121.

It was coincidentally the day Leo attended the Ajonia entrance exam when a sudden visitor came to the Flobe family.

“Madam.”

Raina, who had been leisurely enjoying tea and refreshments in the mansion’s garden, looked puzzled at the maid who approached her.

“What is it?”

“A guest has arrived.”

“A guest?”

Rustle-

Raina looked puzzled as she turned the pages of the morning newspaper.

It was rare for guests to visit the Flobe household.

Although it was a prestigious family in Delad, the family head Daid Flobe didn’t show his face in social circles, and Raina rarely attended social parties either.

Of course, after Leo became famous, the number of people requesting meetings had increased considerably.

But since they had continuously declined meetings, there was no reason for news of a guest to reach Raina.

“Who do they say they are?”

“They say they’re a school friend of the young master.”

“Really? Then could you bring them here for now?”

“Yes.”

Currently, both Daid and Leo were absent from the Flobe family mansion.

Raina was the only one available to receive guests.

Originally, she should have received guests formally, but.

‘If they didn’t reveal which family they’re from and just said they’re Leo’s school friend, it probably means they genuinely came to visit.’

Being overly courteous to someone who isn’t making a formal visit would also be burdensome.

So Raina decided to receive the guest as a friend’s parent.

‘The fact that they visited so casually means they must be close to Leo. I wonder what kind of child it is?’

Raina hummed at the visit from her son’s school friend.

Shortly after, she could see a girl in a white dress coming with the maid.

The girl with light blue hair who stood before Raina, Chelsea, bowed her head politely upon seeing Raina.

“Hello, I’m Chelsea, a classmate of Leo oppa.”

Chelsea, who greeted politely, looked at Raina with a slightly nervous expression.

It was because she knew that Leo’s mother was from Jerdinger.

Raina also looked somewhat surprised upon seeing Chelsea, who was clearly from the Rwallin family at first glance.

‘She’s the kid who teamed up with Leo during the entrance exam.’

Raina smiled slightly, recalling Chelsea who had been threatened by Leo at that time.

“Welcome. Would you like to sit here?”

“Yes!”

Chelsea smiled brightly and sat in front of Raina.

“Oh, this is a gift I brought.”

Chelsea handed over the cake and refreshments she had bought before departure.

It was from a famous maker in the capital of the Rodren Empire.

“It’s been a while since I’ve seen this shop.”

“Um… please speak comfortably!”

“Should I do that then?”

Raina smiled and said.

“But our son has been away from home for several days… I hope I’m not making you wait for nothing.”

“It’s okay! I was planning to stay in Delad for a few days during summer vacation anyway.”

“Is that so? Hehe. That’s a relief. By the way, how is our son doing at school? He doesn’t tell me about the small details.”

“He’s a complete honor student! Leo oppa is really amazing!”

Chelsea smiled brightly and told her about Leo’s school life.

Watching Chelsea talk happily about Leo with sparkling eyes, Raina smiled gently.

“Hehe, listening to your stories reminds me of my own school days.”

“Were you also a Lumern student, Raina-nim?”

“Yes. Your father, Chaid Rwallin, was my senior by two years, so we knew each other well.”

“You went to school together with father!”

Chelsea’s eyes widened in surprise.

“Yes.”

“I’ll have to ask father about Raina-nim’s school days when I go back!”

‘He probably won’t have many good stories to tell.’

Raina chuckled.

Certainly, due to Raina’s wild behavior during her school days, Chaid Rwallin, who was two years her senior, had suffered considerably.

“Chelsea. This auntie enjoys talking with you very much. If it’s okay with you, would you like to stay at our house until Leo comes back?”

“Is that really okay?”

“Of course.”

“Then think of it as your own home and stay comfortably.”

“Yes! Thank you!”

Chelsea smiled brightly and expressed her gratitude.

Raina looked at Chelsea as if she found her adorable.

***

Leo, who had returned to the Kingdom of Delad, looked puzzled when he saw Chelsea having a conversation with Raina at home.

“Chelsea? When did you arrive?”

“I came two days ago.”

“Our timing was off.”

“It’s okay. Listening to old school stories from Raina-nim was very enjoyable!”

Watching Chelsea speak with a bright smile, Raina looked pleased.

Raina seemed quite fond of the lively and charming Chelsea.

The relationship between Jerdinger and Rwallin wasn’t an obstacle either, since Raina had abandoned the Jerdinger name.

“You came back earlier than expected, Leo.”

“Yes. There was a bit of an incident.”

“An incident?”

“I’ll tell you about it later.”

“Alright. Go up to your room and rest for now.”

“Yes, let’s go. Chelsea.”

“Okay.”

Chelsea bowed politely to Raina and followed Leo up to his room.

“Where did you go during vacation?”

“I went to Azrek briefly.”

“Azrek? Why there? Ah! Did you go to watch the Ajonia entrance ceremony?”

“No, I went to participate in the entrance exam.”

“What?”

Chelsea’s eyes widened.

Leo explained the whole story to Chelsea.

“Wow, Leo oppa spends even his vacation so spectacularly?”

“I guess so.”

Leo burst into laughter and opened the door to enter.

Chelsea hesitated in front of that door.

‘Leo oppa’s room.’

Being the bright personality that Chelsea was, she had many friends around her since childhood.

