Vaan gradually learned Ruby was indeed a female Fire Spirit. Even so, Ruby was just happy to be given any True Name at all.

After all, Name Bestowal allowed her to raise a rank.

"Fyuu, fyuu~!" Ruby flapped her tiny wings excitedly.

After she became a Mid-rank Fire Spirit, she gained a new ability, which allowed her to absorb a portion of the fire damage Vaan received.

And if the fire damage wasn\'t too much for her, she could turn it into her own power and grow.

Suddenly, Topaz jumped out of Vaan\'s body and landed in front of Ruby. Then, she studied Ruby from top to bottom before giving her a pompous look while patting her chest.

"Kyuu!"

Topaz welcomed Ruby into the crew before claiming she was the big boss and that Ruby had to listen to her.

"Fyuu?" Ruby tilted her head, wondering why she had to listen to her. She didn\'t believe Topaz.

As such, Topaz wanted to assert her dominance by bringing out her trusty sidekick to back up her claim.

However, Emerald was reluctant to come out after being called.

"Kyuu!" Topaz grumbled with annoyance before she went back into Vaan\'s body to drag Emerald out forcefully despite her resistance and protest.

As a result, Emerald\'s small body lit on fire and started burning the moment she came out of Vaan\'s body.

"Myuu, myuu!" Emerald cried, overpowering Topaz to hurry back inside Vaan\'s body for refuge.

"Tia, no bullying Mera," Vaan warned.

"Fyuu, fyuu!" Ruby pranced around Topaz, singing a rhythmic tune, "No bully, no bully!"

Topaz immediately sulked.

…

Nevertheless, after Vaan interacted with his contracted spirits for some time, he shifted his attention to the wall of flames.

Before dismissing the dragon lords, he had informed them that he would be training in the fourth stage for a period of time.

[It seems you are ready to perceive the Fire Law through my flames, Vahn. However, I must remind you that these golden flames of mine are the culmination of three hundred years of understanding the Fire Law.]

[Although I believe you would achieve swifter progress in your understanding if you start with lower-level flames, it doesn\'t look like you\'ll listen to me. As such, I can only wish you good luck.]

The Quasi-Divine Fire Spirit spoke with a hint of pessimism.

It believed the Fire Law hidden within its golden flames was too complex for Vaan to perceive and understand and that he was biting more than he could chew.

As such, the Quasi-Divine Fire Spirit was also looking forward to seeing Vaan fail to perceive the secrets of its golden flames.

Vaan might be the more peerless genius Flamewing had ever seen, but even geniuses needed to experience setbacks and eat humble pies in order to grow even further.

Blind arrogance and confidence had always been the downfall of many geniuses.

…

Nevertheless, after Vaan removed his clothes and sat in the golden flames, he closed his eyes and entered meditation.

Although he had shut off his vision, his Omni-Sense expanded to the limit, easily covering the region of golden flames and beyond.

However, he soon contracted his Omni-Sense, compressing it to only focus on the region of golden flames.

While the universal law of fire was ever-present and encompassing, it was also usually elusive and out of touch.

Only beings with strong affinity and perception could sense them.

But even if the universal law of fire could be perceived in the atmosphere, it is not necessarily understood.

As such, perceiving visible sources of fire, where the universal law of fire is most present, was the simplest method to understand it.

Vaan tried to perceive the Fire Laws within the Quasi-Divine Fire Spirit\'s golden flames, but the concept of laws was new to him.

It was the domain of divine beings and where they drew their near-infinite power.

Nevertheless, Vaan questioned the origin of laws.

Had they always existed during the formation of the world, or were they created by a much higher-level being? Why couldn\'t mortals sense them? Why were they invisible to the naked eye?

Why was their presence only known when one\'s soul reached a higher state?

As Vaan pondered the questions in the Quasi-Divine Fire Spirit\'s golden flames, he gradually formed his own idea on the matter.

The reason mortals couldn\'t see the universal laws wasn\'t due to the universal laws being invisible. They simply had no substance, just like a dream; it only existed in the mind.

So then, what exactly is the Fire Law?

Vaan believed the Fire Law was a cumulation of all spiritual beliefs on the concept of fire, and the same applied to all other laws.

After all, he doubted a Sword Law existed before the very first sword\'s creation.

\'Universal laws are the power of beliefs… By understanding the world\'s cumulative belief in a certain element, people can tap into its power…\'

\'Flamewing can summon golden flames because that\'s his own understanding and interpretation of the world\'s cumulative belief of fire.\'

The Quasi-Divine Fire Spirit strongly believed golden flames were hotter than normal red flames. Thus, golden flames manifested.

\'What is the hottest form of fire to me?\' Vaan mused.

He lost track of time while he meditated.
