448.
Two Great Heroes and one Hero gathered to subjugate a fragment of Erebos.
And six Hero candidates charged toward Erebos.
Arron, who was at the very front, ran through the sky.
“He’s incredibly fast.”
Torua, riding on his staff, exclaimed in admiration.
Runia, who was riding in front of Torua, said.
“It’s Arron-nim after all! But why do I have to travel riding on Torua-san’s staff?”
“It can’t be helped. Your friend is moving together with our school’s Summoning Department junior. And Riennia is flying together with Ulta.”
“That’s not what I meant, I can sufficiently manage without Torua-san’s help…”
“You wouldn’t be able to keep up, would you? You’re a firepower idiot specialized in firepower.”
“Firepower idiot?! I’m sufficiently good at other magic too, you know?”
“Yeah. But not as much as me, right?”
“Kugh?”
Torua grinned as he watched Runia clench her fists while looking ahead, showing her frustration, then blew wind into her ear.
“Whoo-!”
Runia covered her ears and protested with a bright red face.
“Wh-what are you doing?”
“You seemed nervous.”
“I wasn’t!”
Torua giggled and said.
“It seems like you want to be helpful somehow, but you just need to focus on attacking. Arron-nim probably wanted that when he let you join the party.”
“…Yes.”
While answering, she looked at Leo who was at the front of the party with a slightly frustrated expression.
‘Am I still not able to stand by his side?’
Runia knew it too.
The same went for Eiran and Eliza.
‘Except for Leo, we 2nd years are still insufficient to join this party.’
Even Torua, Ulta, and Riennia were insufficient to be with Arron and Mellina.
But the three graduates could at least provide support for Arron and Mellina.
The reason Runia, Eiran, and Eliza, who couldn’t even provide support, were chosen by Arron was because of one magic.
“You completed the Salt Emperor? Amazing! If Luna had known this fact, she would have been truly delighted.”
During the training camp.
Upon hearing Runia’s words that she had completed the star magic Salt Emperor, Arron was genuinely moved.
Runia was flustered, wondering if that was something for Arron to be moved about.
“Isn’t the Salt Emperor magic that Luna-nim created to counter Erebos’s flames?”
“That’s right.”
The incomplete magic Salt Emperor that Luna left behind.
Though Runia had completed that magic, she actually didn’t know much about the magic called [Salt Emperor].
All she knew was that Leo had taught her the magic formula recorded in Luna’s grimoire stored in the Shan Empire, and that it was magic Luna couldn’t complete during her lifetime.
Runia well understood what the unextinguishable white flames that Luna wanted to create meant.
“You wanted to defeat Erebos with this magic, didn’t you?”
Thinking that Luna couldn’t fulfill that intention in the end, she thought she should complete this magic.
“Yeah. But there was a greater meaning to it.”
“What kind?”
“There are five magics that Luna wanted to create with special feelings.”
At Arron’s words, Runia and Eiran perked up their ears.
No matter what anyone said, Luna was the great Progenitor of the Starry Skies that the Elves most respected and loved.
Since stories about Luna were coming from Arron, who was Luna’s companion and friend, they couldn’t help but focus.
“One is magic that makes flowers bloom. That’s magic containing everything of Luna, the magic Luna was most proud of.”
“I know.”
“It’s the textbook of star magic.”
Both Runia and Eiran knew that fact well.
“The second is Stella Radius.”
“Ah…”
“The magic that defeated Jerdiak.”
“That magic is Luna herself. It’s magic she created while thinking of herself shining brightly like a star.”
The brilliant starlight flash that was Luna’s unique magic.
It was the very symbol of Luna that couldn’t be contained even in Leo’s Bible.
“The third is Terminus.”
It was magic that still held its reputation as the world’s strongest magic.
“Luna had a personality where she had to thoroughly destroy everything that stood in her way to be satisfied, so she created this magic…”
“Arron-nim. You don’t need to say the rest.”
Runia said urgently.
Runia didn’t want the Luna in her imagination to be ruined any further.
But the reactions around her were different.
