"What's the matter?.Is there something wrong?."Orion was concerned about what Mandar Schions words entailed.
"You possess a universal affinity for all types of magic.This simply has to be tested and recorded in the annuls of history.For now lets have you learn soul magic."Mandar Schion spoke in an excited tone.
This proposal intrigued Orion who had heard Varimathras talk about gaining soul power.He wanted to learn more about the capabilities of soul magic just so he knew what Varimathras was fully capable of.
"Don't demons use soul magic?."asked Orion as he wanted to confirm if it was the norm for demons to use soul magic.
"Yes they do.Now how do you know about that?.That's information that only the nobility,royals and the mages guild knows about."Mandar looked towards Orion with skepticism in his eyes.
"When I was captured by the necromancers they talked about feeding Varimathras the demon of sloth with soul magic in order to fuel his strengh."Orion came up with a lie on the spot.
"Well they were correct demons do indeed use and feed on soul magic.If they didn't know about that then I would question their ability to summon a demon.Its a common misconception with the commoners,peasants and adventurers that demons use dark magic.That sort of magic is only used by the darkness and dark Lords.Demons don't use dark magic but soul magic.Demons never have a true natural physical form unless they are summoned into this world and given a body.They are merely malevolent souls and spirits that originate from hell.Though why does hell exist?If the light and light lords are so virtuous and forgiving then why are people who don't worship them destined to suffer for eternity in hell?.That's why so many people disagree with the light including me.It feels like they lied about stuff."Mandar Schion went on a long rant about demons and questioning the light.
Once Mandar Schion was finished talking he led Orion to a large library.The library was colossal with many stair cases,floors and corridors.There was a countless number of books and book shelves.The library itself seemed too large for even the castle to accommodate it.It caused Orion to use his assessment skill.
(Grand library of the mages guild)
The grand library of the mages guild which contains all the magical knowledge,rituals and spells which have been amassed over all the millenia.The interior of the library is far larger then its exterior due to spatial folding magic formations and runic inscriptions.If a number of sections or floors become full then the library becomes larger to accommodate extra space.
[Assessment has leveled up]
Orion was in awe of the sheer magnitude and magnificence of the library filled with millenia of magical knowledge.
"I don't think I have to tell you just how precious this place is.Make sure you don't destroy anything with magic and make sure you don't test any destructive spells in here.The spatial magic formations and runic inscriptions that make this room possible have been lost to time and are hidden.I can't repair or recreate it without absurd levels of research and effort even though I'm trying it.Theres other people using this room so please be mindful of them.This room is only usable for high profile personnel such as royal guard captains and powerful mages.I recommend keeping a low profile.I'll now lead you to the soul magic section."Mandar Schion had a depressed expression on his face.It was inevitable for magic spells and techniques to be lost to time but for such an important spatial magic technique to be lost was a pity.
Orion was led to a certain floor and part of the library that possessed a table.There were multiple spell books and papers on soul magic research and theories on it.
"I'll let you stay here for 45 minutes.Feel free to study soul magic and look around this area."Mandar Schion then left Orion in the library.
Orion didn't need anything further to be said as this was a brilliant opportunity to expand his spell repertoire and learn about yhe capabilities of soul magic.
