Chapter 672: Spectating: Mrs. Caster vs. Moon Lady (II)
--
Grasping the power of laws could be considered a minor reality alteration ability in itself. Laws are the forces of nature, after all, and wielding their power means deciding how they work.
’Reality Alteration’ is a broad topic. It’s a rabbit hole of existentialism and a lot of space-time shenanigans, topics that are way too complicated for common folk to understand, much less influence.
Amongst the many variations of concept laws there are, Runic Laws was one of the very few that could truly touch upon the concept of altering reality and is one of the most encompassing ways to truly manipulate it according to the wielder’s desires.
However, as much as it was tempting to gain the power to alter reality itself, it is very difficult to do so. Understanding the concept of ’reality’ on its own was already hard, especially considering how illusive it was. Adding the deep and extensively profound studies of runes on top of that? Now it sounds even more impossible to do.
Besides, personal strength is still the basis of everything. Anybody who was strong enough could just negate any attempts of reality-altering skills. That’s why many people think that it’s a waste of time.
But of course, not everybody could truly understand how deep this concept truly goes. How can they when they’re not even qualified to have a look at it?
Cedric could speak from personal experience. After all, he does understand this concept too. He just doesn’t use it very often because it is too demanding with origin energy and his comprehension isn’t deep enough.
Still, knowing that Mrs. Caster was a rune specialist was a pleasant surprise. Her reality-altering trick was just a small part of her skills; her main strength lies in weaving runes like a natural phenomenon. And since Cedric was familiar with the concept himself, he knows just how deeply profound and complicated it was; that’s why he admires her for using it this well.
The fight continues, and this time, it was Mrs. Caster’s turn to attack.
Two out of the ten great law diagrams that hovered around her rose to the skies. They stacked on top of each other and grew in size, so much so that they covered the majority of the skies above the battlefield.
A foreboding sense of crisis was felt by everybody once they saw that. Yes, even the spectators themselves felt the threat, but they’re not really in danger. The one who was in danger was Mrs. Caster’s opponent.
