This energy poured into Amber Egg along the palm of Morien.

Rennala seemed to feel something. He suddenly lowered his head, his expression moved slightly, and he looked at Amber Egg in his arms in disbelief.

At that moment, she seemed to feel the breath of life.

Although she has been constantly creating lives, those lives always give her a feeling that something is missing.

Only this time is different.

Seeing this scene, the surrounding magic particles belonging to Ranni quietly dispersed.

"I took a copy of Great Rune from him, and as a trade, I gave him life." Morien said softly.

There is no death in the golden age, so you can Birth again.

Great Rune of Morien happens to be the one that controls Birth in the entire law.

Let those who have no chance to Birth Birth again.

Sellen stood beside Morien, watching silently without speaking.

Rennala hugged Amber tightly, and tears flowed out of her eyes unconsciously.

Although she was autistic, she could still feel the sudden heartbeat of the child in her arms.

Morien stood up slowly and looked at the short-lived androids around him.

These artificial humans crawled slowly on the ground, raising their heads and looking at Morien.

Snap.

He snapped his fingers lightly.

Pale golden light particles flew out from his body and fell into the artificial people's eyebrows.

These people have already spent more than half of their lifespan and have no chance of surviving.

However, when they Birth again next time, they can become complete people.

They will die tonight and will Birth tomorrow morning.

Start with a real baby.

"In this way, the deal is concluded." Morien said with a smile.

Although it is a forced buying and selling.

"It's really Miracles, apprentice." Sellen commented.

"Uh-huh." Morien responded with a smile.

He also thinks he is powerful.

He looked back and found that Thops had walked under a bookshelf of Grand Library, picked up a book, and started reading it carefully.

There were several artificial humans crawling around at his feet, looking up at him curiously.

Looking back, Morien saw the invisible hand of Magician holding up Rennala.

Selian led Queen Full Moon to the corner of the library, found a chair there, and put her on it.

"From now on, the position in the center of the library will belong to me." Sellen said.

Morien Of course you know what that means.

But he didn't say anything.

"Apprentice, will you stop me?" Sellen said softly.

She said Mage's Sphere.

"No, of course I won't." Morien shook his head.

"I knew it." Sellen chuckled.

After Glintstone Sorcerer reaches a certain height, if you continue to study Magic in depth, it will become a magic Mage's Sphere due to crystallization.

Many people view it as death.

And, in the Magic system, this is considered taboo.

However, Sellen thinks that Morien probably won't have any reaction to this.

After all, he is a "Royal Insect", and Sellen knows this.

For insects, forming cocoons is very common.

Therefore, in Morien's view, the so-called "magic Mage's Sphere" is just a way to pursue a more powerful Magic.

However, over the past thousands of years, less than five people have been able to "break out of the cocoon" alive after becoming demons Mage's Sphere.

Sellen is worried that Morien might stop him because of another reason.

Because the magic Mage's Sphere's Birth requires not only the life of one Magician, but at least three very powerful Magician, and in the end, even if someone does survive, only one can survive.

Even if you can't find the powerful Magician, then you will need more lives of the mediocre Magician. As long as you are willing to kill ten or a hundred, there is no upper limit at all.

This is why this Magic is listed as taboo.

If it is just suicide, no matter how low the success rate is, Magician Academy will not bother to take care of it.

If you want to commit suicide, commit suicide and find a place where no one is around to die by yourself.

But if you want to cannibalize other people's lives, then forget it.

"That is your freedom, and I will not stop it." Morien said, "However, with your strength, it may be a bit difficult to find two Magician who are equal to your strength."

Sellen smiled and did not answer.

Morien once chatted with her about the locations of Magician Lusat and Azur.

I believe the two great Magician would also be willing to help her trace her origins.

Morien continued to look at Sellen and found that Sellen placed Rennala under a statue.

It was a tall statue, nearly 10 meters high, carving a man with his hands open in a cross pose.

This is Radagon, the husband of Queen Rennala, Full Moon.

Since being abandoned by her husband, she has been sitting in the middle of Grand Library every day, sitting where the sculpture can be seen, holding the Amber Egg, in a daze.

Then, Morien's eyes slowly moved down, and he saw a golden thing glowing between the two points of the statue and where Rennala was originally sitting.

It looked like a bonfire.

This golden light was quite conspicuous in Morien's eyes, but neither Sellen nor Thops glanced at it, as if they couldn't see it at all.

This is Grace. Even among Tarnished, only a few can see Grace.

Morien can see them often, but he is used to seeing them in the game, so he often ignores them habitually.

This time, looking at this Grace, Morien, Spirituality was suddenly touched.

"Huh?"

He raised his eyebrows, followed Spirituality's guidance, stepped forward, walked over, squatted down in front of Grace, and leaned over to take a closer look.

As he focused his attention little by little, he seemed to see through Grace and saw a hall.

"Oh?"

Is this Roundtable Hold?

Morien blinked.

Roundtable Hold does not exist in the present world and can only be reached through Grace. It is a place that can only be reached by Tarnished who has seen Grace at least once.

