“… … .
Chloe held the black grimoire tightly.
“I wanted to win somehow. But I couldn’t think of a way to win. so… … so… … “I borrowed someone else’s power, not my own.”
The unique magic Chloe was originally preparing was an ice field magic.
However, thinking that he could not beat Leo in the test with that magic, he prepared an undying flame.
That wasn’t the magic trick Chloe created.
‘I just implemented it based on the magic spell written in this grimoire.’
Even Chloe didn’t know how the magic worked.
Since it was a unique magic, it was just glossed over as being unique to oneself.
That was why I reacted more sharply than necessary when someone asked about magic.
It was announced on the day of the exam and the unquenchable flame won Leo over as expected.
I was very happy at that moment. She thought she had finally caught up. but… … .
‘There’s no way I can say I’ve caught up with this!’
Chloe, who was gritting her teeth, burst into laughter.
‘What can I do by complaining to this person?’
A genius girl who is still talked about 30 years later.
‘He’s a different person from me. ‘He must be special like Leo.’
Even if I tried to talk to this person about my true feelings, there was no way he would understand.
It would be nice if they didn’t laugh at it.
Alia, who was silently looking at Chloe, smiled.
“As expected, Chloe looks similar to me.”
“yes?”
“Actually. “I was also extremely jealous of my brother.”
Alia grinned.
“I thought a lot that it would be unlucky to do anything that looked stupid. This is a secret. The basic system of my unique magic was actually created by my brother. Although I am excellent at using existing magic, I am terrible at creating new ones. In fact, I failed the Lumern entrance exam twice.”
Alia brought her knees to her chest.
Chloe made a blank expression.
It is hard to believe that he is an unfortunate magic genius who is still talked about today.
“There was a time when I really hated my brother. But suddenly a thought occurred to me. If a person is jealous and hateful, wouldn’t he be worthy of being an object of admiration? “I do.”
At those words, Chloe looked down at the black grimoire.
‘Longing for… … Target?’
***
Leo, who had been resting with his eyes closed, opened them.
And then he jumped up from his seat.
“Leo. Is there a problem?”
In response to Bellick’s question, Leo looked to one side of the forest.
“Everyone prepare for battle!”
Leo’s extra senses caught something.
At that moment, the other person also recognized this.
“Leo, what’s going on?”
“It’s a guy.”
Chloe took a breath.
“no way… … ?”
“okay.”
Leo drew his sword.
thud-! thud-!
The sound of the earth shaking was heard.
After a while, a giant of this type appeared from the bushes.
The height is likely to be 3m.
Jet-black skin.
It was just like what I saw in the picture.
“Chuvarn… … !”
Chloe gritted her teeth.
Chuvarn rolled his dark red eyes and looked at Leo.
His mouth opened wide.
“found. A sprout of heroes with the same qualities as the hated great hero!”
Leo twitched his eyes at those words.
Demons are creatures that give priority to orders from higher ranks.
And the order Chuvarn received in the Chedmothers incident was to eliminate the hero.
So Chuvarn did not pay much attention to the conqueror.
‘But now this guy is clearly showing hostility towards me.’
Even though Alia, her biggest target, was right in front of her, her reaction was strange.
‘Besides, he is clearly the sprout of a great hero now… … .’
“Kwaaaaaah!”
Chuvarn roared and charged towards Leo.
Flash-! Kwaang-!
The vicious-shaped ax in Chuvarn’s hand struck the floor.

However, Leo had already left Chubarun’s attack range.
Grumble-!
A flame aura formed on Leo’s sword.
Kagagak-!
Leo’s sword decapitated Chuvarn.
But it didn’t hurt.
Leo’s eyes twitched.
Sigh-!
Chuvarn looked at Leo’s face and laughed evilly.
“You fool!”
Chuvarn stretched out his hand and tried to grab Leo.
But Leo chuckled.
“That’s your mistake, you idiot.”
“what… … .”
Kwakagak-!
A powerful snowstorm shot by Chloe struck Chuvarn.
