583 What Failure Really Means

"These words… How did I not realize them sooner?" the old man questioned himself in a daze.

"What is your name?" Lawrend asked.

"My name is Saturn Vorqest. I'm truly inferior compared to you, Your Imperial Majesty," Saturn answered and lowered his head.

He came to understand why Lawrend was so powerful. Unlike them, he was willing to take risks.

Lawrend looked away from Saturn and gazed at the other Earth Mages. He said, "Do all of you know why failure is a good thing?"

"Because it allows us to find success?" a middle-aged lady answered.

"Not really. Failure is a tool to see if your answer was correct. Whether it is to create your own spell, brew a potion, or draw a magic formation. It allows you to challenge what is possible.

"If you are always succeeding, are you sure that your success is the perfect answer? What if there is something better? How would you ever know if you don't try failing?" Lawrend uttered slowly and patiently.
