537.
“Would it be okay?”
Eiran asked with a worried face.
At those words, Runia said, cupping her face.
“What’s going to happen?”
“but… … “If Leo-sama and Berkia-sama clash.”
“Things went awry, but I don’t think this situation is all bad.”
When Berkia first said she would scold Leo, she was taken aback by the suddenness of the situation.
However, looking at it objectively, it is an ideal situation for Leo and Berkia to meet.
“Miss Runia is right. “Our purpose was to make Leo and Berkia meet.”
Chen Xia also nodded.
“that’s right. and… … “I wonder if I should worry about Leo when these two people meet.”
Runia looked a little shaken.
“Yes.”
Chen Xia also nodded in agreement.
Berkia said she was scolding Leo.
But is that possible?
I’m not worried simply because Leo is Berkia’s teacher.
“I’m sure Leo won’t leave Berkia alone.”
Runia knows too.
How does Berkia feel about Kyle?
The young Berkia I met in the world of Dweno clearly regarded Kyle, the hero of the beginning, as a father.
Leo’s feelings toward Berkia would not have been much different.
Things like being cocky.
Something like being rebellious.
Although he seemed to disapprove of his disciple.
Leo trusted Berkia more than anyone else.
That’s why Leo’s face was dark the entire time he was tracking Berkia.
and.
‘What will you do when you meet Berkia?’
‘What should I do? I’ll have to beat him up.’
When Runia asked cautiously, Leo answered calmly.
‘Shouldn’t we be more worried about Berkia?’
Runia sighed.
At that time, Eiran, who was standing still, looked around the room where Berkia was staying.
And muttered.
“I don’t know why, but we look alike.”
“huh? what?”
Runia asked with a puzzled expression at the sudden remark.
“What I saw here, in Dweno’s world… … Doesn’t it resemble the atmosphere of Leo’s house in the past?”
At those words, Runia looked around.
And he nodded.
“They definitely look alike.”
Overall, it feels desolate with no traces of life.
There are only the necessary items and everything else is neatly organized.
It felt like the home of someone who would never return.
Looking at that, Runia squatted down on the dining table chair with her legs together and looked at the scenery of the house.
I remembered Driana’s words when she saw Kyle’s house.
‘Maybe I just didn’t attach my heart to this space.’
It was a miserable sight, as if the owner of the house would never return.
At the time, I thought it was just a hero’s solemn attitude.
But until now, I couldn’t imagine what Leo was thinking.
Runia slowly turned her head and looked at the table full of empty plates.
It is the only place in the house where warmth is felt.
“Perhaps the reason Berkia-sama left the house so messy even while she was being scolded so much… … “Isn’t it because they wanted to give Leo a reason to come back?”
“ah… … .”
Eiran let out an exclamation as he remembered Berkia making a lot of mess in the house.
Chen Xia let out a deep sigh while listening to the two people’s conversation and said as he put away the dishes.
“Let’s get this sorted out first.”
“Okay.”
“I feel burdened by my role.”
It was when three people were trying to clean up a mountain of dishes.
Ugh-!
“huh?”
Chen Xia’s eyes widened at the sound of resonance coming from her arms.
I put down the bowl and took out an object that made a resonant sound.
“ah?”
Chen Xia’s eyes widened as she saw Bihar’s dagger emitting a resonant sound.

‘Something happened.’
Even though it was almost dawn, Runia and Eiran showed no sign of returning.
When Leo saw that, he realized something had happened and sighed deeply.
‘Things are getting bigger.’
It’s not that I don’t trust Runia, Eiran, and Chen Xia.
The three are hero candidates of their choice.
I had faith that no matter what trials I faced, I would overcome them.
‘But now the situation is serious.’
Leo, who was sitting by the window, looked out the window.
‘There is definitely Berkia in this city. And this city is twisted.’
Even in the midst of a snowstorm, people on the streets are smiling.
I could see all the noble things floating on this cold earth.
But their eyes are twitching with desire.
Those eyes don’t look like an elf.
In essence, elves are a noble race.
No matter how bad her personality was, Luna was always noble on the battlefield.
That’s not all.
Leo has never seen a race as noble as the elves when they put everything on the line.
‘But not all elves are noble.’
The reason elves are noble is because they have no shame in proving their worth.
But these people here are different.
They consider themselves noble, but the only thing that sustains them is their elf bloodline and the magic of the stars.
They may think it’s special, but in Leo’s eyes, it’s not.
‘This city is strange.’
It may have a flashy appearance, but it was visible in Leo’s eyes.
The deep darkness behind this city.
I don’t know exactly what it was, but it smelled like my nose was rotting.
That’s probably why Berkia is in this city.
But the city is surprisingly calm.
The mentality prevalent in this city is clearly the type that Berkia hates the most.
It wouldn’t be surprising if Berkia, who became a dead man burning with hatred, immediately turned this city into a sea of fire.
‘I should say I’m glad.’
Leo sighed deeply.
I didn’t feel particularly fortunate because I was worried about this city.
‘Because hatred burns you.’
