203

-Distinguished guests in the spectator stands, please evacuate swiftly to the interior of Seirun’s courtyard! I repeat! Distinguished guests in the spectator stands, please evacuate swiftly to the interior of Seirun’s…

Urgent voices echoed throughout the academy.

Those who had come to Seirun to watch the Lusejeon hurriedly evacuated to the interior of Seirun’s main building, following the students’ guidance.

“Foolish Monster Queen.”

Before the Monster Queen arrived.

Among the gathering of heroes and guild members from hero guilds, the first to speak was none other than Birieus.

A man who was active on the front lines against Tartaros that Seirun was responsible for.

Though he hadn’t yet made his name on the Hero Record, his skills were known to rival those of active heroes.

“This is an unprecedented situation, but it’s actually worked out well.”

Birieus looked around at the assembly and spoke forcefully.

“This is Hero Military Academy Seirun. No matter how much of a legion commander she is, this is a place she shouldn’t dare invade. Since she’s walked in here on her own feet, shouldn’t we be grateful?”

Birieus curled up the corners of his mouth.

“Crisis is opportunity! Let’s subjugate Monster Queen Silatuna here today!”

Though it didn’t receive much attention due to the name Hero Military Academy, beyond simply students and educators, the Hero Military Academy had many hidden powers.

Combining all of these, the forces permanently stationed at the academy were strong enough to wage war against the world.

Moreover, this time heroes had been summoned in preparation for Tartaros’s provocation.

Birieus displayed confidence, and when several others nodded in agreement with him.

“It might be possible against an ordinary legion commander, but… our opponent is Monster Queen Silatuna.”

Then Undine Knight Jin from Lumern’s side spoke.

“If we rashly attempt subjugation, we might be the ones who get hurt, don’t you think?”

“My, my. To show fear even with this much military strength – that’s not befitting someone whose name is on the Hero Record.”

As Jin frowned at the rude words, Nergzia spoke coldly.

“Birieus. Is now the time to incite discord with such words?”

“I apologize.”

Birieus bowed deeply toward Nergzia, and seeing this, Nergzia sighed.

Watching this, Jin shook his head inwardly.

‘This is why racial supremacist bastards are…’

Familiar with this type of elf, Jin knew that ignoring them was the best policy.

Then Seirun’s principal, Benet, spoke up.

“It’s true that our current military strength is formidable. But our opponent is a legion commander who has existed since before the Age of Calamity.”

Benet looked at the assembly with his characteristically expressionless face and said.

“She’s absolutely not a being we should try to understand with our common sense. Right now, our goal should be to stop the Monster Queen, not subjugate her.”

“I agree with Benet’s words too.”

Nergzia nodded.

At this, several elf heroes showed dissatisfaction.

However, no one dared object to the words of Seirun’s principal and vice-principal, who could be called the overall leaders.

“What do you think, Kalian?”

Benet asked Kalian.

Everyone held their breath and focused on Kalian.

Sword Saint Kalian.

The strongest hero of the current generation who had subjugated a legion commander.

“I also agree with your words.”

At Kalian’s words, Benet nodded.

“Then let’s divide up the duties.”

At Benet’s words, one elf hero raised his hand.

“Principal. Then who will face Monster Queen Silatuna…?”

“I and the heroes I select will stop Silatuna.”

Kalian said calmly.

“You all stop Silatuna’s ‘legion.'”

***

“1st and 2nd years, go to the rear!”

“We want to fight too!”

“Don’t talk nonsense! Does this look like a game to you? This is real combat! Don’t show off unnecessarily and prepare support from the rear!”

Lumern’s professors and Seirun’s teachers quickly led the students.

“Associate Professor Sena! Leo is nowhere to be seen!”

Then Cal shouted urgently.

At Cal’s words, Sena showed a flustered expression.

“Student Leo?”

“Yes! No matter how much I look, I can’t see him!”

The Class 5 students stamped their feet anxiously with worried expressions.

“What on earth should we do…?”

“If it’s Leo Flobe, don’t worry.”

“Vice-Principal?”

At Riben’s appearance, Sena’s eyes widened.

The Class 5 students asked Riben.

“Vice-Principal! Do you know where Leo went?”

“I gave him a mission. He’ll join where the 1st years are soon, so don’t worry.”

“Ah.”

“Thank goodness.”

The Class 5 students breathed sighs of relief.

“Associate Professor Sena, lead Class 5.”

“Ah, yes!”

After calming the Class 5 students, Riben looked at the spectator stands where Leo had disappeared earlier.

