The symbols are now have meaning when I look at them as a whole.
[[Breath of Life] is one of the pieces of knowledge of Creation.]
[The life that has been given, must be treasured.]
[Once it is treasured, a new meaning of life will be revealed.]
I'm staring at those words and I think those are some kind of hints that I might need for later in this quest. I take a screenshot and check the gallery to see if it's readable, but when I see the screenshot the image is blurred and I take another screenshot because I think it's a glitch. I check the other screenshot, and it's the same as before. I think I'm not allowed to take a screenshot of this, and so I open a note and write them down.
"Master, you need to listen to me!"
A high-pitched voice is coming from below me. I look down and there's nobody but Azrael. I look at Azrael and he looks back at me.
"Finally you're looking at me now!"
I raise my eyebrows because I can't believe that I just understand what is he saying.
"Azrael? You can speak?"
Azrael is climbing up my right leg and then sits on my right shoulder.
"What do you mean, Master? I'm always talking with you the whole time!"
So this is the power of [Understanding].
I look at Krestan and tilt my head. A screen appears beside him.

Now I can see everything because of this skill as well. I wonder if this works with players as well or not, but it's said that it only deciphered everything that Betelgeuse created.
Krestan is still writing everything down in the book. Azrael is touching my cheek with his tiny paws.
"Master, you have finally found the first knowledge."
I look at Azrael.
"You know something about it?"
Azrael nods.
"I'm one of the first beings that Betelgeuse created after all. So I know about the first knowledge, but I'm sorry, Master, I can't tell anything about all the Knowledge of Creation."
I nod.
"It's okay, I would rather search for the knowledge on my own."
Azrael nods and then laying on my shoulder. He looks so weak.
"Are you exhausted?"
Azrael shakes his head.
"Yes, but it's because I haven't consumed anything since I left the forest."
I facepalm myself and then sit down and check my inventory. I grab all the enchantment stones and show them to Azrael.
"Eat all of them until you're satisfied."
Azrael's eyes are glimmering and squeaking in happiness and then he munches all of them in an instant. So many pops up are appearing.

While Azrael is busy munching all the enchantment stones I check the title that I got from earlier.
[Exclusive title [The Chosen One]]
[The Chosen One: The one who has finally obtained the Knowledge and is blessed by Betelgeuse. All stats+50, Reduce all damage taken by 20%.]
It's actually really good, but it seems that no titles that can replace the [Indomitable] title that I got from Queen Arachne. If I could give this title to someone, I would.
I look at Azrael and he's already done eating the enchantment stones. I grab the leftovers and put them in my inventory. I open his status screen.

I should level up Azrael later, I haven't killed or even touched monsters ever since I maxed my level. Azrael is laying on the ground while sighing with satisfaction. I pat his head and he enjoys it very much. Krestan then approaches me and then looks at Azrael.
"So, tell me what kind of Amruchi is that? I have never seen anything like it in the book."
Azrael is staring at him lazily.
"I don't like that person because he threatened Master earlier, but he doesn't scare me at all."
I smile and pat him. I look at Krestan.
"He's a Specter Amruchi."
Krestan is furrowing his forehead.
"Specter? What is that?"
I tilt my head and shrug.
"Well, if you want to know more about him, you need to teach me magic and spell first."
Krestan sighs and nods.
"Do you at least have any magic weapon on you? If you don't have any, it will be hard for you to learn magic and spell."
Well, he's right, but I think this [Understanding] skill can make learning magic and spell easier.
"I don't think I need one."
Krestan looks at me with disbelief.
"I don't want to give you a lesson that will take a lot of time for you to understand. Don't waste my time."
I stare at him and sigh.
"You sure whine a lot for someone who murdered thousands of people, huh?"
Krestan clicks his tongue and then scratches his head.
"Fine, whatever."

Now I got everything that I need. I know that this is the best way to learn magic and spell since Krestan is still the strongest Spellcaster in the game. Well, at least at this current timeline.
When I'm about to open my mouth, a notification appears in front of me.

I look at those notifications with my mouth wide open. Krestan is staring at me with disbelief and I think he sees everything that is happening with me right now.
[Krestan is interested in your achievement.]
[Affinity towards Trevor increased by 5%]
[Krestan Glowglens (5%)]
"What is happening right now? How did you..."
Krestan shakes his head.
"Is that what happened when you absorbed the power from the gemstone?"
I nod my head and am still overwhelmed by the things I received.
"Do you know where are the others [Ulsur Gemstone] at?"
Krestan shakes his head.
"I have no idea. But I heard from my master that he knows someone who had the other gemstone."
I'm humming with understanding.
"I need those..."
Krestan is rubbing his chin and then looks at me.
"We might discover something beyond our imagination if we found all the gemstone..."
I raise my eyebrow.
"We? Are you saying that you want to get in into this?"
Krestan crosses his arms and nods.
"Of course! Do you have any idea what we might get from those gemstones? We will be the strongest people in Orion!"
I look at him and wondering if this is a good idea to bring Krestan into this, I don't want to make him stronger and would threaten the people of Orion again. But on the other hand, he would be a great asset since he might have hints on where the rest of the gemstones are from his master's story.
Krestan then lifts his index finger.
"I will teach you everything that I know, and I will allow you to enter this place from now on."
I look at Azrael and then he climbs up my shoulder.
"He might be useful for you, Master."
I nod and then look at Krestan.
"Well then, let's work together."
I offer my hand for a handshake and then he immediately grabs my hand.
"We will discover the hidden world of knowledge!"
