Select an Authority!!

This window was annoying. It covered most of my view and there was no cancel or close button. I tapped the OK button and saw a list of authority.

Death

Slumber

Laziness

Fatigue

Dream

Nightmare

Illusion

Silence

Darkness

Shadow

Weakness

Stagnation

Simplification

Instant

Ease

Imagination

There are plenty of choices. But there are few which looked very suspicious and absurd. I frowned as I tried to decide which one I should take. I raised my finger to select one of them when-

"KYUIIIIIIIII!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

"UGH!!!"

Pi! Ding!!

-Lily crashed into my chest. I was sent back from unpreparedness toward her speed. I fell on my butt and saw the window was clearing up. I broke into cold sweat. It seems like my finger touched the window by chance when she crashed to my chest.

"Ren-sama!! Are you alright?!"

Alicia ran toward me. It seems like both of them were picking me up. I did take some time standing still for checking the advertisement. At the bottom of my view I saw a notice.

Congratulation for your Promotion into a Demon Lord!!

The flag Acedia – Death has been raised.

The Seven Demon Lord has finally awakened.

The Demon Lord Summit will be held within 6:23:59:44

It seems like I was getting dragged into something troublesome after this. I sighed.

"Is something bothering you, Ren-sama?"

Alicia asked worriedly. She picked up Lily from my chest into her arm.

"No, nothing at all. Let's get going."

I said. I pulled Sora's rein again. He was my subordinate and a smart horse. He didn't run even I had let go of his rein since I began reading the announcement. I glanced at Alicia and secretly checked on my Passive Buff Screen.

It seems like the buff from the event already started taking effect. I tapped the side selection as I followed Alicia. I selected Hero's side without hesitation. Permanent buff was more precious after all.
