An academy city, 7th district, a building without windows.
George once again stepped into the special room where Yassistar Klauslieb was lying down.
"The guy is much stronger than I thought!"
The mental energy swept over Alistair, and George secretly sighed within his heart.
He has always known that Alistair is strong, and he is not his opponent. However, before, he couldn't figure out Alistair's bottom line.
To this day, his strength has increased by geometric progression.
The humanoid form, as the prototype of the small world gradually takes shape, has already approached the level of a single universe to an infinite degree. The dragon form also boasts an individual strength that is similarly approaching the level of a single universe to an infinite degree.
He finally saw the true hidden strength of Alistair.
Through his perception, Alistair's strength was not at the level of a single universe, but it was also approaching that level infinitely.
That means that now, the two of them are about evenly matched, and who would win in a fight would depend on personal skills.
In this regard, it's not arrogance on his part, he believes that Alistair is inferior to him.
From the previous deal, he learned a lot about Alistair's methods.
Of course, the knowledge Alistair gave him was not comprehensive, but that was all right. Soon, he would be able to obtain 103,000 magical books from Entics, which would essentially allow him to learn over 80% of the magic in this world.
That means that while he knows most of Alistar's methods, Alistar only knows the surface of his own.
In terms of methods, the spells he learned from so many worlds would far exceed Alistar's.
"How could that be!"
However, compared to George's calmness, Alistar's mind was like a stormy sea.
George's mental energy swept over him, and Alistar subconsciously reassessed George's strength once again.
In just a few months, George's strength had actually become a threat to him.
What does this mean?
This means that George's strength has now reached a level where it can match his own.
When he last saw George, they were completely not on the same level, and if he had truly fought, he could have ended George with an overwhelming defeat.
In his eyes, the true opponents were only the gods.
But now, he was no longer sure.
"This might not be a bad thing."
After a moment of reflection, he thought that it might not be such a bad thing.
They were, after all, in a cooperative relationship. If handled properly, George could be a powerful weapon for him in battling the gods, much like how he had been cultivating Phantasm Killer.
In a blink of an eye, his mind was racing with countless calculations.
"Is there something you want to talk to me about this time?"
George opened the conversation first.
Although he now had the strength to match Alistair, it didn't mean he intended to clash with Alistair.
As they were in a cooperative relationship, he still wanted to extract some value from Alistar, so everything was still the same.
However, compared to the previous situation where he was in the lower position in their cooperation, now that they were on equal footing, if Alistar wanted to harm him, he would no longer be limited to just issuing verbal threats as before.
"I need you to handle a misbehaving kid for me, and also to go to Britain."
Alistair smiled and said.
George didn't hesitate:
"What's in it for me?"
"What type of magic do you want to learn, and I will teach it to you."
Alistair knew that George's most desire was to learn various types of magic.
But this time, George shook his head:
"This time, I don't want magic, I want to thoroughly understand the issue of the gods."
Magic, he could obtain from Entics right away. It's not necessary to exchange it at this moment. Instead, he could use it to trade for information about the gods.
As for information about the gods, he didn't know much before, only that when mages entered the domain of the gods, they possessed the power to annihilate universes at will.
He wants to understand the gods because, at present, in this world, besides the gods, it seems there is no other existence that can pose a threat to him.
If possible, he would also like to try and capture one to serve spirits. He hasn't served any spirits in this world.
The little spirits are beneath him; he wants a great spirit instead, even though it takes longer to digest, the boost to his power is substantial.
"Okay."
Alistair narrowed his eyes slightly, then agreed.
He intended to use George to deal with the gods, and it was inevitable that he would have to inform George about the gods' information sooner or later.
"Life will die, apples will fall from above, one plus one equals two. All these unchanging laws in the world can be destroyed, reconstructed, and created using magic recorded in the magical books."
One plus one can become three, apples will fall from below, and dead life will certainly be reborn.
Mages call people who can do such things "gods."
Alistar slowly revealed the essence of the gods:
"A god is not a deity of the magical realm, but a mage who has completely mastered magic, stepped into the realm of gods, and can arbitrarily distort all the laws of the world. This is the ultimate form of a mage."
Alistar spent over an hour talking about the information on the gods, and George listened attentively for over an hour.
The information was very detailed, including a list of the existing gods and how they became gods.
The attitudes of the gods towards this world, the harm they pose to this world, and so on.
Although Alistast didn't specifically say it, George still managed to pick up a hint.
Alistar seemed to harbor a deep-seated hatred towards the gods.
"Thank you for the information. I will take care of those two things for you."
George also agreed to Alistast's request after obtaining the information on the gods.
Alistar asked him to do two things.
The first thing was that Yankei Dokuro, the second-ranked superhuman in the Academy City, had rebelled, and Alistar asked him to take action to suppress and recapture him.
The second thing was to go to Britain and deal with the "Divine Right Seat" of the Roman Catholic Church's dark side, which was planning for a third world war to obtain the power of Phantasm Killer and the ten thousand three hundred magical books.
Alistar needed him to protect Upper Bar Current, allowing him to undergo trials while not using powers other than Phantasm Killer.
As for why Alistar needed to protect Upper Bar Current, he didn't hide it from him, explaining that it was to rely on Upper Bar Current's power to deal with the gods.
Both of these tasks were nothing for George.
Capturing a superhuman was a piece of cake for him. Protecting Upper Bar Current was the perfect opportunity for him to find Entics and obtain the power of the ten thousand three hundred magical books.
"Eye of Investigation!"
George instantly appeared in the sky above the Academy City, and a blood-red cross appeared in his eyes.
As the blood-red cross in his eyes lit up, a giant eyeball also appeared in the sky above the Academy City.
"Found."
George disappeared again in an instant.
The Eye of Investigation is the magic of Scarlet Despair Eline. It can use the giant eye that appears in the sky to directly explore everything happening in the city.
It's more convenient than his tracking spell.
