“I’ve only seen it a few tis in the past 2,000 years, but this demon sword belongs to Shin Reglia, right?” (Ray)
I nodded at Ray’s question.
“No doubt about it.” (Arnos)
“So this Shin Reglia founded the unification faction and is also Misa’s father?” (Sasha)
Sasha’s face had a thoughtful look on it.
“…..I was told that my father was a mazoku and a mber of the royal faction ruling sowhere in Deiruheido…..” Misa mutters almost to herself.
That’s what she’s been taught up to now.
“It’s possible you were lied to. Any mazoku from 2000 years ago couldn’t appear before when I reincarnated. It’s possible that if you’d been told I could have found out about it. If you were simply told that he was one of the demon emperors ruling from sowhere then he had an excuse not to see you.” (Arnos)
“Then this person was a close aide of Arnos-sama…..?” (Misa)
“We don’t know if its Shin yet.” (Arnos)
“But the demon sword that Misa’s father gave her was this Shin fellows sword right? Plus being the head of the unification faction would be for Misa’s sake wouldn’t it?” (Sasha)
Misa is a mixed blood. It’s natural to think that he ford the Unification faction for his daughter’s sake, even if he didn’t show up so that she could live in a slightly better society.
“The curse king had the other half.” (Misha)
“Ah…..yeah…… That would an that Shin was a subordinate of the curse king and tried to kill Misa wh—” (Sasha)
Sasha stops herself halfway through and looks apologetically at Misa.
“It’s possible it was stolen. Look, Shin can’t move from Ahartherun, right? It’s possible he’s fighting the four wicked royals and that’s what’s keeping him from moving. The curse king could have simply stolen the other half and used it this ti.” (Eleonor)
“Makes sense.” (Misha)
“It makes sense but it’s hard to believe.” (Ray)
“Fumu. I’m in agreent with Ray.” (Arnos)
“Errm, why can’t you believe it?” (Eleonor)
“2000 years ago Shin Reglia was the mazoku’s strongest swordsman. I can’t believe anyone could steal his sword from him. Especially a sword so important it could expose his daughter to danger.” (Ray)
Sasha objected to Ray’s words.
“But the four wicked royals are second only to the demon king right? Based on the current situation, they’re probably fighting together, so no matter how much of a close aide he was to Arnos, it wouldn’t be surprising if he lost at least one sword, right?” (Sasha)
“I’ve fought the four wicked royals myself. I don’t think even if the four of them joined forces they could beat Shin Reglia.” (Ray)
“Haaaa!?” Sasha lets out a surprised voice. “The four wicked royals are called that because they’re strong right? You’re saying even if they fought as one they’d lose?” (Sasha)
“Do you honestly think any of my trusted aides would be inferior to any mazoku that weren’t under my command?” (Arnos)
Sasha’s eyes opened wide and her mouth fell open in amazent.
“…..Why didn’t this person beco one of the wicked royals then?” (Sasha)
“He was always a man without ambition. He worshipped strength and dedicated his life to the sword. He and Ray will get along well.” (Arnos)
Sasha looked at Ray with an expression that says “that’s you.”
Ray just returned his refreshing smile.
“…..What does this an then….?” Misa says in an uneasy voice.
“I don’t believe Shin has any hostility towards . In the unlikely event that the sword was stolen then there’s 2 possibilities. The first one is we are dealing with an enemy stronger than any of the four wicked royals.” (Arnos)
“Gods?” (Misha)
“The fire death king has been taken over by Nousgalia. It’s no wonder the four wicked royals attacked at the sa ti if they were guided by him.” (Arnos)
It makes sense that the three subordinates of the four wicked royals went out of their way to say they slled the presence of the child of god under my command if they were fighting together.
Actually, if they hadn’t said that then there would have been no way I’d have agreed to Zeke’s battle of wits.
“What’s the other one?” (Sasha)
“Shin might not have regained his full power after reincarnating” (Arnos)
If that’s the case then it makes sense that the sword was stolen from him. The thing is, Shin’s no fool. If that was the case he’d have taken the appropriate precautions though you could argue it could have been sothing that Shin couldn’t have foreseen.
“I’ll tell you one thing though.” I address everyone in the room. “The advisor to the fire death king says that the child of god is one of my subordinates.” (Arnos)
Eleonor, Misha and Sasha all look like they have thoughts on the matter.
“The subordinate of the scarlet monunt king said that the child of god is a vessel made by the gods.” (Arnos)
Eleonor protectively holds Zeshia in her arms and because Eleonor seed troubled Zeshia started patting Eleonor on the head.
“The subordinate of the dark king said that the gods interfered with and gave birth to Misha. Also—” (Arnos)
Sasha looked uncomfortable while Misha spoke.
“……I was able to create Derugozedo with creation magic…..” (Misha)
“Demon eyes of creation. Just by looking you can create what you are thinking of. It’s easy to reproduce sothing as long as you’ve got a good image of it.” (Arnos)
Misha looks at expressionlessly but I can see that a hint of anxiety has broken through.
“Don’t worry about it. It doesn’t make you the child of god and I’ve destroyed gods before anyway. It’s hardly surprising that you who excels at creation magic can create a castle with the power of a god.” (Arnos)
Misha just blinks at a few tis.
“Also, that Deruzogedo wasn’t a very powerful god of destruction. It was an imitation god. To do it properly you have to look deep into the abyss and create its order right from the beginning.” (Arnos)
“……Why has this turned into a magic lecture…..?” (Sasha)
