“Great.” Evelyn nodded with a smile. “That means this quadrant represents mostly the deceleration speed. Just like manipulating the magic circle, by manipulating this quadrant, you will be able to adjust the strength of your magic.

“We’ll now repeat this process for the other three quadrants. Once you’re done, we’ll split them into eight, then sixteen, then thirty-two, then sixty-four. This should be enough for you.

“We’ll record all sixty-four sides and decipher their usage, creating a kind of dictionary related to time magic.

“You won’t understand them completely, but you will know them to a certain extent.”

“…” Nathan was quite speechless. If this was the method, it would definitely take a lot of time. “By the way, how many times do you divide it?”

“Me? I will divide it two more times.”

“256 slices? Are you serious…” Nathan couldn’t help but open his eyes.

“Yes. While it’s true that this is a tedious process, it’s only hard in the beginning. Once you’re able to decipher two or three magic, you will get a general idea of how your magic flows.

“In my case, it’s like I get thousands of words in my dictionary that I can use to form a sentence.

“In your case, I make it a bit simpler. I know I can decipher it much better than the others, and it’s just me paying attention to my own details, even though I know 64 is enough.

“Either way, you just have to follow this method and create a dictionary of your own. The most basic concept is preferable.

“We’ll then overlap them with the general flow before forming the magic. Once you create a certain magic, you need some corrections each time, but it shouldn’t be that hard.

“With my skill, I can probably create magic in a day, but you should have no problem in creating one within a week or two. I will be guiding you on every step.”

“I understand. Thank you very much.” Nathan knew that his talent was pale in comparison to this topic. After all, the person in front of him might just be the greatest master in micro manipulation.

“By the way, there’s something I’m curious about. Do you know about directional control?” Nathan asked.

“Where did you hear that?”

“Duke Coline showed me.”

Evelyn squinted her eyes before replying, “Yes. That’s what I’m doing. However, the way I use it is different from him.

“Although I have never fought him personally, from all the rumors and other information, he is controlling the direction of the element like this…” Evelyn clutched her hand.

Nathan observed the tree, finding the force swirling in the trunk. However, this force suddenly shifted. Instead of crushing the trunk, the force actually cut it.

“If it’s normal magic, it will just crush the trunk. However, if he’s the one doing it, he can use that crushing power to slash it. That’s because instead of a single center point, he changes the center into a single horizontal line. The rest of the energy will move toward that line, still ‘crushing’ everything, but this time in a straight line to create that slashing effect.”

“I see… How about yours?” Nathan tilted his head.

“Mine? I do this…” Evelyn did it again, but this time she cut the tree in a rather peculiar shape. If one examined the cut, it looked like the tree had been cut multiple times, creating a pattern instead of a single line.

It was more accurate to say Evelyn’s control was so good that she could manipulate each point to create this pattern.

If Duke Coline could slash something, Evelyn could create a sculpture from that something. This was the difference between macro and micro ena manipulation.

It was truly unbelievable. Her power was so unique that it was no wonder people recognized her as someone who could go toe-to-toe against Elysion.

“Say… I don’t think I can do it in a week… However, I’m planning to go on a solo trip to grow strong enough to fight the Divine Hand.

“Do you have time to accompany me? Maybe you can continue teaching me during the trip so I don’t have to waste too much time going back and forth.”

“You do know what you’re asking is outrageous, right? You haven’t even paid this favor, but you are already asking for another…” Evelyn’s eyebrows twitched.

“I know how shameless it is for me, but I don’t think it’s a bad idea for you. In the end, the Divine Hand is not the end. If we’re going to visit another continent, I have to get stronger.

“After all, our enemy might have grown even stronger than the ones in your memory. They might not be the only people as well.

“Hence, with me getting stronger, I can definitely help the group during the battle. It won’t be enough to go against a world class summoner, but I think I can help Bella’s battle.”

Nathan was not wrong. While it was true that the Sleeping Garden was strong, Christopher and Sonia didn’t seem to have strong enough talent to reach the arcane level. Sonia was more talented than Christopher, but she would probably need one or two years before reaching this stage.

This just showed how absurd Nathan’s growth was. If Nathan could somehow reach the arcane level, their safety would increase.

Nathan added, “For this favor, I’m thinking about solving the side effect. Well, I don’t have a guarantee because I don’t know the side effects you’re having, but since you already know I have an innate ability, that innate ability might be able to save you.”

“I don’t even know what kind of innate ability you have.”

“The same as me not knowing your side effects. I’m merely having a certain level of confidence due to how versatile my innate ability is,” explained Nathan.

“I won’t be able to go with you all the time. At most, two or three days a week. I’m not that free. I have to help Bella with her work as well…”

“I understand. I’m fine with it.” With Evelyn’s guarantee, he could convince Vivian that he would be safe on this trip, so it didn’t really matter.

“Before that, I have two conditions.”

“What is it?”

“I don’t know if I should agree or not before knowing about this continent. Tell me about this continent first.”

“Sure.”
