Fake Professor, Misunderstood As Strong - Chapter 123

Chapter 123: Theories and plans…
Jareth flipped through the book and found that the book also had location and details written on it about all seven nodes of the seal of ‘False Dome’.

As long as you protect these seven nodes from being destroyed, you can keep the Seal of ‘False Dome’ intact.

The seal is actually so big that it covers the whole solar system, and all of its nodes are located on their planet.

Only by using these seven nodes can someone open the seal.

‘In other words, the motive of that ‘False Dome cult’ must be that they want to open these seals…’

Once the seal is open, the demon god can enter the solar system, and immense miasma will also flow inside with him.

The destruction caused by such an event will make the whole solar system vanish into nothingness.

‘Miasma and mana are invisible to the eyes of ordinary people and their equipment like telescopes, etc., which is likely the reason why scientists in this world have never discovered anything strange.’

They see the galaxies and stars just like normal and can observe them without any problem.

However, only grade 1 mages are able to see the reality of it all.

Of course, if they can make telescopes or observation equipment that can sense the presence of the ‘Laws’ of the world, they can also see it all.

But the current human race is far from creating such an advanced technology.

They have barely even started using mana stones as vehicle fuel and for other things.

It will take centuries for them to reach a level where they can create spaceships that can leave this solar system.

…

Jareth read through the whole book and then put it aside to read another book in the library.

Aside from this one book that was explaining about the reality of this world, there are many other hidden secrets in all these books.

Some are records of when and who Nathan lent a favor to, and some are records of where Nathan hid his treasures.

Also, there are a lot of books on half-completed theories and spells that Nathan got from a lot of wizards and was researching in his free time.

One of them was the original Jareth’s own theory book that he had written and given to the principal to get into the university without any problems.

‘The original Jareth signed a mana contract that he would give this theory to Nathan in return for getting a job as a professor at the university…’

‘But the current me isn’t a professor anymore; I am the vice principal of the university, which means the contract has become null by natural circumstances…’

Mana contracts are indeed powerful, but they also have limits.

All mana contracts have a time limit or a natural null condition.

The most common way to end a mana contract without any backlash is if both parties agree to the nullification.

The more uncommon way is to wait for the contract to become null naturally.

Just like all creatures age, contracts age too; a contract loses power slowly but surely. For example, a contract made between two grade 1 mages can last for three hundred years.

It all depends on the conditions and circumstances.

But there is one more way: contracts become null if one of the two parties that have been contracting dies with or without the interference of the other.

In other words, you can just kill the other party and make the contract null.

But if the contract states that you aren’t supposed to kill the other party, then you can suffer backlash if you go ahead and kill them.

Mana is a mysterious and amazing thing; anything can happen in this world full of supernatural things.

Jareth’s case is the same.

He has been promoted from the professor job and has now become a vice principal, which means he technically isn’t a professor anymore, and that nullifies the contract made with Nathan.

This is a perfect example of a contract becoming null due to natural reasons.

For example, if Jareth had left the job or had gotten expelled, then again, the contract would have become null because of natural reasons.

The contract only stated that he would get the job; it didn’t state that he would not be expelled or promoted.

‘This means I can take my theory back home now as the contract has become null…’

Jareth stretched out his hand and put the theory book with the design of a purple flame inscribed on it into his space ring.

The original Jareth gave this theory to Nathan, as he didn’t have powerful enough mana control to complete his own theory, but now things are different.

‘I have mana singularity, and I can continue the original Jareth’s legacy… Moreover, if his theory succeeds, I can create mana-powered nukes that can help me fight against the possible siege of the demons…’

If Jareth didn’t know the reality of this world, he wouldn’t have cared about this theory at all, as he would have no reason or motivation to create a catastrophic weapon of war.

A perfect mana nuke will cause no radiation, and it will be extremely effective against all living beings.

Its main attacking power would not be just extreme heat; it would cause the mana itself to become chaotic, killing the organisms from the inside out by making the mana in their body go crazy.

Keep in mind that mana deviation is one of the most threatening things that a mage can face in his life.

Even grade 1 mages will be affected by mana deviation.

Normal people who barely have any mana in their body and have no mana control will directly burst into blood mist at the very first contact with the mana waves produced by this type of bomb.

Simply speaking, this type of weapon will be so destructive that it can destroy the whole human race in one go.

‘To think the original Jareth was researching a weapon that wipes the whole human race from the face of Earth… this guy really had a big ambition…’

If the original Jareth had ‘Mana Singularity’, it is guaranteed that he would have definitely been successful in creating this weapon, and the very first test subject would have been the whole of Artavia and its neighboring cities.

Jareth would have been a villain that would have killed millions of people, and he would have been a great menace to the human race; even the protagonist would have had a hard time facing him in the game.

‘The developers really did the original Jareth dirty… He had so much potential and such a good backstory, yet his end was so miserable…’

‘This is what we call a waste of potential…’

Jareth shook his head and stopped thinking about it.

‘Forget it; I will complete his theory myself… There’s no such thing as being too strong; if I can add more power to my arsenal, then why don’t I do it…’

‘Weakness will get me nowhere… This world is f*cked up already anyway; it won’t matter if I create a weapon of mass destruction now…’

Thinking this far, Jareth made a mental note of what equipment and items he might need for it all.

Now that he has found out about the fate of this world and how everything is on stake, Jareth has started to feel a great sense of urgency.

If he doesn’t increase his own power, he won’t survive long.

‘I must find a way to exterminate the whole ‘False Dome Cult’; if they are gone, I will get more time to prepare as the seal of False Dome will remain intact for longer…’

‘I need time; the more, the better…. Also, I need to look for those seven nodes; I need to observe them and figure out how much more time I have left before they break…’

The nodes have been standing there for thousands of years, and they have likely been corrupted by the dense miasma for a very long time now.

Which means they have limited time left before they break on their own.

‘Sigh, even if I somehow repair those nodes and make the seal strong again, it will still not benefit me much… If I die, my soul will be the one suffering from it all…’

‘I must deal with all the chaos while I am still alive, and well… only then can things become normal…’

While thinking all this through, Jareth continued to search through all of the books in the library, and he found hundreds of powerful spells and theories that could be of help in the future.

‘Only a few of the spells are of the fire type; most of them are related to other elements… I guess I can give them to Mark and Risa, and as for these space-type spells…’

‘I will need to find ‘that’ guy… the future martial king… That guy is likely still wandering in the desert of chaotic thunder… With his help, things will be more easy…’

With new goals and motivations in his mind, Jareth finally decided to prepare powerful allies to overcome the fate of this world.
