437.
A week has already passed since the retreat began.
As expected from a country estate on the border, the mountains of the Plov family had many rugged terrains.
Far below, on a cliff with rough valley water flowing.
The students swallowed their dry saliva as they looked at the faintly visible valley water.
Then he looked back and asked.
“So? “What are we doing today?”
Illyana asked with a slightly bored expression.
Vanir, a rabbit beast and a graduate of Azonia, spoke calmly.
“What are you doing?”
She gestured towards the cliff with an expressionless face.
“run.”
At those words, the faces of all the students being trained by her, including Illyana, turned white.
“You said today was a simple courage training?!”
Azonia second-year student Lewen, a fox beast, shouted urgently.
“This is training for your courage.”
Vanir said calmly.
“Courage is essential in fighting. As you all know, these are not just the virtues of beastmen, but also essential for all hero candidates.”
At those words, Illyana raised her hand.
“I wonder what that has to do with jumping off a cliff barefoot.”
“Where do you think true courage comes from?”
“It comes from the heart.”
Vanir shook his head at Illyana’s answer.
“no.”
Seeing Vanir shaking his head resolutely, Seilun’s student, Tyrena, raised her hand this time.
“I think it comes from thorough preparation.”
“Wrong.”
Eventually, the students expressed their thoughts, but Vanir only shook his head resolutely.
Lewen said with a frown.
“Senior Vanir, where does true courage come from?”
“True courage comes from fear.”
“yes?”
“When you overcome fear and muster courage. Finally, you become truly courageous. The same goes for training to jump off a cliff with your bare body.”
Vanir approached Rwen.
“Creatures have an instinctive fear of jumping from high places. “This training is about overcoming that primal fear.”
“If you use such an ignorant method, shouldn’t you just ask other prisoners to do it? Why am I the only student who is a prisoner?”
Llewen gave a sharp reaction.
Vanir spoke calmly at those words.
“Other Azonia students are so ignorant that they will definitely jump off the cliff without a second thought when told that it is true courage.”
“Surely fools do.”
“But you are different.”
Vanir said, looking at the faces of his students, including Llewen.
“They are not fools who will jump because they hear a story like this.”
“Heh, as expected, you have a keen eye for perspective since you are the student council president. “I’m definitely the type of person who understands the situation calmly.”
Vanir said, looking at Illyana who answered with a proud expression.
“You all are the type of people who are prone to pointless nonsense. As a result, these people will continue to feel fear as they question this nonsensical training. “To put it bluntly, they have a timid and timid personality.”
The students’ faces were grimly distorted by the harsh words that struck their hearts.
“In that sense, this inefficient, unreasonable and crazy training is perfect for you.”
“If you know that it’s inefficient, nonsensical, and crazy training, don’t do it!”
Lewen shouted angrily.
sudden-!
Vanir lifted Llewen up with an expressionless face and threw her into the cliff.
“Aaaahhh!”
The fox beast’s desperate scream rang out.
Vanir, who was looking calmly at Rwen falling down the cliff, said.
“Next, jump. practice.”
But despite those words, no student jumped.
Vanir captured Illyana.
“Wait! You could really die! A more rational training than this… … !”
“It’s okay, you won’t die.”
“How can you guarantee it!”
“If you die at this level, blame your weakness.”
“Well, such irresponsible…” … ! Kyaaaaaaaaaah?!”
After Vanir’s cold words, Illyana’s desperate screams echoed throughout the mountain.
“Can’t you hear Illyana’s screams?”
When Nella asked with a bitter smile, Chloe stood up and shook her head.
“No, I can’t hear you.”
“I guess I heard wrong.”

“I can almost hear auditory hallucinations.”
Chloe gritted her teeth.
“Because I’m being treated like this.”
“Ha ha ha ha ha! Chloe Müller. “For a magic major, you have good tenacity.”
Jamua relaxed his shoulders and approached.
But the gentle smile was filled with cruelty.