“Ooh! Indeed, she had a similar personality to this bad-tempered pointy-ears!”
“Do you want to die! Stupid cat!”
Watching the commotion unfold, Arron laughed joyfully.
“You look happy.”
At Driana’s question, Arron nodded.
“I was wondering if others would have seen us like this.”
At that answer, everyone except Leo widened their eyes.
“Did the Great Heroes also act like this with each other every day?”
“No way, surely not.”
“It doesn’t seem like it somehow.”
Runia, Ar, and Driana whispered among themselves.
“It would have been interesting.”
When Cal said this while putting his clasped hands behind his back, Arron nodded.
“It was interesting.”
Watching Arron smile wistfully, Eiran asked.
“What’s the fourth magic with special feelings?”
“It’s magic called Innocent.”
“Innocent?”
“Isn’t that magic that Kail-nim used?”
At Arron’s words, everyone recalled Kail, whom they had briefly met in Dweno’s World before.
“Yeah. It’s magic Luna created for Kail.”
“It certainly was beautiful magic.”
Runia smiled brightly.
Hearing Arron’s story, Leo recalled that time.
‘Ahem! Kail.’
‘What?’
‘Come sit here. I’ve created a magic for you.’
‘It’s probably another useless magic anyway. I don’t need it.’
‘What’s wrong with flower-blooming magic!’
Watching Luna glare and growl, Kail sighed softly and sat in front of Luna.
‘What kind of magic is it.’
‘It’s magic I created utilizing your mana attribute. The magic’s name is Innocent.’
‘Didn’t you say before that purity and I don’t match at all.’
‘Yeah. It doesn’t match. But Dweno said that in some ways, you’re so pure that you’re like an idiot. I got inspiration from that.’
‘Want to get roughed up by a pure idiot? You damn elf.’
“Ugh, let go of me!”
Luna struggled as she watched Kail pinch her cheeks with his hands and pull them left and right.
She tried to counterattack in frustration, but Kail’s arms were much longer, so she had no choice but to continue being teased.
Leo smiled bitterly as he recalled the past, and Arron also burst into laughter as if remembering that time.
Then Eiran asked with an extremely excited expression.
“But if Luna put special feelings into the magic she passed on to Kail… could it be that Luna had feelings for Kail… something like that?”
Eiran couldn’t contain herself, covering both cheeks with her hands and perking up her ears as if just imagining it made her feel good.
“Eiran certainly has a rich imagination.”
“Indeed.”
Runia and Arga burst into snickers.
At their reaction, Driana said.
“Rather than being cranky like you guys, Eiran seems to have an extremely girlish side, doesn’t she?”
At Driana’s words, Runia and Arga rolled their eyes, and Cal clicked his tongue and said.
“You’re also a girl of that age, you know? You’re the most abnormal one, you pervert.”
Watching the four bicker, Arron shook his head.
“Luna didn’t have those kinds of feelings for Kail. The two of them were always fighting.”
“I see.”
“They’re really just like us.”
The others made expressions that said ‘of course,’ and Eiran was disappointed, drooping her ears.
“So the fifth magic is Flame Emperor.”
“Yeah.”
Arron nodded at Runia’s question.
“Flame Emperor is magic that Luna developed to block the black flames.”
“To block them?”
“Yeah. Since Dweno and I stood at the frontline to fight. She created that magic to protect us.”
Arron smiled bitterly.
“She said she couldn’t tolerate anyone dying, so she created that magic.”
And in the end, it remained incomplete.
‘If Flame Emperor had been completed, fate might have changed.’
Leo sighed bitterly to himself.
He recalled Luna’s appearance, sobbing and blaming herself in front of Arron and Dweno’s deaths.
For Arron, it would have been fortunate.
‘Arron would have collapsed at Luna’s screams.’
Hearing Arron’s words, Runia made a solemn expression.
She never imagined that the magic passed down to her after 5000 years was created with such feelings.
***
‘I must fulfill Luna’s will.’
Now Runia knows too.
Arron fell first, then Dweno fell next.
Third, Luna followed her friends.
Runia couldn’t even imagine what Luna’s feelings were at that time.
