491.
“Spirit King. “Why did you come to these ruins?”
The woman standing next to the Demon King Hell Kaiser bowed her head and asked.
Blood Queen. Elgenie, she was one of the legion commanders of Tartarus.
“This is the tomb of Kinesh, a corps commander who was called the Mirror Queen a long time ago.”
The person who answered Elgenier’s question was none other than Atkan, the Grand Duke of Jangson.
Elgenie glared at Artkan.
Even though he is a great demon who has lived for 5,000 years, Atkan is a confidant of the corps commander.
Elzenie’s status as a demon is high.
However, Elgenie felt a great threat from Atkan.
It’s not just El Jenny.
Currently, all corps commanders in Tartarus are wary of Atkan.
Even though they are the same corps commanders, not everyone is in an equal position.
Three corps commanders who have lived since the era of disaster.
The Demon King, the Monster Queen, and the Giant King were literally of different rank.
And Elgenie was a confidant of the monster queen Silatuna.
I didn’t have much to worry about until I rose to the position of corps commander as her confidant.
However, when Silatuna fell, his position within Tartarus began to shake.
In the first place, there was no corps commander who did not know that the King of Death, the current de facto ruler of Tartarus, did not like the later corps commanders.
‘It’s not surprising if an incompetent commander among the corps is kicked out at any time. If that happens, it is highly likely that he will take our place.’
If Artkan had not been overly talented, he might have already become a corps commander.
It was when Elgenie bit her lip.
“Mirror Queen Kinesh was subjugated by Luna in this place 5,000 years ago.”
The Demon King muttered calmly.
“You will need the grave dirt of the person you are grudge against.”
“I will visit the tomb of Nebula’s founder.”
“No, I will go. Lord Four Spirits.”
Elgenie stepped forward and knelt down.
“Please give me orders.”
“If you want, you can go. “Blood Queen.”
“Yes, I won’t disappoint you.”

‘What on earth was that just now?’
Leo, who cleaned up the blood stains, made a serious expression.
Just looking at the obvious pain and smell of blood, it was by no means an illusion or delusion.
‘Is it related to dreams?’
I thought about my dream a little while ago.
The content of the dream was something I could never forget.
‘Because it wasn’t just a dream.’
This is something that happened here 5,000 years ago.
The three great heroes who lost Aron and Dweno fought a decisive battle with Erebos here.
‘and… … ‘I was defeated.’
In the end, it was not a defeat.
Just as the great heroes failed to defeat Erebos.
Erebos also failed to annihilate the great heroes.
Rather, Erebos also suffered a great blow and retreated.
It was the same during Aron and Dweno.
Just because you’re immortal doesn’t mean you can’t take damage.
The wounds that Aron and Dweno inflicted on Erebos at the risk of their lives clearly paved the way for the remaining great heroes.
Five fierce battles on the final journey.
It was all an important process for the subjugation of Erebos.
Nevertheless, the reason why Leo considers the previous four battles to be defeats is because he lost his comrades.
Leo took a deep breath.
‘The content of the dream was from Luna’s perspective, not mine.’
Leo recalled the third battle.
Leo, who inherited Aron’s Auror and Dweno’s flame, played a role in blocking Erebos alone in the vanguard.
Leo closed his eyes and remembered 5,000 years ago.
‘We buried Dweno and headed east. and.’
It was time to rest before the third battle.
‘… … Let’s win by all means. Let’s win and survive.’
Luna said as if she was making a promise.
‘The three of us will make Aron and Dweno’s dreams come true. Let’s live diligently for both of us.’
When Aron closed his eyes, Luna cried and fainted.
Luna didn’t cry when Dweno left.
He killed his emotions and only burned his murderous intent toward Erebos.
‘Because just before leaving on the final expedition, our thoughts were different.’
Aron was afraid of his friends dying.
Dweno decided to make a sacrifice on behalf of others.

Lisinas vowed to save the world at any cost.
