Ronald chatted for a long time with this mage who happened to meet him.
According to this spellcaster named Heken, he is actually the last stargazing mage left in [Larchmont].
Although most of his former companions have resigned from their posts and left the city, Heken believes that the responsibilities of the Stargazer Mage are not limited to spell research.
Human observation and recording of the starry sky.
It is also a very important part of the things that make up civilization.
As an island isolated in the ocean, [Larchmont] has very convenient and excellent conditions for observing and studying astronomical phenomena under specific weather conditions.
Horken did not want these records to be abandoned as the city collapsed.
So he chose to stay here to continue his work and keep the other scroll information properly, hoping that in this way, he could preserve the knowledge accumulated over countless years.
As the conversation continued, Ronald truly admired the work of these mages from the bottom of his heart.
In the dark ages of the past, among the holders of the original scriptures who possessed powerful spells, there were also people who were full of exploration. Some of them tried to get rid of the shackles of the earth and explore among the bright stars in the sky.
Unfortunately, the results were not very optimistic.
Just like what Ronald had heard, even if these magicians successfully escaped from the ground, when they came to the cosmic environment, the distance at the astronomical unit level and the extremely harsh living environment forced them to stop there.
.
In the end, the actual exploration of the stars can only become an unattainable dream for them.
However, under such circumstances, many people began to devote themselves to theoretical research.
With the help of some of the original information that had been successfully deciphered, the stargazers began to gain a grand understanding of the universe. This work was not forced to stop until the war came.
…
Time flies by at night.
Ronald stood...

On the observation deck, it was not until a gust of sea breeze reminded him that it was late that he suddenly realized that he had disturbed the other party for a long time.
This stargazer was originally working.
Ronald decided to leave, but before parting, he curiously asked one last question:
"By the way, do you know the original text "Almagest of Astronomy"?"
"Almagest?" The stargazing mage obviously did not expect to hear this word from Ronald. He frowned slightly, and then his tone became different from before, "I do know this original book, it should be
Or in that war that year, among the enemies who were against us, there was a powerful holder of the original code who used its spell."
"Ronald, have you met people from this school of thought elsewhere?"
Ronald nodded first, then shook his head, and then he neatly took out the original text of "Almagest" from his hand:
"It's like this - I once encountered an enemy and defeated him, and this original scripture also came from the opponent's hands."
"Although I haven't fully mastered the magic yet, judging from the specific performance of some spells, it should have a strong relationship with elements such as stars."
"..."
The moment Ronald took out the original book, the stargazing mage was already stunned on the spot.
He stared intently at the "Almagest" in Ronald's hand, his expression somewhat disbelieving, but then gradually turned into relief and a smile with mixed emotions.
"It turns out this guy didn't die in that war..."
After sighing in a low voice, He Ken then raised his head and looked at Ronald:
"Mr. Ronald, you have accomplished an incredible feat."
"The holder of this original book was a very difficult person to deal with during that war. It was only towards the end of the war that this guy disappeared from the main battlefield along with his original book. And we always thought that he was
He died at that time, or was simply sealed in prison."

"Unexpectedly, this guy fell into your hands!"
Heken has obviously been misunderstanding the real situation. He even thought that Ronald personally killed an original holder of this era, and then got the "Almagest".
And such misunderstanding.
Ronald didn't intend to explain his origins to the other party, so he passed by with a careless eye:
"The spells provided by this original book are indeed powerful, but the required casting materials are severely limited. It can only be said that I was lucky enough to defeat his master."
"You are too humble!" He Ken naturally did not believe Ronald's statement at all. Instead, the stargazer said more seriously, "In the original war, many of our companions were killed by that terrible enemy.
Defeat, this is definitely not an enemy that can be won by luck!"
"..."
With the Heken in front of him speaking like this, Ronald certainly couldn't continue to be humble.
He thought for a while and decided to change the topic:
"By the way, Mr. Heken, seeing that you are so familiar with this original text, does it mean that you have personally seen its power before?"
Stargazing Mage nodded, with some memories in his expression:
"Yes, I did join the battlefield at that time. And the previous holder of this original book...whether it was the terrifying manipulation ability that affected the entire battlefield, or the complete technique that could control people's hearts. This original book
The power of it really left a very deep impression on me at first.”
The perfect art of manipulating people's hearts...
Ronald's expression was stunned when he heard the stargazer's story.
He had previously used the Almagest of Astronomy to fight against enemies, and he could feel that most of the abilities were actually spells based on astronomical knowledge. In the end, the complete magic of this original book actually left the essence of the stars, and instead turned around.
Running towards manipulating people's hearts?
But soon, Ronald realized the reason.
Because if you think about it carefully, this result is reasonable.

Just like the complete art of "The Divine Comedy" [The End of Human Reason] is a spell guided by the core concept of its creation,
"Almagest" is a book built around celestial knowledge, but its essence is the original text that maintains the erroneous theory of geocentrism. It is true that a complete art was born based on this conception, and it is indeed nothing to have the ability to limit people's thoughts.
question.
…
In this way, the fruitful conversation between Ronald and the Stargazer came to an end.
El, who happened to be tinkering with the telescope nearby, was a little tired of it at this moment.
So this guy took the initiative to grab Ronald's sleeves, and then pouted in the direction of the castle:
"Boss, let's keep going in."
"Didn't we agree before that we should go in and see more interesting things?"
Seeing El's actions, the stargazing mage smiled and picked up the pen and paper he had put aside to continue recording his work.
"If that's the case, then you should hurry up and set off."
