I nodded and sat up. I feel lighter than yesterday.

“…Vianne.”

Idris looked at me and carefully brought up his words.

“Would you like to learn magic?”

It was something I never thought he would say.

“Can you teach me?”

“If you want to.”

“But why all of a sudden?”

“If you become a mage, you can use a spell. Then you don’t have to suffer like now. It’s possible to take out the mana on your own. And as long as you’re the one who holds the mana, the mage’s threat will continue. If you can respond right away, you’ll be safer.”

“That means you want to get me out of the island as soon as possible.”

“…I didn’t mean that.”

“I know it’s not a good place to live, so you can stop talking about it, Idris.”

The two days in mage’s island were definitely rough and dangerous.  I admitted this.

Idris quickly shut his mouth.

If I become a mage and go back to the empire, I would have to hide that I am a mage for the rest of my life. Is it better than staying in mage’s island like this?

Well… living as a mage in the empire does not mean I will be executed. However, living on mage’s island was life-threatening.

It seemed like a pretty good offer.

“As you said, learning magic will benefit me a lot. I’ll learn.”

I accepted his offer.

“Who should I learn from? You? Or someone else?

“I’ll help you. Sometimes when I’m busy, Camellia or Eustave would do it.”

“Okay.”

I looked at Idris, who was still lying down. Even though he just woke up, his face doesn’t look puffy or bad. I’m jealous.

“Are you going to sleep more?”.

Idris shook his head at my question.

“You have to get up.”

Then he groaned and sat up.

“I always have a schedule in the morning. Should we learn magic every afternoon? I’ll be there as soon as I have time.”

“Great.”

“Don’t worry, I’ll have a trusted mage by your side when I’m away.”

“Then someone will teach me this morning?”

“Yes.I’ll call him in a little while.”

“Okay.”

After hearing my answer, Idris got out of bed and laid his hands on the empty wall behind Siezion’s tank.

‘What is he doing?’

Mana flowed out of his hands.

Then it shone, and the wall opened. Beyond that, there was another hidden space.

A cool breeze blew through the door.

“Vianne. You can prepare in the next room like yesterday.”

He told me before going inside.

“Okay. But, what is this room?”

“I gave you my room temporarily. This is my temporary room.”

“Is it a new room you made?”

“This is not the room I made. It’s been there for a long time. Would you like to take a look?”

 

He reached out his hand towards me.

I grabbed Idris’ hand and quickly followed him.

As I entered the room, the door was distorted and closed in a strange shape.

“Wow…  …  .”

I was purely amazed.

The room was not small. Rather, it was bigger than any room I had ever seen.

I couldn’t see the rest of the walls except for the wall closest to where I stood. So I couldn’t even know what shape this room is like.

It’s not bright, but that didn’t mean it was dark at all. The reason was simple.

As I raised my head, the very high night sky filled my eyes. Countless stars were shining..

Also, a cool wind was blowing from somewhere.

‘This is not just an imitation of the night sky, it looks like the real night sky.’

“The night is frozen here.”

Idris looked up at the sky indifferently and explained.

“Frozen night?”

I approached him and asked.

“In the era of devils and holy god, one night was taken away. The devil itself stopped the time of the night and locked it up here.”

His calm voice was drowned out by the sound of the wind.”

“…  …  The devil and the holy god.”

They also exist in my previous life.

It has been 2,000 years, right? Since the ancient time is over.

The devil and the holy god were the gods that ruled that era.

They started a war by making humans follow them to monopolize the world of my previous life.

Due to the nature of gods, who cannot directly touch the world, it merely encouraged humans as if they were playing board games.

In the world of my previous life, the war ended with a narrow victory of the holy god. So, me, the living barrier created by the holy god, and the priest, the follower of the holy god, took over the continent. They did not completely eliminate the mages, a follower of the devil..

But there was such a myth here too. There are many things that overlap with my old world. That’s the case with Siezion as well.

“It seems that the devil has won in this world.”

I recalled my memory and said.

There is a devil and a holy god too, but I have never heard of a priest since I was reincarnated here.

Then, in this world, the mages must have killed all the priests.

Nevertheless, the mages did not occupy the continent and hid on the island.… Is it a narrow victory for them too?

Then it was the exact opposite of the world in my previous life.

Interesting.

“… Is that a guess, Vianne?”

Oops. I quickly stopped thinking and looked at Idris.

It’s my mistake. I forgot a little bit. The concept of devil and holy god is unknown to the general public here.

I’ve lived in this world for more than 20 years, but I’ve certainly heard the word devil for the first time from Idris.

“What if it’s not a guess?”

I smiled softly. Idris hardened his mouth a little.

“…  …  I know it’s a guess.”

He let it slide again this time. He didn’t even try to doubt and pry into it.

Still, I should be careful not to bring up anything related to my past life in the future.

I should not say directly that his world was inside a novel in my past life. I wasn’t confident in telling him the truth.

“But, Vianne. The devil did not completely defeat the holy god.”

Idris continued on to the previous topic.

“Because the mage didn’t take over the continent. Even if there are no priests, the empire and kingdoms that followed holy god are still taking the lead. There are still many things that will threaten the mages.”

My guess was right.
