As Ian was about to frown, he finally realized that he could not move.

Oh crap, this again.

If it had been a game, it would have been just an event scene.

But now that it has become reality, he could not accept it comfortably at all.

Especially after his mind had almost collapsed in an unguarded state.

How can it ignore my resistance and take over my consciousness? Is it that strong?

It was then that the darkness began to surge like waves.

Ians thoughts came to an abrupt halt.

It felt like something was watching him from beyond the darkness.

That gaze he had been sensing intermittently for some time now.

There you are.

With that in mind, Ian glared at the surging darkness.

-Come.

An echoing whisper spread.

A bizarre voice that sounded like a mix of a young girls voice and an old womans hoarse voice.

-Come to me O chosen one.

Following the whispers, Ian was saddened once again by the fact that he could not react at all.

Because he wanted to snort with derision.

The chosen one? It was such a clichd line.

-Immortality awaits you.

Moreover, immortality?

Rather than temptation, it felt more like desperate seduction.

Ian glared into the darkness with annoyance.

So where do I have to go?

Just reveal your identity, and Ill find my way to you on my own

I saidcome.

? Was that a voice just now?

Just as Ian was momentarily baffled.

The surging darkness suddenly calmed as well.

The silence was brief.

-Fate awaits you.

The whispers resumed as if nothing had happened.

You seemed flustered just now too.

Thinking to himself, Ian tried to make his voice again.

But the scenery around him scattered faster than that.

All senses faded into nothingness.

And once again, darkness.

Ian finally opened his eyes.

Sky the color of red ochre.

The illusion he had just seen naturally overlapped with it.

He had no idea what the identity of that clumsy guy was.

Because it was an event he had never experienced in the game.

He must have fulfilled some specific conditions unknown to him, or perhaps it was another fallen-exclusive event.

Anyway, the chaotic power that only the fallen could possess was proudly seated within him.

He regretted not having a quest window that would clarify everything. But this method was not uncommon in the game either.

If it was like that time, the event scene would not end after just once.

As he got closer to the place shrouded in mystery and darkness, it would start again.

The quest window would probably only appear after the identity of the guy had been fully revealed.

Then did it start just now because of that?

Ians eyebrows rose slightly.

Snowy forest. Heading north, it was a logical inference.

If he kept heading north like this, he would see the vision sent by that trite guy again.

Itd be nice if you revealed your identity next time.

Thinking to himself, Ian narrowed his eyes at the green eyes staring intently at him from across.

You didnt sleep?

I couldnt fall asleep. Luci replied flatly, then added. What was that just now?

So you felt something too, huh?

Ian blinked his eyes.

It looked like something.

I have no idea. I just got creepy vibes. It looked like something lurking around Ian, then Ian unleashed his magical power Thats just my intuition. I dont know how else to explain it. Lucis explanation sounded almost inarticulate.

She seemed unable to properly express what she had felt.

And that made it sound even more like a mages rhetoric.

She seems to have opened her eyes to somethingthough.

With that thought, Ian opened his mouth. I saw an apparition.

An apparition?

I dont know its identity, but it was probably a lingering spirit of someone from ancient times, or something like that. It called me over. Its what people commonly refer to as a whisper of darkness.

! Ive read about it in books before. They say mages leave their consciousness vulnerable, so they get exposed to the temptation of darkness and madness more frequently.

Just what kind of books have you been reading?

The ones from Uncle Vernons study. At some point he started collecting books related to magic and mysticism. Not sure if hes read them all though.

I see.

After realizing that darkness had fallen on the kingdom, Vernon had conducted his own investigation in his own way.

Seeing that he had also gathered information related to Luci, it seemed Vernon had a more meticulous personality than Ian had thought.

Well. If youre stuck between your sister whos a sacred knight and your cousin whos blessed by God, youd have no choice but to try desperately in some way.

Even Vernon himself probably didnt know his efforts would pay off like this.

Anyway, its not completely wrong. Crossing lines that shouldnt be crossed and going beyond limits to gain more power and knowledge is just how mages are.

Is it the same for you too, Sir Ian?

As much I dont want to admit it, to some extent, yes.

Ian shrugged his shoulders and added. Its just that Im not stupid enough to sell my soul to a devil or the void.

Having experienced it annoyingly often through the game, he knew well what path such people took.

Will I also face such temptation?

You will. The greater your talents, the greater the temptations youll feel.
