"So, you can see these blue lights too..." Levid pondered, nodding.
"What exactly is this blue light? What does it mean to be able to see it?"
"It means that you and I actually share the same qualities. Have you heard of... ancient magic?"
Levid's eyes widened.
"Ancient magic?!"
Before crossing over, Levid had encountered the concept of ancient magic in a game called Hogwarts Legacy.
It was a powerful form of magic... only a select few wizards could master and wield.
It was arguably the game's protagonist's ultimate weapon, their ultimate move...
"It seems you already know.
Then I won't explain any further."
The strange man didn't ask Levid how he knew.
He simply glanced at the table, and then an exquisite teapot and two teacups appeared on the table.
The teapot floated up, automatically pouring tea into the two cups. Then, one cup floated in front of Levid.
Levid immediately smelled the rich aroma of black tea, but he didn't touch the cup in front of him.
"Although all this is a dream, the feeling it gives you is real. So, why don't you take a sip of tea before continuing your questions?"
Upon hearing this, Li Wei De picked up his teacup and took a sip... the fragrance lingered on his teeth.
"Tea like this can only be found in dreams... Why do you also practice nightmare magic?
Are you from the Somrenno family?" Li Wei De asked again.
The strange man shook his head and said, "I'm not from the Somrenno family.
I know this magic because I created it. However, I did teach it to the Somrenno family decades ago."
"Impossible! The manuscript that records this magic is at least hundreds of years old.
How could you have taught it to them decades ago?
" Li Wei De immediately found the flaw in his statement.
"It can't be helped. Who told you to choose black magic spells that are hundreds of years old? I had to use some tricks to make you think the manuscript was old enough..." The strange man said with a hint of resignation.
Li Weide looked at the weirdo in surprise, "You were there when I was choosing black magic?"
The weirdo sighed, "Weide, I need to understand you better than you think..."
"In fact, after I found out that you have the same characteristics as me, I wanted to talk to you in your dream."
"It's a pity... you are too far away from me, beyond the maximum distance of this magic.
Even I can only barely appear in front of you and can't make any sound."
"Until I found out that you accidentally inherited the tower of the Somleno family, and you happened to have a lighter with the aura of ancient magic in your hand..."
Li Weide said: "So, you guided me to get the manuscript of nightmare magic, and then let me practice nightmare magic.
Only if I also learned nightmare magic, can you make a sound in my dream? And then use the lighter to lead me here?"
"Yes. I must find a way to get you to come to me." The weirdo said.
Li Weide was silent for a long time, and then suddenly asked: "Those white mists that appeared in my dreams... were also made by you?"
"Yes..." The weirdo nodded.
"No wonder... it's thanks to the white mist's reminder that I was able to reach the threshold of Nightmare Magic so quickly," Li Weide said.
"It's... because time is running out.
I can't wait for you to learn Nightmare Magic, so I had to help you.
If I offend you, I apologize in advance..."
Li Weide stared at the strange man in front of him.
"Now, besides you and me, who else possesses the characteristics of ancient magic?"
"No, you are the only one I have found so far.
" The weirdo replied.
Li Weide took a deep breath.
Could this weirdo be the protagonist of Hogwarts Legacy?
He was a ruthless man who would kill seven or eight people on the way to class!
He didn't expect that he would end up like this...
"Why can't you find me directly, but spend so much effort to contact me in a dream?
Even now that I am here, you still can't see me with your true face?" Li Weide asked in one breath.
"As I said at the beginning... I am a poor man enslaved by power.
I have failed my teacher's expectations of me... and absorbed too much ancient magical power." The weirdo's tone was full of bitterness.
"When I discovered that there was too much ancient magic power in my body, it was too late. I paid the price for my arrogance...
I could self-destruct at any time, and the power of my self-destruction might be enough to destroy an entire city!"
"At that time, a friend of mine had made great achievements in alchemy...
He made me a cloak, which could temporarily freeze all the ancient magic power in my body and delay my death."
"But at the same time, my body was also frozen..."
"For safety reasons, my friends moved my body here, away from the crowd.
And then slowly tried to find a solution to my problem...
As a result, I have been here for decades."
"Until now, my friends have not visited me for a long time.
Perhaps they have all passed away, and I can no longer observe them..."
"I couldn't leave, and all my friends were dead, so I could only contact you through dreams."
Levid asked in confusion, "Then, since you couldn't even leave, how did you discover my true nature?
How did you know so much about me?"
The strange man replied, "This brings us to Nightmare Magic... Do you know how I created this magic?"
Levid shook his head.
"You can imagine how bored I was, alone in this place, unable to move.
And at the same time, how horrible was the feeling of helplessness..." The strange man's tone grew agitated.
"Later, with Nightmare Magic, I felt less bored, less hopeless...
As time passed, I discovered that my dream power could actually spread outward, allowing me to observe many things..."
Levid immediately understood that Nightmare Magic was his creation out of boredom.
Dreams that could change at any time according to one's wishes were perfect for someone who couldn't even move.
Levid thought that perhaps it was Nightmare Magic that kept this strange man from being driven mad by the endless emptiness and loneliness.
No wonder his nightmare magic can reach such a level...
He can even use the power of dreams to observe things outside? So terrifying...
"Then your friends just left you here and left without a care in the world?
Why didn't they leave someone to accompany you?
They can take turns to accompany you for a while, right?" Li Weide asked doubtfully.
"I asked them to leave... I'm a powder keg that can explode at any time, and it's not safe for them to stay here..." The weirdo's tone was full of helplessness.
How could he want to face this situation alone? But...
"All this is my own fault... I promised my teacher that I could control this power, but in the end..."
Li Weide asked, "Then how do you want me to save you?"
"You also have the talent to control ancient magic, so... absorb me!
Absorb some of the ancient magic power in me! In this way, I can regain my freedom!"
