469.
Leo looked up at the five people looking down at him from the sky and exhaled lightly.
“Are you a member of the Justice Guild?”
In response to Leo’s question, the wizard who seemed to be their leader adjusted his wand and held it.
“My name is Setian. He is a royal mage of the great Fetiman Kingdom. “A wizard who executes justice according to the king’s orders.”
“You have considerable skills to be considered a palace wizard of a border kingdom, right?”
“I don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Well, does it matter?”
In response to Setian’s flirtatious response, Leo pulled out his sword.
Sreung-!
“Just catch them and interrogate them and that’s it.”
At the same time as he said that, the large man standing next to Setian grabbed the huge Battle Ax behind his back in both hands and flew towards Leo.
“Hryaaab!”
With a fierce spirit, a red aura appeared on the Battle Ax.
Lil, who saw this, emptied the wine in his hand with a single shot and roughly threw the wine bottle to the side.
Clang-!
At the same time as the sound of a wine bottle breaking, the battle hammer summoned in Lil’s hand split the air.
Whoa!
Kwaang-!
“Hoo? “I heard that the 3rd year representative of Lumern is not a knight class.”
“That’s right, I’m a spiritist.”
“Heh, are you still planning on fighting me, a knight, in hand-to-hand combat?”
“He’s also good at hand-to-hand combat.”
“cheeky!”
The man, who seemed to be about three heads taller than Lil, gave off an even more powerful aura.
With that, the space became distorted.
Lil’s body seemed to stumble, but he was unable to overcome the man’s strength and flew away.
Quagga-ga-ga-ga-gang-!
A thick layer of sandy dust rose from the spot where the reel was thrown.
“After all, youth is good! A spiritist is thinking of fighting a knight! But it’s impossible!”
He laughed brightly and grinned at Leo.
“Now then, shall we take a look at the skills of the famous Leo Plov?”
Leo pointed behind the knight with his finger as he saw him showing his will to win.
“I don’t think it’s time to worry about me?”
“what?”
Quaaaang! Grumble-!
The knight who attacked with enthusiasm was swept away by a powerful explosion.
It was the flame that hit Leo and Lil a little while ago.
Lil had been controlling it with elemental magic, but now he has released his control.
Grumbling!
Leo protested, shaking off the flames that enveloped him.
“That’s too much.”
“I didn’t think Leo would be hit by that much fire.”
Lil, with a battle hammer slung over his shoulder, walked over with a calm expression.
Even Leo was caught up in Lil’s counterattack, but he didn’t seem to care at all.
‘Obviously, most fire attribute attacks won’t work on me.’
No matter what anyone says, Leo dealt with Gerdinger’s flame auror and made a contract with Phoenix.
But even so, it was not normal for Lil to counterattack without the slightest hesitation.
‘Do you have an innate fighting sense?’
We already know that Lil is a very talented person, but even Leo has never seen her fight in real life.
While Leo was looking at the reel with interest.
“This is amazing.”
The knight who had attacked stood up, smiling excitedly.
“You may still be a young girl, but you are a strong warrior!”
The knight with the Battle Ax on his shoulder grinned.
“My name is Joren! I belong to the Royal Knights of the Fetman Kingdom! “I have come to administer justice by order of His Majesty the King!”
He shouted excitedly, lifted the Battle X and started rotating it.
Hung Hung Hung!
“I hope it will be a bloody, glorious battle!”
Kwaaaaaa-!
The red aura created a huge storm.
It was a natural disaster created by overwhelming physical force.
Lil’s eyes twitched when he saw that.
He then summoned the wind spirit to cancel out the wind created by Joren.
Canel’s soldiers who had been affected by the typhoon he created were relieved.
“Viscount Eshman.”
Lil called out to Viscount Eshman in a heavy voice.
“yes.”

Eshman swallowed dry saliva.
He has experienced countless battlefields since he was young.
Auras, magic, and summoned animals are rampant on the battlefield.
As such, we have witnessed countless instances of one person with overwhelming abilities influencing the course of a war.
However, he has never personally witnessed a battle between those with transcendental abilities.
But I had a hunch after seeing the battle just now.
‘A fight that far exceeds the standards of ordinary people.’
With the Justice Guild’s intervention in the war between Canel and Pettyman, the situation became one-sided.
The Kingdom of Canel has been ravaged by those with overwhelming power.
‘But if you get caught up in this battle now… … I feel like I will suffer damage that is incomparable to what I have experienced so far… … !’
“Please lead the soldiers to retreat. Leo and I will take charge of this battlefield.”
“All right.”
Viscount Eshman quickly took command of the troops.
Lil felt relieved when he saw that.
‘I’m glad that Viscount Eshman is a capable commander.’
Leal, who came from a prestigious military family and had seen many commanders since he was young, knew that Eshman was a capable commander just from seeing him for a short period of time.
Joren, seeing the troops retreating in perfect order, snorted.
“Are you running away from the battlefield now? “They are a people who do not know honor.”
“You are the one who does not know what honor is.”
Lil remembered the voice.
A little while ago, Joren tried to kill the soldiers around him.
And Lil, who had experienced the battlefield, saw right away why Joren wanted to slaughter the soldiers.
It was not the intention to lead the future battle to an advantage.
Just plain overconfidence.
Massacre to make people fear and look up to them.
Lille has seen these types of people on the battlefield time and time again.
