Simply explaining it, this skill allowed one to turn mana into matter. When it was a part of the skill known as [Summons from another world], along with the catalog, it allowed Dream to summon all kinds of different objects. As long as he had enough mana, there was basically no limit to what he could summon.Now, the skill had been given to him in its most basic form. To use it, all Dream had to do was pour mana into the skill and visualize what he wanted to create. Visualizing all the little details of an object was extremely easy with the catalog in his mind space. With that, he could conjure anything he wanted from thin air. However, not only had Dream refrained from doing this for many years, but he refrained from studying the skill itself.Dream knew that once he started studying the skill, he wouldn't be able to stop. This was the most mystical skill he ever had, and cracking its secrets was too alluring to him. Dream knew this, so up until now, he had been making preparations.
After hearing what Luna wanted, Dream could only sigh. He had indeed spoken of opening a school, but that was years ago. He hadn't really entertained the idea anymore as his studies were more important.At the same time though, he figured he could enjoy it. It wasn't often that he could pass on his knowledge. There wasn't anyone who could understand a majority of the things he studied anyway. While he didn't think anybody on Earth would be able to, he would at least be able to deepen their knowledge. That was fulfilling in its own way.And it wasn't like he cared much for withholding his knowledge. He had already released many of his understandings to the public. However, there were some things he wouldn't release the knowledge for. His nanite tech was one of these things. That was world ending technology should it get used wrong.So long as he didn't directly talk about it though, he wasn't worried about it being replicated. That technology was only created after he touched upon the
For the next few months, Dream continued to give lectures every few days. The down time in between lectures was so everyone could process the information, coming back with even more questions than before. They also asked more specific questions, and Dream had to elaborate on a variety of subjects, giving mathematical evidence and logical reasoning.It was like he was a repository of all knowledge in the universe. Dream was a single open book that all the students had to flip through as best they could, getting as much out of him as possible about all kinds of different topics. It seemed like there was never enough time for him to speak.Meanwhile, the outside world was constantly breaking down every word he said. As soon as everyone realized that he knew what he was talking about, they took a nose dive into the pool of knowledge he spilled, analyzing every detail and criticizing every angle. Academics from all around the globe applied his knowledge in experiments, seeking to confirm i
Dream didn't spend much time shuttling through space before coming to a stop and beginning another session of study.The first thing he did was further utilize [Arcane Transmutation]. To study the process of transmutation more, he naturally needed to observe it. Like this, he was able to quickly solidify his knowledge of the process.After handling it a bit more, Dream was able to use [Dimensional Tunneling], [Particle Manipulation], and [Arcane Transmutation] in conjunction to ascend either matter or energy, turning it into mana or flux. He figured out ways to increase efficiency, making it less costly on his soul energy. The soul powered everything from moving mana to enchanting, but the energy wasn't unlimited. It could be said that all people, all souls, were merely batteries by which all magic was powered.Only, this logic wouldn't remain forever. Dream was overturning it every day.Physical energy could be converted to flux, effectively meaning matter could affect mana by transf
[...Jeez.]Seeing all the energy control notifications, Sophia couldn't even say anything. Truthfully though, she wasn't amazingly impressed. Dream had already moved on to manipulating dots that comprised all of energy and matter. He could already manipulate all different types of energy. He even developed technology around it like his nanites. It was only now that he got the skills for it.Without much thought, Sophia integrated all these skills under [Particle Manipulation]. Nothing changed when this completed, the skill still just sitting there at MAX level. She nodded at this. [Particle Manipulation] was a far more advanced skill than the energy control skills. Most energy came in the form of particles anyway like photons or bosons or gluons.After these notifications, Dream continued to float there for a long while. Eventually though, he zoned in."Sophia... Did you feel that?"[No, I didn't. What happened?]Sophia shook her head inwardly. She knew something had happened with him
Gradually, the day for the portal to arrive approached. Sophia waited anxiously while Dream buried his nose in study.He solidified his theories about science. Ever since Dream touched the concepts of Ethereal Force and Physical Reality, he felt his understandings of physics and magic rise, especially when he actively studied them. It was like he could easily discover how they worked. This was definitely those concepts at play.Not only that, but they directly boosted his energy regeneration. This naturally meant his soul was stronger overall since it had to support such regeneration. Finally, when Dream looked at his mind space, he could faintly see two shimmering stars at the highest heights. These were the concepts he touched. They were the two tiny wisps he left as a mark on them.From these wisps came boundless power, but he wasn't sure how to tap into it. It was like a door he couldn't cross, forever teasing him with the temptations of what was inside.During this time of wait,
By the 7 day mark within the chaotic void, everyone's bubble had shrunk by half, only a few inches from their bodies. Iris's was even lesser, but Dream found that she could actually use her [Gluttony] skill to eat the power of the void. This had shocked him, but it was a welcome surprise.With Melody's suit reinforcing her bubble, she was also able to hold out. As for Alice, while she could slow the destruction, she couldn't resist it. Her's was gradually pierced into, forcing her suit to manifest and help out.Luna and Dream were the best ones off. Dream had his supplies of aether and could tunnel through the void even without the portal. As for Luna, she could reinforce the space with her orderly powers, fighting the power of chaos.But it was clear they needed to do something. When the 8th day hit, Dream talked to Luna."Help Alice. I'll try and merge your bubbles.""Okay."Luna nodded. The next moment, Dream's power reached through the void. He had to consume tons of aether and en
"Charge!!""Let's go!!""Fight them!"The red army moved, rushing forward to their enemies. The blue army responded at the same time. Arrows, spells, and even people's weapons came shooting through the sky. Waves of dense mana flooded forth, threatening to destroy anything in its way.Dream, who was in the middle of this, frowned. One of these people would be nothing to him, but there were hundreds of thousands. These attacks would collide with him in between."Stay on me."Dream covered himself and Melody in his Will as she moved close. The next moment, metal flooded from his body, covering the two up in a diamond shaped pyramid. Dream enchanted the metal, reinforcing it.*BOOM*Then, the attacks collided. A mass of mana crashed down upon Dream's pyramid, washing over it. This was an insane amount of mana and power. Luckily, most of it was deflected, and he didn't even use much energy."We're moving."The next moment, the pyramid was taken down. Dream grabbed Melody before warping sp