Theoretically, Morien should not be able to see Grace, let alone Roundtable Hold.

But he has Eyes of Mystery Prying, which allows him to see things he shouldn't.

Thops, who was looking for a book behind the bookshelf, glanced over and saw Morien staring blankly at an open space, but he didn't bother him.

He heard that Tarnished can always see things that people can't see.

Maybe this is the current situation.

Morien, who was squatting in front of Grace, stretched out his hand and lightly touched the golden light.

In a daze, Morien felt that there was some kind of connection between himself and Grace.

The next moment, Grace quickly enlarged in front of his eyes.

Morien slowly stood up and found that Grace in front of him had become more than one meter tall.

No, that's not right.

It's not that Grace has become taller, it's that Grace is already this high.

However, the Grace in front of me is not the same one I saw not long ago.

"Wow." Morien sighed carelessly and looked around.

It looks like a noble castle in the Middle Ages, but it's a little dilapidated and looks like it hasn't been taken care of for a long time.

In front of him is a round table, with some rusty weapons stuck in the center of the long table. Surrounded by these weapons is a one-meter-high golden beam, similar to the golden light of Grace, but even larger.

There are paintings, chandeliers, and a fireplace in the corner next to it.

There are three roads in front of him, one leads to a hall, and there are two corners, I don't know where they lead.

The sound of table tennis and table tennis was heard from the right corner of the forked road not far away.

The temperature of the environment has risen a lot. Because the fireplace not far away was lit, the whole room is now a bit stuffy.

He went straight to Roundtable Hold.

"I haven't seen you before, are you new here?" someone sitting at one of the round tables asked.

It was a man wearing full body armor.

"Yes, I am." Morien smiled and nodded, pulling up a chair not far from the man and sitting down in a very familiar manner, "My name is Morien."

Listening to the voice directly ringing in his head, the man paused and continued as if he felt nothing, "You can call me D. I am hunting Those Who Live in Death and removing Deathroot."

"Do you know what this is?" he asked.

"Hmm," Morien continued to nod, "I know."

"That's good," D continued, "Don't get close to Those Who Live in Death."

"Especially when 'The Ship' shows up."

"You probably don't want to die in vain."

Judging from his tone, it seemed like he was trying to make a joke, but his voice and the clothes he was wearing were really inappropriate.

It made his joke sound like a threat.

"Those Who Live in Death----" Morien thought for a while, shook his head and said, "It's okay, I don't think these things can cause much harm to me."

"But I really have no interest in these corpses."

"So I won't take the initiative to approach them."

"That's good." D nodded in agreement.

"Oh, this is your first time here, right? Welcome to Roundtable Hold." Another man leaning against the wall greeted Morien.

This was a man wearing a yellow robe, with his eyes covered with cloth, so Morien had no reaction when he first entered the hall. After listening to the conversation between Morien and D, he realized that this was a newcomer.

"I am Corhyn, a priest." He introduced himself, "I am responsible for teaching how to Incantation, teaching Two Fingers the power given to us, and at the same time exploring Golden Order."

"When among the people gathered in Roundtable Hold, and someone becomes Elden Lord, I will also help from the side to restore the law correctly and put the king's governance on the right track."

He turned to face Morien and asked.

"If this is your first time here, you should still be able to see Grace, right?"

"Yes, yes." Morien replied with a smile.

Corhyn was obviously happy.

"It's great. There are so many Tarnisheds recently and Graces can no longer be seen----"

"Then, do you want to learn Master Two Fingers's Incantation?" he asked.

A super friendly NPC showed up and gave me a skill book upon meeting him.

"Can a person like me who doesn't believe in Golden Order also learn from Incantation?" Morien is more curious about this. "Of course," Corhyn nodded seriously, "You just haven't understood the greatness of Golden Order."

Morien chuckled twice, "Then you are really well-educated."

"It's a pity that I probably won't believe in anyone."

The expression on Corhyn's face remained unchanged.

"It's not important." He said. "I just hope Golden Order is with you."

Morien smiled again.

"Then since you are so well-educated, can a bug learn your Incantation?"

As he spoke, he turned his hand over and a golden Butterfly appeared in his palm.

"Of course," Corhyn answered quickly, "Even the son of evil omen can serve Golden Order as long as he is sincere."

"Are you no longer an educated person?" Butterfly in Morien's hand flapped its wings and floated slowly, "A few hundred years ago, you would have been called a heretic for saying this."

Corhyn's head raised slightly.

"If Golden Order can be repaired, I will do it even if I become a heretic."

Corhyn is indeed a devout believer.

In order to repair Elden Ring, he was even willing to discuss heretical laws with heretics.

After a pause in his voice, he suddenly spoke again.

"I felt it just now, was it----Great Rune?" He asked with a somewhat uncertain tone.

"Can you feel this?" Morien raised his eyebrows, "Yes, it's Great Rune."

This guy is pretty good----

D, who was sitting in front of the round table, raised his head and looked at Morien.

