He reasoned that, since the bloodline limit of the snake is first order, then by using the bloodline meditation, he might be able to promote to become a first order bloodline wizard.
But creating a bloodline meditation method is no easy task, even with the innate spirit rune.
Even though innate spirit rune is the core of the bloodline meditation method, for a complete meditation method it needs more than that.
Then comes a problem, to arrange the blood fusion ritual, Robin’s great grandfather already emptied his total net worth.
To create a brand new meditation method, even with the innate spirit rune, it require massive amount of experiments.
So he founded the Oswald family to conduct experiments and to study the effect of the bloodline on his descendants.
After all the bloodline he fused belong to a brand new creature that broke through genetic limit due to a series of coincident.
Years later when his first child was born, he discovered that, even though the child was abnormally strong but bloodline concentration of the child was nowhere near the level that a second generation bloodline wizard should have.
Even after years of experiments he failed to find what caused this and he was unwilling to further experiment on his child.
It is very hard for wizards to give birth to children and for bloodline wizards it much harder give birth.
Some powerful bloodline wizards even have reproductive isolation. It took many years for him to give birth to this child and he very much cherished the child.
The shadow snake breathing method that belong to Oswald family was created by him during his years of experiments.
That is reason why people without Oswald family blood cannot practice it.
After many years of hard work he finally created a meditation method but he also discovered that, because it took many years to create the meditation method, his spirit is already started to decline due to old age.
Even though his lifespan was longer than apprentice wizards, he was still not an official wizard and he did not get any feedback in terms of spirit in the blood fusion ceremony.
By the time he realized his mistake he was already in death bed and since his children and grandchildren at the time does not have wizard talent, without no one to pass on his inheritance, he passed away in despair.

In the last pages of the diary, he mentioned how unwilling he was to die without passing his lifelong work to a worthy inheritor. He also says in the diary that, if any of his descendant were to read this diary, that means he has wizard talent, if so, all he asks was don’t let his inheritance go to waste.
After thinking of his last words in the diary Robin let out sigh.
“Don’t worry grandpa, I won’t let your work go waste”.
After fully reading the diary he now know what are the other two things he got from the space bag were.
The black book with Oswald family logo on it is the bloodline meditation method created by his great grandfather.
The black orb is called a memory orb, which is a commonly used item by wizards to record spell model.
It can directly imprint spell model on mind of the user.
Normal memory orb found on the academy can be used only once but the memory orb he has is of higher grade than the normal one and it can be used multiple times.
It contains a 0-ring spell created by his great grandfather. It is derived from the innate spirit rune of the shadow snake. The spell is called shadow cloak.
Shadow cloak is one of his great grandfather’s proud work. It is spell used for hiding and escaping from the enemy, with the help of this spell you can hide yourself in the shadows present around your surroundings.
It can even be called a pseudo first level spell because, unless your opponent is a first level wizard, in the apprentice stage it is difficult find you when you are using the spell.
Its disadvantage being, it hard for apprentice to maintain it for long time. Unless you are a first level wizard, it is harder to maintain it for longer duration.
It due to its high magic power requirement. Normally it is tasteless spell for an apprentice but for those with bloodline of shadow snake or any other shadow attribute creature it is a lifesaver.
Since the spell’s strong connection with the innate spirit rune of the shadow snake, it is easier for those with similar bloodline to learn and maintain the spell for long period of time.
Stronger the bloodline, easier it is to learn the spell and also require less magic power to maintain it.
After learning this, Robin become excited, if what is written on the diary is true, then, he might get a trump card that can be used throughout his apprentice period.
Since he is a level 1 apprentice, he can inscribe one 0-ring spell in his mental space. He plans to inscribe shadow cloak as his first 0-ring spell.
For every realm in apprentice stage, volume of the mental space doubles in size and a first class wizard apprentice can learn one 0-ring spell. That means, a second class apprentice can learn total three 0-ring spell and a third class apprentice can learn upto nine 0-ring spell.
Generally students in the academy only starts learn spell after becoming a second class apprentice because, first of all there won’t any danger for first class apprentice in the academy, so there is no need.
Second reason is, learning spells is expensive and time consuming. To learn a spell, you have master corresponding knowledge of the domain the spell belongs.
For example, to shadow cloak, Robin have master knowledge related to shadow domain like, principles of elemental particles and basics of shadow elements so on.
To obtain knowledge, you have to spend magic stones, monthly allowance for first class apprentice given by the academy is only 5 magic stones, which is barely enough for daily meditation.
