Lord of the Truth

Although the market was not far from the restaurant, Robin decided to take the long road and looked around it all the way, astonished by everything and anything, occasionally he stops to buy different fruits and simple items and examined them with excitement...

The restaurant and the walk to the market were just a chance for Robin to see more things with his new ability.

The two arrived at the central market about an hour later, and it was a one worthy of Bradley's Pearl city... many times larger than that of Jura's, filled with shops of various sizes and shapes, where guards and powerful experts were scattered like ants, the small merchants spread out sheets on the ground and shouted loudly for their merchandise, hoping that They collect enough money to rent one of those shops one day...

Robin also noticed that there are several huge platforms on which large numbers of humans of both sexes and different ages are stacked, stripped of their clothes, and in front of each group a person calls out their qualities and prices, "Come closer! Come to this site, I have everything you want! I have the most beautiful and ugliest of women! The strongest of men and the weakest of them, if you have a little or a lot of money, you will not walk from here without a slave the satisfy you"

... It was clear that these were the platforms of slaves.

Robin paused in front of one of the platforms for a while, looking at a boy a little younger than him, and mired in thought... Then nodded and walked, "When we get back to the institution, ask for me if we can bring slaves into our personal house, and if it's permissible, ask about the maximum number of slaves allowed for each student"

Caesar did not understand why would Robin ask about such a thing, they had been on their own all their lives and did not need anyone's help, much less something like slaves! but he nodded and did not try to argue.

Everything went smoothly, they found a huge store selling all kinds of wood, so Robin bought a little of each kind.. but the final quantity was mind-blowing, when the two of them stood in front of the large pile, Robin looked at Caesar in a meaningful way, Caesar's eyes widened and he took two steps back "OVER MY DEAD BODY! how the hell should I carry all of this? Do you want to kill me?"

Robin shook his head, "youth of these days are useless. uncle, I'll buy a wooden cart too. How much is your account?" Robin gave one gold coin and a few silver coins for everything, then he and Caesar, who was pulling the wooden cart beside him, left towards their house.

-----------------------------

Sitting downstairs in front of large amounts of different wood that Caesar had categorized into piles of each, Robin frowned, "Alright then, I will start looking into the major fire heavenly law as I train to the second level of energy cultivation at the same time, don't you dare come down and disturb me! ... unless the house catches on fire because of my research, you are allowed to come and help me put it out... or put me out.. well, I trust you will know what to do then, dismiss."

Caesar chuckled then went up to the second floor. when Robin knew he was alone at last, he brought a handful of wood from the first pile and set it on fire then sat.. and watched. Patterns of fire were evident in the flames and distributed in different degrees of intensity, the densest near the wood until it disappeared completely at the furthest.

He did not move for a few days where he finished on the first woodpile, so he sighed from the wonders of the world and shook his head 'before, I was like a blind walking in a strange space' Then he went to get something to eat and came back to train for the second level so that Caesar would not be far ahead of him, he kept training as he consumed the energy stones for seven days, cutting about half the distance to the second level in one go, before returning to complete his research on the next pile of wood, which was more succulent than the previous one.

Robin decided to bring different types of wood for one purpose, which is to try out which type of wood will produce a flame with clearer patterns to make it easier for him to search, and if they are all the same, that's okay too..

But after he sat in front of the small succulent pile and lit it while eating a chicken leg... his features quickly changed from anticipation... to shock! 'The patterns..they're different!!' He shouted in his mind.

"No, no, that's not supposed to happen. What's going on here?!" Robin said as he got closer to the burning pile of wood.. Most of the pattern in front of him was identical to the one before it, but there were slight changes in several places.

How is it possible that the same law has several versions of patterns?! It is known that every path had numerous branches called minor laws, and these branches certainly had different patterns, but now he is looking at just pure fire.. not sparks, heat, melting or evaporation or..etc~ The pattern is not supposed to change for the same thing!

Or at least that's what he thought theoretically before he conducted the experiments... After a period of astonishment, he brought the chicken's leg in his hand towards the fire until the flames enveloped it, and as he expected.. the flame patterns around the chicken's feet have changed.

He quickly got up to pick out small batches of all the wood and put them separately then lit them all at once, fetched his bed-sheet, bread, papers, and a few other random items then lit them separately as well... and in each pile, the patterns were a little different!

"Impossible… it's Impossible for the Flame Emperor to have seen such a fundamental difference when he announced that he had mastered the fire major heavenly law! at the most, he gained some enlightenment from observing *fire* and its actions and truths for thousands of years. the problem is that the fire outwardly seems identical, but what I see now Denies that completely! does that mean...The fire major heavenly law that the flame Empire Built its foundation around... is incomplete?!"

'No! Not only that, What about the rest of the major heavenly laws that have been declared completed? Is it only relatively complete?' When Robin thought about this, he sat down and started to sweat... the sweating was Probably from the huge fire around him that reached the ceiling... But he considered the sweat a sign of tension and focus.

"Is this what the all-seeing big brother meant when he said that the planet is still nascent and that I take things slowly when I see patterns?

What a pressure... what a responsibility... WHAT A THRILL!! Hahahaha I've got the whole world to explore with no strings attached, when I'm done with it won't be nascent anymore! HAHAHA" Robin said jumping excitedly as Caesar tried to rescue what was left of the living room.
