The place we arrived at with Riven was at the top of the clock tower in the center of Lumeria City.
‘This is the first time I knew there was something like this inside the clock tower.’
I went up the stairs with a surprised expression on my face.
‘Is this some kind of watchtower?’
The countless magic covering the clock tower confused Leo’s eyes.
‘It’s all made up of Dragon Word magic. ‘Wizards will roll their eyes when they see it, right?’
Leo looked at the magic formula that made up the clock tower with interest.
Although Leo had become familiar with the various magic techniques of the current era, there was a magic system that he had not encountered yet.
That was Yongeon magic.
Yongeon magic can only be used on dragons.
It was similar to star magic in that other races could not use it.
But there is a fundamental difference between the two.
Star magic is a magic system optimized for elves.
As long as you have the magic sense to change the magic that was tailored for elves to human form, you can use it regardless of race, but it was not dragon magic.
‘It is difficult to properly interpret a magic formula made up of verbs. Even if we interpret it, there is the biggest problem.’
That is horsepower.
In order to activate Yongeon magic, the magical power emitted by the Dragon Heart was needed.
A dragon’s unique magical characteristics were required to activate a magic spell made up of dragon words.
Therefore, it was no exaggeration to say that Yongeon magic was the exclusive property of dragons.
As it is something that is rarely encountered, all wizards are eager to study Dragon Word magic.
Thump-thump-thump-
Riven, who had been walking up the stairs ahead, stopped.
There was a small door in front.
Squeak-
Riven opened the door and went inside.
“Come in.”
At Riven’s words, Leo entered the room.
Inside the room, another space spread out.
‘Is it space movement magic?’
Leo looked inside the room.
What unfolded before my eyes was a bleak landscape room.
The spotless crystal floor and walls came into view.
Other elements that would normally be present in a room, such as furniture or decorations, were nowhere to be found.
Leo’s eyes widened as he looked up at the ceiling.
There was a mural of a dragon painted all over the ceiling.
“Lisinas.”
“The true face of the King of Wisdom would not be famous among other races. “You recognized it right away?”
Leo turned his head.
What was there was a throne.
The only huge throne in a vast space.
And sitting there was a girl of about ten years old.
The girl’s appearance was strange.
The long hair that hung down to the floor was haphazardly disheveled, and among the silver tresses, black hair mixed in with flecks stood out.
Although she had a pretty face, her closed left eye and the bulging tendons around it gave her a strange aura.
Leo could easily tell that the girl in front of him was a dragon.
‘It’s not just a dragon. A very high-ranking dragon.’
It was when Leo was surprised to feel the magic coming from her.
Riven, who showed courtesy to the girl, spoke to Leo.
“You are Rod.”
Leo looked surprised at those words.
I knew that Riven was a dragon, but I had no idea that he would guide me to the Dragon Lord.
But the surprise was short-lived.
Leo patted the Dragon Lord’s right chest three times, then politely bowed his head and bent his knees.
It was the dragon’s greeting etiquette.
The reason why Leo was familiar with dragon etiquette was simple.
It was because there was someone who taught me to get crusts on my ears.
‘Why are you hitting my right breast three times?’
‘Because the dragon heart is located in the right chest. It means that you can hear the beating sound of the dragon heart.’
‘Oh yeah? But why do I have to learn things like dragon etiquette?’
‘Because there will be a lot of work to do after subjugating Erebos.’
‘I don’t think there will be anything at all? And even if it were, why should I follow dragon etiquette? And if that’s the case, shouldn’t we also learn from the things that are sleeping over there?’
Kyle, who couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night and was learning dragon etiquette that wasn’t even in the Eight Characters, said irritably.
Lishinas looked sullen at Leo’s reaction.
‘You are next to me in the punitive force, right? Of course, isn’t this a place where etiquette should be more important? There will be a lot to see between me and the dragons later!’
‘Why are you annoyed?’
‘shut up. Stop talking nonsense and just learn! Bend your knees more! The angle is weird, isn’t it?’
‘please! Let’s get some sleep! ‘Get some sleep!’

I remembered Rishinas, who forcibly held me back and tormented me to teach me manners.
Of course, I had nothing to write about in my life.
‘I’ll use that in my next life.’
Leo’s posture was perfect as Risinas stirred it up.
And when Lord and Riven saw that, their eyes widened.
Leo made a puzzled expression in response.
‘what? Have etiquette changed at all in 5,000 years?’
So what happened to the days when I couldn’t sleep and was tormented by Risinas every night?
“Phew!”
At that time, Rod covered his mouth with both hands and burst into laughter.
“Phew! Push! “Giggle!”
“Leo Plov. “Where did you learn that greeting?”
“I learned it from a book, is it wrong?”
“That’s not right. Rather perfect. however… … .”
“Phew! They’re like old folks from back in the day! Ahahahahaha!”
In the end, Rod couldn’t bear it any longer, so he held his stomach and burst into laughter.
“It’s an old ancient rite. This is a greeting method often used by our ancestors who have already passed away. “It’s a greeting rarely used these days, but it’s surprising that you used it.”
Leo relaxed his posture as he looked at Riven, who had a curious expression on his face.
‘What was my effort in the end?’
