“So Brian.” Iris said, after the two spirits and I sat down in one of the boxes looking over the stage. “What brings you here? You haven’t visited our realm since we first blessed you.”
“Yeah. Sorry about that, but I couldn’t co here myself, so I just … felt like I shouldn’t.”
“We need to teach you a better way.” Lachros said. “You can’t overuse mana like that every ti you co here.”
“I’d appreciate that.” I agreed. “But I ca here for another reason. I got a little sothing and I was hoping Lachros could help learn to use it.”
I brought out the Tiline Staff, and while Iris didn’t care, Lachros clearly reacted.
“... Of course you would be the one he gave it to.” Lachros eventually said with a sigh.
“Is that bad?” I asked.
“No. Not in that way. He did tell he gave the staff away to a new mortal and said that I should help them learn to use it. But since you didn’t have it when we first t, I assud it would have been soone further in the future.” Lachros explained. “Besides, at the ti you barely understood ti, so I didn’t expect you to ti travel that far.”
“... just kill where I stand, why won’t you?”
“I can’t. Holding that staff makes you immune to Ti Magic outside of your own.” Lachros said.
“Oh. Well that’s good to know. What else can it do?”
“Not as much as you might assu.” Lachros said. “At the end of the day, it is a defensive tool, not an offensive weapon. Its main use is protection from Tiline resets, as you should know. But it can also access deleted tilines to restore mories from them. It can also otherwise restore mories and skills a person has lost. Be it naturally or because of outside interference.”
“... So I could have used it to restore the Hero’s skill that was used as a power source for the Goddess?”
“I believe so.” Lachros said. “Admittedly we never used it that way while I lived in the staff. The Hero’s skill was unique in more ways than one, so the staff might not have been able to restore it. It ca from outside of the System. But skills removed by the Hero’s Sage could be restored with the staff.”
“... so I have an infinite skill orb farm in my hands. I can just have Alice remove a skill from soone and then I can restore it with the staff.”
“You shouldn’t cheat the System too much. Eventually it will reset everything if you do.” Lachros warned.
“Alright, I won’t. But it was a fun idea.”
“A dangerous idea.”
“Anything else I should know? And how do I use the mory recovery thing?” I asked.
“The mory recovery isn’t difficult. You simply need to know what you are trying to recover. So as long as you know that a tiline reset has happened, or you know that soone has forgotten sothing, you can simply will the staff into recovering those mories.” Lachros explained.
“... and what if I don’t know that?”
“The Staff should be able to show you people who it can help. I was able to see people we could help while living in it.” Lachros said. “Admittedly I’m not sure how it will work for you, but you will learn. You have all the ti in the world.”
“Sorry, not completely immortal. At least not yet.” I told them.
“You could beco a spirit after death.” Lachros said. “You’d be immortal that way.”
“... I’ll think about it.”
I spent so more ti with the two superior spirits, learning a few spells that will help get to their realm easier.
Then I played for a bit with the other space and ti spirits before returning ho. I didn’t learn quite as much as I hoped, but Lachros was never the master of the staff, just soone living in it.
I was also told that I should be there when the Gravity Spirit is ready to hatch, so I promised to head over as soon as she is ready to be born.
… also, Lua is not going to like this. I’ve now had my ‘third child’ and she isn’t even pregnant yet. Sure all of them have been accidental, but still. And I’m technically not the father of the Gravity Spirit, a sperm donor at most. But Lua will still use that fact to pressure .
Besides, I have no idea how long a spirit egg … cultivates. Maybe it takes decades for the new spirit to hatch.
Anyway.
Now, I do need to ntion sothing. What I did in the spirit world affected my status in a few ways. Nothing major, but just sothing worth a note.
First, my Gravity Singularity Chain had an *asterisk after it. Because apparently the System wanted to change the na of my skill, but couldn’t change it yet. Since a new spirit influences my skill, my skill’s na should be changed to match. But the new Gravity Spirit doesn’t have a na yet. The skill felt the sa, just a na change was apparently coming, and it was now pink instead of black.
I also had a new title, Manafather of a Superior Spirit. It is what you think it is. The title doesn’t do anything extra, just is there. It might do sothing cool once the Spirit is actually born, but it doesn’t do anything yet.
And honestly, after realizing I just accidentally got another child, I needed so packs. So I pulled up Pack Opener and queued up 10 packs of The Dark Illusion.
Spoiler
TDIL 1
Paleozoic Hallucigenia; Red Mirror; Triamid Dancer; Unified Front; Magical Mid-Breaker Field; Blackwing - Gofu the Vague Shadow; Performapal Bot-Eyes Lizard; Luna Light Perfu; Triamid Cruiser
[collapse]
Triamid Dancer shuffles Triamid cards from the GY to the deck while permanently boosting the attack of Rock monsters. And it can trade a Triamid Field Spell for another one.
And that was the only new card, so next pack.
Spoiler
TDIL 2
Forbidden Dark Contract with the Swamp King; D/D Savant Nikola; Totem Five; Magician's Robe; Paleozoic Canadia; Black Dragon Ninja; Assault Blackwing - Sohaya the Rain Storm; Spell Strider; talfoes Goldriver
[collapse]
Paleozoic Canadia turns a face up monster into face down defense. And does the usual Paleozoic trap monster thing.
Spell Strider banishes 2 spells, 1 from each side of the field, to special itself.

Next pack.
Spoiler
TDIL 3
Frightfur Sanctuary; Red Warg; King Scarlet; Performapal Life Swordsman; Blackwing - Tornado the Reverse Wind; Destruction Sword mories; Dinomist Ankylos; talfoes Combination; Tuning Gum
[collapse]
talfoes Combination is a decent consistency card. Just getting more monsters on the field, or to the hand if your opponent decides to destroy it.
Tuning Gum can turn a non-Tuner into a Tuner, but the better effect is the GY effect. It can banish itself to negate an effect that targets a Synchro monster.
Next pack.
Spoiler
TDIL 4
Performapal Inflater Tapir; Unified Front; Black Dragon Ninja; Super Hippo Carnival; Totem Five; Red Gardna; Revolving Switchyard; tamorformation; talfoes Goldriver

Red Gardna; Ninjitsu Art Notebook; Paleozoic Olenoides; Red Mirror; Red Warg; Triamid Fortress; Scapeghost; talfoes Adamante; Magician of Dark Illusion
[collapse]
Paleozoic Olenoides destroys a Spell/Trap.

Last pack.
Spoiler
TDIL 10
Performapal Life Swordsman; Triamid Dancer; Red Mirror; Dragodies, the Empowered Warrior; Paleozoic Hallucigenia; Dinomist Ankylos; Ninjitsu Art Notebook; talfoes Fusion; Tuning Gum
[collapse]
talfoes Fusion is the last new card. It is nice. Just a straight fusion card, but it can shuffle itself from the GY to the deck and then lets you draw a card.
… alright. I've bought myself enough ti. I need to go tell Lua that I accidentally fathered another child. She’ll want apology sex, and that will probably take the rest of the day.
So see you next ti.
