I Gain a God-Tier Talent Every Level

Chapter 568

This ritual that reverses the transformation of magic beasts—it didn’t originally exist in the world."

"According to our current theories, even if someone specialized in researching this area, it would probably take two to three hundred years to discover this ritual."

"This ritual was told to me by Yog."

Yuna and Kanzaki Rei walked across an empty, white expanse of sea. This vast white surface was like burned funeral paper—a pale, ashen gray.

This was the Secret Sea. A place where nothing existed. Even revisiting it, there was nothing left to see.

The place destroyed by Shiro was that thorough.

"Yog..."

Kanzaki Rei chewed on the name.

Yog, in Kanzaki Rei’s view, was indeed a bit too deliberate.

Kanzaki Rei admitted that he had no real connection with it, yet Yog had given him many extremely valuable pieces of intelligence.

If Kanzaki Rei had relied solely on his own power to search, without Yog’s assistance,

Who knew how many years it would have taken to find them.

And even the ritual to restore his parents to their original state—Yog had given him that as well.

"Yuna... what do you really think of Yog?"

Truth be told, this question shouldn’t have been asked.

Yuna was now Yog’s disciple. Asking her opinion of Yog... probably wouldn’t yield any other kind of answer. You couldn’t exactly speak ill of someone right in front of their disciple.

"Yog... mm, how should I put it. I feel like it should be good."

Good.

Such a purely adjective.

"It seems to have only the desire for the pursuit of knowledge. Aside from that, I can’t sense any other desires in it."

"Also, it doesn’t like us to attach any other titles to it."

"Either address it by its full name—Yog of Knowledge and Wisdom—or simply call it by its name, without any other honorifics."

"I think Yog might truly be able to help you."

"But this is just my one-sided opinion. As for how to decide, that’s up to you, Kanzaki Rei. Perhaps I’m the one being deceived as well."

Kanzaki Rei nodded slightly. Yuna couldn’t tell what was going through his mind.

Kanzaki Rei’s mental defenses were too strong. With Yuna’s knowledge, she should have been able to read a person’s emotions directly, to know their thoughts through small movements.

But that method didn’t work on Kanzaki Rei.

"Mm. I’ll keep that in mind."

Kanzaki Rei’s heart relaxed slightly as well. It would be best if Yog wasn’t his enemy.

Existences like the Moon Calendar were truly headache-inducing.

Kanzaki Rei opened a phase passage again. Yuna followed behind him... The next second, they arrived in another empty, vast white space.

"This should be the location you mentioned."

Yuna swept her gaze around and nodded. "Mm... it should be."

"But everything here has been destroyed. Even the characteristics, the traces of existence in time, have been destroyed."

"However... it’s fine."

Yuna raised her hand. A faint fragment of light appeared in her palm.

A fragment of history.

Through this fragment, Kanzaki Rei could see a blue planet reflected within it.

Earth.

"This was granted to me by Yog. The existence of Earth before it was erased."

"This fragment comes from the Room of Answers. It records the projection of Earth’s final moment before its complete destruction."

Yog again...

"Earth was destroyed too thorough. Ordinary methods can no longer retrieve the traces of its existence. Without this fragment, the ritual cannot be activated."

As Yuna spoke, complex patterns gradually bloomed beneath her feet.

A three-dimensional ritual unfolded and sketched itself around Yuna.

In truth, through rehearsal of the future, Kanzaki Rei could see the final complete form of this ritual. But this ritual could only be arranged by a Tier 8 Savant.

Yuna, using known knowledge, projected a Forbidden Ritual.

[Second Forbidden Ritual: Time Reenactment Ritual]

To thorough restore Kanzaki Rei’s parents, who had been transformed into magic beasts, ordinary methods would no longer work.

After all, once Kanzaki Rei’s parents had been completely transformed into magic beasts,

That small amount of spirituality they originally possessed had already scattered. It was equivalent to death. It had returned to the Tree of Wisdom. And after such a long time, that tiny, negligible spirituality had long since been reincarnated somewhere unknown.

But this reincarnation wasn’t truly complete reincarnation.

Because they still lived on as magic beasts. Their spirituality was gone, but their souls remained. They had never entered the cycle of reincarnation.

To restore such existences to their original form,

Was even more difficult than resurrecting a normal person.

But...

Problems like this often had a universal solution.

If you want to restore an existence, the best method is not to piece it back together from scattered parts... but to return it directly to the state before anything ever happened.

And the key to that—

Was time.

"I’m going to begin."

Yuna took a deep breath.

Kanzaki Rei nodded solemnly, his expression extremely serious.

"Begin."

According to the results of his rehearsal, no problems should occur with this ritual.

But Kanzaki Rei’s heart was filled with a slightly uneasy Premonition

Kanzaki Rei took this Premonition very seriously. With his current strength, any Premonition could not be without cause. Added to that his 「Deepest Truth」 talent, it was even less likely to be an illusion.

The next second, the silver-white patterns thorough unfolded!

The dense, complex patterns around Yuna had already been intricate, but in this moment, they spread out like butterfly wings!

Silver. Flowing. One could clearly feel it—time was changing!

Yuna released the fragment in her hand!

The fragment before them gradually expanded, and expanded further, until directly before their eyes, it recreated Earth, along with the abyss surrounding it!

Yuna: "We cannot Revise the past."

Kanzaki Rei released the two slimes that were stuck together.

"So... I will record their current state and return them to their condition at that point in time."

Yuna’s eyes were bloodshot. Forbidden knowledge could not be casually invoked.

Just like Primeval Forbidden Magic—every mage who wanted to use Primeval Forbidden Magic had to pay a tremendous price to do so.

Yuna, helping Yog’s power,

Could project this ritual, but only for an extremely short time.

Yuna aimed her hand at the slimes.

She was about to reverse their time-state, to restore Kanzaki Rei’s parents to their form before they became magic beasts.

But suddenly—

Boom!

A shattering sound exploded. The entire ritual collapsed in an instant!

A girl with ivory-white long hair appeared in the very center of the ritual without any warning, replacing Yuna’s position.

And Yuna—had vanished.

The girl stood only five meters away from Kanzaki Rei, but her accusatory tone locked onto the entire space: "Why do you rash actions time?"

But the next second, she clearly saw Kanzaki Rei’s face. Her eyes raised slightly, showing a hint of surprise.

"Oh? It’s you..."

"I know you."

Kanzaki Rei’s right hand gripped the Emperor’s Sword. His left hand held the scepter wrapped in fine-textured hide. The shadows behind him rippled. Six god death spirits lurked within the darkness.

He had already entered combat readiness.

"What a coincidence. I know you too... Ekhator."
