Interlude 1_Mordern Saudade
Interlude 1: Around the RosemaryThe sun had just risen, ushering in a new day, and I knew that the library awaited me. I dressed in my most comfortable suit - a pair of black pants and a white shirt - and made sure not to forget my library card before leaving my room. "Kris, Gene. I am going out. Do you want anything?" I called out but was met with silence. They must have already left for work, I thought to myself. It was unusual for Kris to be up and out so early.I decided to brew myself a cup of earl grey tea, which filled my senses with its fresh aroma. As I sipped on my tea, I couldn't help but wonder how my roommates could stand that industrial coffee. Mocha or latte always made me feel too full after just half a cup.Living near my workplace gave me the luxury of enjoying breakfast at a leisurely pace. It was just half past seven, and the library would open at eight. I knew I had to leave before the streets got too crowded. I made a few

The spell requires a large amount of concentration it’s more advisable to use the earth form.Truth’s twister: The authority belongs to the fallen sepharim Lucifer, it has dimensional and time-twisting prosperity and runs on the user karma. Thus the more probability it takes to fulfill the wish, the more karma it causes in the user's life. If one inherited this authority rather than Lucifer himself, there are much more limitations as hierarchy and mana usage.The star that charmed all: The authority belongs to the fallen sepharim Lucifer, the affected victims can’t take their focus off the user and will do everything to win the user’s favor.

45_God's curse
Chapter 45: God’s blessingAs my consciousness slowly returned, I was engulfed in a suffocating darkness that seemed to seep into my very soul. The last thing I remembered was the fatal blow from Azazel, as I valiantly tried to protect Matasyn from his wrath. Had that treacherous hound decided to let go of Matasyn and return to report to his master after he killed me? But where was I now?This place was unfamiliar, and it wasn't the realm between life and death that I had heard of. The realm's voice that usually whispered in my ears was eerily silent as if all its memories had been erased.As I looked around, my heart sank as I realized that I was not alone. The emerald-tinted surroundings were teeming with countless formless souls, swirling around aimlessly in a never-ending abyss. Their presence was suffocating and cold, their existence devoid of any rationality or purpose. They were like lost souls, condemned to roam this desolate realm

46.2_Unchanged endearment, Learning again
Chapter 36.2: Something new, everything changeCollocatione: a well-known spell that is used by demons and angels, others don’t use it and use the lesser version known as ‘wrap’. There are two ways to use the spell, either by great knowing the place's structure and texture like the coordinates or just recalling the memories that you remember of that place.Wrap: a spell using estimation from eye length to teleport. Low succession chance and doesn’t account for height differences so it’s dangerous for those who first use it as they will fall head first from the sky. The only reason to use it is low mana situations or quick-time battles.De Amia: well there is nothing to be said of this. It’s somewhat higher than ‘cure’ but lesser in the healing than ‘cure’. I never go forth with dark magic study so I can’t use any normal healing spells on demons so this spell that use to exchange l

47_Prosopamesia
Chapter 47: Slept daze“Gabriel, you are here. I am not in the place again, right?” This shouldn’t be true, I need to wake up from here. These fulfilling dreams are not of my own but also his, why does he appear here or perhaps this isn’t Aeterna but another cage that Sariel build for me?Trying to recall what my last memory was, Matasyn had made a foolish wish that cause a thousand lives to be traded for mine. And then I made a contract with God…The horn is still here so it means it’s been true, God has made quite a cruel joke for me to wake up like this.“It seems that waking up at this time is too soon for you. Another month or year for you to comprehend things, Mikhail.” Gabriel smiles strangely, his expression is quite mature looking somehow. Time has passed quite much or at least the world set to be.“Be straight with me, Gabriel. Did my escape come undone?” I ask hastily,
