Chapter 631: The Hottest Commodity: Xiao Han!
After I finished explaining the concept of the Reincarnation Rebirth Spell, Mei Linde was the first to propose to join and expressed her willingness to assist me in perfecting this spell.
Following her were several witches who were watching the show from the side.
Indeed, they were not witches specializing in the soul realm topic, nor were they adept in resurrection spells, but they were willing to help.
Help with what?
They offered to help create the spellbook, or rather, to modify the spellbook.
They would transform the Resurrection Spell’s spellbook into a derivative spellbook, the “Reincarnation Rebirth Spellbook.”
They were Extraordinary Witches, and as those who mastered the true editing technique, they were quite skilled in this area.
In fact, I didn’t necessarily need their help; I had replaced original spellbooks with derivative spells before. The Great Knowledge Tree was born that way, transforming from the Knowledge Tree, which itself evolved from the Memory Shelf spellbook.
However, having these witches assist would undoubtedly bring me tremendous convenience.
Because they were genuinely curious and concerned about how the terrifying spell of “Reincarnation Rebirth” could arise in the Witch Academy!
Within the Witch Academy, studying the Great Spellbook is not the only research topic.
The birth of some significant spells is equally noteworthy.
However, after understanding and studying, the Principal and the group of witch sisters found that the “Reincarnation Rebirth” spell I constructed was somewhat different from the genuine Reincarnation Rebirth spellbook. Mine was more akin to… a simplified version.
It even seemed that only I could use it after its creation, as the external techniques and personal usage threshold were simply too high.
The genuine Reincarnation Rebirth spellbook could be used with almost zero thresholds, able to resurrect a person without needing spellcasting materials, even in cases where the body was entirely destroyed.
Such a spellbook, which required no thresholds, no materials, and no demands, truly represented the perfect state that the craft of spellbook creation pursued.
However, this spellbook did have one stringent condition: the magic power required for casting had to reach units of ten thousand. According to what the Principal and others understood, this resurrection spell consumed nearly 500,000 magic power just to resurrect an ordinary person!
500,000! And not payable in installments—it was fifty times my current magic source!
But at least this spellbook had no thresholds, no demands, and no materials required for casting, which represented a complete spellbook.
It’s just that… my current concept wasn’t quite perfect yet, so there were still many extra requirements. At least one thing could be confirmed: I can afford to use it now.
For me, the low usage threshold was exchanged as a prerequisite with other techniques.
True Reincarnation Rebirth spells were exceedingly rare and had limits far exceeding regular resurrection spells, along with high lower limits as well.
Despite this, it did not dampen the enthusiasm of Mei Linde and the witch sisters.
Because with my foundation, this spellbook had a promising future, and what was now lacking was the inability to incorporate my techniques into this simplified version of the Reincarnation Rebirth spell due to the true editing technology.
The prerequisite for the true editing technique in creating spellbooks is a complete mastery of all techniques needed to produce the spellbook.
So, there was only one way to fully refine the Reincarnation Rebirth spell: I needed to become an Extraordinary Witch and learn the true editing technique.
Of course, they could learn my techniques.
But putting aside whether I was willing to teach, even just the ability of Self-Awakened Body Cultivation, the Witch Academy wouldn’t have any candidates…
Let alone my Floating World-level Spirit Vision, which provides information and other means.
With the establishment of the “Reincarnation Rebirth Spellbook Creation Team” temporarily set up in Principal Mei’s office, many witches were drawn to watch.
Although it wasn’t a Great Spellbook, the temporary group being formed in Sister Mei’s office was enough to attract quite a few witches looking for fun.
Not to mention that this group consisted of a Witch Academy Head, a Teaching Assistant from the Witch Academy, and several Extraordinary Witch instructors who didn’t even possess a Resurrection Spellbook.
A group of such witches creating a spellbook for a Reincarnation Rebirth spell the Witch Academy didn’t have was indeed intriguing to them.
In fact… most witches are quite proud, and many have an inflated view of their own abilities. This is evident as some witches, upon arriving in the Main World, sought to join the Great Spellbook Creation Team.
Many witches looked down on ordinary resurrection spells, with some not even owning a Resurrection Spellbook, at most only using it to enrich their spellbook collection.
Learning to manually create a Resurrection Spell was sufficient; furthermore, standard resurrection spells couldn’t be used on themselves. Normally, as long as they had a friend who could cast the resurrection spell, it would suffice.
However, they were very interested in the “Reincarnation Rebirth” resurrection spell with its own unique name.
