Chapter 177: Learning and Tredy
"You've probably heard from Quinnir about the terrible state I'm in right now. To be honest, in my current state, I probably won't be able to wait for the next mage to come and learn. I will first teach you what you want to learn about time science and assess your ability to understand time science. ”
"Master Xiri, I would like to formally ask you now, if you have the ability to study the results of my life's work, would you be willing to accept my inheritance?"
Devitt admired a young academic mage like Ciri with a strong thirst for knowledge, but he still didn't say it all. Because no matter how much he admires Ciri himself, this part of the evaluation is indispensable.
Unlike other departments, chronology is too esoteric and complex and powerful, and if you don't have enough qualifications, forcibly learning certain knowledge will cause some damage to your own spiritual thoughts, and many of these injuries are fatal. In addition, temporal experiments are very dangerous, such as in the Colin plane, some powerful chronological mages are forbidden to conduct experimental research on this plane, in order to prevent accidents in temporal research experiments and cause permanent damage to the plane.
Without the ability to control the knowledge they have acquired, it is a threat and harm to themselves and others. The more DeWitt admires Ciri, the less he can hastily teach his research to the other party, which is also a kind of protection for Ciri. DeWitt's kind nature makes him unwilling to teach to people with insufficient talent even if the fruits of his life disappear with no one knowing.
"If I have the ability, I am willing to accept your inheritance and will do my best to continue to pass on this knowledge. Ciri replied solemnly.
By accepting the legacy of Master Devit, he also has the responsibility to pass it on, and even if the other party does not ask for it, Ciri does not want this knowledge to be lost in his own hands.
DeWitt nodded in satisfaction, and the two sides had already reached an agreement.
The academic mage community has a high reputation in all planes of the wizarding world, and almost all of them are superhuman, calm, and sincere, and they are extremely committed to themselves. Therefore, as an academic mage from the Colin plane, what Ciri said made DeWitt very relieved.
While enjoying the glory and convenience brought to them by the title of "Academic Mage", all academic mages also attach great importance to maintaining the overall image of academic mages, which is a virtuous circle.
After the two talked about business, DeWitt asked Ciri to go back and prepare for the official lecture the next day.
After one night, DeWitt officially began to teach Ciri about time. As a sign of respect, Ciri recalls DeWitt as a teacher, as Quinnier.
Mr. Devitt is very meticulous and organized when imparting knowledge, and it can be seen that he is indeed very profound in timeology, and has organized all the knowledge of time science into a system, which can slowly guide Xi Rui to study time science comprehensively and systematically from low to high, from shallow to deep.
On the other hand, Ciri's progress in learning also surprised DeWitt. DeWitt, including himself, had never seen anyone as gifted as Ciri as time-wise. Many of the questions don't even need him to explain Ciri, and most of the time, Ciri can ask her own questions to get DeWitt's answers, so that she can learn more quickly and comprehensively.
DeWitt sighed a little, fate is very favorable to himself. When he was young, he chose a wrong path, and fate created another self to remedy it, and now when the inheritance of his life was about to be lost, fate sent him a genius in chronology. Even if it all costs him to disappear himself, Devitt won't regret it.
In fact, even if he now thinks that the choice he made when he was young was not the right one, he does not regret the decision he made. Vatila has his wonderful childhood, the days when he has a mentor with him, it is Vatila who gave birth to DeWitt, even if he knows that it is a mistake, DeVita does not regret everything he has done for Vatila.
During her time studies, Ciri finally met the young Master DeWitt.
During a routine lesson, Ciri was studying intensely when she suddenly heard a young voice appear in her ears.
"This is likely to be your last chance, how about the new learner talent?"
"This is Ciri, from the Colin plane, an academic mage. Ciri's talent for temporal science is unparalleled, much higher than even you and me. Thank you for the fate of the darkness to send such a good learner to me in the last moments and fulfill my last wish. The older teacher DeWitt replied to the young voice, and made no secret of the admiration for Ciri.
Ciri looked up and found a young man standing next to the teacher, with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, dressed in a neat and tidy new robe, with many similarities with the teacher. This man must have been another DeWitt mage who had accidentally appeared during the experiment. Looking at the appearance of the young man, I didn't expect the teacher to be so handsome, just like the prince in the girl's favorite fairy tale, handsome and chic, wise and elegant.
When Ciri and the others started teaching, the young man wasn't there, but in Ciri's senses, it was as if he had always been there. Ciri even felt that the young man had always been there when he first met Mr. DeWitt. The great contradiction between reason and feeling made him feel very strange.
Ciri was observing the young man as the other was observing him, and the two looked at each other, and the young Devitt held out his right hand to Ciri.
Ciri stood up, stepped forward, also held the other's palm, and said, "I'm Ciri, and now I'm talking to, uh, I should say that the teacher next to you is learning about the content of time." Nice to see you. ”
The young man was not arrogant, but smiled and talked to Ciri: "Just call me Tredy, although I and the old guy are essentially the same person, you also understand that I am me and he is him." I've decided to ditch the name DeWitt, the "second half" of which is too heavy for me to like. ”
"I don't think you should be happy to see me. Because my appearance means that the old guy has not much time left, even if I deliberately suppress myself, even if I have the will of the Vatira plane, I should not be able to suppress the trend that he will disappear. ”
The young DeWitt, who should now be called Tredy, seems to be a villain in DeWitt's story. But in fact, the two are only different in ideas and choices, and they are very similar in terms of temperament and quality, and it is obvious that Drydy, like DeWitt, is not a villain or a bad guy.
There's no blame for DeWitt's disappearance, no one can control it. Even strictly speaking, DeWitt's disappearance was his own choice, and he admitted that the choices he made as a young man were wrong. Even now, he doesn't regret it, he is still on the "wrong" side, and only the "right" Tereddy can be left between the two.