She had actually visited friends’ houses a few times, but had never visited a male friend’s house.

So even though it was a school friend’s room, she felt a strange flutter at entering a male peer’s room.

Chelsea, who followed Leo inside, looked around the room carefully.

She wondered if there would be something different since he was an unprecedented all-class student and the school’s top honor student, but there was nothing special.

“Do you get along well with mother?”

“Of course! I told you, didn’t I? She would find me adorable!”

Chelsea made a proud expression and laughed! Huhu! Then tilted her head curiously.

“But Leo, what are you doing about your homework?”

“I’m working on it. What about you?”

“I finished it all in one go.”

Chelsea shrugged her shoulders.

Chelsea’s explanation was that she quickly finished her homework early in the vacation so she could rest comfortably during the break.

Of course, the amount of homework from Lumern was vast, but Chelsea was also one of the top students among the first years.

With her characteristic drive, she had quickly finished her homework.

“Want me to show you?”

“If I copy it, the professors will notice like ghosts, won’t they?”

“True.”

Chelsea nodded her head.

“By the way, how was Azonia’s entrance ceremony?”

“It was chaotic. Arron’s Heroes’ World opened.”

“What? During the entrance ceremony?”

Chelsea was shocked.

“Yeah. The admission candidates entered Arron’s world, so the desert crossing marathon was postponed by a day.”

“Amazing! So what happened to Arron’s Heroes’ World?”

“The admission candidates conquered it.”

“Whoa! The Azonia kids are no joke either. To conquer a great hero’s world!”

Leo considered telling her that he had conquered it, but then closed his mouth.

Because Ain and Yura had earnestly asked him not to tell others.

“Mmm! Only half the vacation is left now.”

Chelsea stretched fully.

“It feels like time is passing quickly… but also like it isn’t.”

Chelsea swung her legs while recalling the hectic first semester.

“Anyway, play with me for a few days! Take me to some good restaurants here too!”

“Alright.”

When Leo chuckled and nodded, Chelsea hummed happily.

***

That night, late.

Leo held the Light Gem in his hand in his room.

Inside the Light Gem, he could clearly feel the presence of the shadow spirit, Elsi.

‘What on earth is going on here?’

Leo had been receiving impossible rewards while conquering Heroes’ Worlds until now.

But Elsi, a being from the past, crossing over from a Heroes’ World to reality was a completely different matter.

‘Is this happening because… I’m Kail?’

He thought deeply but nothing came to mind.

‘I need to check Elsi’s condition first.’

Leo channeled his spiritual power to wake Elsi, who seemed to be in deep sleep with no response.

Wooong-

The Light Gem instantly turned black.

That black light soon escaped the Light Gem and gathered above Leo’s palm.

It was as if a shadow was alive and writhing.

After a moment, the small darkness lifted and palm-sized Elsi revealed herself.

Elsi’s closed eyes trembled slightly.

[Where… is this?]

“Are you awake?”

[Huh? Where did the rabbit ears go?]

Elsi looked at Leo and tilted her head curiously.

Hearing those words, Leo realized that the Elsi he met in Arron’s world had come to reality as she was.

“What is this really.”

[I feel stuffy somehow! It seems like I can’t use my full power.]

Elsi made a frustrated expression as if trapped in a narrow space.

Leo assessed Elsi’s condition.

‘Indeed, she’s not in perfect condition.’

Elsi’s power was so weak it couldn’t be called that of a great spirit.

Of course, she hadn’t lost her power.

The power of a great spirit was still latent within Elsi.

However, Elsi couldn’t fully draw out her abilities.

To draw out her power, she needed help from Leo, her contractor.

‘Is she bound to me?’

Leo looked at the back of his hand.

Elsi was completely bound to Leo.

She was like a spirit dwelling in a specific object.

If the contract with Leo was severed, she would disappear.

Literally, Leo’s existence was maintaining Elsi, a spirit from the distant past, in the modern era.

‘Haha. Who would have thought Heroes’ Worlds had such abilities hidden within them.’

The power to manifest abilities from the distant past in the current era.

Surprisingly, that category included spirits and magical beasts as well.

While Leo was shocked, Elsi, who had been flying around with a frustrated expression, looked out the window.

And she froze upon discovering something.

[Huh?]

Elsi made a confused expression.

In the night sky, countless particles of light she had never seen before were visible.

Pressing herself against the window and staring up at them intently, Elsi turned to Leo with an excited expression.

[Kail! The moon isn’t red! There are strange particles of light in the night sky! What are those? They look like! The starlight I’ve only heard about in stories?]

Watching Elsi point at the night sky with one hand while wildly gesturing with the other as if trying to explain something, Leo said.

“Those are stars.”

Elsi’s eyes widened in amazement.

“Listen carefully, Elsi.”

Leo took a deep breath.

“You won’t believe it, but… you’re in the future now.”

[What?]

“This is the world 5000 years after Erebos was defeated.”

Elsi made an incredulous expression.

[Is that possible? Then you’re saying you brought me to the future… Kail, who are you?]

“My name now is Leo Flobe.”

[Leo Flobe?]

“Yes, and 5000 years ago in the age of calamity, I was called the ‘Surviving Hero’ Kail.”

[…!]

“I defeated Erebos and was reincarnated in this era.”
