“Teacher? T-Teacher, are you saying that was you?” Lucion was taken aback.

[That’s right. It could only be me. Do you remember when that guy possessed Hotram? He looked at me and said, ‘You are the only one who recognized me.’]

“Ah, that’s right. It was you. The only one who recognized me. Now that I see your face, I finally remember.”

How could he ever forget those words?

“Yes, I remember. That means you had already encountered each other before.”

[Exactly. That also means I realized the world was repeating. I had met that guy before.]

Russell’s words, implying that he had faced Veronia, weren’t surprising. If he hadn’t known the world was repeating, he would have had no reason to cross paths with Veronia in the first place.

“Now, are you talking about the price?” Lucion asked, voicing a long-held curiosity.

No matter how much of a genius Russell was as a warlock, regaining memories in a repeating world had to come at a cost.

[Yeah, that’s right.]

Russell smiled bitterly.

[No matter how capable I am, this isn’t something I could do alone. I definitely received help from the darkness.]

“You knew that, Russell.”

On the day Lucion first walked the pilgrimage, the darkness had already known that he had lost his memory. He should have realized it back then when the darkness had mentioned it.

He didn’t know exactly when the darkness had regained its memories. But somehow, it had found a way to recall them and had continued to help him.

[So, what do you think the price was?]

“You’re saying that the darkness… sacrificed itself?”

[Yes. The price was the darkness itself. Without that level of sacrifice, it wouldn’t have been possible.]

“I may not remember, but we knew you were precious to us before we knew you were the vessel.”

‘What? Is that true? Was I really precious to the darkness? Or is it just because I am a vessel?’

Lucion’s eyes widened.

[And I must have made some sort of deal. Otherwise, there’s no way I could have regained my memories. That’s why it had to be me.]

Russell pointed to himself.

“Teacher, was I truly someone precious to the darkness?”

A deep regret surfaced in Lucion’s twisted expression.

[From what I remember, yes. Before the repetitions, you were close with the darkness. At that time, I didn’t know you were a vessel either.]

At Russell’s answer, Lucion immediately turned to where the darkness was hiding.

“I’m sorry for doubting you.”

Lucion straightened his posture and bowed his head. He knew how deeply misunderstandings could wound, so he had to apologize.

“Ah, no, Lucion. I hate it when you’re sad. Regardless of the reason, we were the ones who tried to betray you. The fault lies with us. So don’t apologize, Lucion.”

The darkness revealed itself and shook its head.

[If you’ve been listening this whole time, then let me ask you… I was right, wasn’t I?]

Russell narrowed his eyes. He was asking if, despite Veronia rewinding the world multiple times, he—along with the darkness—had managed to regain his memories.

“Yes. It was you, Russell.”

The darkness answered without hesitation. There was no reason to avoid the question.

“Could it be… you’ve already said it? Ah. No, perhaps you still can’t remember.”

“What are you talking about?”

Lucion felt slightly frustrated as the conversation drifted into something he didn’t understand. He thought Russell would finally know the price he had paid.

“If Russell remembered, Lucion would probably be really happy.”

“I’ll be… happy?”

“Yes! You’d be thrilled! Because you like Russell!”

As the darkness laughed heartily, Russell wore a slightly exasperated expression and asked,

[More importantly, what’s happening with that guy right now?]

“He’s suffering from the wounds Lucion inflicted. The darkness hasn’t faded yet. It’s partly due to the time difference, but also because Lucion has grown stronger!”

“Then… has he figured out where we are and what we’re doing?” Lucion asked.

“No. We’re blocking him. We’re cutting off information and sending him misleading messages. Because Lucion has become stronger, we can at least do this much.”

The darkness smiled brightly.

“Ah… I hope the day comes soon when we can finally say it.”

“I really want to call that name.”

“Guys, this isn’t the time for this. Lucion needs to sleep now. If he doesn’t, he might collapse.”

“Oh, right! Shh.”

“Shh!”

The darkness exchanged glances among itself and quietly disappeared.

[Did you hear that? Even I can’t believe it. But it really was me.]

Piecing together all the information he had gathered, and now with the darkness confirming it, Russell felt a strange sense of pride.

“Indeed… it was you, Teacher,” Lucion replied, his voice slightly choked with emotion.

[What’s with the sudden sentimentality?]

Russell couldn’t help but ask. It didn’t seem to follow naturally from their previous conversation.

“Teacher, you gave me some power.”

