Supreme Monarch

After finally calming down, Tyler no longer wasted time. He had no idea why he was expelled out last time, perhaps it was because he used a spell or maybe the connection between the castle and the dimension the library was located was unstable. If it was the formal then all he needed to do was refrain from practicing his spells here and he would be fine.

If it was the latter then there was nothing he could do for now so he needed to study everything he could about spirit Magic and concealment spells. Although he had wanted to learn the Tier 3 spell - Flight.

'I suppose it can wait. If I'm able to stabilize the connection of the library then I would have all the time in the world to learn it.' With his mind made up he took several step into the library as he searched for the section were Spirit Magic was located.

Although he had also wanted to figure out more on what had happened to him on their way here. Losing control of his emotions and almost casting a spell that could ruin all his plans. He still didn't have any idea on where to start with that and had to put it on hold, at least for now.

The library was massive and he had to walk for a while, searching each section and rows for anything related to Spirit Magic which took more time than he had originally thought. He had been searching for almost an hour now and he still hadn't found it. What's more he had no idea where he was as he had been walking in an haphazard manner.

"Fuck... why didn't I keep track of where I was going." Feeling a bit frustrated and impatient he picked up his pace and jogged around the library looking for either the exit or the Spirit Magic section.

Time slowly passed by and Tyler finally found it. He breathe a sigh of relief as he approached the first bookshelf and pick up the first book. He flipped through the book gradually in a relax manner. He needed to fully understand the situation of the library so he didn't try to rush through it.

His hand turned another page as he glanced through the page and turned to the next. He flipped through page after page, after page, after page, and continued untill he finally got to the end of the book. With a smile on his face he place the book back on the shelf and chuckled to himself.

"Hehe... I really didn't expect something like this... Damn. I can't read a word."

He was laughing at himself as he pick up another book and rapidly flipped through it, placing it back on the shelf he pick another and another and another untill the last book placed on the shelf. "I can't understand anything... Wait wait wait.... what is this? Did i lose the ability to read or something."

Confusion was plastered on his face as he stared dumbly at the books he had dropped on the floor. This made no sense. He was able to read the books here last time and he could still read the titles on these books so why couldn't he read the content.

Refusing to give up just like that, he got up and ran to another section of the library. Searching books after books from different sections to find out if he could read anyone. He ran at full speed but felt slower for some reason. Not paying any attention to this he went in a random direction as he search each section leaving a mess along the way.

Almost 30 minutes later he finally stopped at a shelf as he stared at a book intently. "I can read it." As those words left his mouth a huge weight was lifted off his shoulders as he collapsed on the floor in relief. He read through the book to find out if it was written in a different language and finally noticed something.

With that a light bulb went on in his head as he finally figured out the problem. When he first arrived in this world he had noticed that all languages in this world was automatically translated to him upon hearing. This only required a bit of investigation to figure out the reason behind it.

Upon transmission he was granted a passive level of magic sense that transforms any word with intent into a language he could understand. That alongside his weak innate ability were the only things he got from dying on Earth.

He had learnt how to read the language in the Ruz kingdom manually. It was obvious the skill was still active even now so he hadn't thought about the reason why he could read the books in the magic library in the first place.

The language in the demon continent was definitely very different from the one in the Ruz kingdom as the human continent spoke more than six different languages. He had since accepted this fact as normal and had forgotten something basic. Magic books weren't written In any mortal languages, they were written in Runes. Magic Runes to be precise and the reason he could read this book was because he had learnt a little about basic magic Runes when he was studying to be a magic swordman and had reinforced the knowledge his first time in the magic library.

The section of books he had tried to read had contained higher levelled spell books and they were naturally all written in intermediate or advanced magic Runes which were foreign to him at this point in time. Moreover concealment spells were of higher Tiers and at a minimum they started at Tier 2.

Tyler sighed deeply as he regretted the amount of time he had wasted. All this time he should have just focused on building himself up step by step. "I guess you can't skip the basics huh." He slowly got back up and placed the book back on the shelf ignoring the ones he had dropped on the ground that were still scattered all over the place.

He had wasted enough time already and he needed to begin his sturdy of intermediate Magic Runes. He really wasn't looking forward to this as Learning magic Runes was like studying a second language. It wasn't something you could do in a day. But right now he didn't have a choice if he wanted to make progress as a magic caster.

He walked for a while untill he found the section he had previously found the basic magic rune on. On his way he couldn't help but wonder why such a massive library wouldn't have a magic librarian or catalogue that would help him navigate the library with ease.

The place was actually well organized with numbers in the shelfs and each section only containing related books but there was no way he would know what each section was specialized on without reading the titles on the books. This was the reason why he spent so much time searching for the section in concealment spells.

He located the shelf the books on Magic runes were on thanks to his recollection of the number on the shelf from last time and he proceeded to find the books on intermediate magic runes.

The books on basic runes had only filled the bottom part of the shelf next to it but the ones on intermediate magic runes covered the entire shelf. They were separated it three levels and he had no choice but to start from level one. Magic runes were the foundation of magic. They were symbols that had been imbued with magic essence and contain immerse strength that produced various effects depending on the rune that is used.

Each rune contained a different essence and can produce a unique effect. Although these effects are invisible to the naked eyes mages, sorcerers, wizards and various magic casters combined these runes in specific orders and then imbued magic energy (Mana) upon them to produce different spells. These runes can also be used on weapons and materials to produce various effects as long as they are supplied with magic energy.

It is believed that magic runes are really the language of the gods, although countless mages have tried to study this and find out their true origins, no one has ever succeeded. Magic runes also contain nature's essence, when such runes are connected and merged with a Mana body they can be used to even produce skills that can be used by even those that are not attuned with magic and have very little magic potential.

The more advance a rune was the more specific and more unique their effects will be, the harder it was to combine them. They are like the pixes on an high quality image, useless on their own but when combined and depending on the quality and quantity, they will produce a magnificent and an extremely clear picture. Runes also have different types ranging from elemental to nature bound and various others.

So basically, the higher the level of a magic rune the more compact they needed to be, the more they had to be in perfect order to create an actual spell. This also went the other way around, the higher the tier of the spell, the more advance and compact the magic runes needed were. It was why it was so hard to see a high tiered mage back in the human kingdoms.

Well except for summon heroes, they usually came with their own cheat code, unfortunately Tyler wasn't summoned here.

Tyler had spent more than 12 hours already, yet he was still on the level one of the intermediate magic rune. There were thousands of different magic runes and if these were not separated in sections like they were, he most likely would have not known where to start from.

After another 12 hours study section, he was finally done and although he wanted to build on this momentum and finish all three levels of the intermediate magic runes, he still didn't know how much time he had left since he couldn't learn much on concealment spells without completing this step. He had no choice but to learn more spells and broaden his horizons giving him more options in battle, but before that though he had yet another problem he needed to resolve.

Firstly he wanted to retrieve the artifact that seem to be linked to the throne room. The ring that might also be a key to whatever was behind the throne. Although thinking about it now that might actually be a bad idea, he decided against it after giving it some thought.

He went to the earlier section that contained all the tier 1 spells, since they were all grouped together in a small section of the library. After all a single Tier 1 spell book could contain more than three tier 1 spells but only one magic book could contain a single tier 2 spell and above.

The spells were all separated by elements and forms, he needed to start from here because he wanted to expand on his basics before moving on to higher, more powerful spells. Although for him tier 1 spells were almost more powerful than higher tiered spells but that was partly due to his lack of mana control and was quite te dangerous for him.

He also couldn't test his theories on that here as he was still unaware of what would upset the library. All he could do now was learn as much as he could now and test everything out later when he was out of the library.
