Igor only half-understood what the World Setting Technique said; in fact, the parts he didn't understand slightly outweighed those he did.
But Igor was in no rush. He knew all of ti was now his. If he waited patiently, he would eventually unravel these currently ssy and incredible matters.
"What do you an, 'the answers you spoke of will also awaken'?" Igor asked, still confused.
"You and I are currently in the Inner World, where everything is chaotic. You can imagine anything you wish, create whatever you like. As long as you can conceive of it, it can materialize here."
"I know how things work in the Inner World. What I don't understand is why you're telling about the Inner World now. Was everything you said before just an illusion?" Igor was puzzled. He felt that the World Setting Technique could no longer perfectly align with the spell system he described. Flaws seed to be everywhere, so flimsy they looked like they would crumble with the slightest breeze.
However, the World Setting Technique again adopted an air of enigmatic profundity, fobbing Igor off with the sa line: "Your comprehension isn't deep enough. Only when you reach that level will you understand the aning of my words." That sentence seed to be a master key, fitting any lock.
It was only Igor, with his childlike innocence, who took the World Setting Technique at his word. Had it been anyone else at this mont, they probably would have jumped up and decried the World Setting Technique as a fraud.
Igor scratched his head, thinking hard. Such entanglent posed a certain risk; Kuren was a living example. Igor knew he couldn't let himself get twisted up like Kuren. So, throughout his contemplation, he was extrely cautious, terrified of taking a wrong step and plunging into an abyss.
"Spells are things your kind created, an achievent of yours. We don't deny that stuff is very powerful. But we were not created by you. We have existed in this world since ancient tis; you could say even earlier than your kind."
"You make it sound as if you're ancient," Igor said dismissively.
"Our concept of ti is different from yours, so your perception is quite normal. I'm not surprised in the least."
Igor was speechless. He felt he and this World Setting Technique were on completely different levels. Every single thing he said was thoroughly picked apart by this Technique.
"'Your kind,' 'our kind'... what you're saying seems very different from the world as I understand it."
"That's because your comprehension hasn't reached that level yet. So, it's quite normal."
"Can you stop harping on about this 'comprehension' business? Right now, you have before you soone with low comprehension. How are you going to convince him?" Igor tried using a goading tactic, though his attempt was amateurish and seed to have no effect whatsoever.
However, life is unpredictable. The World Setting Technique seed to take the bait. Without a second word, he replied to Igor, "You seem to have a point. Persuading soone with such low comprehension would indeed be a challenge for . This sort of thing actually sounds quite fun."
"From your voice, I can tell you seem like a young fellow too. You're nothing like that storytelling old granny. The old granny is very patient, not flighty like you." Igor deduced this from the World Setting Technique's voice.
"Your judgnt is passable. My existence indeed hasn't been very long. Compared to that other one within you, I am truly very young."
"Then can you explain the question I raised earlier?" Igor returned to his starting point. For him, slowly resolving one question at a ti was the most important thing right now.
If many questions were left piled up and ignored, he might very well end up like Kuren.
Igor did have so judgnt regarding these matters. So, although he had a pile of questions, he hadn't let them all get tangled together into an unsolvable ss like Kuren had.
"I understand your question. You're wondering why soone who was just awakened is acting like an old hand, right? You think a fellow like should behave like an infant, curious about everything in the world, correct?"
This series of questions from the World Setting Technique made Igor nod repeatedly. He was indeed, just as the World Setting Technique suggested, surprised and skeptical about these things.
"I knew you'd be interested in this. Of course, this is also typical of your kind's way of thinking."
"Then what's different between your kind and ours?"
"Don't be anxious. We'll answer the questions one by one. You can't build Ro in a day, and a river can't be filled in a single day either. Since I promised to give you answers, I naturally will. Besides, you have plenty of ti, don't you?"
The World Setting Technique had once again peered into Igor's mind. He knew everything Igor was thinking. Igor, on the other hand, had forgotten this point and was, at this mont, still foolishly thinking this World Setting Technique possessed so miraculous power of Divination.
When Igor realized this, his eyes widened in anger, which amused the World Setting Technique so much that he chuckled incessantly.
"It's not right for you to fool people like this!" Igor was a bit indignant.
"HAHAHA, I'm sorry. I didn't an to, really. It's been so many years, and I finally encountered an Awakened One. I just had to tease you a bit."
"Awakened One?" Igor heard another new term, and a storm raged in his mind.
"It's nothing you would know about. There are probably very few people in this world who know of this matter anymore. But I can't say for sure, because I was slumbering for a very long ti and was only recently awakened by you."
"Er..." Igor grew even more confused.
"Your kind enters the Eternal Tranquility Realm, and after so trials and tribulations, you can never return. This is sothing we envy about you all."
The more Igor listened, the more sothing felt off.
"You must understand, Reincarnation is a tornt for us. But as long as this world exists, we will always be here, either awake or slumbering. Those are our only two states of existence."
The World Setting Technique seed to be describing a colossal secret!
"Your spells are the key to our gates. However, for us to manifest before you, your kind must possess such a level of spiritual comprehension. Those of you who can converse with us, we call 'Awakened Ones.' You are an Awakened One. And I see many different things in you."
Igor remained unmoved. He felt as if he had completely entered another world.
"Stop with this 'your kind' and 'our kind' talk..."
"I know you don't believe it. You think you're in soone else's mind, so this might be an Illusionary Realm, right? I can access your thoughts at any ti, so you are transparent to ."
"But—" Igor still wanted to argue, but the World Setting Technique cut him off again.
"No more 'buts.' Don't you just want to prove you're right? That's simple. Just have the master of these thoughts co and clarify things with you face-to-face. It's not a difficult matter. Oh, I forgot to tell you, the master of these thoughts has already awakened."
Igor was startled. He then quickly looked around, wanting to confirm the World Setting Technique's words with his own eyes.