[Whatever power it was, did you really think I’d leave you defenseless?]

“But one of the prices was a curse. The curse is engraved all over your body.”

[I suspected it wouldn’t be smooth sailing, but I didn’t think it would be to this extent.]

Russell stroked his chin.

A tragic genius like himself had used black magic, and part of the price had been a curse.

[If the curse is visible on my body, then… it must be quite significant.]

Russell spoke as if it were someone else’s problem, and Lucion added one more thing.

“You were alive.”

[…!]

Russell was startled. A moment later, he pressed his lips together tightly.

“I don’t know what happened in the meantime. But, Teacher, you were alive.”

Why would Lucion bring this up?

Why?

For what reason was he asking how he had died?

[There’s no point in digging any further. This is where it ends, Lucion.]

Even though Russell knew the truth, he couldn’t tell him. He had to stop here. False hope would only lead to greater despair.

“…”

[You should get some sleep. You have to leave for Cronia tomorrow, don’t you?]

“Yes, I do.”

Lucion held back his words. A vague thought lingered in his mind, but it wasn’t the truth—not yet. Since he wasn’t certain, he tried not to dwell on it. But one fact quietly surfaced.

Absent-mindedly, he touched his ear.

There were words he had been unable to say to Tella before. He distinctly remembered wanting to speak, but the moment he tried, the words had slipped away—as if erased.

Perhaps…this was also black magic cast by Russell.

“I’ll sleep now.”

[Alright. Get some good rest.]

Suppressing the storm in his heart, Lucion closed his eyes.

* * *

“…?”

Lucion paused as he stepped into the carriage.

“S… Sister?”

—It’s Shaela!

Hume, who had just opened the carriage door, looked visibly surprised.

“Ta-da!”

Shaela grinned widely, giggling.

[Totally surprised, right? Ugh, it was so hard to keep my mouth shut.]

Despite Lucion’s glare questioning why he hadn’t said anything, Russell couldn’t stop laughing.

[I was going to tell you. Really, I was.]

Even Bethel averted her gaze, as if feeling a twinge of guilt.

“The ban on going out hasn’t been lifted yet, has it?” Lucion licked his lips as he asked.

“I’m Shaela Cronia,” she said, pointing to herself. “I finally got to use my powers again after so long.”

“His Majesty granted a special exception for Shaela and some of the mages. We need to establish at least a minimal line of defense over there first. Oh, and if you’re wondering when the restriction was lifted—it was just yesterday.”

Heint chuckled from behind.

“Why didn’t you tell me?”

“It’s more fun this way.” Heint smiled broadly, showing his teeth.

How many times had Lucion caught him off guard? He had to get back at him at least once.

“What do you mean by ‘minimal defense’?” Lucion asked.

Shaela answered with a knowing smirk.

“Do you really think Nevast and Neubra will just sit back and do nothing? If they show any signs of attacking, we need to respond immediately. That’s why the mages are leaving ahead of you.”

“Neubra and Nevast won’t stay idle either.”

“We’re stronger. So don’t worry, Lucion.”

Shaela’s eyes gleamed playfully as she flicked her fingers, sending flower petals swirling around Lucion.

—Wooaah!

Ratta’s eyes sparkled as she darted toward the fluttering petals.

“The Magic Tower wasn’t built for nothing. It’s fortunate that we now understand just how strong the Warlocks are.”

Shaela stretched out her hand, and Heint clapped against it.

Clap!

“Anyway, good to see you again, Brother Heint.”

“Don’t just say ‘good to see you’—actually look at me. It’s because Carson keeps talking behind my back that you think I’m incompetent. Look how capable I am.”

“Well, your reports are perfect. Did you know? Your reports are actually circulating outside.”

“Whoever got them hit the jackpot. Even I admit my reports are flawless.” Heint replied proudly.

“Get in, Lucion. You’ll hurt your legs standing like that.”

Shaela patted the seat beside her.

“Sister, don’t you think this escort is a bit excessive—mph!”

Smack!

A flower flew from somewhere and struck Lucion on the forehead. He could have caught it, but he chose not to.

“It’s not excessive—it’s insufficient. Don’t you think so, Brother?” Shaela asked, looking at Carson, who was approaching from behind.

“You’re right, Shaela. His Majesty should be even more considerate.”

Lucion resisted the urge to count on his fingers and ask, ‘The Imperial Knights, the Cronia Knights, Ale, the priests, the mages… Who else are they planning to add?’

