One-Eyed Monster

The Wizard Robe System was indeed implemented across the entire Yowein Continent, with wizards using wizard robes as symbols, and to some extent, this system has been effective.

This system has matured, and the wizard teams are indeed moving towards becoming more elite.

The results determine everything, and this outcome has directly put Lord Soron at a disadvantage.

Moreover, Igor’s reasoning has not yet been fully listed.

”I’ll lay out all my assumptions first, then you can take your time to refute them, don’t rush. We’re all just discussing,” Igor said casually, as it was not he who was anxious. He could freely express himself.

”Alright.” Even though the Spirit Book was somewhat displeased, at this moment, it clearly couldn’t keep up with Igor’s pace and could only slowly accept his suggestion.

To be honest, in this world where results determine success or failure, most people are not accustomed to looking at the process; even if someone’s process of success is harsh, people won’t care too much and will gradually become blinded by the outcome.

What kind of process the Wizard Robe System went through, nobody knows. Everyone only sees the astonishing outcomes...

The Spirit Book gradually searched for records related to wizard robes. For it, this was a bit difficult, as Soron’s records on wizard robes were very few and far between.

It had to dig deep to find a little bit, then slowly piece it together using fragments of Spirit Power, assembling them into a complete picture.

No matter what, for the sake of Lord Soron’s reputation, the Spirit Book was working very hard.

Igor chuckled, as this situation was not what he wished to see. It initially started as a discussion about Biggs’ wizard robe, but it unexpectedly developed into an argument about the entire Wizard Robe System, leaving the Great Witch Biggs neglected on one side. This made him a bit ashamed, as it was meant to solve the problems for the Great Witch, yet now it turned into his own debate...and this left him with mixed feelings.

In the end, it would go back to the essence of the matter, Igor thought, comforting himself.

Now, I still need to deal with this Spirit Book. No, no, maybe it’s the Spirit Book that’s dealing with me. Who knows, in any case, this debate needs to end soon.

”Well, I’m going to list the second reasoning assumption now. Of course, this reasoning might not be so strong,” Igor reminded.

The Spirit Book did not respond, seemingly busy with its own affairs.

”The second point is fairly simple. It’s based on a fact, a fact that you mentioned.”

The Spirit Book remained silent, but others became interested in Igor’s reasoning because the first reasoning point made by him was logical and quite good, so the wizards were curious about what the second point would be.

”According to what you said, Lord Soron has considerable accomplishments in various professional fields, right? This fact is undeniable, right?” Igor’s manner of presentation was distinctive, first gaining agreement, then gradually leading others into his argument, where they would be left unable to move.

Typically, those debating with him would affirm with ”yes” or ”that’s correct,” and Igor would wait for such a confirmation before unfolding another layer of his argument.

However, this time Igor didn’t wait for the Spirit Book’s response and directly began his explanation: ”My point is that human energy is limited; you cannot fully immerse yourself in two or three matters. I think everyone has this experience.”

Indeed, any of them here had difficulty achieving great accomplishments in two fields.

Yet Lord Soron could attain considerable accomplishments in various fields, which was quite incredible.

”Thus, I speculate, and it’s merely speculation, not meant to disrespect Lord Soron, that if someone has considerable achievements in multiple fields, it indicates that their level is actually relatively average. This kind of averageness would prevent them from falling behind in any field, but it also doesn’t guarantee top-tier performance in each field.”

Igor was rather verbose, intending with this remark to suggest that perhaps Lord Soron’s achievements in the wizard field were not so high, thus leading people to speculate that his wizard robe level might not truly be the Sacred Robe.

This statement was not very sophisticated compared to his previous argument; it was indeed quite poor...

However, the Spirit Book seemed uninterested, as it wasn’t planning to listen. During this time, as it pieced together the picture bit by bit, it understood certain things, realizing that many matters couldn’t be entirely decided by one person.

Every decision has its specific time, and some events from those times influence a person’s decision.

”The truth is actually quite ugly, but to prove Lord Soron’s reputation, I feel it necessary to reveal this concealed matter,” the Spirit Book suddenly interrupted Igor’s words.

This statement was abrupt, difficult for people to understand, and seemed like empty pretense, which gave an unpleasant feeling.

”Hehe, then tell us, I want to listen,” Igor was very delighted. He didn’t care about the truth; seeing the Spirit Book’s serious demeanor made him happy. He wanted to see if the Spirit Book’s seriousness could break through, become a little more reliable.

”First, everyone must admit one fact,” the Spirit Book clearly learned this trick from Igor, first guiding everyone into its own rhythm, ”This fact is simple—the wizard robe actually doesn’t greatly aid spellcasting. Most of the time, the wizard robe is just a symbol, a tool, right?”

”That’s right, the biggest feature of the Wizard Robe System is the survival of the fittest, this system allows many wizards to avoid detours.”

”So, if everyone takes off their wizard robes, it doesn’t affect their strength, right?”

Unexpectedly, the Spirit Book quickly mastered Igor’s approach, completely taking over his manner of speech.

”Yes...yes,” although reluctant to admit it, the wizards had to face the reality that the wizard robe was indeed just a decoration on them.

It’s just that this decoration symbolizes identity.

”The truth might be harsh, are you all still interested? After all, I don’t want to talk about such bygone matters.”

”Go on, go on, facts can harm people? I don’t believe it.”

”Master, you need to be prepared, many things aren’t as beautiful as you imagine.”

”Uh...”

”For instance, what’s being hidden this time is vanity and unscrupulous methods, things that make the process quite uncomfortable.”
