The Drismegian from "Sahi".

''I didn't know they really existed...?''

　The one who muttered that was an elderly Granbaza-sama who was probably the most knowledgeable about the history of the Demon King's Army.

''Granbarza-sama, he knows about it!
''You should know about it too. I'd like to tell you that you should know about it, but it's understandable that you don't. His name has been erased from the official record.

　The same thing was going on on the human race side.

　A failure to honor the organization, a scandal, would be pretended that it didn't happen.
　If existence itself was a mass of scandals, the entire fact that each person was there would be erased in itself.

　There must be quite a few brave men and the Four Heavenly Kings who have been erased from the record like that.

''Even Siegfriedgel, who called himself to me, finally found out after reading the forbidden books in the Center Guild's collection.

　It's not in the official record.

　Hell is probably riddled with people who were pretended not to exist that way.
　With all the charges that Hell deserves, it makes sense.

"The Drismegian name is only recorded in the Chamber of Secrets, which only the Four Heavenly Kings are allowed to enter.
That forbidden curse is in the possession of...?

　So the name is deemed as dangerous as the forbidden curse?

　I'm not sure I've ever heard of the name Doris Megian either.

　I'm sure you'll be able to find a way to make the most out of your time in the city.
　The fact that I don't know about them is justified.

''Poor guy...''

　It was Ida-sama who muttered that.
　His voice was full of bitterness in the sound of his voice.

''Drismegian is a man who lived at the same time as me. He became the Four Heavenly Kings at the same time as me. We fought together as colleagues.

　Mr. Ida called his people 'warriors' in reference to them.
　That's what he meant........

'My name is emblazoned with all kinds of achievements, but the truth is different. "My name is emblazoned with many accomplishments, but the truth is, I did not do it alone. It was all won with Drismegian.

　The taking of Rasperda Fortress.
　The record for defeating the most brave men ever.

　Both of these are the grounds for praising the Ida of "Heaven and Earth" as the greatest of all time with their irreversible accomplishments.
　It's hard to believe that a single person could accomplish such a feat.
　Just one person.

''Are you saying that behind your success, there was a collaborator who was erased from existence?
'I don't know which one is the shade, though. Maybe the subject was that guy and I was just a collaborator.

　I say to myself, I don't know if it's true.

　But it was likely to be beyond the reach of history.
　What was thought to be the achievement of only one person was actually done by two or more.

''The Drismegian should have been the shining North Star at the pinnacle of the Demon King's Army's history. It shines immovably at the highest center. His strength is outstanding, his wisdom is brilliant, and he can see far beyond what we can't see.
It was more of a perspective.

　It was Master Granberza who added that.

'Therefore, he has come to the ultimate in flame magic, and beyond. He has discovered the finest combustor of magic flames.
It's...
The soul of a man.

　Master Granberza, another legendary level flame wizard, said.

''Magic flames, you know, usually turn magic power into fire. But the further you go in your training, the more adept you become at fire magic, the more you realize that there's something about it that's more suitable for turning magic into raging fire even more than magic. There is a source of heat that is more worthy of being turned into a raging fire than magic power.

　That is.....

The heart of man, and deep within his soul.

　The soul, which is the source of life force and passion, is the most mysterious heat.
　The power of life is not an exaggeration to be compared to a flame.

Not everyone is aware of it. "Not everyone is aware of it, and most mundane people will go their whole lives without suspecting that magical fire is made by magic.
Lady Granberza was able to recognize the extremity of it.

　Sashi was a rare hero.

'But I never got to this point in my life where I could move on.

　Master Granberza says with the enlightenment of old age.

It is too dangerous. The flames of a man's heart can turn into a prison fire that can consume everything if mishandled. Like so many people who can't control their emotions and make mistakes. It is hard to imagine the extent of the damage that can be done once the heart and soul that has been turned into flames is out of control.

　You can guess without being explained.
　Anger, hatred. We don't have to be told about such negative emotions, but our associations are linked to the flames.
　And nothing is more difficult to control than passion.

