"Why, though? Why do I need to have a deeper comprehension of the blood rule's meaning to understand its capabilities? If I am not traveling the wrong path, I should have already understood what Blood rule's 'Fate Plunder' is and capable of, correct?" This I did not understand, which made me think the possibility that I may actually be traveling the wrong path and doubling down the current way of comprehension would only be a waste of time. Therefore I could not help but express my opinion to Anna. After all, she is the one who advised me to increase my mastery of the 'Fate Plunder' meaning before I planned to forge a rune. 

"You are not wrong to think that because nine times out of ten people in cases similar to yours are actually headed down the wrong way of comprehending their rule's meaning. But that remaining one case out of ten times, they are heading the right path of comprehension. As their mastery increased, they slowly began to grasp the ability and purpose of the rule's meaning they comprehended. 

When they comprehended the ability of their rule's meaning, they also realized that mastery of their rule's meaning was lacking earlier because the rule's meaning they chose to comprehend was very powerful. A higher level of mastery was required for the card apprentice to grasp its ability entirely. 

And I believe that you are also one of the one successful cases out of the ten. I think that the blood rule's meaning 'Fate Plunder' is a powerful and capable meaning which requires you to increase your mastery of the meaning to understand all its possibilities and genuinely grasp its ability. 

I am not trying to flatter you by saying this. I believe so because of cold hard facts. Namely, your Excellent grade ego gem with a high synchronization rate and the fact that you comprehended your blood rule and its meaning in Blood Rock Cave gate dungeon. As the sealed dungeon which housed a blood supreme for centuries, it should have become the holy place of blood rule. 

Seeing the facts, I can say with certainty that the blood rule's meaning 'Fate Plunder' is a very high-level meaning, and it requires a high level of mastery for you to uncover what it actually is capable of. Therefore, I suggested you continue with your way of comprehension and increase the mastery of your blood rule's meaning. 

Even if you have doubts about my words, at least trust the facts like the high synchronization rate of your ego gem and dense concentration of blood rule in the Blood Rock Cave." Anna took her time to explain why she thought I should continue down my current way of comprehension and increase my mastery of blood rule's meaning because she believed the meaning 'Fate Plunder' was a high-level meaning requiring higher mastery. 

"Hold up. There are levels in the rule's meaning too? How are they divided into levels, based on what? Strength? I thought all the meanings were the same in terms of power, and it is only the card apprentice harnessing that power who had varying strength." At the bifurcation point I belived this to be true and did not discriminate with other meanings and gave each shade of meaning a fair shot.

"You are right. There are no strong or weak Rules and meanings but weak Card apprentices and strong card apprentices. 

Yes, the Rule's meaning does have levels, and these levels are not based on their strength but their rarity. Most people do not care about these shallow levels because in card fights, the rarity of a rule's meaning does not matter, but the capability of the case apprentices. So do not become complacent just because you have a high synchronization rate that allows you to comprehend a rule's meaning with a higher rarity level." Anna explained that the higher synchronization rate of my ego gem allowed me to come in contact with rare meanings of rules that many do not get a chance to comprehend but also warned me that in an actual card fight, the rarity of rules meaning did not matter. 

Apparently, not every card apprentice comprehending a rule gets millions of meanings to choose from at the bifurcation point of the rule. Because the number meanings at the bifurcation point of rule depend on two things, 

1. The grade of Card apprentices ego gem. Which is based on the synchronization rate of the ego gem. 

2. The concentration, availability, and accessibility of the rule stream of the particular rule that the card apprentice decides to comprehend at that location. 

Thanks to Bloodette's blood rock cave, I was able to gain access to millions of meanings in Blood rule. If not for that, even I, with my near-perfect synchronization rate, would not have been able to gain access to so many meanings and grasp a rare meaning like 'Fate Plunder.' 

"Interesting. Though rarity does not mean that the meaning is strong, it does mean that it has a unique and unseen perspective of that particular rule. Right? Making it unpredictable in a fight. Do you have a rule with rare meaning?" I did not know how powerful fate plunder was but considering its relationship with Parent and Daughter skill of dungeon calamity seed. I believe it has to be a damn unique one. As far as I have seen, if we explore all the possibilities of these unique meanings, we can forge some powerful and special runes. Therefore I could not help but wonder if Anna had such a meaning. If she did, it meant the Heatsend family also has holy places to comprehend rules. 

"Yes, I do have a few rare meanings of two rules. And yes, my family has a few holy places. But the synchronization rate of my ego gem only showed the highest compatibility with two holy places. If it is you, I guess you will be compatible with most of the holy places." Anna saw right through my intentions of trying to get information on how many holy places the Heatsend Royal Family had.
