Did the villainous professor survive today?

"It is no honor, Your Highness."

After Kroenke finished speaking, he silently looked at the system panel.

Isabelle O'Reilly

[Death Threat: B]

The game's final boss, the Chaos Overlord—Isabel.

Princess Isabel, unable to control her innate chaotic magic, eventually lost control and became a formidable obstacle in the player's main questline.

Chaos magic is the most dangerous and unique type of magic. Those who possess this spell are born with unparalleled magical power, but correspondingly, its holders are completely unable to control it and are constantly struggling on the verge of losing control.

As a result, people born with chaos magic are now called children of curses. If she hadn't been the Pope's daughter, she would have been thrown into the Inquisition and burned at the stake right after birth.

It seems that it was the theory of the common origin of magic that she mentioned that gave Isabel hope of eradicating the chaotic magic that had plagued her for so long.

Kroenke looked at his own panel again:

[Spirit Lv22 (0/720)]

【Mana Lv27 (400/1120)】

Strength Lv12 (13/260)

[Constitution Lv15 (5/380)]

Now there is a problem.

To ensure the randomness of chaos magic, the design team initially adopted a three-body motion chaos model.

This means that mastering this type of magic requires extremely high mental attributes from the player.

In short, a powerful CPU is required, otherwise the system will crash.

In the game, the spirit attribute is the most difficult to improve.

It determines the accuracy of the magic a player uses, as well as functional abilities such as comprehension, memory, and observation.

For spells like Chaos Magic, the most powerful spells in the game, players can only learn them in the late game, when they are close to the maximum level.

But everyone present was staring at him; the die was cast, and he had no choice but to act.

Without hesitation, Krenk transferred all 4500 points he had previously earned to the Spirit tier.

[You have consumed 720 points, and your Spirit level has been upgraded to Lv23]

[You have consumed 800 points, and your Spirit level has been upgraded to Lv24]

【…】

[You have consumed 1040 points, and your Spirit level has been upgraded to Lv27]

As the text on the screen scrolled and refreshed, the world before Kroenke's eyes suddenly became clearer.

Every detail is crystal clear, and a massive amount of information that was previously impossible to capture with the naked eye floods into the brain. Even the world seems to slow down at this moment.

In that instant, he could even clearly observe the trembling of the fine hairs on Isabel's face as she breathed in and out.

For example, it's like suddenly switching from the old, dilapidated 540P resolution to ultra-high-definition 4K resolution, as if opening the door to a new world.

[Spirit Lv27 (100/1120)]

This bullet-time effect didn't last long. With his mental level remaining at 27, Krenk cleared his throat:

"Your Highness, according to the theory of the common origin of magic, chaos magic is not fundamentally different from other magic. After extensive research, I have explored the operating principle of chaos magic."

Krenk stretched out his hand, and as his body channeled magic, a tiny ball of magical light gathered in his palm.

"Your Highness, as you can see, this is a pure manifestation of magic."

"Yes, Professor, please continue."

Although she didn't quite understand Kroenke's point of view, she still maintained her respect.

"Do the others have any questions?"

"No." The elderly people listening in unison shook their heads.

"Okay, I'll continue."

As Krenk spoke, he began to manipulate the elemental orb in his hand, imbuing it with different elemental magic.

As the magic flowed, the orbs of light before us took on different forms: lightning, gale, flame, metal, water, sand...

Due to the improvement in his mental attribute panel, Krenk found that the magic he usually had to consciously manipulate suddenly became as natural as breathing.

This feeling is as if everything except oneself revolves around oneself; he is the center of the world, the only one in the world.

Various elemental magics flowed and changed in his hands, and finally, it returned to its original white sphere of light:

"Your Highness, the attributes of elemental magic are merely a shell; ultimately, they are all just magic power. This is the cornerstone of the theory of the common origin of magic."

"Professor Krenk," an elderly man in the audience raised his hand to interrupt.

"The magic you mentioned is all regular and controllable. Fundamentally, it cannot explain the uncontrollability and randomness of chaos magic."

He did not believe that Kroenke's conclusions were necessarily correct, even though he was the leading professor who proved the theory of element affinity.

After all, before Kroenke, there had already been many significant advancements in the theory of elemental affinity. In his eyes, Kroenke was nothing more than a reaper.

Those chosen as the princess's mentors are all worldly-wise; they have seen countless geniuses attempt to decipher the essence of chaotic magic, but without exception, all have ended in failure.

As for why he chose to listen, it was firstly because it was His Highness's request, and secondly because he wanted to hear the young man's insights and see if he could gain inspiration or find a new perspective, rather than expecting him to actually overcome this difficulty.

Kroenke glanced at the other person and simply replied calmly:

"Question: What is the most prominent characteristic of chaos magic?"

Without hesitation, the old man replied, "Vast energy, unpredictable, and without attributes."

"Wrong."

"Wrong?" The old man's tone revealed a hint of surprise.

"Not only is it wrong, but two out of the three characteristics are wrong."

Kroenke said firmly,

"It's absolutely wrong."

"Two wrong? How could that be..." The old man's eyes widened. "These three characteristics are clearly recognized by all scholars in the magical world..."

"Therefore, this is precisely why all scholars throughout history, even the great sages, have failed to decipher chaos magic."

Kroenke said coldly, his gaze returning to Isabel.

"Your Highness, from the very beginning, chaos magic has not been a single, massive source of magic power, but rather composed of numerous smaller sources of magic power. Furthermore, it is not without attributes, but rather a variant of gravity magic. The difference between the two is that gravity magic is directed outwards, while chaos magic is directed inwards."

As he spoke, Krenk channeled his magic power, creating a second energy ball in his hand.

Immediately afterwards, the two energy orbs began to move slowly under the pull of each other, orbiting each other in a stable circular motion.

Krenk gazed at the twin-shaped sphere moving in his hand and explained:

"As Your Highness can see, the two spheres of light that attract each other move along a single trajectory with almost no change. Of course, this is based on the condition that there are only two spheres. Once a third sphere of light is added, the situation will be very different."

At this point, Kroenke paused, raised his eyes, and looked at everyone.

"Alright everyone, from now on, please don't blink, because what's about to happen may be beyond your comprehension."
