‘So what if Alex read it? If he can’t learn it, then it’s nothing but trash!’
‘What a shame, the Rockefeller family was nearly exterminated for such a scam.’
Nolan sighed. “My dear grandson, you completely can’t learn the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell. It’s a spell rejected by the entire universe… Even if you try to learn it, you will be greatly limited!”
“Our ancestor could only master it because he had been to a certain place in the universe. It’s a given that none of our family were able to master the spell.”
He became rather remorseful when thinking back to the hundred and thirty four members in their family who had passed. If he knew, he would’ve given the Holy Book to the Yaakov’s right then.
However…
“Grandpa, I am learning the Ten-Point Forbidden Spell.”
Nolan was stunned. “What did you say?”
Alex grinned. “I said… I can learn… This spell… In the Holy Book.”
Nolan was appalled. “You can learn it… But can you master it?”
Alex explained with a soft smile. “This is a real good book. I could only receive scraps back then, and there weren’t any complete steps for the spell. I had to work my way through it blindly, and I had no way of continuing the spell. So, this is great. With this complete book, I know what to do next.”
Upon hearing Alex’s explanation, Nolan was surprised and happy, never expecting things to be so coincidental.
‘Alex had been walking down this path, waiting for the Holy Book all along.’
‘Is this fate?’
Alex stayed within the Holy Book for a total of eight hours, indicating he must’ve been able to learn a lot. He learned how to concentrate his three thousand golden cores, turning them all into nascent souls at this point. Before this, he could only upgrade the spell passively. Yet now, he was able to train himself with all the details of the ten skills in this spell.

“Just now. We heard you.”
“Yeah, yeah! I heard that too!”
“Aunt Michelle looks so sad, Papa. Can’t you just massage her? Do it gently, though. Look how swollen they are. They must be painful, right?”
Beatrice, standing at the side, laughed so hard her stomach hurt.
Michelle couldn’t take this any longer. She turned away and huffed. “I’m leaving!”
“Stand right there,” Alex spoke up.
Michelle turned back to him. “What is it?”
“Something is indeed wrong with your body part,” Alex replied. “I’ll massage… No wait, I mean I’ll… heal you.”