Jamua’s students’ task was extremely simple.
It was a defense training where you had to withstand Jamua’s attacks without counterattacking.
The problem was Jamua’s merciless attack.
As if to prove that he was the ‘strongest’ among last year’s graduates in terms of pure strength.
Even though Jamua did not use auras or weapons, he unfailingly unleashed power comparable to that of any large-scale magic just through hand-to-hand combat.
‘If anything, there is a way to defend yourself through magic or summoning… … Senior Jamua’s attack is more difficult because it is pure physical force.’
As an orthodox wizard, Chloe also prepared a plan to prepare for defenseless situations.
However, it is only a precautionary measure in preparation for colleagues or counterattacks around you.
When the purpose was strictly for defense, countermeasures were insufficient.
No matter what anyone says, Chloe was an attack-specialized wizard.
Then Driana stepped forward.
“Hoo?”
Jamua curled the corners of her mouth.
“Are you going to stop me alone?”
“yes. “Before I was a blacksmith, I was a shield for our allies.”
“As expected, he’s the representative of Damian’s grade.”
Driana stood in front of Jamua with a more serious voice than usual.
That face was extremely serious.
Chloe, seeing that, stood up.
“I will help.”
Cheeeeeeeek-!
And while blocking Jamua’s attack, she tore the hem of her skirt, which was tattered and impeding her movements, above her knees.
Looking at Chloe dressed in comfortable clothes, Jamua grinned as if she liked it.
“He’s tough?”
Driana stared at Chloe’s legs.
“Yeah, I guess ice cubes would be good too.”
“what?”
“Your legs are a work of art. Did you say Chloe? “Doesn’t she want to be a model for a work of art?”
“Nude models are prohibited.”
“Don’t worry about that. Semi nude. No need for a telegraph. “All you need is the lower body.”
“It’s an absolute refusal.”
Chloe refused in a cold voice.
“Can you feel the emotions of the summoned beast now?”
Runia’s eyes fluttered as she saw Ulta, last year’s graduate from Rumern, asking with her arms outstretched.
It’s not just Runia.
Next to her, Eliza also had a similar expression.
“no.”
“Uh huh.”
Ulta looked up at the sky and lamented.
Pegasus’s ally, Ulta, has only two students.
It was just Runia and Eliza.
“How come you don’t know! I’ve said this many times, but you two have a higher affinity with Hwansu than me! “So why can’t I do this simple thing?”
“How do I read the mind of someone else’s pet that isn’t even mine?”
“I agree with what Runia El Lundua said, Senior Ulta.”
Ulta sighed deeply at Eliza’s words.
“Fiora, is this what you want?”
Ulta handed a cookie topped with cream to Fiora, who was sitting on the back of her hand.
Beep-!
Fiora was happy, flapping her wings when she saw the snacks Ulta handed her.
What Ulta was giving Runia and Eliza to do was training to read the minds of summoned beasts.
Reading the mind of one’s summoned beast is a very natural act for a summoner.
That’s why Ulta brought in Fiora, Leo’s sworn ally.
“Wait! “I also gave you those snacks earlier, right?”
Runia protested as if it was unfair.
Runia, who was originally selected as Fiora’s ally, lost her position as ally to Leo.
However, even after that, he did not hold back on his affection for Fiora.
As such, he was confident that he knew Fiora well.
“The cream didn’t rise, cream.”
Beep-beep-
“Kuh-!”
When Fiora responded to Ulta’s reprimand, Runia looked angry.
“Do you understand now? What I mean is that you lack love! In that sense, kneel down and close your eyes. From now on, let’s take a deep look at what love is.”
Ulta shouted majestically and struck! and left.
Runia and Eliza knelt down and closed their eyes.
I was on my knees and meditating like this all week.
“Eliza Hergin.”
“What is it, Runia El Lund?”
“What on earth is this love he’s talking about?”
“Don’t ask me.”
For the two girls to understand, the thoughts of Ulta, who had a reputation as an eccentric before being a genius summoner, were one level beyond.

