Mage Manual

Chapter 456: Chapter 377: The Witch’s Concerns

Ash had not doubted for the first time that his operators were real people rather than mere pieces of paper.

In fact, as early as when the Sword Maiden told him in prison, “You are not everything in my life, just an accident in my life. Even without you, I can still live well in places you don’t know about,” Ash had never seen operators as mere data streams.

But since the Sword Maiden told him right from the start that to Ash, they were merely virtual memories… there was no reason for the Sword Maiden to lie to him about this, right?

Moreover, since they had never met in reality, Ash defined operators as follows:

Though they lived in their own unique storyworlds, they shared the same Void Realm with Ash.

This explained very well why they could form teams in the Void Realm and why Ash could influence them through “Aurora’s Mage Manual”—their storyworlds were a subdimension of the main world, where they were the fated protagonists, each with their own story lines. As a player, Ash’s task was to help them grow stronger and overcome various plot points.

Although their storyworlds didn’t overlap with Ash’s real world, the worldview settings were supposed to be the same, hence the Void Realm knowledge that the Sword Maiden learned in the Kingdom of Stars could be directly applied to Void Realm Exploration.

And those who had appeared in the Void Realm could be found in their storyworlds—for example, the Heroic Soul Commander Demilo who was killed by Ash and others, was discovered by the Sword Maiden to be related to Duke Vosloda in her world.

However, Ash’s naive thoughts were severely shaken in the amnesia cabin.

The Witch and the Gospel Incarnation looked exactly alike!
