Interlude

Count Blaise Lamprogue in the Capital

Sitting at a desk, Blaise Lamprogue closed the book he had been reading. He was staying at a luxury inn in the imperial capital. Unlike the cheap rooms found on the second floor of a pub, his room was quiet and clean. Yet despite that, he was having trouble focusing on his studies.

Today marked Seika’s departure for Lodonea. They had probably reached the first city along the way and were staying at an inn right about now. Was the decision he had made the right one? It was the only question occupying his mind.

◆　◆　◆

Seika wasn’t Blaise’s son. Twelve years ago, a mysterious woman in a black robe had brought the infant Seika to his manor, claiming he was the son of his younger brother Gilbert.

Even to his brother, Gilbert was a peculiar one. He was free-spirited, with no trace of nobility about him. So much so that he had said he wanted to see the world and became an adventurer after graduating from the magic academy. He was likely the only member of the Lamprogue family of magic scholars to have ever become an adventurer.

However, Gilbert was exceedingly talented. He had been at the top of his class at the magic academy and accomplished many great feats as an adventurer, quickly rising to the top ranks. Though many members of their family wouldn’t acknowledge him, Blaise was secretly proud of his younger brother.

One day, Blaise received a report that Gilbert had gone missing in demon territory. When the mysterious woman brought Seika several years later, he didn’t even consider sending the child to an orphanage. It might have all been a lie, but he felt it was fate and thus decided to raise Seika as his own.

His wife suspected Seika of being the child of a demon. Although Blaise thought the idea was ridiculous, he understood her rationale. Seika was undoubtedly a child of dubious birth. However, the woman had seemed quite desperate when she’d said Gilbert’s name. He couldn’t bring himself to abandon the child.

Not wanting others to harbor the same suspicions, he decided to tell his acquaintances that Seika was the son of a mistress. He even hid the truth from his two sons. Yet as time went on, Blaise himself began to suspect that Seika had inherited demon blood. There was more to it than just his black hair and eyes which were uncommon in the empire.

At the age of one, he had begun using magic. It was primitive magic, simply moving objects without utilizing any element, but it shouldn’t have been possible. Magic and language were intrinsically connected. That was an immutable fact, even among talented mages who had mastered incantationless casting. So an infant who had not yet learned to speak casting magic was impossible—unless it was the child of a demon who had been born with the ability to use magic.

Seika’s magic steadily grew stronger. By the age of two, he had become capable of not just moving objects, but destroying them as well.
