After a brief moment of shock, Renjiro started to worry.
He was afraid that the gift this beautiful goddess-sister wanted to give him might be the kind he couldn't afford to accept.
If the rare bond of kinship they had built were to… change in nature…
Would he accept? Or refuse?
To be honest…
"Even though I know the truth behind everything… I still prefer Syr."
Thus thought the LSP deep inside.
Fortunately…
Today, Freya truly didn't have that kind of thought.
After speaking, she simply rose from her throne and walked toward the large bookshelf located right behind it.
She reached up and pulled out a book so thick it could probably be used as a brick.
When she returned and stood before Renjiro,
"This is…?"
"High Grimoire."
"Cough, cough cough."
Renjiro nearly forgot how to breathe.
Forgive him for being a bit uncultured at this moment and embarrassing transmigrators everywhere… but really,
The High Grimoire was simply too precious.
Previously, it was mentioned that in a certain great magic nation, there are some ridiculously powerful people capable of making grimoires that help others awaken acquired magic.
These grimoires are divided into two types, Fixed Type and Unfixed Type.
The names are quite self-explanatory:
A Fixed-Type Grimoire contains one specific magic. The user will only awaken that single magic after using it.
And notably, the spells recorded in Fixed-Type Grimoires are never something too rare.
On one hand, people who possess rare magic wouldn't be generous enough to share it.
For example: Even though Renjiro's Genshin System could theoretically replicate magic, he would never be dumb enough to engrave Original Descent for others to learn.
On the other hand, Fixed-Type Grimoires simply cannot store spells of too high a level.
So they usually just contain things like Fireball. Long chant, unimpressive power.
Even so, the price of a single Fixed-Type Grimoire is in the tens of millions.
Meanwhile, the Unfixed-Type Grimoire is even more valuable.
Because it's created based on the structure of God's Blessing itself, allowing the user to awaken the magic most suitable for them.
In the original future of this world, Freya gave such a grimoire to a certain red-eyed rabbit boy, allowing him to awaken an almost instant-cast rapid-attack spell,
Fire Bolt.
Flaming Pineapple Head? Roasted Boruto?
Cough, cough. Anyway,
A single Unfixed-Type Grimoire is worth at least over a hundred million.
Often it's even "money cannot buy." They end up in auctions.
The Loki Familia saw one being bid up to 1,304,000,000 valis.
So,
"So that rabbit boy, when he was dirt poor, was basically swinging a two-billion-valued sword in one hand and casting a billion-valued spell with the other, cheating his way through the dungeon?"
That is what you call the author's beloved child.(leans back dramatically)
And later, Freya, disguised as Syr, gifted him an even more expensive protective charm, and even paid a massive penalty fine just to protect his chastity…
"No wonder fans call her the 'Behind-the-Scenes Mom.'"
Renjiro couldn't help but sigh.
But right now…
"All of that combined, multiplied tenfold, still can't compare to this."
Looking at the "little gift" Freya casually handed over, Renjiro lifted his trembling hands slowly, carefully receiving it.
There was no doubt:
The High Grimoire was far more precious than any Unfixed-Type Grimoire.
Because it could no longer be made.
Every existing copy was a disappearing relic.
And its effect was worthy of its rarity,
[Chance to expand the Magic Slot]
Yes, something every magic-capable adventurer dreams of.
Renjiro had misunderstood something before.
He once thought that everyone who bore a God's Blessing had up to three magic slots.
Even the Nine Hell and the Thousand Elf followed that rule.
But in truth,
Most people are born with zero magic slots.
The "three-slot limit" is simply the absolute limit of all mortal races.
For example, the protagonist red-eyed rabbit only has one magic slot.
That's why he could never learn a second spell after Fire Bolt.
Even Freya didn't give him more grimoires after that.
Meanwhile, people like Riveria and Lefiya are geniuses so extraordinary that even the high mages of the great magic nation are envious.
And now,
"Give it a try."
Freya gestured with a graceful motion.
"Let me see whether it can draw out your true (soul) radiance."
At this moment, the goddess who ruled over the strongest familia spoke with sincere anticipation.
