Everyone gathered at Diego's scream. Diego was struggling unconscious, and Sophia held his hand tightly and wiped his forehead with a towel.
Arin couldn't do anything right now because he had the power of the demon.
"What happened to Diego? Was he practicing on his spirit command?"
At Ed's question, Thane thought for a while and opened his mouth.
"I don't know much about spirit command, but I think this might be an aftereffect of it."
"This can't be because of Juan."
In order to summon Juan back, it means that Diego had to meet at least an intermediate demon, but if he did, others would have known.
Thane looked at Diego's condition and continued.
"But his condition doesn't seem very serious. He'll be able to get up tomorrow."
"I hope so."
Ed looked back at others and said.
"I'll watch him, so you guys can go rest."
Sophia shook her head.
"No, I'll watch him."
Looking at Sophia's expression, Ed nodded and brought a chair, placed it next to the bed, and sat on it.
When others left the room, Sophia swept Diego's hair and asked carefully.
"Diego will continue to get hurt like this in the future, right?"
Ed couldn't easily answer her question. Others have Arin when they are hurt, so they can recover without difficulty, but Diego was different.
As a spirit commander, there was little risk of injury, but Ed couldn't make excuses because of this incident.
Sophia clenched Diego's hand as she tried to say something more. Sophia looked down and Diego was staring at her.
"Mom."
"Yes, Diego. How are you feeling?"
"I'm okay."
Ed thought Diego matured too quickly to respond bravely to his mother's concern even though he was sweating. He's still very young.
Diego looked at Sophia and asked.
"Mom, I want to drink apple juice."
Sophia smiled at Diego's words.
"I'll bring it to you soon."
As Sophia went outside, Diego looked at the ceiling for a while and sighed for a long time before turning to Ed.
"Brother. I made a new friend while using my spirit command powers."
"A new friend?"
"Yes, he's a rat. I think I collapsed while sharing my senses with him."
Ed put his hand on Diego's shoulder.
"You don't have to be in a hurry. It's okay to take your time."
Diego laughed. He knew it after he met Pendragon. Even Ed still needed to grow. The junior who joined the team later than him is Dex, the champion of the royal road.
From the beginning, Dex had excellent skills enough to face Arin.
So he had to grow faster.
As Ed said, it was not time to relax.
"I met a woman while I was sharing my senses with the rat. I felt something familiar and strange. She could touch the rat that was under spirit command and torn him to death."
"A woman?"
"Now that I think about it, she had similar to the energy I have."
"She's dealing with spirit command?"
"No, she was using a different power."
Ed made a strong impression on the words. Another power is the power of the demon.
Does this mean that the woman was a demon?
"Do you remember where she is?"
"The gate was surrounded by a thorn tree on a shield. I found it underground in the house."
It's the house of Caren. The place where the witchcraft man was killed.
"Have you seen or heard anything else?"
Diego frowned for a moment and exclaimed.
"Oh! She said that her student recently died."
Ed killed the witchcraft man and his teacher came to visit? Does the witchcraft man hold the power of the demon?
When Ed killed a strange witchcraft man, something began to come out.
Ed reached out his hand and stroked Diego's head. Thanks to his first spirit command and following the familiar power, he found a woman with the power of the demon.
This is a lot more power than Ed thought.
Under Diego's spirit command, Ed can find those who have the power of the demon. It is a force that can only be used at night.
"That's amazing. Good job."
Diego's face brightened up at Ed's words.
"Really?"
"Yes. So rest for now."
Diego smiled as if he felt like he had done something good only then. Just in time, Sophia brought in apple juice.
Ed stood up from his seat and said.
"Sophia. I'll let you take care of Diego."
"Don't worry about Diego anymore. I'll take care of him."
"He won't get hurt or anything for now."
Ed came out and went to the drawing-room. Even though he told everyone to go and rest, everyone was gathered and drank when Ed went inside the room.
Arin, Dex, and Thane.
Pendragon and Cecilia were away tonight for work.
When Ed came in, Thane asked.
"Did Diego wake up?"
"Yes. As you said, he fainted when he was summoned back into his body."
"Did he summon a new spirit?"
"That's what he said."
When Dex handed Ed a drink, Ed, who received the drink, opened his mouth.
"Diego said he was chasing a familiar energy while sharing his senses with a rat using the spirit command."
"Familiar energy?"
"He said it was the demon's energy."
Thane glinted at the words.
"He has a new sensing ability?"
"It looks like that."
Thane also pointed out what Ed thought right away. Ed continued to talk after quenching his throat.
"I saved Kyle and killed the witchcraft man."
"Yes, you told me that."
"The person Diego met today is the teacher of the witchcraft man."
Everyone's faces hardened. Arin opened her mouth with a nervous look.
