Knowledge

Now I have woken up after a long and hard sleep. So it was yesterday that I turned five years old and for this my Mother arranged a whole holiday in honor of this event. And I can say that the holiday came out in a big way, although many people just got very drunk.

But now I decided to leave it, because it's time for me to go to a meeting with my Mom. Since she personally undertook my training right in the library. Although I will give my Mother her due, she teaches no worse than my old teachers from the old world, or even better, everything is clear and understandable. The information itself is useful and helps me understand this whole world.

In all this time, I've finally learned this damn demon language!!! Although... I'm a devil, and a devil and a demon are the same thing? It's hard to answer yourself, but okay.

Also, I finally realized what kind of parents I have in terms of character and personality. Mom is strict to the rules, but kind and caring to her loved ones, although there were times when she overstepped the discipline bar, although then I myself was to blame, so deservedly so. Although I remember a couple of books about such Mothers, and I can understand all her aspirations to teach me everything. She wants me to be independent in the future and strong enough not to die.

As for his Father, it's almost the same with him as with his Mother, with the difference that he spends most of his time at his job as the Demon King and yes, my father is the DEMON KING! I myself was a little crazy then, I even thought that the fate of Meliodas played here, but this is just my fantasy.

But he himself is a workaholic in his work, but he loves his family, just like me and my mother. He's pretty smart and calculating. I even saw him looking at one nobleman with such a look that I immediately realized he was a seasoned politician. He knows how to hold masks in front of others, if he so wishes. But knowing his concern for me, I cannot hate him for the very essence of any policy or duties in the status of a King. Therefore, I am very positive towards my Father and understand all the difficulties of his burden.

Although I slightly began to suspect that it was Jin who was playing a joke on me, but then I discarded this idea, since I did not notice such character traits behind him. And in general, talking to him is like talking to a robot: he was always trying to imitate human speech, but with a certain falseness, and then he spoke without emotion at all. It's just a coincidence…

And now what I've learned about this world. Well, I'll start with the fact that the world, though fantasy, is far from as ordinary as I initially expected. Firstly, there are Angels here, which should be normal, but there is only one more kind of them, namely Fallen angels! Exactly, why is there such a thing in this world? Usually, after all, angels should stay on the side of the light and all that, in general, although it is strange, but in the history of this world it is quite normal.

But that's not all, there is also a race called "Youkai" here! And they are really the same mythical creatures from Japanese myths! What are they doing here? There were even clear descriptions of their appearance and drawings, as well as features and strength. In general, these are the very ones!

I also learned that in this world a lot is divided into races, racism is right flourishing here. The system is built so that each large and powerful race has its own Kingdom. For example, now the most dominant are: Vampires, Demons, Angels, Fallen Angels, Elves, Dark Elves, High Elves, Humans, Water People, Dwarves, Youkai, Fairies, and some more, but I've already forgotten. And this world itself is too big! The maps show that the continent on which our Kingdom is located is about the size of Europe and North America combined. There is a separate continent on which the Youkai Kingdom is located. Its size is about the size of Australia, but slightly smaller.

Many lands have not yet been explored or occupied. There is also an open sea that few people have been able to cross. Since no one has returned from any expeditions or attempts to cross, so many have buried this idea of going to distant shores. Although the world is so big that there is enough room for everyone here.

There is not only a system of Kingdoms, but also a system of countries that resembles power through a vassal. Every second person can call himself a King and build his Kingdom or Empire, but without the strong protection of existing Kingdoms, they do not live long. Either you're with them or you're against them. Everything is simple and logical. Many Kingdoms are built on capturing countries.

Our Kingdom is also built on this. And although the system is not perfect, it works and makes the life of the King of a huge Kingdom quite easy. We have four countries that are the main power in terms of: economy, war, infrastructure, entertainment, trade, research of new technologies, magical research, etc. The countries themselves are named: Northern Demon Country, Southern Demon Country, Western Demon Country, Eastern demon Country. Although not original, it is quite simple to understand where to go and who is responsible for what. And these countries have recognized my Father as their rightful King and fully obey him, although there are moments on the contrary.

