Chapter 360 (2/2)

In fact, she was the youngest witch whose enlightenment was recorded in that book. Back then, even all the Three Chiefs praised her, for such enlightenment was very significant in enlightening witches to evolve and in practical research. However, when she said those in a serious manner, Roland was quite calm.

“I see.” The prince nodded. “What is the General Principles?”

“Wait… Aren’t you surprised at all?” Agatha asked surprisedly. “The world is full of gas everywhere. It can be anywhere and without any weight. Actually, the gas can turn into flowing water and frozen ice.”

“They are very normal phenomena, and there are many kinds of gases, each of which has different boiling points and melting points.” Roland shrugged. “Why should I be surprised? These’re common sense in Natural Science Theoretical Foundation.”

“…” Agatha was quite shocked and hurt, and she took two deep breaths and said, “Alright, I’ll read it carefully.”

“The General Principles…”

“It records the feelings and experiences of the High Awakened during their evolution,” she said in discontent, “but the abilities of witches are different from each other, which makes it very difficult for them to evolve by imitation and referencing, so this book is of course uncomparable to your Natural Science Theoretical Foundation!”

“Did I say something wrong?” The prince was quite confused.

“No, I’m too arrogant,” Agatha was unhappier now.

“Well.” He seemed to figure out the reason, so he changed the topic quickly. “You just said that the abilities of the witches are different from each other… so there’s no one sharing the same ability among thousands of witches in the Union?”

“No,” she replied bluntly, “The Quest Society believes that the form of magic power decides the ability, but there are no witches sharing the same form of magic power.”

“But when you first saw Anna, you could instantly tell that it was the ability of fire control.”

“It’s just an informal categorization, which is easy to understand. The abilities of generating light and heat can be categorized into fire control, but with the development of magic power, consolidation after growing up, or High Awakening, similar abilities will change greatly. Even at the initial stage of fire control, some witches are good at controlling the temperature, some generating greater fire, and some throwing the fire. Even if there’re no obvious differences, it’s because of the lack of careful observation,” Agatha said, “The Quest Society’s categorization method was much more formal and basically the same as yours.”

“Also three categories?” Roland asked.

“Four. The main difference is the summoning type—the Quest Society divided it into two categories, Magic Power and Shaping. You can understand the difference from the literal meanings.”

“The former means that the summoning of the ability costs magic power all the time, just like Anna’s. When the magic power is gone, the summoning of the ability will stop. And Shaping can exist for a very long time, just like the Coating drawn by Soroya, right?”

“Although I don’t know the exact ability of Soroya, it’s pretty much like that… That can stay for a long time can be taken as Shaping, such as my ability of freezing at a normal temperature.”

“Understood.” Roland recorded these contents as well. “That’s all for the test today.” Usually, if you receive no assignment from me, you can practice your ability as you wish, but I’m thinking that someone might urgently need your help.”

“Who?”

“Kyle Sichi, the Chief Alchemist of Border Town.”