This phenomenon is somewhat similar to women in the ordinary world pursuing branded goods; the more prestigious the name, the more it’s favored by witches.
But spells are not luxury items, and the more renowned the spellbook, the more powerful it tends to be; most of the time, this is an undeniable truth.
Yet, for those “watching the fun” witches, they could only observe in silence when facing Principal Mei, not daring to say much.
Respect for spells and techniques is common knowledge the witches adhere to, even if the main technical personnel researching the Reincarnation Rebirth spellbook was merely a Little Witch.
The creation of this spellbook took over two days. In other words, this was just a modification based on the Resurrection Spellbook, which was already quite simple for Mei Linde, yet it still consumed several days.
In comparison to a basic spellbook that might take several days to complete, this efficiency could be deemed remarkably fast.
As the spellbook awaiting perfection was finally completed, joyous celebratory sounds erupted from Principal Mei’s office!
Compared to the distant Great Spellbook, it was these unique and rare spellbooks that witches frequently encountered.
Now that the Reincarnation Rebirth spellbook was finished, the first thing to do was, of course, to give Yu Meng a new body!
“By the way, I was so busy with this spellbook that I forgot about this matter. I’m sharing this with you; it’s all the information regarding the original template for creating a temporary body for Yu Meng. Now you can use the Reincarnation Rebirth to completely record their appearance information on their Mimetic Souls,” Mei Linde said.
“Thank you, Sister Mei～”
I quickly expressed my gratitude, also using the Great Knowledge to accept this segment of information.
Principal Mei didn’t actually need to waste time cooperating with me on this matter.
After I grasped these concepts, she could have handed this information over and let me handle it on my own, though achieving the current level might have taken longer, perhaps a month or two.
But she didn’t; she was even the first to step forward to help me.
After obtaining the body template for Yu Meng, I didn’t hesitate but immediately started learning and integrating it into the Reincarnation Rebirth spell.
If it were just resurrecting a person, it wouldn’t need to be so complicated. However, I also needed to transcribe Yu Meng’s life information into the essence of their lives, so it wasn’t a simple task.
Furthermore, the consumption wasn’t small, and given that my current magic source was just over ten thousand, I couldn’t finish modifying all of Yu Meng’s forms in such a short time, but the initial transformations for Yu Lan, Yu Yun, and Yu Guo could still be accomplished.
“Principal, you all are finally done～”
While I was busy crafting a body for Yu Meng, a few witches who had been waiting on the sidelines came forward.
“Uh? I remember you all are the ones from Xiao Han’s laboratory, right?” Mei Linde looked up at the few who approached her at the first moment she had finished without taking a break, probably to discuss something significant.
“Yes～ The experiment in our laboratory for condensing the Knowledge Seed from the Knowledge Tree has been fully completed! And we have conducted multiple rounds of testing and debugging these past few days, the information grading is basically all set up!”
“Really? That truly is good news.”
Upon hearing this, Mei Linde was genuinely happy since the success of the Knowledge Seed experiment represented the formal commencement of collaborative projects with other Extraordinary Academies regarding Knowledge Seeds.
“So what about mass production technology?”
“We just perfected the laboratory sample～ Also, the testing version of the Great Knowledge Seed requires Xiao Han’s assistance. I lost a bet, so I need to bring Xiao Han back～,” one of the witch sisters said with an embarrassed smile, scratching her head.
“Oh? Is that so…? Xiao Han is already so in demand now?” Mei Linde joked.
However, subjectively, she was indeed in high demand.
Unbeknownst to them, outside, there was a wave of students in the Expanding Realm at that moment looking for Teaching Assistant Xiao Han.
Because at this moment, standing on the city wall of Ninglan New City, one could visibly see the Dream Overlap Area gradually spreading over!
After a while, I brought the completely rejuvenated Yu Meng before the Principal.
“Thank you, Principal～” The three Yu Mengs waved their little hands to express their sincerest gratitude to Principal Mei.
“What adorable little ones～” Mei Linde also extended her hand to pinch these little ones. Why hadn’t she ever realized how cute they were before?
Perhaps it was because she had passed the Grand Wisdom Enlightenment Spell to others, letting them load the burden for her?
“Alright, since you’ve been here with me for several days, you should be leaving now, right? If you don’t leave soon, someone’s going to carry you back,” Mei Linde said with a smile, gesturing to a nearby witch, who was one of my laboratory witch sisters, and whom I vaguely remembered.
“Yes～ We’ve been waiting for you! The Principal was also looking to strengthen in-depth communication with other academies through the cooperation of the Knowledge Tree～”
The witch sister said while pulling me out.
