Leo looked at the spirit in front of him.
It didn’t take long to reach the top of this castle of delight.
It was clear that all of the illusions that unfolded here were dangerous illusions that could even take one’s life.
But it didn’t work for Leo.
Turp-plop-
Leo approached Larel.
Larel looked at Leo with an expressionless face.
“How did we get here so quickly?”
The illusion of Larel cannot be destroyed no matter how strong the being who steps into the illusion is.
It was a fair ‘test’ for everyone, regardless of strength.
I passed that test with ridiculous ease.
Leo said in response to Larel’s question.
“Because I’ve already experienced it all.”
Larel’s eyes twitched at Leo’s question.
“Experience… … “You saw it?”
“okay. “It’s a little hard to say it with my own mouth.”
Leo smiled and opened his mouth.
“It’s also about going beyond your own limits.”
Leo’s red eyes look directly at Larel.
“Believe in me until the end.”
Turp-plop-
“It’s about finding courage and moving forward in the face of endless despair.”
chin-
“Pursuing the possibility in the face of the impossible.”
Leo, standing in front of Larel, spoke.
“I did it so much that I got sick of it. So it’s just that it’s not as welcome as it seems.”
“Do not be ridiculous. “It’s not as easy as you say!”
Larel shouted.
“Some people sacrifice themselves for thousands of years because they can’t do that! Don’t talk nonsense!
“Are you talking about the heroes of the Gaebyeok?”
“… … !”
Larel’s eyes opened wide.
Except for Seirun, Leo has never met any of the heroes of the Gaebyeok.
However, we know how they left lessons to the schools they each founded.
Go beyond your limits.
believe in yourself
Move forward.
Pursue possibility.
Later people thought that these lessons were the values pursued by the heroes of the Gaebyeok era.
In reality, that wasn’t the case.
Rumern ultimately thought that he had failed to overcome his limits.
Seilun did not believe in herself until the end and thought she had given up, and Azonia blamed herself for not being able to move forward with courage.
Damian eventually stopped believing in his own potential and put down the hammer.
The lessons of each hero academy were things they thought they could never achieve.
Unlike them, the heroes of later generations left words containing their earnest wishes to overcome limitations, believe in themselves until the end, move forward, and realize their potential.
‘Foolish guys.’
Leo sighed inwardly.
Leo had a vague idea of what the heroes of Gaebyeok were thinking.
The only hero that Leo met was Seirun.
However, when Seirun realized Leo’s identity, he could not even make eye contact.
I just lowered my head and shook my shoulders with a guilty heart.
The heroes of Gaebyeok saved the world.
‘But they didn’t think so themselves.’
Although they succeeded in defeating Erebos, they failed to subdue him.
‘Because the flame of disaster with immortal power burns endlessly.’
Seeing the black flames burning again and again, the heroes of Gaebyeok had no choice but to trap Erebos in their world.
And they destroyed Hero Records to prevent them from escaping.
The heroes of the Gaebyeok thought that they had failed in entrusting the fate of the world to future generations.
‘If you can’t overcome your limit, you can’t endure the loop that repeats itself for thousands of years. If I didn’t believe in myself, I would have collapsed in a hopeless situation. If we didn’t have courage, we wouldn’t have made the choice to sacrifice ourselves. And because I pursued possibilities, I was able to deliver hope to the future.’
After meeting Seilun.
Leo started to think that he wanted to meet the heroes of Gaebyeok as soon as possible.
‘What on earth did they see while attacking our hero record?’
There was nothing different about being a great hero.
Have you ever run into your limits once or twice?
What made you frustrated and unable to believe in yourself?
There have been countless times when I have been scared and have not believed in possibilities.
They’ve probably seen their pitiful appearance countless times.

Nevertheless, the great heroes saved the world.
‘It’s because I didn’t give up.’
The same goes for the heroes of Gaebyeok.
Even though they have accomplished something great, they are still pessimistic about themselves.
‘I’ll have to nag you when I get the chance.’
Leo clicked his tongue and spoke to Larel.
“So, what are you? How do you know the heroes of Gaebyeok and why are you testing their pursuits?”
“My name is Larel. “He is the great spirit of brilliance who governs light.”
“What if it’s the Great Spirit of Radiance?”
Leo tilted his head.
“The Dragon of Creation, the spirit that made a contract with Rodia?”
There have been countless Great Spirit contractors in the world.
However, no one has made a contract with the Great Spirit of Light since 3,000 years ago.
In fact, the spirit of light was special in history.
That specialness is the distant past.
This is a phrase that has been used since the time of the gods.
The Great Spirit of Light was eligible to contract only if he had the qualifications to lead the world for generations, not just those who had the qualifications as a spiritist.
Luminus, the great spirit of brilliance who made a contract with Lisinas, also thought that Lisinas was the one who would lead the world, so he chose her as his contractee.
To the extent that only such noble people are contracted, the Great Spirit of Light’s existence is only known in history.
It is very rare for it to actually appear.
Therefore, it was not impossible for the contractor to not exist for thousands of years.
but… … .
“I didn’t know that there wasn’t even a generational change?
“Because Rodia left me a favor.”
Larel’s eyes turned cold.
“Please find a hero to save the world.”
“Indeed, that’s why you created such illusions.”
I understood why such powerful illusions blocked my path.
“Was it a test?”
“… … “It used to be like that.”
Darkness fell over pale golden eyes that seemed to shine brightly at any moment.
Looking at Larelle like that, Leo crossed his arms.
