Prologue (Volume 7)

Prologue (Volume 7)

Arklight Empire, one of the largest nations in the world, its territory alone occupies almost half of the super continent.

Its economy is stable for a country that hardly trades with others.

Its military might can wipe out a kingdom in a single night.

But it is a nation that does not decide to attack, only to defend itself according to its constitution.

In the imperial capital there is a building called the Ministry of Magic which is shaped like a capitol, in which the court magicians work day by day to improve the lifestyle of the citizens and their weaponry.

In one of the large rooms a disaster was occurring.

"They couldn't find the problem!"

"The numbers don't lie?"

"A new phenomenon has been declared!"

This upheaval is due to the fact that strange natural phenomena known as unbalanced mana zones have been running for several weeks now.

The equivalent of natural disasters such as typhoons and floods.

It is not uncommon for this to happen, the strange thing is that it does not stop.

One of the court magicians known as the Ten Wizard Saints was watching a recording of a magic tool similar to a camera.

"W-what the hell is that..."

He was watching as a mountain in a jungle was covered in snow, in another recording he watched as a desert was turning into a forest, and in another recording he watched as a lake rose into the sky to form an egg. The fish were swimming there normally even though they were floating.

There were more such instances that the minions were showing him.

The Wizard Saint sat up.

"What does this mean?"

"Unbalanced mana zones are normal, but this is abnormal. For the past 4 months we have been receiving reports of strange occurrences happening within the country."

"Every day we receive that these strange phenomena occur... exactly what is going on in the world."

No one knew, but this had an explanation... the world, was coming to its bad end as the world tree, was not working as it should.

In another place, on the other side of the world, a tournament was taking place.

It was the typical strength tournament to test who was the strongest, the only difference was that the contestants are not normal, as they are...

"Roooooaaaaaah!"

"Shaaaaaaaaaaaa!"

High-level monsters.

A large number of monsters of different shapes, sizes, species and dangerous were making a circle.

It was like a fight club, two monsters enter and only one winner came out, the loser was devoured.

It was the law of the strongest.

The surroundings were full of trees that have never existed in botany books, plants and flowers that are beautiful from afar, but lethal if you get close.

On one of the branches of a gigantic tree was someone lying down eating a strange blue apple-like fruit that tasted like a sour banana.Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)

Its skin was dark almost bluish in color, its clothing was similar to sportswear while on its wrists and ankles was a spiked bracelet.

It had no shoes, it wore bandages so as not to dirty its feet, its hair was tied in a style similar to a pineapple because of how spiky it was, even its yellow eyes and hair were green to stand out more.

Her height was that of a young girl of 16, she watched everything happily as she ate.

"Uhyohyohyo. This year's fight festival is perfect. Without that guy here, the boys can have as much fun as they want-su."

Her voice was like that of a girl's, but her gender was not defined as such, as it was unknown.

*Chewing*

After finishing the strange apple, she went for another one, she made a move and the apple was falling several meters away from her position, but a strange thing happened and the apple ended up in her hand.

"This is life~."

"There you are, Izel."

A mysterious voice similar to a tobacco smoker called out to him from behind, turning to see him she is surprised.

"Iskandar-chan, how long has it been-su!"

With that strange catchphrase at the end of her sentence, the man who had a terrifying appearance like his face said to her.

"As usual slacking off."

"Buh~, I'm not slacking off, just enjoying my free time-su."

"Whatever. I have something to tell you."

"What is it-su?"

The monsters shouted in joy, the fight festival was a success, nothing could ruin this moment.

"The other demon king, Desmond hasn't returned."

Except that.

The recumbent by the name of Izel complained.

"What of it-su?"

"Desmond-chan is a basket case. If he ended up dead trying to cross the ocean it wouldn't be unusual. The sea kings would eat him in the attempt."

"He did. Desmond crossed the sea of marine beasts."

Izel's eyes widened like saucers.

"Are you kidding-su!"

"I don't joke, I never do, I don't know how to do it either. But it's real what I'm saying, worst of all, this is a bad omen for us."

Eli grew skeptical. He knew Razel was gaining fame, it wouldn't be uncommon for some evil woman to approach him.

"I'm sorry, but just you saying that isn't proof to believe you."

"If you don't have solid evidence then I'll ask you nicely to leave or I'll call the knights to have you thrown out."

Amy wanted to laugh when Eli threatened her, but she didn't want any trouble.

"Like I said, I've had enough of being at home. So I came to spend time with him. If you think what I'm saying is false, then let me tell you something private about him."

She reached up to Eli's ear, she blushed.

"Y-y-y-you... how come you know that about him?"

*Giggles*

"I told you, I'm his woman. We shared a bed several times so it's natural to know things that only in a bedroom would happen."

Eli looked at Amy with a face that indicated she had lost, she turned to look at the other girls.

"Err, how to put it... what she says is true. She is a lover of Razel's."

Lily covered her mouth.

"Razel-kun has secret women?"

"I don't think that's weird, what would be weird would be if that boob maniac didn't bring every big-breasted woman he could find."

"I agree."

Evelyn approved of what Celia stated.

"By the way, who is she?"

Eli asked Amy about the girl who was trying to catch a butterfly with her hands.

"She's Leila... think of her as a pet. She's kind of like a bodyguard."

"I see..."

Eli's cold expression said he didn't believe that last one, but she didn't care after a few seconds, she turned to the servant who opened the door.

"Excuse me, where's the message?"

"He just delivered this letter and left. It was addressed to you."

Taking the letter, she flipped it open. The letters were altered to be opened that way.

Seeing that it had no return address and no coat of arms, she didn't know who it was from.

But when she began to read her expression was horrified in such a way that anyone would think she had been sent a death threat.

"Is it something bad, Eli-chan?"

Lily asked. Eli answers her trembling.

"N-not exactly... but, a certain someone wants to see us."

"See us?"

"Y-Yes. You, me and Razel as soon as possible."

Eli headed into the room to talk to Razel.

Amy and Leila accompanied them, the maid didn't stop them because of what she heard.

"If it's not something bad, why are you trembling?"

"The letter came from a person I never expected to see again."

They reached the door of the room they were in a short while ago.

Eli opened it and inside she saw a scene she never thought she would ever see in her life.

A beautiful woman in her late forties, similar to her, her mother, Barbara von Rosenberg the Duchess.

She was entwining her lips with a strapping, tall boy as plain looking as his eyes and black hair.

It was her fianc, Razel Bartlet.

Their passionate kiss left the girls overwhelmed, Cordelia, was behind them because she stepped out for a moment.

When she returned, she sighed.

"I figured this would happen."

Razel and Barbara finished kissing, their gazes focused on the people watching them.

"Razel...what were you doing kissing my mother?"

Eli asked her fianc. They quickly pulled apart.

Celia and Evelyn looked confused, while Lily covered her mouth.

Eli's expression was the most frightened she was, as if she had seen something repulsive.

Her eyes darted to Barbara's hand as she spoke in a harsh tone.

"... A letter from the palace came... the first princess requests to see you as soon as possible... but there is something more important than that..."

"Mom... what's that in your hand? And why is there a plus sign on it?"

"Mom... what were you doing with Razel?"

"Eli... you see, I..."

Barbara was trembling as she didn't want to hurt her daughter.

While Razel was trembling he wondered.

(Why is she here!?)

Because he was looking at Amy without costume as Leila.

That's how it all ended in front of Razel.
