of thousands of years have passed.

Branded Swordsmen, elemental bards, and divine warriors have all perished with time. Only the most orthodox mages have survived.

For some subclasses, even if they can benefit from favorable conditions for progression, most of their paths on the path of advancement are obstructed.

This is not even comparable to orthodox mages, who can see continuous progress through constant cultivation of advanced meditation techniques.

- Known magus classes

Warlock:

Warlocks were a unique type of magus. Through devouring, copulation, or other methods, they obtained the lineage of powerful magical creatures or even the lineage of creatures from another world.

Moreover, by continuously drawing on inner power, warlocks have a greater innate talent for casting spells and they completely surpass an ordinary magus of the same rank.

However, warlocks are on the path of lineages. With the passage of time and the reproduction of seeds, the descendants of these warlocks will often see their lineage thin out, losing the effect of replenishing the origins of the lineage.

This single point has made warlocks become few in number.

Bio booster:

The path of a Bio Booster is another branch of the ancient magus. These ancient magus were extremely strange and required their heirs to have the aptitude to become both Knights and Magus.

Moreover, they had to have a Bio Boosting armor. After obtaining the armor, the strength of a Bio Booster would increase strongly, and after fusion, the armor would automatically change the host's body, which would continuously strengthen it. This armor could be inherited.

At the moment when a Bio Booster gained the armor left by another higher-ranking Bio Booster, he immediately gained more strength. As a Bio Booster, the gains from inheriting the Bio Boosting armor of an ancestor were not limited to a significant increase in strength.

Having the armor was also like wearing an existence that could help with knowledge and experience.

Author's note: Willow can become a Bio booster , if leylin want it .

Branded Swordsman

A branded swordsman is an advanced version of a knight, thanks to alchemical runes, a formation of magic spells would be marked on their body, allowing them to acquire power.

The ancient branded swordsmen were similar to lineage warlocks and elemental bards, who were among the strongest professions in the magus sub-branch.

Their specialties were their physical defense and offensive powers, which were considered the nightmares of their enemies (usually orthodox Magus).

The power of an official branded swordsman was equivalent to at least that of a rank 1 magus .

Branded swordsmen place more emphasis on physical strength training. Through regular practice and marking, the strength of nature would be stored inside their body. In crucial moments, the energy would burst out explosively.

After acquiring knowledge of certain runes, Leylin discovered a method capable of creating branded knights with abilities of rank 3 magus and even rank 4 magus.

Author's note: Yes, I've already said it, Leylin Blight nerfs Willow a lot since she perfectly fulfills the conditions to take this path.

Demon Magus

A special class of magus passing pacts with demons to strengthen their own power.

Elemental Bard:

A class from antiquity. It is said to have disappeared.

Steel Knight:

It is said that Steel Knights come from a world, the Steel Lava World, close to the World of Magus .The ancient Magus were inspired to modify their body with certain methods, which they obtained after conquering the world, and which can evolve into a state similar to that of Steel Knights. This is done at the cost of the possibility of being permanently blocked at their current strength.

Prophet

A magus who cultivates by seeing fate and interacting with it.

Note: Leylin has a meditation technique to follow these paths but it is incomplete and flawed.

- The degree of power:

This is the official standard that magus use to measure the extent of their power. A single unit, as a standard, is equivalent to the energy that can be completely released by 1 gram of magic crystal.

- Meditation techniques:

Meditation techniques in particular are similar to visualization techniques. An acolyte forms mental runes in his mental space to strengthen his spiritual strength, and as he creates more mental runes, his spiritual strength becomes more powerful.

- Elementary meditation techniques

Elementary meditation techniques are the simplest and most fundamental techniques for producing mental runes and resemble visualization techniques.

However, they have limited applications and benefits for aspiring magi. To officially become a magus, the acolyte must consume Grine water, a substance that greatly enhances spiritual strength at the expense of life force, and use a spell pattern to modify their innate spell.

This method is risky and inefficient, as it may not guarantee a compatible spell pattern for further progression, resulting in backlash, and it may also alter the Magus' spiritual strength over time, hindering their progression.

Morning Stars (rank 4 magi) who have relied on this method are only slightly stronger than Crystal Phase 3 (peak rank 3 magi), but they can never reach the level of a true Morning Star.

Advanced meditation techniques

A magus can greatly benefit from advanced meditation techniques tailored to his spiritual strength.

