The next day, early morning.

The four of them met up in an unoccupied room and Daniuis started to give out a speech, expressing his opinion and knowledge on the profession of Inscription Master.

"This profession is active from ancient times, however, it isn't as popular as Alchemy nor is it lucrative because all the well-known Inscription Masters would sell the Inscriptions for a high-price, leading it to be less-known."

"You can always find the demand for pills but people would rarely buy Inscriptions since it costs a lot. However, not all think that way."

"This is mostly because the same Inscription Symbol created by different inscriptionists can largely differ in effectiveness and usefulness."

"People who can afford to buy will not hesitate to buy your Inscription Symbols if you are a well known Inscription Master. However, they will hesitate to look at your inscriptions if you are unknown or even averagely skilled."

"Besides, many people are capable of making Inscriptions as long as they have enough cultivation, knowledge and wealth."

"So the next step in this profession after learning inscriptions is to make connections and build up your prestige as an Inscription Master."

"Grand Uncle, I have pill making for gaining wealth. I just want to learn Inscriptions for self-defense." Davis promptly cut his speech.

However, Daniuis's eyes widened, "Exactly, many people who learn Inscriptions Symbols mostly do so to improve their survivability in the wilderness, not earn wealth with it."

"Unless the Inscription Masters can secure a source of income like the Alchemists, it will become difficult for them to practice inscriptions in the future, after all, they need wealth from commissions to learn more inscription symbols and practice more by burning wealth."

"It's a cycle... just like how an Alchemist would face..."

Davis could not understand their plight on having to take numerous tries to succeed. After all, he did always succeed on two or three tries, on the basis if he had enough soul force.

"That's why most Inscription Masters actively try to sell their symbols for a low price, and in exchange, if the inscription symbol were useful, they would get recognized by the masses."

"For example, war is a good source of income for Inscription Masters..." Daniuis have a profound look at them before getting to the point of the class, after all, inscriptions were used in war to increase the army's entire survivability.

By increasing both their offense and defense, the soldiers would be able to trample over their equal counterparts in the warzone.

"Alright, yesterday, I gave you two Inscription Techniques, two different methods to create Inscriptions, have you decided on one?"

Claire spoke at this moment, "I tried both of the techniques and didn't find much difference except that we use soul force for the latter, rather than our essence energy."

Daniuis nodded his head, "There isn't much difference in terms of technique but the basis is different, so which of the two techniques do you prefer?"

Claire's brows furrowed before she answered according to what she experienced, "Using essence energy is easier and more manageable than using soul force... So I think I prefer the first method."

Daniuis chuckled and shook his head, "It's certainly easier to inscribe the lines and patterns that make up a symbol using essence energy but it isn't the same as doing with soul force. Why do you think so?"

Claire went silent but she was unperturbed, waiting for an answer.

At this time, Davis answered, "Because our souls naturally resonate with heaven and earth energy."

"Precisely!"

"The lines and patterns are symbols derived from Sky Word Language. It is rumored that these special characters from the Sky Word Language resonate with heaven and earth energy, and we Inscriptionists know that it is all true and can confirm it basically through inscribing Inscription Symbols."

"In Inscriptions, the symbol you inscribe resonates with heaven and earth energy and the materials you use become the foundation for the effects that the symbol would grant."

"The symbol you inscribe with essence energy still resonates with the heaven and earth energy, however, could it compare to the resonance that would reverberate when you use your soul force in tandem with the symbol of the Sky Word Language?"

Daniuis shook his head in lament, "This is why I think the field of Inscriptions hasn't caught up to the field of pill making."

"Of course, I am not the only one who is lamenting this fate, but everyone who learns Inscription and has this knowledge of using soul force to create symbols does lament from time to time."

"Unfortunately, even if we knew, so what? Compared to using essence energy to create symbols, using soul force would quickly deplete your reserves, even your will, making you lethargic enough to give up on creating Inscription Symbols."

"On the other hand, using essence energy does not affect your willpower much, which makes it easier, and flexible to create symbols."

"Rather than speaking, it is easier to demonstrate it practically."

Davis and the others listened intently, not leaving out any words that would cause them to misunderstand.

"Niece, since you have dabbed on the drawing techniques yesterday, demonstrate it for us. Draw a basic square that is capable of holding up for itself through resonance."

Claire nodded her head without hesitation and lifted up her index finger elegantly. She pointed it towards the air and moved her arms.

Her finger traced the empty air and drew a line, a horizontal line. The line was straight and elegant as she was, but the moment she took the next step, bringing her finger down vertically, the horizontal line which floated in the air broke and dispersed.

Claire furrowed her brows and tried again. She tried for a number of times, a total of twelve times before she formed a square-shaped symbol in the air.

Perspiration hung down on her forehead, and when she confirmed that the square-shaped symbol was able to hold it for itself in the air, she smiled and wiped the sweat off her forehead.

"Good! It is capable of maintaining itself in the air, waiting for further input or completion." Daniuis nodded his head in gratification.

Since the symbol was capable of maintaining itself for a short period of time, it meant that the inscription had achieved the minimum resonance with heaven and earth energy required to create a symbol.

Any wrong additional lines or even dots could cause it to collapse while the resonance fails as an end result.

"Now try using your soul force."

Claire nodded and did the same when using essence energy.

She used her soul force as ink and traced her finger in the empty air. She could feel her soul force quickly deplete, many times faster than her essence energy.

However, she also saw that her index finger followed a strict pattern of line, not shaking much. It was as if the symbol was using her hands to create itself when she was halfway done on drawing the line.

Noticing Claire's bewilderment, Danuius explained, "Yes, since our soul naturally resonates with the heaven and earth energy, our soul force helps us to make the latter half of the line easier, however, the draining of our soul force is massive and also makes us easily exhausted."

Claire listened and continued to draw the other three lines, making up the square-shaped symbol.

"Using soul force to create symbols can be rigid, but at the same time, as long you can possess a sufficient quantity of soul force while also controlling the exhaustion of soul force, conjuring symbols will be like a walk in the grassy plains."

When Daniuis's words ended, Logan and Claire turned to look at Davis at the same time. The only one who is incredibly adept at using soul force was none other than their son.
