The Moon Thief

Chapter 76: The Two High Concepts

While Heinald was observing each side of the garden with admiration, he saw a man coming towards them from the opposite side. Despite his youthful appearance, it was very difficult to comment on this man's age; he looked as if he was both young and slightly old. His light brown hair was partially wavy and reached his shoulders. His eyes were as black as a bottomless pit.

This man had as broad shoulders and tall stature as Heinald. The waves of energy emanating from him made it clear that he was not far from being a Level 2 Ainsar. Like Osmond, he wore a long black robe.

"Greetings Senior Galer." Osmond walked slowly in front of the man and greeted him.

The man nodded to Osmond, who was standing in front of him, and glanced at Heinald, and said, "Looks like you're here with a guest this time."

"Yes, this is Heinald. He is in charge of extracting the essence of the Sundown Lotuses, and he is Grandmaster Albin's new apprentice."

Osmond briefly introduced Heinald.

A confused expression appeared on the man's face for a second, but he quickly reverted to his former self. "Nice to meet you, I'm Galer. I'm a senior apprentice to Pastor Aesos."

"I am also pleased to meet you." Heinald gave a light nod.

"Senior Galer, we had a little misfortune while traveling through the woods." Osmond paused for a moment, then continued, "We've been attacked by the Toothclaw Wolves."

"Toothclaw Wolves? How many were they?" Wales' brows furrowed slightly.

"Their total was twenty-two." Heinald replied.

Osmond effort and said, "I' probably be dead if it wasn't for Heinald on my side. He killed half the wolves as if they were drinking afternoon tea."

Galer turned to Heinald and asked, "Do you care about getting powerful on the path of Ainsar?

Heinald nodded and said, "Yes, although I am into Herbalism and Potion Brewing, my first priority is to become a strong Ainsar.

"If you don't get it wrong, could you briefly tell me about your combat experience and a few spells you know?" Galer scratched his chin for a while and continued, "Actually, I'm looking for someone with experience in combat for my team. Me and my team have been planning an expedition to a location in the new area our temple has discovered for a while. I can tell you the details if you're interested."

"I'm sorry but I have to be at my master's service so I don't think I can join you. But I'd still like to hear the details, maybe I'll consider joining you if I get the opportunity.

When Galer realized that the conversation was going to get long, he took Heinald to the side of the garden. It was obvious that this area was unnatural because the first thing that caught the eye was a large house, although not as much as the houses in the city, it was built underground after all.

Galer poured Heinald a hard drink first thing when they entered the house. They sat facing each other in the large living room of the house.

"How do I begin Some time ago, our temple sent an expedition to a newly discovered area, and I was part of that team. I found a map and a note in one of the ancient ruins in that area; the person who wrote the note stated that a passage was discovered and an Azarb Serpent lived below this passage. According to the map, this pass is very close to us, hidden in one of the plains on the south side of Saylam City."

Galer began to explain the details to Heinald.

"Azarb Serpent? I've never heard of" Heinald's eyebrows arched slightly.

"Yes, it is quite powerful and dangerous, but in return all the parts of its body are incredibly valuable. It is said that especially its meat, when eaten, greatly strengthens the muscles and bones."

"What? Are you sure about that?" Heinald asked excitedly.

Galer nodded and said, "The same thing is written in both books I found about the Azarb Serpent."

Heinald had to find a way to increase his physical strength as well as his spiritual power. If his body's strength was insufficient against his spiritual power, he would never become a Level 2 Ainsar, worse still, his body would even become completely useless under pressure after a while.

After thinking for a while, Heinald asked, "And do you know the certain power level of this snake?"

"Unfortunately not, but it is said that an Azarb Serpent can reach a maximum of a Level 2 Ainsar power." Galer paused for a moment and added, "If you want, I can give you two books with information about the Serpent of Azarb."

Heinald said, "Just tell me the important points I need to know, I will do my own research on the Azarb Serpent anyway."

After talking with Galer for a while, Heinald remembered his main purpose of coming here and set to work. He collected 40 Genyort Lotuses from the garden and after cleansing them of the toxins with his Spirit Flame, he was able to successfully obtain 10 g of essence. Nothing went wrong as he could now use his Spirit Flame in a very controlled manner and observe at a very high level thanks to his eyes.

After Heinald finished his work in Sundown Gardens, he returned to the temple with Osmond and Galer. On their return journey, in the forest, they were not attacked by any kind of attack. As a matter of fact, the rest of the way passed peacefully.

When they entered the temple, Father Aesos was busy assigning duties to the servants in the temple.

"Sir, as you requested, I was able to obtain 10 g of Genyort Lotus Extract." When Heinald came near Pastor Aesos, he handed him the vial containing Genyort Lotus Essence.

"Fantastic!" Pastor Aesos paused for a moment and soured his face, "I hope not too much Genyort Lotus was wasted?"

Heinald said, "No, like you said, 40 Genyort Lotus was comfortably enough."

"So they weren't wasted at all! I really admire your talent." Pastor Aesos put on a satisfied expression.

Heinald had successfully completed the task given to him, so he did not want to linger in the temple any longer. Before leaving the temple, he told Galer that he would inform his decision soon.

Although he knew almost nothing about the Azarb Serpent , he knew from Galer's words that this serpent was quite dangerous. Even if he joined his team to hunt the serpent, it was out of the question for him to go there without preparation, and there was no way he could escape the responsibilities that Grandmaster Albin would put on him.

If he could get permission from his master and gather enough information about the Azarb Serpent, he would join Galer's team. However, of course, Heinald would no longer be able to join the team if he could find someone suitable for the Galer team in the course of time.

When he left the temple and reached the Redsand Mansion, he decided to go to his master first. He was busy making some plans in his mind as he walked through the long and magnificent corridors of the mansion. He had a lot of experiments to deal with and a lot of books to read.

When he arrived in front of Albin Redsand's room, one of the priests waiting in front of the door went to inform him. A short time later, the priest came out and informed Heinald that he could come in.

Albin was observing a few leaves on his desk when Heinald entered.

When Albin saw his new apprentice enter, he smiled slightly and asked, "Have you completed your task?"

"I did, master." Heinald nodded.

Albin glanced from the leaves in front of him and took a book from his desk drawer. "This book will give you important information about 'Higher Concepts'. I will lend you the book for three days, after which you will participate in an experiment with me."

"Understood, master."

After Heinald took the book, he left Albin and immediately went to his room and excitedly began to read the book his master had given him. This book was much more valuable than the books in the library of the mansion. These and similar books were in Albin Redsand's personal collection and no one else had access to these books.

He actually read the rather thick book completely in minutes. A single glance was enough for him to memorize every word in any book. As the information in the book poured into his mind, he understood better why this book was a 'valuable' book. While the other books he read included magic and theoretical information in various branches, this book gave very deep information.

In the book, important information was given about the Concept of Space and the Concept of Light. according to what is written in the book; concepts are confused with 'laws' by many Ainsars, but there is actually a clear difference between them. Laws are often focused on a single object; For example, the Law of Fire is only about gaining understanding based on the element of fire. However, in order to gain understanding in the Concept of Light or the Concept of Space, it is necessary to accept at the level of mind and spirit that everything that exists is actually a part of these two concepts. These two high concepts actually encompassed everything.