‘…I don’t know the reason, but it’s certain that Leo Flobe is currently in the Heroes’ World.’

Earlier, when Leo had disappeared before his eyes, the phenomenon was definitely the same as the reaction when entering the Heroes’ World.

Riben took a deep breath and looked up at the sky.

Heavy rain was still pouring down.

But the ominous Monster Queen’s crest that had been visible in the sky was gone.

‘She must have already descended to the earthly realm.’

And she was certainly summoning her legion and slowly attacking Seirun.

‘What exactly are you scheming, Tartaros?’

***

Outside Seirun’s towering city walls.

The hero alliance of Lumern and Seirun stood there.

“I agree with establishing an external defense line here, but… what are you planning to do?”

When elf hero Rubece Teigra showed a puzzled expression, Ellyn Runda said calmly.

“Just watch.”

It was Sedjen who stepped forward to establish the defense line.

Thud- Thud-

Sedjen, holding a staff in his hand, walked forward alone.

When several elves showed puzzled expressions as they watched Sedjen stop walking at a place far from Seirun’s walls.

Thunk-!

Rummmmmmmble-!

Sedjen struck the ground with the tip of his staff.

The earth began to shake and a massive wall began to rise.

Rummmmmble!

“…!”

Many elves stared wide-eyed at Sedjen, who had created a high wall in an instant.

“Professor Sedjen’s alchemy is still impressive.”

Chaid Rwallin, who was holding a staff behind them, exclaimed in admiration, and Ain nodded.

“Both Professor Sedjen and Professor Hallind would have already made their names on the Hero Record if they had been active on the front lines instead of in teaching positions.”

Although it wasn’t a trait specialized for combat, Sedjen’s alchemy boasted tremendous power that could literally change the tide of battle with ease.

Once the walls were completed, the mages quickly applied enhancement and defensive magic to them.

Having created a new fortress in an instant, the Hero Alliance finished preparing for the legion’s attack.

Kalian, sitting on the wall, asked Hallind.

“Professor Hallind, is communication with the outside still cut off?”

“Yes.”

“Tsk. They came well prepared.”

Spatial movement was also impossible.

It was literally a situation where support from the outside was completely cut off.

However, the eyes of the Hero Alliance burned with fighting spirit.

Everyone here knew.

No matter how terrifying the Monster Queen’s legion that had existed since the Age of Calamity was, a single legion alone could never overcome the Hero Alliance of Lumern and Seirun.

As the Hero Alliance was waiting for the Monster Queen like this.

Thud! Thud! Thud!

The sound of the earth shaking began to be heard.

At the very front, a Gigantes unit could be seen.

On top of the head of the largest entity among them, the figure of a woman sitting on a horrifying throne made of flesh could be seen.

Everyone who saw her gulped nervously.

‘Monster Queen, Silatuna.’

Thud-!

The demon legion led by the Gigantes stopped walking.

The Hero Alliance and the Monster Queen’s legion faced off at a considerable distance.

Swoooosh-!

While the heavy rain still showed no signs of stopping, Silatuna, who was sitting with her legs crossed on the throne, spoke.

“Greetings, you insect-like bastards.”

Silatuna’s ominous voice echoed throughout all of Seirun.

That voice was heard not only by the Hero Alliance that had built the defensive line, but also by the civilians in Seirun and the underclassmen who were on standby.

“My name is Silatuna, a loyal servant of the great calamity Erebos.”

The massive voice had the power to strike people with terror.

“I have personally descended to hunt you, so consider it an honor…”

“Shut up! You filthy demon!”

At that moment, Birieus shouted.

“How dare you invade this place! This is Seirun! Today is the day we subjugate you and resolve our ancestor’s grudge… Gah!”

“What an insolent vermin.”

Gooooo!

Dark red demonic power wrapped around Birieus’s body.

Those around him urgently tried to save Birieus by attempting to dispel the dark red demonic power.

Birieus also raised his resistance to counter Silatuna’s power.

However, he could not resist Silatuna’s curse.

“Who said you could interrupt my words?”

Without even giving Birieus a glance, Silatuna sneered.

“What, you conquer a few Heroes’ Worlds and think you’ve become some great hero?”

“Gah-gah-gah-!”

Birieus made sounds as if he was suffocating.

Just as his body was about to swell up.

Whoosh-!

His body was enveloped in crimson flames.

Thud!

“Gasp! Hah-! Th, thank… you, Lady Ellen.”

Ellen, who had ignited the Phoenix’s flames, burned away Silatuna’s power.