These techniques can help him build mental runes faster than elementary runes, and also create an innate spell in his sea of consciousness at each level.

Advanced meditation techniques can also directly increase a mage's rank, without needing Grine Water or a spell pattern.

Moreover, the innate spell formed by the technique will match and improve the meditation technique, avoiding any conflict or interference with other innate spells.

Small note:

Magus are individuals who possess a unique ability to manipulate and control supernatural forces.

However, this power they possess also makes them walking sources of radiation.

The body of each magus acts as a small nuclear reactor, emitting harmful radiation that can have devastating effects on ordinary human beings.

Only other magus can resist and tolerate these radiations.

For an ordinary human, living near magus without adequate protection could lead to serious health problems and possibly premature death.

Author's note: This is why Willow is currently kept away from others in the story, if ordinary humans approach her...

The meditation of magus is the cultivation of spiritual strength, a kind of method to strengthen their soul.

He (Longbottom) knew that under the reign of magus ,commoners lived miserably. Magus and nobles enjoyed everything, while others had to suffer from day to night.

Even in this case, they might not even have been able to get a good meal out of it. They could be accused of crimes for offending the nobility, or in the worst case, they would be killed without recourse!

It was difficult for common people to be allowed to progress, even if they had the aptitudes.

Even if they had the chance to enter a guild, they would still be discriminated against and even treated as guinea pigs or cannon fodder.

Of course, if one only had resentment and no strength, one would be mercilessly massacred by the magus .After all, power was always in the hands of the magus

PS: Longbottom is a person who was refused as a "knight" apprentice by Leylin Farlier and ended up becoming a rank 2 magus but unfortunately for him, Leylin Farlier was still manipulating him and sacrificed him to progress to rank 3 magus (warlock) at the same time as his official student Baelin

who had also reached rank 2 magus.

Knight:

There are different ways to gain strength in the world of magus .One of them is to become a magus, but this requires a rare gift that few people possess.

Another method is to follow the path of knights, open to all those who are willing to work hard.

The realms of the common world, as well as the nobility, were generally made up of knights. Knights are warriors who have undergone rigorous training and have activated their inner life energy.

They have physical abilities that far surpass those of ordinary humans. They are also proficient in the use of various weapons and killing techniques.

Some knights even have special secret skills that can trigger a burst of power.

Knight progression is divided into three ranks:

* Preparatory Knight (normal human) - A warrior unable to activate his inner life energy even after completing knight training. His only recourse is to enter the battlefield and engage in fierce and bloody battles. These battles can trigger his inner life energy and allow him to become a knight.

* Knight (Rank 1 Acolyte) - Warrior who has activated his inner life energy. When he reaches this stage, he feels a surge of blood flow in his body, causing his arteries to dilate. This energy circulation reaches every part of his body, creating a warm current that gradually rises to an inverted triangle area located 5 cm below the bottom of his belly. This is where the life energy gathers and where the mind can be cultivated.

* Great Knight (= Rank 2 Acolyte) - A warrior with extreme physical strength, capable of single-handedly fighting a charging cavalry troop.

The advanced version of a Great Knight is a Branded Swordsman. Part of the information concerning the legacy of the ancient Branded Swordsman has been widely disseminated. After some modifications, it was more suitable for ordinary humans. This gave rise to Knights and Great Knights.

The path of the knight.

To become a knight, people use training methods known as "knight training method".

These methods involve manipulating breathing frequency to adjust body secretions and produce more life essence.

Cross Blade Technique

This is a secret skill inherited from the Farlier family for generations. It combines a sword style, footwork, and a unique breathing technique.

The essence of the cross blade technique is to use strong centrifugal force to attack the enemy.

After many improvements and refinements, the cross blade technique has become a high-level secret skill.

It can help you reach the realm of Great Knights.

Rumor has it that the cross blade technique and breathing technique were obtained by the founder of the Farlier family after dozens of bloody battles, where he finally obtained them from the corpse of a knight.

Among the many knight families, it is considered to be upper-middle level.

After the optimization of the breathing technique performed by Leylin Farlier's AI chip, it could even be comparable to the secret scroll techniques of these small kingdoms!

The cross blade technique has five techniques:

Cross breathing technique: The breathing technique consists of using external stimulations to activate the inner life energy and stimulate it inside the body.