And Lil loathed and disliked these types of people the most.
Joren nodded as if he understood what Lil said.
“These are pure, student-like values that have not yet been tarnished. I miss you. “I had a time like that too.”
“I beg your pardon?”
“I was also a Lumern student.”
“Someone like you?”
Lil expressed his disbelief.
Looking at that reel, Joren’s mouth twisted.
“Yes, I didn’t graduate and was expelled from school in the 5th grade. You know, right? Professor Halind. “That guy expelled me.”
Joren aimed the battle x at Lille.
“You said Lil Luce, right? As you know, as a student representative, heroes are chosen. For the world. A hero is someone who overcomes trials and achieves great feats to realize justice and is chosen by God. He is literally God’s representative.”
“What does that have to do with the massacre?”
“Do you know the concept of karma?”
“Karma?”
Lil narrowed his eyes.
Leo twitched his eyes after hearing the story.
“Karma? Are you talking about karma? “How do you know that?”
“Oh, as expected, the youngest student council president. “I understand a concept that only appears in ancient literature.”
Karma.
That was before the era of disaster.
This is a concept that the gods spoke about during the Age of God.
Every time you harm a life, karma accumulates.
‘Did you say that among those who were called heroes during the Age of God, there were people who accumulated tremendous karma?’
Leo recalled Lisinas’ words.
‘Some gods used to say crazy things like killing one’s own people was also a feat. So there were many gods who praised war heroes to an excessive degree.’
Lisinas expressed his disgust.
‘In this era where God has disappeared, God is considered to be an absolute good being. In reality, that’s not the case.’
Leo sighed.
There are certainly good gods.
The Phoebe I met in Luna’s world was truly a god who cared for the world.
However, God is not an absolutely good being.
‘Rather, there were many races whose tendencies were close to chaos.’
The absolute one who has managed the world.
An omnipotent immortal.
That is the existence called God.
Among the gods who have managed the world for unimaginable eons, there were many who were hedonists who sought extreme stimulation.
The deeper the pleasure, the more it is distorted into strange forms.
So, in the Age of God, there were righteous heroes like the Guardian of the Sky, who was Aron’s teacher, and there were also people who were twisted by their own desires and were not like heroes at all.
And Leo has buried such people in times of disaster.
‘Because there was no standard for a hero in our time.’
The era of disaster is over.
As the feats of great heroes were recorded in hero records and passed down to future generations, the standard for heroes also changed to those who were devoted to the world.
but… … .
‘Still, those chosen by the gods are included in the hero record.’
Leo knows that there certainly are people like the twisted heroes of the Age of God.
However, he is only acting because he does not fit the hero image of the current era.
And Leo realized something after listening to Joren.
‘These guys are that kind of heroes.’
“Karma, I still don’t understand.”
As Lil frowned, Leo explained.
“Think simply. The gods can see how many lives have been taken. “The number of murders in the eyes of the gods is called karma.”
“That’s amazing. “Do you even know that?”
Setian, who was confronting Leo, was impressed.
“As expected, you rose to the status of a hero at a young age. Leo Plov. “Have you also received God’s teachings?”
Setian asked, his eyes shining.
Looking at Setian like that, Leo burst into laughter.
‘I see, I know what kind of guys the Justice Guild are.’
The outline was set.
Even at this moment, I do not feel any malice or murderous intent towards the people in front of me.
‘What they say about enforcing justice is true. Even when committing massacre, there is no hesitation, no emotion or guilt. No matter how crazy a homicidal maniac is, he is bound to show some emotions no matter how much pleasure he gets from killing people.’
But they don’t even have that.
‘What I feel from these kids is faith.’
Leo burst out laughing.
It’s also very twisted.
I’ve seen something similar to this with elves.
Blind praise for Luna.
Tribal pride.
But Justice Guild is more blatant than that.
I was convinced that it was God’s teaching.
A group that cannot be found in today’s era.
‘Some kind of religious group. It’s not just a religion, it’s a pseudo-religion.’
Leo burst out laughing.
“Do you think the massacre is some kind of God’s will?”
“It is not God’s will. “It’s a trial to become God’s representative.”
Setian said.
“They are the ‘experience points’ to turn our vessels into heroes.”
“crazy… … .”
“They are bastards.”
Leo, who was about to swear, looked to the side without realizing it.
Lil had his head down and his shoulders were shaking.
“What do you think of human life? “Trash.”
Gooooooooo!
An unusual spiritual power bloomed from Lil’s body.
Flash! Lil raised her head and her eyes flashed.
“You crazy psychopaths! “I’m going to blow their heads off!”
Leo stuck his tongue out at the sight of Lil, who was swearing so harshly that he was not normally considered to be a gentle and polite person.
‘It’s scary to see this normally calm child turn his or her eyes around.’
At that moment, even Leo flinched.
But now I know exactly what the Justice Guild is.
There is no need to hesitate.
Gooooo-
A grim look of death flowed from Leo’s eyes.
Seeing Leo like that, not only Setian but also the other Justice Guild trembled.
“You will never be a hero.”
“What a stupid thing! Are you saying you won’t follow God’s will?”
“god?”
Leo smiled coldly.
“Have you ever seen God in person?”
“what?”
“I know something about the people called gods, right? “If they saw the current situation, they would definitely say this, right?”
The expression disappeared from Leo’s face.
“You don’t even deserve to breathe, so slit your throats.”