‘I was prepared to fail.’
Leo’s eyes sank.
When everyone is ready to make sacrifices.
Out of the five, Luna was the only one who thought that none of them would die.
Luna’s optimistic personality also played a role, but Luna probably couldn’t have imagined it before.
‘There is not even one person out of five.’
Although their races were different, they were family anyway.
I wouldn’t have been able to tolerate losing even one person.
‘Creating a world where children are happy, as Aron wanted… … Let’s create a world full of beauty, which is what Dweno was trying to do. so… … ‘Let’s be happy.’
These are the words Dweno left to Luna at his last moments.
I left a message to Lisinas that I believed, and to Kyle, I left a message to move on.
And he told Luna to be happy.
Luna and Dweno bickered the most at the party.
The races themselves were polar opposites, and their personalities and pursuits were also different.
Still, he was also my best drinking buddy.
‘It was like nephew and uncle.’
That’s why Dweno was truly worried about Luna, who couldn’t prepare to let anyone go.
Luna smiled, saying she wanted to be happy for herself and Lisinas.
That was Luna’s last sincere smile.
The third decisive battle begins.
The appearance of Erebos was different from before.
The gigantic evil of the beginning changed to the size of an ordinary human and appeared in front of the three people.
Mine’s appearance suddenly changed.
The three could tell who it was made to guard against.
‘He was most wary of Luna’s magic.’
At the time, Luna’s magic was at a lethal level even for the divine being Erebos.
Although it was impossible to kill Erebos, an immortal being, because he did not have pure mana characteristics, he could have fought against himself after being hit directly by Luna’s magic.
‘He must have been finished.’
So, the target was reduced by reducing the body size.
The battle began and Erebos persistently targeted Luna.
‘But Luna was a genius beyond Erebos’ expectations.’
Luna converted the magic spell of the end that threatened Erebos into anti-personnel magic during the battle.
As a result, Erebos succeeded in fatally wounding Luna, but he also suffered a serious blow from Luna’s magic.
Afterwards, Leo fought alone to defeat Erebos, who had returned to his original form.
‘I should have taken it down then.’
Leo’s face distorted as he remembered that time.
Leo could not stop Erebos alone.
Instead, he suffered fatal injuries.
When Lysinas fights Erebos alone on behalf of the two injured people.
Luna looked at Leo and smiled as if to reassure him.
It was laughter, I knew it right away when I saw his distorted face on the verge of crying.
He was about to leave and leave Luna in charge.
‘hey… … !’
‘Kyle… … .’
‘don’t do it.’
‘If one of them has to live… … ‘You know that it’s right for you to stay, carrying Aron and Dweno, right?’
‘Stop! ‘You damn bitch!’
‘This is the best. ‘If you were me, you would do the same.’
‘no… … ! ‘No!’
‘I’m sorry for leaving it to me.’
Leo, recalling an old incident, looked down at his hands.
‘Is this dream possibly related to spiritualism?’
I heard it from Lisinas.
It is said that there are times when a hero dreams of what he experienced.
‘There are times when what I experienced in a dream feels like reality.’
However, that does not mean that the wounds suffered in the dream appear in reality.
‘even… … Is it possible that Luna’s heroic spirit remains?’
Leo made a serious expression.
It happened 5,000 years ago.
Heroic spirits are beings who have regrets about the world.
And Leo didn’t think that his colleagues would leave behind any regrets in this world.
Even though they closed their eyes and could not see the world being saved, they believed.
I hope that the friends left behind will save the world.
And indeed, the world was saved.
With this, the greatest wish of my colleagues was resolved.
‘If the dream is spiritual magic… … Did Luna have any other worries?’
It was when Leo made a serious expression.
Knock-knock-
“Master Leo, are you awake?”
With a knock, the door was carefully opened, and Chen Xia showed her face.
“Woke up.”
“yes. Please eat.”
“okay.”