Chuvarn’s movements slowed down in the cold icy wind.
Leo took advantage of the gap to avoid Chuvarn’s hand and turned his body.
Whirring! Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
The flame aura burned even more fiercely.
Kwahaak-! Phew!
“I got cut!”
“Good!”
The group roared with joy.
The sword, which increased its power by using rotational force, cut off Chuvarun’s head.
But Leo’s face was not bright.
‘I couldn’t cut the bone.’
Demons are different from ordinary living creatures.
A heterogeneous race created by Erebos.
This cannot be a fatal injury.
Leo immediately kicked Chuvarn’s head and used the recoil to increase the distance.
‘First of all, the attack still works.’
Leo, who was looking at Chuvarn while taking a deep breath, opened his eyes wide.
The blood that had been flowing like a fountain from Chuvarun’s wound suddenly stopped.
That wasn’t all.
The blood that had been pouring suddenly began to be sucked into the wound.
Ttuk-ttuk-
“H-that’s a pretty good attack.”
Chuvarn laughed, bobbing his neck from side to side.
Teyaed was shocked when he saw that.
“Nonsense! What kind of recovery ability… … !”
“That’s not recovery ability.”
“yes? “Then what is it?”
“It’s a curse.”
Curse was one of the special abilities possessed by demons.
The curses used by low-level demons only weakened the opponent’s strength, but the high-level curses even distorted the laws of reality.
“[invalidity]. “It’s an annoying curse that makes an attack seem like it never happened.”
Leo slung his sword over his shoulder.
“Hoo? “I know very well.”
“Isn’t it too much of a curse for a level 3 demon to use?”
“H-you speak very arrogantly. But you’re right. “This curse is the favor of the monster queen Silatuna.”
The first graders trembled in fear at the name of Monster Queen.
Demon Queen Silatuna.
He was the commander of the legions of Tartarus and a confidant of Erebos who survived the Age of Calamity.
“That’s an unlucky name I haven’t heard in a long time.”
Leo said irritably.
“If the attack is nullified… … “How on earth am I supposed to win?”
Alia asked in horror.
“Even an invalid curse is not omnipotent. Besides, he wasn’t the one who wrote the curse. “If you use it multiple times, the curse disappears.”
“H-Do you think you guys will be able to live until the curse disappears?”
With those words, Chuvarn’s men emerged through the bushes.
“Abandon the thought of getting out alive. “You, the remnants of great heroes, will die here.”
“Remnants of a great hero?”
Leo chuckled.
“Are you calling me that because I’m all-class like Kyle?”
“Shut up! “Do not utter that hateful name!”
Looking at Chuvarn’s violent reaction, Leo could see how Alia Party escaped Chuvarn.
‘There were surveillance networks spread out by demons all over the forest. I and Chloe thought we weren’t the target of the attack anyway, so we weren’t paying attention.’
Leo sighed.
‘This guy found out through the surveillance network that I was in this class. That’s why he kept following me.’
Leo, who used his extra senses to avoid the demons, unintentionally played tag with Chubarun.
The great demons who survived the Age of Disaster, like Silatuna, are alive and well.
If so, the demons will remember Kyle.
Kyle, who killed the creator of Tartarus, would be the demons’ greatest enemy.
‘People have forgotten about me, but demons remember me. ‘It’s ironic.’
Leo, who had finished assessing the situation, said as he tightened his grip on his sword.
“Get ready.”
“Do you think you little brats can defeat me?”
“of course.”
“H-that’s great confidence. But are your colleagues the same as you?”
Chuvarn pointed back with his finger.
When I looked back, the group was trembling in fear.
“You’re the only one with courage. “Your colleagues are at their limit both mentally and physically.”
It wasn’t wrong.
Everyone in the party was exhausted from the continued battle.
“Kkkkkk.”
However, Leo burst out laughing at Chubarn’s words.
“Why are you smiling? “Have you lost your mind?”
“no. “I just think you don’t know much about Lumern.”
“what?”
“Lumern is a school where guys who dream of becoming heroes enroll.”
