A Certain Multiverse's Holy Right

Returning to the room in Jerusalem where he had stayed with Roman, Roy opened the drawer of the desk where Roman had spent so much time on the computer. As expected, inside, he found the records Roman had left for him.

A parchment scroll lay within, inscribed with intricate and precise patterns. In the blank spaces, Roman had meticulously annotated explanations for the symbols and text on the scroll. This was the second gift Roman had left behind.

"When did he even find the time to write this?"

Roy pondered the question. During the six days prior, he had been actively "supervising," ensuring Roman was working diligently on the foundational elements of the technique. There had been no opportunity for Roman to complete this parchment during the daytime.

"It must have been at night, after I fell asleep."

Roy sighed as the realization struck. He had assumed Roman spent his nights idly watching live streams, eating cake, and drinking Coke—living the life of a self-indulgent slacker. But in reality, even at night, Roman had been working overtime, toiling in secret where Roy, the "boss," couldn't see him. (T/N: Truly the dream employee of every capitalist)

"This guy really is a rare gem of an employee. If I were giving out awards, I'd definitely present him with the 'Most Dedicated Employee' prize."

Roy chuckled to himself, then quickly delved into the contents of the recorded magic.

…

King Solomon possessed the ability of Clairvoyance, a fact Roy had learned from Roman. As the greatest king of Israel and a figure blessed with divine wisdom, Solomon was born with the ability to "see through the past and the future."

The ability to see the future, however, held less allure. This predictive power essentially worked by synthesizing all available information from the past and present to extrapolate the most optimal future outcome.

For an ordinary person, whose life unfolds within predictable bounds, such future predictions could achieve near-total accuracy. But for beings of extraordinary power—those who transcended conventional limits—known information often proved insufficient to make accurate forecasts. In such cases, any vision of the future would be riddled with uncertainty. For this reason, Roy found little interest in the "ability to see the future," as it was a skill fraught with limitations.

The "ability to see through the past," on the other hand, was genuinely formidable. The past is immutable—events fully recorded and absolute in their correctness. To possess eyes that could unravel the past meant having access to the vast, unalterable flow of history. Nothing could remain hidden from someone who could peer into such depths.

The present is fleeting, the future distant and uncertain. But the past, solidified in the annals of time, holds the greatest wealth of information.

King Solomon's ability to see through the past and the future was an innate talent. But as the King of Magic, he also wielded the Wisdom of God. Coupled with the Campione world's Netherworld, a realm that archives the entirety of past information, these factors enabled Solomon to craft a magic spell he named Pseudo-Clairvoyance.

This magic replicated his innate ability to an extraordinary degree. Its creation was an act of supreme magical ingenuity, allowing those who wielded it to gaze upon the truths of history. This technique embodied Solomon's brilliance as both a mage and a king.

By engraving this magic rune into one's eye, one could connect to the Netherworld and see through all past events. For Roy, this magic formula brought him immediate strength, surpassing even the potential offered by the Foundation of Human Order.

While the Foundation of Human Order promised Roy a broad and expansive future, the Pseudo-Clairvoyance empowered him to seize the present.

However, this magic came with limitations. It was specifically designed to work within the framework of the Campione world. If Roy traveled to another world and wished to use the magic eye to pierce through its past, he would need to modify the magical structure to adapt it to the records of that world. This adaptation required Roy to have exceptionally solid and extensive magical knowledge since he did not naturally possess the ability of "clairvoyance."

…

"Aiwass, let's put your modified Pandora's Ritual of Usurpation on hold for now. I need to finish this magic spell first."

After fully memorizing and understanding the contents of the parchment, Roy incinerated it.

The magic spell was undoubtedly powerful but also perilous. If others obtained it, it could spell trouble for Roy. Destroying the parchment was the safest course of action.

After some thought, Roy summoned Erica and Liliana. He explained that he needed uninterrupted time to perform a magic ritual and asked them to ensure no one disturbed him, guarding the door as he worked.

After giving his instructions, Roy set up several alert magics. These were not meant to be impenetrable defenses but rather a clear warning: Do not disturb. (T/N: Bro is entering seclusion 💀)

With the preparations complete, Roy issued commands as the King, requesting materials and tools for the ritual from the Seven Sisters Alliance in Italy. Within a day, everything he needed had been delivered, and the arrangements were finalized.

…

At a simple test bench, Roy carefully manipulated the Nasuverse magecraft he had learned from Solomon. With the precision of a surgeon, he carved intricate runes and incantations onto an eyeball on the bench.

This was his own left eye. Currently, an empty and bloody hole occupied his left eye socket. Roy suppressed the Campione's potent regenerative abilities, ensuring the socket would not heal until the procedure was complete.

For a Campione, losing limbs or organs was not a permanent setback—they could recover from such injuries.

Roy never imagined that he would one day be capable of such self-inflicted brutality, personally gouging out his own eye. It was a horrifying act that he wouldn't have dared consider in the past.

Learning extensive magical knowledge had reshaped his mindset, allowing him to adhere to the rigorous standards of a magician.

The magic of the Campione world leaned heavily towards offense, making it unsuitable for delicate experiments. Conversely, the magecraft (or you know the dollar store magic not the gourmet true magic) of the Nasuverse world was largely research-oriented, making it ideal for projects like creating a mystic eye.

"Done!"

When Roy completed the nano-scale engraving with his rock-steady hands, even he couldn't help but admire his precision. The Campione's mastery over the minutiae of his body was truly terrifying.

Placing the completed mystic eye into a prepared solution, Roy let it soak briefly before retrieving it. Then, he surgically reimplanted the eye into his socket, reconnecting the optic nerve. The mystic eye immediately synchronized with his brain, and a specific region of his mind linked directly to his soul, granting Roy complete control over the new eye.

If this mystic eye were in the Nasuverse, it would undoubtedly be classified as a top-tier Rainbow-class Mystic Eye. Under Roy's power, it not only possessed the destructive Eye of Sodom—a power on par with Medusa's Mystic Eyes of Petrification which are considered Jewel-class Mystic Eyes—but also granted the clairvoyance to see into the past. Its versatility was staggering.

As the implantation process concluded, Roy experienced the wonder of Clairvoyance for the first time—seeing through the fabric of history.

"The Library of Plutarch?! So the Netherworld contains such a place—a mysterious archive akin to the Akashic Records, where all past information is preserved. The witches' visions always fixated on this location—it was The Library of Plutarch all along!

"…I see. I see now. This is the truth of the world: the origins of the Heretic God and the Campione; the identity and power of the Last King; his hiding place; the root of the intertwined fates of the Campione and the Heretic Gods; and the real mastermind behind it all!"

At that moment, Roy reached an epiphany. It was as if he had read the very script of this world. No secret remained hidden from him; everything was laid bare under the sun.

Roy had only ever watched the Campione anime in the past and had never read the original novels. At Aiwass's suggestion, he refrained from reading them even now to avoid triggering significant butterfly effects.

However, through Clairvoyance, Roy acquired all the information he needed. As a magical process, it entirely circumvented the butterfly effect, allowing him to prepare for everything.
