Chapter 1148: Emotion
Sylas closed his eyes, the rhythmic beating of his heart becoming all the more powerful. As the energy flooded into him, though, he wasn’t paying attention to the improvement to his foundation, but instead something else...
His Will and the Runes.
This Dungeon was fascinating. It had a read-and-react sort of feel to it that made it like the real world, and yet it felt artificial at the same time. It was like it was trying to mimic the real world but wasn’t quite capable of being one.
However, this "weakness" of the Dungeon was exactly what was so fascinating, because it allowed Sylas to observe something that wasn’t nearly so obvious in the real world...
Just how alive Runes were.
They moved around like they had emotions, as though the Dungeon could truly get angry.
Sylas always thought of Runes as so logical, but when he watched the Runes of this Dungeon toss around like they were throwing a temper tantrum, or spin around one another like they were kids on a playground, or stomp around in a fury as though they had truly been enraged...
He saw another side of them.
It was odd. His two Progenitor Flame Abilities both broke down Runes into their most logical states, and he had already been through the entire Golden Grove Library of information... he had simply never seen such things before.
