Darcia/Biography

DarciaStatus**Biography**RelationshipsMedia

## Background

Darcia was born as the daughter of Zerethia and Fidaril. While working as an adventurer, she was approached by Valen and she fell in love at first sight. When Darcia became pregnant, it infuriated Valen's master, so the two of them eloped in the safety of sunlight to avoid execution. While traveling, Valen proposes they decide on a name for the baby: Varcia if a girl, and Vandalieu if a boy. However, when the clouds gathered in rainfall, three vampires emerged from hiding and Valen had to sacrifice his life to hold them off, while Darcia fled.

Running away, she hid herself in a secret cave dwelling in the forest of Evbejia, where she gave birth to a son, whom she named Vandalieu. She spent the next few months hunting in the woods, and raising her son. After confirming that Vandalieu had inherited his father's sunlight resistance, she entered town to begin preparing for their departure, planning to hide her son in the dark elf village. However, she was ambushed by Baronet Bestero's men and the church's priests, including adventurers hired to hunt her. She fought valiantly until exhaustion got the better of her, and Heinz was able to knock her out with the back of his sword. She was then handed over to the church, where she was whipped and burnt with hot iron rods, but she refused to succumb to the torture. Realizing she would not give up the location of the dhampir, Bormack Gordan publicly burnt her at a stake in the town square.

Her soul lingered next to the fountain, until her son sought her out, riding on a bone monkey. She was pleased to finally be able to hear her son's voice as a spirit, but was reluctant to tell her son the details on what had transpired. However, through Death-Attribute Charm she was forced to tell him the truth. As her soul dissapates, she expressed her regret at being unable to see what kind of man Vandalieu would grow into, and see him happily surrounded by his own children. Vandalieu used his magic to store her soul and consciousness within a surviving bone fragment found among her burnt ashes.

## Journey

She reawakens the next day late at noon, where she finds her son already up and greets him good morning. He promises to fully resurrect her one day, and she promises to stay by his side. Alongside the Living Bones, they celebrate Vandalieu's first birthday with song and a tooth necklace. She apologizes that she was unable to arrange a proper celebration for him, but he tries comforting her that he's used to it since his first life as Amamiya Hiroto, which seems to break her heart. When Vandalieu tells her his plans to hunt bandits for leveling purposes, she is at first worried, since even D-class adventurers like herself would have to gather in groups just to apprehend such criminals.

When Vandalieu insists on being ok cooking, it worries Darcia, until she finally snaps at him, reminding him that he is still only 1 year old and should listen to his mother. When Sam becomes a carriage, she is happy for his sake. Returning to Evbejia, she witnesses her son exact vengeance on her behalf by turning the city upside down. She is proud that her son showed some consideration, by giving them a chance to rebuild, and although she cannot touch him, she places her palm above his head to mimic the movement of patting him like she used to.

While travelling, Vandalieu noted how Darcia's memories were deteriorating, because she didn't die with a strong resentment to keep her grounded like Sam, demonstrated by how she recounts the story about Valen multiple times, forgetting she had just told it once she finished telling the tale. Darcia advises against going to the dark elf village, since without her there was no way of proving his identity. Instead she suggests going to Orbaume Kingdom, where she thinks the treatment of dhampirs would be different, given how some dukes there are beast-men or titans, though she had never gone there herself before. However, after speaking with a spirit, Vandalieu learns that war is brewing between Orbaume and Amid, therefore he changes their route to entering Orbaume through the southern end of the continent.

## Volume 4

The fourth day Vandalieu tried to go to the Hartner Duchy as she was awake in the morning she stopped him from leaving telling that it might be better if he leveled up more, as Vandalieu had hit a wall. After this she said that she wanted to accompany him, by the time Vandalieu managed to persuade her the sun had already fallen.

## Darcia explanation (Written by Luciliano):

*Shared in comment section by User:Telephoto69 04/05/2019*
The strongest mother that Master imagined. There is no other way to summarize Darcia’s existence.

