"Adventures... well, I certainly have had those!"
Merlin did not answer at first, remaining silent for a moment before speaking.
An Yang was slightly taken aback, instantly growing interested, yet somewhat surprised by how direct Merlin was. After all, in his impression, mystics were not merely mysterious before mortals; they guarded their secrets just as fiercely among their own kind. Merlin's readiness to share his secret gave him a sense of being deeply trusted.
Seeing the surprise on his face, Merlin smiled and said, "Back when I was still a Tier 1 Spellcaster, I found a copper piece in my hometown. That copper piece came from at least the ancient era a million years ago! You know, even though that time was still far from the peak of our mystical civilization, there is no need to elaborate on the preciousness of a copper piece from such a distant age, right?"
"Yes, it sounds very precious." An Yang narrowed his eyes. "What else? Does this copper piece possess any miraculous traits? Or does it record something?"
Having asked such an overstepping question, he was practically prepared for Merlin to refuse to answer, but unexpectedly, Merlin merely shook his head and said calmly, "It does possess miraculous traits, and you could say it records things, but I think what is even more important is that there is a spirit residing inside it."
"A spirit?" An Yang was very startled.
"Yes. At first, I thought it was the will of the copper piece's former user, but later I learned that the spirit actually belonged to the copper piece itself. You could say it completely witnessed the growth of the copper piece's user, and it also vaguely witnessed the ups and downs and vicissitudes of the mystical civilization over the past million years.
