Chapter 1096 Insight

Chapter 1096 Insight　　Theo was stunned, surprised by the detailed description from Isaac.

'Original Technique…' Theo muttered inwardly. He looked down, realizing he might have underestimated Technique. No matter what, Technique was one of the five Aspects.

Even the Ascension Step was in this category.

"Still, I don't think your decision is wrong either… I mean, the thing about you not planning to learn Technique for the time being.

"No matter how well I explain it, Technique requires good basic abilities. If you focus on the other Aspects first, you can get a good foundation for Technique. For example, you can combine Control and Breathing with Technique, giving a more unique way to use the idea I stated earlier.

"The geniuses among geniuses could master four Aspects at the same time. My idol is one of them. He's ranked 4th in the world. People call him Sword Saint.

"He combines Awareness, Breathing, Control, and Technique simultaneously to give birth to one of the strongest abilities in the world, God Sword. It's said that no one can stop his swing because that sword strike can literally cut everything, including time.

"That's proven when he had a little fight with the Time God a decade ago. I also believed that those at the top could master at least three Aspects.

"Average genius should have no problem mastering two Aspects while the low end can master one of them. But untalented people can't even achieve the last stage of one Aspect…

"Anyway, that's not important. What I want to say is, you don't need to hurry in learning about Aspects.

"Do you know why Winston is not hunting monsters as much as he wants even though he has the will and time to do it? That's because when you're at Mythical Rank, the fight will revolve around the Five Aspects as well as artifacts or herbs.

"After all, the difference between status points is not that big unless you have many herbs. At the same time, if you can't even control your power, you won't be able to beat an opponent at the same level.

"That's why most people are focusing on their Five Aspects after reaching Supreme Rank. Now that their eyes have become sensitive enough to see the flow of Magic Power, it's the perfect time to focus on your Five Aspects.

"Although this information is not released to most people, I'm sure you can see this obvious stuff if you have some brain cells.

"The average genius usually reaches Supreme Rank at 20 to 25 years old when most of the countries only allow those at 15-18 years old to start hunting. However, they reach Mythical Rank Expert at 50-100 years old. Can you see this?

"If they just focus on leveling up, they can easily reach Mythical Rank Expert at 35 years old. But when that happens, their foundation won't be stable, and if someone at the same level comes at them, they will definitely lose since they haven't mastered the Five Aspects. The same applies to the monsters since they're also getting stronger due to the Five Aspects coming to play.

"That's why those who don't have good talent will be stuck on Supreme Rank Experts most of the time since they need to risk their lives to reach Mythical Rank Expert.

"Hence, the number of Mythical Rank Experts is around ten thousand… It's a small number compared to billions of lives on this planet.

"I have agreed to follow you, so this is the best advice that I can give you at the moment. At the very least, I don't want you to be stuck as a weak fighter in the future. Or… I might need to serve another person."

Theo was silent the entire time, listening to Isaac's words. Although he was already aware of most of the knowledge, Isaac indeed had a unique point of view.

His words gave him some insight.

Obviously, he had been raising his levels as fast as possible without neglecting his Five Aspects. On the one hand, he would be looked down upon because he became an unorthodox person that reached Mythical Rank Expert at such a young age. People would think he didn't focus on his Five Aspects.

On the other hand, he had promised Agata that he would return in three years as a Mythical Rank Expert.

That was why he had been training nonstop.

He had mastered Control and achieved the second stage for Awareness. His Endurance was half-step to the second stage, while his Breathing barely reached the first stage right now.

He wondered if he should at least master three aspects when he was still a Supreme Rank Expert and focus on the rest after reaching the Mythical Rank.

However, he had no answer in his heart.

After listening to Isaac, he realized he should properly consider this matter. Although it might potentially break his promise to Agata, Theo needed to choose a bright future or a life of misery.

'I guess my lack of knowledge is still holding me back. I have learned as much as possible from Grandfather, but it seems I have been overconfident. I should have accepted the tutor from the Star Group because I can understand more about this situation and plan my future better… Under their guide, I should be able to reach it faster. But…'

Theo fell silent and remembered what the God of Mischief said.

'That means I won't find something original like the Invisible Vortex as the foundation of my Perfect Control. It's through the unique encounter that I can maintain my uniqueness…

'No, wait. There's another solution for this. It's to watch the battle between experts. I don't need to watch those in Supreme Rank and focus on those Mythical Rank Experts. With some basic knowledge, I will get an answer that comes directly from myself… This is why people said watching others fight could be counted as experience as well.'

"Hehe…" Theo's expression turned serious as he let out a hollow laugh.

"Joker?" Isaac tilted his head in confusion.

"Isaac. What you said earlier… Is it something from your head? Or have you heard someone saying that?"

"I thought that, of course. I'm smart." Isaac pouted, annoyed that Theo doubted his ability.

However, Theo then pointed his finger at Isaac and said, "I have a perfect role for you."

"My role?"

"Yeah. You said you're good at analyzing things. In that case, use all your ability to keep analyzing me and my power. And I shall keep you entertained by showing you something more unique." Theo smirked as this role was not solely for Isaac. It was also a challenge to himself so that he could keep evolving and getting stronger.
