“The Spirit Grandmaster is the realm of Fusion. There is a reason why it’s called a fusion…” Damian pointed at his head. “The one thing that you will refine when you become a Spirit Grandmaster is your brain.

“The brain is in control of everything, so once you have refined your brain, you are going to achieve fusion.”

“What does the fusion mean? Well, it’s basically the way you use your Spirit Abilities. For example…” Damian formed an ice sword. It was identical to the sword on his waist. “This is my ability, Ice Sword. As the name implies, I can only create an Ice Sword with it. I can’t use it to form a hammer or anything.

“However, a Sword can be anything. A double-edged sword, a one-edged sword, a two-handed big sword, or even a thin sword like rapier. A bow is the same… There are Short Bow, Long Bow, Composite Bow, Crossbow or a lot more.”

“What I have seen for you is your ability to throw your Spirit Ability at your opponent. It’s true that your approach is unique, but you haven’t utilized a hundred percent of your abilities.”

“That’s why you are just a thrower, not a master. On the other hand, what I have done is mastering my own technique. My spirit once told me that it would give me its ability without telling me how to use it. He would observe how I use my ability because my answer might not be the same as his.”

“I don’t know about the standard of this kingdom, but in the Greenwood Kingdom, all Spirit Masters are attempting to fully utilize their abilities like this. It is surely hard, but this is the foundation for the Spirit Grandmaster stage.”

“Once you refine the Spirit Mind, you can easily control your Spiritual Energy. Even if you fail or can utilize a new way even a little bit, when you become a Spirit Grandmaster, you might be able to fully utilize it all of a sudden.”

“That’s why Spirit Masters usually draw the concept when they are at this stage, trying to master at least one or two techniques. When they reach the Spirit Grandmasters, they will master all their abilities.”

“I believe I have answered your question with this.” Damian smiled and took a step back.

Noel nodded with a serious expression. He could only answer him with his action because his mind was thinking a lot of things.

He soon pinched the bridge of his nose while closing his eyes.

There were three reasons why Damian told him about all this. The first reason was his potential.

By telling him about this, Damian could measure Noel’s talent. After all, Noel was the grandson of their former royal magician, Raincart Ezenholm.

The second reason was related to his judgment. Even though he had a smart head, it felt like he had always been burdened by something that made him reliant.

It might be his spirit, but he had never heard a case where the spirits tried to take over their hosts. In other words, his spirit might be a special case since Noel could use two elements.

He wanted to see Noel’s current state so that he could see Noel’s potential.

Last but not least, they were in a business relationship. By telling more than Noel expected, he could create an image that he was generous. With this, Noel wouldn’t hesitate to make a deal with him. Basically, he was doing the same thing that Noel did.

Noel took a deep breath. Although he had a lot of things to sort in his mind, he couldn’t do it while Damian was standing in front of him.

He looked at Damian with a serious expression and politely bowed his head. “Thank you, Sir Damian.”

“I’m just fulfilling my part of the deal.” Damian humbly said.

Noel let out a long sigh and formed another rune in front of him. This time, he used the Rune Sword, but he applied Damian’s advice from earlier.

He turned the sword into a double-handed sword while saying, “This is the second concept. What do you think?”

“!!!” Damian widened his eyes in shock. The rune looked like his Ice Sword ability. Noel might even have more forms and everything could be mastered like the Spirit Grandmaster.

There was also one thing that shocked him the most. It seemed that Noel was able to change the form with ease. He didn’t know how easy it was, but it seemed that mastering a Rune was easier than mastering a Spirit Ability.

In the future, there might come a day when the rune completely overwhelmed a Spirit Ability. At that time, humans might become independent from the presence of Spirits.

He let out a long sigh, feeling defeated once again. He clapped his hands a few times as if praising Noel. “It’s very good, Mr. Noel.”

Of course, Damian understood the reason behind Noel’s action. He wanted to let him know that as long as he worked hard, he could get both the Rune Engineering and the Rune Spell.

All he needed to do was to show his sincerity and work hard for it. Even though Noel was still overwhelmed, he was still as shrewd as ever.

“It seems that we will have a productive one year together.” Damian smiled. That smile was sharp as if telling him, ‘I would make you broke.’

Noel made a big smile since he knew another way to utilize Damian. He wasn’t scared of his threat. In fact, he threatened him back with that smile, indirectly telling him, ‘You might end up spilling your country’s top secrets to me…’

Noel and Damian extended their hands at the same time, shaking each other’s hands.

But it seemed that Noel couldn’t have a peaceful time. Ardagan might have seen his change and started supporting him in a different way. That was why he suddenly showed him a mission.

A blue panel appeared in front of him.
