Chapter 45
The End of Dharma, A Bet With Morgan

From magician to True Ancestor.

This wasn't just Shirakawa's wild imagination.

In fact, there were already similar examples in the Type-Moon world.

Not to mention, the Second Magician, the renowned Demon King Marshal, the Gemstone 翁.

He was the Third True Ancestor himself.

It was because he became a True Ancestor that Gemstone 翁 was able to have almost infinite vitality.

He was able to remain active from the distant Age of Gods.

Right up until modern times.

Therefore, Shirakawa's idea, theoretically, had no problems whatsoever.

The power of a magician and the power of a True Ancestor were not conflicting.

They could coexist.

Plus, Shirakawa himself had the gift of omniscience and omnipotence.

In this case.

It would be problematic if Shirakawa didn't pursue the dual upper limits of Magician + True Ancestor.

However, to truly take this step.

Shirakawa still needed to do some preparation.

For the sake of safety.

..

"The so-called Root, essentially, is the foundation and core of this world."

"It is the foundation of all things, the source of all laws, the ultimate truth itself."

"Mastering the Root means mastering all the laws of this world."

"In ancient times, the Root wasn't as hidden as it is now. Back then, some geniuses could easily communicate with the Root, even receive gifts from the Root."

"This is why ancient magic was far stronger than modern magic."

"Because magic back then was closer to the Root."

"It's just that as the Age of Gods arrived, the Root gradually began to hide, and magicians could no longer easily touch it."

"And since the end of the Age of Gods, the Root has become even more elusive and almost untouchable."

"Only a very few geniuses can accidentally touch the Root."

"But the difficulty is far higher than before."

"Therefore, to touch the Root, the best method is to find magic from the Age of Gods, or even before the Age of Gods."

"And what I'm going to teach you is precisely this."

"Are you ready?"

The Garlan Hall.

Morgan put on a tailored suit.

She looked like a cold and domineering female president.

She pushed her gold-rimmed glasses and spoke to Shirakawa.

Shirakawa didn't answer immediately.

Instead, he thought about what Morgan said.

From Morgan's words.

You could clearly understand one fact.

That is, the mystical side, has actually been weakening.

It was a bit like the "End of Dharma" in fantasy novels.

The closer you got to modern times, the weaker the mysteries became.

The Root was harder to communicate with.

But without touching the Root.

How could you gain powerful magic?

These were the reasons that led to the current state of the mystical world.

Grand Mage was already the peak.

But you need to know.

In the Age of Gods, or even before the Age of Gods.

Grand Mage was just an entry-level standard.

Not to mention, Grand Mage was already at the point where it needed to be sealed.

It was easy to see how weak the mystical world was now.

It was no wonder Morgan looked down upon such a weak mystical world.

But it was the current mystical world that was weak.

What did it have to do with Shirakawa?

Morgan had witnessed Shirakawa's talent these past few days.

It was truly outrageous, monstrously talented.

Even Morgan.

After witnessing Shirakawa's talent.

Couldn't help but doubt herself.

You can imagine how exaggerated Shirakawa's talent was.

"Morgan-sensei, I understand."

"So let's start our lesson now."

Shirakawa smiled at Morgan.

Hearing Shirakawa's teasing "Morgan-sensei" address.

Morgan couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Her gaze was cold as ice.

But unfortunately, this level of threat no longer worked on Shirakawa.

Morgan had no choice.

She could only start teaching with a cold face.

.....

As the inheritor of the final mystical Fairy King of Great Britain.

Morgan's magic prowess was unquestionable.

She not only knew the magic of the Age of Gods inside and out.

Even some powerful magic from before the Age of Gods.

Morgan had dabbled in them.

And Shirakawa was lacking precisely this.

For Shirakawa.

He had practically researched all of the current magic.

The only thing he lacked research on.

Was the magic from the Age of Gods, and those from before the Age of Gods.

And this wasn't something Shirakawa could make up for.

After all, if you don't even have it, how can you research it?

This was the main reason Shirakawa summoned Morgan.

Shirakawa didn't have this, but Morgan did.

And in the face of Shirakawa's request.

Morgan thought for a moment and didn't refuse.

Firstly, Shirakawa was her Master. It was difficult for her to refuse her Master's normal requests.

Secondly, Morgan herself wanted to see.

What kind of monster Shirakawa would ultimately evolve into.

Simply put, she wanted to see the fun.

After all, Morgan wasn't from this era.

Even if she did raise a monster, it wouldn't be her who would suffer the consequences.

It would be the magicians of this era.

As long as she didn't suffer a loss.

Then of course, the more fun, the better.

.....

It has to be said.

As a teacher, Morgan was quite competent.

She was also very dedicated to teaching.

Even if Shirakawa had many things he couldn't understand for a while.

Morgan would always take the initiative to explain.

She could be said to be quite attentive.

But there was one thing that was bad about Morgan being a teacher.

She was too beautiful.

Sometimes Shirakawa couldn't help but get distracted occasionally.

Like at this moment.

He was supposed to be seriously learning magic.

But when Morgan inadvertently leaned down.

Revealing her perfect collarbone and mysterious cleavage.

Shirakawa always couldn't help but take a few extra glances.

It could only be said, it was truly white.

And of course, Morgan noticed this.

Seeing Shirakawa's gaze, Morgan didn't feel angry.

Rather, it was normal.

If Shirakawa really didn't have any reaction at all.

Then Morgan, might actually be angry.

You must know, Morgan was the Fairy King.

And fairies, are also known as elves.

They are beautiful beings beyond humans.

As the king among fairies.

Morgan was naturally the most beautiful among fairies.

Her charm, in a way, was equivalent to a Noble Phantasm.

In the face of this level of charm.

Even Shirakawa, sometimes, couldn't help but be affected.
