The First Magic World War-Chapter 618 - 583, My name Hermes
Chapter 618: 583, My name: Hermes Chapter 618: 583, My name: Hermes The handsome librarian was also very curious.
If someone else had told him this, he surely wouldn’t have believed it, but Charles was able to endure all of the Great Emerald Library’s knowledge, and he said there was a possibility of granting “It” authority, there really was a certain probability.
He smiled slightly and said, “I am very willing to try.”
Charles scratched his head and said, “I need you to compile a book and deliver it to me for publishing.”
The handsome librarian asked, “What kind of book do you need me to compile?”
Charles immediately described the tools, rules, dozens of different ways to play, and various customs of playing Serpent of Destiny.
With a casual flick of his hand, the handsome librarian had a book that detailed all these rules.
After Charles had explained how to play Serpent of Destiny, he asked, “May I have your name?”
The handsome librarian smiled slightly and said, “Hermes!”
Charles was completely stunned!
He hesitated for a moment, then asked softly, “Did you create Classic Alchemy?”
Hermes nodded slightly and said, “The creation of a game, not worth mentioning!”
Charles suddenly felt a sense of great admiration.
This was the real deal!

...
Hermes, a follower of the God of Mechanics and Alchemy and founder of Classic Alchemy, was renowned for the Hermes magic system.
His sect’s highest masterpieces included the creation of artificial Deities, Antispace technology, and long-range sniper rifles – all products of Classic Alchemy.
He hadn’t founded a university but had served as a professor at Hattignen Thunder and Stormwind University, which is why all four universities offered courses in Classic Alchemy.
In terms of fame, he even surpassed Protagora, who had created Bloody Glory.
Charles deeply regretted having just treated this Great Philosopher of the Human Race as an ordinary librarian.
It was like the awkwardness one might feel upon meeting a professor who had compiled the textbooks years after graduating, especially if one had just shown off in front of them.
A little embarrassed, he continued, “Professor Hermes, I have also invented another game.
I hope to name it after you, calling it Hermes Cards!
It has fifty-four cards, with hundreds of ways to play: Guan Dan, Show Hand, Texas hold ’em, Digging a Huge Pit, Blackjack, Double buckle, Playing the queen, Exploding Ten, Fighting the Landlord!”
“But it can also be used for divining destiny, and performing magic tricks!”
Charles also introduced dice, Pai Gow, roulette, and other gaming tools.
The more Hermes heard, the more astonished he became.
He asked, “Do you hope that I write a book to obtain some form of divine office?”
Charles answered decisively, “God of Gambling!”
“God of Gambling and Games!”
“You will preside over worldly pleasure, and cunning skills.”
“I am also a decent fiction author.
I will republish my own novels, adding in the story that you wrote the ‘Complete Book of Gambling Techniques.'”
Hermes’s heart surged; he himself was a top Alchemist Master, even capable of creating Classic Alchemy and inventing his own magical system.
His knowledge was so vast, his insight so peerless, he even surpassed Juno.
Of course, he could fathom that the divine office Charles spoke of could very well become a reality.
He smiled faintly and said, “I’m afraid we need sales of over a hundred thousand to even slightly impact reality.”
Charles spoke of sales with a sudden surge of confidence and said, “Please do not worry, I have my own publishing house and bookstore, and I also have channels that can distribute to all nations of the Old Continent.”
This time, it was Hermes who was stunned.
He asked incredulously, “Can writers now establish their own publishing houses and run bookstores?”
Charles nodded slightly and said, “I have a small amount of assets, and I also value the cultural industry.”
Hermes remarked, “The younger generation will surpass us in time!”
Charles raised his hand to bid farewell to Master Mani and Hermes, as well as to those ancient alchemists who had been watching all along but had not revealed themselves.
He had finally realized that those who could enter the Great Emerald Book had been, “in life,” at least at the Sacred level peak—there were no weaklings here.
Shortly after Charles left, someone asked, “Can Charles’s method be successful?”
Someone quickly replied, “The odds of success are not low.”
Other people quickly joined in the discussion.
There was no entertainment in the Great Emerald Book except to read, discuss, and daydream!
Having something fresh to talk about, the group of ancient alchemists couldn’t help but voice their opinions.
Suddenly, a voice said, “Should we not try out those things he just invented?”
Someone used a spell and materialized a set of Serpent cards, and several figures emerged to try out the most orthodox method.
After dozens of people observed for a while and got itchy hands, they too materialized Serpent cards, and soon the crisp sound of snapping cards was heard throughout the Great Emerald Book Library.
“Pung, Mahjong, Kong…
who set off the firecracker?
Pure color…
missing terminals and honors, you’ve got an explosive win!”
Nobody knew how much time had passed when Hermes, with a strange expression, said, “It’s been…
just over ten days, right?”
Mani had been paying attention to him and asked, “What are you feeling?”
Hermes closed his eyes and suddenly changed into a paper black suit adorned with Serpent cards, Hermes cards, dice, roulette wheels, gambling tables, and other such tools, holding in his hand two dice and a deck of Hermes cards.
An awe-inspiring divine authority enveloped him, and not just Mani, almost everyone exclaimed, “Divine office!
The divine office of the God of Gambling and Games.”
Many ancient alchemists deeply regretted not having competed with Hermes for it.
If they had been just a little bit more proactive back then, wouldn’t they now possess the divine office of the God of Gambling?
At this time, Charles had quietly left the Holy Light Divine State Title and was in Mecklenburg arranging for the reprint and sale of his novel.
He had worked hard for more than ten days, and the new edition had been transported to the main countries of the Old Continent, but the sales had not yet been counted.
Charles thought to himself, “I wonder if this method will work?
If Hermes became the God of Gambling!
Perhaps he might appear at Hot Spring Mountain and the Holy Light Divine State Title.
Hot Spring Mountain is one thing, but if he could appear on the Holy Light Divine State Title, maybe he could help me suppress…”
“Suppress them?
Well, they haven’t caused any trouble for now!”
Charles looked towards the Mazon Kingdom and said to himself, “Perhaps I can give Zimmerman a massive surprise!”
Throughout the Old Continent, those who purchased the new edition of the novel would see the newly added content on a certain page: The Serpent of Destiny has two Subordinate Gods, one being the God of Gambling and the other the God of Joy!
The God of Gambling scurries all day through the entertainment venues set up by Duke Mecklen, maintaining these human sources of happiness!
Together with the God of Joy, he bears the responsibility for the Lord God’s daily joy…
Hermes was unaware that Charles had added a new identity for him, nor did he know that the scoundrel was trying to use PUA techniques on him…
