784-Quiet Far North Star: A Girl Reaching for the Moon






 It was........a common tragedy in the demon world. A kind of accident that had happened many times even before the order was brought to the demon world by the Phantom King.
 A high-ranking demon race, a baronial class, and six kings. When one thinks of the demon world, such powerful beings come to mind. However, although it's natural, there are also weak people who don't have the power to fight.
 Therefore, yes, it's not such an uncommon event. The commonplace, commonplace, but for the people in question, it can only be a tragedy.......the accident of a 'weak man being attacked by a demon'.
 That was the beginning of the change in the fate of a young girl 18,000 years ago.

 The girl was by no means a special being. She was born into a relatively common race in the demon world and lived an ordinary but happy life.
 She was loved by her family, blessed with friends, and lived her life without any problems. One day, however, tragedy strikes the girl.
 She goes for a walk alone in a forest near the town, but she is attacked by a monster on her way. Normally, the forest, which is not far from the town, is a place where high-ranking demons are regularly exterminated by the town's demon tribe, and there is no such thing as a dangerous monster. Even if they were there, they should only be low-grade demons that even a girl could manage to deal with.

 If I were to express it in one word, the girl was 'unlucky'. Yes, it just so happened that on that day, there was a combination of several factors that led to bad luck.
A wounded but strong demon that had been defeated in a turf war from a distant land had flowed in and was healing its wounds in that forest.
 The high-ranking demon tribe in charge of the town's security that day was not good at magic to detect a wide area just a little bit, and failed to detect the demon's magical power, which was weak.
 And the place where the demon was lurking happened to coincide with the girl's walking course.

 The multiple factors that coincidentally coincided with each other transformed into a threat to the girl's life and attacked her. The girl was unlucky, but she was not stupid.
 When she saw the monster, she recognized that she couldn't handle it on her own, so she immediately turned herself around and ran away. I had a faint hope that I could escape to the town.
 But reality is ruthless, and the girl was easily overtaken by the demons. The difference in power was obvious, and the girl could only cry and tremble in fear of the approaching death.

 Originally, the girl's life would have disappeared there.......if only one miracle hadn't happened.......
 A flower of ice bloomed at the edge of the girl's vision as she prepared to die - the Death King, Isis Remnant, appeared. It was also a coincidence that Isis had appeared on the spot.
 Her hobby: collecting memorabilia. It was only that the object of her hobby was in this forest.

 Although her appearance was a coincidence, Isis understood the situation as soon as she arrived and literally eliminated the demon that was about to attack the girl in an instant.
 And then, on the way to escape, he fell down, or maybe he fell down, and asked the girl who was injured, giving her a healing spell, ".......are you okay? And..........
 The girl's reply to that deed was.......................Screaming and running away. The moment she heard Isis' voice, the girl let out a scream that made her throat wither, turned her back to Isis and ran away.

 It was a natural consequence, and for Isis, who was clothed in the magic power of death.......it was a scene she had seen many times before now.
 That's why Isis looked sad for just a moment, but she quickly switched her thoughts to the usual and moved to look for the memento again.
 To the rescuer (Isis), it was an unremarkable 'everyday event'.
 But for the rescuer (the girl), it is an 'extraordinary incident' that may or may not happen once in a lifetime, and one that will later become a 'strong regret'.

 The girl was tormented by a fierce self-loathing in the town she escaped from.
 She had been saved, saved her life, healed her wounds...but what had she done to her benefactor? He screamed and ran away without saying a word of thanks. She wondered if such a shameless act could be forgiven....
 But no matter how much she regretted it, the fundamental fear she felt from the magic of death remained strong in the girl, and she could not think of returning to that place again.









 Several years had passed since the incident, and the girl was standing at a crossroads in her life.
 Who was the being who had saved her, and why she had run away at that time... the answers to these questions were easy to find out if she looked into it.
 Isis was a famous being in the demon world. With a little research, I learned that she is a king who wears death magic power and is an existence that can only communicate properly if she is at least as powerful as a baronet-level high-ranking demon race.

 I wanted to apologize.......for running away at that time. And I wanted to properly thank them for saving my life.
 I've thought about the method of communicating in a letter or something. But a girl who is only a mere demon, there is no carrier to deliver a letter to the Sixth King, one of the top corners of the demon world, and in her own opinion, she did not want to take such a method of escaping from the death spell of her benefactor, Isis. She wanted to properly stand in front of Isis and tell her with her own mouth.
 If that was the case, in order to achieve that, the girl had to at least reach the realm known as the Baronial Grade High Demon Race.

 However, the name of a baronet class was not a light one. Even the baronial grade, which was the lowest of the baronial grades, was only reachable by 'only a few geniuses'.
 Only a 'select few more' among those geniuses could reach the baronial grade above it, and if it was a county-level, it would be a 'monster' that would appear once every few hundred years in the vast magical world.

 Or perhaps the girl's 'limited future vision' was already on the verge of manifesting at that time. That's why I was able to understand it.
 The girl is an 'ordinary talent'. The girl is an 'ordinary talent', but she has never been given the talent to be called a genius. Therefore, even if she trained desperately as she was, she would not be able to reach the rank of a knight. That's right, 'desperate' is not enough.
 Now, two paths are prepared in front of the girl.
 The other path is ... the darkness where you can't even see one step ahead. I can't see the path ahead, and I have no choice but to groping my way through it, not knowing if the path is even there. There is no guarantee that you will be rewarded in this hell.

 For several years, I was lost. Lost for years. On top of that, the girl made a choice........to throw herself into the darkness of the unknown....
 

 And so the girl said goodbye to her family, to her friends, and to everything, and left.
 Again, the girl was an ordinary talent and not talented enough to reach the rank of a knight.......so she 'left everything else behind'.
 Even if she tried a hundred efforts, she would not be able to reach the knighthood grade.


 From that day on, the girl who would later be called the "Polaris" - the girl known as "Polaris" - began her battle.
