The First Legendary Beast Master - Chapter 1161: Why Only Karl?

Chapter 1161: Why Only Karl?

Azov examined the odd pair. They were well suited to each other, and their energies resonated on very similar wavelengths.

But only Karl was showing the sort of improved mental and soul power that would be expected of the Power Matrix. Had neither of them thought to ask Dana to start on it yet? Sure, she was only an Overlord, but she would be a Totem soon enough, and it was never too soon to start preparing for the Mythic Rank.

“Karl, I see that you’ve improved your Power Matrix to the twenty-seven pointed focus. But Miss Dana hasn’t started yet. Was there a reason for the delay?” He asked.

“That’s not a class exclusive ability?” Karl asked.

Azov facepalmed in dismay.

“No, not at all. All mage type classes need to do it to reach Mythic Rank. The stronger the Power Matrix, the faster their mana and soul power will grow. In theory, most species can make it to Mythic Rank if they can perfect the nine focus formation. Some won’t live long enough at that rate, though.

But, there is no restriction on what classes can use it, only on the mental fortitude and mana levels needed to start.

Oh, right. You’re from Kabtumia Continent, the Golden Dragon Nation, right? They probably still think it’s only Monks who can use it, since they start with the skill.” He realized.

Karl nodded reluctantly. Indeed, he had thought it was an exclusive thing, and that Mages had their own ways.

“That is fine, we can fix that right away. Your personal matrix isn’t suitable for her, anyhow. You used… what is that?” Azov replied.

“Supreme Lady Matilda. I used her as the template for my Matrix. The instructions said that I should use a greater being whose form I could clearly focus upon to shape the matrix, and she’s the most powerful being I have ever personally encountered.” Karl explained.

Matilda smirked at her ancient companion. “See, you were all worried that he wouldn’t be able to comprehend Chaos, and here he is using it to shape his entire Power Matrix. It’s actually not a bad likeness.”

“How did you even get to see her Dragon form?” Azov asked.

“She showed me once, but mostly I just asked Cara. The two of them mentally chat quite frequently, and the badger has a vivid imagination.” Karl explained.

Azov flicked his finger, casting a spell over Karl.

“Your Fundamental Rule focus is Mana Manipulation, excellent choice for Immortality. But I see that you have an affinity for Fire, Holy Magic, and Chaos? Hmm. To even touch on the truth of Chaos is unusual. But it does explain how you can comprehend her form well enough to use it as a focus.

I will put an image into Miss Dana’s mind, along with the fundamentals of the skill to improve her Power Matrix.

I see that her mind is better attuned to the God of Magic, and that is a Power Matrix that I know well, so I will grant that knowledge. It should help keep the two of you balanced after your wedding.” He explained.

Dana’s expression went blank as Azov cast a spell, and Karl watch curiously.

“So, you have a skill similar to mine? That teaches skills to others?” He asked.

Azov shook his head. “No, what I have is memory transfer. It just shows them my memories of a thing. In this case, lectures and the textbook on how to implement the process.”

Matilda nodded. “He literally wrote the book on how to use the Power Matrix to reach Immortality. The actual textbook that the Dragon Isles use.”

Dana smiled as she slowly began to comprehend what Azov was teaching her.

“That is brilliant, absolutely brilliant. I understand so much better now.” She gasped.

Azov nodded. “Now, you just need to grasp one of the Fundamental Rules in a way that truly suits you, and you will be on your way to Mythic status and Immortality.”

“That sounds like it is easier said than done. I see it in your notes, and I understand the concept, I just don’t really get the rules themselves, if that makes sense.” Dana agreed.

Azov’s gentle smile said that was inevitable.

“If the truth of the universe was so easily imparted, we would all be immortals.

Though, if the two of you spent a bit of time in the Immortal Realm, you might grasp them more quickly. I would not recommend that at this point, the Immortal Realm is not a safe place, and those not Immortals are not considered people there.” He explained.

Karl frowned. “Is that why they don’t come here to assist with the issues in this world?”

Azov shook his head. “No, the Immortals who live here, and the Supreme Lady, cast a spell to hide this world so that they didn’t come to raid the world for slaves. Otherwise, the issues that this world has would be the least of its current concerns.”

“Well, that’s not disturbing at all. Is the power disparity of the Immortals really that large?” Karl asked.

Matilda shrugged. “Well, the actual Immortal Ranked residents aren’t considered much of anything, either. Especially if they’re older. The ones with power in the Immortal Realm are the Legends and Demigods. Few reach that level, even fewer of them die. So, they’ve all carved out their own kingdoms in the Immortal Realm.

Once you get there, you will understand.

The Immortal Realm isn’t a single planet like this is. Instead, the more powerful beings create worlds, continents, or even just cities, floating in the void.

Once you become an Immortal, sustaining yourself off your internal mana isn’t a problem, so moving in the void becomes possible.

You already know the basic skill of survival in the Immortal Realm, the ability to make a Tiny World. Just expand that by a hundred, with fully formed Rules, and you will be close to what the lesser domains in the Immortal Realm are like.”

The dragon paused, then smiled. “You know, it might do you good to visit, just to learn the feeling of truly powerful mana. I will tell you when you’re ready.”
