Hmm? That''s rather a deep lake. My Mana Detections don''t even reach the bottom. Such areas of water need a steady water source, or am I in the mountains, or underneath something large? Morhgalis volcano? Tabula lake? Murai wondered before diving into the water without the use of his Diving Sphere.

Now. How to open you up, hm? Murai wondered, looking at the main thing on top that had all kinds of runes. It was a clear lock, indicating some kind of method that was for closing this tome against anyone interested in its secrets. It was a precaution put forth by Rudolf, which was something Murai had to figure out. Stuff about runes was complicated, but he would solve it in order to open it up.

[A dear asshole who dared to open this book and wasn''t eaten by my preying intent, nor the complicated notion of this book]
<div>
<div>
[You have at least some resolve, or other mysteries within yourself, which I welcome. If you want to practice the teaching of the Great Rudolf, that is. I will give you a high mental mark while opening this thing, which proves your talent necessary to get anything from me, for your sake or my sake]

[This Tome of mine is a series of my life! A good one, in fact. It''s one of the 10 Tomes I was able to make in Silence. I was hoping to make something for this Battleworld''s people, who eyed and took forces of Gods for millennia or longer. Still, it makes it my home, albeit one filled with meaningful Chaos like any other. It''s worthwhile, so why not come up with something that can shake the world in the far future? This Tome is that. I have been told that at least... by someone, I hide in this Tome]
[Any of the 10 may lead to a certain interesting future or a future will seek one of the 10?]
<div>
<div>
[Anyway]
<div>
<div>
[This Tome is yours now. Learn, and hopefully, make due improvements within the many truths and things I figured about the Manaflow of this world and many other things. The usefulness of the tome may act similarly to the Battleworld. And yes, the World shall be also included, but be careful about some things. Gods may be watching everything I do, or did, or will do. The case of the 11th sun is PRIMAL and ALIGNING]

[May the blessing of the mana be with us all, and you won''t be lazy or stupid when it comes to this opportunity. By the degree of the Great myself, you will be a novice of my Will. However, it depends on your Will too. If you feel inclined to think of me as a teacher, or... You may even hate me instead - for all I care about. I don''t if you read this anyway]

Heh. That''s so like him. I like it. I knew it, but still... Murai turned grim. He turned out to be a fucking human! Why wasn''t I something like this too? Freaking reincarnations! What kind of prank is this!? For the sake of the universe, I will make you suffer! Whoever did this! Murai scowled inside but calmed down and turned the page to the next one, which was an introduction to the chapters and what this tome was about.
<div>
<div>
Huh? Mana Inferno. Rudolf practiced the Flame in this life too, unsurprisingly, or intentionally? Maybe I will give it a shot too since it''s one of the 3 forms of mana I perfected in my following reincarnations after getting to know him on that one. Murai assumed, and read the Table of Contents.

Proceed to page 54 to view the basics of the demonic mana and cases of Rudolf''s deep experiments and knowledge of the mana of the wild nature of demonic species. No Anatiade information was detected.

Ho? Hmmm. Rudolf did something strange in this world. Pairing the fundamental intent to form a message that would involve the soul through the structural magic of runes around the tome? This is a rather complex magic that he didn''t have when I was with him.
Did he improve over his life here? They would make this easier to understand for me, which is great but still... What a nice fella to brave the others. His schtick to others remained the same, I suppose. He ignores and hates the weak, but respects the power and abilities of those who are worth the Power. Murai concluded from the message that was whispering to his soul, so no one else heard it apart from Lisa.

Sounds ridiculous, but interesting. Murai thought and smirked.