Looking at Leo who sighed deeply, Rod said, ‘Hmm!’ I cleared my throat.
“nice to meet you. Leo Plov. “My name is Melina.”
“Why did the Dragon Lord ask to see me?”
“I wanted to meet you.”
The playful side from just a moment ago is nowhere to be seen.
Although she looked like a small girl on the outside, the person in front of her was the pinnacle of dragons, Lord.
Melina looked at Leo.
“indeed… … “It is as Lord Riven said.”
Melina nodded and glanced at Riven.
“You are different from other heroes.”
After saying that, Melina winked at Riven.
Riven left the room.
Squeak-! thud-!
Only Leo and Melina remained in the room.
“Leo Plov.”
“yes.”
“Who are you?”
“This is Leo Plov, a hero candidate from Rumern.”
“Hehe – I asked the wrong question.”
Melina covered her mouth and laughed.
“I was shocked when I first heard your story.”
“Because it’s all class?”
“yes. Unprecedented. “It was the same ability as Kyle, the hero of the beginning who only exists in legends.”
Melina stared at Leo.
“You’re very interested in the hero of the beginning.”
“It has to be that way.”
Until now, Kyle has been treated as a fictional character.
As such, it was rare to see someone who gave Kyle an honorific title, even if he did not know about other great heroes.
Melina got up from the throne.
Ta-bak- Ta-bak-
Melina walked barefoot in front of Leo and looked up at the ceiling.
“I am the Dragon Lord. A person who continues the legacy of Lisinas, the king of great wisdom. That’s why they are beings who crave knowledge and wisdom of the world.”
Risinas, who once explored all the wisdom and knowledge of the world.
Leo knows why Lisinas sought knowledge and wisdom so much.
‘It was a struggle.’
To somehow find a way to subdue Erebos.
Ancient knowledge.
God’s knowledge.
I explored everything regardless.
But the answer I got was despair.
Still, I didn’t give up.
‘And it was you who found it.’
Melina spoke to Leo, who was thinking of Lisinas.
“As a result of my thirst for knowledge and wisdom, I became convinced that the hero of beginnings was real. But I couldn’t find any physical evidence. “The story remained, but the evidence of Kyle’s existence disappeared from this world.”
Melina, who was looking at the ceiling, slightly lowered her gaze.
Leo’s red eyes met wise silver ones.
Melina’s mouth draws an arc.
“Then Leo Plov. You showed up. And you gave the world proof that Kyle is not a fictional character.”
“It’s a coincidence.”
“that’s right. Everything can be explained by coincidence. It was a coincidence that I was born with all-class abilities. Achieving a feat worthy of praise was also a coincidence. It is also a coincidence that we are constantly associated with the world of great heroes. And the fact that we found evidence that the hero of the beginning existed can all be explained by saying that it was a coincidence.”
Melina smiled brightly, spreading her arms wide.
Of course, the tone of voice was as if there was nothing strange about such coincidences existing.
“But how are you going to explain this?”
Melina lowered her hands and took a step back.
And then I carefully opened my left eye, which had been closed.
Leo’s complexion changed when he met those eyes.
Perhaps because he could not control his power, his eye had a vertically slit pupil unique to a dragon, unlike his right eye, which was that of an ordinary human.
But that wasn’t why Leo was surprised.
As soon as her eyes opened, Melina’s magical power also changed.
As if opening his eyes was a signal, his magical power changed.
‘Lisinas’ magic power?’
“A long time ago, I successfully conquered Rishinas’ world and retrieved the page. As a reward for that strategy, I was able to inherit some of Rishinas’ magic power.”
Before I knew it, Melina’s voice had changed to a more polite tone.
“I have had the great honor of handling Lishinas-sama’s magic for a long time. But now that power doesn’t listen to me. “It was as if I had met the true owner.”
As the last survivor of the punitive force, Kyle shouldered everything for his comrades.
Among them was the dragon heart left behind by Lisinas.
For dragons, inheriting a dragon heart also means being a ‘successor.’
Melina grinned and pulled out something from subspace.
It was a very old children’s book.
“This is a ‘Heroes of the Beginning’ children’s book from thousands of years ago. “It’s probably the last children’s book from that era left in the world.”
Paralarak-
Melina flipped through the book and showed me the latter page.
The content was different from today’s children’s books.
The current fairy tale book ends with all five great heroes working together to defeat Erebos.
Children’s books from thousands of years ago were exactly like real history.
It had to be that way.
Since it is a book from the era when Hero Records was intact, it will contain actual history.
What Melina showed was none other than Lisinas, right before he closed his eyes.
“According to this book, Kyle inherited Master Lisinas’ Dragon Heart.”
Melina carefully closed the book and looked up at Leo.
“I’ll ask you again.”
Melina’s solemn eyes were filled with anticipation, envy, and respect.
“Who are you?”
Leo looked down at the Dragon Lord, who had inherited the power of Lisinas.
The eyes sparkling with wisdom somehow reminded me of a close friend.
Leo, who was looking at the scene in silence, scratched his head.
“Wow, what a quick-witted kid.”
Melina’s eyes widened at Leo’s words.
“It’s as you expected.”
Leo chuckled.