‘Though I may be lacking… I must protect everyone with Luna’s magic.’
Runia steeled her resolve.
Meanwhile.
They had already reached close to Erebos.
Whoosh—!
Flames erupted from Erebos’s body.
At that moment.
Flash—!
Arron stepped forward powerfully.
In that instant, Arron transformed, wrapping his entire body in golden aura.
“Graaaaaaah!”
Arron’s roar echoed once again.
The powerful howling instilled courage in the party members’ hearts.
As Arron drew his sword, golden aura concentrated at the sword’s tip.
Along with that, Arron became a golden flash and charged toward Erebos.
Swoooosh—!
“Kuooooooh!”
The hero’s sword slashed across Erebos’s chest.
Arron, who landed on the ground, flashed his eyes.
“Mellina!”
At Arron’s shout, Mellina grabbed Leo’s hand and quickly flew high into the sky.
The moment they reached high in the sky.
Mellina brought her hands together.
Whooom—!
A massive magic circle was generated.
The surrounding atmosphere rippled with unimaginable magical power.
“That’s tremendous magical power… what kind of magic is that?”
As Runia asked while preparing to attack, Torua, who was chanting spells, glanced at the sky and answered.
“Disaster, Dragon of Cataclysm. It’s Rodia’s unique magic.”
Great magic that dominates the surrounding nature.
Whooooooosh! Kraaaash—!
A massive typhoon engulfed Erebos.
Seeing that, Eliza muttered.
“It’s a perfect superior version of Avad’s Tempest.”
“It has to be. If Avad’s Tempest is magic that causes natural disasters, that magic dominates natural disasters.”
It’s literally great magic that belongs to the strongest natural magic.
Kraaaash—!
Grooooooh!
Erebos struggled not to be swept away by the massive typhoon.
But while Disaster blocked Erebos’s movements, it couldn’t deal significant damage.
Mellina smiled slightly at that sight.
‘It’s fine. This is enough.’
Mellina’s role was only to keep Erebos tied to that spot.
“Leo.”
Mellina called Leo.
“Risinass’s magic.”
At those words, Leo raised his hand.
“Larel.”
Flash—!
The great spirit of light, Larel, was summoned to Leo’s hand.
As Leo activated his spiritual power, just like the Luminous, the Spirit of Radiance did long ago.
The spirit of radiance transformed into a bow of light.
Leo grasped the bow of light and pulled back the bowstring.
Whooom—!
An arrow appeared at the end of that bowstring.
Seeing that sight, Mellina smiled brightly.
‘Long ago, the light that the King of Wisdom shot up to drive away the corrupt and evil things.’
Leo spoke that name.
“Punishment.”
Flash-!
KWAAAAAAAANG-!
The arrow of light struck Erebos, causing a massive explosion.
Kwagagaga-!
The typhoon that had been holding Erebos vanished without a trace.
In the midst of the giant crater that formed, black magma was scattered in all directions.
Leo narrowed his eyes at the sight.
Tremendous power.
But not only Leo and Arron, but even Mellina couldn’t understand the current situation.
“It seems… too weak?”
Leo clicked his tongue at Mellina’s muttering.
“That’s right.”
“Pardon?”
“It’s true that his seal has been broken, but his consciousness hasn’t awakened yet. He’s just wielding power according to his instincts.”
“That means…”
Mellina’s expression hardened at Leo’s words.
“Right. It hasn’t even started yet.”
The magma writhed and transformed into the shape of Erebos’s face.
The moment Arron saw this and raised his sword.
Flash-!
In an instant, Erebos’s eyes opened.
Arron’s face stiffened as their eyes met.
-Hehehehe.
A mocking laugh flowed from Erebos’s mouth.
-Is this the gods’ pathetic shallow miracle?
Kuooooo-!
The atmosphere around them completely changed.
Whoooosh-!
Erebos’s body burst into flames again.
Kugugung-!
Emanating an incomparable sense of intimidation from before, Erebos sneered at Arron.
-Are you prepared to watch the world burn once more? Ghost of the past.
