810.
Flash-
The warp gate glowed brightly.
Several people appeared with him at the warp gate.
Calian, the headmaster of Lumeren, who was tending to the trees in the garden around the warp gate in his gardener’s attire, glared at the sight.
“You’re finally here!”
He jumped up and took off his wide-brimmed straw hat.
“Student Leah! I’ve been waiting for you!”
Leah pressed her temples as she saw Kalyan welcoming her happily like a grandfather seeing his grandchild after a long time.
“Principal. Isn’t it outside of business hours right now… …?”
“That’s okay! Don’t we have some very, very capable professors at Lumerun? They’re doing the work for this old man!”
“Professor Harlind, Professor Sedzen… … and Professor Reina, you must be busy with managing the students, right?”
“These are the friends I’ve been watching since I was a student! They’re so, so capable! They’re not the kind of people who would bat an eye at that level of overwork!”
“If the principal does his job, they won’t have to suffer from overwork!”
“Oh? Isn’t this all because of student Leah?!”
“Why me all of a sudden?”
“Isn’t Leah so talented that she even takes my work? She’s gotten so used to a life without work. Her eyes have been bleary lately.”
Leah sighed deeply as she looked at the joking Kalyan, and then she noticed someone approaching from afar.
“It’s Professor Harlind.”
“Tch. How persistent.”
Kallian, who clicked his tongue, tried to run away.
But Leah used her magic to catch Kallian by the ankle.
“An attack on an elderly person! The Leah student I know is not a delinquent student who would do such outrageous things!”
When Kallian glared and protested.
Tub-
“Sir, it’s office hours.”
“Harlind! Let go of this! I need to give a little sermon to my Leah student… …!”
“Work comes before preaching. Ain, Len.”
Okay- Okay-
At Harlind’s call, his loyal aides, Professor Ain and Ren, grabbed Kallian’s arms.
“Take him to the principal’s office.”
“You’re working the old people too hard! Don’t you think you’ll ever age!”
Kallian’s desperate cries rang out, but Ain and Ren did not listen.
Harlind glanced at Leah.
“I see you’re back.”
“Yes, Professor Harlind.”
Harlind’s gaze turned to the others as he looked at Leah, who was nodding.
‘The student council presidents of other hero academies who interact with Leia. And… … .’
Harlind’s last gaze landed on Leo.
Harlind approached Leo.
When Leo made a puzzled expression, Harlind said.
“What’s your name?”
“This is Leo.”
“Leora… … .”
Harlind also knew that the boy in front of him was the one who caused the current disturbance in Lumeren.
Harlind looked at Leo for a moment and then said.
“Have you ever thought about becoming a professor in Lumeren?”
Leo’s eyes widened at the sudden scout offer.
But soon he laughed.
“I don’t think it’s time to teach anyone yet.”
“Looking at Chelsea Llewallin and Illyana Raden, I don’t think that’s the case.”
“I just gave you a little guidance.”
“That too is a great education.”
“You would be better suited as an educator than I am.”
Leo smiled brightly, grabbed Leah’s shoulders, and pulled her towards him.
Leah looked back, her eyes wide open.
“well.”
Harlind said indifferently.
“You may be a great leader, but as an educator you seem to be a little lacking.”
“Hmm? I was also greatly influenced by this.”
“There is a big difference between showing the way and leading and teaching the way and pushing from behind.”
Having said that, Harlind turned around without any hesitation.
“If you’re interested, just let me know.”
Leaving those words, Halind followed Kalyan and left.
“Were you also doing the principal’s work?”
“Yeah, I think that would be more efficient. When I’m busy or out of the office, Principal Kallian takes care of the work again… … He’s been thinking about retiring recently.”
“That makes sense.”
“Hey. How long are you going to hold on to that?”

At that moment, Rune, who had come between the two, slapped Leo’s hand, which was holding Leah’s shoulders.
“By the way, I’ve been thinking about this for a while now. That guy named Harlind is really sharp.”
Balhar said, stroking his chin.
“The eyes that see through the essence are accurate.”
“Well, Professor Harlind has that side to him.”
Leo nodded.
“Does your world’s Principal Kallian also run away and shirk work like this?”
Leo smiled bitterly at Leah’s question.
“Our world’s Headmaster Kallian single-handedly held off the Demon Queen, but with all his might he closed his eyes.”
“ah…….”
“It was a wonderful ending befitting a man who carried an era.”
Leah remained silent.
Looking at Leah like that, Rune said.
“Okay, Leah. Now you should go to the students. There’s a lot to learn.”
Leah narrowed her eyes as she looked at the rune that was carrying her back.
“Do you think you want to send me away quickly?”
“Really? Leo will be running wild, so there’ll be a lot to clean up… … and I’ll also have to show the kids their own paths.”
“Yeah. You must be very busy.”
“So quickly… … .”
“Is Leah busy?”
“Ouch, oh, oh, oh, oh! What the hell is this!”
Leo pulled Rune’s ear.
When Rune glared and protested, Leo pushed Rune towards the warp gate.
“You have things to take care of in Seirun too. Like the Pureblood Society. Like the descendants you haven’t been able to take care of.”
Rune paused at those words.
“In some ways, you were the laziest of the four of you.”
“Ugh.”
Rune’s ears drooped with a stinging expression.
“… … That’s right. How pathetic.”
Leah, who emphasized Kyle-like qualities to her students.
Although it was a very self-centered explanation, Kar tried to teach the Azonia students a lot.
Unlike Balhar, who passed on his skills exclusively, Rune was a great hero who stood still the longest.