"The witchcraft man had the power of the demon?"
"It looks like that."
"What are you going to do?"
Ed replied while looking at the pumpkin liquor from the glass.
"I have to catch her."
Ed thought there would be a lot of things that would come out one after another if they were related to demons.
Caren was looking at the documents handed over by Vandes. Documents with everything written about Emilia.
Caren looking at the documents, frowned when he saw the wind blowing and the documents flapping. He thought the window was clearly closed.
"Vandes. Close the window."
When he saw Vandes standing in front of him with no answer, Caren frowned and raised his head. However, Vandes stood with blank eyes, and a woman he saw for the first time stood next to him.
The woman dressed as a simple traveler was caressing Vandes' cheeks. Was he attacked?
Caren stretched his back with a slight frown. Caren's eyes turned to the woman.
"Why didn't you close the window? The night air is cold."
The woman smiled at the words and flicked her finger. Seeing the window closed silently, Caren guessed she was a magician.
A magician that Vandes could not even touch.
"Why have you come to see me?"
When the woman bounced her finger, Vandes put his knee on the floor and fell down. Sitting on Vandes' back, she sat with her legs crossed and said with her feet tilted.
"My student died."
The woman talked about the story of her student.
Caren guessed the situation.
"Isperto died in the hands of the man who attacked me."
"Did you find out who it was?"
Caren shook his head at the words.
"Not yet."
The woman got up from her seat and approached Caren. Caren tried not to make eye contact with her.
When she saw Caren avoiding her gaze, the woman touched his shoulder and said.
"Find out by tomorrow."
"Will you kill me if I can't?"
The woman bowed her head and whispered into Caren's ear.
"No. I'm not going to kill you. You'll beg me to kill you, but I won't kill you. Forever."
The woman walked through the window. Caren spoke to her as she was about to leave.
"Let Vandes go."
The woman turned around and smiled at the words.
"If you can't find out by tomorrow, you won't be able to laugh and talk."
The window opened and she disappeared, and Vandes came to his senses. He jumped up and shook his hand and looked at Caren.
Caren sighed and pointed out the window.
"Close the window."
"Okay."
Vandes tilted his head, approached the window, closed the window, and returned. He didn't remember why he was lying on the floor, and he couldn't understand why the window was open.
Caren sighed and opened his mouth.
"Have you found the attacker yet?"
"The Norman and Gilliam brothers are looking for him too, but it must not be easy."
Caren got up from his seat and put his coat on.
"Where are you going?"
"Get ready. We have to go somewhere."
Caren took the lead, and Vandes tilted his head as he suddenly wondered why Caren was rushing out while looking at the documents.
King Raiden smiled in vain.
"I can't believe it."
Pendragon asked again.
"You really didn't know?"
"I didn't know."
"If you really didn't know, there are two things. Either the Akalan group was incompetent. Or he tricked the king."
"That's very serious either way."
Raiden took a step and held the hand of Gado. Gado sat blankly even though Raiden held his hand.
"I'm sorry about what happened. I've made you this way."
Raiden slowly got up from his seat and looked at Pendragon.
"Are you going to help him?"
"There's nothing much I can do. No matter who the next throne is handed over to."
"That's true."
If Pendragon helps, it will be over simply, but only then can this person who will inherit the next throne also get out of the shadow. If possible, it is better if there is a distance between Pendragon and the royal family.
Raiden's gaze turned to the woman sitting with Cecilia in the back.
"Emilia, can you take over the throne?"
At Raiden's words, Emilia could see that this was a rare opportunity in her life.
The successors to the throne died one after another. There are still people who are in high rank above her, but no one has taken this opportunity.
This is because her mother is the younger cousin of the current king, and although she is far from the throne, she went to the Kingdom Academy and graduated there.
In contrast to the fact that other royal families were far from the hierarchy, new changes were unfolding before their eyes.
Emilia was trying to get a good government job, not just as a vain royal family. But this was opening her way to becoming a queen.
"If you leave this to me, I'll take care of everything with all my heart."
At Emilia's answer, Cecilia burst into laughter.
"Emilia, you're so stern."
Pendragon nodded and spoke as if he agreed with Raiden.
"Sister-in-law. Don't forget why this is all possible."
This accident shook the royal road, but the man who was behind this accident created an opportunity for her. If all this worked out well and Emilia became the queen, she thought it was all thanks to Ed. She appreciated everything that was happening.
The man who seems to know everything.
A rare smile was seen on Emilia's face when she recalled Ed's face for a moment.
"I won't forget."
Everyone gathered at Diego's scream. Diego was struggling unconscious, and Sophia held his hand tightly and wiped his forehead with a towel.
Arin couldn't do anything right now because he had the power of the demon.
