Capítulo 220: -217- I have something to say
Later, Romani mentioned that a celebration party would be held in the evening and led Rozen, Mash, and Da Vinci to someone's room.
It was Olga Marie's room.
"After the Holy Grail was retrieved, the Director came back alone and said to bring you all over when you return," Romani explained as he led everyone into Olga Marie's room.
"You've all worked hard," Olga Marie greeted them in the form of an owl perched on a crossbar.
That crossbar seems serve as her bed.
After all, an owl couldn't sleep on a regular bed; standing like this was probably how it rested. ( It's true, owls sleep upright. I just search it up..... )
"She's starting to look more like a bird..."
Rozen muttered under his breath.
In normal circumstances, Olga Marie would surely have exploded in anger, right?
But this time, Olga Marie didn't show any reaction and merely whispered, "In this way, the first of the seven Singularities has been successfully restored, and the traitor had also been successfully eliminated..."
Hearing this, the group fell into silence one by one.
Rozen could imagine how complex Olga Marie's emotions were when she said those words. Lev was someone Olga Marie once trusted the most, and now he had been eliminated. The complexity of Olga Marie's feelings was easy to comprehend.
However...
"While the first Singularity has been successfully restored, many mysteries have emerged in return," Olga Marie continued in a calm tone as if suppressing her inner emotions.
"For example, Lev Lainur Flauros ."
Indeed, it was a huge mystery.
"He introduced himself like such," Romani suddenly spoke up.
"'Seventy-Two Demon Gods—that's what Lev introduced as."
Seventy-Two Demon Gods.
For those familiar with epic tales or having played certain games, this term isn't unfamiliar.
They're also known as the Seventy-Two Demon of Solomon, the seventy-two demons documented in the grimoire "The Lesser Key of Solomon," each holding various positions—some are commanders, some dukes, some marquises, counts, and so on, efficiently managing them with well-organized roles. They can be summoned by people, granting abilities, assistance, or knowledge to the summoners.
And the reason these demons are known as the Seventy-Two Demon of Solomon lies in one person.
—Solomon.
This is the great sage and king of ancient Israel recorded in the Bible, a historical figure from 1011 to 931 BC.
He created the peak period of ancient Israel's prosperity and was the first to build a temple for the God of Israel. Besides being a king implementing fair governance, he was also known for his magical prowess.
Among his many magical feats, one is particularly famous...
"Summoning magic..."
Rozen softly spoke the familiar magic system that resonated within his soul, leaving everyone in the room in silence.
Except for Romani, who seemed to want to continue Rozen's words, spoke up.
"That's right. In legend, one of King Solomon's most famous feats was the ability to control and summon the Seventy-Two Demon Gods, acquiring vast knowledge and magical power from them, thus becoming a famous demon summoner and controller."
However...
"That's actually a bit of an incorrect statement."
Romani corrected this.
"Even before being able to summon the Seventy-Two Demon Gods, King Solomon was already an exceptionally skilled magus."
Indeed.
Long before he could summon the Seventy-Two Demon Gods, Solomon was renowned for his magic.
Legend has it that he once had a dream where he met a god.
The god gave him an oracle.
"You are qualified. Speak of your desire, and it shall be fulfilled."
This was God's approval and grant of power to Solomon.
Solomon's desire was for wisdom.
God was pleased with this wish.
For this wish was proof that the king can reach "true wisdom."
So, upon awakening, Solomon found ten rings on his hands.
These were tokens of the recognition of a wise man by God.
Afterwards, these ten rings were known as Solomon's Rings. They became the source of magic that could command angels and demons, and through this, people learned of "the king receiving God's blessing." Solomon gained the title of "Mage King" and the story spread throughout neighboring countries.
In other words, Solomon had already earned the title of "Mage King" upon receiving the ten rings granted by God. The so-called Seventy-Two Demon Gods were just one of his many feats; it's just that this particular story became extremely famous.
Rozen could also understand.
The ability to summon the Seventy-Two Demon Gods was a tremendous miracle.
The reason was simple.
"That's one of the highest-level magics capable of summoning top-tier familiars..."
Rozen sighed inwardly.
As someone who possessed knowledge of all Summoning arts throughout history, Rozen's mind held the ritual to summon the Seventy-Two Demon Gods as well.
—[ Summon Demon God ]
One of the highest-level magic spells capable of summoning top-tier familiars, one of the most advanced forms of magic. It could rival the miracles of Heroic Spirit Summoning and Divine Spirit Summoning.
For Rozen, who was still a considerable distance away from summoning top-tier familiars, this was far from being achievable.
Solomon, on the other hand, could easily accomplish this feat, truly living up to the title of "Mage King."
However, the most pressing issue was not that.
The most important question was...
"Since Professor Lev introduced himself as one of the Seventy-Two Demon Gods, does that mean the mastermind behind the incineration of humanity is likely King Solomon?" Da Vinci calmly stated, but her words filled the entire room with tension.
So, you're saying...
"King Solomon caused the incineration of humanity?" Mash unconsciously voiced what everyone had been suspecting.
To this, Olga Marie fell silent, Da Vinci fell silent, and even Romani fell silent—no one said a word.
Because...
"If the mastermind behind the incineration of humanity is indeed King Solomon, and if Lev is merely one of the demons he summoned, then it means..."
Rozen surveyed the room and spoke slowly, word by word.
"We need to deal not only with Lev but ideally calculate how to confront the remaining Seventy-Two Demon Gods and the Mage King himself."
That's what everyone instinctively thought.
Recalling the might the Demon God Piller displayed during the Singularity, the realization that there were still so many such enemies, and that they were controlled, summoned, and commanded by a Mage King, weighed heavily on everyone's hearts.
At this moment, Rozen made a decision.
"Everyone."
Rozen's words came without any forewarning.
"I have something to say."
