Nanako took a deep breath.
Stay calm!
Stay calm!
Nanako reverently raised her head, clasped her hands together, and said sorrowfully,
"Thank you, Master. Your disciple indeed hopes to receive your assistance. The residents of the small town are cursed by the Secret Source, but your disciple doesn't know any ancient magic, so I'm at a loss..."
Lynn smiled slightly, dignified and elegant, saying,
"You should now understand some knowledge about the Secret Source. This book, take it."
With a graceful wave of his hand,
Before Nanako's eyes, a book emitting a faint glow slowly floated to her side.
Nanako was stunned and reached out to take it.
On it were written four large characters.
【Secret Source Canon (Deluxe Edition)】
Nanako's eyes widened, and she quickly flipped open the canon.
It was densely packed with many incomprehensible words, clearly an ancient and powerful magical tome.
Nanako's face was filled with surprise.
Could this be the canon that records the Secret Source magic?
My disciple is indeed incredibly knowledgeable!
And to hand over such a thick tome directly to me, my disciple truly loves me!
Mwah!
"Master!" Nanako blinked, surprised, "Does this record the knowledge of Secret Source magic? It doesn't seem like much!"
Lynn, in the form of a goddess, shook her head, "No, Nanako, what you're holding is just the table of contents. That's all the knowledge of Secret Source magic."
He pointed to the side.
Nanako looked in that direction with confusion.
Thump thump thump——
Instantly, countless books began to fall like dumplings from a light curtain onto the empty space beside her.
One ton, two tons, three tons.
Soon, the empty space was piled high with countless books, forming a small mountain.
"......"
"......"
A brief silence.
Nanako was stunned, and the table of contents in her hand dropped to the ground.
She walked over in a daze, trembling, and gently pulled out a thinner book from the middle.
Rustle rustle——
The mountain of books instantly collapsed, burying Nanako underneath.
(ΩДΩ)!!!
Too many!
There are too many of them!!
After struggling to climb out of the sea of books, Nanako said in a daze,
"So many Secret Source books, did you make all of these, Master?"
Lynn, in the form of a goddess, shook his head slightly and smiled, "No, Nanako. These were compiled by a very knowledgeable mage on your Violet Continent a thousand years ago, spending a lot of effort to organize the Secret Source magical tomes. Master only collected a part of them."
Upon hearing this, Nanako was shocked.
So, these weren't made by my disciple!
I was really scared!
I thought my disciple was knowledgeable to the point of no bounds!
It seems there are still many talented people on the Violet Continent!
Nanako immediately asked expectantly, "Master, may I ask who the existence that compiled so much Secret Source knowledge is...?"
Lynn, in the form of a goddess, curled his lips and said,
"It is the great Violet Lord, child."
"......"
"......"
The wind blew past Nanako's dazed expression.
Lynn paced, looking up at the sky at a 45-degree angle, his eyes filled with reverence, "Child, you must always have the heart of a disciple. I once briefly came into contact with your Violet Continent's king. He is the only human I truly admire from the bottom of my heart."
"His knowledge is so vast that even I, as the master of ice and snow, have many questions about ice magic and laws that I need to consult that great being."
He turned his head, looking at Nanako tenderly, and said,
"Child, if you have the chance, remember to set up an altar at home and often think of his name. Your king will bless you."
Nanako said dazedly, "Okay... okay..."
So...
Why can you, my disciple, praise your other persona so naturally while wearing a disguise?
Aren't they both you?!
And with so many personas, won't you split personalities?!
Master has already discovered two of them!
Lynn sighed, then turned his head, smiling as he looked down at Nanako,
"You can slowly study these books. Don't rush. If you want to solve the Secret Source curse you encountered this time, Master recommends you look at these..."
A flash of light.
Several books emitting a faint glow instantly appeared in Nanako's hand.
《Complete Guide to Secret Source Extraction and Synthesis》
《Essential Alchemy Basics for Curse-Breaking》
《Quickly Restoring Vitality After Being Drained by a Dragon (Secret Source Edition)》
《Basic Secret Source Curse Quick Start Tutorial》
Nanako was stunned, her gaze falling on the third book.
"Being drained by a dragon..."
Swish swish——
Before she could finish, the book was instantly taken back by Lynn at an unimaginable speed.
Lynn maintained his smile, dignified and elegant, saying,
"Alright, child, go back and study these books well. All you need is right here."
Nanako stared at her empty hands, bewildered, "Master, what was that book called, being drained by a dragon..."
Lynn smiled, "There are no dragons here, child."
"No..." Nanako stared, gesturing, "Being drained... that book..."
Lynn maintained his dignified smile, "Child, you're too tired. Go back and rest!"
"No, I mean..."
"Aren't you going to help your companions lift the curse? Don't waste too much time here!"
"Hey, wait a minute..."
Before Nanako could ask anything else, she was instantly sent back to her bedroom.
A flash of light.
She opened her eyes.
Nanako sat up from the bed, looking around in confusion.
"Back?"
Then she saw that her hands had already taken hold of three thick books.
Nanako's eyes immediately showed hope.
Although every time she went there, she had to endure a big showdown from my disciple in front of her.
But no matter what,
This curse now has a way to be solved.
However, it still feels like my disciple has many secrets.
Nanako's delicate eyebrows furrowed, a bit puzzled.
My disciple isn't usually very lazy?
Why does my disciple seem to have a very deep understanding of the Secret Source...
Nanako shook her head, not thinking too much.
The most urgent matter now is to find a way to lift the curse!
She quickly flipped open the tomes, her eyes full of energy.
One page.
Two pages.
Serious and focused.
Soon, Nanako discovered the difference between the Secret Source and magic.
If it were current magic, as long as you are strong enough, you can use curse-breaking magic to directly erase the curse from the outside.
But in the Secret Source system, once a curse is cast, it cannot be removed.
To lift this effect,
Either die.
Or you can only use a potion to cast a new reverse Secret Source magic on yourself.
For example, if you are turned into a pig, to turn back, you can only drink a potion that allows you to change from a pig to a human.
In fact,
If this potion is given to a real pig, it can also turn into a human.
"How strange the Secret Source magic is... it can fundamentally change a person's existence..."
"The potion formula... let me see..."
"Dragon tongue grass, eight-headed flower, fifteen grams of pure Secret Source, five grams of the cursed person's blood..."
Carefully, taking notes with a pen.
But just as she turned to the next page, she suddenly paused.
Because she found that the paper on the next page was a bit yellowed, and the handwriting was completely different.
Was there an error in the binding? Or...
She furrowed her brows slightly, puzzled, and read out loud.
"Secret Source Indian God..."
"Is it a formula for auxiliary use? My disciple is indeed thoughtful..."
