Chapter 141 New Acquaintance. (1/2)
There he was, the professor in the flesh The fabled person with extensive runic knowledge that could push his progress to another level The only probleet your tongue? What’s with that expression young man? Did my presence overwhelm you already?”
‘Quite the cocky cat to boot…’
“Ah no, I just didn’t expect you to call me this early or that you would be”
“I would be what?”
Roland scratched his cheek and started wondering if suddenly Bernir would pop up and say that this was all a prank
“A cat…”
He said it while not really knohat this creature before hiical and etting sht have been soence
“You would refer to this Professor as a domesticated pet? Why I never!”
“Ah, you’ll have to excuse my friend Professor Arion, he didn’t mean it”
Soon Lucille interjected from the side as she could clearly see that Roland was in distress
“On the ression but remember well child, I aies”
Roland just replied as he did not want to argue about things like this Still, it looked like he was getting pranked by Lucille The real professor could be so at his confused face but as they continued to talk it didn’t see up
“Well then, Mr Wayland was it? Young Lady Lucille has told nificent Runic shi+eld”
“I see that it has slipped her mouth”
Roland was a bit surprised by the reaction of this cat that was supposed to be the runic expert here This creature clearly wouldn’t be able to runecraft with those cat paws that it had Hoent about using the runes as a Rune Mage was intriguing
“Yes, quite I must say lad, you sure did outdo yourself and while at such a young age If young Lucille hadn’t insisted I would have thought it was done by one of those old drunks”
“As you can see, I am not a dwarf, just an ordinary human”
From the cat’s tone, it see that he was a Rune Mage that was interested in runecrafting ithiine how bad they would cooperate with a talking cat
“How did you e to come to this level of skill? You don’t seem to be that experienced, is it soe of an old Runesmith master that you have unearthed?”
The cat started walking around while trying to figure out how Roland’s runesical crystal ball was on a table and the strutting cat on it was a strange sight to behold The Professor was right with his first assumption but not like Roland would reveal his secrets just like that
“This level of perfection is unprecedented, even though they were only coh the but”
“But? Was there a problem?”
“Oh? You didn’t realize? The Runic Matrix was not as refined as the rest, you seerasp when the outer shell of the runic structures but fail at fully understanding the Runic Matrix”
The Runic Matrix, this was so that he had read about before but just once It was during his change into the Runesmith Lord Class and only there When he reached the library he was given the basic knowledge about that term, which he referred to as the runic software
The Rune Matrix hat made the whole spell structure tick It was the e the runic spells on a higher level than when he only used the outer runic components
Even a basic runic structure could be turned intoof the software There were still limitations to how much a person could do, only when both hardware and software knowledge was combined to its fullest would Roland finally be a true Runese of the Rune Matrix is still lacking I can only produce simple spell effects that had already been created by others with minor alterations”
Roland could look into the runes and copy the code that was inside of this matrix What he usually did was just copy-paste it and see if so stuck This was a strenuous process, without a full understanding of what he was doing he could only go with a grueling process of eliht have truly be a fortuitous encounter indeed”
“How so?”
He asked while the cat with the monocle chuckled to hi e to fully access the Runic Matrix while I require a skilled Runesmith that can create impeccable runic structures with no faults!”
The black cat started laughing maniacally for some reason while Roland pondered what he had said It did see was true If he could get sos of this Runic Matrix hespells
Roland's basic knowledge about how ic worked in this world was quite rudih he soh, what he was doing was just re the acts while not fully understanding theht be able to pass some tests but not apply them to a real-world scenario To actually becoetfor years upon years, even this gole hie when theto disclose information to someone like me?”
“Someone like you?”
“Yes, an unknown country bumpkin”
“Ha ha, I see you have taken ize for ht First, we need to build up soe first and see how it goes from there?”
Roland rubbed his chin a bit as he contemplated Would it be okay to trust this person that wasn’t even human or any of the other humanoid races? His new friend Lucille trusted this cat but she had her head up in the clouds
She did see past Robert’s hard outer exterior to see that he was not a bad person inside though Maybe she was a good judge of character even though she mostly seemed that her head was up in the clouds
“Hoould you envision this exchange of information?”
“Yes, how about I send you so on If you can correct the faults to the outer runic traces I would be grateful”
“Then when I a them, will you disclose some information about the Runic Matrix to me?”
“Yes, you do catch on rather quickly I will accommodate the transfer of sche on the table as if he was quite excited It raised its tail and started walking away fro how this exchange would be happening Instead, Lucille found herself next to the crystal ball with a big smile on her face
“Wait… how do you intend to deliver the schematics?”
“Oh don’t worry about that Mr Wayland, ill just use the acade they will arrive at the location of your coht then…”
He was not sure what these gales Lucille was talking about but if he asked he would probably be teased about being a country bumpkin some more
“Then, I’ll see you later…”
