Level 5, the limit of the ‘phenomena’ that magic can cause and the literal ‘miracle’ that raises the possibility of converging from 0% to 100%.

Deltan absorbed the amplifying mana and reflected on what he could do with the 5th tier.

‘You can’t create something from nothing.’

That requires a completely different skill than magic.

The limits of what could be done with pure mana were clear.

It is simply rewriting facts that have already been established.

In the present case, Agnes’ death could be said to be rewriting the future.

Of course, we needed materials for that.

And Deltain happened to have the right ingredients.

It was the brace that made Agnes’ heart beat.

And the last engraving engraved in it was the material that Deltans would use.

Ugh, the magic circle lets out a cry.

A magic that restores Agnes’s heart beating just once, the moment it stops.

The Deltans were intent on modifying this magic.

There was nothing more suitable for the ‘possibility’ of reversing Agnes’ confirmed death than this.

The compass was swung.

Thousands of magic circles that formed a flat shape overlap and soon transform into a high-dimensional shape.

Beyond the three-dimensional cube and the four-dimensional supercube, into a five-dimensional unobservable figure that goes beyond the perception of Delta people.

A cohesive cube wrapped around the operating table where Agnes lay.

Through the interface, Deltan observed the unrest in the hall.

It was extremely pitiful.

That’s because the answer is obvious.

Yes, they are the ones drooling over that damn contract.

If you have a contract, you must be confident that you can stop this kind of negligence at any time.

‘But what should I do about this?’

I have no intention of following along.

Just-

Deltan snapped his fingers.

Deltan focused on decreasing lifespan.

From now on, it was important.

The exact moment the deadline was reached, the magic had to unfold.

The remaining time was approaching three hours.

‘Now is the time.’

widely! I hit the floor with a compass.

Oooh, the magic circle cried.

The entire space becomes glass.

The magic circle is compressed.

Deltan stretched out his hand.

And finally, the moment we reach the deadline.

Denied reality.

Exactly! As soon as my fingers snap, an alarm comes to mind.

Tick, the brace works again.

The entire operating room was engulfed in a storm of mana.

*

Cargo held Aria tightly in his arms.

‘What the hell is this!’

Deltan closed the curtain separating the operating table from the rest of the room.

It was obvious that what he would do would be something so monstrous that it would be difficult for him to imagine, so he tried not to pay much attention to it, but this case was different.

“Duke of Hebron!”

“Shut your mind and just do your job!”

How do you turn off your attention?

To put it bluntly, Cargo had never experienced such a breathtaking flow of mana before in his life.

This is like… .

‘… Lastori’s miracle.’

The divinity engraved on my body was giving such an answer.

“Cardinal! Keep going!”

Kaltara boom! He made a noise and blocked Cargo’s path.

I laughed like crazy and blocked the pouring mana with my body.

“As expected, the boss is different―!”

Is something like that coming out of your mouth?

Kargo thought of despair.

It was that moment.

“Cardinal.”

Gerhart said, standing next to Kaltara.

“Please follow the Duke’s orders.”

Cargo gritted his teeth.

The task entrusted to him is to bless the child.

‘This is why I didn’t want to get involved!’

Anyway, when you get involved with a Deltan, things never end easily.

Cargo wrapped it tightly.

“Lastoria!”

Golden divinity enveloped the bodies of Cargo and Arya.

Aria is sleeping peacefully despite all this chaos.

It’s so bold that you can see at a glance whose daughter it is.

The blessings of Lastoria continued to be engraved on the newborn Aria.

A faint light began to drift over Aria’s skin.

*

Level 5 magic does not end just because it is activated.

The most important thing is to use mana so that the immediately activated magic can function properly until the end.

Just as he did when he changed his body during the previous invasion of the islands, and as he did this time, the Deltans did not lose focus.

‘You have to keep manipulating it until the magic disappears.’

A miracle is something that holds in one’s hands the highest possibility among countless possibilities.

Deltan came up with the possibility of making the concept of the resurrection of ‘Agnes Levadeine’ most definitely a reality.

It was a matter of piecing together a cause and effect using the clues obtained so far.

‘Agnes Levadeine is dead.’

The future is certain, it does not hinder it.

‘But Ergoragia will live.’

An absolute proposition is overlaid on it.

Then it is complete.

Birth from death, the cause and effect of Agnes’ resurrection within that great cycle.

Only after the interface had passed did Deltan exhale.

The gaze is fixed on Agnes.

Agnes’s heart, which had stopped for a moment, begins to heave again.

The mana storm subsided.

At that moment, Deltan let out a long breath and dropped the compass on the floor.

He walked impatiently and placed his hand on Agnes’ cheek.

“Agnes.”

call her

Then the response comes back.

“Umm… .”

Eyelashes fluttering, Agnes’s eyelids slowly lift.

The revealed cherry-colored eyes have a dull glow.

I felt sleepy and dazed.

A smile appeared on Deltan’s face.

Even though it was a smile, it looked like it might burst into tears at any moment.

“… Delta people?”

“Yes, it’s me.”

“This… .”