It includes a sequence of specific breathing patterns, a description of the experience, and an explanation of the technique. To begin, the practitioner must hold their breath for 65 seconds, then take three long breaths followed by a short breath, as explained in the description.

A complete round of this breathing technique takes about 5 minutes. After practicing the knight's breathing technique, the body will expel a black substance that contains impurities it has accumulated.

This improves the body's condition and its physical attributes, but the improvements will gradually diminish over time.

The breathing technique was not simple and some aspects required more than words to make sense.

One had to practice and follow complex steps. It was only then that one could achieve enlightenment.

The Farlier family's breathing technique has its limits.

Practicing it for more than 20 minutes a day is not only ineffective but also harmful to the body. To increase the frequency of practicing the breathing technique, medicinal products must be used as supplements.

Basic cross blade sword technique: horizontal slash, vertical slash, piercing attack, and oblique slash.

Secret killing blow - Cross Slash: a killing blow is a technique that combines the essence of various deadly skills and uses a high level of skill to enhance killing power. It is executed by quickly cutting vertically then horizontally, creating a luminous cross with the merged blows.

Secret technique - Cross Star: Great Knights possessed many secret techniques, but most of them only improved a single attribute. Cross Star was a rare technique that improved three attributes (Strength, Speed, and Defense). It made the body twice as big and covered it with a layer of transparent armor.

Cross Star was more powerful than other Great Knight techniques, but it also had the same drawback: it left the user in a weakened state for some time after using it.

Basic Cross Blade footwork technique: advance, retreat, and dodge

The ranking system:

It serves to measure an individual's competence in the field of magic and is crucial for determining the hierarchy and structure of the magical community.

There are twelve different ranks that a magus can achieve, which are divided into three acolyte ranks and nine magus ranks.

Magus ranks have three major bottlenecks, which are official magus ranks 1, 4, and 7.

- Rank 1 acolyte:

A rank 1 acolyte is a person with stronger spiritual strength than an average person.

At the same time, he is able to move energy particles and store them inside his body and is a novice in conceptualizing the creation of magical power.

The spiritual strength of a rank 1 acolyte is about twice that of an adult.

To reach rank 1 acolyte, one must build 8 mental runes.

- Rank 2 acolyte:

A rank 2 acolyte will be able to access the formula of a magic spell and cast the spell in its complete form.

Rank 2 acolytes are capable of casting some rank 0 spells. Although simple, they enhance their combat capabilities to such an extent that they have surpassed ordinary Knights and raised their strength to the same level as the great knight or even more. To reach rank 2 acolyte, one must build 24 mental runes.

- Rank 3 Acolytes:

The rank 3 acolyte is the final step before becoming an official magus.

They have exponentially greater spiritual strength than ordinary humans. They have a deeper understanding of spell theory and its use in combat.

They master techniques such as instant incantation, which allows for extremely rapid casting of prepared spells.

Even Great Knights are no match for them. Rank 3 acolytes have always been considered the preparatory stage for becoming an official magus.

The faster one progresses as a rank 3 acolyte, the greater their chances of one day becoming an official magus.

To reach acolyte level 3, one must master two spell patterns and have a spiritual strength of 7.

You reach acolyte level 3 by coating your face, limbs, and chest with an elixir called reactive elixir, then your body will feel a terrible itching.

You must then enter a deep meditative state, under these conditions, and reshape the mental runes, making them stick together into a single larger rune, to strengthen your sea of consciousness and create a solid foundation. Then, your sea of consciousness will experience an absolute black space devoid of light, and coming out of this black space, you will enter acolyte rank 3, but if you fail, your organs will give out and you will die.

The spiritual strength of a rank 3 acolyte is between 10 and 15.

Author's note: This is why Leylin Blight was worried about Willow's failure to promote to rank 3 acolyte.

- Rank 1 magus:

For an acolyte to progress, a spiritual strength of 15, a high-level meditation technique, and a rank 1 spell pattern are required.

The requirements for warlocks and official magus are almost the same, with only the additional requirement of a lineage.

Warlocks develop innate spells unlike normal magi, the formation of innate spells depended heavily on luck, purity, and concentration of their lineage's blood essence.

In the process of forming their innate spells, another scenario could occur. This only occurs when the blood essence of the lineage is extremely rich, almost the same as the origin of the lineage.

In such circumstances, there would be an additional innate spell. The spiritual strength of a rank 1 mage is between 20 and 80.

