"Ronald, we're about to head back to the arid region ahead!"
Navigating back and forth between the mountains, Ronald and Lilu crossed the distance faster than when they arrived.
As the desolate arid landscape reappeared before them.
Lilu didn't even mind the discomfort of this arid environnt, speaking with considerable excitent:
"Once we return to the starting point, I can also contact the association!"
Ronald directly shared his thoughts:
"Don't rush, once we return, I want to experint with my spells first. Many things here are quite different."
"Spells... Oh right, spells!" Ronald's words suddenly made Lilu realize, "I need to test them too. In this world, so things really can't be viewed the sa as outside."
"..."
With their next objective decided, Ronald and Lilu naturally began their execution.
After leaving the mountainous terrain, they landed at a safe distance from giant attacks and began testing their spells.
On Ronald's side, there was no need to elaborate, it was mainly about testing the effects of each spell.
Lilu's side was a bit different. Besides trying out spells, she frequently took out various small items from her bag and tested them one by one, sotis needing Ronald to confirm the effects.
...
A quarter of an hour passed.
On Ronald's side, since it was only testing spells, he finished first.
As for the results—it was quite satisfactory.
Firstly, Ronald could use spells without possessing their originals, with only enhanced effects and no other changes.
For sothing like "Astronomy Master," which possessed the original but not all spells, the actual effects were greatly enhanced, yet there was no qualitative change.
Only "The Origin of Species" and "Divine Cody."
This is where the type that Ronald possesses the original and has mastered all spells results in unique changes in certain special spells.
In "Divine Cody - Hell Chapter," the malice sac, originally a spell that incites the evil desires within humans, has transford into a tangible malice sac in the real world, where living beings can be cast into it for punishnt.
In "Divine Cody - Heavenly Chapter," the "Chariot of God" which Ronald just experienced, needs no further description now.
In "Divine Cody - Purgatory," "Pride Original Sin" underwent a change. Originally a relatively simple language skill, it has now beco a spell that truly controls others' bodies and souls, increasing its danger level by several notches.
In addition, there's the "Spirit Prison" that Ronald hadn't experinted with.
Originally used to cleanse an anomalous world, the transformation of this spell is perhaps the greatest of all. It now seems capable of interfering with the world itself, and even with Ronald's exaggerated magic power, he found it hard to continue halfway through chanting the spell.
Ronald had a vague premonition.
During the late Dark Age, the abilities used by the strongest casters to change the world may have a special connection with the "Divine Cody" that cannot be separated!
Apart from this, the changes in "Origin of Species" are comparatively simpler.
Here, the "Complete Technique" underwent a qualitative change.
This spell, originally extrely invoking life and capable of constantly correcting states, now has the ability to influence surrounding life.
Once activated, this complete technique allows Ronald to induce genetic mutations in surrounding life, achieving either victory over an enemy or universal utility for rescuing companions.
Lastly, there are the three original works with single functions.
"Maze Picture Book," "Rain Mist Divine Hamr," "Bradshaw's Railway Guide."
"Maze Picture Book" - currently there's no ti to test;
"Bradshaw's Railway Guide" - the spell is entirely passive and can't be tested;
"Rain Mist Divine Hamr" - upon chanting the incantation, a divine figure vaguely appeared in the air, but since there's no rainwater in the current environnt, the subsequent changes could not be observed.
"..."
After testing various changes, Ronald felt his confidence, initially scared away by "Four Heavenly Gates," was coming back. With these spells cycled through, battling those oversized giants wasn't entirely impossible.
"Ronald, so of the things I brought can't be used anymore."
Having acquired so many new abilities, Ronald, of course, was considering how to change his combat style. At this mont, Lilu, having tested her tools, gestured and approached:
"Things like this mirror that used to reflect curses and grievances now can't reveal anything, not even good enough as a makeup mirror; conversely—like this pistol that can shoot magic power as bullets, its effect is way stronger now than before!"
Lilu explained her tools tirelessly.
Ronald didn't need to probe to see the rmaid's current state—
Her mood didn't show a slightest hint of distress, entirely curious about the changes in her items!
This attitude.
Really matched her deanor along the way.
Thinking of this, Ronald shrugged and then asked:
"Once you've confird everything, should we prepare to continue flying back?"
Lilu nodded imdiately, while beginning to stuff her items back into her backpack:
"I'm fine, you can take off whenever you're ready."
"..."
"From the relationship between the entire earth and sky, our understanding begins to form!"
Ronald chanted a spell, and their figures rose into the air again.
Perhaps due to the changes from this experint, even their mindset during flight was different.
Even the monotonous desolation of the arid region below.
Now looking down from above, it surprisingly turned into an acceptable unique landscape.
Without tidal waves dominated by water elents or giant threats ford by mountain-like earth elents, the arid and desolate land unfolded inch by inch before them, narrating silent tales of its ancient existence.
An ordinary person, walking through this place, could easily get utterly lost without any reference.
Of course, Ronald wouldn't lose direction.
With spells that ensure direction at all tis, he flew once more towards his target with clarity.
In an even shorter ti than it took to leave, they successfully returned to the starting point where the ground's pit and the instrunt Lilu had embedded in the ground remained unchanged.
"I'll go check on my instrunt and explain the situation to the people at the association!"
After landing, Lilu imdiately headed toward her communication instrunt. Once adjusted, she began her dialogue with the other side and found ti to ask Ronald:
"Ronald, we're back now, but..."
"Without the guidance of the blood trail, where should we go next?"