“Then, having overcome all illusions, do I qualify as an ally?”
“… … Don’t you think that’s too arrogant? Leo Plov.”
Larel sneered.
“Welcome is only part of the test. “In addition to the welcome, there are many other tests remaining.”
“okay? “What is that test?”
“I never specifically said I was going to test you.”
Larel’s body floated.
Larelle crossed her legs and brushed her golden-white hair, narrowing her eyes.
“There is no comparison to you, the hero candidate of the past thousands of years… … Heroes so great that they cannot be compared to you have come to sign a contract with me. “With all preparations.”
-He’s a greater hero than Leo… … That doesn’t seem to make sense.
“What are you?”
-My name is Elsie.
“Dark attribute spirit?”
-yes. Nice to meet you, Larelle, the Spirit of Radiance.
Elsie slightly lifted the hem of her skirt and bowed slightly.
Looking at Elsie like that, Larelle narrowed her eyes.
“I hate dark spirits. “It’s needlessly gloomy.”
-Dark spirits also hate light spirits. It’s just needlessly bright. I like the brilliance of it though.
Larel thought Elsie was a spirit with a strange head.
The great spirit has the authority to rule over the lower spirits.
Even if they are not spirits of the same lineage, lower spirits cannot dare to rebel against the great spirits.
However, Elsie accepted Larelle’s words without hesitation.
The only thing that can do that is the same Great Spirit.
As far as Larel knows, the Great Spirit of Darkness is Ignit, the Spirit of the Abyss.
‘I’ve never heard of a generational change in the spirit of darkness.’
Larel lost interest in Elsie.
Elsie smiled slightly bitterly as she looked at Larelle who was looking away from her.
“It’s unfair to not let me take the test just because I came by unexpectedly. “I passed one of the tests, right?”
“It seems like you covet the title of my ally? Be greedy too. You must already be an ally of the three great phantom beasts, right? Or what? Do you have a desire to collect summons? “It’s a pity, but I gave up on this world a long time ago.”
Larel curled the corners of his mouth.
“If you want the title of ally of the Great Spirit of Light like other heroes, you can wait for the next Great Spirit of Light.”
Leo and Elsie looked at each other at Larelle’s sneer.
Leo burst out laughing, and Elsie covered her mouth and suppressed her laughter.
Larel’s eyes twitched at that reaction.
“What’s so funny?”
-Of course it won’t make you laugh, right? The Great Spirit of Light, who is nobler than any other spirit, pretends to be the ruler of this dark city and says, ‘I gave up on this world.’
Larel’s eyes became stained with anger at Elsie’s words.
“Do you even know how I feel? “How did I feel after wandering for thousands of years in search of an ally and seeing all the ugly things in the world?”
An unusual light emanated from Larelle’s body.
Looking at Larelle like that, Elsie looked slightly disappointed.
Elsie had a strong yearning for light.
The desire for light gained from being born as the darkest being and living in the darkest times.
Of course, he longed for the Great Spirit of Light who was full of light that he could neither have nor see.
An era of disaster. When Elsie opened her eyes, the Great Spirit of Light did not exist.
That is why I have continued to wish to meet the Great Spirit of Light of this era.
However, Larel was different from the Great Spirit of Light that Elsie thought of.
Because she was Elsie, the great spirit of darkness, she was able to feel the deep darkness that settled in Larel’s heart.
“Why did someone as great as the Great Spirit of Light give up the world?”
Larel shouted as he looked at Leo asking as if he couldn’t understand.
“I’ve been searching for thousands of years! Save my pledge! A hero who will save the world! But heroes are so absorbed in their own exploits that they don’t want to move forward!”
Larel shouted in frustration.
“I haven’t seen a proper hero in 3,000 years! These guys are not trying to step into the light on their own, but only have a desire to elevate themselves by becoming pledgers of their own existence! “You know how I feel, having seen people for 3,000 years who say that they can do anything out of self-conceit just because they got their name on the hero record!”
Larel’s voice trembled harshly as he expressed his anger.
As the great spirit of light, the world… … . He was shaken by the pitifulness of having to give up his precious pledge in the end.
“okay! There were some guys who challenged the world of Gaebyeok! but! None of them were spiritists who could make a contract with me! And even great and noble heroes ultimately end up failing again and again!”
If frustration continues, you become trapped in darkness.
“Those who would sign a contract with me are busy running around just seeing a part of the darkness I have seen!”
Larel shouted as if he was fed up.
“Not just heroes! Look at this country! The land where the dragon of Gaebyeok was born has become this ugly. Are these things worth saving?!”
The pain was even greater because I knew what kind of future awaits the world.
“Don’t talk nonsense! A human being who lives for a little over a hundred years at most! And the baby spirit! “Do you even know true despair?”
Larel, who let out his deep emotions, lowered his head.
Looking at Larelle like that, Leo and Elsie opened their mouths at the same time.
“Wouldn’t I know a lot better than you?”
– Wouldn’t he know much better than you?
“what?”
“I understand how you feel, but do you even know?”
Leo said indifferently.
“It’s the feeling of seeing a world being destroyed.”
“What… now?” … .”
“Eh, tsk tsk. Whether it was the spirit of the abyss that I had met before, I felt like I had seen all the ugly things in the world. And now even the Great Spirit of Light is doing this? “Why are things like this these days?”
-Leo, do you know how old-fashioned that thing is?
Elsie shook her head and said as she approached Larel.
-Would you like to take a look? The era I had to live in?
