[Although his demeanor may appear gentle and amiable, Merlin will not let you leave peacefully. A confrontation with him is inevitable.]

[The opponent is a half-incubus, a sage, a great magus, and every title since birth echoes gloriously in Britannia.]

[He is Merlin.]

[But, so what?]

[You are... the ultimate life form.]

[Beneath this vast moonlight, it is your absolute home ground.]

[He wears human skin but is something inhuman, you possess a dragon's body yet harbor a clear human heart.]

[In this most dangerous pass.]

[Your heart, on the contrary, becomes extremely relaxed.]

[Where there is light, there is also accompanying shadow.]

[If that light represents the thriving vitality of all things, then the shadow represents 'death.']

[The shadows accompanying the night are quiet, extinguished, and murderous.]

[You, manipulating the shadows, attempt to gift the other a present named 'death,' an eternal tranquility.]

[In the ethereal thoughts, your murderous intent gradually quiets, your nature gradually converges.]

[You feel as if your body is constantly sinking, and in a trance, you seem to reach a certain extreme of dormancy.]

[If there is light, it will be swallowed by that light.]

[If there is no shadow, you yourself are the embodiment of shadow.]

[You don't like to argue about victory or defeat, nor do you get entangled in the troubles of conflict, but you also cannot allow... anyone to disrupt this peaceful life.]

[The excess magical power absorbed during this period, combined with your enlightenment, has further pushed you beyond your limits in skills.]

[Mana Burst (Shadow) → Mana Burst (Light Devour)]

[Mana Burst (Light Devour): A+]

[As the name implies, it is the ability to devour light.]

[Vortigern is called the demonic dragon that devours light, and as one with the bloodline of a vile king, you inherit his shadow attribute.]

[Understanding the unity of light and shadow, you can now take away the ubiquitous light on this vast land and convert it into your own magical power.]

[With the blessing of the night, even the radiance emitted by noble phantasms can be easily devoured by you. Perhaps, only those legendary artifacts won't have their brilliant light consumed by you.]

[With the light-devouring property, your magical power will be the pervasive, extremely dark fluctuation that corrodes everything.]

"Huu..."

"Haa..."

Inhale deeply, then exhale slowly.

Alvin adjusted his breathing, and with the chilling cold spreading in the air, the light around him seemed to distort slightly.
