"prime carter," i greeted the old man as i opened the door.
"can i come in?" he asked.
"sure," i replied. i am quite curious about the man coming here; it wasn't long ago; he had returned from the small realm.
we entered the living room and sat across from each other.
"it's quite a beautiful abode you have," he said, looking around the artful living room. it is filled with artful pieces with frescos on the ceiling and the wall.
"thank you. the original owner would have been very pleased. if he had heard that," i replied, surprising the man.
i am not wrong. the person had brought these art pieces from outside and spent an insane amount of time arranging them all perfectly.
it's quite wonderful.
though not to my taste. i like things a little homey, where i would feel like resting when i enter.
"are you always this blunt?" he asked. "when i want to," i replied. to that, the old man shook his head with a smile before his expression became serious.
"you must be wondering why i have come to you," he said. "it is one of the questions in my head," i replied.
"i came here to invite you to my organization. you can join it or stay as the guests, without any responsibility," he stated in his intention.
saying i am surprised would be an understatement. i am so surprised that i didn't even hide it.
"i have to say, it is unexpected," i replied. to that old man smiled a little.
"there is nothing unexpected about it. you are a powerful prime despite the problem you are having. most importantly, you are an advance grade runemaster,"
"i don't think there is any prime who is better than you in the world," he said.
his words cleared his intention. still, i am surprised.
i looked at the inheritance my clones were working on before sitting down and closing my eyes.
it's time for me to comprehend the laws. i want to finish that rune.
i close my eyes and focused my constitution. after that, it took me a minute before the vastness of law came in front of me.
it is so vast that it is incomprehensible.
i didn't try to focus on it all instead, try to comprehend the part i was thinking about. it took a while, but it appeared in front of me, and i started to unravel the mysteries of it.
they are vast, not as vast as the whole law, but still vast.
even here, i focused on the smallest. focusing on everything would make me tired within a minute and wouldn't get me what i wanted.
hours passed, and i remained unmoving. swimming in mysteries of the law, i am comprehending.
finally, i opened my eyes, not because i was finished, but because my head started to hurt.
i rested for a while before raising my finger up and gently drawing the rune.
it took me only a few seconds to finish it. when i did, there was a smile on my serious face.
"i did it," i said with a smile.
this is the first law rune; i was able to comprehend. i would need to comprehend a thousand. millions in the future, but i did not feel too worried.
i basked in my success while looking at the powerful rune in front of me.
it is really powerful. representing my comprehension.
if i used runes as powerful as this one in my inheritance. i would become tremendously
powerful. though, i can't use too many of these runes.
they are powerful but require a lot of energy. they also have a much larger weight.
if i used them in place of the current ancient runes. i will not be able to sustain my armor for more than a second despite all the power it might be able to give me.