“It’s Leo Plov.”
“It’s food!”
“Get in line! “Get in line!”
Dinner time.
All students who attended the retreat lined up with bright expressions.
Before we knew it, a large kitchen had been built in the middle of the camp.
A week had already passed and the hero candidates were adapting well to this situation.
We are now able to respond without much trouble to the attacks that continue every night.
The situation was pushed to the limit, but now there is some leeway in retreat life.
“I endured this time again today!”
“Leo! “What’s on the menu today?”
said Leo, who was unanimously appointed director of meals for all schools.
“BBQ.”
“BBQ!”
“Oooh!”
Cheers erupted from everywhere.
Leo looked at this with a pitiful expression.
“Are they good like that?”
“Because this is my only pleasure.”
Chelsea, who was helping Leo, sighed.
Just like that, the cooking was completed and distribution was completed.
It was a time when close friends gathered in small groups and had a good time.
“Oppa Leo! “Come here!”
Chelsea, who was sitting next to Carl, waved at Leo.
“No, I’ll eat somewhere else.”
After answering that, Leo picked up the plate and headed to a place slightly outside the campground.
There, Aron was sitting with his back under a large tree, staring blankly at the sunset.
“eat dinner.”
“thank you.”
Aron smiled as he looked at Leo handing him the meal and accepted it.
And he spoke without taking his eyes off the sunset sky.
“pretty. “I understand why Lisinas risked everything to restore this landscape.”
Aron took a bite of meat and mumbled.
“Kyle, did you want to get this scenery back too?”
“well. “I didn’t think much of it.”
Leo smiled and sat down next to Aron.
“Kyle.”
“why.”
“If you hadn’t saved me, I would have been killed by Erebus then, right?”
“… … .
Leo remained silent in response to Aron’s question.
Aron said calmly while looking at Leo.
“are you okay. “Because I know everything.”
“what?”
“Right before I went into battle, I knew I was going to die there.”
“You knew?”
“huh. “You know that your extra senses sometimes tell you things you don’t want to know, right?”
Aron said calmly while looking at Leo, who was surprised.
“I was prepared to die. And now that I know that the world has been saved, I’m okay. “You don’t have to feel guilty about my death.”
Aron smiled at Leo.
From the moment his future friend brought him to the future.
Aron knew that Leo felt sorry for him.
Aron hoped that Leo would not have such feelings.
“Because you and I would have done the same. So, I don’t know how long I can stay in the current era. Don’t worry about that. “Even if I had to go back, I was ready to accept death.”
‘The guy who made up his mind… … Did he have those deathly eyes?
Just as Aron was recognizing Leo’s feelings, Leo was also recognizing Aron’s feelings.
“Then get some sleep.”
Aron had not slept even a wink since he came to this world.
Because it’s scary.
When I open my eyes, I wonder if Erebos will be right in front of me.
“When you’re so alert, I can’t help but worry.”
“… … huh.”
Aron laughed at Leo’s words.
Then I slightly closed my eyes and went to sleep.
At that time, Ar approached Leo.
“Black rabbit! Instructor Akan… … !”
“You’re sleeping.”
Eiran, who came with us, opened his eyes wide.
“Instructor Akan is sleeping! Whoop-! Whoop-?!”
The moment when Ar gets excited while watching Aron sleeping.
Driana covered Ar’s mouth with one hand and strangled him with her other arm.
“If I hit him in the solar plexus and knock him out, he won’t cause a scene, right?”
As Runia clenched her fists and muttered lowly, Ar struggled wildly.
At that time, Chelsea, who followed Karl, squatted down in front of Aron and gave a small exclamation.
“But you really look a lot like the brave Aron. “I would believe it if they said it was the same person.”
“That’s right.”
Cal squatted down next to him and muttered slyly.
***
Grumbling!
The moment I came to my senses, what I saw before my eyes was a black flame.
‘Ah, it’s a dream.’
