439.
Turp-plop-
Leo and Aron were walking down the circular staircase that led to the underground hidden deep within the fairy king’s abode.
“indeed.”
Leo muttered as he walked down the long passage.
“It’s definitely being suppressed.”
From the moment I entered these stairs, I felt the powerful power of the Fairy King.
“It’s not just a barrier, is it?”
Aron muttered softly.
Among the three great phantom beasts, the Phoenix symbolizes weapons such as swords and spears, and Pegasus symbolizes horseback riding, while the Fairy symbolizes a shield, that is, a barrier.
“It’s literally cut off from the outside world.”
‘Beyond physical concepts, they are also dimensionally separated.’
It was safe to say that the stairs I was currently walking down were a single space.
Fairy magic is a powerful magic that is classified as a unique magic class in itself, and the Fairy King is also a wizard who has mastered that powerful magic.
This is an area that the Fairy King has separated from the dimension for 5,000 years.
‘Even so, it’s a completely different structure from the fairy magic I know?’
It was different from the fairy magic that Leo knew.
“The structure of the magic spell is Luna’s style?”
“Ah, it definitely resembles Luna’s magic.”
Aron was impressed by Leo’s words. Silod, who was flying, answered.
-It’s a barrier created based on the fairy magic techniques Luna studied.
“As expected, it’s Luna.”
“Because he was evaluated as the greatest genius in the history of magic.”
As Aron exclaimed, Leo chuckled.
I went down the stairs for such a long time.
In terms of actual time, half a day has passed.
However, Silod explained that the flow of time in this area is different from outside.
Eventually, Leo, Aron, and Silod arrived in front of a huge stone gate.
Leo’s eyes narrowed and Aron made a sharp expression.
I came to know that there was a sculpture of Erebos beyond this door.
But when I encountered it like this, my body naturally reacted.
-I want to open it.
Kugugugugugugung-
As soon as Silod finished speaking, the stone door opened with a heavy sound.
Leo and Aron entered the stone chamber.
Inside was a black object shaped like a human being the size of an adult man.
It looked like a lump of burnt charcoal, or like a lump of melted and congealed iron.
What was clear was that it was black, darker than the night sky, and that the power of Erebos could be faintly felt.
The shape was different and the energy it gave off was weak.
However, Leo and Aron, who fought against Erebos, could clearly see what this was.
“Erebos.”
Hearing Aron’s muttering, Leo approached Erebos.
Literally, the fire was completely extinguished.
However, even so, it is a disastrous entity that once brought destruction to the world.
Moreover, the sculpture of Erebos is 3,000 years old.
There was a time when it burned again.
‘You said Silod tried to get rid of this for the past 5,000 years, but to no avail, right?’
Silod was not the only one who neglected the pieces of Erebos like this.
For a long time, he had been trying to use the power of the Fairy King to destroy the pieces of Erebos.
But none of the methods worked.
Even if the flame disappears, Erebos is Erebos.
It was the primordial disaster that even the gods feared.
Even Leo miraculously succeeded in subduing it, but failed to completely destroy it.
It was best to just split it into six pieces.
‘I can’t touch it too hastily. If I accidentally touch it and end up provoking it, that’s a problem too.’
Leo’s power is like a natural enemy to Erebos.
There was no way to know what the result would be if Leo’s power was added to the sealed Erebos.
‘So suppressing it and protecting it from Tartarus is the best thing for now?’
The good news is that the piece of Erebos shows no signs of waking up.
‘Even the Necromancer King doesn’t know how to wake up the pieces. Whatever it is, it’s probably best to leave it like this for now.’
While Leo was looking at the sculpture of Erebos.
Aron sniffed and moved his nose.
“It definitely smells different from the Erebos I know.”
-What do you think?
“Basically, the unpleasant odor is the same. “It got a little more severe.”
-It got worse?
“huh. “It’s like a pile of embers.”
Leo said, looking at Aron who was frowning.

