Ian reviews all the knowledge he has collected about this cosmic magic system.

Grimoire is closely connected to the soul and life force of the magicians. If they die, Grimoire will also disappear.

However, damage to Grimoire does not endanger the lives of mages - the only consequence is that they can no longer use high-level magic.

Grimoire carries the spells of mages and allows them to cast advanced magic beyond the limits of their own talents. At first, the pages of the book are blank, but through training, talent, and the test of life and death, new spells will emerge.

"Grimoire The concept itself is very strange. Everything in this world is strange," Ian said to himself.

First of all, everyone in this world has magic power-except for the protagonist Asta and a Demons named Liebe. The situation of Asta can be explained, but that Demons is a complete mystery.

Ian knows that magic is usually a kind of talent, and it is too abnormal for everyone in the world to have this talent. Although some people have very little magic power and can only cast one or two small spells, this does not change the fact that they have magic power.

The second strange thing is that all people who own Grimoire do not need to deliberately "learn" spells, they can "invent" spells. Based on personal talent, training and strong desire, Grimoire will automatically generate corresponding spells for them.

Ian knows very well that it is difficult to even learn magic, let alone create spells. In the Empire, only those who are truly talented and knowledgeable can do this.

But in this world, even a street vendor can create a spell in Grimoire that suits his taste or profession. And when a gifted magician is in trouble or a life-or-death crisis, Grimoire will even create a spell specifically for them to solve the trouble at hand.

Yami in the anime is a typical example. In Underwater Temple, he was trapped in an independent space. Seeing the team members gradually being defeated and on the verge of death, his Grimoire derived "Dimension Slash", allowing him to cut through the space to escape and save his team.

Grimoire can also respond to the user's character growth or life insights. For example, after Gauche learned to trust others, he developed a spell that can create Mirror Clone for himself and others.

"I can think of two possibilities regarding this phenomenon. First, Grimoire has the same deduction capabilities as Morgana."

However, Ian shook his head after research and found nothing similar. Therefore, although it is possible, the probability is extremely low.

"The second possibility is that all Grimoire are connected to something. This thing either has a library of spells to choose from, or also has deduction capabilities, or both."

"The question is, what is that thing? Where is it? Who is in charge of it? Is Cosmic Will involved?"

Countless thoughts flashed through Ian's mind. As his thinking deepened, he felt more and more that Grimoire was not simple.

In his opinion, the whole situation seemed like someone was using Grimoire to limit the natural development of magicians. Because of their over-reliance on this book, magicians never developed a method of casting spells on their own.

This restriction applies to all races in this universe - including Demons.

In Underworld, Demons can use magic as they please. However, once they enter the physical world, they must rely on Grimoire to exert their full power.

"This world may hide many secrets that have never been shown in comics or animations," Ian thought with interest.

He is full of interest in uncovering these mysteries. In addition, although the Grimoire system has flaws, he can improve it into a system suitable for the less talented Arcanist among the Empire.

With it, they don't have to learn spells the hard way. As long as they have enough willpower, determination and desire, they can learn spells that perfectly suit themselves.

For advanced and talented Arcanist, Grimoire also has many uses.

Many people in the Empire cannot instantly carve out magic circles in the soul plane and can only store the required spells in advance to prepare for emergencies. With Grimoire, they can store spells in books to obtain additional spell slots.

As for those who can cast spells instantly, they can also use Grimoire to gain additional spell slots. If they can only cast five spells instantly, Grimoire may allow them to cast one or two more spells instantly.

Grimoire can also be transformed into Magitech products. In this way, if Arcanist runs out of mana, Grimoire can be used as a backup energy source to support them until they are restored.

It can even be connected to Gate of Truth to assist in Alchemy and material conversion.

Perhaps he could also modify it to work with Chi, developing combat techniques instead of spells.

The possibilities are simply endless.

While conceiving these crazy ideas, Ian also analyzed his own Grimoire.

Most of the spells in it are derived from other magic systems or variations he has mastered. But there are also many brand-new spells that he has never seen or thought about, or Empire are still in the early stages of development.

Based on this book alone, his journey to the universe was not in vain.

However, there are still many spells missing.

To this day, even though he has been a Magic Knight for 10 years, he still cannot use Time Magic.

Of course, this is largely because he did not have too much contact with Julius; in the previous state, he had to always be wary of Demons in the opponent's body.

After analyzing Grimoire, Ian turned his attention to the magic of this world.

The human physiques in this universe are very weird. They don't have any magic circuits in their bodies, but they can use magic easily. Without Magic Core, their bodies can still contain a lot of magic.

According to his previous calculations, the most talented individual in this universe can reach the Fourth Tier level - and this does not include Demons and the elves.

It seems that they view the entire body as a container for magic power, rather than storing magic power in muscles, bones, or specific parts of the body.

"In other words, all people in this world have a unique bloodline that changes the nature of their bodies and allows them to store a large amount of magic power without a core."

Ian became very interested in why everyone in this universe has magic power. He guessed that this secret involved the basic laws of the universe or was some kind of unique [Authority].

He can seize this power and bring it back to his universe. Although he does not expect everyone in the universe to have this physique, the people of the Empire should have it.

By then, even if some people are unfortunate enough to be born with meager magic power, they can still gather their core and start a magical journey. In addition, those who suffer from magic poison will no longer be troubled by this.

As a result, another crazy plan took shape in his mind.

Just as he was deep in thought, there was a knock on the door.

"Come in."

A 15-year-old boy with black hair walked in.

"Yami, what's the matter?"

"Lunet Deputy Leader said there is news about the Magic Emperor."

"Really? I'll be there in a moment. How's your training going?"

"I have completed all the tasks you assigned."

"Very good. I'll test you later."

Yami nodded and closed the door.

"The leader's 'qi' has changed again. Has he found a way to lift the curse?"

This was not the first time that he noticed that the group leader's anger had changed drastically, as if he had changed into a different person. The first time it happened, he thought someone was pretending to be the group leader, and he was shocked. It was not until later that he learned that this was related to the group leader's curse.

"This kid's 'Qi' skill is very interesting, and it is also a great discovery in this world," Ian murmured to himself as he looked at Yami's leaving back.

"Maybe one day, I should go to his hometown 'Land of the Sun' to see the magic system there and see if it is similar to this continent."
