Falling Mage and the Power of Divergence

Episode 286: Lucifer the Great Demon

The door was opened and Seiya saw it for the first time during the moonlight. That vision shows the four demon kings showing respect toward themselves. And the other two are solidifying when they see Seyya as she stands on the bar.

"Long time no see. Detodelion, Mikola"

Seiya greeted them as if she'd met an old friend, but naturally they can't return the greeting. Conversely, ask why Seyya is here.

"Why are you here?

"This should be the only room where the Demon King can enter."

"You guys, watch your mouth. Saiya-sama here is the next Great Demon King."

Gillanell blames Detodelion and Mikola for being disrespectful to Seyya. Two people who understand from that mouthful that the boy in front of them is really going to be the next Lucifer. But even if my body knew, my brain couldn't keep up with my understanding.

"I will ask you to explain what you mean. He's supposed to be a Leirian magician."

Mikola, who knows Seyya well, asked for an explanation. As far as he knows, Seyya is a Leirian magician, and he is one of only thirteen premier magicians in the country. I couldn't understand why such a magician was about to reign on the top of Dacrea's, too.

And Detodelion stares at Seyya with strong hateful eyes. If you try him, Seiya is Teng himself who thwarted his own plan, and it's not strange to hold a grudge.

Gilanel rises against those two and stands next to Seyya to explain. By the way, the other three were also holding back behind Seyya, and Detodelion was surprised that even Forno was there, but more concerned about Seyya than that.

"Seiya, who is here, is the son of his predecessor, the Great Demon King."

"Are you the son of the previous Great Demon King?

"Are you telling me you're Keith's son, who disappeared twenty years ago?

"Exactly"

Two people lose their words to the truth told from Gillanell's mouth. That would be half surprising and half suspicious.

"So you moderates are going to put a magician there on the Great Demon King?

"I'm not a regular magician. He is the rightful Great Demon King who inherits the blood of Lord Keith."

"How can you be so confident? Do you have proof?

"I don't even have to talk about it"

Detodelio seeking proof that Seyya is the son of the Great Demon King Keith-Lucifer, but the attitude was hilarious itself if you try to be the Gillanells moderate. Nothing but stupidity, such as asking for evidence in front of your own king. Besides, there is still so much eligibility for Seyya to be the Great Demon King.

"Seiya, who is here now, has mastered the night attributes"

"Besides, I fought and I didn't have my hands or my legs."

"That's the thing. We see Seyya as the rightful Great Demon King."

Detodelion and Mikola, who have nothing to say to the moderate attitude. That's when a woman showed up from behind the door.

"Why don't you admit it, Belzebub?"

"Oh, you're the Spirit of the Night Luna..."

"Luna!? Is that the legendary spirit that they say will make a pact with the Great Demon King?

From behind the door emerged Luna, the spirit of the night with purple hair that even seemed dark on silky fine white skin and beautiful eyes like amethysts. Luna and the knowledgeable Detodelion gave the appearance a bewildered look, and Mikola, who heard the name Luna, also looked stunned.

But Rona's appearance was effective in making them understand that Seyya was truly the one who would succeed the Great Demon King. The overwhelming aura released from Rona is just the Spirit itself. We cannot deny its existence.

"Now do you understand? Master Seiya is the true Great Demon King."

"But even if he inherits the blood of the Great Demon King, he's a Leirian magician. Besides, how can you say you're the Great Demon King when you can use light attributes?

Detodelion's question would be the best. Among them only Seyya had a strong impression of being a magician of Leiria, and there was resistance to admitting he was the Great Demon King. But the Gillanells, who know the truth of the matter, have no place to worry about it.

"Stupid word."

"What?"

"You know that, too. At the point when you can use the night attribute, Master Seiya is worthy of Lucifer the Great Demon. I don't care about anything else."

Gillanell's words seem impossible, but the presence of the night attribute in Dacrea is absolute. That's just like becoming an Episcopal goddess without question if you could use the Holy Attribute in Leiria, without question if you could use the Night Attribute in Dacrea, you're the Great Demon Lucifer.

That theory is correct, but Detodelion and Mikola can't really admit it. That's probably because they've known that power through fighting Seyya for a long time. Seyya's power is certainly a threat to them, but that's why I didn't have the impression that it was absolute.

In other words, they simply were not recognized as being that Seyya stood over them. But it is also true that the rules of Dacrya's system of demon kings allow him to take office as Great Demon King Lucifer at a time when night attributes can be used. How much they tried to deny, and it was inevitable that Seyya would take office as the Great Demon King Lucifer. Except for one way out.

The way out of this is, of course, to take Seyya's life. As Mikola forcefully took the name of Asmodeus from King of Dreams, if they take the life of Seyya, Seyya cannot be Lucifer the Great Demon. And at the same time, it is possible that Detodelion could become Lucifer the Great Demon at the time he took Saiya's life.

This situation was just as opportune for Detodelion as it was for this.

"Mikola."

"Yes."

I don't need any more words between us. Mikola knows what to do without being put into words. Seyya and Detodelion are fighting once to show each other in their hands, but Mikola hasn't shown them yet. I thought there was a gap there. The two quietly performs the smell of magic.

But naturally, they are not demon kings who do not realize the thoughts of those two. I know what the Detodelions are trying to do, but there's also no sign of trying to get their hands on it. Because there was never a victory or loss without a hand.

"Become..."

"This is..."

At the next moment, Detodelion and Mikola, who were performing a magical smell, are attacked by strange sensations. It's like all the sensations about magic are gone from your body. Of course such an experience is the first time Detodelion and Mikola have ever been born to show confusion.

And the two of them who saw about Seyya lost their words.

"What does it look like..."

Detodelion is convinced when he sees Seiya, who went from her usual blonde blue-eyed to her grey-haired red-eyed figure. Saiya is really the son of that great demon king, Keith Lucifer. Mikola, on the other hand, had never seen the real thing, but intuitively found out that the figure was that of the Great Demon King.

And knowing with the power of the Night Attribute, which can also be described as the symbol of the Great Demon King Lucifer, the two unconsciously recognize Seiya as the Great Demon King from the moment they see Seiya, who became the figure of Demon King Mode. Should I say that I admit that my own blood is the Great Demon King, as soon as there seemed to be an insurmountable wall between me and Seyya?

And once its walls are formed, at the end of the day, it is easy for Seyya's fighting spirit to swallow the two demon kings. The two kneel in a struggle as heavy as lead showered all over their bodies.

"What a power..."

"I didn't know it was this..."

The big idea of discussing Saiya amongst the two of us did not come to mind. On the contrary, even the will to try to face my teeth is turned away.

"Detodelion, Mikola. Can you help me?"

"The Great Demon King... Dear Lord... this body will obey your will..."

"I… will follow you…"

It was a word that came out of his mouth unconsciously, but also a moment when Seyya was able to follow the demon kings who were hostile with strength. Thus, on this day, Seyya, both fame and fame, became Lucifer the true Great Demon.
