“Hello.”

“…….”

The woman I wanted to avoid the most today was waving at me.

It was Rene.

This time, she wasn’t alone. There was someone next to her.

A woman with long, flowing white hair, staring at me.

She was beautiful, but I couldn’t help but feel a sense of eeriness.

She, who would become the next Demon King, was staring at me with Rene.

\'She\'s even scarier than before.\'

Before, I only had to be careful about being from the Arsene family.

But now I knew that one of the traitors of the demon world was an ancestor of Arsene.

What if they found out that I was a descendant of the Arsene family in the midst of all this?

I would die.

I was sure of it.

So…

I had to run.

I used the stealth magic I had learned today and quickly ran away.

The ability that had allowed me to hide my presence from the instructor for a moment.

The moment I activated the stealth magic, I used Position Exchange towards the bushes.

\'Move.\'

Our positions were switched.

Only a leaf was falling in the place where I had been.

"...Did I see wrong?"

"I saw it too, so I don\'t think so."

"Hmm."

"Maybe he had something urgent to do?"

"Maybe."

Fortunately, the two of them left without looking for me.

Only then did I let out a sigh of relief and walk out of the grass.

\'Why did they come out of there?\'

Meeting people I never expected to see made me feel nervous.

Still, I should be glad that I didn’t run into them.

I hurriedly left the spot in case the two of them came back.

I arrived at the dormitory.

For some reason, I couldn’t see Samuel anywhere.

Maybe he’s practicing the stealth magic he learned today.

Thanks to that, I was able to practice magic comfortably.

‘First, let’s close the curtains.’

Ares’s bird that was watching me.

The magic I’m going to practice this time is a secret card, so I have to close the curtains even if it makes him a little suspicious.

Creak-.

After closing the curtains.

I sat down on the floor and reviewed the magic.

‘Now I think I’m getting the hang of it.’

The magic I learned today is stealth magic.

I was able to find a clue about the Chaos attribute here.

Stealth and Chaos.

The two concepts were similar.

Stealth focuses on appearing not to exist, even though you clearly do.

‘Chaos is like this.’

It doesn’t exist, but it does.

An unstable state that can exist or not exist.

I decided to apply this to Stealth.

‘Beyond hiding your presence, to existing but not existing.’

I closed my eyes and concentrated.

I circulated my mana and spread it throughout my body, just like I did in class.

An incredibly detailed use of mana.

At the same time, I used Stealth to hide my presence, following my body’s instincts.

‘I can see my body because I’m the caster.’

I looked down at my arms.

I could see that they were still there, albeit faintly.

I can’t stop here.

The concept of Stealth.

I twisted that proposition.

I forced it upon the world.

That from the very beginning, the existence called ‘me’ didn’t exist…

And then.

“……!”

I became complete nothingness.

Even I couldn’t see myself.

In the dormitory room-.

No, in the world, my existence as ‘me’ was not observed.

That’s because an indescribable haziness enveloped all my senses.

Even the concept of time disappeared.

Was it a brief moment that passed, or several minutes?

Perhaps several years had passed.

Was it because my existence had disappeared?

I was not bound by the laws of the world.

This magic literally contained chaos.

“……!”

At one moment.

As my Stealth was released, I was spat back out into the world.

I gasped for breath and hurriedly felt my whole body.

Only after confirming that all my limbs were intact could I feel relieved.

‘That was a terrible feeling.’

A sensation I never wanted to experience again.

It reminded me of the warning Orgon\'s ancestor had left in Ashen.

Now I understood why he had told me not to be consumed by the power of chaos.

Because I had felt omnipotence for a moment.

‘It’s an ability that’s even difficult to control.’

I couldn\'t deactivate the Stealth.

Mana exhaustion.

It was simply that all my mana had been used up, and the magic had been released.

If I hadn’t fallen into a state of mana exhaustion, I might have lost myself.

‘Still, if it’s just once, I can use it as a trump card.’

It was difficult to use repeatedly.

I could tell just by the fact that I had used up all my mana after using it only once.

It meant that the cost-effectiveness was poor.

However.

‘I won’t seal it.’

It was valuable enough to use.

Aside from its drawbacks, such as its enormous mana consumption or its dangerous ability, it had its advantages.

So when I organized the newly acquired chaos attribute Stealth, I named it ‘Absolute Stealth.’

“……!”

Something struck the back of my head hard.

My body was unable to keep its balance from the intense shock, and I fell forward.

A powerful blow that could have knocked me unconscious.

I looked back and couldn’t help but open my eyes wide.

Samuel had somehow entered the dormitory.

But.

I hadn’t heard the sound of Samuel entering the dormitory.

‘Something’s strange.’

I opened my mouth and tried to make a sound.

But no sound came out.

I looked up at Samuel with trembling pupils filled with fear.

Thump, thump-.

- Get out of my way, I\'m going to sleep.

Samuel seemed to be saying something with an angry face.

But I still couldn’t understand what Samuel was saying.

…Because I couldn’t hear any sound.
