All My Professions Have Divine-Level Talents

Iz turned to look at Kumironi. "Kumironi, I’m sorry..."

"I have my own path to follow."

"I will help as many people as I possibly can, but when it comes to matters of the Root Source, I will not waver."

"This time, I can only do what is within my power."

Kumironi replied, "Mm..."

"Iz, just be yourself."

Izparut sighed softly. "But that said, I will do everything I can within my power."

"Lu Cang, we may not have much time."

"Come with me."

Lu Cang nodded slightly, looking back at Kumironi.

"Sister Kumironi, I think... there will be more people who need our help in the future."

Perhaps Kumironi, who had always wanted to save more people, was the one who truly understood the struggle and agony of the coming Doomsday.

WHOOSH—

The two of them vanished before Kumironi’s eyes.

Kumironi gazed at the Divine Statue of Sophia, her thoughts unknown.

"Sophia, I feel like I’m becoming more and more lost. How am I... how am I supposed to uphold the principle of life?"

...

「Lorentz Magic Academy」

This was a spacious, brightly-lit laboratory, with Magic Crystals placed in every corner.

Dusk, Jie Zhu, and Feize, the three Root Mages, were also here.

Seeing Lu Cang arrive, everyone stopped what they were doing.

"Lu Cang?"

Jie Zhu said, "You were gone for so long, I thought you’d run for your life."

Lu Cang replied, "Jie Zhu, is that really the impression you have of me...?"

Iz spoke up and began to explain, "I’ve already constructed the prototype for a massive, continent-wide group Teleportation Magic."

"But I feel there’s still a lot of room for improvement."

"It’s just that, as it stands, the time frame for its final completion might be extremely tight..."

As Iz was explaining, Lu Cang picked up a dozen or so sheets of draft paper.

The papers floated in front of him.

Each sheet of paper depicted an intricate Magic Array.

This was Space Magic, after all. With the Root Source being incomplete, constructing Space Magic was far more difficult than ordinary Magic.

Moreover, even if one was constructed, there was a high probability it would be incomplete and unusable.

Even for a magical genius like Iz, who could create a brand new spell on a whim, constructing this one had taken a great deal of effort.

"Iz."

"Actually, while I was away these past few days, I had some special inspiration. I do have some insights on Space Magic."

"The Core of this Array... perhaps it could be modified to use this kind of basic Rune?"

With a light tap of Lu Cang’s finger, the Rune at the center of the Array—originally ten stacked triangles—instantly transformed into a Rune of nine interlocking rings.

"And then, in that other corner over there, we can add another layer to the Array, covering it from top to bottom, with this layer linking to the next."

Lu Cang picked up a blank sheet of paper, and the structure of a Magic Array instantly appeared on it. He then stacked it on top of the other sheet to demonstrate how the two Arrays would be layered.

"What do you think?" Lu Cang asked.

Lu Cang had only just arrived and had merely glanced at the papers before offering his own suggestion.

Jie Zhu, Dusk, and Feize froze on the spot when they heard Lu Cang speak.

’What is this guy suggesting?’

’Didn’t you just get back?’

’You haven’t even warmed your seat yet, and you’re already trying to make suggestions on Izparut’s design?’

No one had any doubt about Iz’s magical attainments.

In fact, the Magic he constructed could already be called perfect, with almost no room for improvement.

Iz had called them here to help.

But in reality, over the past few days, only Dusk—who had comprehended Space Root Magic—had managed to find a single point of improvement.

The several constantly improving versions of the Magic Array had all been created by Iz himself, repeatedly modifying his own original work.

But now Lu Cang had proposed a major change to the Core of the Array after just a single glance?

Although they had to admit that Lu Cang’s own magical attainments were also very high.

But compared to Iz, they still felt there was a huge gulf between the two.

’Putting aside everything else, there had to be a gap between a Level 6 and a Level 4, right?’

Besides, Iz had also awakened four years earlier than Lu Cang.

"Oh? Let me see." Iz walked over to Lu Cang and took the papers from him.

He glanced over the diagrams of the two Magic Arrays.

"Oh..."

"This really is... an absolutely genius modification!"

’Huh?’

’No way. Is it really an effective change?’

’We spent four days looking and couldn’t find a single thing to improve.’

’And he figured it out with just one look? Isn’t his Talent for Magic a little too terrifying?’

Iz murmured, "I never would have thought... to use an Apochel Rune here..."

"If I had to think of this myself, it might have taken me several days."

"After all, I would have had to complete the proof first..."

Jie Zhu, Dusk, and Feize looked at each other, completely dumbfounded.

’Apochel Rune? What’s that?’

’Why have we never heard of it?’

Lu Cang glanced at Iz, who was now lost in deep thought.

’Iz... you guessed right. This is the change you’ll make ten days from now.’

’If I had to look at it myself, I wouldn’t be able to see what needed to be changed either.’

’The magical skills involved were far too advanced.’

’They were completely beyond my current ability to master.’

’But even if you don’t understand the problem, and you don’t understand the process of solving it, you can still copy the answer, right?’

Lu Cang had previewed the future.

He had directly previewed the ultimate form of the "Continental Random Teleportation" Magic.