In the end, the one who is ultimately devoured by the endlessly burning hatred is oneself.
Berkia, who screams and struggles, will eventually lose herself.
I should say that I am fortunate.
When I was alive, I died before that happened.
Otherwise, Berkia would have literally become a disaster itself.
But now that you’re dead?
‘It will become increasingly irreversible.’
That’s why Leo was relieved.
Because the current Berkia has not crossed the line.
I wasn’t worried about the residents living in this land.
Or rather, if this land of purebloods joined hands with Tartarus.
Leo will burn this Eldon without hesitation.
And it will erase its traces from this earth.
‘Because I am not Lisinas.’
Leo knew.
It’s not just Leo.
Lisinas, Luna, Aron, and Dweno.
Everyone who risked their lives for that era knew that the saved world was not such an ideal world.
Nevertheless, he did not hesitate to sacrifice his life.
Because I know it’s not just dark and twisted.
and also.
‘Because everyone followed Lisinas’ will.’
King of Wisdom.
A title given to her by the gods in praise.
‘The gods did not name Lisinas king simply because he was wise and wise.’
In 5,000 years of history, Risinas was unique.
The person who received the title of king in Hero Records.
He who is called king by the gods.
And to the gods, the title of king is more special than anything else.
The inhabitants of the earth have a huge territory and call the people who live on that land kings and follow them.
But the king the gods speak of transcends that concept.
‘It literally means the king or master of the world.’
Later people thought that Risinas was called the King of Wisdom because he was the wisest in history, but this was not the case.
The King of Wisdom meant the owner of the wise world recognized by the gods.
‘He’s probably the only one. The one called king by the gods.’
The reason why the gods evaluated Lisinas so highly is very simple.
‘It’s because I carried everything.’
It did not end with simply launching a counterattack to defeat Erebos.
He carried the world on his back and went towards the light.
One who has done evil.
A person who commits a sin.
Even those who betrayed the world.
Lisinas forgave and accepted.
gave them a chance.
As a black dragon, he had the duty to punish evildoers, but Lishinas accepted them.
Of course, it was Leo who judged those who kicked that opportunity.
Leo said.
Traitors cannot be tolerated.
But Lisinas shook his head.
That too is part of the world we must save.
And what brings all of that together into one place is salvation.
A benevolent and noble master of the world who shone brighter than anyone else.
‘That’s why I respect you, Lisinas. So I can’t even be like you.’
Leo’s eyes sank coldly.
If it were Lishinas, he would have been able to unite the countless forces that exist on earth.
But unfortunately, Leo is not Lisinas.
Rotten flesh is cut out with one’s own hands.
efficiently.
‘Just like I did 5,000 years ago.’
Therefore, Leo now knows why Berkia is leaving this city alone.
‘I didn’t teach everything. but… … .’
In the end, what Berkia saw and learned was himself.
Berkia knows.
Kyle… … And Bihar.
What did you do in the dark?
Berkia tried to chase after Leo and Vihar when they went into the dark.
But Leo and Vihar always pushed Berkia away.
This is not the place for you.
Although I couldn’t step in, I definitely saw Berkia.
How Leo and Vihar move.
‘I’m making a judgment.’
Someone worth living for.
The current Berkia is definitely a monster.
He is not a monster who has lost his mind.
That’s why Leo’s heart was heavy.
Berkia will gradually lose its good.
The moment you think like that.
Squeak-!
The door opened.
Leo’s eyes twitched.
The extra senses are still developing.
I didn’t feel any presence.
That’s right.
Dalkak-
Berkia came in through the door and closed it.
And then he looked at Leo with dry eyes.
Leo came down from the window at that gaze.
Leo and Berkia’s eyes were intertwined in the air.
Leo closed his eyes tightly.
Reunion after 5,000 years.
But in my experience, it probably won’t last that long.
Leo is reunited after ten years.
For Berkia, it will be a reunion after decades.
Even so, the Berkia in front of him was not the Berkia that Leo knew.
There is no life in the eyes.
It’s not because they’re undead.
Berkia’s eyes, which had never lost their light, had suddenly become dry.
The eyes that had lost their light squeezed Leo’s heart.
I already knew that Berkia was undead.
I knew right away that it would look like this.
but… … .
Seeing it in person feels different.
Leo looked at the ceiling.
‘f*ck you world.’
I knew it.
It’s a dirty world.
Knowing that, I saved the world.
Because of that, there was no regret or resentment.
Even if it is someone else’s belief.
I followed that belief because it had value.
But for this moment.
I regretted it.
Saving the world.
I resented it.
At that moment, my weak self was content with being alone and closed my eyes.
Leo’s red eyes turned to Berkia.
Berkia, who was staring intently into those eyes, muttered.
“You have very cheeky eyes.”
Very sad eyes.
Eyes filled with extreme sadness.
Eyes that seem to understand everything.
For an instant, Berkia’s face distorted.
I felt an instinctive repulsion from that gaze that seemed to see through everything about me.
‘Not anymore.’
Who can see themselves through those eyes?
therefore.
“Don’t look at me like that.”