* For Magus who could materialize their spiritual strength, their condensation of spiritual strength far exceeded that of a rank 1 Magus. With the weak spiritual strength of a rank 1 Magus, it was impossible to resist attacks produced by the spiritual strength of a rank 2 Magus, which resulted in a situation where the power of a rank 1 Magus was nothing compared to that of a rank 2 Magus.

Author's note: Acolytes can change meditation techniques, but for a level 1 magus, once their sea of consciousness is stabilized, it would be extremely inconvenient for them to decide to change meditation techniques.

An official magus can live at least 300 years and if they take a warlock path it's 600 years.

- Rank 2 Magus:

The advancement requirement is the conversion of elemental essence, which is quite easy to understand.

The biological composition changes completely, and after the brain or body is elementalized, it is theoretically almost cut off from ordinary human reproduction.

The interaction and mutual radiation between magus could eventually give birth to individuals with magus aptitudes. The body is no longer essential, belonging to an alternative elemental life.

The conditions for becoming a Rank 2 Magus were that his spiritual strength reach 80, that his elemental essence conversion be greater than 80%, and that he begin to solidify his spiritual strength.

* Spiritual strength lacked form or substance, and the various colored spells that Leylin Farlier had seen were actually just the appearance of elemental particles that were in the air. As for spiritual strength, it acted as a catalyst and initiated the spell casting process. However, all these things could not be observed with the naked eye.

Once a magus has reached rank 2, he could directly draw his spiritual strength from his sea of consciousness and materialize it into the most elemental energy particle. This was something that even the most ordinary person could see!

* When it came to magus of rank lower than 2, who were unable to materialize their spiritual strength, this ability made defeat practically impossible!

* After all, for Magus who could materialize their spiritual strength, their condensation of spiritual strength far exceeded that of a rank 1 magus. With the weak spiritual strength of a rank 1 magus, it was impossible to resist attacks produced by the spiritual strength of a Rank 2 Magus, which resulted in a situation where the power of a Rank 1 Magus was nothing compared to that of a Rank 2 Magus.

- Rank 3 magus.

The requirements to advance to rank 3 magus were that spiritual strength reach the limit of 200 and that it solidify its spiritual strength to 100%.

There are three stages in spiritual strength: vapor, liquid, and crystalline forms.

These spiritual strength particles, as they approach rank 3, gradually condense. During the three stages of vapor, liquid, and crystal, they condense further to form a point mass.

The difference in strength between each rank is estimated to be between 3 and 5 times.

Consequently, newly promoted rank 3 magi and rank 3 magi with crystallized spiritual strength would have an unimaginable difference in strength despite both being rank 3.

The estimated spiritual strength of a rank 3 magus is between 200 and 400.

* The calculation of spiritual strength data for the third rank has been divided into three sub-ranks and their corresponding abilities presented significant disparities.

After all, 100 kilos of cotton and 100 kilos of steel may weigh the same, but their density and durability are completely different.

Spiritual strength statistics varied considerably between the different phases of the third rank. Between the vapor phase and the hydro phase, a huge difference existed, and with the crystal phase, the disparity was even more terrifying.

Magus with such capabilities could already be considered as reservists for rank 4 magus .

Crystalline phase spiritual strength was the exact basic material for the construction of the "point mass" necessary to pass to rank 4 magus.

Small note: As a Magus, spiritual strength and magical power are the most important attributes while vitality is the basis on which spiritual strength is built and sustained, and it must be sufficiently sufficient; otherwise, the Magus's body would collapse.

In antiquity, rank 2 and 3 magus were considered to have just finished their apprenticeship and, therefore, they were naturally not required to participate in battle. They had survived and passed on their meditation techniques.

Ps : A Rank 3 magus can live at least 1000 years

Rank 4 Magus (Morning Star)

The road to Morning Stars is vast and long. Many Magus of the Crystal Phase don't even have the chance to come into contact with this bottleneck, that being said, the first threshold for advancing towards the Morning Stars realm is that their spiritual strength reach a critical value, filling your entire sea of consciousness. One must condense their crystallized spiritual strength into "a point mass".

The requirements for a warlock to progress were largely similar to those of a Magus, the only difference being the lineage requirements. There was a huge difference between rank 3 and rank 4, rank 3 and lower Magus mainly use spiritual strength. However, once this threshold is crossed, Magus of the "Morning Stars", "Radiant Moon" and "Breaking Dawn" ranks will have to come into contact with "soul force" or their "point mass" and pay particular attention to exploring the potential of their soul.

