「Just when I was about to look for you, Tama. Were you, by chance, strolling around with Ciel-sama?」
Tama, who enjoyed Ciel’s melon sandwich as they returned to the inn, received a piercing gaze from Aria.
「Sorry, Aria. I happened to saw him walking out of the inn by himself, and we ended up strolling together.」
Ciel handed Tama over to Aria’s ch*st as she spoke.
A slight expression of regret appeared on her face as she parted with Tama.
「Nya~n」
Tama raised a cry upon arriving into Aria’s embrace as if he were saying,「I’m home!」.
Aria gently caressed Tama, who was being coy.
◆
The night passed, and the next day arrived.
「Come, my friend from the spirit world…」
After the group left the city and took a path separated from the highway, Ciel took out two more arc balls. She threw them in the open place in front of them.
Then, two five-meter-tall monsters suddenly appeared as the arc balls disappeared.
「Are they… lizards?」
Aria asked when she saw the appearance of the two monsters.
The monsters who had appeared in front of her were similar to giant, bipedal lizards clad in armor.
Hearing that question, Ciel replied, 「They belong to the 〝T―REX〟 race. Just like King, I tamed them back in the spirit world. By the way, the left one’s name is 〝Freya〟 and the right one’s called 〝Noir〟.」
Ciel approached the two monsters, Noir and Freya, while talking.
When they saw her coming toward them, the two monsters lowered their heads for her. Ciel gently brushed their heads.
【GRRRRRRRR…..LLL】
The two monsters let out deep groans as if they were enjoying that moment.
「I’m really surprised, nyan. I never expected you to have tamed another monster from the spirit world, nyan.」
「They seem to be quite powerful on top of that!」
Both Vulcan and Stella gave their impressions of the two T-REX.
「Well, these cuties mainly play supporting roles as means for transportation.」
Ciel took out another arc ball from her bosom pocket as she spoke.
She threw the arc ball like before, and this time, what appeared before them was a mechanical carriage.
As soon as that mechanical carriage appeared, the two T-REX moved to the front of the carriage.
Then, something resembling a metal sheet grew from the carriage and connected with the armor parts of the two monsters.
（I see now! Those two’s job is pulling the vehicle just like King.）
Tama realized that.
As he had expected, the vehicle was a carriage.
「Well then, to the Royal Capital.」
Ciel spoke in a loud voice when everyone was onboard the carriage. As expected, Cedric didn’t want to enter a cramped room filled with women, so he ended up sitting alone on top of the carriage’s roof.
◆
They had been traveling along the highway for a while when—
【GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!】
They heard the two T-REXs growls come from outside the carriage.
The carriage halted as soon as they heard that growl.
「It seems monsters are blocking our path.」
Ciel left the carriage as she spoke.
When she alighted, she saw that Cedric was already standing on the highway with his sword drawn. He was looking at a faraway place.
「Ah! Please wait a minute, Dear Uncle!」
「…? Is something the matter, May-chan?」
「This is a good chance for me to show my power to everyone!」
May stepped in front of everyone with her staff in hand.
（Interesting, a chance to see the power of the Archmage and the female hero’s daughter… Now, let’s see her power.）
Tama looked at May’s back with a curious look on his face.
As someone who had lived in a battlefield and was a former knight, it was only natural for him to be interested in the power of the hero’s descendant.
The monsters who had blocked their path were five orcs and two wolf-shaped monsters called big fang.
The monsters let out war cries as soon as they saw May.
In response to that, May raised her staff high in the air and muttered, 「Seven, huh… Just the right number I guess!」.
And then—
「HERE WE GO! Dark magic skill— 《Seven Star’s Dark Demon Sword》」
She said the name of her skill in a loud voice.
Thereupon, seven jet-black balls of light appeared right on top of her opponents.
Those seven jet-black light balls then transformed into seven beautiful jet-black swords.
Each sword aimed at its target and shot toward it at once with a terrifying velocity.
『BUGYAAAAAAAAAAAA!?』
『GRR…… NNNNNNN!?』
The big fangs and the orcs let out sorrowful cries as the jet-black swords pierced them.
And they died a few seconds later…
「S-《Seven Star’s Dark Demon Sword》!?」
「That’s Maiya-chan’s dark magic skill, nyan!」
Both Vulcan and Cedric let out surprised voices.
Seeing their reactions, May puffed her flat chest and proudly hummed. 「Ehem!」
Dark Magic―《Seven Star’s Dark Demon Sword》.
Just as Vulcan had said, it was a special magic spell that solely belonged to the Archmage, Maiya.
However, May used the same spell as her father.
That was the last proof the two needed to erase all doubts about May being Maiya’s daughter.
「But, of course, May’s power is a little bit different from Papa’s.」
「… Eh? What do you mean, May-chan?」
Cedric asked with a curious look on his face.
May then began her explanation.
「Papa’s skill is a pure magic spell which he fires after constructing the spell and calculating the amount of mana needed from scratch! But May’s skill isn’t like that… It’s inherited in accordance to the system of this world!」
According to her explanation, Archmage Maiya could apparently alter magic in any form he wished. He could also increase or decrease the output as he wanted.
For that reason, May, who had inherited that magic from her father, received it in the form of a skill system of this world. This made it different from the original magic spell developed by the Archmage.
「Still, dark magic is… an element that deprives the target of their life force.」
「Nyan, right! It’s really a huge boost for our combat strength!」
Both Cedric and Vulcan were visibly excited.
For Cedric, it was because May was his younger brother-in-law’s daughter, and for Vulcan, she was her sworn friend’s daughter.
It was only natural for them to be surprised on seeing Archmage Maiya’s power exhibited without any kind of catalyst.
（Archmage’s daughter, May… for her to use such powerful magic like nothing, I definitely can’t wait to see the upcoming battle!）
Tama felt excited upon seeing May’s potential.
「That’s amazing! As expected of the Archmage’s daughter!」
「Seeing such strength has made me fired up!」
「We won’t lose!」
「We absolutely won’t lo~se!」
Aria, Stella, Lily, and Faeri were pumped up upon seeing May’s power.
