SSS Ranked Reincarnation: Dark Dragon Legacy

Silva spent the night thinking about what it is that he would ask. This was a ticket that allowed him to break the Order and ask whatever he would like.

But Silva understood that whatever he asked, the system would try to give an answer that would answer him and still not answer him. He was smart enough to know that.

And so, the parliament of the minds was called into session, and in the end, they decided that the best question was not to ask what his task is, but to hit a very specific issue and not go broad.

"System, I want to ask my question now, and my question is, what is my importance to this world now."

This was a very simple and basic question, but it allowed Silva to see if he was really needed and if all his actions were important.

[Answering, your existence is needed to a very high degree. If Silva Terron is removed from this world, there will be no next generation, and the definition of peace would cease to exist.]

Silva was right, it gave a vague answer that answered and left more questions, but it at least made Silva know that he had a serious role to play.

And as a prideful dragon, that made him feel happy.

The next day, Silva and Lia left the academy to head back to their town. They would only be able to stay there for a day before they had to start coming back due to the length of the journey.

They headed early to the adventurer's guild to ask about Mike. Luckily, they found out Mike's location without issue; he had found a place to live in the city.

Silva and Lia headed there. They knocked on the door, but there was no response. It seemed he wasn't inside.

Silva decided that they would leave and head back home without him, but as they turned to leave, they saw him coming towards the house.

"If it isn't the son of the Duke," Mike said as he approached.

"Seems the news got to you as well, Mike," Silva said.

"I would have to be living under a rock not to know what happened. You are basically the talk of the town. Many people don't even know your face, yet they know all about you," Mike said.

"I didn't expect it to be that big of a deal, but that's not why we are here. Sorry to spring it up on you, but we want to take you back to Ribest to see Mum and Dad. They deserve some explanation as to what has happened," Silva said.

"That makes sense, but I would have preferred a heads-up. Either way, I'm sure you would have informed me if you could.

So, do you have a carriage ready?" Mike asked.

After waking up, the contrast that he showed from his former behavior was daylight clear. It was as though the evil spirit that had been making him act that way had left him.

"Yeah, that's not an issue, it's waiting up the street. I'll show the way," Silva said.

By the streams of a beautiful lake, a young man sat on a rock, splashing his legs through the water.

He looked like he was only twelve, his face smooth and young, with soft blue eyes.

His long blue hair covered his bare back as he sat wearing only a simple short.

The air in the surroundings was very clear, and the Mana that had soaked the entire environment was very high.

This would be paradise to any person who had Mana.

The boy sat quietly without saying anything for a while, but then a man came out of a shadow and knelt behind the boy with his face down.

He wore black tight clothes like that of an assassin, only his head was open to be seen.

"Young master, I have news for you.

Another demon lord candidate has been found as you asked us to do.

But there is an issue, this candidate is said to be very strong, and aside from that, he also stayed with the humans.

We do not know if he knows that he is a candidate yet, but Laura was able to find out with her special ability," the man spoke. MvLeMpYr-exclusive-content

"Is she the one that told you of his strength?" the boy asked without turning.

"Yes, she said she tried to pry into it, but all she got was a slight glimpse, and from that glimpse, she could tell that he was strong.

It is the first time I have seen her speak of any of the candidates she has seen like that.

It seems he is really different from the rest," he said.

"Different? That's intriguing. If this is so, then we will have to find this person and bring him here.

Remember the plan: to be the one that controls the other demon lord candidates and lead them to finally crush the humans.

We can't let one of our own live with the humans; we have to save him and raise him to be the demon lord that he ought to be.

As a disciple of one of the demon lords, I take this as my responsibility," the boy said and stood up, walking towards the man in slow steps.

"The place this boy is, where is it?" he asked.

"It is a kingdom not too far away from here. Laura said that. She didn't tell me the name, though. The young master will have to ask her that himself."

"So, it is neither the Holy Kingdom nor the Empire, just a small kingdom.

Then it should really be no issue. We should get ready to head there.

I'll have a word with Laura and ask about the details. You, on the other hand, will send the word to my elites and also to my master.

You will inform him that I will not be around for a while. I'll go to that kingdom myself and find the person who is to be one of the demon king candidates."