Agnes pursed her lips and looked around in a daze.

It seemed as if he was trying to wake his dazed mind and understand the situation.

Then suddenly, as she tried to raise her upper body, Deltan caught her.

“It’s okay.”

“What about Aria?”

Is it your daughter that you are looking for as soon as you open your eyes?

It seems that maternal love definitely exists within Agnes.

Deltan was happy to explain why that was true.

“Cargo, bring it here.”

“Oh, I understand.”

Agnes’ eyes looked beyond the tent toward the direction where Cargo’s voice came from.

Cargo entered the tent.

And the moment Agnes sees Aria in his arms.

“Ah… .”

I shed tears. Agnes stretched out her hand. Cargo slowly handed Aria to Agnes. A child who had not yet opened his eyes was held in his mother’s arms.

Does Aria know that too?

“Wooow… .”

He frowns and starts whining.

“Aria.”

Agnes murmured.

“Aria. Aria.”

The gap between the eyebrows narrows. Even though a smile appears on his lips, his expression looks as if he is crying, but is still filled with joy, which gives a very strange feeling.

Deltan knew that he too had an expression similar to that one.

“Deltain.”

“Yes.”

“It’s my child.”

“Yes.”

“It’s definitely our child.”

Aria had received all the blessings and her skin was glowing slightly.

The skin, which would normally be wrinkled in a newborn, was stretched out.

He had a little hair, and his eye sockets were well-formed enough to open at any time.

After seeing the light of the world and receiving the blessings of Lastoria, the origin of magic, he completely melted into the world.

“My hair is red. Like yours.”

“The nose is also sharp. Like yours.”

“Whose lips do they resemble? Looking at how thin it is, it looks like me.”

“My lips are thin too.”

Agnes chuckled at Deltan’s words.

Her gaze never left Aria.

What was filled with eyes was love.

Seeing that scene, Deltan felt worried.

No matter how light the surgery was on her, and even though she was revived from the dead and took on the body of a complete devil, Agnes is still in a weak state. It was a mental problem rather than a physical one.

“Agnes.”

It was the moment I was trying to stop her.

“Wow… .”

Aria’s eyes opened.

Slowly, with trembling.

At that moment, Deltan and Agnes felt suffocated.

“… Look at this Deltain.”

Agnes said in a voice full of joy.

“Pink eyes. It’s the apple of my eye.”

Agnes’ thumb brushed Aria’s cheek.

“I’m sure it’s my daughter… .”

Was it something that made me cry?

Agnes pursed her lips and raised the corners of her mouth.

Deltan’s eyes were taken by that sight.

My heart is pounding like crazy.

I felt confident once again.

‘also… .’

No matter how much time passed, Deltan would not be able to let go of his love for her.

Agnes as a stranger and Agnes as a lover.

Agnes as a mother we face today.

All of those shapes felt so lovely.

We are family now.

The Deltans formed a family in the form of a father, mother, and child.

I was so overwhelmed that I wanted to enjoy this feeling endlessly, but the situation did not allow Deltan to do so.

This is because the work is not finished yet.

Even at this moment, Deltan felt even deeper anger at the hall that was beating the candle.

‘… I guess we can’t put it off.’

Deltan looked at the hound and Cargo.

All of them stood silently in full combat readiness.

“Deltain?”

Agnes, who had finally discovered them, spoke.

Deltan said.

“I have some work to do for a while.”

Agnes’ gaze finally left Aria.

Deltan looked straight into her eyes.

But I wasn’t worried.

Deltan always believed in the trust he had built by proving himself to Agnes.

And the choice was not wrong.

“How long does it take?”

“It doesn’t even take a day.”

“You need Aria, right? That’s obviously why I decided to have the baby.”

“… Yes.”

Agnes quietly hugged Aria and looked at the Deltan.

Then he smiled bitterly and said.

“Can you tell me everything when you come back?”

“I’ll tell you everything I know.”

Deltan hugged Agnes and Aria.

“And let’s go together.”

wherever.

I swallowed my words.

Agnes would have understood.

So the answer would be like this.

“… Yes.”

Deltan carefully took Aria out of Agnes’ arms.

I took a step back.

“Eryl.”

“Yes!”

Eryl, who was waiting, came out.

“Take care of Agnes. Since it’s lunch now, I’ll be back before dinner.”

“Okay!”

Eryl makes a determined face.

Deltan laughed slightly.

Before I knew it, the Deltan was between the hounds and the cargo.

“Then… .”

“Yes.”

Agnes said with a smile.

Even though he looked haggard, he showed a clear sense of trust.

“Come back.”

Deltan snapped his fingers.

It was that moment.

A black pit appeared beneath the Deltans’ feet.

A shadow hand stretched out from within and grabbed Deltan.

“Stick to me.”

The hounds and cargo were attached to the Deltans.

I have to come face to face with someone other than Agnes.

I feel pretty bad.

I was thinking.

Someone spoke through the interface.

Deltan pouted.

‘Robrace.’

It feels like I’ve been waiting desperately.

While I could clearly picture the smile on his face, Deltan and the hounds were sucked into the pit.
