599.
“yes?”
Reina opened her eyes wide and checked the documents Leo had received.
“This is outside the imperial territory, right? Also, the Lessenteng region? “How does your father own this piece of land?”
“okay. Do you like this gift from your father?”
“It looks like you did quite a bit during your days as the head of the family. When did you start carrying so much in your back pocket? ”
Regas cupped his face at Reina’s words.
“You are saying something that will be misunderstood if anyone hears it. “This is the land your mother left behind.”
“Are you mom? She said, “Did your mother own this much land?!”
“Because your mother was the princess of Tungken, the Principality of the Sword that ruled the Lesenteng region.”
“Your mom was royal?”
Raina looked surprised at a fact she had no idea about.
“Kingdom of Tunkon? “Is this your first time hearing this name?”
Regas said as Leo tilted his head.
“I guess so. “Because it was a kingdom of heroes that was destroyed before your mother was even born.”
Hero Kingdom.
It refers to countries with territories the size of principalities founded by powerful heroes.
“My grandfather was invaded by Tartarus and destroyed when he was around Reese’s age.”
Leo gave a puzzled look at those words.
“Then isn’t there another force established in the Leshenteng region?”
“The force currently established in the Lesentung region is the Tyussen Knights, the most elite knights of Tungkon. “They were loyal to Tungken, and even after so many years, they are still searching for Tungken’s lineage.”
“Why did you keep your origin a secret from us, mom? And why didn’t she go back to Tungken when she was royal? “I think the Knights of Tyussen would have immediately crowned her mother as her king?”
Regas smiled bitterly as he looked at Reina, who had a puzzled expression on her face.
“Surely, if you had gone back to Tungken, your mother would have become king. However, Nyla felt great guilt for not being able to prevent the destruction of Tungken. “He refused to return to his hometown for the rest of his life, saying he could not rule over a land he could not protect.”
The previous mistress of Gerdinger.
Nyla Gerdinger also had a reputation as a noble knight.
“Can you pass on that land to me?”
“As a hero, I understand that your goal is the complete destruction of Erebos.”
It is a dream that everyone living in the world wishes for, but no one dares to say about it.
“Your mother looks a lot like your grandmother.”
Legas looked at his daughter and smiled wistfully.
“I used to say that those born with power must have a reason for being born with that power.”
“You definitely said that.”
Reina nodded.
“It was your grandmother’s belief that that power should be used to protect the weak and the good. Although there were those who laughed at her and considered it a sacrifice. I believe that the world has been victorious over great evil because of such noble people. And Leo.”
Regas’ red eyes turned to Leo.
“You are a person who has no hesitation in dedicating yourself to the world.”
Legas has been watching Leo’s movements since his entrance exam.
And when I saw Leo’s actions, I was very motivated to run.
It was not simply because he was a grandson with outstanding talent.
This is because I glimpsed the shadow of a true hero in Leo.
They pull potential competitors from the front and sometimes support them from behind.
Even though he could easily run ahead, he never ran alone.
We wait for those who fall behind and grow together.
I could tell by looking at it.
The complete destruction of Erebos is a ridiculous goal.
“I thought you were qualified to inherit your grandmother’s legacy.”
Regas was fiddling with the pendant around his neck.
Inside was a photo of his long-lost wife.
“Power comes in many forms. “An individual’s military power is power, but the power he commands is also a huge force that cannot be ignored.”
That was also the reason why Raina wanted to pass down a large territory to her son.
That territory will definitely become a base for Leo to grow his power.
There are limits to individual power.
When there is a force that can support Leo.
Leo thought that he would finally be able to spread his wings as a hero.
‘Because the path Leo is about to walk will never be smooth.’
“If Tincon’s legacy were used to achieve complete peace in the world. Your grandmother will be happier than anyone else. That’s why she’s leaving the land to you.”
Leo nodded at those words.
“father.”
“Are you at least touched by this father’s heart?”
“You’re not planning on making a fuss about this, are you? Since this is an inheritance left by her mother, you must carefully calculate what you have to give from Gerdinger separately and give it to Leo. “Okay?”
“… … .”
Regas asked, looking at Reina who was clearly taking care of everything she needed.
“Who on earth do you resemble?”
“Mom.”

Celia, who was waiting in front of the Elder’s Corridor, hurriedly asked Leo as soon as he came out.
“What happened?”

Leo said in response to Celia’s urgent question.
“For now, we just finished inheriting the territory in the northern part of the empire.”
“what? “Most of our family’s territory in the northern part of the empire is barren mountain ranges!”
“I decided to receive a portion of the land that my mother was supposed to inherit when I graduated.”
“Nonsense! “Even if I inherit all of my aunt’s inheritance right now, it won’t be enough!”
Celia was furious.
“Do you think you’re angrier than me?”
“This is a matter of treatment! “Did your aunt stay still?”
“miss. calm down.”
“Ah, lady.”
Niel and Martina calmed Celia down.
“I stayed still. “I was in an uproar because he said he was going to marry me and Chelsea.”
“Yessss!?”
“What about Chelsea? Llewallin’s Chelsea?!”
Martina and Niel looked shocked.
“What are you talking about? Why are you marrying Chelsea Llewallin? “I absolutely cannot tolerate this!”
Celia got angry with a red face.
The other Leo knights also gaped in surprise.
Leo said that.
“Why are you so excited? “It’s not like I really want to do that.”
