Chapter 2: V1 / C2 – Inheriting the power of darkness

Colette is not the kind of girl who tells jokes like this…

 Then… I really went back in time!?

 I hurriedly checked the back of my right hand. There was a cursed Crest of Darkness there.

 The complex pattern signifies those who have received the dark attribute class. It's one of the emblems of darkness.

 There were several types, and this one was undoubtedly proof of a [black magician].

 "Because of this pattern, I've been ostracized by everyone no matter where I went."

 "Huh... !? Ah, is that the Crest of Darkness? Doesn't that mean you are a black magician?"

 Colette seemed to notice my Crest of Darkness and her eyes opened with surprise. She stared at my right hand intently.

 "But, isn't that strange? Aren't we meant to receive our classes at noon…?"

 "That's right."

 God will give you class at noon on the day of your 15th birthday. This was an absolute rule without any recorded exceptions.

 Therefore, during that time period, those who qualify will gather at the church and the class conferment ceremony will be held. Me, Colette, and Ares were the same age and had the same birthday.

 "It's still early in the morning, so it's strange for me to obtain the black magician class already."

 If so…

 ……No way, is this a crest inherited from the future me?

 I can only think so.

 "Status Open!"

 I decided to hurriedly check my status to confirm my suspicions.

 A status board that only I can see appeared in front of me.

 Everyone has the ability to view their status at any time, which shows personal information such as level, class, acquired magic, and skills.

 ================

 Name: Kai Austin

 Class: Black Mage

 Level: 999

 Skill: None

 Remarks: You are entering the second cycle of the world and have inherited your status.

 ==================

"What……?"

 "My status is exactly the same as before I died."

 The maximum level is 999.  It seemed that I would be able to use all the dark magic I have learned.

 In addition, text was displayed in the remarks column, which had never existed before.

 "I'm entering the second cycle of the world and have inherited my status"...?

 And again, I was surprised when I looked down at my left hand.

 …Is this the Misanga gifted by Colette?

 A misanga woven with red embroidery thread was wrapped around my left wrist.

 As if the Misanga had fulfilled its role, it split in half and fell to the floor. It is said that if you wear the Misanga until it breaks off, your wish will come true.

 This misanga must have contained Colette's wish for me to come back alive.

 I panicked and picked up the Misanga that had fallen to the floor.

 No way...

 Just before I lost consciousness, I certainly heard Colette's voice.

 Could it be that this mysterious situation happened because of Colette's misanga...?

 "Such a crazy gift was given to me."

 "Eh, a gift was given to you?"

 Colette is confused at my remark.

 I was also confused, but I understood the main idea.

 I have returned in time by a whole five years in my strongest state.

 "...hahahahaha! All right! With this power, I can change the future!"

 Overjoyed, I hugged Colette.

 "Eh!? What the...!?"

 Colette is so red that her face is on fire.

 "I will never let go of this warmth again."

 I liked Colette, but in my first cycle of life, I didn't have the courage to express my feelings clearly.

 As a member of the hero's party, I subjugated the demon king and released Colette from her mission as a saint, and then I was thinking of confessing.

 But this time, I have no intention of taking such a detour.

 "I'll change the future where Colette is imprisoned in the royal castle, and my fate of being killed! I'm not going to hold myself back for anyone anymore!"

 "Huwaaaaa! What are you saying!?"

 "Oh, no. I'm sorry about that. I just got too excited..."

 Coming to my senses, I hurriedly let go of her.

 Colette is the daughter of Marquis Warm, who has produced Saints for many generations.

 It is said that what class you will be given at the age of 15 is determined by your lineage and the way you have lived up to that point.

 Since one cannot receive the Saint class unless you have a pure heart, Colette was isolated from the evil in the world and had little immunity when it came to topics like romance.

 For instance, just a moment ago Colette's face ripened like an apple just from holding hands.

 "Well.. Well, I don't mind it. It was so sudden, I was just surprised...and if I'm given a saint's class, I'll no longer have to hold back with Kai..."

 "Colette, are you muttering something?"

 "Ah! But things might turn out wrong if Kai actually obtained a dark attribute class..."

 "What's wrong?"

 "Moooo, it's our engagement! Isn't it famous that your uncle hates the dark attribute? Some people say dark attributes cause a human to become something close to being a demon..."

 Colette frowned.

 In my previous life, Colette didn't change her attitude even when I became a black magician.

 She was the only one who held out her hand until the very end while the rest of humanity drew back their hands in revulsion and hated me.

 I can't trust anyone, including humans, but Colette is different.

 As expected, I really want to marry Colette.

 However, Colette, who is about to get the Saint class, will be forced to walk an unfortunate life because of the demon king who suddenly appeared.

 If today is really the day of the Class award ceremony, we don't have much time.

 Because the Demon King will be born today.

 “Colette, don’t be too surprised.."

 I told her my level.

 "Huh... huh? Level 999!?"

 Colette took a deep breath.

 It's pretty unbelievable. Even my father, the leader of the Holy Knights, is only level 400.

 "Let me show you the evidence. Come from the depths of Hell, Archdemon!"

 I filled my index finger with magic and drew a red magic circle in the air.

 The magic circle shined, and the space distorted until a gigantic demon with jet-black wings appeared. Its weight strained the floor, causing it to creak.

 "Hyaaaaaaaa!? Wait, A-A-A-Arc Demon!?"

 Colette crouched in fear and clung to me.

 "That's right. Slave contracts become possible at black magician level 900. This is a high-ranking Arc Demon that can be summoned from hell.

 The fact that the slave contract I made in the first cycle of the world is valid probably means that I can use all the dark magic that I have learned. This experiment erased a lot of my doubts.

 Above all, I was able to prove that the world of the first cycle was not a dream, but a reality.

 I take out Colette's misanga, which has been cut in two, and hold it tightly.

 Colette and I's wish to meet again alive has come true.

 "Master, Kai-sama, please give me an order."

 The Archdemon respectfully kneeled on one of his knees and bowed to me.

 "Hahaha... Colette, are you okay?"

 Seeing the demon bow seemed to ease Colette's guard somewhat.

 An Archdemon's fighting power is said to be comparable to 100 Holy Knights.

 "I'm sorry for scaring you, but are you convinced that I'm a level 999 black magician?"

 “Uh, yeah."

 Colette looked up at me.

 I think she's cute and endearing from the bottom of my heart.

 "I have no orders. Stand down."

 "Ha!"

 When I gave the order, the Archdemon disappeared as if it were an illusion.
