As a Grand Mage of magic and a sage among Digimon, SageMon naturally possessed the ability to turn the knowledge he had learned into equivalent power.
SageMon could imbue any object bearing written words with this power.
And the object best suited to containing this power was the "encyclopedia" penned by the sage himself, also known as the "Book of Void Records" or the "Book of Akashic Records."
This was also why SageMon took this book wherever he went, and even lived inside it.
Meanwhile, over the long years, SageMon had rarely used offensive magic anymore, turning instead to studying the art of melee combat.
Only combat like this, where every punch struck flesh, could let SageMon experience that long-lost thrill.
Thus, unless circumstances demanded otherwise, SageMon would use melee attacks.
Especially when crushing weaklings, it let SageMon appreciate the beauty of life all the more.
Furthermore, by applying his knowledge across disciplines, SageMon had also attained a sage-level understanding of fighting techniques and weapon mastery.
That was why SageMon used his book as a weapon.
After all, the object-or weapon-SageMon knew best was this very book.
Under the effects of the spell Knowledge Is Power, the words in the Book of the Void each released the power they represented.
Balanced by SageMon, these powers did not cancel one another out. All of them surged toward the lightning magic Mo Yan had unleashed.
Against such power, Mo Yan's lightning magic gained no advantage.
In an instant, the Thunder Domain covering half the training ground was dismantled by this power.
In response, Mo Yan, standing on the other side of the training ground, first transformed into Grand Mage Beast, then flew into the sky.