In her previous life, she was a Dark Elf of less than a hundred years of age, a D-class adventurer who only experienced the Apprentice Mage, Archer and Spiritual Mage Jobs. However, she is now a being who could fight on even terms against an S-class adventurer… It would not be impossible for her to emerge victorious in a battle to the death against such a foe. After all, it is hard for her to die completely, in a different way from which this is true for Master and Legion.

First of all, she possesses both the Magic Resistance and Physical Resistance Skills at Level 10. Due to this, it would be hard for unskilled enemies to inflict deep wounds upon her, no matter what weapons or spells they used. Her Status Effect Resistance Skill is Level 10 as well, so she is resistant to the effects of poisons and curses as well.

Furthermore, she has acquired ‘Divine Metal Skeleton’ as a result of Master crafting her skeleton from Orichalcum with great precision. Due to this, she will never suffer a bone fracture. Not even a small crack. After all, her skeleton is made of Orichalcum, which is physically sturdier than Adamantite, is more magically resistant than Mythril and even absorbs shock due to its incredible flexibility.

Even if struck by a weapon that is also made of Orichalcum, the bone would not be damaged unless the wielder of the weapon is extremely skilled.

If her joints are caught in a lock, even if they are twisted in the opposite direction, they would not be destroyed and would return to normal quickly after they are released.

Even if one were to overcome all of these obstacles and inflict a significant wound upon her, there would be almost no point, as she possesses incredible regenerative abilities in the Super Rapid Regeneration Skill. Even if her limbs were to be severed, they would regrow within a minute.

Furthermore, Darcia’s fighting abilities are impressive. She received general instruction from the ‘Mercenary King’ Veld while learning Archery from Rishare, the god of hunting; Dagger Technique from Derborah, the goddess of hearths… probably. She has received such training. (She had the opportunity to train in Skills such as Lovemaking and Bedroom Skill from Godwin’s grandmother, but apparently declined.)

She is also able to cast life-attribute, water-attribute and wind-attribute magic… Challenging her would be foolish.

As a result of her training in the Divine Realm, her ability in combat has apparently improved to the point that she was able to exchange blows in mock battles against Pure-breed Vampires. They said that with a body, she might be able to win against them.

And Master is planning to have her constantly monitored by Demon King Familiars, which serve as both familiars and as his clones, there will be no openings to take advantage of.

She has not yet acquired a Job, as she has been reborn, but once she begins progressing through Job changes… there is no telling what the future holds for her.

However, what is surprising is that she has become the Chaos Elf Source, the founder of a new race, and that she has become an incarnation of the goddess.

It can be assumed that the Chaos Elf race is an even more powerful version of the Dark Elf race, but the details are still unclear. However, it seems that Darcia can turn any willing Elves or Dark Elves into Chaos Elves by giving them her blessing (in the form of a kiss). Also, it is apparently possible to turn humans into Chaos Elves, though it takes more time.

From these facts, it can be assumed that ‘Source’ is equivalent in meaning to ‘origin.’

I think that this is a chance to experience the transformation into another race for myself as an experiment, increasing my own lifespan even further, but… I shall seek Master’s approval first. Even if my request is not granted, the Pure-breed Vampires slumbering in Vida’s Resting Grounds will apparently awaken due to Darcia’s resurrection, so I could have one of them turn me into a Vampire… or I could even ask Master himself.

As for being an incarnation of the goddess, it is apparently accurate to think of it as an extremely powerful divine protection. That is a result of having trained in Vida’s Divine Realm, however.

It can be assumed that this is also the reason she possesses the Goddess Descent Skill, a superior version of the Heroic Spirit Descent and Familiar Spirit Descent Skills. This allows her to temporarily fuse with the goddess.

Incidentally, Master is planning to go to Vida’s Resting Grounds to hear directly about her Titles.