''I came to that point right after I became the Fourth Heavenly King. The anger and grief of the new brave Arantzill, who fought at the same time, due to the loss of his family. The negative rage worked on his aura to the point that it turned black. I noticed that when I saw it. I wondered if magic power could do the same thing.

　Did you have a history like that?
　It must have been before I was born, or soon after I was born, but there was just someone who was listening to such a monologue from Lady Granberza with more interest than I was.

　It was Estelica-san.

'I was definitely about to step into dangerous territory at that time. It was Dariel's help that kept me from stepping in. He made me believe that I couldn't do anything dangerous while I was in charge of you as a young man.

　Then he crumpled up his old face.

I also created the 'Anasozoic Scorching Hot Uninterrupted Flame Hell', which allows me to utilize psychological effects as a curse within a controllable range, and thanks to that special magic, I obtained the most powerful position. It's the result of a combination of friendly competition with Aranziel and a sense of responsibility as someone who raises Dariel.
"You stayed on. But someone didn't.

　That's the Doris Megian of 'Sahi'.

'He became immersed in the study of magic that converts the mind-soul into combustion power. He looked into more efficient mind-soul action and finally arrived at something beyond the mind, the theory of firepower conversion of the soul.
'It's horrible, you mean to turn people directly into fuel. No, a bomb...?

　The very realm of the forbidden.

Was Drismegian cast into hell for such forbidden research?
No, no.

　The facts that Ida told me were more intense than I could have ever imagined.

'That's why Drismegian was cast into hell. It was because he rebelled against the Demon King.
Ha!
''He challenged the Demon Lord head on, fought fiercely, lost, and was cast into hell. The soul's transformation of magical flames was just a means to oppose the Demon King. But it wasn't enough to get to the Demon King.

　The insane research that trampled on humanity was just a means to defeat the Demon King.
　Even that heinous method wasn't enough to defeat the Demon King at all.

　''What is it with these two...?

Why did Drismegian want to confront the Demon King...?
I don't know. As I said before, Drismegian is seeing things we can't see. Maybe he came to the conclusion that he couldn't follow the Demon King from a higher level of reasoning that we don't understand.

　Lady Granberza interjected abruptly.

''I'm the one who understands the Demon King the best. That's what he said.

　And.

Perhaps it's because he's a great genius who has risen to the highest and most unforgivable realm in the history of the Demon Race, that he's seen a side of the Demon King that we don't understand. Hidden in the Chamber of Secrets is a history of Drisimegian, which reads.

　Pointing at the man....
''The man closest to the Demon King.

''In the past, no one among the Demon Race has been called that, except for Drismegian. Perhaps even among the human race.''

　The look on Ida's face when she spoke of her warriors was very painful.

''I didn't understand anything about that guy. As comrades of the Four Heavenly Kings, we should have dived under the line of death together and bonded together. I couldn't understand anything about that guy.

　Although they are war buddies who lived in the same era, one rises to Valhalla as a hero and the other goes to hell as a sinner.

　They are too different from each other to end up in hell.

That's why I'm going to stop him this time. I will bring Drismegian before the Demon King and make him apologize for his past sins and ask for forgiveness.

　Was it in consideration of this personal relationship that he gave Ida-san the task of defeating Inferno?
　Did he take Ida-san's friendship and give her the task of capturing her comrade in arms?

　........no.
　Could it be a motive that he's just trying to enjoy watching the conflict because of the Demon King-sama?

''Drismegian is the head of the Inferno. With him at the center, other wraiths with a rebellious spirit against the Demon King gathered together to form the Inferno.

　Unlike the Drismegians, the motives of the other wraiths are the simple 'revenge for being sent to hell'?
　No, wait.

What do you mean by "huddled together?
'It is as the word says. The deceased who fall into hell no longer has a normal body. They become immortal bodies just as we, the apostles of Valhalla, are given the eternal, immortal 'Einherjar body', but only to perpetuate the suffering of hell. An imperfect, immortal corpse for that purpose only.

　They say that the departed are constantly being burned by prison flames and do not have a satisfactory body.
　I'm afraid.

"So they supplement each other's bodies to act as their own. Several of the walkers get together to form a body. That is the inferno.

　The Inferno was a group of walkers, led by the Drismegians.