And I also learned that the Kingdom of People has the most countries. Their territories are very large and as far as I have sometimes heard, underhand intrigues are almost a common thing of the day there. There are even rumors that the King has practically lost all his power over humanity, but these are just rumors that can not always be believed.

I also understood from history that there is no bad race in this world, but there are just cunning and vile personalities who create such a worldview on their race. For example, Elves are considered a peace-loving people, but even in their Kingdom there are individuals who manipulate people for personal purposes. Dark elves are often shown to be depraved and evil among the common people, but it is clear from history that this was done because of many cruel reprisals against their people. Here to put everyone under discrimination and the message: "this person is bad because she was born in an evil race." or "They are all evil, there are no good ones!". Even among demons, there are good and evil personalities whose worldview may differ in different aspects. Most of all people support racial discrimination, but that's another story.

I also found out that somewhere a couple of decades ago there was a kind of "War of the Races". It is already the fourth in history. This is a war where races are fighting for the survival and destruction of other races, then to take everything from them that they can.

This happens extremely rarely, but it's not surprising, they have a very big history! They have more history books than all the bibles put together, and this is just about the origin of the demon race! In general, the consequences were not critical for our race after that war, but immediately after it the war with humans began. As my mother used to say : they demanded the lands and people of the slaves who were captured by the demons during the war.

The war with humans has wounded our race and our population has declined. But as experts said, in 300 years our population will be restored to its former course.

My father also said that when I turn eight and I can awaken my mana, he will teach me personally: politics, the art of the sword, maybe magic, etc.

But so far, my Mother teaches me, namely: mathematics, etiquette, writing in the language of demons, the language of other races, the society of demons, etc. In general, everything you need for a future prince is provided, but I did not forget to study my system.

When the system lock that hid my racial characteristics in the status disappeared, I immediately activated the amulet in my inventory. I also hid the presence of the amulet itself from ordinary eyes with its own power. So right now I'm busy [5/6]. Abilities are hidden now: Dark Matter, Hellfire. He also hid the ability to evaluate [ur1] and the word "Supreme" in the status — "Supreme Demon", so now the word [race — demon] is shining there, and the amulet itself.

The amulet is very useful, probably the one who sent it knew that I would turn out to be such a miracle demon for ordinary demons of this world. I don't want to stand out too much right now, because I know that even if my father is the Demon King, he can't reach out and control everything everywhere to control everyone. So I'll just try to limit myself to the usual genius for everyone.

I asked Niva if she could remove the mana lock? She replied that she could, but at first it would hurt, because mana would flow sharply through the body and even more difficult to control mana. So I decided to hide my mana level as well, but that's just to be safe. Now all the slots in my amulet are occupied [6/6].

And when I turned four, I tried to use the "Gate to Purgatory" spell, and almost died!!! It turns out you need a lot of mana for this! And at that time I had [3300/3300] mana reserves.

Although as I later found out for the demons of this world, the standard mana set for an ordinary demon is [1000/1000]. As Niva said, my assessment [ur1] cannot show the requirements that are needed for such a spell and also the warnings that are sometimes attached. In general, I have been pumping the assessment for the last few months and have pumped it up to level 4.

And as a result of my actions, I was able to learn more about this spell.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------

The "Gate to Purgatory" spell (The Seven Deadly Sins)[Ur10]

[Description: A spell that opens the gate to the Purgatory dimension, where only the demon race (the Seven Deadly Sins) can live. Ordinary people can't live there for a couple of seconds without special forms of protection. It's also a space spell. A limiter is set and the Caster can be in this dimension for a maximum of 24 hours. An hour in Purgatory, a second in the real world.]

[Requirement: 90000/90000 mana]

[Warning: Do not use if your mana does not meet the requirements, otherwise there is a high chance that you will be torn apart by space or all mana will abruptly leave your body, which will kill you due to exhaustion.]

Now I'll take a note to always be careful about things whose level is tenth. And now I have to pump mana to use the spell, otherwise I can't train in using my racial abilities without attracting extra eyes. In Purgatory, as the anime showed, time flows differently, but apparently the one who sent the spell lowered it. And then it seems like a couple of years will pass, in the ordinary world a couple of hours will pass, this was confirmed by the Ban after being there for a couple of years and becoming bearded.

