“A series of runaways in the hero dungeon hidden in the Forest of Monsters. “It seems that it was enough to presumptuously attract the dirty shadow guarding this place.”
Delean, who broke into the underground casino Shadow, curled the corners of her mouth.
“Come on, let’s go.”
Leading his men, he entered the labyrinth entrance and raised the corners of his mouth.
“The legacy of the dragon of Gaebyeok here… … “It’s mine.”
***
Dobela’s northern gate.
“Aaaahhh!”
“evacuation! “Everyone evacuate!”
The entire Dobela fell into panic.
The abnormal situation that suddenly occurred in the Forest of Monsters was like a disaster.
“Fight! Mercenaries! You were hired by us for money! Stop those monsters!”
The knights of Elehem stationed in Dobela used evil to urge the mercenaries.
“We are mercenaries! “There’s no way you can stop something like that!”
“that’s right! You guys are knights! “You always boasted that people like us couldn’t even reach your toes!”
“Stand at the forefront and show your skills! Then I will follow you!”
“profit! These rude things… … !”
Friction arose between the knights of Elehem and the mercenaries guarding the walls of Dobela.
Knights who stand back and force mercenaries to fight at the forefront, and mercenaries who rebel against such knights.
It was when the conflict between the two groups reached its peak.
thud-! thud-!
A heavy sound echoed above the castle walls.
“hmm. Even with such great walls, they are so afraid that they do not want to go to battle! “They are spineless.”
Everyone’s eyes turned to the giant tiger beast.
“Feeling fear is a completely natural instinct of living things. “If you don’t have any fear, that would be a fool’s errand.”
Ttogak- Ttogak-
A white-blonde girl holding a cane was walking next to the tiger beast.
“Heh, that’s right. So what about these? “Can I overcome my fear?”
Borman grinned and took the lead.
“Students of Lumern and Azonia… … !”
“But what can we do with just the two of us!”
The knights of Elehem looked distrustful.
But the mercenaries swallowed their dry saliva.
Chloe looked back at the mercenaries.
“You know that you have been to countless battlefields, right? “There is a higher chance of survival if you fight rather than run away.”
I couldn’t fight because of the fear of death that was right in front of my eyes.
The mercenaries knew well that it would be difficult to survive if such a large army of monsters invaded and scattered instead of uniting.
Chloe said, looking at the mercenaries with despairing expressions.
“So why don’t we fight? “We will take the lead.”
At those words, the mercenaries began to mutter.
“You’re taking the lead?”
“I’m a student at the Hero Academy!”
“You can leave the battlefield through the warp gate whenever you want, right?”
A distrustful voice.
At that time, a mercenary muttered among them.
“no. You can trust it. Being able to take the warp gate whenever you want means you can still escape this city. And yet I came here.”
He asked, looking at Chloe.
“why?”
Chloe smiled at that question.
“Because we are people who dream of being heroes.”
The mercenaries looked at Chloe blankly.
Thump-thump-thump-
Chloe stood on the castle wall with light steps.
Ugh-!
When I stretched out my hand, a staff was summoned from subspace.
An army of countless monsters could be seen rushing to the castle walls.
“Shall I help you?”
Borman, who came next to Chloe, crossed his arms and asked.
“It’s okay, this is what a wizard would do.”
Chloe began to chant a spell.
Borman saw this and began to strengthen his arms.
‘What is this absurd fluctuation of mana?’
While chanting a spell, Chloe looked at the large army of monsters.
‘It’s natural for people to feel afraid. ‘Because I’m scared too.’
Without stopping chanting, Chloe gave strength to her staff.
‘but… … I learned that the role of a wizard is to give courage to those fearful people.’
Chloe smiled as she thought of her friend who was far ahead of her.

‘Let’s move on.’
“Whoa.”
After finishing chanting, Chloe exhaled.
A powerful chill emanated from her body.
“Ice World.”
Blah blah blah blah-!
In an instant, the front of the castle wall was covered with ice.
The army of monsters that were bringing fear froze.
“amazing.”
Borman opened his mouth and muttered.
Chloe said, looking back at the mercenaries.
“We fight together.”
“Ooooooooooo!”
“let’s fight!”
The mercenaries, emboldened by Chloe’s magic, burned their fighting spirit.

