Chapter 107: The Essence of Arcane Magic – Mastery of Rules!
“After traveling for so long, it’s good to come back and have a proper rest. I hope you don’t mind, William.”
Apollo leaned back on the sofa, enjoying his tea and desserts, smiling.
“Of course not, Teacher Stevens.”
Although William didn’t expect his first teaching session to be in the form of a tea party, he couldn’t refuse the legendary mage’s gentle attitude.
“You became an Arcanist at the Bronze level, right? And now you’ve advanced to the Silver level.”
“Yes, Teacher.”
William’s strength naturally couldn’t hide from the legendary mage in front of him, so he admitted it straightforwardly.
“Since you’ve already transitioned into an Arcanist, I won’t bother with the basics.”
Apollo nodded and said, “Let’s get straight to it. What do you think Arcane Magic is?”
William pondered for a moment and earnestly stated, “I believe that Arcane Magic is essentially the study and mastery of magical elemental properties, developing special spells based on one’s own traits. The key lies in how to better control the power of magical elements.”
“Hmm, that understanding is already quite good.”
Apollo smiled, then quickly added, “But you haven’t grasped the essence of Arcane Magic.”
“Teacher, the essence of Arcane Magic?”
William looked at Apollo in confusion, awaiting an explanation from the legendary mage.
“The so-called mastery of the power of magical elements is actually the process of mastering the laws of the world.”
“Why do fire elements have the characteristics of heat, ascension, and explosion?”
“Why do water elements have the characteristics of coolness, flow, and change?”
“Why does wind represent agility, while earth represents heaviness?”
“These are all world laws established at the birth of the Gaia World. As the world evolves, more and more laws are constantly precipitating, emerging, and solidifying.”
“It’s because of these world laws that we have the world we live in now.”
As he spoke, with the movement of Apollo’s fingers, various phenomena formed by fire, water, wind, and earth elements appeared around William, constantly demonstrating the characteristics of these elements to him.
“Of course, as the Gaia World continues to develop and progress, new world laws emerge, such as retribution, hunting, slaughter, and other higher-level world laws, which belong to the domains of those deities and divine duties.”
“However, those have nothing to do with us Arcanists. Our goal is to master the world laws represented by the magical elements, these laws are also known as cornerstone laws.”
“Earth, water, fire, wind, the most basic and common types of elements, as well as shadow, light, death, life, space, and so on, are all our targets.”
Apollo gradually revealed to William the greatest and most crucial secrets of being an Arcanist. This is the benefit of inheritance, allowing you to have a clear direction of advancement and not to stray.
“So, Teacher, the exclusive Arcane arts we create are just means and processes for us to explore and master the world laws, rather than the purpose, right?”
“Yes, you’re very clever.” Apollo applauded and smiled.
“Many spells nowadays are just accidental discoveries made by predecessors in exploring the mysteries of elements.”
“You must have created quite a few exclusive Arcane arts as well. How does it feel?”

William remembered his previous insights and frowned, saying, “I feel like I was just fooling around before, being proud of creating a new Arcane art by luck. It was only later that I realized.”
“Yes, that’s also a common mistake for young people like you who advance to become Arcanists early. If you had already advanced to become a Gold Mage, you wouldn’t have made such mistakes.”
Apollo waved his hand, and a plain little fireball appeared in front of him. He pointed to it and said, “Do you notice anything different about this fireball?”
William carefully observed the fireball in front of him, filled with fire elements, intense and dangerous, but that was all.
Seeing William shaking his head, Apollo narrowed his eyes, then condensed another fiery-red sphere and asked, “What about now?”
William looked at the new fireball Apollo had conjured. Clearly, it was manifested from the same fire elements, but it lacked the intense and explosive feeling of fire elements. Instead, it gave him a sensation of coolness and gentleness.
William thought his perception might have been misled and reached out to touch it.
Indeed, there was no difference from his previous perception. Clearly fire elements, yet it gave him a feeling as if facing water elements.
Seeing William’s puzzled expression, Apollo smiled and dispersed the two fire elemental spheres in front of him, then picked up his tea and took a sip.
“Just as I said earlier, we are Arcanists, explorers of elemental laws, masters of cornerstone principles. But what about after ascending to legendary?”
“After mastering the rules, is it about changing the rules?”
Suddenly, a gleam of light flashed in William’s mind, and he replied.
“Yes!”
Apollo looked at William somewhat surprised. He hadn’t expected this kid to have such insight.
“The second fireball I just created was also formed by condensing fire elements, but I modified the laws of fire elements within it, making it behave like water elements.”
“This is the ability possessed by Arcanists after ascending to legendary, or you could say it’s the reward for our exploration and mastery of the cornerstone laws of the world.”
“I can make fire elements more explosive, or gentle as water. Similarly, I can also change the properties of other magical elements.”
“Our ability to change magical elements depends entirely on our mastery of elemental laws.”
“So, do you now know what the ultimate goal of Arcanists is?”
Facing Apollo’s question, William pondered in his heart.
To be honest, the teachings of the legendary mage today completely overturned William’s previous understanding of Arcanists. He felt as if he were standing on a higher level, overlooking the problems he had encountered before.
At this moment, William was very glad that he had chosen to become an Arcanist after his rebirth, forsaking other seemingly more powerful professions.
He never expected to be able to touch such magnificent and grand secrets of the world.
Mastering rules, changing rules!
What inspiring and blood-stirring words!
As for Apollo’s question, William already had his own answer in his heart.
“To create rules!”
“Yes!”
Apollo was truly surprised this time. He hadn’t expected William to come up with this step. When he himself had just transitioned to become an Arcanist, he couldn’t answer his teacher’s question.
This kid, truly worthy of being a genius who completed the transition to become an Arcanist alone, indeed has talent.
“This is the dream of all Arcanists, to create rules of our own.”
“But unfortunately, no one has succeeded so far.”
“You must have also noticed that the fire element I just changed returned to its original state completely after leaving my control.”
Apollo continued to explain to William.
