583.
Karl swallowed his dry saliva as he looked at the four people in front of him.
‘If you look at it like this, pressure is no joke, right?’
There were five seats in front of me.
And everyone was sitting there except for one seat.
‘The comet wizard Seilun, the great warrior Azonia, and the indomitable Damian.’
The great heroes who saved the world again during the second coming of disaster 3,000 years ago.
‘It’s no joke when you keep your mouth shut.’
Cal’s gaze, which had been looking at Runia, Eiran, and Driana for a moment, remained blank for a moment.
It will definitely be Rumern’s empty seat.
Carl finally looked at the woman sitting in the middle.
‘The dragon of the beginning, Rhodia.’
If there had been a king of wisdom in the world, Lysinas, during the time of disaster.
At the time of the second coming of the disaster, there was Rhodia.
Her feat was not simply about rallying heroes to defeat the Fragments of Erebos.
‘The first conqueror.’
It was Rodia who first discovered the world of heroes and conquered it.
‘Because there is such a feat, it must have been called Gaebyeok itself.’
Carl narrowed his neck at Rodia’s gaze that seemed to see through everything.
“Lumerne’s student council president, Clary Jessian.”
“Did you call me, Rodia, the Dragon of Creation?”
As Carl lowered his head, Rodia opened his mouth.
“As you know, Rumern, the Twilight Knight, is currently missing.”
Rodia’s eyes narrowed.
“Do you know anything about him?”
Carl hesitated about what to answer to that question.
Although he couldn’t be sure, Carl had an idea of where Lumern was headed.
‘Where God is.’
However, that fact cannot be conveyed directly to Rodia.
The existence of God became known only 3,000 years later.
To mention it is to twist history.
‘Maybe it’s the heroes of Gaebyeok. It’s an important matter that no single student council president should know.’
It’s funny that a person who is as good as the student council president of Lumern Academy is called just a student council president, but compared to the existence in front of us, there is nothing strange about being called that way.
“I do not know.”
“okay? “Is that really disappointing?”
Rodia’s eyes became blurry for a moment, but then became clear again.
‘At this point, no one may know about the existence of God in the first place.’
The heroes of Gaebyeok left countless legends.
But among them, the story of heroism that people like the most is by far Rumern’s.
Not just humans.
Rumern’s story is loved regardless of race.
The reason was extremely simple.
After the Second Coming of the Calamity is over.
Among the heroes of Gaebyeok, Rumern is the one who adventured the world the most.
Rodia studied hero records in Dragonia and left the results to future generations.
Seirun reinterpreted the magic of the stars and redefined it as the unique magic of the elves, while Damian focused his efforts on collecting and restoring the sacred energy left behind by Dweno.
In Azonia’s case, like Aron, she worked hard to obtain the ability to transform into a beast when she wanted.
‘Breath of the Brave’ was derived based on the knowledge passed down in the process.
But not Rumern.
If each person had something to pass on to future generations in their respective fields.
Rumern had nothing to pass down to future generations.
‘Because Lumern did not inherit any power in Kyle’s world.’
Since there is nothing to inherit, there is nothing to leave behind.
‘Leo said that Rumeren wanted to be like him. Maybe Mr. Rumern was blaming himself.’
I can’t be like the hero from the beginning.
A person who cannot replace the hero of the beginning.
He may have thought it was all his fault for not being able to defeat Erebos.
In later generations, people would have seen Rumern’s adventure as a journey to help people.
But in reality, it would have been a journey to find the key to enter Kyle’s world.
A struggle to inherit Kyle’s power.
‘In the meantime, I guess I discovered God.’
Carl clenched his fist.
‘The Rumeren I know is a person like that.’
People living in the age of heroes have at least one favorite hero.
Carl was like that too.
My favorite hero since I was young was none other than Rumern.
A hero who started from the bottom and saved the world on his own.
‘Because I thought it was similar to me.’

It was inevitable that he would become a wonderful object of admiration for a commoner boy.
There was a time when I looked up everything I could about Lumern, whether it was folk stories or history books.
Cal smiled bitterly, remembering himself from those days.
‘I’ve had quite a bit of talent since I was young. ‘It’s not something that’s just noticeable, but it’s a moderate talent.’
‘When I was young, there was a time when I was so brave that I thought I would become a hero.’
However, when I met someone by chance, I gave up that thought.
‘Our unlucky prince.’
Moira is a small kingdom.
As a result, people are evaluated based solely on ability, regardless of status.
‘It’s our kingdom’s greatest strength.’
Thanks to this, Karl, who was a commoner but came from an alchemist family and showed magical talent from a young age, was given the opportunity to attend Moira National School.
There I happened to see Duran, who was visiting the school.
‘Well, he probably doesn’t even remember.’
Carl, who briefly recalled his first meeting with Duran, shook his head.
I realized this when I saw Duran.
What is the possibility of becoming a hero?
‘After that, I couldn’t like Lumern as much as before, without knowing why. ‘I’ve been too precocious since I was young.’
From then on, I stopped saying that I wanted to be a hero.
At some point, I stopped saying I wanted to become like Rumern.
‘Still, I foolishly hung on to entering Rumern.’
At least a little hero.
I wanted to become someone who could reach Lumern.
So, I decided to become a supporter and entered Lumern.
Carl, who was thinking about the past for a moment, shook off his thoughts.
‘The important thing now is to find Lumern.’
It is certain that Lumern is somewhere in the academy.
And there is also Shin, Lian, somewhere here.