At the eastern gate, Cal muttered to himself as he watched Duran charging at Cyclops.
‘It’s clear that you’re an unlucky bastard, Duran. That guy will definitely be a hero.’
Not just Duran.
Many of my close friends at school have already gone so far ahead that I can’t even see their backs.
‘Well, in a way, it’s natural.’
From the moment I was confirmed to be admitted to Lumern, I have never dreamed of being a hero.
‘It’s best to just survive.’
It’s still the same now.
Carl is a wizard.
Basically, you should cover Duran’s back.
But Carl also knows.
The fact that adding his own magical power would not be of much help to Duran.
‘You’ll be lucky if you don’t grab your ankle.’
Despite being a wizard, his firepower is less than that of Duran’s Auror.
‘This is why I can’t even dream of being a hero.’
Carl chuckled.
‘The goal was just to stay in Rumern as long as possible. If you’re lucky enough to become a supporter of a hero, it’s the best.’
It was a quick, quick-thinking choice.
That’s not wrong.
No, rather, it is also a way for the world.
‘But lately, I’ve had some more crazy goals.’
“Eight!”
From behind, Juen was attacking another Cyclops with sniping magic.
There was not just one Cyclops that appeared.
Aside from the Cyclops that Duran was slaughtering, another group of Cyclops were running rampant.
Jiiiiii! Flash! Kwaaang-!
The magic bullet containing Juen’s powerful magic power hit Cyclops.
With a huge explosion sound, Cyclops’ body stumbled as his body was pierced, spouting out blood.
However, Cyclops, who soon regained his balance, roared.
“Gwaoooooo!”
Aina, who was charging towards Cyclops, became a flash of golden light.
Flash! Puhwaaaaak-!
Aina’s sword pierced Cyclops’ flesh.
Wow!
“Ugh!”
But I couldn’t defeat it.
Cyclops’ enraged eyes turned to Aina, who had attacked him.
Cyclops’ eyes flashed and he swung his arm towards Aina.
‘late!’
It was time for Aina to put on Auror armor and prepare for impact.
Huh!
A strong wind blew.
Suddenly!
“Uuuuuuuu!”
Harbiden swung his spear and created a slash of wind, cutting off Cyclops’ arm.
Aina and Haviden’s eyes crossed in the air.
Harbiden stirred up the wind.
Aina quickly leapt forward, overcoming the wind created by Haviden, and charged towards Cyclops’ neck.
The golden aura soared.
“Haaaaaaaap!”
With a shout, the golden auror decapitated Cyclops.
“Keeoooooo!”
Cyclops grabbed his neck and screamed in pain.
Cyclops, whose head was blown off, started running wild.
Looking at that, Juen shouted as if he was fed up.
“Even though I cut his throat, he still goes on a rampage!”
“Of course, isn’t that a high-level magician for no reason? “It’s a monster that boasts a terrifyingly persistent vitality.”
Carl approached Juen, who was sniping.
“Well, you three seem like quite a few monsters.”
“Is it time for jokes?!”
“It’s a compliment. It breaks my heart to see juniors who are so amazing that they are scary. “I will become stronger in an instant and overtake my senior.”
Carl grinned.
“But I can help you as a senior for now.”
thud-!
Carl took out an iron box in front of Juen.
“What’s this?”
“It’s a special magic bullet made by this senior.”
Carl took out a magic bullet from the box.
“Juen, you have a huge amount of magical energy, but your magical power output is low compared to the amount of magical energy, so you lack an ‘overwhelming one-shot’ right now. That’s why it struggles against monsters with such overwhelming vitality. But originally, finishing is the magician’s role.”
“I know! However, although I am an orthodox wizard who plays in the rear, I am not the type of wizard who overwhelms the opponent with overwhelming firepower!”
“I know. So give this a try.”
Carl took out a bullet.
“Even if it is a magic bullet, there is a limit to increasing magic power… … .”
“This is a special magic bullet I made. The more magical power the user has, the more powerful it becomes. “My magic power is so low that it doesn’t have much of an effect, but Juen, your magic power will make a huge difference, right?”
Looking at his mentor smiling confidently, Juen took the magic bullet and attached it to a staff made for sniping magic.
