Lord of the Truth

The Patriarch Building - Main Hall

After Robin finished writing the five minor law techniques and the foundation modification Technique in multi-use scrolls, he went to the Patriarch and told him to summon all the Saints and Senior Knights…

Then he sat down with him to wait for them, "Uncle Brian, did you prevent the residents of the Duchy of Evren from attending Jura grand auctions as we agreed?"

The Patriarch nodded, "I announced it two months ago, and what we expected happened... They closed the borders with our new lands, they are now completely isolated there..."

"Was there a reaction from the royal family?" Robin asked, The worst-case scenario that was predicted has already occurred...

"yes, Prince William contacted us to find out why we prevent the Evrens from participating in the auctions, and when we told him about the weapons tax they imposed on us in entering and leaving from our own lands, he told me that he would try to mediate... but to no avail, they still insisted on the tax and even raised it to 15% of the All weapons, as a punishment for our decision to ban them from auctions." The patriarch shook his head

Robin chuckled, "They can even ignore the royal family to such a degree? As expected of the most powerful duchy in the Black Sun.. well, let's play till the end and see who establishes his word... what about our 3 special forces, their field training started yet?"

the patriarch shook his head again, " they are all still secluded as well, I think it will take a few more months to comprehend such a technique, then I have plans to send them to the beast zone for their training, you don't need to worry yourself about them."

..... In the span of another two hours of awkward silence, all the high level knights and Saints were gathered...

They had all been in training seclusion for the past three months, and Robin even found that two of them had managed to break through from level 19 to level 20 already!

And some other knights were about to start trying to break through to level 20 as well, and it was all thanks to the energy cultivation technique alone!

Regardless of gaining power, winning the incoming wars and so on, each breakthrough equals extra years in their lives.. and for those old monsters, that's more than enough motivation to do their best in training even more than the young generation!

So when the patriarch summoned them by saying that Robin wanted them in a hurry, they immediately left what they were doing and came

"Please, all of you, insert your spiritual sense into the scroll bearing the name of the minor heavenly law with which you built your Knighthood pillars," Robin spoke after he unfolded 5 scrolls in front of him, completely empty except for a few words on top of each of them representing the name of the technology inside.

And now after also following Robin's words and injecting their souls into the four scrolls, they fell silent for a few minutes, then...

"Beautiful.. so this is what a real law technique looks like." One of them was enveloped in tears, he started regretting every second he spent cultivating his previous technique...

"Is that really the same law I was studying?! Sigh~" Another shook his head

"Robin... why are you showing us this now?" Billy asked annoyingly, They can't change everything they've been doing in their lives now that simple, they should follow the same technique... even if it is bad it is still what they have.

Robin didn't reply, but rolled another scroll, "Now you all inject your souls here."

After a few sighs, they all started to pass their souls in the last scroll as well, not expecting anything this time...

The enthusiasm they had just before dissipated after seeing the perfect technique of the laws they had been using all their lives...

after seeing them, they feel that they want nothing else from this life but cultivating these precious techniques, but they knew it was too late...

It was really an ugly feeling to see something you want and have it in your hands, but still, can't use it...

....a few minutes later, a shout rose suddenly, "Impossible!!"

The first person who opened his eyes let out a loud shout and stood up in a hurry

"This… this…?!"

"Is this even possible? Robin... what exactly is this technique?!"

Robin waited until the last of them woke up and spoke, "You must have understood parts of it by now, and it is exactly as you think it is.. Use this technique as a medium to reconstruct all your pillars and levels using the law technique that you just took."

"I... this..." Some fell into a long silence, some started to mutter...

"Can we... reconstruct everything we once knew?"

Robin shook his head, "Not to that degree! This technique can be used to fix the issues in your previous solid cultivation but it should be the same law... It's also a bit slow, I think it will take you a whole year to finish solving all your old issues and then you can continue towards the higher levels using the perfect heavenly law techniques I gave you, do you have any questions?"

When he found that his question was met with a long silence, "Well, I guess there are no questions, good luck!" Then he turned and left quickly.

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

"Oh? Theo! What are you doing here?" Immediately after Robin came out, he found Theo standing there, waiting, as last time, but the difference this time was that his bow was a complete one, his head was at the same level as his thighs

Theo raised his eyes toward Robin's, *Thank you, father..*

A few words appeared in Robin's mind immediately, no sound, no feelings... just words that appeared in his mind that were foreign to his usual thinking, but it was very clear that they came from Theo... He had learned the Thoughts Conveying Technique

"Oh? Hahaha, perfect, looks like the technique works really nice.. this is the first time I experience it, it can send the thoughts directly into another's mind and is then translated into an understandable language, I didn't hear a particular voice but I knew that you were the one who is sending it... good, very good, as expected of me haha..." Robin approached him and patted his shoulder.

As for Theo, he took out a scroll of his clothes and passed it to Robin *This is the thoughts conveying Technique, father, it has been learned by both the Dark Legion and the Wind Legion as you commanded*

"Hmmm.." Robin received the technique and started tossing it in the air, and seemed to be thinking of something, "Was it too hard to learn?"

Theo shook his head, *No, father, ten days should be enough to master it.*

"Good, take it and bring it to those old monsters who are sitting with the patriarch and tell them to train on it too, then pass it on to Caesar and have him and the Fire Legion train on it... I think it will be useful to them one way or another, after they all finish, leave the scroll with Zara or Mila at the academy and have them distribute it among the rune masters too.."

*Yes* Theo nodded and bowed again and started walking towards the patriarch's building, while Robin headed for the academy...
