618.
Reina opened her eyes.
I quickly looked around.
Raina quickly assessed the situation in a familiar building.
‘My room in the Plov Estate Mansion.’
Reina checked the clock while lying down and realized that it was morning.
My whole body is in pain.
At the time of the attack.
It was a reaction from moving the body forcibly.
‘If you see that your body hasn’t recovered yet… … ‘Not a day has passed.’
After checking her condition, Raina realized that there was no one in the room and got up.
at that time.
smart-
The door was carefully opened with a knock.
“Ma, ma’am.”
The person who opened the door and came in was Anna, the head maid of the Plov family’s main house.
Raina said as she looked at Anna, who had come to her senses and looked like she was scared and almost about to cry.
“Anna. “Where are the uninvited guests?”
“Well, in the master’s room… … .”
At those words, Reina got up and headed to Leo’s room.
When we arrived at Leo’s room, what we saw was the hero slayer leisurely reading a book in his room.
“Are you here? Reina Gerdinger. “No, should I call you Reina Plov now?”
Reina said, looking at the Hero Slayer who had a relaxed expression without taking his eyes off the book.
“What are you doing?”
“I’m trying to find out. “What kind of person is Leo Plov?”
Hero Slayer raised his head, looked at Reina, and smiled.
“Before that, shall we first say a full statement? My name is Gioria Iner. “He is what you call a hero slayer.”
“Iner?”
Raina’s eyes twitched.
It was a powerful family of heroes who settled in the center of the continent a long time ago.
Countless heroes gathered under Iner’s name.
A place that was literally the best hero family.
However, it was a family that disappeared at some point.
“okay. “He is the owner of a family that disappeared due to shadows.”
He said in a tone that he missed Zorua wearing the hood.
“Although he is lacking, he is a hero who also has the nickname All Master. Of course, it’s just past glory.”
“Ol Master?”
It’s a tinnitus I’ve never heard of.
If a name has been left in history, it is impossible not to know it.
Raina, who had a puzzled expression on her face, immediately remembered some people.
“Shadow Lords.”
“You are truly intelligent. “He was once a promising hero candidate.”
Zorra whistled.
“Those abominable shadow lords completely hid my existence beyond history. “If I had known that I would not even have my name left in history, I would have gone a little more extreme.”
While alive.
Zorua achieved just enough feats to become a hero.
And he acted like a hero more than anyone else.
To avoid pursuit as much as possible.
No one could have imagined that a noble hero would slaughter another hero in the dark just because he wanted power.
After the shadow was caught and subdued, the record itself was erased.
Therefore, being hidden from history was instantaneous.
“If it was so disappointing, shouldn’t you have lived properly?”
“are you okay. “Now the world will never forget my name again.”
“Your name, etc. “There will be nothing but infamy left behind.”
“Hehehe. I guess I was mistaken. “As a hero, I don’t covet achievements.”
Zorua burst out laughing.
“It is enough to just let this world know that I existed. Whether it’s notoriety or fame. The shape doesn’t matter. “I just need to let the world know that the hero slayer was none other than me.”
“For that matter, it seems like you’ve been hiding like a rat even though you have a new life?”
“of course. I want to leave my name in history with a perfect appearance. “It was nice to get a new opportunity.”
Zorua burst into laughter and took off his hood.
“It turned out to be this ugly thing.”
Just- just- just-
The white bones clashed with their teeth.
Despite the humorous appearance, Raina only had a cold expression.
* * *
Zorua said while looking at Raina like that.
“What a pity. Too bad. If you had grown up and become a hero, you would have gained tremendous power. Even more so than the current head of the Gerdinger family, Seld Gerdinger.”
“You’re the one who made me like this, right? “Once again, what are you regretting?”

“I can’t help but regret it.”
Grumbling-
Zorua’s body was covered in flames.
Reina realized that it was her flame and gritted her teeth.
After being covered in flames, Raina’s face stiffened at the sight of a woman who had just begun to take off her girlish form.
“This is the best thing about losing your body. “This allowed me to become whoever I wanted to be.”
Zorua cheerfully turned in place.
Looking at that, veins appeared on Raina’s hands.
It was a lost version of myself.
Zorua said as he stood down.
“I am. Aim for the moment when the prey shines the brightest. “Because I want to cherish those times forever.”
Zorua’s eyes turned to Raina.
“You really shined at this time. Better than any hero I’ve ever seen. Even though he sacrificed himself, even though he was in a situation where he was going to die, he didn’t hesitate to burn himself. He didn’t seem to have any regrets about risking his life for others. It was truly dazzling. So he harvested and didn’t bother to kill himself. “I thought you would die if I left you alone, but I thought that if you survived, you would become a very noble person.”
Zorua’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Raina’s past self.
“But no. you are regretting “I mean he sacrificed himself back then.”