Birieus, who barely saved his life, expressed his gratitude.

“Don’t rashly provoke the enemy.”

Ellen warned Birieus in a cold voice.

As Birieus bowed his head deeply.

“You talk too much, Monster Queen.”

“Sword Saint.”

Kalian stepped forward and Silatuna narrowed her eyes.

“Did you receive my gift well?”

“Yes. I suffered quite a bit because of your rude gift.”

At Silatuna’s provocative words, Kalian chuckled and nodded.

“As a result, I was able to eliminate all the spies you planted inside the school. Monster Queen, it’s fortunate that you’re so crude. If it had been the Overlord King or the Giant King, they wouldn’t have devised such a sloppy scheme.”

Watching Kalian burst into laughter as if enjoying himself, Silatuna smiled with murderous intent.

“This damn old man.”

“So, did you invade Seirun to vent your frustration?”

“What if I did?”

“That works out well for us.”

Kalian smiled with murderous intent.

Gooooo-!

Even the Hero Alliance flinched at the Sword Saint’s terrifying killing intent.

Grooooar?

Keeek?

The Monster Queen’s legion began to stir.

“Your notorious reputation as the most vicious will now become a ‘legend.'”

At those words, Silatuna began to burst into mad laughter.

Kugugugugugu-

The walls that Sedjen had created began to shake from her laughter alone.

The Hero Alliance felt a shudder at that terrifying power.

Silatuna’s insane laughter stopped abruptly.

“What ambitious dreams you have.”

Silatuna raised her hand.

“I’m tired of chattering with words, so shall we begin?”

Kalian also drew his sword.

“Go ahead and struggle. Just like your predecessor heroes did.”

Silatuna wiggled her finger.

Grooooooar!

Thud-! Thud-! Thud-!

The Monster Queen’s legion began charging all at once.

“Everyone prepare for battle.”

At Kalian’s quiet words, the Hero Alliance gripped their respective weapons.

“Attack!”

Simultaneously with Kalian’s shout, the mages’ magic decorated the sky.

Kwagagagagang-!

Brilliant magic exploded on the ground.

Countless monsters began to die in explosions from the magic.

The dark magic shot by the demons hit the walls and caused explosions.

Watching this scene, Silatuna rested her chin on her hand and smiled.

“It’s about time now.”

***

Swoooooosh—

Rain was falling.

Leo opened his eyes as he became aware of it.

“…Black rain…?”

He muttered in a daze.

The black rain that symbolized the Age of Calamity.

‘Right, I’ve entered the Heroes’ World.’

The moment he realized this, Leo noticed he was lying spread-eagle and sat up.

Then he looked around.

The surroundings were ruins.

A devastated castle ruins.

It looked familiar.

‘The Battle of Jerdiak.’

Poison King Jerdiak.

A Legion Commander who wielded terrifying poison.

The most dangerous monster among the Legion Commanders that the Great Heroes had successfully subjugated.

The Battle of Jerdiak was exactly when they subjugated that Jerdiak.

‘History records that the other Great Heroes dealt with Jerdiak’s legion while Luna alone subjugated him, but….’

The actual history was different.

‘Luna and I joined forces to subjugate him.’

Recalling that time, Leo looked around.

‘The Hero Record I touched back then was a record of this time. But why did it activate now of all times?’

Leo felt puzzled.

‘Besides… why isn’t the battle happening?’

In the battle against Jerdiak, Kail and Luna fought without rest.

This was the castle ruins where they subjugated Jerdiak.

Originally, a fierce battle should have been raging right now.

But there was no sign of such activity anywhere.

‘What the hell is going on? Could it be that those Tartaros bastards are up to something here too?’

Previously, in Luna’s World, things were clearly different from actual history.

There was no law saying the same couldn’t happen now.

‘Unlike Lumern, which expelled all the traitors, Seirun still has traitors. Then those Tartaros bastards might have invaded Luna’s World again….’

“You…?”

It was when Leo was lost in thought.

A somewhat surprised voice reached him.

When he hurriedly turned his head, there stood an all-too-familiar elf woman.

Not the girl’s appearance he had seen before, but a mature form.

Seeing her looking at him with surprise, Leo unconsciously called out her name.

“Luna.”

Having instinctively called Luna’s name, Leo fell into worry.

From Luna’s perspective, it would surely seem like a boy she was seeing for the first time had called her name.

But making his worry meaningless, Luna smiled and responded to Leo’s call.

“Yes, Kail.”
