(Removed for KU) TtOW! - Chapter 137 - Reminiscence
🕑 Added 2023-04-12 20:54:24 +0000 UTCAuthor’s Note:
Oops, turns out this situation happens to be directly relevant to certain scenarios back in the Faceless Minion, so had to bring the connection in. We barely avoided NSLICE-00P’s previous Commander immediately resolving the situation! …which considering them, is not at all out of character, but might have felt like a deus ex machina to those of you who didn’t read that one lol. But well, considering that they took on NSLICE-00P and won back in the day, maybe they’re already a living deus ex machina lol.
My desire to prevent any sort of cross-novel spoilers and keep the novel as stand-alone as possible while still giving adequate context to her thoughts when she would logically make the connection is being put to the test though, haha.
In fact, NSLICE-00P, um, may or may not have just gotten a spell from one of the Faceless Minion’s most powerful characters so, um, oops? Because now that I reviewed that scene, like, why wouldn’t she have recorded a spell being cast right in front of her…that…she, um, now has the mana to cast…um…
A-Anyways!
Can Ateia get a handle on her new situation? Can NSLICE-00P determine a solution to the situation with preexisting organic memories? Did she learn powerful spells from an individual who doesn’t appear in this novel? Tune in next time, to find out!

your end of notes writing is delightful. It's like watching a skilled improv artist craft an *extremely* long scene
Beeees!
Love this story so much, but I may love the authors notes at the end even more... Anyways, thanks for the chapter

Just let her use all of the magics, what's the worst that could happen?........
Rainer
And with those suggestions, the potential pothole should be closed.
Rainer
In fact, you could even have a chapter where she tries to do exactly what SG76 said, and attempt the other world's magic, but find that its Mana usage is inferior, doesn’t work, or something similar.
Rainer
You mean you didn't fully flesh out a magic system in a world with few magic users? What if they used different sources? Like some found a way to harness Mana into magic circles, as the example states. Some could have powers granted from gods. You could just say that the other world was full of hedge wizards who Mcguyvered their own magic systems, and basically brute forced it to work.

...those are good questions. Questions that require me to decide what the magic system in the Faceless Minion actually was...err, I mean, to reconcile these fully fleshed out and well thought out systems together! Luckily there are only a handful of confirmed mage characters there so maybe we can just say she avoided them...wait...she definitely would have encountered that one... ... uh oh.

Doesn’t this mean that any Spell/Magic Circle that NSLICE-00P witnessed or saw a video of, she can now recall & use? Would this be a 2nd Magic System? Id so would this allow her to compare both Magic Systems and learn more about both and expand more of her knowledge/experiments after comparing and contrasting both? Or would the Spells/Magic Circles fit into the 1st Magic System? And if so then would this allow her to expand her knowledge/experiments further with the 1st Magic System?

...that's good. I'm editing that in right now.
Rainer
Should have said "take it one sip at a time."... you know, because she's sipping tea?

Thanks for the chapter!
