Chapter 1535 Clues Were Everywhere

Chapter 1535 Clues Were Everywhere
"What's about our affinity?" Theo asked. "I have never asked this, but what's affinity? It's said that it's a relationship between us and the elements. But why does a human only have one affinity instead of multiple affinities?"
"…" Clone Theo couldn't answer it because he also didn't know. "Let's discuss the affinity first. Why? Theoretically speaking, we should be able to wield more than one affinity, right? I mean, there should be a way to do something like that. Yet, no one has actually done it."
"No. There was one research about it. It was the goblin experiment, combining all kinds of genes to the goblin so that they could evolve by having other abilities. But the Lightning Saint destroyed it because it disrupted the Order."
"Then, there is someone who sets up the law that a living being can only have one affinity?"
"Most likely. But who?"
"The world?"
"Or is it the higher being?"
They stared at each other. Although they couldn't find the truth, they believed they weren't far from it either.
However, they didn't actually answer it. Instead, Clone Theo shifted the conversation by saying, "What if this is a kind of our talent? I mean, it is our talent. But what if this being who sets up this law gives us the same opportunity as others for Order and Authority?
"The fact that we can wield one element means we have the same opportunity as the rest to attain Fire Order and the likes."
"What's about the Element Order? You should be able to wield all elements, no?"
"Indeed. That's just an anomaly. Let's talk about the generalization. At least we have the same talent to reach the end goal, which is Order and Authority. Yet, we have to calculate other talents we possess to see whether it's possible or not to attain Order and Authority. Like our Reality Order."
"Indeed. Still, we haven't answered the meaning behind affinity. It's a talent, but what is a talent to you?"
"Talent…"
Both Theo fell silent again, confused. They couldn't define the word affinity.
"The connection to one element… Let's assume that this is the meaning." Theo paused for a moment before continuing, "What's about us who don't have an affinity? The connection to Magic Power?"
"Magic Power is in the air, so it's abundant. If that's the case, won't it mean that our affinity is the greatest?"
"Wait a second. We can attract Magic Power, right?"
"Yes."
"Then, if others can attract them as well, won't it mean that every single Magic Power in the air has elements in them? I mean, let's think about atoms. There are protons, neutrons, and electrons inside it, no? If we think this way, we can assume that the Magic Power is the atom and particles are the elements."
"What we attract is the atom itself while the rest is attracting the particles… This can explain how the Frost Saint used his ability.
"The reason why we couldn't feel the Magic Power and stop him from affecting the Magic Power in our breath is because he was connected to the Ice Element inside the atom, not the atom itself."
"That's right." Theo gasped. "If we think this way, our Attribute Removal is exterminating the Ice Element inside the atom, not everything in it. Only by using Reality Removal can we erase all of them since we're erasing the Magic Power itself.
"We have been using that power without realizing this concept. We have been too focused on elements in general knowledge instead of detailed one. That's why we can't do anything against Frost Saint.
"What if we lock the Magic Power itself instead of removing them?"
"What do you mean?"
"If we lock the Magic Power and isolate the element inside, we can stop other Orders from affecting the elements inside. This way, even the Frost Saint won't be able to easily use his ability."
"But locking every Magic Power is hard and requires a lot of energy. It's impossible."
"But if we just erase the elements from Magic Power, the elements from other Magic Power in the surrounding will soon fill up the emptiness. That's why unless we use our power continuously, the enemy can use their element again. Wait a minute, so erasing their element has nothing to do with Mythical Rank Expert's characteristic this whole time? What the hell?"
"Instead of complaining, I think I've got the answer from the Sword Saint. He can cut precisely from the distances, right? Is he using the Sword Element inside the Magic Power? Is there even such a thing?"
Clone Theo contemplated and said, "What if he controlled the Magic Power instead of elements?"
"That's the only explanation I guess. In that case, we should also focus on what to do with the Magic Power with our Reality Order. Instead of removing them, what if we change them according to the laws? With the help of Reality Realm, we might be able to stop someone from using their elements for a bit. This will only affect those with affinities though."
"But it's worth the shot."
Theo, for the first time in his life, went into details for every understanding he had. It turned out all the clues were already present in the world. However, they never thought about it and just utilized them for granted.
In fact, Isaac had been a great help to him since a scientist's way of thinking was similar to what he was doing right now.
Theo learned what kind of mind he should have when approaching his law. For every statement he had, he would ask many questions to understand them correctly.
Only when he felt the depth was enough for the laws would he finalize this kind of law.
This was a new concept for Theo, so it was interesting. Theo continued focusing on his law and only stopped when he was about to eat. Of course, Coline was the one bringing it to the temple since Theo couldn't be bothered to go to the cafeteria to meet her.
Theo also asked the rest to gather a bunch of Skill Cards since it would be good if he could strengthen others when they began to live with them again.
But for now, Theo kept holing up inside the temple, creating one law after another.
