They were set in such a way that one cosmic coin was equal to one mana stones, with the circulation of more than ten billion cosmic coins.
And they can exchange for more cosmic coins from Thea using mana stones.
This system was many times more portable and easy than bartering and using mana stones.

Back to Rem and Light.
Rem carried the soul of Light to the Divine Library. The library was filled with glowing orbs all over the hall, and the ends of the hall were not even visible, as if it was a never-ending hall.
After an hour or so, Light opened his eyes and looked all around him. His eyes stopped at Rem, and he said, -Greetings, Seer Rem. I apologize for all the wait.-
���-No worries, you had eight hours in the library and you already used an hour, so you now have 7 hours left,- Rem said, chuckling.
���-Damn, I should get moving then,- Light said, and started moving towards the shelves.
Rem kept her eyes on him and laughed in her mind.
After a few minutes, Light returned and said, -Seer Rem, can you help me find these books?- He then told her the topics, and Rem, this time, listened to each and every request and took Light there.
���After seven hours of collecting knowledge on all kinds of techniques and spells, Light finally heaved a sigh.
-The knowledge here is so vast, even my lifetime would fall short to learn all these,- Light said, as he looked at the time on the system panel.
-The seven hours already ended. Where is Seer Rem?- He said and looked around the library.
���Today, he had learned over 50 spells and many fighting techniques in just seven hours.
He walked around the library, and after a few minutes of walking, he found a door.
He didn���t wanted to touch something in the divine library, but curiosity got the better of him, and he knocked on the door.
Suddenly, a deep and calm voice sounded from the inside, -You may enter, Light.-
Chapter 95: Ch 95 : what do you want?
Light Celestine, the successor of the royal family of Celestine and the future leader of the Cosmic Empire, entered the room after receiving permission from the man inside.
As the heavy door swung open, the first thing Light saw was a human male with a flowing white beard and a pristine white blindfold with golden patterns.
There was a unique, scholarly charm to this senior, as if he knew everything and was not surprised by anything.
Both of them looked at each other, one looked with his eyes while the other with his heart.
-Greetings, senior,- Light said, his voice respectful. He wasn���t sure who this man was, but he could feel a profound sense of knowledge radiating from him.
-Greetings, Light Celestine,- the senior replied, his voice calm and deep. -What made you knock on the door to my room?- He said as he picked an empty sheet from a drawer.
-I apologize for disturbing you, senior. I was just curious about the existence of a room in the divine library,- Light said, but just then, his mind noticed something.
-How did you know my name, senior?- Light questioned. It wasn���t an inquiry or anything; he was just genuinely curious about the methods of this mysterious senior.
-Oh, that���s just a minor trick,- the senior replied, a soft chuckle escaping his lips.
-Are you a Knowledgeable Seer? You seem to know everything, just like the myths go for the knowledgeable seers,- Light asked curiously.
He was just sixteen years old, thus his mind was always filled with a desire to learn.
-You can say so if you want to. I am actually more interested about knowing your future plans, like what do you want?- the senior said, a glint of curiosity in his eye.
-What I want?- Light pondered, his thoughts wandering from the expectations of his father and mother to the teachings of his grandfathers.
-You don���t need to give an immediate reply. Just start thinking about it slowly, and when you have an answer, just message Rem about it,- the senior said, and then clapped his hands.
Immediately upon this gesture, Rem entered the room and used her Soul Plucker talent to take the soul of Light back to Veridia.
On the way, Light said to Rem, -Seer Rem, who was that senior?- His mind was still filled with the memories of this senior who both looked and sounded mysterious.
-Oh, that senior you say? He is my master, the demigod of knowledge, Isiah,- Rem said, chuckling.
She hadn���t realized that Light was unaware of the person he was talking with.
Light felt shocked, as he hadn���t seen all the demigods yet.
He had only seen the demigods of humans and elves. Other than that, he had only taken a glance of the guardian of Veridia and the demigod of dragons, Nova.
Apart from them, he was oblivious to the other demigods, that���s why he didn���t realize it was Isiah all along.
-Aren���t you a lucky fellow, having a chat with a demigod?- Rem said as she placed her hand on the ethereal shoulder of Light.
In just a few minutes, both of them were back at Veridia.
Rem was about to place the soul back into the body, but just then, Light moved on his own and entered his body himself.
In just a few seconds, he woke up, this time through his body.
-How did you do that?- Rem questioned, as it was not possible for anyone to connect back to the body from the soul form without a soul talent.
And the last time she checked, Light only had the talents for Magic Affinity, Comprehension, Magic Swordsmanship, and Elementalist.
He didn���t possess any talent for souls. -Unless.- Rem trailed off, the realization hitting her like a thunderbolt.
-Did you comprehend a talent related to the soul during your epiphany?- Rem questioned in a shocked gaze.
-Yes, I guess. I need to check it, though,- he said as he shook his head.
Rem, still in shock, said her good-byes and went back to the divine library.
Back in Light���s room, he sat on his bed, his mind replaying the conversation with Isiah.
-What is my future path? What do I want?- He kept repeating these questions.
The answer could be simple for many, like they needed power or money, but for Light, who was not an ordinary person, it was much more complicated.
He was from the royal family of Celestine and had a high chance of becoming the next leader of the Cosmic Empire.
His goals couldn���t be ordinary; he needed to know what he wanted the most.
He kept on pondering and finally, after an hour or so, he fell asleep.
Back in the Divine Library, Isiah, the demigod of knowledge, looked at the sheet of paper he had picked up earlier.
It was now no longer empty; it contained an image that depicted a person having two ways. One led him to a desolate, dark place, which looked a lot like hell, while the other led him to a beautiful, sun-drenched place, which looked a lot like heaven.
-What a talented fellow,- Isiah said, his voice filled with admiration. -I hope you take the right path in this life.-
Somewhere else, in a different world, a half-orc looked at a digital panel that appeared in front of him.
Mission accomplished.
You have gained a lottery chance �����������������������������������������������.������������
-Spin it,- he said, and then prayed to the Gods to bless him with good luck.
Upon his command, the system panel showed the wheel rotating, and it finally landed on the button of blessings.
Congratulations! You have received a blessing from God Cosmos
The blessing of Reality Talk (SS-Grade)
The half-orc looked at the SS-Grade with wide eyes, as this was the first talent that he had gotten from the system that was SS-Grade.
According to the knowledge he had gained from the system, this SS-Grade talent meant his limits had been increased to the demigod realm.
And also this was his first time to gain a talent from a God, while the other time he only got the talent from a demigod or so.
