Chapter 593

Even though it wasnt too late by the time Ben got home, he still found Thera asleep when he arrived, no doubt still tired from trying to raise that one skill, along with her more personal practice shed done throughout the day.

It didnt seem like she had any intention of waking up either so he did his best not to disturb her, and with it looking like Sonya was going to be spending the night with his teacher, he prepared himself a simpler meal than he normally would before turning in early for the night and forcing his mind up to his gods realm, where the other three were already waiting.ReAd latest chapters at n0v(e)lbin.co/m Only

Good evening my lovelies, He greeted them positively. Whos up for a fun evening of everyone's favourite? Thats right, were talking about research!

You are way too enthusiastic about this, Myriad said with a shake.

I havent touched the summoning spell or the mystery one in ages at this point, I need to get back to it. Tomorrow I should head over to the center too and see if Kufno has anything new for me. At the very least, they should have gotten through some of the brute forcing theyve been trying to do, but for now, without further ado

He brought up both the summoning spell as well as the mystery one from the archive and looked the two over briefly before sighing in contentment.

Oh yeah, just the break I needed.

Only a maniac would consider that a break, His god muttered as Ben examined one of the spell structures hed just brought forth, eyeing it for just a second before separating out two seemingly random sections from the summoning one and tossing them to the side so he could stare at what remained, leaving the gods with him to wonder what he was doing.

Ben? What was that about? Helori asked, looking at the banished segments in an attempt to understand the thought process behind the act.

Hmm? Whats what about? He asked in return, still focusing on the majority of it he had left.

The part you just threw away?

Oh, that? Theres just no point in wasting time on solved segments, is there? Better to focus on the bits we still need to figure out.

Im sorry, what the hell do you mean, solved segments?

The section for opening up a reality and the one for protecting anyone traveling through the chaos. Come on guys, focus here.

It was what he wanted to do at least as he directed his eyes at the massive amount that remained, but after a few moments of silence where the three gods quietly looked between themselves, Myriad was the one who spoke up.

Ben, focus on me for a minute and explain. How could you possibly be so sure of that?

What do you mean, I-

How do I know that?

The second hed seen it in front of him he took it to be a solved problem, one that wasnt even worth thinking about when there was still more to discover, but he had no reason to feel so certain of that fact. So why was it so self-evident to him even then as he looked back at the two segments, trying to understand his deeper thought processes, only for echoes to light up in his head.

Id suppose if its acting on your mind in a different way from your skill then it might not have done the job, Nare mused. But theres really no way to know for sure. More importantly, now that youve been doing this for a while, how are you feeling Ben?

Ugh, sick, sore, mentally exhausted in a way that usually takes months of constant work. Also mildly worried about the fact that I only ever gain more changes to my mind. Seriously, Im beginning to think it might be just me dealing with this sort of stuff.

It is just you, Myriad told him in no uncertain terms. Literally, not a joke, one hundred percent just you. Who else do you think would possibly have to deal with this much nonsense?

I really feel like at least a couple of the other summoned should be having to deal with a certain level of bullshit too.

Nobody else on the planet has to deal with a few thousand minds in their heads, let alone has looked into the chaos between realities.

Hey now, thats not exactly right and theres an idea. What about the gods whove actually gone out there? Surely they must have some experience with this, right?

Well one, as youve already mentioned, a part of the spell is there specifically to protect them, and two, which is important so listen close, theres a huge difference between the mind of a mortal and a god!

Like, is there really though?

Maybe not for you, Helori muttered, even as Myriad went on.

A big enough one that Id still fully expect your brain to be fried in any attempt to connect to one.

Okay, but I dont think with my brain, I use my big, juicy soul.

And yet my statement still stands.

But seeing as thats not an avenue, Nare cut in. It would be best to pursue another. Ben, go see Verbum tomorrow and no matter how long it takes, read through every bit of system information that comes up when he looks at that blessing. Should it take you hours or even days of reading, so be it. Its become apparent this is something you need proper answers for.

Alright, alright, fine, but seeing as how thats a morning problem, for the time being

He gestured broadly as the summoning spell, with his god looking at him in disbelief.

You can not be serious right now.

Hey, even if my minds going to break or Im going to go insane, this is officially an avenue of progress, a huge one, and with nothing else to do until morning we might as well keep chipping away at this.

Until youre sick again.

Ill eat a big breakfast to make up for it. Besides, whatever answers I get, its not like I can just stop working on this forever.

They wanted to answer that he very much could, the problem was that he wouldnt but all three knew that wouldnt sway him, so with nothing else to deter them they went on in their study, even if all were left significantly more worried in the process.
