CHAPTER 581: CHAPTER 262 CARVING

"Carving"

"A profession that carves Magic Runes onto stones. I believe that everyone present has more or less heard of Magic Runes."

Everyone nodded.

Even if they haven’t heard of it, they might have noticed it.

"Magic Runes can be simply understood as a form of a simple spell.

Essentially, magic is merely a collection of runes.

During forging, magic power is infused into them, making the items sharper and tougher, invisibly using Magic Runes.

In the process of Alchemy, these runes are often used and encountered.

However, when these professions use Magic Runes, they generally use magic power to guide and control the specific form of the runes, which remain unseen and untouchable.

Carving, however, is about manifesting the abstract and giving form to these Magic Runes, carving them into visible patterns."

Kana’s explanation was somewhat brief.

But most people could understand, as they often felt it when expending magic power.

"Like this."

With these words, Kana revealed several stones of varying sizes in his hand, all polished very smoothly.

Yet, their shapes were slightly different.

Rectangular, square, circular, diamond-shaped and even some other more unusual shapes.

"For instance, this one is called Campfire."

With a flick of magic power, Kana lifted one of the circular stones.

And then activated it.

At once, a palm-sized flame burned steadily around the stone.

Though simple, everyone could clearly observe.

This stone seemed capable of burning for a significant duration. Putting some wood or other flammable materials around it would easily start a campfire.

Logical, portable, and applicable in extreme situations.

"This one, named Purification."

Kana picked up a diamond-shaped one.

"Throw it into dirty water, it can purify bacteria and grime, filtering out clean water."

Kana went on to showcase more.

Such as a carved stone that could emit a peculiar sound, and one that could detect the concentration of elements nearby.

Others could guide direction, or sound an alarm upon touch.

These all fall under the category of carving.

After a simple demonstration, Kana said, "Among the professions, after taking this secondary profession, you should be able to skillfully carve them within a month.

In other words, they belong to the 1~3 level output of this profession.

With level progression, you can even combine numerous carved stones for desired effects.

When promoted to a master, you can carve more runes onto a giant rock for direct effects."

The only challenge is the need to learn and master more Magic Runes.

Even the Night Watchers, blessed ones, have limits on the number of Magic Runes they can master, depending on individual talent and preferences.

That’s why Kana hopes to create this profession as soon as possible.

The sooner it starts, the more people can develop various directions.

Then there will be enough to combine runes from all directions.

The biggest characteristic of this profession is its cooperative potential with many other professions, achieving combined effects.

It’s more about one’s unique ideas.

With Kana’s detailed introduction, everyone gained an understanding of this secondary profession.

Maxim was conflicted.

Before he thought of choosing Beast Taming.

But now, attracted to Carving, no doubt he was drawn to this secondary profession.

As a centuries-old Elf Caster, he indeed studied this aspect, understanding its synergy with his profession for greater effects.

Maxim wasn’t alone.

Among the present, many from magic professions were tempted to pursue this path.

Including Bobo.

She essentially determined to take this secondary profession.

"These are among the secondary professions you can choose from. After the meeting ends, think about which one you wish to pursue.

For some time, we won’t divert more resources to secondary professions. If none appeal, you’ll have to wait longer."

The current secondary professions met Kana’s expectations. Given the current scale and capacity, they can’t fully realize their potential yet.

The available ones are sufficient, forming the foundation of the Night Watchers, and that’s enough.

If more are to be added later, it’ll be when no more fragments are lacking.

With that, Kana placed another fragment on the table.

Looking at this piece, everyone shifted their focus from previous thoughts.

Maxim couldn’t help but ask, "Do you want to make another wish? Such wishes might put a lot of stress on the spirit, right?

Why not take a break? No need to rush today."

The others also nodded, persuading.

Considering Kana’s previous struggle, a day more or less wouldn’t matter much. Resting and doing it tomorrow seemed equally fine.

With a soft smiling gesture, Kana shook his head.

"No need to worry, this wish is much simpler than the last, it won’t drain my spirit too much."

Hearing this, the crowd refrained from further persuasion.

Kana wouldn’t deceive on such matters needlessly.

It was indeed the truth.

The previous wish built secondary professions, requiring considerably more spirit and linking detailed structures to the world’s consciousness.

Quite meticulous and more when creating three at once.

Moreover, Kana hadn’t fully acquired all like Tailor.

These required more spirit.

The upcoming wish, Identification, was less demanding since Kana already possessed this ability, modifying the template with ease.

This was far simpler.

With that in mind, Kana lifted the fragment.

Closing his eyes calmly.

Skillfully linking his spirit to the sea of world consciousness.

Under guidance, the stone once again dissipates into gentle golden light.

The wish was soon fulfilled.

This time, Kana felt little discomfort, just a slight forehead swelling, which was quite normal.

When Kana opened his eyes.

The wish had been granted.

Facing the crowd’s gaze, Kana smiled and said, "Now, let me introduce you all to the new system added to the blessings of Night Watchers.

Slightly complex, Bobo, take note."