"The Morning Star realm for humans is equivalent to the Ancient Dragon in our Dragon race." explains a dragon in a Book.

"At this position, the power of the domain has penetrated our bones, and our dragon may also have been developed to the limit. Moreover, all our spiritual strength, magical power, physical strength and even our blood lineage, under the influence of certain rules, will concentrate into a 'point mass'. This point mass is what humans call a 'Morning Star', and what we call a 'Dragon Crystal'." states the dragon in his book containing the dragon king's meditation technique.

The Morning Stars realm is where the paths of Magus will condense. All creatures in the magus world of this realm are all the same.

The point mass formed of hundreds and thousands of energies can refine a person's strength.

Therefore, there is a difference like that between heaven and earth between Morning Stars and Rank 3 Magi.

The Morning Stars rank is divided into 5 stars, with 1 star being the weakest and 5 stars being the peak.

There is a special 6th star level, in which the user can fight on par with a Radiant Moon magus, and can only be unlocked by very rare geniuses. The spiritual strength of a Rank 4 Morning Star is between 500 and 1000. Soul strength is between 50 and 100.

* The point mass represented everything for a magus. It represented their journey, their lineage, their strength, and even their soul!

* This process was therefore irreversible. At the moment when the ascension to the realm of a Morning Star failed and the point mass became unstable, a terrifying explosion could occur.

* If a magus found themselves in such a situation, they would end up without a corpse.

* Historically, Magus who did not succeed in reaching the Morning Star realm and who fell were far more numerous than those who succeeded.

* The power of the point mass, also known as soul force, was the next evolution of spiritual strength. Only morning star magi could possess such a thing.

* Magus who were below the Morning Star realm, without soul force defense of equivalent power, had not the slightest chance of resisting these blades. This was the reason why Morning Stars magi had no enemy at rank 3. Soul force was simply too terrifying!

* As a holy land of magi, Sky City was the most advanced research center on the central continent. It had independently developed a standard for measuring the strength of a Morning Star.

* They had divided Morning Stars into five levels represented by five stars, with one-star Magus being the weakest. A four-star grade was already at the upper level of Morning Stars, while five stars was the peak! However, even four stars was already terrifying. Most Morning Stars were around one to three stars.

* Five-star Morning Stars or higher were absolutely powerful, and even Radiant Moon, would be worried facing them.

* Sky City could be called the holy land of magi, but there were few morning stars of this caliber among their ranks.

Author's note: The damage inflicted by a Morning Star rank magus was immense. Their ultimate techniques had power comparable to nuclear bombs and could annihilate countries.

It is also specified that they have the qualification to travel in the infinite sea of worlds.

Rank 5 magus (Radiant Moon):

The soul of a Morning Star was like a star, brilliant and condensed, but a Radiant Moon, which had just advanced, had a soul ten times larger than that of a Morning Star, forming a large full sphere.

The threshold to reach the Radiant Moon rank is when the spiritual force approaches the critical value (1000) and the soul force reaches 100, transforming the soul from a star into a radiant moon. The soul, which had the shape of a moon, showed how much soul force one had with its radiance. Rank 5 Magus had to train and fill it.

The different levels of fullness represented the different stages of New Moon, Half Moon, and Full Moon Magi.

Stages

New Moon:

Estimated spiritual force: 1000-2000, Estimated soul force: 100 - 200

Half Moon:

Estimated spiritual force: 2000-3000, Estimated soul force: 200 - 300

Full Moon:

Estimated spiritual force: 3000-4000, Estimated soul force: 300 - 400.

Rank 6 magus (Breaking Dawn)

The soul of a Radiant Moon is a large full sphere filled with negative energy (Yin). The requirements to reach the Radiant Sun are that the spiritual force approaches the value of 4000 and the soul force reaches its peak, transforming the negative energy of a moon into positive energy (Yang), making it resemble a Sun.

When a magus reaches the Breaking Dawn rank, they can begin to grasp the power of laws. Laws can greatly increase the power of magic and soul aptitude. Once the understanding of a law exceeds 50%, a Breaking Dawn magus will descend into a dormant state and undergo a terrifying qualitative change where all statistics will increase considerably.

