Ian looked at the soul in his hand and sighed softly. When he was in a state of amnesia, he seemed to have some kind of obsession with Acier.
Even though I have recovered my memory now, this obsession has not dissipated.
At first, he thought it was Cosmic Will who was causing trouble, but that was not the case.
This slight obsession exists because Acier is so much like someone he knows: his ex-girlfriend from Origin Earth.
Not just her appearance, but also her smile, personality, and the way she gets along with others.
It's all strikingly similar.
They broke up long before he died in his previous life, and he thought he had let go.
Over the years, he has been looking forward and accepting a new life in the new world.
But obviously, that was not the case. Three hundred years later, that shadow re-entered his life in this way.
After finding the problematic Source, Ian thought of the many problems that may arise after Resurrection Acier.
The main problem involved her husband Henry. Ian knew very well that although it was difficult, he could have saved Henry at that time, but he did not do so.
And Acier knows, or at least suspects this.
For the time being, this is not a problem.
However, once he completes his plan in this universe and brings her back to the Empire, she will one day have the ability to Resurrection Henry.
By then, his situation will be as embarrassing as Snape, and Ian doesn't think he can be as generous as he was in handling Lily's matter.
The only reason he legalized polygamy in the Empire was to encourage procreation and satisfy his own selfish desires.
He knows this very well and has never denied it. Therefore, his machismo will never allow his wife to have an affair with other men.
Although this is unfair, that's what he thinks.
Ian looked at the soul in his hand and murmured to himself, "Maybe after making a break, I should let go."
As a successful playboy, he never takes rejection to heart.
He understands that no matter how handsome, rich, or successful a person is, no matter how good a chatter or flirter is, there will always be people who find you unattractive and reject you for various reasons.
When faced with rejection, you must move on as nonchalantly as you would a mosquito bite.
After pondering for a moment, he put away his soul and decided to make a decision later.
Subsequently, he sealed Megicula and removed Netherworld Tree, returning Heart Kingdom.
As for the chaos caused by Underworld due to the disappearance of a superior Demons, he doesn't care at all.
"What happened?" Lolopechka asked.
"I sealed her," Ian replied, and then took out a golden rose, which instantly absorbed the dark aura from Lolopechka.
She lifted her clothes without hesitation and saw that the curse mark on her abdomen had disappeared.
"Gone. I... I don't have to die," she said, tears welling up in her eyes.
Undine on the side was equally excited and hugged her tightly. After the two people calmed down, Ian said, "I'm leaving."
"So fast?"
"Yes, I still have a lot to do."
Undine paused and said with a smile, "I want you to be careful, but I doubt that anyone in this world can pose a real threat to you."
"I still want to thank you for your concern," Ian replied, then opened the portal and left.
His destination is Elves's hidden village--Elysion.
He was waiting for Guardians, Dryad of this village outside the tree.
Soon, a tall woman with pointed ears and a floral dress appeared in front of him.
After sizing him up, she smiled.
"I knew a guest was coming, but I didn't foresee who it would be. I didn't expect the famous Magic Emperor to come to my humble abode. Please come in, I've prepared a feast of fruits and vegetables."
Ian smiled at this over-enthusiastic tree elf with Prophecy talent.
'She will be a great asset to the Empire,' he thought as he followed her into the tree.
Ian did not go to meet other elves, but went directly to Dryad's residence and had dinner there.
"So, why are you here this time?"
"First of all, I'm here to exchange technology."
"Oh, are you interested in our 'Ultimate Magic'? Yes, you are probably the only human with enough magic power to use it without Word Magic Formula. I agree to the exchange."
Ian is glad that things are going so smoothly; he prefers to deal with someone as cheerful as her.
"The second reason I came is about 'Elysium'."
Hearing this word, Dryad frowned slightly, but Ian continued, "The name of your village is very similar to the legendary residence of God 'Elysium'. I want to know if you know any news about that place."
"Unfortunately, you will be disappointed."
"How to say?"
"I was born after the Elves great Carnage. Their desire for a home and a safe place gave birth to me as Guardians, and this place. As for the name, it just popped into my head and I went with it."
Ian was a little disappointed that no more information could be collected.
But it doesn't matter, because he already knows how to reach the so-called Elysium.
He just wanted to collect some information in advance.
So, after chatting with Dryad for several hours, he left.
Ultimate Magic is a method that allows the mage to connect with his own soul to increase the control and resonance of magic power.
In this way, they can develop their own, extremely powerful and unique magic.
Essentially, this is a technique to improve magic control, which is very beneficial to the Empire.
However, for Ian, this is just the tip of the iceberg.
So far, only "Word Magic Formula" is really useful for him, as this not only allows him to reproduce Arcane Rune Magic, but also optimizes it.
As for "True Magic", it also has its advantages.
True Magic allows the mage to transform magic into the true power of nature.
For example, a wizard who uses lightning attack magic will still have elemental attributes converted from magic power.
That's why Anti-Magic can neutralize it.
However, True Lightning Magic converts magic power into real thunder and lightning that exists in nature, so Anti-Magic is ineffective against it.
In a world where magic has an upper limit, the power of nature indeed surpasses ordinary mages in strength.
But in a world where people can destroy galaxies with a single spell, True Magic, although powerful, has its limitations.
Furthermore, True Magic is limited by the elements present in nature such as earth, wind, fire, water, thunder and plants.
After leaving Heart Kingdom, Ian went to a strong demon zone.
While Morgana used her ability to transform the rune array of this world into Arcane Rune Spell, he began to arrange barriers around it.
He created an isolation barrier to prevent others from entering by mistake, although the abundant violent magic power around him made this area unviable.
Then, he deployed an invisible barrier within a radius of several kilometers, and another barrier that absorbed the magic power of the surrounding environment as an energy source.
Finally, he recreated the magic circle used to summon Megicula from Underworld, and used World Tree Magic to create Netherworld Tree.
However, he did not use Dark Magic to connect to Underworld, but used Light Magic as the source to find another space: Elysium.
After waiting for several hours, Ian found a Subspace full of positive energy or positive magic.
That's like the opposite of Underworld.
"Hit it," he muttered to himself, then stepped through the door and entered that dimension.
