While Ren Isana was pondering what to do with the Flügel, Jibril ran straight up to him, her face flushed with fanatical excitement. "Ren Isana, can we share the things we obtained this time? Especially that [Third Magic]!!"
Hearing this, a flash of surprise crossed Ren Isana's eyes. "You acquired the [Third Magic]? If you can actually complete it, then go ahead and share it. It's not exactly an easy thing to master. Have everyone organize all the knowledge you obtained and transcribe it later."
"Alright, got it. I'll sort it all out. Tsk, tsk, Avant Heim's library is going to need an expansion!" Jibril agreed immediately, her mood soaring.
A brilliant idea had just sparked in her mind: completely expanding Avant Heim's library to eventually build the largest magic library in the world. Just thinking about it made Jibril's eyes sparkle.
She felt it was entirely feasible and was certain the other Flügel would be highly interested. Having made up her mind, she decided to bring it up with the others shortly.
"Regarding the [Third Magic], if you acquired it yourselves, you might be able to realize it. But if it's simply shared, it might not work out. I don't know how many of you acquired similar concepts, so you'll have to discuss and explore these things amongst yourselves!" Ren Isana looked at Jibril, having no intention of interfering too much.
He wasn't surprised in the least that someone had obtained the [Third Magic]. After all, he had completely drained the Root. It was even possible that others had acquired the other True Magics. If they could make them a reality, it would be a great thing.
Even if they couldn't, it didn't matter. Once the Type-Moon world was completely drained and brought over in the future, Ren Isana would have plenty of opportunities to study it. He was confident Pandora wouldn't be stingy with those resources.
Especially since returning, Ren Isana noticed that his world authority was still active; Pandora hadn't taken it back. In other words, he could still use this world authority to do a great many things.
This was quite interesting. Miss Pandora was truly generous to willingly leave these privileges with him.
If he wanted to, Ren Isana could absolutely use this authority to break through to Tier 10 right now, but there was no need for that. However, he *could* use it to look up a wealth of information regarding the realms beyond Tier 10.
Even if he was forging his own path using the Dao of the World, there were bound to be similarities, right? Ren Isana was incredibly curious about what lay in the higher tiers.
With these thoughts in mind, Ren Isana chatted with Jibril and the others for a bit before tapping into the authority Pandora had given him to seek out the information he wanted.
The moment he accessed the authority, Pandora knew immediately. She didn't mind, though. Let Ren Isana do whatever he wanted. This child had helped her so much; what was wrong with spoiling him a little?
In fact, if Ren Isana was willing, she would gladly make him the spokesperson of the world and lend him her power unconditionally. After all, he was more than qualified.
But she figured he probably wouldn't be willing. This child's future wasn't confined to a single world; he was destined to step out into the wider multiverse. Right now, he was merely at the starting line.
Pandora didn't pay too much attention to Ren Isana's actions, shifting her focus back to their massive haul. She had already processed the Heroic Spirits, and soon, her world would construct a brand-new Throne of Heroes.
As for the fact that she had practically stolen everything right out from under Gaia and Alaya, she felt absolutely zero psychological burden. Besides, how could something like world evolution be called stealing? This was simply putting resources to good use!
While Pandora was busy, Ren Isana used his world authority to gather the information he sought. After briefly organizing the data, he fell into deep thought.
The information regarding the realms beyond Tier 10 was actually quite broad. The minimum threshold was being a planet buster. As long as you reached Tier 10, you could easily shatter a planet—something Ren Isana could already do.
This meant that although Ren Isana was currently at Tier 9, his combat power had already reached Tier 10. It was just that he hadn't fully walked his own path yet. However, there were vast differences in strength even within Tier 10.
After all, it depended on *what* kind of planet you were blowing up, didn't it? The absolute minimum standard was calculated using Earth as a baseline, and the higher you went, the more drastically things changed. Some planets were unfathomably massive.
Planets, stars, and the like all fell under the "celestial body" category, making the post-Tier 10 scaling quite complex. To put it simply and brutally in terms of combat power: anything capable of destroying a planet fell within the Tier 10 calculation.
As for Tier 11... the minimum standard seemed to be the ability to destroy a galaxy. And this didn't mean a solar system—it meant a galaxy on the scale of the Milky Way. One could only imagine how massive the entire Milky Way was, and Tier 11 used that as its benchmark.
Then came Tier 12, which used the entire universe as its standard. The ability to destroy an entire universe—Ren Isana couldn't even begin to fathom that level of power. A force capable of destroying a universe was truly equivalent to the power to destroy a world.
As for those anime characters claiming to have "world-destroying power"? *Don't make me laugh.* They were just wiping the surface of a single planet. That didn't count as destroying a world at all. On Pandora's side, "destroying a world" meant literally obliterating the entire universe into dust!
Only that could be considered destroying a world. After all, a single planet wasn't the only place one could live; you could just move to another planet and keep surviving. Especially once you mastered spatial abilities, changing planets was actually quite easy.