"Oh!" Corhyn's tone became more excited, "Can I ask which Great Rune it is?"

"It's the one that symbolizes Birth". Morien replied.

"Oh----" Corhyn raised his hand to cover his chest, "Mr. Morien, please let me teach you Incantation----"

Morien pointed at Butterfly, which was flapping its wings.

"Why don't you teach it first?" he said, "This is my child."

"That's it----" Corhyn nodded, "I can indeed feel that it has sufficient qualifications."

He raised his hand and let Butterfly fall on his palm.

"I'll teach it."

"Then I'll trouble you." Morien smiled and nodded.

Then, he turned to look at D. who had been looking at him since just now.

"Anything else?" he asked.

"It seems that my previous view of you was a bit biased." D said seriously, "Now I really believe that you have the ability to kill Those Who Live in Death and remove Deathroot."

"It turns out you never believed it before----"

"I have seen a lot of arrogant people. I'm glad you are not this type of person." D replied.

The conversation changed and he asked, "Are you interested in the power of beasts?"

"If you are willing to hunt Those Who Live in Death and remove Deathroot, I can recommend you to "Beast Priest" Gurranq."

"You can learn from him Bestial Incantations."

"I have other plans, and Gurranq probably also wants to find a helper. What do you think?"

"Hmm----" Morien thought for a while, "I think this Bestial Incantations should have no limit and only humans can learn it, right?

"Of course," D replied, "Gurranq himself is not human."

"What about bugs?" Morien asked, "Bugs whose intelligence is not weaker than that of humans."

D looked at Morien and was silent for a few seconds.

He also saw what happened just now.

If it's that kind of bug----

"As long as he can learn it, I don't think Gurranq will refuse."

"Okay." Morien said with a smile, "Then please recommend it to me."

He never restricted what children could learn.

As long as they are willing, it doesn't matter what they want to learn, even if they believe in certain gods.

For example, when he was at Honkai: Star Rail World before, he encouraged the children to learn Beauty from Argenti.

However, although he mentioned this to the children, the children were still rigidly willing to only believe in him.

"Very good, do you have a map? Let me mark his location for you." D asked, "Um--no."

"No? Okay."

D took out a map from his pocket.

"Use that portal to meet Beast Priest "Gurranq." I've marked it on this map. There is a hidden portal at the marked place."

He sent the map to Morien.

"Okay, thank you." Morien nodded and accepted.

At this time, Morien heard slightly hasty footsteps.

From the room behind the blacksmith shop, a girl shrouded in black robe walked out.

Her body is hidden under a hooded black robe. She has long golden hair and beautiful facial features.

When she saw Morien, there was something Desire in her eyes.

But she suppressed Desire and bowed to Morien seriously.

"Good afternoon, the hero who owns "Birth" Runes----"

"My name is Fia."

"It seems I don't need to introduce myself." Morien nodded.

"Yes." Fia lowered his head.

"It's our first time meeting you. I have a heartfelt invitation."

"Hero, it only takes a moment. Can you let me hold you tight?"

She raised her head and looked at Morien. Facing this person she met for the first time, Fia raised her hands and opened her arms.

Through the gaps in the clothes, it seems that the skin under the black robe can be seen.

Uh uh uh----

"Since you know this is an unkind request, it's better not to ask." Morien raised his hand in front of him and shook his head in rejection.

"I am already the father of many children."

Morien still had a smile on his face, but Fia could see his disgust in it.

Yes, very disgusted.

Just looking at her, Morien felt that his Eyes of Mystery Prying was about to develop syphilis.

In Morien's eyes, Fia's body, especially the lower abdomen, contains more than five digits of life force from different men.

Hearing Morien's rejection, Fia lowered his head in disappointment and put down his hand.

"Sorry, I overstepped."

"Would you disdain this kind of behavior?"

Morien was speechless for a moment.

"Do you want to hear the truth?" he asked.

Fia also fell silent.

After a few seconds, she replied.

"No, no need." Fia shook his head, "I understand."

She has heard similar comments too many times.

Death Sleep Girl Fia, she can absorb the vitality and strength of heroes through some indescribable behavior. After possessing enough energy, she can then do indescribable things with the corpse of the dead to conceive their child, and to a certain extent, resurrect the dead.

Morien responded with a polite smile.

But if you think about it carefully, with my sowing personality, I'm probably not much more "promiscuous" than Fia.

Just when Morien was about to leave, she suddenly spoke.

"What do you think of Golden Order----"

"I don't believe in Erdtree." Morien replied, "I don't think this tree is worth believing in either. It's better to believe in it than to believe in me."

Corhyn stood motionless in the corner, pretending not to hear anything.

He is a devout believer, but that does not mean that he will force others to believe in Erdtree.

Fia's eyes lit up after hearing this.

"That----"

Morien raised his hand to interrupt Fia.

"The so-called Those Who Live in Death, I don't care. Whether they are Monster who need to be hunted or dead who need to be pitied, I don't care."

"As long as they don't bother me and my children."
