Falling Mage and the Power of Divergence

The Great Demon King Keith-Lucifer. Its name is Dacrya, no stranger. It's the previous Great Demon King and the man who disappeared twenty years ago.

"My father is the Demon King..."

"Was Saiya's dad such a celebrity!?

Seiya and D'Arta can't hide their surprise at the fact that Gilanel was informed. But it would naturally surprise me if they told me that my father was king of a nation.

"That's right. Your father, Master Keith, is my boss and the one I respect. But twenty years ago, he disappeared from this country neglectfully."

"And the emperor was born."

Though the fact of the shock, Seyya had accepted that fact at the bottom of her heart. Somewhere in my heart, I might have realized who my father was.

"I knew you were..."

Words that came out unconscious. Hearing the words, Arthur and Gillanell continue their conversation.

"Since Master Keith disappeared, I have taken the throne as Acting Great Demon King to stabilize this country. But no matter how much good I do, I'm a false king. I've been waiting. Master Keith's son, yes, Master Seiya."

Gilanel still believes. Saiya is the true king of the great empire of Dacrya.

"At the forthcoming Demon King's Conference I will withdraw from the throne of the Great Demon King. And I would like to recommend Saiya to the next Great Demon King."

Gilanel's idea is the Great Demon King of Seyya's assault name. But there was still a problem there.

"That's good, but the Emperor hasn't got the power of the night yet"

"What? Is that true, Master Seiya"

"Oh."

Asked by Gilanel, Seiya answers honestly.

The Great Demon King needs the magic of night attributes. Conversely, it is the night attributes that make it the Great Demon King.

"There you go, Gilanel. Tell the Emperor the night attributes."

"Hmm..."

Gillanell to take into account Arthur's demands. Because there was a corresponding risk to getting the power of the night.

"Dear Saiya, I'll be the first to say it. I can't use night attributes. So you can't teach me the night attributes. However, I know what it means to meet the night attributes."

Seiya's expression tightens on Gilanel's description.

"But night attributes, on the other hand, are quite risky to meet. Even my predecessor, Keith, got to meet after three days and three nights of training. Clearly, it's a pretty dangerous bet."

As Gilanel put it, night attributes carry risks. Precisely a high-risk high-return bet.

Seyya is strong enough even as it is now. If you change to Leiria, you have a status as a premier magician. You can also use dark attributes called heretical powers.

But that's not enough. Saiya lacks the strength to protect what she truly wants to protect. The power of the Extraordinary Mage level is not enough to protect what Seyya wants to protect. That's what the Great Demon King class needs.

It could be high risk, for sure. Still, Seyya has something she wants to protect. Seiya decided to be held. What do you want to do?

"Even if it's high risk... I want the power of the night"

"Hmm."

Arthur laughs happily at Saiya's answer.

"Really?"

Gilanel also feels ready for Seyya.

"Then let me tell you something. the means to gain the power of the night."

That's how Gilanel takes his seat and brings something. And spread it out on the table.

"Map?"

D'Arta's right, that's a map. But it looks pretty extensive and the Dacrya Great Empire is small.

"This is a map of this continent."

"Of the continent?

"Yes, this is Leiria, this is the Dacrea Empire"

Gilanel pointed to the left half of the map. In other words, as far away as the two points, the continent will be stretched.

"There are only three of these maps in the world. So it's a secret."

After finishing his description of the map, Gillanell just gets to the point.

"So it's a night attribute, but there's a big mountain a while west of Dacrea"

That's what Gilanel pointed to. A large mountain quite far from Dacrea. I guess the real thing is pretty big from the huge spot even if you look at it on the map.

"In this mountain there is a Spirit who presides over the Night Attribute and defeats that Spirit to gain the Night Attribute for the first time."

"Spirit..."

Saiya is amazed to hear the word Spirit in unexpected ways. Who would have guessed that I would be able to cross my sword with the Spirit again?

"The spirits here are spirits that enter dreams, and it is actually in dreams that we fight. Master Keith also fought this Spirit three days asleep and finally got his night attribute at the end of the day."

Battle in your dreams. I don't know what that's like, but I'm relieved to find clues to the night attribute, Seiya.

"If you go here, you'll have the power of the night."

"Yes, but..."

"Pretty tough, dude."

Gilanel's expression also gets harsher on Arthur's words.

"The Emperor seems to be fighting the Spirit once, but he's not of the same character as then. Many of these spirits don't speak the language. Even if it makes sense, it doesn't necessarily mean they'll talk."

"Exactly. Although we followed Master Keith, we haven't actually met the Spirit. There was only one Master Keith in the Spirit. We don't know how to fight it."

It's what the powerful people of all countries say. I guess it's pretty tough. But that's why Seyya couldn't have given up the power of the night attribute.

"Still, I want the night attribute"

Seyya's ready eyes. If I look into those eyes, I can't stop them anymore. That's what they thought.

"Ha, you have no choice. Gilanel."

"Right. Okay, Master Seiya."

Gilanel says so and takes a seat.

"I'll be ready now. Please wait."

Gilanel walked out of the room, the three left. So Arthur asks Dalta, who sits in the front.

"Are you going?

"Huh?"

Suddenly Dalta, who was told the story, didn't understand what it was about, but I immediately guess.

"Oh, of course. I'll take care of Seyya."

"It's dangerous, isn't it?

"I'm ready."

Look in Dalta's eyes, Arthur laughs.

"Hmm. Right."

Thus the journey for the night attributes was for the four of us.