It was early in the morning when I woke up, but it was already morning.
“What do you plan to do today?”
Chen Xia asked as she stood next to Leo, who went into the room, and Leo said calmly.
“I need to find something.”
“Are you going to find it?”
“okay.”
“What are you looking for?”
Leo briefly answered Chen Xia’s question as if he was puzzled.
“tomb.”
***
After eating breakfast, Leo went straight into the depths of the forest.
“Leo. Miss Sia said she was looking for a grave. “Whose grave are you looking for?”
“Luna’s Tomb.”
“Ah, Luna… … yes?”
Eiran nodded as if he understood, but his eyes widened.
And then he opened his mouth.
“Lu, are you Luna?”
“that’s right. “The place where Luna died is around here.”
“Three, oh my!”
Eiran opened his eyes wide.
Leo put his index finger to Eiran’s lips as he looked at him in surprise.
Then Eiran hurriedly covered his mouth.
“What secret stories are so interesting?”
Chen Xia approached from afar and looked puzzled.
“It’s nothing.”
It’s impossible to tell things about Luna’s grave to Chen Xia, who still doesn’t know Leo’s identity.
So the three people started looking for a grave in the forest.
“Don’t you know the exact location?”
“I don’t know much about that.”
Leo calmly answered Chen Xia’s question.
‘There is a high probability that the shape of the tomb will not remain.’
When the sun rose in the sky.
Leo’s eyes twitched as he thought about Luna’s grave.
“Master Leo?”
It was when Chen Xia made a puzzled expression as she saw Leo’s sudden change in mood.
“Are they hero candidates? “Why are there milky-smelling babies here?”
A laugh was heard.
Slowly- Slowly-
With the sound of stepping on the bushes, a woman with red hair and red eyes appeared.
“Demon?”
Chen Xia frowned as she looked at the aura the woman was giving off.
“You are not an ordinary demon, human girl.”
The Queen of Blood, Elgenie, curled the corners of her mouth.
“I am Elzenie, the Blood Queen, commander of the great legions of Tartarus.”
Chen Xia and Eiran were startled by the sudden appearance of a big man.
“What is the commander doing here?”
Leo asked with an expressionless face.
“There’s no reason to tell you, but hehe. “Let me tell you that I came here according to the orders of the King of Death.”
Elgenie said with a sneer.
The reason for mentioning the name of the Death King was simple.
King of Death.
That name has the power to terrify others just by mentioning it.
It was to instill greater fear in the hero candidates who were already feeling extreme fear due to his presence.
The Blood Queen intended to kill the three people by instilling extreme fear.
“Death King.”
Leo curled the corners of his mouth.
“If he’s going to send a demon as big as an army commander all the way here… … “Did you come to Luna’s grave?”
“How did you do that?”
Elgenie’s complexion suddenly changed.
And that moment.
Leo’s eyes flashed.
The surroundings are shaken by the fearsome murderous force emanating from Leo’s body.
Chen Xia’s face turned white.
Chen Xia, who had made a contract with the water spirits, felt the spirits running away in fear.
Eiran’s lips were trembling.
Primal living.
It disappeared at some point.
“From the moment the demon came here, I had no intention of killing it gracefully.”
Leo was smiling.
“If the goal is Luna’s tomb, you should be more careful.”
‘What is this person?’
Elgenie’s face was colored with fear.
It wasn’t at the level of being creepy or scary.
As she was called the Queen of Blood, she was a corps commander with the ability to control blood.
And the moment our eyes met Leo’s red eyes.
Even she could feel the suffocating smell of blood.
‘The smell of demon blood.’
I was overwhelmed just by making eye contact.
Instinct was speaking.
The human in front of me has been slaughtering demons that I can’t even imagine.
The moment when Elgenie saw Leo looking at him with the eyes of a butcher, he instinctively decided to run away.
Buak-!
“Kyaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Leo was cutting Elgenie’s head with a sword.
