Lord of the Truth

Part of the pattern of the major law of fire, with part of the pattern of the major law of darkness, and part of the pattern of the major law of wind, with several small parts of other minor laws to connect them all together

This is the hybrid pattern *total reflection pattern* that Robin came up with in his meditating days.

The main idea is that the pattern redirects the heat that falls on the walls of the stone furnace back inside of the furnace.

This way there will be no conflict with the heat generation pattern, each of them will work independently from the other,

and also there will be no heat lost unnecessarily by leaking through the walls which is also a major addition!

To put it in a simple way, this pattern will keep the walls of the furnace cool at the normal room temperature, While hell burns inside.

The basic idea seems feasible, but the implementation was never easy.

Robin is trying to connect the pieces of the scattered patterns together by taking the Master Law of Darkness as the main body because of its absorbent and repulsive properties.

The process of solving the puzzle to produce a perfect new workable pattern took him... three months!!

But in the end, he had what he wanted... the first hybrid pattern he produced in his life.

He didn't have to worry about how to hide it in the rocks, or how to activate it, because he had already found the method before in the heat generation pattern, it would just require additional energy to activate this one at the same time as the heat generation pattern, now a level 10 cultivator con only run an improved furnace for 3~4 hours max... but it was necessary and inescapable.

Aside from that, it took him two whole weeks to create a good formula to make the ink needed to draw it, as he needed to put in mind all the attributes he put in this hybrid pattern.

Finally, after 7 months of hard work... the method for making categorized weapons... is over!!

now that the high ranked metals could be melted, the categorized weapons could be made...

it doesn't matter if they will be top notch or not, at least the army will have weapons and shields that won't break easily, and it will be considered an additional way to make money for the family... that's not even talking about what these factories would do to the lives of the citizens of the new lands!

Robin was very pleased with himself when he wrote the last line on the ink formula.

He's taken a big leap in his research, and the whole world will take a big leap forward when the results of this research come to light.

He was so pleased that he rewarded himself with an unusual reward... He brought the food that had been left in front of his door... and ate normally without haste!

Then he went to take a shower and shave his beard!

The subject may seem trivial to any common person, but these are really considered luxuries since Robin entered this miserable seclusion... Even sleeping, he does not sleep more than 4 hours a week, which is very apparent if any one looked at him as the color around his eyes turned black from the severity of exhaustion

Even as he was trying to slow down and not rush, all these rewards took him about half an hour to finish, and then he went back to what he was doing...

When he started this solitude he had three goals:

- Creating a technique of a secondary law of fire for the new noble families... this was done within the first month.

-creating a system to manufacture classified weapons... it took much more than expected, but finally, this was also completed within 7 months.

-Finding a solution to the problem of potential betrayal... this is its time... The time available is 4 months.

It's ironic that Robin ranked his works based on how difficult they were in his opinion, yet the second hardest problem took 7 months, so what about the third and hardest? how much time would that take him?!

But that is how it is, he did not choose this time limit, or it is save to say that he has already pressed his luck by asking for too much time ... if his mission turned into a failure and couldn't complete the last task within the given time, he can only rely on fate and hope for the best.

he can theoretically implement what he has now and get the initial plan done, but giving them his work with a 100% chance that at least one of them will hand it to Dolivar? well, this was not very wise.

Finally calming himself down after a panic attack right after he started, he started thinking seriously

Information leakage.. eavesdropping.. betrayal... all of this stems from the character, what can he do to prevent something like this?

will he have to assign someone to watch every one he deals with? And who will watch that watcher?!

Physical supervision, threats, etc... are useless, if it works, someone could have thought of something before.

there is one thing Robin relied on when he put this point in his head... the soul!

The body is just a machine that moves according to the wishes of the soul, the proof of his understanding is that the soul can remain in the form of wandering ghosts, but the body will rot after the soul leaves it.

If any threat or physical control won't work... then what about a spiritual threat?

Robin has accumulated a reasonable understanding of the soul power during the first 5 months after his return to the Burton family, and his intention is to build on this good ground of understanding to begin to understand the soul more and more, maybe to the point where he can try to influence it!

Influencing the soul... forget about a limit of 4 months, this insolent idea would not have crossed anyone's head even after another 40 thousand years!

Robin knows very well the extent of his arrogance in his thinking, but his foundation on which he depends is that the soul power comes as an extension from the soul itself, if he can strengthen this soul power, does it not mean that this strengthens the soul itself indirectly?

.. and isn't strengthening the soul can be considered as influencing it as well?

If he can Influence it one way, why not try another?

With this mindset, Robin began research based on the soul and how to influence it, and quickly a week passed...

During the week, Robin was inspired by a few ideas. His main problem was to reach the soul itself so that it could begin to affect it, but he began to firmly treat the soul sense as an extension of the soul itself, thus he began to treat it as THE soul.

A second week passed, Robin's suspicions began to be confirmed...

Natural energy is not an extension of the body, but the soul sense is definitely an extension of the soul!

*Knock Knock Knock*

On the last day of the second week, the door was knocked on for the first time after a period of 8 and a half months...

Robin was not angry at this but was surprised... The two girls certainly wouldn't bother him without reason, so he left what he was doing and went to open the door and found Zara, he asked directly "Is there a problem?"

And if at first glance he almost did not recognize her, Zara finally reached puberty and during the 7 months since he gave her the orders to deliver to Billy, she had noticeably increased in height and began to show some femininity, when she saw Robin's surprised look, Zara was embarrassed and looked at the ground and spoke quickly, "Sorry for Disturbing you, father, there has been an envoy from the royal family who has been waiting for you for more than a month, we have tried to prevent him from cutting your seclusion since then but it gets harder with every day passing, and it appears that he cannot wait any longer..."

"An envoy of the royal family? This is...Ahaa!! It's been over a year since I met Sage Albert, damn the days go by so fast..." Robin smacked his forehead, "Shit... I forgot to figure out keys to any law..."

Robin stood at the door thinking a little and then walked out of the room, "Well, where is that envoy?"

"He is waiting for you in the reception room, he's sitting with your wife and he said he won't leave the house until he sees you."

"Which wife? I'm not married yet!" Robin looked at Zara with puzzlement

"Hmm.. that's how Mila introduces herself in front of people now, she says that she is your wife..."

"...." Robin didn't speak any more, he shook his head with a smile and headed toward the reception room...
