Chapter 461
Sin and Virtue Curses
Magic/mana has two forms: Abstract Magic and Corporeal Magic. Abstract Magic Attributes can't cause physical harm, opposite to the Corporeal Magic Attributes.
Attributes like water, earth, lighting, wind, and such elents were all corporeal magic. While attributes such as holy, dark, shadow, curses, and such elents fall under the category of Abstract Magic.
The Abstract Magic could directly cause harm to the mind, and it was physically harmless. This type of magic was very hard to master and complex in many ways. The owners of such magic can't use their mana to strengthen their weapons or use them in physical combat. But if soone mastered Abstract Magic, it was very hard to guard against their attacks.
The Curse Abstract Magic was as mysterious as the Holy Abstract Magic, and these two attributes were the bane of each other. Furthermore, the scoop of these two abstract attributes was so vast that they were divided into many branches.
Just mastering one of their branches was virtually impossible, and only after mastering each branch can one fully grasp the essence of an abstract attribute.
The Curse Magic was divided into two main branches: Sin Curses and Virtue Cures. These two branches are then further divided into sub-branches.
The Sin Curses were curses that feed on the target's sins, while the Virtue Cures feed on the target's virtues. Both of them were almost unbreakable cures if soone was able to master them.
The Witch Race was proficient in Witchcraft, which was the branch of the Sin Cures, and Margaret belonged to the witch race's species called the Vile Witch. The Vile Witch race studies the Whammy Poison and Imprecate Magic. Whammy is invoked by poison, Imprecate invoked by evil canticle sounds, and to study these two disciplines, one needed a magic core related to curse magic.
There were many books and Margret's personal records on Whammy Poison and Imprecate Magic in the library and database, which brought Jacob joy as he finally started his research on these two disciplines.
Jacob naturally chose the Imprecate magic first because it didn't need any physical object like poison. Although Margret left a wide variety of poisons for her inheritor to practice with, Jacob wanted spells related to curse magic more.
The imprecate magic spells were all dependent on evil canticle sounds, and Jacob discovered that there was a special magic ability scripture nad the Hymn of Evil, which was essential to perform an imprecate magic spell.
But he soon frowned when he saw the requirent for this magic ability scripture, 'I need 12 Rectified Stars to make a Star Magic Formation to conjure this ability? But my magic core is only at the peak of star rank, which ans I should only have nine rectified stars. This is a problem. I need more stars to conjure other magic abilities. 'No wonder those guys throw so many magic ability scriptures in auction. The more powerful the magic ability, the more rectified stars I need to conjure that magic ability. Just the silent casting magic ability required nine rectified stars. This is a bit problematic. 'Furthermore, my magic cores won't follow the common sense of the Star Magic System. The Hex Magic Core evolves by ranks, not tiers, while the Water Magic Core was ford directly at the epic rank, and I have no idea if it will evolve with other evolution magic scriptures. 'Even if it evolved, I don't know if I can create this ability in other magic cores than hex magic core….' Jacob beca confused as he was in a dilemma. He had so idea about how his magic core worked, but the water magic core was still a mystery. He still didn't find any record of soone else having more than one magic core, so he was in completely unknown territory on this subject.
"Cursed Immortality!" Jacob decided to summon the cursed book in the hope he could get so clues about how to proceed.
The mont the cursed book appeared, he asked before it could start laughing, "You should've known why I summoned you. Tell , if I evolve my hex magic core to epic rank, how many rectified stars would I get?"
Immortika laughed as usual before replying, "Hehe… you've finally stepped into the field of magic, huh? Very well, I should help you a little. Every ti you complete the prerequisites of a star magic rank of the hex magic core evolution, it will directly reach the peak of that rank." Jacob's expression brightened before he threw another question, "Then what about magic orbits? How many do I have?" "Hehehe, are you really putting limitations on yourself? Do I need to remind you that you're my inheritor? Your body evolves every ti you complete a stage of mine. So, now tell , if you evolve, won't your magic orbits follow suit?" Immortika questioned.
Jacob's eyes went wide as realization struck him, "So you an to say I don't have a limit to how many magic orbits I can have if my physical body is strong enough?" "Exactly! Hahahaha… aren't I great?" Immortika laughed.
Jacob sneered, "Yeah, if only I could say the sa about your personality." "Now, you're just being a jerk!" "We both know who the jerk is between us. How about my water core? Can I cultivate with evaluation scripture, or if I use the rectified stars in the water magic core to form a Star Magic Formation for curse-related magic, will it work?" Jacob questioned.
"Hahahaha… now that's another matter entirely and not related to
as far as I could tell. How about you try and find one for yourself? It's not like you don't have the capital to try. After all, since it's your magic core, shouldn't you be able to control it at will?" Immortika ambiguously replied.
Jacob's eyes narrowed, "You know what, you're right. Last question, is it true that true curse magic can only be learned after grasping Sin and Virtue Cures?" "Heh, it is indeed true, but you're still missing far too much to even think about mastering both types of curses. The sheer scoop of this ambition is sothing that no mortal could achieve!"
