‘I knocked it down.’
Leo caught his breath and looked at the place where Silatuna had disappeared.
The final stop of a terrible relationship.
The three greatest evils of Tartarus that great heroes have repeatedly failed to subdue.
When the punitive force gained the power to fight against Erebos, the legion commanders began to avoid confrontation with the great heroes and began targeting other heroes.
Although the punitive force had become stronger, its number was still five, and it was impossible to block the corps commander’s air attacks simultaneously from multiple locations.
They judged that they could not defeat both Erebos and the corps commander with the power of the punitive force alone, so they focused on defeating Erebos.
‘Because it was the best thing at the time.’
He could not devote his energies to the corps commander while leaving the great disaster called Erebos alone.
Leo took a deep breath and turned his head.
And before Leo returned from the world of heroes.
I walked towards Calian, who had stopped Silatuna.
Jeopuk- Jeopuk-
My whole body screamed.
But Leo didn’t care.
After a while, Leo reached where Calian was, closed his eyes and let out a long sigh.
Calian stood.
The body may have already reached its limits.
He was a man praised as a hero who carried the times, but in the end, he was an old hero who had lived for a century.
Even with the help of the dragon Riven, stopping Silatuna was a feat worthy of being called a miracle.
Calian, who was standing using his sword as a cane, looked at Leo and smiled.
“… … He is indeed a great hero. Defeating the monster queen… … .”
Leo’s eyes sank.
The life of the Sword Saint who praised the hero of the beginning was slowly dying out.
He even burned his own life to stop the demon queen.
“I didn’t do it alone.”
Leo looked back.
“Oh oh… … Luna… … .”
“… … “What about these people?”
Luna asked cautiously.
“They are the ones who stopped Silatuna before we came.”
“It was all about holding on.”
Calian bowed his head.
“We couldn’t do anything on our own.”
Calian’s eyes sank.
“If it weren’t for you… … Many heroes… … Many students must have died. “I was inadequate as a person responsible for an era.”
Leo said as he looked at Calian, who was blaming himself with trembling hands.
“No, I was able to withstand it because you relieved me of my strength while blocking Silatuna. “If it weren’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to hold out until Luna came.”
“You deserve to be proud as a hero.”
Luna approached Caliane and held her trembling hand and spoke strongly.
“So lift your head up.”
Calian raised his head at Luna’s words and said.
“… … I have admired you since I was young. The peace you gave us… … “I wanted to protect it.”
Calian’s voice trembled.
“As someone who carries the times… … It is natural to use one’s life for future generations… … What you said to me… … “It is an unbelievable honor for me.”
The strength in his voice gradually disappeared.
“I have one request. “Hero of the beginning.”
Calian mustered the last of his strength and looked at Leo.
“… … To this old man… … “Can you please show me hope?”
Geomseong expressed his earnest wish.
“you are… … What is your relationship with Leo Plov?”
Leo took a deep breath at that question.
And Luna’s magic was dismantled.
Under the sunset sky.
Calian’s eyes widened when he saw the great hero change into the form of a boy.
And he smiled brightly as if he was relieved… … Soon she closed her eyes.
Luna, who carefully accepted the falling Sword Saint, spoke in a whisper to him as he reached his end.
“… … thank you for your effort. May your story be remembered for a lifetime… … .”
Luna, who blessed the hero’s end, carefully laid Calian down and looked at Leo’s back as he approached Riven.
Riven was also approaching his end.
Leo, with his back to the sunset, looked down at Riven and said.
“Don’t worry, follow the Sword Saint.”
“… … yes.”
“The hero you chose was the best. Lisinas will also be proud of you for choosing the best hero according to his wishes.”
“That’s right… … “It is such a great honor.”
Riven, who smiled weakly, also slowly closed his eyes.
Luna said, looking at the two deceased heroes.

“I have watched countless people die… … “I still can’t get used to it.”
Luna closed her eyes, put her hands together, and prayed for the two people.
Leo looked at that noble figure in silence.
After a while, Luna opened her eyes and smiled as she looked at Leo.
Luna’s body began to glow faintly.
The end of miracles is approaching.
Leo gritted his teeth.
“roo… … me.”
I called Luna in a trembling voice.
“Shh.”
Luna covered her mouth with her index finger and spoke in a low whisper.
“Can’t I send it to you with a smile on my face? “Just like back then.”
Luna smiled brightly as she remembered Leo, who had shown her the magic of making flowers bloom the other day.
“We will meet again someday. Of course, there is no guarantee that another me will cherish this memory as I do now… … .”
Luna slightly closed her eyes.
“But we’ll probably meet again.”
Like friends we’ll meet again tomorrow.
Luna approached Leo with light steps.
“So Kyle.”
Luna reached out and stroked Leo’s cheek.
The light emanating from Luna’s body became increasingly brighter.
“Please don’t give up.”
Luna kissed Leo’s cheek.
“Because I fell in love with that wonderful figure of not giving up.”
Luna smiled shyly and stepped back.
“For sure… … “We will meet again.”
Woe!
Luna’s body turned into powder of light and disappeared.
Leo unconsciously stroked his right cheek in response to the warmth remaining on his cheek.
Then he looked at the spot where Luna had disappeared and smiled bitterly.
“… … “What would be the difference if I gave you some tea?”
Before we knew it, the sun had set and darkness came.
Snow fell on the cold battlefield.
In this way, the Battle of Seilun, which became a page of history, came to an end.
***
News related to the subjugation of the Demon Queen shook the whole world.
The end of a disaster that has threatened the world for a long time.
