Chapter 148: Comprehension

Once Charles spent the Exp points, the whole Inner World began to shake.

In an instant, Charles knew that the change was happening in the direction where the System Cube was located and got confused.

A second later, his illusionary jade eyes widened all of a sudden.

Because what he appeared from that direction were not few runal words, but a dense amount of runal words!

Like a tornado, those runal words appeared next to him in seconds, encircled the [Crimson Step] spell model, and soon entered inside.

'This change is definitely due to the change in my affinity.' Charles hovered in the sky and patiently watched the construction process.

Unlike the last times, the System took only a few minutes to construct the spell model!

'3 minutes 40 seconds… Not bad.' He nodded pleasantly and soon withdrew his consciousness from the Inner World.

After that, he glanced at the entrance and spoke.

"Mr. Runeth, if some creature tries to enter the cave, woke me up."

"Oh? Did you already construct the last spell model?" The Holem's Crown asked in a surprised tone.

"Yes. The artifact took a total of 3 minutes and 40 seconds to construct a Rank-2 spell." Charles didn't hide anything and spoke truthfully.

"3 minutes 40 seconds… Only divine level affinity holder could construct at this speed." The Holem's Crown spoke in a stunned tone.

"Yes. If the artifact could also help me comprehend those spell models at such speed…" His young, energetic voice trailed off and soon disappeared in the gloomy cave.

"Don't be too greedy, lad. Start your work, I will do the guarding." The Holem's Crown said in a solemn tone and flew out of his hand. After that, it rose in the air and started to float.

'He is right. I should start comprehending the spell models in this Fire Plane. I have a vague feeling that I might receive some unexpected rewards if I chose to comprehend the spell models here.' He nodded thoughtfully and took some rest.

An hour later, he woke up as he sat in a cross-legged position, straightened his back, and then closed his eyes.

In a second, he entered the Inner World and found himself hovering in front of the spell models.

'I should start with [Fire Seed] spell model.' He moved towards a particular spell model and started to understand the meaning hidden in those runal words.

Unlike before, he also used the [Cryptic Analysis] skill regularly and started to study.

Seconds turned minutes, minutes turned hours, and soon one day passed in a blink of an eye.

But Charles didn't even stop for a second and continued to comprehend the Fire Seed spell model.

After some time, he suddenly grasped some deep meaning hidden in the spell model and entered into an enlightened state!

His comprehension percentage started to rise at an unimaginable speed!

Within two minutes, the comprehension point rose from 65% to 90%!

It didn't stop, though. By the end of the third minute after entering the enlightened state, Charles completely comprehended the [Fire Seed] spell model!

He soon opened his eyes with a shocked look.

'This… Is this the advantage of having Genius-level affinity?' He became speechless.

Letting out a deep sigh, he shook his head and silently left the Inner World.

For the next few days, he mainly focused his attention on comprehending the other spell models.

But occasionally, he would go to Edhen to have some delicious food and then return to Fire Elemental Plane in a hurry.

He would also go out of the cave to kill some Drakes and already earned around 12,500 Exp points!

Today was the twelfth day in the Fire Elemental Plane.

But in Edhen's time, only eight days had passed.

Currently, Charles was hovered in front of a reddish hexagonal spell model and was staring at it deeply.

He was comprehended the last [False Blink] spell model in the Inner World!

During the past two weeks, he comprehended the other spell models and made many breakthroughs. Not only that, but he also entered an enlightenment state thrice and received some big boost when comprehension.

But what shocked him was not the big boost but the comprehension percentage.

When he comprehended the [Soul Heal] spell model a few days ago, he suddenly gained enlightenment and started to comprehend at a fast speed.

But in mid-way, he perceived some deep knowledge from the runal words and went further into an enlightened state!

After glancing at the knowledge, he found out that information was related to the Rank-3 spell model and got shocked inside!

With that thought in his mind, he continued to grasp the secrets of [Soul Heal] for 30 long minutes.

By the time he woke up from the strange enlightened state, he had sensed a significant change in comprehension percentage!

It rose from 78% to 210%!

He even saw many strange bluish-green fire lines started to appear one by one in the spell model!

He also discovered that he could use this flame to purify his soul from curses!

He later learned from Runeth that he could erase the [Amber Curse] mark from his soul one day!

But Charles was well aware of his capabilities and knew that it would take years or even decades to achieve that level in Soul Fire comprehension.

'But this is good news.' He thought.

Casting those unnecessary thoughts away, Charles focused his attention on the spell model and continued to comprehend.

Unlike other spells, this one took him more than three days to reach 96% of comprehension.

'I also didn't receive any enlightenment.' He let out a disappointing sigh and continued.

As he was about to concentrate, his [Cryptic Analysis] skill trigged on its own and gave him a revelation.

'False Fire not only can manipulate space element, but also manipulate other elements like water, wind, earth, light, darkness, and time. For the past three days, what I comprehended was not related to the space element, but the process of manipulating the space element. But this Fire has a huge drawback. Unlike other spells, I need to spend twice the amount of wisdom power aka the soul power to cast this spell.' A look of realization appeared on his face.

'Hmm, if I want to fully comprehend the real False Fire, I need to focus on comprehending the whole division, not just a single element. But I don't have any information about this strange Fire. Unless I gained some enlightenment, I won't gain much information about this False Fire at all.' He nodded thoughtfully and soon focused on the spell model.

Two hours later, he finally completed the comprehension and left the Inner World.

He then opened his eyes and looked around the gloomy cave. Soon, he zeroed his gaze on the hovering bracelet and asked.

"Did something happen?"

"Yes, a group of Lava Orcs appeared on the opposite side of the Lava Lake and seemed to be building tents. They are civilized ones." The Holem's Crown said solemnly.

'Civilized ones… Are they from Miners' Den?' Charles furrowed his brows for a moment and started walking towards the entrance.
