Chapter 2 - Karte 1: criminal

"(Did you come here on your own)"

"No, I just woke up here. I don't know how to get back or why I'm here."

even so, I must…

Ryouta finally remembers what he lost and decides, "okay, my first order of business is to find my sister, but I don't really know where to start. Japan is a big place after all, but I won't give up, yet I'll have to put in a missing person report to the police, but her photo still isn't visible, I'm i really the only one who remembers her" (looks desperate)(shakes his head), "no losing hope, I have to get through this, it's the only way, I'll never see her if I don't try….,

???:(preparing the necessary vessel)

(preparing merger item)

(commencing extradimensional summoning)

(opening dimensional gate number 20167)

(placing MANA retaining crystal)

(pure grey energy crystal)

(compound magic circle created from merger ready)

(commencing summon)

(summoning a success)

???: sir we have a problem the vessels disappearing, count lily, please remove the merger (move closer and sees lily dead) AAAA! She's dead, what's going on.

???:it's the merger, it's reacting to the pure grey energy, it's dangerous to inhale so don't inhale Shelly you're going to end up the same way.

" Sir mark, you're alive?"

" Of course I am, not going to die that easy, back to the matter at hand, it seems like I'll have to use an island tier spell 6-b MANA drain, although it'll mean I have to expose myself to pure grey energy and then…

"This blue light, it's the same as the time my sister disappeared. What's happening to my body, I'm feeling light-headed I'm losing consciousness" (faints).

"I see the summon he's coming from the portal he's materializing and the vessel's being restored, it's happening the summon worked for the first time ever since that fluke 7 years ago, it never worked until now. It seems the summon has high resistance to pure grey energy, he's going to be an extraordinary specimen".

"Sir mark it's disappearing, but the merger and the crystals are gone too, this is bad he will be dangerous.

" No it can't be he's not coming to this side it's a loss for us, but I think we've made a lot of progress to analyze the data before it's too late, I won't let this go to waste ".

"Sir , the magus script is destroyed. The overload of gray energy must have affected it, all the data can't be retrieved. I'm sorry"

"no, no no, no, no it cannot be it's over we came this far too, the loss is too great. We might not even be able to start over (laughs) but I won't give up ill try a million times over I'll do it one day, a proper summon just like seven years ago I'll do it I swear.

"Where am I, these people they are watching me, I can't hear what they're saying, but I'm so tired, maybe I'll take a nap ". (wakes up in a town).

" Where am I?, this looks like a town, but it's so old looking. Does this place really exist in the world, wait back up, I was at the house, and then I wanted to look for my sister, and then I fell asleep, and I woke up here, how what is this place?, I had better ask some questions"?

" Hey miss is this Japan "(looks confused) "what is a Japan, I've never heard of it, are you lost."

"Yes, my name is Ryouta Matoi, buy the way."

"Hmm quite the strange name are you from the human capital- ou topos".

"I have no idea where I am",

"I see, did you perhaps lose your memories?".

"Yes exactly, I lost my memories".

"Okay I'm Shiva cresto I'll explain everything I know about this world to you."

there are six kingdoms, the dragon lord's capital "Draco" their ruler is a dragonoid king named ketos Draco, he's a kind king but is a known to be a racist so he only likes his people, he has five generals namely ladon ,dracones , cetea, campe, cadmus all of which are rumored to be able to use 3rd tier magic which is mostly on a universal scale."

then the demon capital "AmonAlastair" ruled by demon lord astaroth he's a strict ruler but no one has much information on him because he tends to kill other races once they step into the demon capital, but he also has five generals, and they're famous for being cruel, their names are Aeshma, Agares, Baku, Barbatos, Sthenno each can use magic of 2-c tier post universal scale, they're stronger than the dragon lord's generals and have a dreadful personality.

We have the celestial capital "celestia" ruled by the demigod hemitheos pluton and he has 5 angels, namely Haniel, Jophiel, Camael, zadkiel and raziel , this nation is known to be the strongest and the kindest, the generals can use 2-a tier multiversal magic and have multiple resistances, its rumored king hemitheos created the world.

The spirit capital "lortho" is ruled by the spirit king pneuma ruach, much like the demon lord no-one's ever seen him, but his five generals are patienta , Caritas, bonitas, modestia & fides they are about the same as the dragon lord's in terms of strength.

The monster kingdom "Rho" ruled by the beast king "typhon Minos", he is a king who enjoys battles so he's constantly looking for war a strange man with even stranger generals, their names are echidna, gorgon, siren, Scylla, Charybdis, they are all women and his wives too, they seek bloodshed even worse than he does and that's about all I know about the monster kingdom. I don't know the magic they use, but they have abilities called QI that they use to attain extraordinary abilities and are ridiculously strong.

