Chapter 2366 - Dont Mind (2) (1/2)
The atmosphere began to change rapidly.
Sometimes the pressure would drop. At other times, it would be so high that it felt that the sky was falling down upon them.
A streak of blood leaked from Dyon's corner lip, but his face remained expressionless, it was as though he couldn't tell what was happening.
In that moment, a familiar illusory white flame burned around his body. Numerous golden runes whipped around him ridiculous speeds.
Alauna could tell what they were immediately. These were the fundamental runes that created the foundation of arrays. Each was capable of tapping into a fundamental law of the world. Grasping these fundamental laws would theoretically allow one to create an array capable of performing any task.
One could liken them to the base ten number 0 to 9. With those ten variables alone, one could build any number in existence. By manipulating these numbers into variables and formulas, one could extrapolate toward the forces that controlled everything… gravity… electromagnetism… strong force… weak force… the unknown, undefined forces that have yet to be labeled…
However, despite knowing this, Alauna's heart trembled fiercely because these fundamental runes… She had never seen them before!
There was only one possible explanation for this. These runes weren't from her and her father's realm… The truth was that Dyon had used three days to rip these fundamental constants from the jaws of this world's laws!
'… Do you really have no limits?' Alauna thought bitterly.
To understand how shocking this was, one only need to look back toward the analogy drawn to the number 0 to 9. Only one thing needed to be said: these numbers had to be invented.
It's hard to wrap one's head around, but the number '0' didn't always exist. It's concept itself had to be created by the minds of the past. In fact, its creation could be noted as maybe one of the greatest discoveries in all of human history.
As difficult as it was to grasp the answer to something like this, imagine how much more difficult it would be to create a concept of 0 without ever having had one before.
This was exactly what Dyon had just done. Even more shocking, he hadn't just grasped this world's '0', he grasped its 1 to 9 as well!
Alauna thought back to the words her father had said just 3 days ago.
”I want you to see what it means to disdain everything.” …
The fundamental runes Dyon wrested away from this world continuously tried to break free, crumbling under his control only to be forcefully solidified once more. Again and again, the process repeated in a violent exchange, riddling Dyon's body with injuries. Yet, he remained completely expressionless.
