Tell me. What else do you know about the truths of this world?

　I asked.

　'Of course, the person who answers is.....

'The truth?　Is this about the Demon King's magic?

　Maynard.
　Maynard's body has already been destroyed.
　I spoke to his 'soul' that burned its life, consumed its magic power, and had its body burned by the Prism Judgment with light.

　In a short while, this soul will also be annihilated.
　Before that, I wanted to ask Maynard.

''Well perhaps you know what I know, right?''
An imperial nobleman has sealed the Demon King's magic from a thousand years ago. It was sealed by the Fosindo family. The Four Wise Men were given a piece of the Demon King's Magic. Is that what you're saying?
Yes.

　I wonder if he's already given up.
　Maynard continues smoothly.

"There are only two other things I know. The first is that we, the Four Wise Men, are nothing more than an experiment.
An experiment?
''Oh. The Empire's success in testing the magic of the Four Wise Men and their theories has given them even more power. It is dangerous to underestimate the Empire, even for you.
What is that power?
I've told you. We Four Wise Men are just an experiment. Moreover, I have been banished from the House of Fosseyndo as an Error. I don't know what's going on.

　From Maynard's words, it didn't look like he was spouting a lie.

　Still, Maynard.......Even the 《Four Great Sages》 were just the tip of the iceberg.
　However.

''It's fine. I don't care what the Empire has planned, or what they have planned, I will beat them to the punch.
Huh. I knew you'd say that.

　Maynard blows out.
　Then he sounded more serious.

'And another piece of information. There are 'lies' hidden in this world.
You're lying...?　What's that?
I don't know about that. But everyone is defending the lie. They even get rid of the people who are trying to know the lie. It is in these lies that the truth of the world is hidden...I heard the Fosind family talk about this when I was a child. We call it an 'all-fake' lie.

　Lies.....
　Indeed. All the common sense in this era is a lie.
　Especially in regards to magic.
　Inefficient chanting magic was widespread, and even body strengthening magic couldn't be used properly.

　But in this peaceful world, I thought it was because of the sealing of the 《Magic of the Demon King》, which is considered an abomination, but...?

　The "Great Lie (All Fake)" seems to be another part of it.

''And yet, you talk so much. Have you changed your mind on your deathbed?
Kukku. No way.

　Maynard laughs.
　His soul is fading away.
　It's only a matter of time before it disappears.

"I didn't do anything wrong. You've done something wrong.
What are you talking about?
''I die........With the complete annihilation of magic power, Cynthia's magic power's ability to become a Complete Product (Full Order) is lost. Cynthia will only suffer and die from the runaway of magic power for the rest of her life. You've taken away Cynthia's path to salvation, right?

　Hmm.
　Oh, I get it.

"What are you talking about?
What?

　I finally said to Maynard's fading soul, "I'll tell you what.

"Nothing is impossible for me.

　The same as in the past.

　As soon as the white light disappeared, Maynard's soul also disappeared completely.

''The rest is Cynthia, I suppose.

　Cynthia is sitting in a corner of the rooftop, shrinking in size.
　I guess she's been there the whole time watching me and Maynard fight.

'Cynthia,'

　I walk up to her and talk to her.

'Kurt. Did that boy perish?
Yeah. That's why there's no one anywhere to hurt you anymore.
Good....

　Cynthia clasps her hand tightly.

　The memory of Maynard has disappeared from Cynthia.
　Perhaps it's because she's put away in the depths to endure the painful memories of the past.

''But........that Maynard?　The child said. With Cynthia and Maynard, they'll be one complete magical force.
'That's what I mean. At birth, Cynthia and Maynard's magical powers were separated.
'Has Cynthia's magic always been missing?　Is that painful thing going to happen again?

　For a change, Cynthia gives me a worried look.
　I put a hand on her head to reassure her.

'Don't worry. Now, here's something lucky for Cynthia.
What's that?
Maynard was a force to be reckoned with.

　The color of magic power is determined by birth.
　If you really wanted to change it, the only way to do it was to reincarnate like me.

I'm sure if the magic color is different, even I would have found it difficult. If his magic power........that is to say, the missing part of Cynthia was originally a defective magic power, then the conversation would be quicker.
What is Kurt trying to say?
I will now create his magic and apply it to the missing part of Cynthia's magic.

　That's right.
　I could have destroyed Maynard in an instant.

　However, the only reason why I was acting so lamely, calling it a "sideshow" on the way was because I wanted to analyze his magic.
　As a result, I was able to completely analyze Maynard's magic power and create an imitation.

'How is that possible?　Creating a person's magic.......I've never heard of that.
I could do it.

　I kept my hand on her head.

'Cynthia. I know I've said this a million times, but can you trust me?　If Cynthia rejects me, it might not work out.
'Well it's too late now. Cynthia believes in you.

　And Cynthia bit her lip.
　Good girl.

　I focused my attention and watched Cynthia's magic.

　....Yeah. It's true that the magic power is missing.
　

　I'll make it fit there and create magic.
　It fit perfectly.

　At the same time, the two magic powers blended together and repeated minute changes in an attempt to become one.
　But still........how could the fallen magic power and the defective magic power be mixed together?
　Perhaps there might be a hint of the truth of the world.......or perhaps a hint of the Great Lie (All Fake) hidden in such a place.

It's done.

　I take my hand away from Cynthia.

'How do you feel?'
...I don't know. I feel like I'm the same as usual.
Well, maybe not yet.

　It won't be immediately obvious.

　But in his words, Cynthia's magic power has now become the Full Order.
　Furthermore, Cynthia will be strengthened and no one will be able to make fun of her.

　Then.

''Cynthia. I know this is sudden, but I have one favor to ask.

　When I began to talk like that, Cynthia looked at me curiously.

'I ... no, I want you to form a party to conquer the labyrinth with us. I'll tell Lara and Marise about it myself.''

　Cynthia's discouraging magic is skilled at finding and disarming traps in dungeons.
　In addition, Cynthia's eyes are also good at analyzing magic power, so she can also use her disobedience magic to discourage opponents.
　I really wanted to make it an asset to the party.

　It would be strange to say right after the battle was over but it wouldn't hurt to get a handle on it early before the others pulled him out.

　Cynthia looks surprised for a moment.
　But soon, she puts on a happy face.


Yeah. Cynthia, it'll be Kurt's.


　He smiled at me.