Then finally, the human capital" ou-topos" ruled by the great king "Vladimir Slavic", he's a kind leader as well as strong, he has 5 knights, Sir El Cid, sir Godfrey, sir Geraint, sir Gawain and sir gaheris , each use a 2-c tier universal magic and have multiple affinities, and they're really nice to the people.

"ok so there you have it, " Ryouta was confused.

"wait you said something about different tiers of magic what are those" ,Shiva said with a smug face" you never bothered to ask how I knew all this well, I'll tell you I'm an information broker so you meant to pay me for this kind of stuff but I can't ask someone with amnesia for money, so this is free, now let me explain magic comes from gray energy which is everywhere in the atmosphere, but pure gray energy used for magic resides in the brain and is toxic when released, so its in your body and depending on your affinity for magic if your grey energy level is high then you should be able to do magic, like this (makes fire) and with enough training, you could manipulate your output like this see (turns the fire into a fire dragon and moves it around)"ryouta looked amazed "whoa magic is real wait I thought everything you said up until now was bullshit, I thought I was dreaming or something, until now but this is, wait no I won't get my hopes up maybe I was reading a manga before I slept and I'm still dreaming all this (touches the flames) ouch that's hot, this isn't a dream I can feel it"

"what did you think this was illusion magic? Of course, it burns, I was being nice all this time, and you took me for a fool",( gets down and pleads)" I'm sorry, please continue", "ok the tiers of magic ranges from 8-tier which is basic magic for normal people and goes higher 7 tier is intermediate magic town level 6 tier is elevation tier basically magic that can destroy islands or work in that space, 5 tier is large planetary magic that can create or destroy things on a planetary scale,4 tier is Stella magic and only chosen few could possibly attain such power it can destroy a galaxy or interfere on a galactic scale,3 tier magic it's basically something unattainable for almost all humans it's a universally potent magic that can destroy or create on a universal scale, 2 tier magic is god level magic that is only attainable by higher beings like demons or angels but no one knows how the human king and his generals attained it, it is multiversal and multidimensional it doesn't have weakness and can only be defeated by magic of a higher tier like 1tier, that's impossible to attain and usually a myth, but it is rumored two of the six rulers have such magic but it's a rumor not a fact."

Ryouta felt excited that he was gonna use magic but"wait how am i gonna go home and this world seems too overwhelming how do i get food and other necessities i'm just a 16 year old kid" shiva said with smile "i'll give you a place to stay but you'll have to work for food and logging" ,"really where" ,"well he's an old man and he's a real piece of work but he should let you stay there as long as you work for him, then once you get enough money you'll pay me for my services" " didn't you say your giving me free info"

"i did say that , then it should as a thank you gift to me for giving you a place to stay ,don't you think"

"well i'm grateful for it so yeah i'll do that" ryouta was happy he met some this nice in this unfamiliar world but then he had a thought "(wait shiva asked if i came from the human capital which means thats not where we are so then where are we)"

Ryouta wanted to ask but then shiva said with a board conniving smile "you figured it out didn't you " Ryouta was scared

" this is the land of farce a place where only the worst of the worst people in the world reside, in short this is a land of criminals and you're gonna be one of us" Ryouta was confused and short for words "you o..only wanted to use me but for what"

"what do you think ?,i want you to infiltrate the human capital and kill someone" ryouta was shocked but said with his voice shaking "w..who do y..you want dead"

(laughs) " the fucking king and his generals "

"but aren't they ridiculously strong and i can't even use magic"

"i'll teach you, i have a power that can sense one's grey energy output, right now you should be able to use 2-c tier magic" ,Ryouta was confused ,"but you said it's a god like magic that's impossible for humans to attain " shiva laughs " i know right but you can use it which means your not human or your are freak of some sort , you have a high resistance to pure grey energy ,i've been emitting it for a while but your here standing ,it must be from the time your sister got summoned you must've been exposed to it somehow ,that's how you got paralyzed for a while then you gained this much resistance " ,Ryouta was shocked " how did you know all that, and who are you really "

"what ever do you mean ?,i'm shiva cresto son of darius cresto and how do i know all this its because of i use my family's hereditary memory magic its a 4-c spell , i read your mind so i knew right from the start that you were lying and i most likely know where your sister is i'll tell you if you follow my orders" (laughs)

"so you said you were gonna teach me how to use my magic" shiva was happy with those words "indeed that's the look i love, such determination , ok i'll tell you something about my self (raises his hair) ",you see this crest Is the mark of my family and it's a symbol that we have unregistered abilities like our memory magic", Ryouta said "i'll do it but you must tell me where my sister is " shiva smiles "off course, in short what i ask of you is to become a fugitive like us".
