Chapter 156: Amon's Progress and Ariel's Choice

Amon looked at the two spell books, then at the cup in Old Dicesar's hand.

"Young man, have some coffee before entering the special reading room." With a kind and gentle smile, Old Dicesar spoke in a soft tone.

Amon just thought for a second before nodding and picking up his cup of coffee. As he did so, didn't notice the look of surprise from Old Hazael, Elder William, and the rest. He simply drank and opened his eyes wide in surprise.

After drinking his coffee, he looked at Old Dicesar. "This is..."

"Haha, don't say anything," Old Dicesar laughed and said kindly, "Go to the reading room soon. Don't miss this chance."

"Indeed." Amon took a deep breath and nodded. It was rare to see him lose his composure a little. But it was no wonder; the coffee he just drank had a miraculous effect of leaving the mind in a clear state. The importance of this cup of coffee must have been incalculable, as Amon later noticed the expressions of the people around him.

'The effect is almost as good as when I use the [Boundless Heart Rune]...' Amon muttered in his mind.

Wasting no time, Amon went to the reading room. The location doubled as an isolated sound room. The instant he entered and the door was closed, no sound from outside was heard by him.

In a lower corner was a platform that would hold books. Amon approached and heard an electronic voice: "Please put the spell book on the table and then choose the reading speed."

Despite the initial surprise, Amon placed the book "Continuous Green Thunder from the Stars". The other book he had he left to the side on a bench. Amon wasn't arrogant to the point of choosing the highest reading speed, as it would be harder for him to merge with his Genetic Factor, however, he didn't choose the slowest either. It was a little above average speed.

"Countdown from 1 minute to start reading. Get ready."

Amon heard this, and soon he sat on the floor in the lotus position. At the same time, he used the rune: [Boundless Heart]. The better his mind was, the better the result. Although his mind was very clear after drinking the coffee given to him by Old Dicesar, he still hoped the rune would help in some way.

Exactly one minute later, the spell book suddenly opened and the robotic voice from before started reading at superhuman speed. If this was already an unusual reading speed, Amon thought briefly that he had chosen wisely not to choose the highest speed.

As he listened to the words that were read, Amon felt as if an unknown force began to enter his body. Visually, it would be as if he were downloading a file and installing it at the same time: the slightest mistake could cause him to fail and he would have to start all over again. Amon could feel the changes taking place in his body as time passed. Thanks to the rune and the coffee he drank, it was getting pretty easy for him to merge the spell with his Genetic Factor.

Around him, Amon's aura manifested itself, pure and majestic. The rich genetic power welled up in Amon's body. It was as if everything around him was sucked into him, thus creating the powers of the stars. Amon was initially a little curious about how he was going to get energy from the stars, as the spell said it used energy from the stars. Now that he felt this 'pick up' energy from the stars around him, he understood that there was already energy from the stars in the air, although he didn't know how much. However, considering that he was currently in the alliance library, which is located in the tower, it might not have been difficult for someone to have condensed energy from the stars in this location.

Thinking like that, Amon was grateful that there was such a room in the alliance library and that they made it available for him to use. Maybe if things weren't the way they were here, he wouldn't have even been able to merge the spell with his Genetic Factor. Putting those thoughts aside, Amon continued to concentrate, not daring to miss a single word spoken as he mixed the spell with his Genetic Factor.

Ariel finished choosing her spells. She even laughed a little loudly after finding a certain spell, scaring whoever was on her back. The reason she was laughing was because of the spell she had found:

_ _ _

[Little Ai's Mischief] - (3.8 million words).

1. Genetic Disruption Ai: Condens psychic powers to disrupt the genetic energy of enemies.

2. Change Ai: condenses psychic power and causes user to switch places with someone with whom they are close. (Only usable if merged with a Genetic Factor).

3. Genesis Ai: condenses psychic power and invokes an astral body. [Note: The duration time is very short, although it can increase as the user gets stronger. So far, the most anyone had managed was 10 minutes]. (Only usable if merged with a Genetic Factor).

4. Little Ai's Dance: Consumes a large amount of psychic power to create a vortex storm of psychic flames.

5. Little Ai's Smile: While maintaining a playful smile, the user will condense psychic power that has a chance to hypnotize the opponent. (Only usable if merged with a Genetic Factor).

6. Little Ai Spirit: The Ai spirit is released to the extreme and can be connected to the user's mind. Every time they go through a desperate situation, the anger and pain of the embers made will cause their blood to boil and they will go into a Berserk state, increasing their strength by 200%, but losing some of their reason. [Warning: Chances of attacking one's own allies are very high. Use wisely]. (Only usable if merged with a Genetic Factor).

7. Little Ai's Heart: Approach Little Ai and mingle with her. Increase resistance to psychic techniques of various psychic attributes. [Warning: Extremely difficult to learn and merge with a Genetic Factor. The chances of failing and being left without a merger are very high]. (Only available if merged with a Genetic Factor).

Of the spells she encountered, this was clearly the most difficult and with the most warnings. It was clear as day that it might not be a good choice, however, Ariel didn't want to accept that lying down. She wanted to risk it and thought that if she wasn't arrogant at least at a moment like this, she wouldn't become as special as she wished to be.
