The brave man opened the coffin and rose

Abbes showed some interest in what Sister Agatha said.

"You didn't know I would come, but you knew that someone from the small kingdom of Womuza would definitely raise the banner of uprising, right?"

Being able to summarize the laws of history is actually a privilege.

After all, looking up at the stars and looking back at the past, in direct relation, have no positive effect on current life.

Only those who are free from work have the spare time to do these things.

Although for an outsider like Abes, it was a border kingdom in the divided north, and a ruler who killed his brother to get the throne.

When there is external invasion, General Paidi and others inside will take the opportunity to transform themselves into warlords and cause chaos, and then someone will rise up. This is an obvious and simple truth.

But those who are involved are often confused, while those who are not involved can see things more clearly.

Abes can see the situation at a glance, but the people in charge always find it difficult to figure out, and even have some unrealistic ideas.

For example, they believed that the other generals did not intend to cause chaos, but must have discovered General Paddy's idea of ​​mobilizing the army and reorganizing it under his own command. In order to preserve their own military strength, they launched a rebellion to fight violence with violence.

When everything is over, the small kingdom will return power to the main kingdom and restore peace.

Others believe that General Paddy used the wartime privileges of the seven generals to reorganize the troops in order to resist foreign enemies in the future.

If the other generals had not discovered the clues and volunteered their troops, General Paddy would have reorganized his troops and started dealing with the Lizardmen barbarians in the Eastern Wilderness.

They need a revolution to change the status quo, but they always have inexplicable expectations of the bureaucratic class that stands with the monarchy.

Therefore, it is a rare courage and wisdom for an old nun living in Sweet Leaf Town to be able to make the judgment that an uprising in the small kingdom of Wommza is imminent.

"It's just a little inference. In short, it's because I knew the rebels would definitely come that I stayed indoors after you arrived, just to rush to make this."

Sister Agatha smiled and grabbed Abes' arm, pulling him to the end of the drainage tube, where some crystals were being born from it.

"What is this?" Abes was a little confused, while Bing Nagi on the side was staring at it with a puzzled look.

"Knowledge and technology for any rebels that arrive here."

----------

Sister Agatha, the kind-looking old lady, offered something that made both Hirayama and Abes’ eyes widen at the same time.

To explain the importance of this thing, we must first talk about the difference between divine magic and arcane magic.

Divine and arcane spellcasting are two completely different systems:

The focus of divine arts is on being related to spirits or gods.

Professions that use divine magic are not limited to clerics and paladins, who gain power through prayer, rituals, or connections with gods.

However, to use divine arts, one must have God in one's heart, and everything is the blessing and guidance of the gods.

The arcane is a nature-based form of magic that is acquired through study and practice.

The wizards' extensive knowledge and strong memory, the druids and rangers' use of natural energy, or the tricksters, who are clearly a branch of rogues but achieve magical effects by mastering specific knowledge and techniques, most of the spells they use are arcane.

Arcane magic usually involves spells, chants, circles, runes, and implements, but there are many exceptions that can be omitted.

So in general, it seems that as long as there is God in your heart, it is divine magic, and if there is no God in your heart, it is arcane magic.

However, this crude method of distinction does not capture the essence.

"Before I became a nun, I was a trickster."

It was because of Sister Agatha’s experiences in her youth that she had many questions about the definition of the arcane and theocracy.

Some wanderers pray to non-existent gods such as darkness and thieves merely with concepts. In this case, what category does the spell used belong to?

Although druids did not materialize nature as a god, their respectful attitude toward nature was usually no less than that of nuns and priests toward gods. Why did they mostly use arcane magic?

And in the list of spells they use, those that belong to divine spells, and why are they divine spells?

Could it be that sometimes they regard nature as a god, and sometimes as the Son of Man?

For example, healing spells are divided into two categories: arcane and divine.

How can the same spell be divided into these two categories?

What is the difference between arcane healing spells and divine healing spells?

"After observation and research, I also discovered the difference between divine magic and arcane magic. What is the only difference between the two?"

"The trail of magic!"

"When using arcane magic, the source and destination of magic power are very simple. A portion of the free magic power from the outside world is added to the magic power in the caster's body. Once the total amount is reached, it can be activated."

"But divine arts are much more complicated."

"Divine magic cannot utilize the free magic power in the outside world, but can only use the magic power within the caster's body."

"At the moment when that amount is reached, the magic power will disappear from the caster's body out of thin air. After disappearing, it will immediately return to the caster's body in the form of a purer magic power with more magic power."

"Then, this pure and massive amount of magic power that has returned will be used to cast spells and consume it completely."

"That's why, although both are healing spells, divine healing spells consume less energy."

"And the entire process above is the core difference between arcane magic and divine magic. Even if there is no god in your heart, if the magic power follows this trajectory and process, it is undoubtedly divine magic."

After hearing the other party's theory, Bing Nagi seemed a little confused.

Obviously, these new theories were fighting with the old theories in her mind.

As a well-informed wizard from the three eastern kingdoms, she had accumulated far more knowledge than the native wizards in the north.

But the more she knew, the more terrifying she felt this doctrine was.

If having no God in one's heart can be judged as divine magic, then what is the meaning of the existence of God?

How do we judge whether a person’s faith is sincere or not?

Can prayers to nature, or even to darkness and theft, be considered prayers to God?

Since divine magic consumes less energy, why haven't so many generations of spellcasters over the past thousand years improved all spells into divine magic?

Seeing the wizard beside him covering her head and thinking, Abes ignored her and continued to ask.

"Grandma Nun, I understand your theory, but what are these crystals?"

"They are proof of my theory. They are the essence of magic that I captured under extreme time conditions."

"The knowledge and technology I offer to any rebel army that arrives here is the means to materialize and preserve magic power."

Abes was shocked for a moment, but then he tightly grasped Sister Agatha's hand and said, "Sister, you have given much more than this."

Abes had countless ideas about where the materialization of magic could be used.

But before that, Sister Agatha conducted a thorough study and analysis of concepts such as theocracy and arcane that are commonplace to people in the fantasy world. This kind of thought is probably even more precious.

When an ancient ape walked under the tree and began to think about why the sky is blue, the flowers are red, why the stars circle around the sky and the rivers flow eastward——

Scientific and rational thinking is already included in it!
