Souta continued surveying the chamber, a hint of interest appearing in his eyes.
He had already confirmed that the Forbidden Spells Armante had used were not of his own creation. Instead, Armante had learned them from ancient spellbooks.
An inheritance left behind by a mage capable of creating Forbidden Spells.
Souta was no ignorant mage.
He understood better than most how difficult it was to create a Forbidden Spell.
The foundation of every Forbidden Spell lay in the countless Tier 1, Tier 2, and Tier 3 Spells that came before it.
Although Souta had mastered a vast number of spells, even he was still incapable of creating a Forbidden Spell from scratch.
"So the President discovered these spellbooks and learned from these books..."
"These books weren't written by him."
Souta turned his attention to a stack of notes resting on a nearby table.
He walked over, picked them up, and began reading.
"As expected..."
The contents surprised even him.