Not to mention, with Pandora's power, relocating the inhabitants of a planet to a new home was a breeze. She could easily terraform Mars or Venus to make them habitable.
*I guess you could understand it as Tier 11 being an Emanator, and Tier 12 being an Aeon. That's the general idea. If we put it in Little Garden terms, it'd be equivalent to a 3-digit or 2-digit entity?* Ren Isana muttered to himself, finally getting the gist of it.
It really was simple and brutal. However, it seemed these classifications were all confined to a single universe and didn't touch upon the multiverse yet. But this was enough. After all, the multiverse was still far too distant a concept for him.
He hadn't even broken through to Tier 10 yet, so why worry about things so far away? Only at Tier 12 would one be considered at the absolute pinnacle of a single universe. Tier 13 was likely where the multiverse came into play.
It was just that the gap between these stages was far too massive. Even if Ren Isana broke through to Tier 10, reaching Tier 11 would probably take an immense amount of time. He would just have to take it step by step.
Beyond Tier 10, everything came down to the power of laws. Ren Isana still had a long way to go. He would just have to see when he could finally take that step!
While Ren Isana was lost in thought, Avant Heim had arrived at its designated location. Snapping back to reality, Ren Isana looked out and saw Nexus Island. It was already night, and the island's barrier had been raised.
Standing up, Ren Isana suddenly remembered something. He hurriedly released Tiamat, who had been resting inside his inner space this whole time. Mama Tiamat was still tucked away in there.
When Ren Isana let her out, he froze. Tiamat was currently holding Beatrice in a deeply affectionate, motherly embrace, while Beatrice wore an expression of utter frustration and conflict.
Beatrice didn't know if she should lean into this maternal love. After all, the aura radiating from Tiamat was incredibly comforting, exactly like a mother's. But this woman wasn't her mother, which left her incredibly conflicted!
However, the moment she realized she had been brought out into the open, she instantly made up her mind. She had her pride to maintain, after all! Beatrice immediately broke free from Tiamat's embrace and dove straight back into the inner space.
Before leaving, she shot a fierce glare at Ren Isana. *Honestly, not even giving her a heads-up!* She had almost lost face entirely, so it was better to just retreat back into her own library!
Seeing Beatrice's reaction, the corners of Ren Isana's mouth curled up slightly. What an untruthful child. Mama Tiamat was so affectionate, why not just accept the hugs? Look how disappointed Mama Tiamat looked now that she was gone.
"Tiamat..." Just as Ren Isana opened his mouth to say something to her, Pandora descended once more and snatched Tiamat away right on the spot.
"Let me borrow her for a sec!!" Pandora came and went in a flash. In the blink of an eye, Tiamat vanished from in front of him, leaving Ren Isana standing there in stunned silence.
Alright then. It seemed he didn't need to arrange anything for her. Ren Isana shook his head, not dwelling on it. He decided to head out first. Since they were already back, he might as well return to the dorms.
"Jibril, I'm heading back first. Contact me if anything comes up. You all stay here for now. Don't go running around; wait until I have everything arranged." Ren Isana turned to look at Jibril and the others.
The group of Flügel was currently staring longingly at Nexus Island in the distance. It was obvious they all wanted to go down and play, but Ren Isana wasn't allowing it just yet.
"Got it, hurry up and go. Let us know when you've got things sorted out, we want to go down and play!" Although Jibril felt a bit disappointed, she didn't push it. The fact that Ren Isana had brought them to this world was already fantastic.
If she insisted on following him down, she was afraid he might just throw her back to their old world, which would be a massive loss. It was better to just follow his arrangements. Whatever Ren Isana said, they would do.
Seeing how obedient she was, Ren Isana nodded in satisfaction. He then turned his gaze toward Da Vinci and Morgan, who were currently chatting with Think Nilvalen. "Da Vinci-chan, Morgan, we're heading back!"
Hearing Ren Isana's call, the group immediately stopped their conversation and walked over. Da Vinci spoke up first, "Bring Think along too. We were just chatting, and I need her help with a few things~!"
Jibril and the other Flügel all turned to stare at Think. *You sneaky little... taking a roundabout strategy to get what you want, huh?* If they had known, they would have done the same thing! If they had just talked magic with the casters, could they have gone down too?
In that moment, many of the Flügel looked as if they had just missed out on the opportunity of a lifetime. *That girl totally scored! Dammit!!*
Although Ren Isana was a bit surprised, he glanced at Think and didn't object. This girl's head was probably entirely filled with magic right now. Even if she went down, she'd likely just bury herself in a library, so bringing her along wasn't an issue.
It was only the other Flügel that worried him. It wasn't that Ren Isana didn't want them to go down; he was just terrified that this flock of little troublemakers would cause a massive disaster. So, for now, it was best to leave them up here until he could make proper inquiries!
