PS. Linker Core "eating" as main function of information gathering for non-corrupted BoD look stupid anyway. It's owner would be quickly hunted and killed if it were so, even in Old Belka time... or especially in Old Belka time.

Yes, Hayate could learn how to use someone else's ability, but that's not using it as part of her Rare Skill?

Are we talking about Vivio being able to use Adult Mode? Or how because she has the blood of the Sankt Kaiser, she inherited the same abilities, most notably the Sankt Kaiser armour? Because they had some fun times back then, gene splicing and whatnot.
More like what al103 means is that there are other ways to learning a spell besides absorbing a linker core, and that there's more to her rare skill than what has been shown so far?

I won't rule that out IMO, since the Tome of the Night Sky was originally intended to archive spells instead of outright draining a linker core (which sounds like an extreme end of what it can do).

Another possibility is that given that the linker core is the "organ" which enables spells to happen in the universe, and connecting that fact with the ability to activate spells from other systems, the Tome can replicate another magic system's (Mid's) mode of mana linking artificially just like a heart-lung machine, which definitely requires an existing linker core to model off of, just that the Tome is supposed to return the core relatively intact after replicating said spell's linking conditions or something.

HEARTTTTTT. I thought it was cute.
Fitting... I must say. Giving artificially constructed being the power of "soul". Fic writers will have a ball with this.