“Yeah, right? okay! There’s no way you’re marrying Chelsea Llewallin!”
Celia calmed her startled heart.
“so?”
“Grandfather stepped forward and intervened.”
“how?”
“First of all, instead of following the opinion of the Elder Council, you decided to hand over the Leshenteng region to me.”
“Lessenteng region? That’s not imperial territory, right? It’s a place that has absolutely nothing to do with our family? “Is there a separate region called Resenteng within the empire?”
“I know there isn’t one.”
Niel shook his head.
“It’s the northern part of the empire. “They said that the land was my grandmother’s land.”
Leo told Celia the story he heard from Regas.
Celia looked surprised when she heard that story.
“what? Then you… … “So you’re saying you’ve become the rightful owner of Toncon?”
“yes.”
“So you’re saying he’s a king?”
“Is that how it works?”
“The real you.”
Even in a situation that was equivalent to inheriting an entire country, he seemed unimpressed.
‘The bowl is really big.’
“I plan to go to Leshenteng in two days.”
“Then I want to go too. It’s my grandmother’s land. curious.”
Celia’s eyes sparkled.
Leo chuckled at that and looked down at his hands.
‘He is the king.’
I thought of a friend who was called the King of Wisdom.
‘I think I’m becoming more and more like that guy.’
***
Three people approached Reese, who had subdued the eastern rebels.
“That’s great. Reese, I can’t believe you suppressed the rebellion so quickly and without any casualties. “He is indeed my rival.”
Ulta spread her arms and made a fuss.
Behind Ulta, Torua clicked his tongue.
“If it were my magic, I could have solved it more neatly and simply.”
“I can’t ask you, the guests, to do something like this. Moreover, diplomatic problems may arise.”
Jamua quenched his appetite while looking at Reese, who was smiling.
“At times like this, I miss my free student days.”
“huh. that’s right. Even if an accident occurred, the school took care of everything.”
Torua nodded as if he sympathized.
“What kind of magic idiot and muscle nerd would do such a shameless thing? “As an honor student, you are a problem child that I cannot understand at all.”
“You were the worst?”
Torua tapped Ulta’s head with her cane.
Jamua, who was clicking his tongue as he watched the two grumbling, saw Reese’s serious expression and asked.
“what’s the matter? What’s going on?”
“No, I heard something that bothered me a little.”
“What story?”
“While I was suppressing my enemies, many people saw my flames and shouted that they were the devil’s flames.”
“Devil’s flame?”
Jamua narrowed her eyebrows.
“okay. And he was afraid, as if he had seen my spark before.”
Gerdinger’s flame is a crimson flame imbued with the power of the Phoenix.
Ordinary flame aura or magical flame.
It is clearly different from phantom beasts and spirit flames.
Anyone who sees it can see that it is Gerdinger’s spark.
“The flame of your family is the flame of the Phoenix.”
“that’s right. And in Rodren, Gerdinger is the only one who wields the power of the Phoenix.”
“Aren’t they just mistaken?”
“That would be nice.”
They were clearly afraid of Gerdinger’s flame.
The rebels witnessed Jerdinger’s flame several times, something that an ordinary person would rarely see once in a lifetime.
‘I’m worried.’
“Or Reese. “I created a new interrogation spell this time. Would you like me to help you?”
Torua asked, sitting next to Reese.
Looking at Torua like that, Jamua clicked his tongue.
“Have you already forgotten that outsiders are not allowed to intervene in this case?”
“Tsk tsk. Jamua. “I’ve said it before, but you lack so much love.”
“What do you mean by that out of the blue?”
“Do you really not know that Torua’s desire to help Reese is love?”
“What nonsense is that?”
Ulta spread her arms as she saw Torua frowning.
“There is nothing to hide. Torua. Because I saw it. “I saw you coming out of Reece’s dorm room window in the early morning of graduation day!”
“what? “You said it wasn’t like that, but you ended up being like that?”
Jamua, who heard Ulta’s words, smiled slyly.
Torua smiled as she looked at the two.
“huh. But that fact is a secret between me and Risman.”
“So it’s no longer just a secret between you two? Because me and Ulta found out.”
“no. “Is this going to be our secret forever?”
“how?”
“Just kill the person who knows the secret.”
As soon as they heard that, Ulta and Jamua ran away without even looking back.
Torua chased after those two with a spirit that made them feel like they were going to kill them.
Looking at the back, Reese sighed.
“Somehow it doesn’t change even after I graduate.”
***
“Did you miss it?”
Torua clicked his tongue.
“I don’t know about Ulta, but Jamua, that foul-mouthed guy needs to be dealt with somehow.”
Torua stroked her chin and was lost in thought.
‘It’s clear that Jamua’s brain is trained with muscles, so wouldn’t it be a problem if I cast a little stronger mental manipulation magic?’
Thinking seriously, he looked up when he realized that someone was blocking his path as he was heading back towards Reese.
The man wearing a black hood was holding a sword.
‘Rebel?’
It was when Torua made a puzzled expression.
“Torua Jan?”
“Do you know me?”
“I heard that you are a candidate for a famous hero of our time.”
The man’s mouth drew an arc beneath the hood.
“I have to take your magic power.”
Grumble-!
Bright red flames shot out from the man’s sword.
Torua’s eyes opened wide.
It’s an all too familiar flame.
The spark that I saw from the moment I entered Lumern until the moment I graduated.
“Jerdinger’s flame?”