Meanwhile, the other witches still remaining here surrounded Principal Mei with great enthusiasm, seeking research materials regarding the Reincarnation Rebirth spell.
These were rare spellbook research materials!
Usually, you couldn’t get a hold of this kind of thing without a bit of connection! Luckily for them, in the Main World’s Witch Academy, there wasn’t such an atmosphere, and they wouldn’t have the privilege to brazenly request.
Although they might not be able to create such a spellbook following the materials, studying related resources would still enrich their understanding and foundation.
In particular, witches researching resurrection spells were especially devoted to this!
They were the witches involved in resurrection spell research topics, but if they couldn’t create this spell, what did that mean they lacked?
They lacked ideas and inspiration and perhaps any seemingly accidental elements!
So they needed these materials desperately to help them complete their cognitive boundaries.
“Alright, alright, don’t fight over it. I will organize this material and send it to you later; however, it will only be limited to my records. Regarding the cognitive materials from Xiao Han’s perspective, I won’t publish them without Xiao Han’s permission,” Mei Linde said, seeing so many witches approaching her and shamelessly requesting.
However, she only gave her insights; this Reincarnation Rebirth spellbook was mainly guided by Xiao Han’s ideas, but they were likewise participants in the process and had learned a lot themselves.
Yet, she also understood that Xiao Han had learned a lot from this attempt as well. It was a mutual benefit and a cooperative win, what one learned depended on one’s own abilities.
She could handle her insights and share them freely, but she couldn’t make decisions for Xiao Han. Even though she felt that Xiao Han would likely make the same decision, she couldn’t speak for her because Xiao Han was no longer the Xiao Han of before. Now, Xiao Han was an officially recognized “Little Witch”!
At this moment, after being led out of the Principal’s office by the witch sister, I unexpectedly encountered someone outside.
“Teaching Assistant Xiao Han, great to see you! You really are here!”
“Uh? Who are you?” I looked at the group surrounding me as soon as I stepped out. They were not instructors but students.
“We are the students heading to the Expanding Realm. Teaching Assistant Xiao Han, we finally found you! We heard you were in the Principal’s office, so I could only wait outside. Please hurry back to the Expanding Realm!”
“What’s the matter? I still have other things to take care of. If it’s not important, don’t bother me.” I said.
“It’s like this: the surrounding Dream Overlap Area in Ninglan New City of the Expanding Realm is about to cover the outer city walls and buffer zones. If the Dream Overlap Area spreads into the urban area, the consequences will be unimaginable!”
“Is that the only reason…? Didn’t you learn the Dream Demon Spell? Instructor Elena is teaching how to manually create that spell inside the city, so why are you calling for me?” I waved my hand, appearing indifferent.
“Exactly, do you really need to bother Xiao Han for this? Don’t we have more important things to take care of?” Just as this girl was about to say something to persuade me, the instructor beside me spoke up immediately.
With her speaking up, the students became obedient right away. They dared not contradict the instructor; if even she had matters to trouble Xiao Han with, then it truly wasn’t their turn this time.
But the only one who could solve the Dream Overlap issue was that person…
“But… this…”
“Don’t waste my time with this nonsense. Don’t think I don’t know about the Expanding Realm’s situation. Isn’t it just a Dream Overlap issue? It’s not like you can’t adapt. Moreover, you’ve already learned the Dream Demon Spell created by Xiao Han. Without this, you’ll only have it tougher. If you just want to scavenge for resources in the Expanding Realm and face difficulties, will you just become a giant baby begging others?”
This witch sister spoke bluntly, reducing the girls to silence, afraid to lift their heads or even breathe heavily.
“Go back and figure out how to adapt. Xiao Han, I’m taking her. Unless she is willing, don’t expect her to assist you.”
“Y-yes! Yes!”
The girls hurriedly fled upon hearing the scolding, terrified that if they delayed, they would get another lecture. If they got marked by an instructor in such a manner, their future would likely be hampered!
“See? It’s better to refuse things you don’t want to do plainly. Students without the resolve to become Extraordinary Witches are always this disappointing; don’t give them face,” the witch sister said with a grin, even having a hint of disdain in her tone as she watched them flee.
“Thank you, Sister～” I smiled in response. However, this was my first exposure to the true attitude witches held towards students. Indeed… it was not courteous at all.
“Don’t mention it～ Let’s go, the laboratory still needs you to take charge of the situation. Our little scholar Xiao Han is a Little Witch destined to lead us in accomplishing great things!”