He understood the need for precautions, but this was starting to feel excessive.

[Carson is right. Hunters who specialize in fighting mages should be added, too. The Empire may be strong, but the level of those targeting you has changed.]

“How about we continue this discussion inside the carriage? Our father is eagerly waiting for us.”

Carson gestured toward the carriage. He chuckled, recalling Novio’s reaction from earlier.

“Sha-Shaela is coming too? Really? No, wait. Carson, you wouldn’t joke about this with me. Oh-ho! I can’t just stand around like this—I must act quickly!”

He had never seen Novio so flustered before.

“See, Lucion? You’re really hot right now. I can see you sweating.” Shaela waved her hand, urging Lucion to come inside.

“Yes. I’m coming.”

Despite everything, Lucion smiled. He was happy to see Shaela again.

* * *

In front of the Cronia mansion, Novio anxiously paced back and forth.

Anthony, standing nearby, finally spoke, “My lord.”

“Y-Yes, Anthony?”

“Please relax. Didn’t we just confirm a moment ago that they are on their way?”

“I’m not nervous.”

“It’s written all over your face, my lord. It’s been a long time since I’ve seen you show such emotions.”

“…Ha.”

Novio sighed deeply.

“There’s nothing I can do if it’s obvious. It’s been so long since the family has gathered… My heart won’t stop racing.”

Anthony’s gaze softened.

“…She would have been happy.”

“Indeed. If Renia were here, she would have been overjoyed. All of this… is my fault for being inadequate.”

Novio’s smile faded, but his eyes remained fixed on the approaching carriage, unable to look away.

Thump. Thump.

His heart pounded—not with anxiety, but with anticipation.

As the carriage door swung open, Novio instinctively stepped forward.

At this moment, he cast aside his dignity.

No longer the head of the family, he embraced Carson, Shaela, and Lucion simply as their father.

“Welcome home…”

Feeling the warmth of his children in his arms, Novio smiled radiantly—like a child witnessing the first snowfall.

* * *

“So, for Lucion’s protection, a specialized team will be formed, consisting of the Imperial Knights, the Cronia Knights, the Ale organization, mages, priests, and hunters.”

Carson concluded his report and looked at Novio.

“Additionally, His Majesty has promised unwavering support. Further aid will also be provided to the frontier.”

“You’ve done well, Carson.”

Novio smiled in approval.

“His Majesty anticipates that, one way or another, this situation will send shockwaves through the empire. The additional support for the frontier is likely intended to absorb that impact.”

“That makes sense. No matter what, I have a strong feeling that something is bound to happen.” Shaela nodded thoughtfully.

“I agree. His Majesty can be exasperating at times, but his insight is remarkable—definitely someone worth trusting and following.”

Novio’s thoughts briefly turned to the gift Ketlan had sent. Along with it was a long letter, which he had read, but he had yet to open the package itself.

| May Cronia be filled only with a bright future, leaving behind its dark past. |

Since that day, Ketlan had never once brought up Cronia’s history—the darkness that had affected both Lucion and Renia.

It was a considerate gesture for Novio, but at the same time, an acknowledgment of the imperial family’s past failures.

And now, for Ketlan to mention the past again…

“But to think that a warlock will be stationed here. His Majesty has made a truly bold decision. What are your thoughts, Carson?”

Novio pointed to the part of Carson’s report mentioning the deployment of a warlock.

Despite the chaos warlocks had caused in Neubra, Ketlan had decided to assign one to the frontier under the Ale organization.

‘That’s an excellent decision.’

Lucion thought to himself. Plans were already in motion to rescue additional warlocks from Nevast or relocate those who came through the guidance of darkness to a newly established branch.

Having warlocks stationed across the northern, central, southern, and eastern branches would provide a reassuring strength.

His gaze shifted to Carson. This was the first time he was hearing about the warlock deployment.

‘What? I’m just now finding out about this?’

Lucion quietly gritted his teeth, recalling Heint, who would come later. First, Shaela. Now, a warlock. Both were significant matters—yet no one had informed him.

[If he says it was to surprise you, I think you’ve earned the right to speak informally for once.]

At Russell’s amused remark, Lucion nodded firmly.

‘That better not be the reason.’

He subtly glanced at Carson, waiting for his brother’s response.

As their eyes met, Lucion let out a short breath.

Carson’s expression remained unreadable.

I really hope the dialogues from the darkness are accurate since the author didn’t include any markers. Thank you for reading!
