Lord of the Truth

Robin spent half a day with the new Rune masters explaining to them the basics they would need in this field, and the main components of the Runes...

He explained to them how the main body *the pattern* works and other additions such as seals and how to add and choose their places between the main body of the pattern as they are drawing it.

Explain how to draw and with what inks and on what hides, explain to them how to come up with the seals and that an unlimited number of them can be added within the man body of the pattern as long they follow certain principles, and how these additional seals can always be increased or modified to improve the final output.

The only thing he didn't explain was the source of the pattern... When Robin was asked what those patterns were, he replied that he would provide the patterns to them and that they shouldn't worry about it...

Explaining how he converts holographic patterns into drawn 2D shapes will not help them in any way, it will only confuse them because they will not see those patterns in their lives with their own eyes.

After spending a few hours teaching them the most fundamental things they must know, Robin asked Mila to go get the copies of the Soul Strengthening and Soul Replenishing Techniques she had copied over the past few months, then distributed them to everyone.

And finally got to the part where he explained to them why he specifically asked for cultivators with souls stronger than the average to be the next generation Rune masters...

Technically, anyone can draw talismans, especially after learning these two soul techniques,

But someone with a natural soul talent would show better results and make more runes within the same amount of time, and their training pace on the Soul Strengthening Technique would be much faster as well!

So it was more of an investment to the future, as the younger ones of those present would get better with time as they have the Soul Strengthening Technique

Of course, this doesn't include the old knights, they were here for the instant impact only and make more talismans in the near future, as only the Soul Replenishing Technique would actually benefit them.

After he outlined the two techniques and ensured that every one had his own copy of them both, he spoke, " well, I'm done here, you might not actually know, but I tend to discover and create only, so I will not keep in touch much with all of you,"

everyone began to look at each other, this was not good news for them...

Then he pointed to Zara and declared, "This is my first student in the world of Runes, and she is also the Rune master that made all of the runes that were sold at the monthly auctions!

Study hard... During the next week, if you have questions, ask Zara directly and do not be shy or try to act arrogant around her... She may be young, but besides me, there is no other person who knows the Runes better."

Everyone was surprised by Robin's words!!

This eighth level little girl, who looked like a servant and had been obediently standing by the side the whole time, is the reason the nobles from all over the kingdom gather in the city for?!

Although it would be really embarrassing to ask for advice from a child who seems to be barely thirteen years old, this became an additional motive for most of them...

If this child could organize her own auction and earn all that money per month, what would prevent them from success?

The presence of Zara made the eyes of many shine with hope... and made the eyes of some shine with hidden hostility...

Then Robin continued, "A week from now and after you learn the basics of the two soul techniques, Zara will begin teaching you here in this hall how to make the 6th level fire explosion talisman, you should all be present during all her lessons, you are not allowed to miss a single lecture for absolutely no reason!

If everything goes according to plan and it doesn't There are a lot of idiots among you, I think we can start mass production in two months from now... Any questions?"

They all replied in one breath, "No, sir Robin!"

They finally accept Robin, they finally understand why he has such power within the Burton family, they finally understood why a woman like Mila might submit to him...

That's because he is the one and only of his kind in this world!

"Good, Zara will be coming here every day for the next week one hour before sunset to answer your questions, if you had any, now go home and start learning what you got in your hands, you have two heavy months ahead of you, and then a life full of excitement…

And let me warn you one last warning, protect my two techniques with your life because literally, your life depend on it... if they fall into the wrong hands, you are dead.

I recommend burning the two brochures after you finish reading and memorizing them... You can leave now." Robin pointed to the door

"Yes." Everyone replied again with a bow, even the old ones, and hurried to their residence...

Before, All were either broke with no purpose in their lives and came to though their dignity away for a few coins, or old men on the verge of death who had come to spend the last few days on vacation, none of them expected before coming here that they would find A new passion in his life...

After the last person left the hall, Mila looked toward Robin and asked, "Now what...?"

Robin laughed out loud, "Now it's time for me to find out what happens to the tablets after the punishment for someone who broke the oath is delivered, this point puzzled me for days!"

Then he got up and moved towards the door as well

The two girls looked at each other in astonishment and even some fear, then followed him silently.

-------------------------

After Robin left the hall, he went directly to the patriarch's office and asked him to build two buildings inside the administrative area as fast as possible

One of them is a house of his own instead of the guest building that does not qualify for long term stay, and he gave him his demands that he wants in the house...

the most important thing for him is a large and comfortable underground room that no sound could reach, with a toilet and a special place in the room to salt and store food enough for a few months, and for a smaller room with stronger walls to withstand strong attacks from knights to be attached to his research room to be used as a test room.

All in all, Robin asked for a complete isolated sanctuary under his house.

Zara also made a few requests for her own private room she needed for making the Runes, and also request for a *nice* girly bedroom in which to spend the rest of her day,

But the surprising thing is that Mila was the one the made the most requests for the house, so much that in the end, she got tired of mentioning them and took the initiative of asking to be the general supervisor during the building process!

Robin chuckled and added nothing... All he cared about in the house was the underground room he would use to produce new techniques and come up with new patterns.

Anything else the two girls could mess with as they liked.

The second building he requested was a building for the production of talismans.

He requested a huge structure to be divided into separate smaller rooms and large lecture halls, to be equipped with many tables, examination rooms, relaxation halls, places to store food, hides, scrolls, and other requirements for making inks... In addition to All this, the structure has to accommodate hundreds of people and be their permanent residence!

The second building was a fully functional academy!

An academy of this size shocked the patriarch, there are many empty plots of land in the administrative area, but there is no single piece of land large enough to accommodate an academy of this size, but in the end, it was decided to choose a few existing side by side administrative buildings and demolish them to empty the necessary space...

It was decided to start working on the academy first as the new Runemasters would need it soon, they can't stay learning and making the runes inside the conference hall for ever!

But because the project size was huge, it was decided that it will be divided into several sections and that the first section, which can accommodate 50 fully functioning rune masters, will be ready by two months from now...

when Zara finishes teaching the new rune masters, the academy will be ready for them!
