Dalkak-
Leo returned to his dorm room and sat down at his desk.
The sun had already set.
‘Is summer coming to an end now?’
Feeling the weather getting cooler, Leo looked up at the moonlit sky.
Then he took out an old notebook from his pocket.
Sigh-
I carefully swept the leather cover.
From the moment I first met Lisinas.
I often saw him writing here every evening.
Leo took a deep breath and opened his memoir.
I saw blank pages with nothing written on them, just like I had seen in the gold library earlier.
Leo, who saw this, created mana at his fingertips.
A faint glow appeared on the page, and Lisinas’ neat writing style came to mind.
The story began before I met Kyle.
To be precise, it was when the era of disaster began.
Palak- Palak-
‘These are all stories I heard from Lisinas a long time ago.’
Palak-
I remembered stories a friend had told me in the past.
Leo’s hand stopped as he remembered the story he shared with his friend.
[I met a ‘surviving hero’ today. As rumored, he is a guy with a very twisted personality. My ability is clear, but how can I fix this pessimistic personality? How on earth should I lead this guy?]
‘This guy. ‘You were planning on dragging me to the punitive force from the beginning?’
Leo burst out laughing.
I remembered my first meeting with Lisinas at God’s Throne.
‘The first meeting was at the mercenary guild.’
At that time, Risinas was called a fool.
Lysinas, who went around boasting that he would defeat Erebos in a world full of despair, would not have seemed sane to the people at the time.
‘Because it was such a desperate time.’
It was a desperate time when I spent each day just hoping that Erebos and Tartarus would not invade.
Kyle was also busy drinking at the mercenary guild as always.
‘You’re the surviving hero, Kyle, right?’
‘Then are you the lizard who is called the fool? ‘What business do you have for me?’
‘you. ‘Would you like to be my colleague?’
I was surprised by the sudden suggestion.
At the time, the ‘surviving hero’ was a symbol of misfortune.
No one wanted to team up with Kyle.
A hand extended to someone who was used to being alone.
However, Kyle was not pleased with Lisinas’ proposal.
‘I’m sorry, but it’s a refusal. ‘I have no interest in suicide.’
“The first meeting was the worst.”
Afterwards, Lisinas persistently visited Kyle for several weeks.
In the sparsely written notes, the period was recorded every day.
‘You’ve ripped off the insults. Well, it can’t be helped. ‘Because I was so ticklish.’
Sigh – While licking his lips, Leo recalled memories of those days.
Even though he felt like giving up, Lisinas did not give up.
Then one day.
Tartarus has invaded Guardslawn on a large scale.
To stop the invasion, Kyle and Lisinas formed a party for the first time.
And on the plain where the corpses were piled up, Lisinas spoke.
“No matter how much I think about it, my choice was not wrong.”
Lisinas said while looking at the gray sky.
“After all, there is only you. “Kyle.”
Lisinas smiled brightly.
Kyle saw a light in that smile that he didn’t know why.
“You are the beginning.”
A white and beautiful hand that I held out several times without giving up.
“Come with me, Kyle. “I need you.”
A world full of only despair.
At first, it was annoying to see Lisinas smiling so hopefully in that world.
Kyle at the time was no different from other people.
The destruction of the world is not far away.
It was a time when I was falling endlessly, spending my days in debauchery, just trying to live as happily as possible today.
Maybe it was natural for Lisinas to be annoying.
If Kyle was taking a step into the darkness… … Because Rishinath was taking her steps towards the light.
“Why am I growing up?”
“Because you are strong. “I will survive until the end, and.”

“and?”
“Even if you gave up and despaired, the look in your eyes is still alive.”
Lisinas grinned.
“It’s glowing in the dark.”
It was the first time in my life.
The moment someone seemed so noble.
“What you are hoping for is such a foolish wish. “It’s impossible.”
But until the end, Kyle denied Lisinas’s wish.
But despite such denial, this foolish woman remained the same.
“That’s right, Kyle. “My wish is a very foolish wish.”
She said without thinking of withdrawing her outstretched hand.
“But Kyle. “We will save the world.”
The heart that doesn’t give up.
That appearance is consistently noble.
“Let’s go together. You will no longer have to see your comrades dying in front of your eyes. Because I’m strong too.”
Kyle was saved.
Kyle thought as he held the outstretched hand.
I want to make this foolish wish come true.
[Finally, this damned guy who didn’t listen to me joined the punitive force. He is a guy who doesn’t listen to anything. But still, I have taken one step forward. This meeting will definitely change the fate of the world.]
After that, the memoir continued.
The day Luna came in.
The day Aron joined.
And the day we gathered together at Dweno.
A punitive force took shape.
As Lisinas boasted, the world regained its light.
[The final expedition begins tomorrow. All preparations have been completed. I did everything I could. Now all that remains is to defeat Erebos. I hope I can achieve my ideal.]
With that, the memoir came to an end.
During his last expedition, Lisinas left this memoir behind.
After reading the entire memoir, Leo flipped through the blank pages.
Then I stopped at the last page.
[To Kyle]
Leo took a deep breath.
It was clearly a letter written by Lisinas to Kyle.
‘It’s a letter that Lisinas left to his colleagues… … ‘The letter you left for me was visible because it reacted to my mana.’
I took a deep breath and turned the page after reading my friend’s letter.
[If you are reading this letter and not me… … It would mean that the world was saved, but I died in the last expedition.]
