A few years had passed since the Spirit Lillywood joined Kuromueina’s family, and just when Lillywood had become a part of the family, another new member joined the family.
However, he was unlike the other members of the family. Next to Kuromueina’s home, the whole family looked up to a huge dragon.
[How should I say this…… He’s quite spectacular, isn’t it?]
[……You picked up another awesome one, Kuromueina.]
[……He’s big…… and has awesome magic power…… Isn’t he too strong for a monster?]
“Does that mean that if monsters live for many years and grow up, they will come to possess such powerful magic power?”
Ein, Megiddo, Isis, and Lillywood looked up to see a huge dragon that must have been over 500 meters tall. Kuromueina found him when she went out and brought him back the same way she did with Isis, but it was the first time for the four of them to see a monster of this size.
Later, Colossal-type Dragons began to appear, but at this point of time, even the largest Dragons were only tens of meters at most, so a monster of this size was truly out of the standard.
[I named this child Magnawell. As you can see, he’s a special child, so I thought I’d raise him here…… Ahh, by the way, just as I was saying, this child really is just a young child.]
[Huh? No, even when it’s this size?]
[Unnn. He’s still a child that hasn’t grown to adulthood yet. Born with this overwhelming magic power and physique…… Perhaps, he was born to become the king of monsters…… In the end, that guy probably had her hand on this again……]
[……Unnn? ……That guy?]
[Ahh, no, it’s nothing.]
Megiddo is astonished that Magnawell, who has too great of a magic power and physique, is still a child. Well, their astonishment is understandable, for if it’s already over 500m in a state where it hasn’t reached its growth period yet, it would be almost silly to think how big it would be when it grew up.
It’s a very non-standard creature, but Kuromueina seemed to have some idea in mind for the reason for its existence. However, even when Isis asked about it, she just dodged the question with a smile, seemingly not willing to talk about it.
[Well, in any case, everyone gets along with him, okay? With this much magic power, it should also not feel frightened of Isis.]
[……Unnn…… Alright…… I’m in your care…… Magnawell.]
Magnawell responds to those words with a roar that shakes the earth. At present, it seemed like he was unable to speak, but Kuromueina said that he would gradually teach him, so there was a high possibility that he would eventually be able to speak.
In the decades since Magnawell became a member of Kuromueina’s family, he has grown several times in stature and has acquired not only combat skills, but also a high level of intelligence, making it possible for him to communicate with others.
Although he is the youngest in the family, he speaks in a rather old-fashioned manner, but his family members, including Kuromueina, are already very old, so they don’t mind a few thousand years of age difference.
“Isis, do you know where Megiddo could be? I thought I’d ask them to accompany me for combat training……”
[……Errr…… There’s apparently some interesting fellow in the south who are going on a rampage…… and they say they’re going to fight…… Some sort of raging tempest…… or storm…… Anyway, they’re fighting something.]
“Ahh, I do feel like catching wind of such a thing. That a troublemaker had been going around claiming to be the strongest…… One can’t really claim to be the strongest with Kuromueina around, don’t you think?”
“Among the young Demons nowadays, it seems that Kuromueina is considered an exception, someone who is in a separate category. That’s why, when they say they’re the strongest…… They’re talking about if you exclude Kuromueina.”
In response to Magnawell’s words, Lillywood, who was hanging out with Isis, responded with a wry smile. She explains that it’s already a well-known fact in the Demon Realm that Kuromueina is the strongest, making her considered more like a legend. Hearing this, Magnawell has an indescribable expression on his face.
“What is with that…… I just couldn’t comprehend how the youngsters feel.”
[……Magnawell…… I think you’re also a youngster.]
“If anything, isn’t there a high probability that Magnawell is younger than that Demon?”
“Mhmm…… Mumu…… I can’t deny such a possibility.”
Magnawell is still around 100 years old, which is quite young compared to Isis and Lillywood. Nonetheless, at such a young age, it can already be said that he already stands among the most powerful in the Demon Realm, showing his tremendous talent……
“However, Megiddo may have been being the same as usual…… but there really is no end to the conflicts in the Demon Realm.”
“One who has once gained great power tends to desire even greater heights…… Perhaps, if all the bloodthirsty High-ranking Demons were to be killed, peace might come.”
[……That would be…… very difficult…… Strong Demons really are strong…… They’d also have a lot of troops.]
Although the Demon Realm is a place of constant strife, there is a power structure to some extent, where powerful people reign at the top of the hierarchy. Isis and the others all stand at the top of the Demon Realm, but there are multiple High-ranking Demons with abilities close to them.
In the first place, their leader, Kuromueina, had no intention of interfering in the Demon Realm’s way of life, so the girls didn’t feel like doing anything about it either.
“Well, we wouldn’t if some sort of trigger occurs hereafter, so perhaps, one day, the Demon Realm will suddenly become peaceful.”
“A Demon Realm not under Kuromueina’s rule? I can’t picture how such a thing is possible.”
Yes, a peaceful Demon Realm was still a pipe dream at this point, and even Magnawell and the others couldn’t even imagine it…… That a little while later, a being that joined their family not long after this, as Magnawell jokingly talked about, had actually eradicated all the wicked Demons and brought order to the Demon Realm in less than a hundred years……
[……If you want to train…… How about I help you?]
“Indeed, that would be great. I have some magic I’d like to try out. I’m sorry, but won’t you keep me company?”
[……Unnn…… Alright.]
But at this point in time, this being has not even appeared in this world. There was still some time before the transformation that would significantly change the lives of the Demon Realm, including the lives of the family, would come.
