I quickly pushed Isaac, who was looking at me.

Gwang-!

"What is it?"

Surprised by the sudden sound, people looked around.

"Is it thunder?"

"That's ridiculous. It's not raining, what thunder..."

My family found the source of the sound, but they seemed to see nothing.

I stared at the man in the air.

'What's that weird thing?'

The man's eyebrows went up, like he understood me.

At that moment, I remembered a summoner I saw in Vallua's secret warehouse.

'Is it a devil?'

[There you are, foolish creature!]

A thunderous roar was heard.

'I knew it!'

I bit my lips tightly.

The fact that the devil is here must have meant that Vallua resummoned the devil aiming at me or my family.

My family couldn't see the devil. Even if they are aware of it, they will not be able to fight against the devil.

That means I have to protect them.

'But I can't use magic.'

It is forbidden to use magic in the imperial palace without the emperor's permission.

If that happens, I'll be in trouble.

I grab the nogak in my arms.

And I gave a very small amount of divine power.

Just then,

'What? Why isn't it responding?'

I added divine power again, but there was still no response.

'Is it not the real thing?'

But I felt the same force inside the jewel like Boone's and Pymon's.

In addition, if this is a regular jewel, there is no reason why the church would go so far to get their hands on this jewel.

There was once again a spark in the devil's hand.

Now the devil looked at my father.

"No!"

I screamed in front of my dad.

As soon as I made a barrier, something like a ball of fire flew towards us.

Gwang gwang gwang-!

My barrier and the power of the devil clashed.

"Leblaine!"

My aunt came running in surprise.

"What are you doing? Magic in the Imperial Palace is...!

"Don't come here!"

"What?"

"Stay back, please!"

It seemed that my barrier would be broken soon. It feels like my whole body is on fire.

I knew as soon as that devil's power collided with my barrier.

I can never beat that devil.

Gwang-!

"Argh!"
