Falling Mage and the Power of Divergence

A few minutes before the hour went back, a single boy appeared in the city's checkpoint, known as the Dead City. Unlike the people wearing cold clothes around him, the boy was wearing a uniform that looked cold to see. But the uniform was naturally cold proof because it belonged to the School of Magic, and it withstood the cold in the dead city.

The boy's name is Zill-Nefra. He is one of the notable magicians who will be the son of the premier magician Ifriel-Nefla to carry the next generation of Leiria. It is no exaggeration to say that his father, Yfriel, has considerable visibility, especially in the underlying Frestan.

Why such a zill is in this city of death, it has to do with the truth about this world I heard more than Riger did the other day. Shortly after I heard that story, I lost my words to the size of that scale. But Ifriel, my father, reacted in the same way, so it's not that Zill's reaction is particularly strange.

If Jill had heard the story in rumours, etc., he would have cut it off by saying that he was leaving immediately. Even if I called it in the literature, it would have been laughable to say it was the author's paranoia or pictorial affairs.

However, Zill was unable to take such a reaction. Because if it wasn't a rumor or, it wasn't a book, it was heard by the premier magician Riger-Arunya, who had the same title as his venerable father. And there was also a verse in that story that Zill thought of, and could not be truncated as paranoid.

But that wasn't the end of Riger's story. After listening to the story, Ryger has asked Yfriel to help. Ifriel, who understood that the request was addressed not to the Ifriel individual, but to the Nefra family, reluctantly replied and put it on hold on the spot. Because no matter how much the decision was, it was not easy to make.

Riger, who had known beforehand that Ifriel would get lost, did not ask for an on-the-spot reply, but gave him a week or so of respite to leave the Nefra family behind. A discussion ensued at the Nefra family, but Zill did not participate in the discussion.

The reason is simple. Because I knew Zill's esteemed father would come to Riger's request. The two have been warrior friends since they were younger, and even from Zill's point of view, we know exactly how close they are. I couldn't imagine such a conflict between a friend and my father. I thought perhaps my father was worried about the clan. Jill told my father of her own determination and left the house.

That determination is what goes to the Dark Realm.

But when I tried visiting the northern end of the interrogation post to get to the dark realm, things didn't go so well.

"So you're forced to decide!

"Why"

"It's up to you because you're really not sure you're that Ifriel-Nefla son! I don't need a reason to stop him from dying."

A large official stands in front of Zill and blocks the way, who knows his forged flesh well even from the top of his uniform. Zill, who from earlier claims to be the son of the premier magician Yfriel-Nefla, is never dealt with. Apparently, Zill's face is not known in this city.

While Jill is bewildered by unexpected events, she tries to somehow get to the dark realm. The worst case scenario is Jill, who won't even quit exercising his powers. Wild horses sniffing such a sinister atmosphere gather around. Inside it's like, "Is that a duel? It is well understood that this is a meritocratic region around those who expect it," etc.

"Hey, what's going on!

That was the time. Real and Basil showed up before Zill.

Officials rushing to salute the two appearances. The wild horses who were around also stare breathlessly at the sudden advent of the big man.

Actually, this kid wants to go to the Dark Realm.

"In the dark? Why not?"

Basil gives me the look of surprise when I hear from an official. It was basil that we expected anyone else to go out into the dark realm at this time, but just as Jill was unexpected, because in his head all he had was the idea that it would be the Yours.

"It is decided. He's the only one."

"Hey, you! This is the Thirteenth Apostle!

"No, I don't mind. This boy is the son of Lord Yfriel."

He was an official who tried to blame him for his disrespect for Basil, but he is immediately stopped by Basil. On the contrary, he seems surprised to learn that Zill is really the son of that premium magician Yfriel-Nefla.

Real keeps talking without worrying about those officials.

"That guy..."

"It's Christina-Saya."

"I see. Do you have the same purpose as us?"

"What do you mean?

"We're the same. I'm gonna go join him."

I can't hide my surprise in Real's answer, Zill. From what Reiger told me, because I did not think that the thirteen apostles of the Episcopal Church would join Seyya. What the hell kind of blow is that? Such a question arises in the zill. But it was the same with Basil and Real. I don't see why Jill is going to Seyya's addition.

As the two question each other, an officer of the inquest asks Basil.

"Um, what the hell is this..."

Looking over, the wild horses there are also listening. There's no way I wouldn't be interested if they were chasing someone like that, even though just two of the thirteen apostles and the son of a superior magician would get my attention. The example doesn't seem to tell the city about Seyya either. On the contrary, as far as their reaction is concerned, it also appears that the matter of the Reals' treason has not been communicated.

But we can't go any further here.

Anyway, it's convenient if the treason hasn't been communicated. That's what I thought. Basil declares that once he coughs, he can hear the wild horses around him.

"We must be in darker territory on a mission than this. With that, our Episcopal Church asked the Nefra family based in the region of Frestan to cooperate, and it was up to them to send Lord Zill, the son of our Lord. We would like you to understand that this matter requires special measures of urgency."

Officials who heard Basil's explanation rush to salute him. Immediately afterwards, we scattered in all directions to prepare for the mission, and less than half an hour later, horses and luggage were prepared for three.

And the three succeed in traveling safely to the dark realm.

Shortly after leaving the city of death, all three were silent. But where the city of death is no longer visible, Jill opens her mouth.

"So, what kind of blow is that? Why would you thirteen apostles help him?

"We flipped an anti-flag against the Episcopal Church."

"What!?

Zill surprised by Basil's description. But realizing that's true because Real also has a serious look on his face.

"So, you're the one. How could you help him?

"I... no, we Nefras got a request for help from the special magician Riger-Arunya"

"Request for cooperation?

"That's right. He wants me to be on his side with the new extraordinary magician, Christina Seyya."

I heard Jill explain, two people who can't hide their surprises. But if you hear that thunder god has moved, you can be convinced somewhere. Because you two know that Seyya lives in the Arunya family.

"So you're going to fight Saint Knight Arthur, too?

Real asking Jill with his eyes like he was ready to ask. I can feel a firm readiness from those eyes. The two have already deplored the difference in fighting power between Silforno and the But on top of that, I was even prepared to die because I was trying to deal with a magician even more superior than Silforno.

That's why the next moment, I was stunned by Zill's words.

"No, Saint Knight Arthur is on his side. The Holy Knight is supposed to return from Dacrya with Christina-Saya"

"" What!?

"Could you have come without knowing?

"Oh, oh."

"I've never heard that before."

"I was surprised when I first heard it, too. But I think I can be trusted because it's what Thunder God says."

Two people with open mouths not blocked by the shock announcement. But if Zill's words are true, one question arises.

"Then why did you come to the Dark Realm?

"With Arthur the Holy Knight, he will be safe."

"That's easy. To get to the rendezvous point."

"Meeting place?

"What?

The two unspeakable people have a bewildered look. To those two, Jill slowly opens his mouth.

"To destroy the world, to destroy this false world."

And a similar truth is told to Yours in Aquaristan from Nana, and to the faces of the Senavian School of Magic from Weiss. Together, the two groups decided to go for where he was.
