I Pioneered Scientific Magic - Chapter 151 (Patreon)

"Unfortunately, the duration of this supernova explosion is very limited. It seems the gathering will have to come to an end for now," Lynn said, feigning disappointment. She activated some special effects in her smart brain, creating spatial distortions.

Harof couldn't quite understand the connection between the supernova explosion and the maintenance of this space, but he was relieved to hear that the meeting was ending.

Both of them exchanged some pleasantries and agreed on the time for the next meeting before simultaneously exiting the magical domain.

When Harof's consciousness fully returned to his body, he was drenched in cold sweat, as if he had just experienced a fierce battle.

"It seems it's over... So, did you gain anything, or did you encounter any troublesome situations?" Aurora asked, propping her chin on her hand and teasingly inquiring.

Harof glanced at Aurora with annoyance. He had put in a lot of effort to avoid being looked down upon in the Wizard's realm, preserving the reputation of legendary wizards. He wished he had let Aurora handle this mess from the start!

Of course, that was just frustration talking. Even if he had a second chance, Harof wouldn't hand over the ring, as the magical theories about the boundless universe were too captivating to let go.

"If I have to mention something I gained, it's that..." Harof hesitated for a moment, thinking about the magical newspaper written by Rorl. He sighed and said, "The magical theories in the Wizard's realm might be outdated."

Aurora raised an eyebrow in surprise. "You know about vacuum quantum fluctuations, cosmic radiation, and the Hubble law?"

Harof chuckled and asked, "Were those researched by the Society of Mystical Arts?"

Aurora shook her head, indicating she hadn't heard of those terms.

"What about supernova explosions and the Big Bang?" Harof continued.

"Are these subjects studied by the Society of Mystical Arts?" Aurora interrupted, unable to contain her doubt. After all, they had some knowledge of the cosmos, and it was impossible that they were completely unaware of these theoretical concepts.

"Are you sure they're not just using some fancy, mysterious words to confuse you?" Aurora questioned.

"Just a moment ago, I witnessed the spectacle of a star falling," Harof sighed, shaking his head. "The high-temperature produced during the destruction of a star can melt everything, and the sparkling light can even illuminate an entire galaxy. The magic we possess is nothing compared to that kind of power. The Society of Mystical Arts calls this phenomenon a 'supernova explosion'!"

The name sounded poetic, but the implications were chilling.

After a brief pause, Harof continued, "Do you remember, thirty years ago, when we observed a star suddenly shining brightly for a whole month and then disappearing? Now, looking back, that must have been a star reaching its end!"

Aurora listened to Harof's detailed description, trying to picture the magnificent scene. If stars could also have their doomsday, what about the sun they had above their heads? Could it also have a time of falling?

"The wizards of the Society of Mystical Arts must have developed a more powerful form of farsight magic," Harof said with conviction. Only that explanation could clarify their profound knowledge of cosmic stars.

And only by witnessing it firsthand could they perfectly recreate the spectacle of a supernova explosion.

Aurora nodded, and as legendary wizards, she couldn't believe the Society had made such rapid progress. The only explanation was that they had clearer and farther-reaching vision!

"Furthermore, I noticed something strange about those legendary wizards of the Society of Mystical Arts," Harof hesitated for a long time before speaking cautiously.

Aurora raised an eyebrow. "What's strange about them?"

"They gave me the feeling that... it's like facing a star!" Harof pondered his words. "It's like they're different from us."

Aurora looked puzzled. "You can't be serious, can you? People can't be like stars."

"No, I'm very sure I'm not mistaken!" Harof stood up, paced around the room, and after a moment of contemplation, an idea suddenly occurred to him.

Harof halted, and in an uncertain tone, he said, "Do you think it's possible that their method of promotion is different from ours?"

These legendary wizards from the Society of Mystical Arts were more knowledgeable and powerful, there was no doubt about that.

Now, the apparent differences in their qualities raised intriguing questions. Harof, who had witnessed the destruction of a star, began to entertain the idea that their method of promotion might be flawed.

Aurora seemed to understand Harof's implication immediately and stood up from her seat. Magic swirled around her, and she spoke with astonishment, "This can't be true! Someone has already paved the way, haven't they?"

"If she's right, do you think we can stand here as we are?" Harof taunted.

From wizard apprentices to full-fledged wizards and from full-fledged wizards to grand wizards, there were fundamental differences. But legendary wizards and grand wizards had none! The only distinction was that legendary wizards unleashed more powerful magic, but it didn't fundamentally differ from what grand wizards did. Or perhaps they hadn't found the key yet.

Thinking about this, Harof shook his head. It was more appropriate to say that they were merely grand wizards who had crossed a certain limit.
