"Tell me. What else do you know about the truth about this world?

I asked.

Regardless, the person who answers….

"Truth? About the Magic of the Demon King?"

Maynard.

Maynard's body is already doomed.

I spoke to his' soul ', who burned his life, consumed his magic, and burned himself by Prism Judgment to judge by light.

Almost wipes out this soul, too.

I wanted to ask Maynard before that.

"... you probably know what I know too, don't you?

"An Imperial nobleman sealed the Magic of the Magic King a thousand years ago. The Fosinds are involved in the seal. Part of the Magic of the Magic King was awarded to The Four Wise Men. Is that the information?

"Yeah."

Has it given up already?

Maynard continues even.

"There are only two other pieces of information I know. One is that we, the Four Wise Men, are just experiments."

"Experimental body?

"Oh. The Empire succeeded in experimenting with the Magic of the Magic King and its theories by The Four Wise Men… and added further strength. It's dangerous for you to insult the Empire."

"What is that power?

"I told you. We, the Four Wise Men, are just experiments. Besides, I am banished from the Fosind family as a" failure (error) ". I haven't been told anything."

From Maynard's words, he didn't look like he was lying.

Still Maynard... you mean even The Four Wise Men is the tip of the iceberg?

But.

"I don't mind. Whatever the Empire is up to, whatever it's up to, it's just a slap from the front."

"Huh. I thought you'd say that."

Maynard blows out.

Then he became a more serious voice.

"And another piece of information. There are 'lies' hidden in this world"

"Lie...... you say? What's that?

"I don't know that either. But everyone is protecting that lie. It also eliminates people who are trying to find out lies. It's that lie that hides the truth about the world… I heard the Fosinds talking about it when I was little. We call it" The Great Fake. "

Shh...

Indeed. All common sense in this day and age is a lie.

Especially when it comes to magic.

Inefficient chanting magic was prevalent, and even physical enhancement magic could hardly be used.

But in this peaceful world, I thought it was because I sealed the supposedly abominable Magic of the Demon King...?

In this case, The Great Lie (All Fake) seems to be another part of it.

"Still, you talk bella bella to me. On the verge of death, have you changed your mind?

"Kukuk. No way"

Maynard's laughter.

His soul gets thinner and thinner.

It is only a matter of time before it is completely extinguished.

"I didn't do anything wrong. You're the one who did the wrong thing."

"What are you talking about?

"I die… Cynthia's magic has been lost by the total extinction of her magic. Cynthia will suffer from a magical outburst for the rest of her life, only to die. You mean you took Cynthia's way of salvation, right?

Hmm.

Oh, my God, is that so?

"What are you talking about?"

"Huh?"

Towards the soul of the disappearing Maynard, at the end of the day I said:

It's not impossible for me.

◆ ◆

As the white light extinguished, so did Maynard's soul.

"Cynthia later."

Cynthia sits in a corner of the roof with her body down.

I guess you've been watching me and Maynard fight there the whole time.

"Cynthia."

I get close to her, I talk.

"Kurt. Is that boy doomed?

"Oh. That's why there's nowhere else to hurt you."

"Good......"

Cynthia holding hands all the time.

Maynard's memory has disappeared from Cynthia.

Probably because I've fallen deeper into it to endure the hard memories of the past.

"But... that Maynard? The kid said. Cynthia and Maynard, when it comes to one complete magic."

"That's the thing. At birth, the magic of Cynthia and Maynard had been separated."

"Cynthia's magic remains lacking all the time? Is that painful thing going to happen again?

At first glance, Cynthia gives an anxious look.

I'll put my hands on my head so I can reassure her.

"Don't worry. Well, here's some luck for Cynthia."

"What's that?

"That Maynard was missing (...) fallen (...) demon (...) power (...)"

Magic colors are determined by birth.

If you really want to change, you just have to reincarnate like me.

"If the magic colors were different, it would have been difficult for me. His magic... I mean, if Cynthia's missing part was originally defective magic, it's quick to talk."

"What is Kurt trying to say?

"Create his magic now and apply it to the missing part of Cynthia's magic"

Yes, it is.

I could have destroyed Maynard in an instant.

But along the way, he was acting like a "pastime" or something, and I was licking it, except because I wanted to analyze his magic.

The result was a complete analysis of Maynard's magic powers, which made it possible to create artifacts.

"Can you do that? Creating People's Magic... I've never heard of that"

"If I were you, I could do it."

I left my hand on her head,

"Cynthia. Seems like you've said it many times, but will you trust me? If Cynthia turns me down, it might not work."

"... now more. Cynthia believes in you."

and Cynthia bit her lip.

Good boy.

I concentrate my consciousness and see Cynthia's magic.

...... yeah. Certainly lacks magic.

I was almost worried about how this part could be filled... but it was solved by analyzing Maynard's magic.

I make magic by making sure it fits in there.

It fits perfectly.

At the same time, the two magic powers mixed together, repeating minor changes in an attempt to become one.

Nevertheless... how can landmark magic and flawed magic mix together?

Maybe the truth about the world is hidden in places like this... No, there's a hint of The Great Lie (All Fake).

"Done."

I'll get my hands off Cynthia.

"How do you feel?

"... I don't know. I feel the same way."

"Well, maybe I still can't feel it."

You won't know soon enough.

But if you borrow his words, Cynthia's magic became "Finished (Full Order)."

Furthermore Cynthia will be fortified and will no longer be fooled by anyone.

Then.

"Cynthia. Suddenly, I have one favor to ask"

When I started talking like that, Cynthia looked at me strangely.

"Me... no, I want you to throw a party with us to attack the labyrinth. I'll tell Lara and Maries."

Cynthia's dismaying magic is good at finding or disarming traps in the dungeon.

Furthermore, Cynthia's eyes (Marugu) are also good at analyzing magic, so she can also screw up the opponent's nose with treacherous magic.

I wanted to make it a force for the party.

It's a weird story to say as soon as the battle is over...... it won't hurt to keep your hands on them early before the others pull you through.

Cynthia looked surprised for a moment.

But soon he looked happy,

"Yeah. Cynthia, it'll be Kurt's"

And he smiled at me.