“Are there any signs of it burning again?”
Aron was lost in thought at Leo’s question.
“I don’t feel that way at all.”
Leo nodded in response to Aron’s question.
“Then that’s a relief. “For now, you don’t have to worry about this piece.”
Leo looked at Silod.
“Silod, please give me a little more.”
-If it’s your job to protect this place, don’t worry.
Silod smiled confidently and pounded his chest.
-I was a companion of great heroes?
“It’s reliable.”
Leo burst out laughing when he saw Silod like that.
-Aron?
Silod looked puzzled when he saw Aron staring at him silently.
-Why are you looking at me like that?
“No, I think Silroad has changed a lot.”
-5000 years have passed.
Silod smiled like an adult.
Aron looked down at the palm of his hand.
“if… … “If I hadn’t died 5,000 years ago.”
Aron raised his head and asked.
“Could I have escaped my cowardice?”
“what do you mean?”
“Could I have become a truly courageous person? Just like it is being told to people now. “Could he have become a real hero?”
-I can’t imagine that this is Aron in the story. Right, Leo?
“I know.”
Aron nodded while listening to the conversation between Leo and Silod.
“good. Then I will become a true hero.”
“what?”
“That’s my new goal.”
“Is that necessary? You still… … .”
“no. “I will be different from before.”
Aron said, clenching his fists enthusiastically.
Leo, who was about to say something while looking at Aron, chuckled.
“Cheer up.”
“huh!”
***
A small pond in a dense forest.
“Whoop!” Phew! it’s awesome! Whoop!”
“Heeeeeeeeeek!”
Aron looked frightened as he looked at Ar hanging on his feet.
Looking at that, Leo made an expression that said yes.
“What about the real hero?”
Chelsea, who had been looking dumbfounded at Leo’s muttering, asked with a puzzled look on her face.
“huh? What are you talking about?”
“I’m talking to myself.”
Leo answered sharply and pulled Ar’s back.
“Stop it, class won’t be possible if you do that.”
At those words, Ar came to his senses and let Aron go.
Then Aron quickly went behind Chelsea.
Chelsea opened her mouth and looked up at Aron.
“I thought my seizure symptoms were getting a little better.”
“But the black rabbit! “Look at Aron!”
Ar looked at Aron hiding behind Chelsea.
“iced coffee! cool! the best! Hydrated Aron is the best! Ah! It’s so dazzling! “I can’t even look at you properly!”
Ar covers his eyes and gets excited while looking at Ar-on.
“Damn! “I can feel the glory of a brave man!”
“Don’t you need glasses?”
Leo looked at Aron hiding behind Chelsea, who was smaller than him, and sighed as he saw Aron interpreting things as he pleased.
“Oppa Leo. “I have a question.”
“ask.”
“Aron is very different from the Aron in the stories I’ve seen. Was this your original personality?”
Leo nodded, looking at Chelsea who asked with a puzzled look on her face.
“that’s right.”
“oh my god.”
Who would have guessed?
The fact that the brave Aron, who is the symbol of courage to modern people, is actually a coward.
‘It’s definitely scary because the eyes taste good.’
Chelsea muttered, looking into Are’s eyes.
“Then why are you hiding behind me?”
“Do you feel relieved because something is familiar to you?”
Chelsea looked like she didn’t know what Aron’s answer was.
Meanwhile, Aron approached the true Ar.
“Do you want to try sign language?”
In response to that question, Ar activated his auror.
Aron nodded while looking at Ar who signed.
“Okay, then try using howling.”
Ar took a breath at those words.
Chelsea saw that and manipulated the atmosphere with magic.
-Khuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
Chelsea felt her whole body tingle at the huge roar.
‘That’s amazing.’
Chelsea swallowed dry saliva.
As the second-year representative of Azonia, his dignity was clearly felt.
Aron, who heard Ar’s roar, crossed his arms.
