I didn't know what to say. Should I keep my secret hidden or tell them everything?

I trust my parents… They had been taking care of me this entire time… but…

I don't know if I…

"I don't know what's that…" I said, averting my gaze.

"Sigh… She's clearly lying," said my father.

"Alma we are your parents do you really think we won't be able to tell when you're lying?" sighed my mother.

"Eh?!"

"And that response says it all, little lady," said my father.

"Alma…" sighed my mother.

"O-Okay… I don't know what are you talking about, mother, father… Can you at least explain to me?" I asked.

My mother and father stared at each other as they sighed.

My father quickly decided to conjure a spell that generates a yellow mist around the room where we were, blocking any sound from coming out… Can a Nature Attribute Magus do such a thing?! I thought they were about using plants and stuff…

"What spell is that?" I asked.

"Sound-proof Flower Fragrance," said my father.

The what?!

"An old spell he always uses to secure that no one else can hear us talk inside a room," sighed my mother.

"Now that we are more secure… Alma, let me tell you what Unique Skills are… And how are those that wield them dangerous to this world…" said my father.

"Dangerous?" I asked.

"Indeed. Unique Skills, in a lack for a better term, are gifts, Abilities gifted to people…" said my father.

"Unique Skill users are not something new… It is something that is present in every era after the Ragnar?k between the first Aesir, the Primordial beings who shaped and created our world with their corpses… According to the Immortals that had guided us, Unique Skill users have been present since the Remote Antiquity Era," said my mother.

"Eh? Remote Antiquity Era?" I asked.

"It is something yet to be taught to you, but through time there have been many Eras, the Remote Antiquity Era is the second era after the Immemorial Antiquity Era… That's where all the Gods were born and later on killed each other," said my father.

"After our new world was born… according to the stories, the Remote Antiquity Era came to be, where all mortals fought against the endless waves of monsters that originated from the Chaos left after the world was rebuilt," said my mother.

"More or less, this is not something that we should talk about as of now, let us go back to the topic…" said my father.

"Indeed. Unique Skill users emerged within the late periods of the Remote Antiquity Era, spontaneously, a few people were simply born with inherent powers that were not related with Magic," said my mother.

"These were called the Five Great Devils by our ancestor, Oberon the first mortal to have achieved Rank 10 in the past. You must already know that we refer to him as Primordial Fairy King of Life and Nature Immortal Venerable, right, Alma?" said my father.

What? I can barely cope with what they are speaking about. This is… nuts.

And yes… I kind of already knew that Oberon is worshiped like a savior of all mortals, even of other races, as he was the first mortal to raise to Rank 10 and become unparalleled. It was thanks to his power that mortals were able to fight back against the Chaos it seems, and the endless waves of monsters that came forward…

I nodded.

"Well, as you can see, Oberon did not only fought against the Grand Calamities that were born from the Chaos' Miasma, but also against these treacherous Devils, the Great Five Devils were normal mortals whose powers defied all logic. They all raised to Rank 9 incredibly quickly through their powers and filled the world with even more Chaos. Oberon managed to defeat them all, of course, but the damage they caused to the world shaped it for millions of years to come…" sighed my father.

"This is quite an ancient story, but our world and our history must be remembered, all of this is real, Alma, never forget the history of our world… What you carry within you is most likely a power similar to the Great Five Devils, Unique Skills," said my mother.

"The Great Five Devils legacies still exist up until now…" said my father.

"The first Great Devil, the Great Devil of Summoned Monsters was one of the most problematic Devil. It possessed the ability to summon monsters, generating them out of thin air through the exchange of Mana… he filled the world with a variety of monster races that never existed before, even that not even the Chaos brought to life," said my mother.

"The second Great Devil, the Great Devil of Dungeons used its Unique Skill to fill the world with enormous structures named Dungeons, which grew in size by absorbing Mana and Miasma from the environment… Oberon said that he helped at appeasing the Miasma, but was not a righteous person. Dungeons now cover the entire world of Yggdrasil thanks to him, and they bring forth even more monsters and dangers… but also treasures inside. We have learned to use dungeons as resource points, but high-level dungeons can endanger an entire nation," said my father.

"The third Great Devil, the Great Devil of Creation used its Unique Skill to bring all sorts of otherworldly artifacts and strange technology that threatened the entire world with its pollution… Such technology has been suppressed since all this time, but it is said that it has permanently affected our world," said my mother.

"The fourth Great Devil, the Great Devil of Destruction used its Unique Skill to bring forth irreparable destruction into our world and the walls of fire and ice that cover all of Yggdrasil. Its destructive power was so immense it even shook Fate itself," said my father.

"And lastly… the Fifth Great Devil…" sighed my mother.

"The Fifth Great Devil, the Great Devil of Death used its Unique Skill to kill people en masse alongside monsters… I also meddled with Helheim and made it so the souls of the dead can remain in the mortal world…" said my father.

I was left speechless.
