Chapter 428 Magic Exploration
"Indeed," Roland nodded, "Lucia. White comes from a merchant family in Golden穗城. She already has a certain foundation in writing and arithmetic, and she has a good understanding of natural theory courses, which is why she achieved such results."
"I'm not questioning what you said about 'deepening the understanding and cognition of the world can promote ability evolution'," Tilly pouted, "But what does this have to do with magic backlash?"
"Based on the observation of Lily, Leaf, Mystery Moon, and others, ability evolution also has the effect of increasing the body's capacity for magic. I think this effect is also greatly related to the degree of understanding of the world," Roland combined Agatha's "Ancient High-Level Awakening" and the differences in the "ability evolution" of the witches in town, and explained his conjecture in detail, "They are essentially the same thing, but the effect of partial or isolated epiphany, its magic enhancement is far less than comprehensive, the overall world cognition - Mystery Moon is a very good example, although she is a member of the Witch Union, but through epiphany to complete the evolution, her magic level is far less than Anna and Soroya."
Tilly pondered for a while and quickly understood Roland's meaning, "Are you saying that Lucia xiaojie has been at a low magic level before, whether in peacetime or on Awakening Day, the body is adapted to this magic intensity. And this time when she came of age, it happened to trigger the evolution at the same time, which caused the magic in her body to suddenly increase several times, making it far exceed the extent that her body could accept?"
"Roughly so, but I tend to think that these two are not the same," Roland counted his fingers, "For magic, the key points of improvement are Awakening Day, Coming-of-age Day, and Evolution. It seems that the effect is the same, but I think the first two are bèipo growth, while the latter is an active improvement."
"Why do you say that?"
"Because magic backlash symptoms do not occur during ability evolution," the prince said slowly, "If there is no difference between the two, the rapid increase in magic when Anna evolved would only kill her. I assume that there is a warning line for the amount of magic that a witch's body can tolerate, and if it exceeds this limit, the body will feel the pain of backlash. And daily training can gradually increase its upper limit, the purpose of emptying magic before awakening is also for this."
"Warning line? Interesting saying..." Tilly pondered, "Do you think that the magic increased during Lucia xiaojie's evolution was too much, resulting in insufficient magic space reserved for the forced influx into the body on Awakening Day, which ultimately exceeded the limit, causing this accident?"
"That's right. Although Anna, like Lucia, also had her first evolution when she came of age, her previous magic reserves were already very alarming, and her backlash warning line was much higher than that of ordinary witches." Roland paused, "In addition, this can also explain why Lucia returned to normal after Sperl drew away the manic magic - those magic did not belong to her."
"Your view... can explain many problems," she tucked her hair behind her ears and supported her chin, thinking, "Why is magic of the same origin, but shows different forms in the witch's body; why can only the magic wandering outside be seen when the witch is awakened - because they only become part of themselves after being accepted by the witch."
Roland smiled, "Awakening can be seen as attracting magic to come, but ultimately only a small part can be left, while evolution is to expand and enhance this small part of itself, the more extensive the degree of cognition, the better the enhancement effect. As for the fact that there is no xiànzhi on the number of evolutions, it is also reasonable – how can there be an end to exploring the world."
"I'm suddenly a little curious."
"What?"
"If you were a witch, how vast would the magic reach after evolution?" Tilly covered her mouth and smiled.
Roland almost choked on his saliva. Although he really wanted to experience the wonders of extraordinary abilities, he would rather decline to pay such a high price.
"Can I take a copy of these textbooks you wrote back to Sleeping Island?" She raised her eyebrows.
Although her tone sounded very casual, Roland noticed that her right hand gently pinched her skirt.
"Of course
No problem," he would definitely not choose the wrong answer to this most basic point-scoring question, and in general, the more decisive the answer, the better, "It would be good news for Border Town if it can help the witches of Sleeping Island evolve. What's more, you are still my sister."
Then he felt his left shoulder being pinched hard by Nightingale.
"......" Tilly did not respond to the second half of the sentence, but nodded slightly, "Thank you, then I'll take my leave."
"Okay."
It seemed that his performance was still too flamboyant. She might not be interested in this kind of closeness without a credible explanation.
But to Roland's surprise, Tilly stopped at the door, turned around, and said softly, "Sometimes, I wish you weren't my brother."
……
After Tilly left, Roland still sat blankly at his desk, her last sentence filling his mind.
I wish you weren't my brother, what does that mean?
"Hey, are you dumb?" Nightingale appeared and waved her fingers in front of him.
"What do you think she was trying to say with that sentence just now?"
"How would I know," Nightingale shrugged, "Maybe she thinks you're more suitable as an ally than as a relative?"
Roland naturally wouldn't speculate in the wrong direction. After spending half a winter together, he already knew this royal woman's temperament very well.
Could it be that what she wanted to express was that she actually didn't want the Fourth Prince to come back? Or was it simply a counter-effect caused by him trying to build a relationship?
"You're not her brother anyway, why care so much," Nightingale turned over and sat on the table, lifted her long legs, took out a piece of dried fish and stuffed it into her mouth, "Besides, when you said that sentence, you didn't even need to use your ability to see that you were lying."
Uh, is that so... Roland touched his nose, so it seems that the answer should be the latter?
"Also, since Tilly is not a biological sister, is it okay to give her 《Natural What What Principles》?"
"That's called 《Basic Theories of Natural Science》," the prince sighed, "It's been several months in winter, do you think she can't copy a copy down? I bet she already knows the contents by heart, even so, she still formally made this request to me, which is enough to see the other party's attitude."
At least from the perspective of political friendship, Tilly was impeccably sincere.
He paused for a moment, and then said, "And Sleeping Island is mainly composed of witches, even if they all evolve, they still rely on the power of witches; but I am different, this knowledge can not only make witches progress, but also make the people progress... I rely on the power of all the people."