Kuuk-
Leo’s hands tightened.
[You have a twisted personality. He is often sarcastic and swears. There were many times when I really wanted to punch my solar plexus, but I held back each time.]
‘… … no. Why did you dropkick me in the solar plexus? What do you mean it doesn’t count because it’s not a fist?’
Although I burst out laughing, I read the letter.
[but… … My choice was not wrong. If you are reading this letter, the world could be saved because of you.]
“… … “I couldn’t do anything alone.”
He denied Lisinas’ words.
[Kyle. Thank you for following me on my reckless expedition.
And I’m sorry.
I didn’t want you to be the surviving hero.
But I ended up showing you my friend dying.
I promised it wouldn’t happen that way… … I’m really sorry for not being able to protect you.
So I hope your future is happy. Don’t be left alone anymore.
I don’t want to be the one surviving alone anymore.
It was a pleasure being together.
If the world becomes peaceful… … I want you to be really happy. Kyle]
Drop- Drop-
[I hope you are blessed as you begin a new era. Lisinas.]
The contents of the letter appeared blurry.
The tears that began to flow down my cheeks soaked the contents of the letter.
“You damn lizard… … They said they wouldn’t show me dying… … .”
In all this time, I have never ignored the death of a colleague.
However, I did not overcome or overcome it.
However, I thought I had become calm.
But the tears didn’t stop.
A letter from a close friend who worries about him even after his death… … How can you not shed tears?
Leo gathered his emotions as he remembered the mean-spirited colleague who had left before him.
[PS: I really wasn’t going to say this? But I just can’t stand it.]
Then I read the text at the end of the page and turned the page with a puzzled look on my face.
[You bastard. Fool. You idiot. fool. Don’t breathe. Go out and search. Stick your nose in the water and die.]
Leo made a moment of bewilderment at the words of profanity and curses written so large that they filled the page, creating a touching atmosphere.
Unlike the neat handwriting, it was very nervous.
“No, suddenly something… … .”
I felt the tears stop and I turned the pages with a bewildered expression on my face.
[I liked you. You didn’t know until the end?]
“… … .”
Leo blinked after seeing the last words left by Lisinas.
And I thought about the text several times.
Still, I didn’t understand.
‘therefore. This is a letter written by Lisinas, so I am Lisinas. This is a letter written only for me to see, so you’re saying it’s me, right? Then, does ‘I liked you’ mean that Lisinas liked me?’
“ok?”
Leo made an uncharacteristically stupid noise and pressed his face close to the book.
“Huh?”
Leo, who still looked at the note from a distance with a dumb expression on his face, eventually understood the contents and let out a look of astonishment with a red face.
“What!!!”
***
Whioooooooo-
A foul-smelling wind blew.
It’s the smell of a corpse.
If it had been an ordinary creature, it would have probably died from suffocation from the poison and smell the moment it smelled it.
This is truly the most terrible place on earth.
It was the headquarters of the Commander-in-Chief of Tartarus, the King of Demons.
“long time no see. Hell Kaiser.”
Hearing the words of the Demon Queen, Silatuna, the Demon King Hell Kaiser curled the corners of his mouth.
“Has it been 100 years?”
For humans, it is a long time, long enough to last one generation.
However, for monsters that have lived for thousands of years, it was not that long of a time.
“I heard all about the story in Lumern this time. “It looks like we lost all our limbs.”
“It’s not just the Sioux. The Cursed King also completely disappeared.”
Silatuna crossed his arms.
“I ‘brought’ him out after making quite a few sacrifices.”
Silatuna’s plan to resurrect the Curse King.
It all came to nothing because of this incident.
Thanks to this, everything that had been infiltrated into Lumern for a long time was lost.
“I was in such a bad mood that I was thinking about destroying the country.”
“Which country is it?”
“What was the name of that kid who was all class or something? Leo Plov? “That guy’s country was a small kingdom on the border.”
Silatuna spoke as if stepping on a passing ant.
“I think I’m going to trample on that country.”
“It’s the outskirts, but it’s in front of the Rodren Empire. “It’s not a place you can take lightly.”
“But I’m bored.”
Corps commander.
They were terrifying monsters that could destroy a small kingdom overnight if they wanted to.
The Demon King spoke in response to Silatuna’s words.
“There are still many things that are lacking to run wild. Silatuna. “It’s already been a long time since we started training future corps commanders.”
“yes. that’s right. “It was raised well 3,000 years ago, but it was subjugated by those damn things.”
Annoyance appeared on Silatuna’s face.
At that time, as the seven army commanders were subdued, half of the power of the earthly races was also destroyed.
However, considering the level of damage, Tartarus suffered even greater damage.
“Afterwards, subjugation was repeated… … “In the end, we are just standing still.”
To the races on earth, the term ‘corps commander’ is a thrilling fear.
From the perspective of the Demon King and the Demon Queen, they are still just babies.
“So what kind of experiment did you do recently?”
“What is it?”
“We are ‘bringing out’ our old comrades.”
“Isn’t it impossible?”
“Our god’s power is getting stronger.”
Hell Kaiser smiled, showing his teeth.
A dark red eye light flashed and a skull was revealed.
It looks like a white skull with a large ruby embedded in it.
“Then it’s not impossible. Of course, it may not be possible in a perfect state.”
“It might be worth a try. So how far has the plan progressed?”
Hell Kaiser laughed at Silatuna’s question.
“soon.”