Zorua clicked his tongue.
“If I had known that would happen, I would have left you alone without hunting you earlier. “May you grow into a nobler being.”
“Then why don’t you kill me now?”
“Is it worth it to you?”
Zorua burst out laughing.
“All you have to do is act as bait to attract Leo Plov.”
Raina’s tightly clenched hands trembled.
“so. “What on earth is Leo Plov?”
Zorua looked around the room.
“It’s rare to see such a dull person.”
People are bound to leave traces where they stay.
Personality, likes, dislikes.
You leave behind more things than you think where you stay.
It may seem trivial at first glance.
But those little things come together and become the prey’s weaknesses.
That’s why Zorua came to the room to learn about the person named Leo.
But I couldn’t feel anything in Leo’s room.
Zorua looked at Raina, who was silent with her head down, and then spoke harshly.
“It’s really useless other than bait.”
With those words, Zorua went out.
“Then shall we go greet the guests?”
Reina, who was left alone in Leo’s room, looked down at her hands.
Reina gritted her teeth and remembered the past.
Distant past.
Before you lose your spark.
I heard that Ellen Lundua, a Seilun honors student in the same grade who had been competing since first grade, was in danger.
I felt a sense of kinship with him as he used the same Phoenix flame.
Even though we were from different schools, thanks to that, we became close friends for whom it would be worth sacrificing our lives.
When I heard that Ellen Lundah failed after entering the hero dungeon.
Without hesitation, Raina jumped into the hero dungeon to find Eren.
Originally, additional entry into the world of heroes was not possible.
However, when the hero dungeon exploded, you could get caught up in the flood.
That was the reason why Ellen’s party was able to find out that their attack had failed.
If the strategy had been successful, the runaway would have stopped.
However, the flooding did not stop and the size of the dungeon grew even larger.
A phenomenon that signifies failure.
Even when her life or death was unclear, Raina entered the hero dungeon without hesitation for her best friend.
And saw.
‘Gray sky.’
Raina could tell by looking at it.
The world of the nameless hero is the world of the hero who lived during the era of disaster.
In order to find Ellen, Raina searched the surrounding area and was able to find Ellen, who survived alone.
Reina desperately put all her effort into finding the conditions to attack with Ellen.
There were endless battles with monsters of this type.
And soon, I reached my limit and felt death.
and… … .
‘When I came to my senses… … The world has already been conquered and I lost my spark.’
Surviving itself was literally a miracle.
Because the wound was serious.
At that time, I thought I had lost my spark due to excessive use of the flame.
‘I thought so… … ‘I never thought it would be taken away by Hero Slayer.’
Reina gritted her teeth.
It was just as Hero Slayer said.
I regretted what happened back then.
Throwing away your future and sacrificing yourself for others.
Even now, I regret that choice.
It was just as Zorua said.
He was not a noble person.
Reina, who was gritting her teeth, suddenly looked puzzled.
A gray sky appeared.
‘… … Come to think of it, back then. ‘Why didn’t you give up?’
The hero’s last memory in the world was a blur.
I remembered a memory from that time that I had deliberately ignored.
Memories of a time when I gave up on everything and then got my mind together again.
‘okay… … It must have been dawn at that time.’
In my faint memories, I remembered the dawn that broke out in the era of disaster.
And there was one more thing that came to mind in the memories I thought were in vain.
‘person.’
A person who fell towards himself from the sky with his back to the sun.
I gathered my resolve thinking that that person would save me.
At the time, it was something I dismissed as meaningless.
but… … .
‘Is that possible… … Wasn’t this the scene where the era of disaster ended?
After thinking about that, Reina looked around the room.
It was the room of his son, who succeeded Kyle, the hero of the beginning.
Reina took a deep breath.
‘okay. ‘I am where I am now because I didn’t give up then.’
Reina left the room.
‘Leo will win.’
But I couldn’t pass everything on to Leo.
Reina returned to her room and looked at the sword hanging on the wall.
It might not be of any help.
Because he is no longer a knight of Gerdinger.
‘But that doesn’t mean it’s not a knight.’
It’s not Gerdinger’s article.
Reina has never stopped thinking of herself as a knight.
‘A knight is someone who protects someone.’
And this was the Plov family’s land, and she was the Plov family’s mistress.
‘I still have something to protect.’
When I first held the sword.
Reina admired the knights from fairy tales.
I dreamed of becoming like those knights.
It may be a foolish dream.
While chasing that dream, everything about him turned into ashes.
He clearly regretted the moment he sacrificed everything to save his friend.
but… … .
Even if that moment comes again.
Even if I have to live in regret again.
Raina will make the same choice again.
‘That’s me?’
That’s why Reina picked up her sword.
‘So that there is no danger to the people living in this land. I have to protect it.’
