These Fire-Written Papers had no text on them.

But Lu Cang used Information Tracing to read them in great detail.

’So much has happened, yet I have no memory of it. If it weren’t for Information Tracing... I probably wouldn’t remember a thing.’

"So, it really is February now."

February—the month of life and growth.

Moon: Sophia.

Celestial Phenomenon: Life Rain.

「February 1st—Leap Year Blessing: Rebirth」

For today only, there is one chance to be revived after death.

Whether one is gravely ill or afflicted by a Curse, they can be reborn today through the great amnesty of life.

Lu Cang walked out onto the balcony.

Droplets of the Life Rain fell from the clear sky.

The grass and trees grew wildly.

In the distance, mountains that had been stripped bare by the disasters of the previous months were now, overnight, covered in endless greenery.

The celestial phenomenon of the Life Rain.

Bathing in the drops of the Life Rain provides a continuous healing Effect.

And during the month of life, the Effects of all healing and recovery are greatly enhanced. Even the most severe injuries can be stabilized through treatment, preventing them from worsening.

As long as one doesn’t die on the spot, there is a very high probability of survival.

This was also the month with the fewest deaths.

He exhaled.

He felt refreshed and invigorated.

’This might be my favorite month. My second favorite is probably the Harvest Moon.’

’It’s just a shame that Death Spells are suppressed this month.’

All abilities related to Death are also penalized heavily.

It really is a bit unfriendly to Death Priests.

FLAP FLAP—

He had only been standing on the balcony for a moment when a colorful-feathered dove landed before him.

It was a World Dove.

They possess the innate Talent to travel across long distances through Space and are the primary tool most people use to send messages.

Lu Cang took the letter from it.

"Lu Cang, are you doing well? I should arrive in Kernoya in February. —Luo Si"

’Oh.’

Lu Cang remembered that when they parted in Raine Town, Luo Si had said she would come to Kernoya in a few months.

’Looks like she’s on her way.’

He didn’t wake Yuna, so as to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings.

Lu Cang summoned a maid and ate breakfast.

Then, he began to review the knowledge he had learned in January, following the records he’d left for himself.

The memories were indeed gone, but the knowledge wasn’t completely lost.

A quick glance at his notes and a look through the relevant books was all it took to quickly recall the associated knowledge.

Although he could be resurrected today, Lu Cang had no intention of courting death.

After he had studied until noon, Yuna also woke up.

After groggily confirming that it was now February and that January had passed inexplicably, she dazedly returned to the White Tower.

After that, Lu Cang met up with Chi Cheng.

Using the Source of Calamity in conjunction with a Ritual, they tried to summon a tide of Demons, but they still couldn’t create a Level 7 one.

In the end, they created a few Tier Six Dungeons.

Lu Cang and Chi Cheng then tried to run a Nest created with a Sacrifice of ten billion souls.

Their test revealed that the Nest from a ten billion soul Sacrifice...

...was no different from a Nest created with a five million soul Sacrifice.

’It seems there’s a limit to the Sacrifice of souls.’

’The limit probably lies in whether the Nest itself has a stronger core, not in the number of souls.’

Lu Cang made it through February 1st without dying once.

However, if an enemy strong enough to kill Lu Cang even once were to appear during the month of life, the entire Ruelun Continent would likely be in peril.

Over the next few days, Lu Cang reviewed and recalled all the memories he might have lost during the Forgotten Moon.

...

「February 4th.」

The Flying Airship, theoretically capable of exceeding the speed of the corruption’s spread, was completed.

A Ritual Array for promotion was inscribed upon it.

It was less "inscribed" and more like the rear hall of Kernoya’s Promotion Hall had been moved directly onto the Flying Airship.

The Flying Airship floated in the air.

Lu Cang, Kumironi, and many scholars from the White Tower all boarded the airship.

After a long wait, he was finally ascending to Level 4 Mage today.