Aron realized that this situation was a dream.
Naturally, my gaze turned to the broken beloved sword ‘Brave’ held in my hand.
The life of the sword named Courage has ended.
His lifespan came to an end in the battle with Erebos.
‘no… … .’
Aron knows.
The reason the sword broke was not because its durability was exhausted.
However, it is not because Dweno, who created the sword, lacks skill.
‘It’s because I couldn’t swing it to the end.’
For the sake of his colleagues, he set out to block Erebos alone.
However, Aron gave up the fight during the battle with Erebos.
Because I know I’m going to die.
‘Dweno is behind… … Luna… … Lisinas… … Kyle… … ‘They’ll take care of it.’
I was resigned.
‘Because Kyle will never give up.’
Until the moment of his death, he leaned on his friend.
‘I don’t want to go back.’
I’m afraid of dying.
‘I haven’t even found what I want to do for myself yet.’
The courage once broken in the face of the fear of death made the brave man hesitate.
Kugugugugugugugung-!
At that moment, the world shook.
***
Kugugugugugugung-!
“earthquake?”
Chelsea opened her eyes wide and looked down at the ground.
A small tremor was felt beneath the ground.
Flash!
At that moment, Aron’s eyes brightened.
Woe!
In an instant, a change occurred in Aron’s body.
‘Kuhhh?’
When Karl saw that, he let out a sigh.
Eiran was also shocked.
The moment when Chelsea was distracted by a sudden earthquake.
Aron suddenly signed.
The moon has not risen yet.
No, even though the moon has risen, today is not a full moon.
What if Aron uses sign language in that situation?
“Suddenly there was an earthquake… … !”
“Che, Miss Chelsea! “You might fall!”
“Hey, Chelsea. “Get your balance!”
Eyran and Karl blocked Chelsea’s view.
“what? It’s just a small vibration, so why fall? And why did you block my path? “Are you hiding something from me?”
Chelsea slowly opened her eyes.
“Hide it!”
Carl shook his head slyly.
“Khuuuuuuu-!”
That moment.
Ar removed Driana’s hand and roared.
Chelsea covered her ears and frowned at the sudden roar.
“Why is it suddenly roaring!”
“Kyaaaaaaaaaa! Wow! greatness! Howling practice.”
“… … “You guys are suspicious.”
When Chelsea casts even more doubts.
Aron, who had a dazed expression on his face, came to his senses.
Kal and Eiran gaped as they looked at Aron.
Leo spoke quietly to Aron, who was at a loss.
“Try sign language.”
Aron, who understood the situation, canceled sign language.
But it was too late.
“Sign Language?”
Chelsea’s eyes widened when she saw Aron sign language.
“Uh, how do you sign language? “It’s not even a full moon, but that cat is the only one who can use sign language, right?”
Looking at Chelsea in surprise, Aar crossed his arms.
“Heh! “It seems that Instructor Akan signed in response to this body’s howling!”
Are puffing out his chest in pride.
Looking at Ar like that, Runia and Driana quickly said.
“Did you finally succeed?”
“That’s amazing. “As expected, she is my exclusive model.”
“Who is your exclusive model?”
The three people talked eloquently to overcome the situation.
Chelsea said ‘Aha!’ He made an expression like this.
“So, Artune was able to hydrate other beastmen by howling, right?”
Carl and Eiran added, looking at Chelsea, who had an expression of understanding now.
“Great! Miss Ar!”
“Oh, as expected, he is the representative of Azonia.”
Carl, who was struggling to somehow diffuse the situation, cupped his face when he saw Chelsea staring at him with amusement.
I understood because we were close friends.
The little devil who acts obediently and cute only in front of Leo has already figured out the situation.
“Do you think you people are idiots? Do you think I’ll fall for such clumsy acting?!”
Chelsea slowly opened her eyes.
Then he approached Aron, who was embarrassed, and spoke.
“Instructor Akan! Please be honest! “Are you the brave Aron?!”