“I… … might be disqualified as the founder of the nebula.”
Leo said as he looked at Rune, who was lowering her head with a gloomy expression.
“You just have to do well from now on.”
“huh?”
“You’re a genius, aren’t you? If you put your mind to it, you’ll get inspiration just by looking at the Seirun kids.”
At those words, Rune’s drooping ears began to stand up little by little and soon began to prickle incessantly.
And then he crossed his arms and snorted.
“That’s true! The greatest genius in the history of magic! Because you’re Lady Luna!”
Rune, who was filled with pride at Leo’s compliment, ran to the warp gate.
“I’ll finish quickly and come back! Wait for me! Leo!”
Balhar shook his head as he watched Rune return to Seirun with a refreshing smile.
“Sooner or later, the entire elven society will be in ruins.”
The Pureblood Society is secretly linked to Tartarus.
Until now, the unmotivated Rune had not judged the elven society to be that rotten, but now it was a different story.
“I’ll sweep it away in an instant.”
Quick thinking and decisiveness.
And it is a rune that also has action power.
If you couldn’t see it, you wouldn’t know.
The moment we find a clue through Leo, the cleanup of the Pureblood Society will literally be a breeze.
‘It may seem like reckless behavior, but judgments on the spot are accurate.’
“Leah. You take care of the kids too.”
“Yeah. Leo, you’ll be staying in Lumeren as a guest for a while?”
“That’s right. I have something to ask of you.”
“ask?”
Karga tilted his head.
“okay.”
Leo clenched his fists.
“I want to see how well you are utilizing the abilities I have inherited… and whether you can develop them further.”
***
A small smokehouse attached to the front of the accommodation building provided to guests of Lumerun.
Leo, Kar, and Balhar were talking.
“You said you exuded life force when you fought?”
Leo looked at Kar with surprised eyes.
“That’s right. At that time, Kar was definitely breathing out murderous intent towards that evil spirit called Nyx.”
“What a cowardly guy to think like that.”
During the time of calamity.
Although Kar possessed overwhelming power, his timid and kind personality prevented him from truly having murderous intentions toward his opponents.
The only time Karga could truly fight with all his might was when his comrades were in danger.
Leo couldn’t believe that such a gentle Karga could breathe life into him.
“You’ve made a big decision.”
At Leo’s words, Karga clenched his fist.
“… … I felt deep in my bones how much I relied on you all in my past life.”
“Hmm. Now I can think about that too. It’s pretty good, isn’t it?”
“Yeah. Because I didn’t take any responsibility in my past life.”
“huh?”
“Leah was in charge of the world, and Rune always worked to enrich Gadthron with his magical skills. Kyle… … Leo, you single-handedly defeated the darkness of the world, and Balhar was our strong advisor.”
“yes.”
“Compared to that… … I’ve been treated with consideration because I’m young.”
“… … .”
“You said I was the bravest person in the world… … but it was you guys who gave me courage.”
Karga opened his eyes wide with a serious expression.
“I have decided that I will now become someone who can be brave on my own.”
“… … You made a great pledge, Kar.”
“lol.”
As Balhar smiled softly, Kar smiled shyly and scratched his head.
Leo chuckled at the sight.
“You’ve decided to go forward too.”
“huh.”
“But there’s something I need to correct.”
“huh?”
“You were neither particularly considerate nor irresponsible.”
“Huh? No, Leo. If you’re trying to comfort me, then it’s okay.”
“So, instead of comforting me, I’m telling you the truth… … .”
Thud-!
“Huh?!”
Balhar wrapped his thick forearms around Leo’s neck from behind.
Leo, who was breathless at Balhar’s overwhelming strength, hit Balhar’s forearm.
“Kar. I’ll go see Leah for a moment.”
“Huh? Why Leah all of a sudden?”
“Tell Leah the story you told us earlier. She’ll be most pleased.”
“Oh, yeah!”
Karga smiled innocently, nodded, and ran away.
As Karga disappeared into the distance, Balhar let Leo go.
“Ugh! Ugh! What the hell is this old man doing?”
Leo, who was protesting while stroking his neck, was kicked in the back by Balhar!
“Is there anything that can discourage Karl? What are you going to do if you tell him the truth?”
“Why? At that time, I didn’t make him do anything because it wouldn’t help! It’s time for him to know what he needs to know!”
“Shut up! You should just be purely happy about Kar’s growth!”
“So. If you know what you need to know, you’ll grow more, right?”
“Harlind’s eyes are wrong! You are the worst educator!”
one side.
“… … You’ve made a big decision. Kar… … But. What’s with that smile?”
“Huh? Did you try following Leo? How was it? It’s cool, right? Rune taught me!”
‘I hope this doesn’t get stained.’
In the end, it was Kar who ended up being influenced by fools.
Leah felt like she couldn’t tell whether to cry or laugh at the smile that reminded her of someone just by looking at them.
***
Erebos, in the form of Kyle, looked up at the sky.
At any moment, I can dye that blue sky the crimson color of death.
But Erebos did not do so.
However, he swallowed the fragment held by his confidant, the Lord of the Underworld, and the resurrected Nyx, and was reborn as half of himself.
‘It’s not time yet.’
Erebos narrowed his eyes.
‘If a surviving hero from another dimension came here… … there must be an entrance.’
Through that entrance, you pass into a world where no great hero exists.
‘And then turn that place into ashes and devour the pieces of me that are there.’
After that.
‘I will return here and turn both worlds into ashes.’
If that happens.
‘You can never stop me, surviving hero.’