If the understanding of the law can't be completed to reach rank 7, they will be unable to wake up for eternity.

All statistics of a Breaking Dawn magus are in the new measurements of the Celestial Astral Race.

Author's note: The Celestial Astral race is an extremely powerful race that possesses strength equivalent to a rank 4 magus at birth.

Small note: They are declared as exterminated but the circumstances are unknown.

Rank 7 magus (being of laws):

It is only after completely grasping the power of a single "law" that a Magus will be considered to have entered rank 7 and the realm of laws. Continuing to progress means having understood and assimilated several laws as well as having begun to merge these laws into a single force; at least 2 laws would be necessary to be considered rank 8.

Rank 7 Magus ,this realm above Rank 6 Magi or what is also called Breaking Dawn Magi, are magus who have transcended the limits of their body and species.

Rank 8 magus:

Rank 8 consists of understanding multiple laws and finding one's own path, merging these laws into one's own.

This foundation must be solid enough to adapt to the laws of space and time in order to understand the laws of space and time to advance to rank 9.

Rank 9 magus:

The requirement for rank 9 is to understand the laws of space and time and a complete path.

The path must also be able to merge with the laws of space and time; once this is done, the rank 9 mage is close to eternity, but not quite, omniscient and all-powerful in the original universe in which they understood.

Special ability:

The rank 9 magus can learn everything that happens in the astral plane in an instant and immediately perform any task they wish.

Nothing in "the astral plane" can deceive them, and the life or death of any being in their universe can be controlled by a simple thought.

They can also instantly teleport anywhere in their universe with a simple thought.

After reaching rank 9, their lifespan is unlimited.

Small note: After reaching rank 9, the magus's lifespan is unlimited.

Thanks to his new power, Leylin Farlier could now sense many other beings outside his universe, possessing power similar to his own.

He could even detect another nearby universe, of equal power to his own.

The outer universes contained technology, supernatural abilities, and all sorts of different beings.

He could even sense the planet on which he had lived before his transmigration.

The requirement for rank 10 is to understand that the next task is to create a law that surpasses all others, standing on the path of truth.

Rank 10 magus:

To become immortal outside one's own universe, it is necessary to create a superior law that surpasses all others.

It is mentioned in the sequel "Overgod Ascension".

The World of Gods:

The World of Gods consists of a set of small worlds and planes, as well as some large merged worlds.

This world has the reputation of having the most powerful protective sphere, called the crystal wall of the World of Gods. Time flows differently in this world.

Ranks 1 to 20 are mortal ranks, while ranks 21 and above are legendary ranks.

Gods are actually legendaries who have understood the laws and use divinity to ignite their divine sparks in order to create their own divine realms to house angels/demons.

If they descend into the realm, they are technically legendary.

* A person without faith in the world of gods would be considered a monster and would have absolutely no chance of survival.

Fortunately, the deities only had a great influence and only marked the souls of their own faithful and fanatics. They didn't pay much attention to ordinary believers who had only been slightly influenced by the glory of the gods.

What was even more ingenious is that unless one assumed the position of priest, it was practically impossible to determine the extent of one's faith.

Anyway, it was enough to pray at fixed times and occasionally make donations to the church. Leylin Farlier felt that he could perfectly accomplish such superficial actions.

The Lava World:

It is one of the many worlds in the universe.

There are several species in the lava world. The main ones are the Emberwing race and the Fire Elementals, among others.

The first race that Leylin encounters is that of a human giant with black skin, measuring 2 to 3 meters tall, with a horn on the head and extremely strong resistance to heat. They have no vocal cords but create sounds with a method similar to ventriloquism.

There are only a few species possessing magical abilities qualified as "intellectual".

Various other species live in this world.

This world has already been visited by ancient magus, as well as by magus from Jupiter's Lightning.

The largest continent is called "Blazing Crown". It is located in the heart of a sea of lava. All other land masses can be considered small islands.

There seems to be a different set of laws of physics in this world, and the spiritual force of the magus world is almost unusable without modifications.

There is also a different ranking system.

This continent includes the Divine Flame Empire composed entirely of fire elemental beings, the Atlan Union composed of the Emberwing race, a life form similar to humans, and the Allied Kingdom composed of the rest.

The Emberwing race resembles humans but has feathers on the forehead and on the back of the arms.

The Divine Flame Empire is the most powerful. On the other side, the Atlan Union and the Allied Kingdom must collaborate to repel their invasions.

