Chapter 330 Complex Method

'All five religions that existed on the continent until a few thousand years ago had a method for awakening the magical powers of the members of our race, master.' Torne answered Vicente's question, surprising him considerably.

As far as Vicente knew, only the Congregation of Revelation had the method of Awakening magical powers. That was what he and more than 90% of the population of the Seidel Kingdom knew, so he was surprised to hear that the truth wasn't that simple.

Torne continued. 'The method used in the Magic Awakening was created by a member of the elven race about 100,000 years ago. At that time, magical beings who relied on gems to awaken their full powers lived virtually hidden throughout the continent.

That was the age of the beasts, or rather, the age of the beings who formed pentagrams and didn't need the gems. They were as strong or stronger as today, and there were practically no pentagram hunters to fear.

Meanwhile, gem-dependent beings lived in hiding, like nomads who couldn't afford to live in one place for too long. Not only would that be dangerous, but it would also limit them and put them under the influence of beings they couldn't fight. So, our race lived poorly.

The few human cities at that time were built by the few magicians who were lucky enough to obtain Magic Gems. But they were less than 0.001% of the magicians we have today, so there weren't many cities like ours today, and the magical development of our race was practically at its starting point, without any tools, spells, etc.' Torne said, teaching Vicente a little of the reality that few in Polaris Realm knew.

Before the Magic Awakening was mastered, humans and other races that depended on gems were much weaker. Relying on luck and special phenomena, only a small fraction of people at that time could awaken their powers at the right age.

But with only a few people Awakening their powers, humans, for example, lived in hiding and poorly because much of the development of this world would come after the Magical Revolution that began 100,000 years ago.

The people before the Magical Revolution in Polaris Realm lived almost the same as the human population on Earth before the Agricultural Revolution!

As such, the race of magic humans was much less numerous than it is today, much weaker, less developed, and basically living as hunters and gatherers of common things.

'But then, a few decades after the elf's Awakening, he revolutionized everything.' Torne said with a twinkle in his eye, for the elf he was talking about was practically a God to all magic humans of this world, someone worshipped by the continent's five ancient religions.

'Cultivating mana back then was the same as it is now, master. But there were far fewer magicians than there are now. Therefore, those lucky enough to awaken their powers had a very easy time evolving.

The resources available were practically unrivaled. Whoever found them could absorb them with peace of mind, and no one would threaten them.

Of course, there were beasts, and they were more dominant than they are today. However, beasts have always behaved like beasts. As long as you don't enter their territory or take what one of them is guarding, they are unlikely to come after you.

Because of this, some of the few magicians who existed at that time were able to cultivate to the 3rd and 4th stages, and some even reached the 5th stage, Paragon.

But this particular elf reached the 6th stage, becoming the first Archmage of Polaris Realm!

Fortunately, he wasn't just a warrior. He was a scholar. That is how everything you know became possible, master. With this elf's advancement to the 6th stage, in just a thousand years, he would appear with the method behind the Awakening.

From then on, everything would be different. The world, which had been primitive and basically lived the same way for countless years, was revolutionized and completely changed in a short period.

All the professions you know were created in this period, along with all the artifacts, complex items, formations, recipes, and spells. In short, everything you see in human cities or buildings was developed in the last few millennia.'

Vicente had an interested look on his face as he listened to Torne's words. Knowing the ancient history of Polaris Realm was very important for everyone, as it was a way to understand why things were the way they were today.

'So, the method of Awakening has been the same ever since? What does it look like? Can someone like me build his own Awakening Temple?' Vice asked.

Torne understood what Vicente meant. 'Sort of.' He said before pausing.

'What do you mean, sort of?

'Is it possible for someone like the master to have a place to awaken people's powers? Yes. But is it possible for you to build such a place? Not at the moment.

To build a place for Awakening, you would need an Archmage. Only someone of that level could cast a spell strong enough to "trap" gems in the Awakening place. There are several steps that I don't know the details of myself, but none of them can be accomplished without the strength of a 6th-stage magician.

So it is possible, but the master is far from reaching what it takes to have such a place.' Torne said, imagining Vicente wanted to know this in order to awaken his sister's powers in a place that was 100% safe. 

'But the master has the option of recovering the Altars of the Cataclysm Order. My religion has already built these Awakening places all over the continent. All we would have to do is repair the damaged structures of one of them.

But even after that, we would still need at least one Paragon to activate the Awakening. Below that level, the mana required to perform the Awakening spell would exceed the magic reserves of the one attempting it, and they would fail.'

'A Paragon, huh?' Vicente sighed, for this was a realm far from his own.

As far as he knew, there were no Paragons in the Seidel Kingdom. Not only that, but those who reached this stage were so powerful that they were considered among the strongest in Polaris Realm!

People at this realm could easily live for more than 10,000 years!

Each of them was a colossus and was related to the leadership of the largest continental forces, including the Congregation of Revelation.

'That will be impossible for me.' Vicente commented to Torne.

'For now, master, for now.' Torne smiled, but that was the fact. 'As impossible as it is for you to help your sister, that doesn't mean we can't try some things.

The Cataclysm Order has been destroyed, but I can assure you that many things related to us are forgotten all over the continent, master. If you dedicate yourself to finding them, we can get a lot of relevant resources for you to grow stronger!'
