Chapter 508 The Edge of Truth
From this light that entered Andar's consciousness, he knew of the four Archmages of the Black Tower as they had left different personal messages for him inside of it.
The first and most surprising was from the 4 Star Archmage, Hashim Prizahl, Watcher Of Blades, and as Andar was just discovering, Mira's father.
He felt his Spirit almost leaving his body as he recalled his daring action on Mira when his body was inflamed with desires, luckily enough the Archmage did not draw any attention to that matter in his message, but the fact that he introduced himself as Mira's father was compelling.
He could almost detect the note of amusement this Archmage left inside his message, but Andar was not at ease, but the opposite, an Archmage had countless methods to make him suffer.
Also, he was the second strongest Archmage after the Steward, this showed the incredible background of Mira, for it was very difficult for an Archmage to increase their level, each Star that was gained was almost as difficult as becoming an Archmage from a mage, of course, there were certain caveats like an Archmage was considered functionally immortal, and they could take as much time as they wanted until their Ascension was perfect.
The second was 2 Star Archmage Lucuis Gyfron The Pioneer Of Treasure, this Archmage seemed to be very interested in Andar's ability to create treasures that only a Mage should be capable of producing as an Acolyte, and as his Title suggested, although he was the weakest of all the Archmages here, he quietly pointed out that he was the richest, having produced and accumulated treasures for countless years.
The third was 3 Star Archmage Shemira Myrcelo Holder of the Crystal Rose. This was an Archmage that Andar had a history with.
The hunt for him and his master by the Mage Silas was linked to her as he learned that his planet fell under her jurisdiction, and even until this moment, Andar did not know the status of his master.
The blame for this incident falls entirely on her shoulders, but it does not mean Andar has the right to confront her over it. He was barely worth her attention at this time.
Numerous messages were waiting for Andar inside his communication device, but he refused to open that Can Of Worms, as it would only lead to grief and mistakes on his part.
Every problem he faced would be solved in due time as he got stronger, and some problems would even naturally disappear when the status and prestige of Andar reached a certain level.
Last but not least was the most powerful Archmage of the Black Tower, only underneath the Tower Master himself, 5 Star Archmage Khasos Mylos, The Golem King, and the Steward of The Black Tower. 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝘯𝘰𝘷ℯ𝘭.𝑐𝘰𝑚
This truly Ancient Being was the Archmage that Andar was most familiar with. With the identities of all the Archmage in mind, and knowing the direction of his future in the next few months, Andar proceeded to rest for the next three days before retrieving the passcode for the Ancient Library and finding his way over to that location.
The Ancient Library could be important for Andar, but he knew there was someone else who would find its services more important. It was not a surprise for Andar when he felt his consciousness begin to fall into darkness as Rowan took over his body.
This sensation was not supposed to happen, as Andar should be unaware of when Rowan took over his body, but the Meditation Art he practiced ensured that Andar's body would record and recall every single thing that occurred within and outside him, and although he was still too weak to understand most of what his body was recording, he would remember it all.
Even Rowan had no idea about what such a talent that was awakened in Andar could achieve. There was potential here that he could explore, but for now, he placed that aside.

Rowan was aware of all the changes going on inside Andar's body, as he was directly partaking in it using his Reflection, although he kept himself from every action and decision made by Andar and the only time he interfered was when the Light Devourer inside Andar's Spirit Matrix threatened to escape from his control.
If his plans for Andar were to ever work out, the child must show supreme talents, but he must never be seen as someone who craved power, even though he would have access to a lot of it.
There was a subtle difference here and a careful balancing act he had to walk. Rowan wanted a figure that would command respect and adoration rather than fear. Essentially what he wanted was a leader, one whose prestige was not tainted by violence, but was powerful enough that no one would doubt his might.
He would not be getting that if it seemed like Andar was a Mage who craved brutality or conflict.
This decision was also easier for Rowan to achieve because the child was a born Scholar, with no single ambitious bone in his body. That would have to change in the future but for now, Rowan was satisfied with Andar's performance.
He looked around this Ancient Library and the full scope of the Supreme power of the Mages became clear to him.
The fact that they could hijack one of the fundamental powers of the universe that controls Tribulations and disbursing of Primordial Aether was alarming enough, but they could somehow gather knowledge from many different universes, even those that had long perished showed that the depths of a Supreme World was one that no Major World had the capability of touching.
Andar's body and Spirit were still too weak, and Rowan did not have much time inside this place. And so he began to move using Andar's Spirit and proceeded to the closest shelf.
To gain access to the information in this place, a large emphasis was placed on the Spirit. Although Andar could last for a total of three minutes inside this place, that was when he was not actively trying to collect the information given to him here, which could be done by touching the book of your choice and accepting the knowledge it contained.