The Atlan Union possesses a precious resource called the fire source stone, which can increase soul strength to an unknown degree. They also have a meditation technique, called the Fire Feather Technique, which combines physical and soul in a unique way.

After the machinations of Jupiter's Lightning, the 3 elders of Ouroboros found themselves trapped in this world.

Leylin arrived 5 years later on a rescue mission after the death of one of the three great dukes of Ouroboros.

The Atlan Union is led by Scarlet Eye, whose strength is equivalent to that of a Half Moon Radiant Moon mage.

He has a trade alliance with Zegna of Jupiter's Lightning who receives fire source stones in exchange for spell formations and others.

The World of Magus:

It is one of the many worlds in the universe. It is a place where magic is the main source of power, and those who use it are called magi.

They have incredible abilities, such as circumventing the laws of nature, summoning creatures from other dimensions, and even manipulating time.

The world of magus is full of wonder and mystery, where anything is possible.

The World of Magus resembles medieval Europe but with an additional layer of mystery created by the use of magic.

Small note: Beings of rank 7 and above from the World of Magus all live in the depths of the World of Magus, near the core, because the closer they are to the will of the World of Magus , the more they can draw advantages in terms of understanding the laws.

Leylin was entrusted with the position of ruler of the surface of the World of Magus after being promoted to rank 6 (almost rank 7). There are 7 levels below the surface, each with different rulers, all ranked 7 and above.

Dreamscape:

It is another dimension that is everywhere without being visible, it is where the dreams of every living being reside and which constantly changes to adapt to the current environment.

It is an entire dimension created solely from the dreams of all intelligent creatures.

Time and space are intangible and do not function as in the World of Magus.

Due to the instabilities of the dreamscape, weak creatures can instantly become powerful, and creatures at the top can become dust in an instant.

This leads to the fact that the dreamscape houses entities of rank higher than 7 who can use laws but can only have this power for a few days.

Dreamforce:

It is a very special and powerful element, which has a strong affinity with illusion magic. Dreamforce is not weaker than the power of laws.

It was rediscovered by Leylin who developed a particular affinity towards it at rank 5.

Nightmareforce:

It is a superior form of Dreamforce used by Leylin to create his path of original sin.

The World of Purgatory:

It is one of the many worlds in the universe.

It comprises 7 continents. The Holy City is located on the Hail continent of the World of Purgatory. In this world, the rulers of each continent are called dignitaries and are actually rank 8 beings of law.

The Will of the World seems to be benevolent and welcoming towards the chaos brought by the dignitaries, but it is actually in a deep sleep.

It is said that there would be more than 8 dignitaries (1 per continent) in the World of Purgatory, they would be hidden and occupy the oceans. The Will of the World may be a dignitary.

This world has a greater racial diversity than the surface of the World of Magi according to Leylin.

Two types of power enhancement are mainly used in this world, others are probably used by minorities.

- The first is Beast Mastery:

The significant presence of spiritual beasts allows people to capture the souls of these beasts to allow them to summon them to fight or move.

The beasts found in this world range from rank 0 to 4 for the vast majority. Higher rank beasts are much rarer, they also allow strengthening the soul of beast masters.

The techniques and formations used to capture and tame the souls of these beasts are common/rare from ranks 1 to 3.

Only noble families, possessing great wealth or organizations have the necessary training to tame the souls of higher rank beasts.

- The second is the path of the Sacrificed:

The inhabitants of this world grant their loyalties to the dignitaries and with the help of sacrifices, accomplished missions, or devotion to the laws carried by the dignitaries, they are rewarded with the strength shared by these same dignitaries.

At rank 4, one can materialize the dignitary to which one is affiliated.

At rank 5 and above, a symbol is engraved on our body to swear loyalty and greatly increase our link with our dignitary.

Ranks 6 and above are extremely rare and require a real understanding of the laws of the dignitary and the ideas conveyed by him. In general, rank 7 is almost impossible to reach because the link with the dignitary would be too strong, the sacrificer would become a puppet.

Leylin discovers thanks to AI Chip that the power granted by the dignitaries would be fixed on the sea of consciousness and the cells of the sacrificer.

The dignitary has no obligation towards his faithful, he can seal or retract his powers without counterpart.

It is possible to combine these two power systems.

PS: It is possible to make sacrifices to the will of a world to benefit from aided gifts.