‘Compatibility is perfect.’
Originally, Carl was making magic bullets for Juen, so there was no sense of strangeness.
However, the magical power and magic techniques swirling around from the bullet were areas that were difficult for even Juen, a top honors student in the first year of the Department of Magic, to understand.
Ji-ing-!
The magic bullet reacts to Juen’s magic power.
Juen aimed at Cyclops.
Aina and Habidden widened their distance from Cyclops due to the magical response felt from Juen.
Flash! Kwaang-!
A huge explosion occurred in Cyclops’ upper body along with an explosion as if a cannon was fired.
Patter-patter!
Pieces of Cyclops’ flesh and bones flowed out.
Cyclops collapsed, his upper body flying off.
thud-!
Juen gaped at the power that far exceeded expectations.
‘It’s impossible for me to chase after the heroes. But I still want to go somewhere where I can see them somehow.’
We can’t walk together.
I can’t follow behind.
Then, when great heroes face trials that are somehow visible.
I wanted to be of some help.
That was Carl’s new ‘goal’.
“joy.”
After slaughtering the first Cyclops and decapitating the second Cyclops, Duran snorted and curled the corners of his mouth.
“Pretty good, Carl Thomas.”
***
West gate.
Standing on the castle wall, Ar saw a huge Gigantes charging towards him with its tail gently wagging.
Ar stood on the castle wall and stepped firmly on the floor.
At the same time, it charged towards Gigantes.
“Haaaaaap!”
A golden aura spewed out from her body along with a powerful burst of energy.
Ar, who was using sign language, flashed his eyes and kicked Gigantes’ head.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Gigantes stumbled and fell to the floor.
Cuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
A huge earth-shaking sound rang out.
But that wasn’t the end.
Ar, whose entire body was covered in blue aura, kicked the air using the aura step and then charged to the ground.
Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!
Ar, who kicked Gigantes in the abdomen, growled fiercely.
Chelsea, who was watching the scene from the castle wall, looked dumbfounded.
“I heard about it, but it really is a monster cat.”
“Miss Chelsea, you can’t use words like that.”
When Chen Xia reprimanded him, Lewen, a fellow Azonia student, spoke.
“It’s a monster cat, right? “It’s not wrong, right?”
Chen Xia, who chuckled at the answer, looked toward the inside of the castle and said.
“I’ll be back for a moment.”
“huh? Where?”
As Chelsea tilted her head, Chen Xia smiled.
“Because I have something to do.”
Chen Xia, who said that, disappeared in an instant.
“Foolish hero candidates. “It’s like you’re preoccupied with the monsters and demons outside.”
“Hmph, I guess they’re kids. “It will collapse without being able to properly deal with the chaos occurring inside.”
“But what a sudden runaway. “Is my mission here over?”
People wearing black hoods talked.
Kwaduk-!
At that time, one person’s neck was broken.
dump-
The people in black hoods were shocked by the sudden situation and were about to draw their swords.
Kwasik-!
“Kwaaaak!”
A small, beautiful hand reached out from the darkness and twisted the wrist.
“Hero Hunters, everyone. A story related to that mission. “I want to hear more details?”
Chen Xia, who appeared from the darkness, smiled and asked.
“Is it a shadow?”
“It’s just one person!”
“You’ve lost your head!”
The moment when the hero hunters draw their respective weapons.
Kwaang-!
Another hero hunter’s head exploded and hit the wall.
“princess. “Aren’t you completely out of this business now?”
Kirin, who appeared from the darkness, tilted her head and asked.
Chen Xia answered calmly.
“I learned that there is no need to distinguish between what a hero should do and what a shadow should do.”
Chen Xia spewed out a water aura.
“If there is only one path to pursue. “He taught me that you have to do what you can.”
“It seems like the princess has become more scared than before.”
“Why?”
“Now the princess won’t hesitate anymore.”
Shadow Lord, Kirin said, loosening his fingers.
“I smelled it and it was a beast. Are there any among you who can do ‘sign language’? “It’s my last consideration.”
The expression disappeared from Kirin’s face.
“It would be best not to imitate the great traitor, which is unbecoming. “He did something like that.”
A thick life force gushed out from her body.
“I will kill you in the worst way I can.”