What excited people even more than that was the second coming of the ‘Great Hero’.
Luna, the progenitor of the nebula.
And Kyle, the hero of the beginning, for whom evidence of his existence was recently discovered.
When they first heard the news that a great hero from the distant past had appeared in this world, many people could not believe it.
However, when it was officially recognized by Lumern and Seirun, the world was shaken.
The subjugation of the monster queen who had threatened the world for a long time.
And even the appearance of a great hero.
It literally became a festive atmosphere.
But the atmosphere in Rumern was dark.
Erech Grand Parade of Rumern.
The students were all dressed in black and lined up.
In a solemn atmosphere, flowers were laid at the portrait of Kalian at the Grand Parade of Erek.
It wasn’t just the students.
Numerous graduates from all over the world visited Rumern.
Among them, some showed tears.
A great hero who took office as the principal of Lumern for a long time and became the guide and goal of many heroes.
The death of such a swordsman was enough to cause huge repercussions.
As the wreath-giving ends and everyone pays tribute to Geomseong.
Halind stood in front of the microphone on the podium.
-A letter left by the principal when he was alive was found.
Everyone’s eyes turned to Halind.
-I will read the principal’s final words aloud because he wanted me to read them in front of everyone here.
Halind held the letter with his characteristic expressionless face and began to read it.
[I hoped this letter would never be revealed to the world, but I ended up leaving my last words in this letter.
I sincerely hope that no student loses his or her life.
Don’t be sad about this old man’s death.
It is natural for a hero to draw his sword for future generations.
I just did the obvious thing.
Don’t attach much significance to my death.
I am just one person disappearing into history.
Move forward.
Just like I did.
Just like many previous heroes did.
Always remember these words.
Go beyond your limits.
I hope that everyone who hears these words will continue to surpass themselves and become great heroes who will lead the world.
I will trust you.]
The reading of Kalian’s letter has ended.
Afterwards, the funeral ended with the heroes gathering to show the highest respect to the departing Sword Saint.
In this way, the era of swordsmanship was coming to an end.
***
Tower of Rumern Heroes.
In the principal’s office at the very top, someone was looking down at the panoramic view of Lumern.
“… … He was a very playful person. But he was still someone worth respecting.”
The man spoke in a heavy voice.
“Whenever I visited, I would look down on Rumern from here. “It was as if he was watching the students one by one.”
The man sighed bitterly and looked back.
“But like his will, we can’t just be sad forever. “I can’t leave the positions of Rumern’s principal and vice principal empty.”
“I agree with that, Chairman.”
Halind said calmly.
“So who do you think would be suitable as principal? Many people are recommending Professor Halind and Professor Sedzen as candidates.”
A hero called Infinity Speller.
Altech Geron, the owner of the Geron family and chairman of the board of Lumern, asked the two professors.
Halind and Sedzen.
The two people were not listed on Hero Records.
However, they have a high reputation as Lumern’s famous professors who created numerous heroes.
It was clear that Lumern’s current professors, as well as numerous alumni, would support one of the two becoming principal.
But Halind and Sedzen shook their heads.
“I am not the principal’s vessel. Chairman.”
“I also agree with Halind’s opinion.”
“This is difficult. “I wanted one of you to be the principal.”
Altech looked regretful.
“Then, can I delegate the principal candidate to you two?”
Originally, the authority to appoint a principal was held by the chairman of the board.
However, Altech attempted to delegate its enormous authority to Halind and Sedgen.
The two professors have been involved in the teaching profession even before Altech became the chairman of the board.
Therefore, he was a man whom Altech trusted and relied on just as much as Calian.
“I understand. “Let’s find a candidate.”
As Sedgen nodded, Altech nodded.
And he said it seriously.
“Then, I would like to discuss the department schedule with you two.”
At those words, Halind sighed deeply as if he was in pain.
“… … “It’s not a situation where I can finish my academic schedule.”
Geomsung is dead.
Now, people are excited about the subjugation of the Monster Queen and the emergence of great heroes, but… … .
You will find out soon.
How big is the empty space for the Sword Saint?
Of course, Tartarus also lost its demon queen.
It was clear that it would be a huge blow.
However, the death of the Sword Saint was an equally enormous loss.
It is no exaggeration to say that the peace of the current era was maintained by the enormous deterrent power of the Sword Saint.
The situation was literally in a precarious balance.
The axis of balance collapsed.
In that case, there was no way to know what kind of provocation would come from Tartarus.
“I understand that Seirun’s internal movements are unusual.”
Seirun’s schedule for all departments was now halted.
“The identity of that unidentified corps commander is still unknown… … There is a high probability that he is a corps commander from the distant past. “After searching through the literature, scholars came to the conclusion that it might be ‘Poison King Zerdiac.’”
This is the place where great heroes appear.
There is no law that prevents you from revealing to the world that you were a former corps commander.
The question, then, is how the former commander appeared in the middle of Seirun.
“Great hero… … Past corps commander… … Of course, there’s only one thing I can think of. “It’s a hero record.”
Altech nodded at Sedgen’s words.
“That’s right. And there is a high probability that the traitors within Seirun have summoned the past legionary commander. Rumern also showed up as a corps commander who was subjugated by the Sword Saint. And actually… … .”
Altech said in a firm voice.
“It is said that one of Luna’s hero records has completely disappeared.”
After hearing Altech’s words, Halind and Sedgen looked serious.
“So, I request that a faculty and staff meeting be convened to discuss this agenda.”
“What is the agenda?”
“We are moving the vacation a little earlier. “I think we need to send the students home first and reorganize Rumern for future situations.”
