ways in solving his problems. She looked into his eyes.
“Isnt J. a much more powerful magus than you are?” “Much wiser,” Paulo answered. “Much more experienced. He follows the
path of the farmer, and it is on that path that he finds his power. Ill be able to achieve my power only by following the path of the hunter.”
“Well then, why did he accept you as a disciple?” Paulo laughed. “For the same reason that you chose me as a husband.
Because were different from one another.” 178 The last evidence is during the first meeting between Paulo and The
Valkyries. For the first meeting, Paulo and the leader of The Valkyries give their magic name. Every magus has his or her magic name. It is believed that the magus
can really strong and release their power when they use their magic name. It is secret name that only very few people know that secret. In this case Paulo believes that
Valhalla is the one who can be trusted. Only those who are trustworthy are allowed to know the magic name. In this quotation below, it explains that Paulo is a magus that
has a magic name S and Valhalla has a magic name M. The Valkyries held out her hand to Paulo.
“My name is M.,”she said. “My name is S.,” Paulo answered.
Chris was startled. Paulo had given his magic name Very few people knew the secret, since the only way to cause a certain kind of evil to a magus is
using his magic name. Only those who were completely trustworthy who were allowed to know the name. 84
4.1.2. An Adventurer
Paulo is also an adventurer person. Since he is a magus, he likes doing something strange. The evidences can be seen in this quotation below, his wife feels

magical things, such as: looking for sacred pathways, swords, rituals, and looking for his guardian angel.
I should have married an engineer, she said to herself. She had never gotten used to his life–taking off suddenly, looking for
sacred pathways, swords, conversing with angels, doing everything possible to move further along the path to magic.
He has always wanted to leave everything behind. 11
In this case, Paulo leaves everything behind to seek his guardian angel. He meets with the Valkyries. He has really known the leader of the Valkyries, Valhalla.
During their time in searching his guardian angel, he has the opportunity to know Valhalla well. They really trust each other because they have given their secret or
magic name. In one moment, Paulo stands alone in the desert and thinks about Valhalla. He thinks that Valhalla is just a fantasy. She is a woman who has conversed
with her own guardian angel. Now, she lives in the dangerous desert with her legion. Paulo thinks that Valhalla recognizes him as a magus who knows about the occult
mysteries, an adventurer who can leave everything behind to seek his guardian angel. He is an adventurer who takes a risk to seek his guardian angel in the dangerous
desert. Valhalla was a fantasy. The warrior woman, the huntress. The woman who
conversed with angels, and was ready to run any risk in order to surpass her limits. For her, Paulo was the man who wore the ring of the Tradition of the
Moon, the magus who knew about the occult mysteries. The adventurer, capable of leaving everything behind to go out in search of angels. Each
would always be fascinated by the other–so long as each remained exactly what the other imagined. 192-193