“You said there are many different types of howling in this day and age, right?”
“yes!”
Aron’s howl terrifies enemies and gives courage to allies.
However, in today’s era, there are various effects depending on the user.
Such as temporarily improving physical abilities or confusing enemies.
“So you’re saying that beastmen with those characteristics are mostly wizards or summoners?”
“That’s right!”
Aron, who had been thinking about Ar’s powerful answer, took a deep breath.
-Wow!
A powerful roar, incomparable to Ar, rang out.
Overwhelmed by the sight, Are and Chelsea lost strength and fell into their seats.
“Wow, it’s amazing.”
“Awesome!”
Chelsea trembled and Ar trembled with excitement.
While the two were admiring Aron’s majesty, Leo narrowed his eyes and looked down at his hands.
My body felt lighter than before.
“Did you add a buff effect to the howling?”
“huh.”
“what?”
“Now that I think about it, my body… … ?”
Aron answered Leo’s question calmly, and Ar and Chelsea widened their eyes.
“I tried mixing the current era’s usage of Howling with the mana flow when wizards use buff magic.”
The howling used by the beastmen of the current era and the howling used by Aron have different Auror usage methods.
Howling, which can be said to be the original, is also Aron’s unique technique.
Later beastmen studied the howling, improved it, and learned it.
In the process, it changed significantly from the original, and other effects occurred that Aron could not use.
Aron listened to Ar’s vocalizations and the characteristics of the howling of modern beasts and immediately created an effect that had never been seen before.
“Well, is that going to happen?”
“Is it okay to do it?”
“As expected, Aron!”
Aron laughed as he looked at Chelsea, who was astonished, and Aron’s eyes sparkled, and Aron was busy praising her.
“But, Ar, I don’t sense any special power from you that allows you to use sign language?”
“I did it just once, by chance… … .”
“okay? Then, wouldn’t it appear if you practice howling vocalization? “Howling has a special training method.”
“Oooh! “Something!”
Ar’s eyes sparkled.
Aron went behind Ar and put his hand in his armpit and raised it.
And then I headed to the pond with Ar, who looked like he didn’t know what was going on.
Ar’s face turned slightly white.
“Seo, really?”
“huh. Just fall into the water.”
Whick! with a plop!
“Wunyaaaaa?!”
Aron shouted as he watched Ar struggling, screaming like a cat.
“Scream as loud as you can in the water!”
“Bubble bubble bubbling!”
Although Ar hated water, he somehow stuck his face in the water and roared.
“Phew!”
When Ar, who had run out of breath, tried to breathe, Aron spoke.
“Go right in!”
“Nyehehe?”
“This is a training method that Luna helped me strengthen my howling. Although it is painful, the effect is certain. “For a split second, take a deep breath as you can.”
“yes! Hueup!”
Ar put his face back into the water.
Bubble bubble!
“Kuhek!”
Tup!
“Eek!?”
Ar’s eyes widened as he saw Aron holding his head and pushing him into the water.
“Soo, you couldn’t breathe…” … “Kuhek!”
“If you want to live, breathe!”
“Pogrrrrrrrr!”
Splash splash!
“… … “Isn’t that just waterboarding?”
“I know.”
“Aron, are you trying to drown that stupid cat because you are afraid of it?”
Considering the way he was trembling with fear while looking at Are earlier, it was quite possible.
“I guess not so? “It looks like he really doesn’t want to do it.”
Unlike the cruel hands, Aron was pushing him into the water with a heartbroken face.
Even though he doesn’t want to do it, he seems to be trying for Are.
‘He’s doing the same thing Luna did to him.’
At that time, Aron was still a teenager.
As a result of training, Aron was able to perfectly handle howling.
I received great help from Luna’s training methods.
‘Of course, after that, Aron began to distrust Luna.’
“Do you think it will work?”
Leo rested his chin in response to Chelsea’s confused question.
“It will be effective because it is training given by the hero himself.”