I also trained a little, well, there: push-ups, squats, running, pull-ups, but then I realized that I had to raise the bar. Otherwise, demons are 5 times stronger than humans, and my training was of human standards. In general, I gradually raised the characteristics.

And I, as usual, did my workout, although I had to run in the room, and it's very hard. And it's not safe to run around the palace on the street, as my parents later told me. Now I'm going a little tired and sleepy right to the library, to my Mother's lessons. When I arrived, I immediately sat down at the main table and waited for my mother. She is sometimes late, because she also has responsibilities as the head of the house of Hiroko.

Here's what, by the way, I learned about this house, it has a long history and good magicians. As the book shows, their kind is especially distinguished by a magical reserve, and they rarely have warriors or knights.

Although my Mom uses mana to strengthen and strengthen the body, and she also uses all sorts of combinations in magic so as to keep up with strong warriors and knights. She used it in the war to fight a knight who was stronger than her in many ways, but she was able to stand up. In magic, she is more average. As it turned out, she has poor control in the use of remote spells. And she's good at body spells.

While I was thinking, I heard the door to the library open. I look there and see a tired Mother, but with a beautiful gait. It looks like I'm not the only one who didn't sleep properly until dawn. When she came to the shelves of books, she took a couple and put them on my table.

— Today we will repeat penmanship in the language of demons, then in the language of humans and vampires. Then... let's repeat the etiquette. And then you can go for a walk. Wah * Yawn* — The Mother explained, trying to hide her drowsiness behind a smile, since she was also tired and did not get enough sleep after the holiday, well, it's hard to blame her, he didn't get enough sleep either.

Our training lasted about an hour and a half, during which I rose quite well in penmanship in the language of humans and vampires. But here I decided to ask my Mother one question that interests me.

— Mom, can I ask you a question? I asked the almost sleepy Mom, also raised my voice slightly to wake her up.

— Ah! What?! — The Mother answered with a cry and almost jumping up.

— Oh, I'm sorry, son, did you say something? Mom asked, already calmed down, smiling at me.

— I wanted to ask, do I really need to become a Demon King? As my father's practice has shown me, this is a very dreary job. I asked my Mother, because somehow there is a lot of future work for me alone.

— Well, the work is really dreary, but if you definitely don't want to, you can not do this work. You can put ministers loyal to you and they can do everything for you. Your father doesn't have anyone to whom he could entrust this job, and even if he does, they probably don't have enough qualifications for this. Moreover, he is the only one on whom our race rests. Previously, the "Demon Lord" stood above the Demon King. But it was already in the golden days when there were a lot of demons and we had a huge Empire all over the continent, well, you can find out more in the history textbook. — The Mother answered sadly, probably it really was a great age, since it was golden.

Although there are many other ores and metals, which, as the textbook "Ore and Metals" showed, are much more valuable, but gold has been made the main currency, so now some centuries are called that way.

— So there are still advantages to being a Demon King? I asked my Mother uncertainly.

— Everything has pros and cons, but the main thing is to be strong. Most people want power for the sake of their ambitions, we are no exception. Without ambition, the world would not move forward, so there are advantages even here. Well, if you want details, read the book "Hierarchical laws of demons.", everything is written in detail there. Mom replied, poking at the bookshelves. I think she's very tired, since she doesn't want to give me a whole lecture.

— I see. Thanks for explaining, Mom. — Said continuing to learn other languages.

And after a couple more hours of long training, I still left the library a little tired.

— (Yes, it's always annoying to study, and there's nothing to relieve stress with, you need to find a hobby, otherwise I can accumulate so quickly.) - Mentally began to complain about minor problems.

- (Should I become the Demon King? I started thinking about it almost from the day I found out. Here the demons are very reasonable and adequate, some. Although they are dangerous during battles, but this is not surprising, everyone is like that. Also, my only goal now is to gain strength and live freely in order to get happiness and be surrounded by loved ones. Now we need to get at least to the power level of the ordinary Higher Demons of the nobles, and then the Elite demon of the nobleman. Although it is better to go straight to the level of an Archdemon or a Demon King, but then fate will come.) — Mentally I began to think about my course of action.