“Lumerne has an unnecessarily strong sense of responsibility. “He said it wasn’t his fault.”
Rodia suddenly sighed softly.
Carl laughed bitterly at Rodia’s words.
“yes. So it’s not like he’s going to disappear so suddenly.”
“huh. that’s right. “This is not the kind of guy who will disappear like this.”
“It must be somewhere in the academy.”
“huh. “That’s why I asked.”
“yes?”
“… … .”
“I thought you guys would know.”
After saying that, Rodia’s eyes became blurred and clear again.
When Karl saw that, he felt strange.
Rodia continued to look at the sword with eyes that seemed to see through everything.
‘No, it’s strange to begin with.’
The heroes of Gaebyeok have greater trust and bond with each other than anyone else.
In terms of trust and bonding, they are no less than great heroes.
When Carl answered Rodia’s question a little while ago that he didn’t know.
Rodia openly expressed his disappointment.
‘There’s no way the student council president knows something that even the heroes of Gaebyeok don’t know.’
Moreover, the reaction after that was also strange.
‘And now. You definitely said it was you, right? ‘I’m not alone.’
This could also refer to all academy students.
But I couldn’t shake the feeling of discomfort.
Carl, whose thoughts had reached that point, swallowed his dry saliva.
“Rhodia… … no way… … ?”
For a moment, Rodia put his index finger to his mouth.
Carl was astonished when he saw that.
‘I know.’
This is the world of heroes.
That Rhodia herself is a fake.
‘And that other heroes of Gaebyeok like me are the raiders! Everyone knows! What on earth? How do you stay sane!’
In the hero’s world, if the conqueror reveals that he or she is the conqueror or is discovered, the hero’s world raid will fail.
‘The moment a character in the world of heroes realizes that he or she is fake, he or she will not be able to accept the situation and then his or her mind will collapse, right?’
But Rhodia was fine.
‘Are you not subject to restrictions? No, considering you told me to be quiet in the first place, I guess that’s not the case?’
Carl looked embarrassed.
But then I took a deep breath.
“Lord Seilun, Lord Azonia, Lord Damian.”
“… … ?”
“I have something to say only to Rodia.”
At those words, the three people looked at Rodia.
Rodia nodded and the three people left.
Everyone was like, ‘What are you going to do?’ He gave Carl a puzzled look.
After a while, Rodia, who remained in the room, smiled.
“You’re a smart kid, aren’t you?”
“Because I’m quick to notice.”
“huh. Thank you for letting the other kids go. I’m in a bit of a critical state. “Can you tell me what I want quickly?”
Carl answered that question.
“Lumerne went to find God somewhere in the Academy.”
‘He doesn’t have the qualities to be a hero, but he’s a smart kid.’
Ichae looked young in Rodia’s eyes as he looked at the sword.
He found out his condition with small clues.
‘It wasn’t that there was a lack of other attackers.’
The clue that Rodia gave was really trivial.
If he intervened further than that, even Rodia could not guarantee his mental state.
‘How can you guess this far without missing such a small thing? ‘He has very good observation skills.’
The moment I thought about it.
[An error occurred in the system. Restart the record system… … .]
Clang-
The moment a message appears.
Rhodia destroyed his own mind.
The destroyed spirit returned immediately.
‘People inside the world of heroes were seeing this.’
The ones who can recognize the attacker within the world of heroes are the key characters in the world of heroes.
The reason why the attack fails the moment they recognize the presence of the attacker is simple.
This is because characters in the world of heroes who have suffered mental breakdown attack those around them indiscriminately.
Even Rhodia does not know the exact mechanism.
It was simply discovered through countless experiments.
Key characters in the World of Heroes are no longer able to progress through the strategy, but of course the strategy also fails.
‘If an error occurs, the world will collapse. However, if the person who caused the error is dealt with, the world will proceed as is without collapsing.’
This is also a fact I discovered while studying Hero Records for a long time.
‘First of all, I am not the master of this world.’
Lumern, which existed until yesterday, suddenly disappeared.
And the moment when I realized that Seilun, Azonia, and Damian were the attackers, not me.
The three desperately searched for Lumern.
‘If the target is me, there is no reason to be that desperate.’
The moment I thought about that, a message appeared.
And upon seeing that, Rodia destroyed his own ego without hesitation.
This is because, in the worst case scenario, he decided that even if he died in this world, the world would continue.
But for some reason, Rodia did not die.
‘The moment the message appears, it feels like a new self is being created. The self I killed is after this world ends, so it is me who will embody the next world.’
Rodia broke into a cold sweat as he inferred why he was maintaining his ego.
By chance, he dug into a gap in the system and forcibly maintained the world with his memories, but this was by no means an easy task.
What Rodia is doing now is the equivalent of killing himself every time an error occurs.
‘I don’t know how long my mind can hold on.’
The shock that destroyed his mind remained intact.
‘I need to conquer this world as quickly as possible before I run into trouble… … huh?’
Rodia gave a puzzled look.
Before I knew it, the raider was looking out the window.
And that’s because his face turned white.
“What’s happen?”
“Black flame… … .”
“what?”
“Can’t you see? A flame of disaster?!”
“what?”
Rodia’s eyes widened as she looked at the direction the knife pointed.
[An error occurred in the system. Record system… … .]
Clang-
The aftermath of destroying my mind left me feeling dazed.
Rodia bit her lip tightly, barely able to keep her mind from disappearing.
“I can’t see anything?”
Karl had a stern expression.
‘Is it only visible to the raiders!’
