Black Summoner

”Hiccup, hiccup... eek...”

A girl was crying in a space filled with light. What is she sad about being in such a bright and hopeful space? Crying, the girl seemed to be looking at the lower realm reflected under the clear floor. The girl's name was Rem Tiagate. A great man loved by the world to the end and dedicated to everyone to the end. However, her figure, which was supposed to have died of old age, belonged to the girl as mentioned above.

{... you're Rem Tiagate, aren't you? What are you crying about? I hear you've gathered beliefs comparable to gods while you're in the lower realms, and brought peace to the world for a while. And now you have climbed to the highest level of the realm of God. Your achievements were recognized by God. Is there any reason to be proud of yourself, or to shed tears forever? ”

It was the blind man who spoke to Rem who kept crying. As if only the face had been magically erased or covered by the will of the world, the man's face could not be revealed even when faced from the front. All he could understand was that he had a strong body and was exerting a strange power mixed with divinity and scandal. In addition, he had an overwhelming sense of existence that if he was a God of the same order, he would immediately fall flat on the spot.

"Ehhh, ughh......"

Even though he had spoken to him, Lem did not answer anything, but merely wept.

”Fufu, even in front of me, do you penetrate your own emotions? It's disrespectful, disrespectful, and disconnectable, no matter how child you are.”

The cold, frozen voice made Lem's body tremble. Then the man reached out to Lem --- and placed his hand gently on her head.

”But that's why I liked it. Rumor has it he's a young man with a stronger heart than he looks. Rem Tiagate, your emotions are caused by that tragedy that happened in the lower realm after you died.”

I felt like my eyes were looking at the same view as Lem's. His voice is as cold as ever. However, the warmth from my hands didn't feel strange or unpleasant.

Eww... me, me...!

”... I see. The world loved me and turned me into a light, but it was my fault.”

What Lem and the man saw was a ruined world with corpses rolling around. Where the once peaceful world has disappeared, there is hell as far as the eye can see. It wasn't a fight. No war between nations, no terrorism by anyone. However, people were losing their lives of their own volition. Suicide, self-harm, self-determination - there will be many words to guess at, but the results will all be the same. People were bidding farewell to the world, driven by a sense of despair.

"I-I-I 'm sorry... I wanted to use that power...!"

... the power of domination?

Immediately after his birth in the world as a baby, Lem unconsciously used certain abilities. That was what the man called the power of [control] - literally putting the people around him under his own control.

With tears, Lem begins to chatter. It seems that Lem noticed the existence of this power when his ego was just beginning to sprout. When he was born, Lem only had experience of being kind to people, and he had never done anything like being scolded or angry. Even if it was, it was a refinement to see the king and the minister making jokes.

'Did you make the same mistake again!? How many times do I have to tell you!? ”

I'm sorry, too...

That's why I was so shocked when someone in the castle encountered a scene that was reprimanded by its boss. At the same time as I was shocked, I also felt this way.

... I don't know why you say such a terrible thing. I wish the world would be kind and happy to everyone.

I'm sorry, I said too much! You're doing great! It's my responsibility to do too much work!

No, the captain is working harder than I am! I was immature!

Immediately after she thought so, the reprimand stopped and everyone smiled. It is a handshake of rapprochement, a heartfelt apology, and a flowing speed resolution.

As soon as I saw Lem-sama's figure, I noticed his stupid behavior!

The liturgy is Lem-sama! I will work harder than ever before!

Lem was very satisfied when he was told that. I was glad to be praised, but above all, they seemed happy. Then, I encountered a similar scene and solved it in the same way---that's how I realized the existence of this power at a young age. And I thought, maybe we could use this power to intervene in the problem and make more people happy.

The more the body grew and the stronger the desire for peace, the more powerful Lem's power evolved. The range of abilities that could only be applied to the periphery of the castle gradually extended beyond the castle town, to the neighboring town, to the peripheral village, and finally the entire domestic territory was under the control of Rem. Since the death of Lem's father, the King of Giants, his abilities have become even more prominent, and the land of Giants has been annexed by other countries, eventually becoming a superpower with vast territory.

"...... I become a light and a guide for people. He who shows the way of life will do righteousness. There will be no enemies, no wicked people, and there will be no strife. I see, it's a perfect world. As long as you're alive."

”I... told everyone to do the same thing after I died......”

"Huh? You remember the sense of crisis, and you were taking measures?" However, with the commandment of speech, it seems that I could not save them from the despair of losing you. "

The man said. Rem in that world was like the sun. Because the light of the sun exists, people can feel hope and joy in life. You can keep walking towards the sun. But what if the sun, which played a great role, suddenly disappeared one day? Yeah, you don't have to think about that. Despair. Their world is filled with despair.

”With your death, they were free from the power of domination. No, it's better to say that you've been released. Every day full of hope, those who tasted it once with your power could no longer choose to live without it. I couldn't forgive a world like this without you, who loved more than anyone else in the family. That's why they died just like you, trying to travel to the next world. Dreaming of hanging out with you again,”

………

--- Sobbing (diapers), tears overflowing and unstoppable. My throat is hot and I don't hear much sadness. Lem, who had been pushed by a man, had exceeded his earliest acceptable limit.

”I-I-I-I-I-I-I...”

It's too late to regret it now, it's too late for everything. I shouldn't have wanted it. You shouldn't have drowned in power. When I was born in that world, I should have been abandoned by everyone.... all the regret is coming and crushing Lem's heart.

... but a ray of light shines on her like that.

That world is dying now. But it's not your fault. Rather, you've done well. While being human, he also guided the people in the lower realm well. I'll tell you again from my mouth. It was a big deal. ”

... what?

Unexpectedly, it was that mysterious man who helped Lem save his life. Arrogant, impertinent, vulgar, but very powerful, the man affirmed Lem.

"Ah, what the hell are you...?"

"There's so much ignorance that you don't know me. But I'll tell you what. My name is Adams, and I am the great one, Adams. Remember it well."
