“In our family, a child with the power of the dark arts is born every generation, though only one per generation. That’s why you have no siblings.”

When a child with dark magic was born into the Ariel family, the parents of that generation would either become naturally infertile or, like Hanaella’s mother, die in childbirth.

If a male child was born during that generation, he would only be able to use half of his dark power, so the Knights would have fewer members than if a female child was born.

Although the Knights are all human, they use dark magic, so their numbers are determined by the dark power of Ariel’s Lord, the Head of the Knights.

So when a girl, Hanaella, was born after hundreds of years, the Empire rejoiced, and the imperial court even held a banquet to celebrate her birth.

Right now, the relationship between Hanaella’s father and the Knights Legionnaire was conditional master-servant, meaning it could be broken at any time.

However, when they sign a contract to remain as servants, their lives become one, and if one of them dies, the other’s life also ends, so it becomes a relationship that’s impossible to break.

“But why do we need to make a pact of continuation? If one dies, the other dies with them, and that’s a bit dangerous, isn’t it? Did any of your female ancestors ever make that kind of contract?”
