Chapter 14: Pave 10 Paths and Earn a Penny (4)
‘All of nature breathes just as those doomed to perish breathe. Plagues are the same, so if there is a moment of pause, its breath will eventually come out and spread an epidemic throughout the continent. I call it the Black Cloud.’
Divination.
Since ancient times, it has been widely known that Demon Lords were the only ones who could possess this ability.
They were referred to as oracles of God back when Demon Lords used to be treated as such. As time passed, or possibly, because the veils of magic gradually lifted from the world, people stopped believing in the Demon Lords’ prophecies.
The number of Demon Lords who were capable of making prophecies slowly diminished before they vanished entirely. Demon scholars had come to a general consensus that ‘Demon Lords possess higher intellect than the average person, so people may have misunderstood their simple predictions as prophecies’.
His Highness Dantalian possesses the ability of divination?
There was no way. Lapis’ rationality immediately refuted. No matter how much you try to predict the future, it was impossible.
……Regardless, has he always been hiding this overwhelming presence?
Lapis found it hard to swallow as saliva pooled in her mouth. Demon Lord Dantalian’s voice slammed against her like thunder.
