Hu Qi, however, had never received detailed information on this topic from Ired.
Upon hearing this, Ophelia glanced at Hu Qi, seemingly lost in thought.
After a moment, she finally spoke.
"The importance of Mystical Knowledge to a Professional is self-evident.
However, since this was Ired's dying request...
I'll tell you what I can about Professionals."
She paused here before continuing.
"Do you know where Professionals come from?"
Hu Qi's eyes shifted.
"From the gods?"
He had heard something about this from Ired before.
But it wasn't detailed.
"More or less, but not entirely."
Ophelia smiled.
"There are numerous Professional paths in this world. Some originate from the gods, while others come from those Evil Gods and other unknown, high-level beings.
The vast majority, however, are the result of Professionals themselves exploring the unknown, studying Extraordinary Creatures, and conducting all sorts of experiments."
"The number of paths is truly beyond imagination."
