Chapter 1364: 1364
"Absence of magic power in this world?" Nightingale had her doubts . "Will the world still be the same as it is? Why do I feel that the two of you are overthinking it?"
"… Indeed . " Anna recovered from her daze . "The effect of a force is easily felt, where the simple addition of an unremarkable component force into a balanced system will definitely induce change to the system, let alone magic power that exists everywhere . If magic power truly appeared out of nowhere, then the world before its existence ought to be completely different . But from your description, our world here sounds really similar to that world, where water flows, snow melts, the sun provides warmth and where mother earth provides life . Aside from magic power, it sounds exactly the same . "
"That is why it is worth revering—I think this is what that line was is referring to . " Roland suppressed the slight chill that ran down his back . "It isn't one of the four fundamental forces, but wields the ability to seamlessly enter the system and bring about a comprehensive change to the world, as though it is above everything else . "
"Is that really possible?" Anna frowned .
"It's just a conjecture . " Roland grabbed his own hand . "And I believe the appearance of magic power did bring about some change, but it might not be what the other party had anticipated . " Roland paused for a moment . "—That is why he called it a price . "
"That sounds rather… terrifying . " Nightingale covered her mouth .
"No, it is instead a good thing . "
"Huh? Why?"
"Our current world is still filled with magic power . This means that even God is powerless to retrieve this price . If that is the case, magic power can continue existing forever," Roland explained earnestly . "And if magic power exists forever, none of you will disappear out of the blue . "
"Ahem—" Nightingale tilted her head . "That sounds reasonable . "
"But we are already in the third month of the Months of Demons, and we have yet to see a new Witch appear . Who should we blame for this?" Anna spoke with a faint smile .
"Well, about that—" He was stumped for words .
"Alright, enough joking . " Anna chuckled . "In light of these inferences, the Battle of Divine Will and upgrades of races came about from the appearance of magic power, and ultimately turned into the present world which we are familiar with?"
"We can assume so based on this logic . Since the legacy shards and Realm of Mind are definitely related to magic power and all the evidences we have excavated, it proves that before we appeared, other civilizations used to exist . " Roland relaxed his tone of speech . "I am currently more worried about two things, the first being the red cavity that is gradually taking shape and annexing a part of the world; the second being the pursuit of liberation as spoken by the Oracle that betrayed God . "
"For the former, are you suspecting that it is affecting our planet?"
He nodded . "If we can only fly up there and take a look… a pity that it is still too difficult with Neverwinter's current technological advancements . As for Lan's liberation, it is definitely related to stopping the Battle of Divine Will . But as to what it signifies, I am afraid that we can only find out after entering the Bottomless Land . "
…
Roland originally believed that a gargantuan organization like the Martialist Association would take an extremely long time to go through the necessary procedures, even after achieving a preliminary consensus, and might not even have finalized a set of statutes even after two weeks . Instead of waiting for the higher-ups to produce concrete results, why not raise a few requests himself? For example, focusing on providing Scroll with technological information, as well as carrying out specialized training for Saint Miran, Dido, and the other Taqulia witches .
However, reality went far beyond his expectations .
