There were a lot of thoughts in Silva's head at this point; this whole demon, celestial, and other stuff had really confused him. "So, do we know who the candidate is? It can't just be a random monster, it has to have something special," Silva said. "That answer is already there, Master. There can only be two options: you or Lady Elsa. But Lady Elsa has been around for over a hundred years; if she had any prospects of being a demon king, she would have been selected in the past generation and not now," Drake said. "Ah, so what about the guardians?" Silva asked. "No, the guardians have lived even longer than Lady Elsa; we watched her grow. So it can't be us as well. The whole thing started during the range of your birth, and with you carrying the legacy of the first dragon, and also being a half-dragon, it makes you the perfect candidate," Drake said. Silva was unsure how to react. He had the thought that it could have been him, but he wasn't sure that was possible. But now, Drake was pointing out some good facts. [You have unlocked one level to the task of Goddess Ophelia. You may now receive a message from her.] A notification came on, and then a hologram of Goddess Ophelia appeared massively in the middle of the room. Drake and Elsa bowed immediately when they saw the goddess. "Wait, you can see her? That shouldn't be possible," Silva said. "I allowed them to see because I believe that they have a vital role to play as well. They are also your comrades; they won't speak of what happens here, right?" Ophelia asked. "You can't be making rash decisions like that," Silva argued back. Begin to build your army, as great and as strong as possible, because things may get very dangerous from now. The other thing is that you must keep your status a secret from humans. If they ever find out, it could spell the start of a war, one that will not be easily handled. And you are far too weak now. It would be bad for a war to start. Aside from humans, you must keep that status away from beasts alike. If the current demon kings hear about you, they will get their hands on you and force you to serve under them as training. You will lose your free will and everything," Drake warned. Silva could tell from his tone that this was a serious issue. He made a mental note to listen to what Drake said. "Daddy, you have the summoner ability, right? But I noticed that you use it only partly. If you use the true power, you can build a bigger army, and even train beings that may become as strong as the guardians," Elsa said. "Hm, you just gave me an idea. If I make the guardians my summons, they will be ten times stronger," Silva said. "That won't work, because, again, you are too weak. No matter who you are, it is impossible for a normal being to tame an evolved being," Drake said. "Daddy, back to what I was saying. Let me tell you about the other side of summoning. So far, all you have been using is the taming sub-branch of summoning. There are more types, like golem summoning, spirit summoning, undead summoning, and more. If you can learn how to do that, with your mana capacity, you will be making an army in no time. You also need close confidants in the human world. The guardians can't be with you always, because even if they suppress their mana, if a powerful person sees them, they will know. So your summons can be your close confidants, moving with you and watching over you," Elsa said. "I understand, but let's take things easy for now. Even if I am a candidate, I'm only a candidate. No one knows what will happen just yet, and we still have Dark Blade to deal with," Silva said.