The hero candidates’ eyes landed on Leo’s back.
Jeopuk- Jeopuk-
Leo took a step.
The hero candidates’ tremors began to subside.
Will slowly returned to the eyes, and aura, magical power, and spiritual power swirled around.
In real history, they died.
However, they were never massacred by Chuvarn without their hands.
‘Nowhere did it say that there was a [null] curse on Chuvarn. That means. It means that Chuvarn used up all of his [Invalid] curses in the first fight.’
It was proof that no one gave up even if they died.
Just like the great heroes who lost their lives to Erebos a long time ago.
“That’s why I always remember these words.”
A lesson that all Lumern students keep in their hearts.
The most basic condition for becoming a hero.
“Go beyond your limits.”
Taaa-!
As Leo kicked off the ground, Teyad and Belac charged together with their spears and swords raised.
“You fools! “If that’s your wish, I’ll kill you guys first!”
Chuvarn roared and swung his axe.
“I’ll take care of that guy, so you take care of the soldiers.”
“Is that possible?”
“It’s possible, so don’t worry about me!”
Leo charged towards Chuvarn.
bang-!
Chuvarn’s ax struck the floor.
Fragments of the soil turned into black awls and rained down on Leo.
‘It would have been a little better if I could summon Fiora.’
You may not know that it is a world of ordinary heroes.
In the hero dungeon, which was completely cut off from the outside world due to a runaway, the illusionist was unable to summon the illusionist.
While elemental magic was a kind of treaty that borrowed the power of all spirits, genjutsu was a 1:1 contract between the summoner and the phantom beast.
Therefore, when illusionists entered the hero dungeon, they had to summon a phantom beast in advance and enter the hero dungeon together.
‘It’s difficult to hit Chuvarn with elemental magic. then.’
Woe!
Leo’s appearance increased in number.
“no!”
Chubarn was astonished.
Illusionary magic, mirage.
Black awls pierced Leo’s illusion in vain.
Meanwhile, additional Leo attacks continued.
When he made his right hand into the shape of a gun, particles of light gathered at the tip.
Keyee-!
“Ah cray!”
Squeeze! Flash!
The small bead of light became a bullet and flew away.
The most basic attack magic among star magic.
The magic swordsman Dani saw this and was astonished.
“That guy! Was it a magic swordsman? Also, mirage and ah cray? “They are both star magic!”
Sigh-!
“Huh?”
Chuvarn, who had been hit directly by [Ah Cray], opened his eyes wide.
Star Magic is a magic created by Luna to subdue demons.
Therefore, it was basically magic that was like a natural enemy to demons.
“Humans use this hateful magic!”
“I’m sorry, but I’m not the only star magic user?”
“Ah cray.”
Alia also released the spell.
This time, not one but several beads of light rained down on Chuvarn.
Burbubbubbuk!
“bloke!”
Chuvarn let out a roar as a bead of light hit his body.
Gooooooo-!
[Invalid] The curse was activated and all the wounds on Chuvarun’s body disappeared.
“Tsk.”
Chloe shouted as Leo clicked his tongue.
“Leo! “Hold on a little!”
“don’t worry. “Because that’s my role.”
In response to Leo’s response, Chloe closed her eyes and began to recite the spell.
Modern wizards are largely divided into three types.
A combat-type wizard who sits in the front line.
An all-round wizard who can take his place in any line.
A traditional wizard who sits in the back line.
Among them, the type whose shortcomings were clearly revealed was a traditional type wizard like Chloe.
‘Because traditional wizards become defenseless while casting spells.’
As the spell was long, I had to be protected by my colleagues.
But the advantages were also clear.
It was an absolute destructive power that refused to be compared to other wizards.
In the current party, Alia is an all-round mage.
Although it was possible to use powerful magic in succession, one absolute hit was not enough.
‘Among us, I am the only one who can deal a fatal blow to Chuvarn. You can’t just rely on Leo. me too… … I have to do something too.’
Chuvarn’s curse passed through Chloe’s mind.
‘If it’s that magic!’
