504.

 

Luna crossed her arms and looked at the elves blocking their path with defiant eyes.

 

Runia flinched when she saw Luna’s delinquent appearance with her head slightly tilted.

 

‘Come to think of it, Luna-nim is…’

 

She recalled what had happened in Luna’s World before.

 

Barharlun.

 

The city of the High Elves.

 

There, Runia had conquered the world in the role of an elf princess.

 

‘The attitude of the High Elves I saw back then wasn’t much different from the Pure Blood Society either.’

 

Moreover, Runia clearly remembered how the High Elves had treated Luna at that time.

 

Later, when she entered Dweno’s World, Runia was able to read materials about how the elves had fallen during the Age of Calamity.

 

That’s why she could understand why Luna was showing such a reaction.

 

“What’s the matter?”

 

Runia stepped forward and looked at the Pure Blood Society members.

 

Her distinctive red eyes glowed coldly.

 

Even in current elven society, the perception of the Pure Blood Society wasn’t good.

 

Since Runia also didn’t view this group favorably in normal times, her reaction wasn’t pleasant.

 

However, on the other hand, she knew that there were still many elves who had fallen into pure-blood ideology.

 

That’s why Runia could guess what they had blocked the path for.

 

“Miss Runia El Runda. You are Seirun’s future and a student council president candidate. Have you forgotten that you’re in a position where you must always pay attention to maintaining your dignity?”

 

‘As expected, they came here to spout nonsense.’

 

Runia let out an annoyed sigh.

 

“Another unruly attitude.”

 

“I understand better than anyone that I’m Seirun’s student council president. And I haven’t done anything that would be a blemish, have I?”

 

“The very fact that you’re walking alone through such dirty alleys damages the dignity of elves.”

 

Runia looked up at the sky and muttered, “Wow, this is driving me crazy.”

 

“You shouldn’t use such vulgar language. What’s the reason for associating with such a low-class elf in the first place?”

 

The Pure Blood Society elf who stood at the front frowned as he looked at Luna.

 

“There are rumors going around. That there’s someone in these streets who gets drunk and wanders around disgracing the elves.”

 

“Who exactly?”

 

When Luna crossed her arms and muttered as if curious, the Pure Blood Society elves’ faces contorted.

 

“Isn’t it you?”

 

“Was it?”

 

Luna smiled brightly.

 

“What a disgrace to the elves.”

 

“Runia El Runda. To associate with such an elf. Don’t you feel ashamed?”

 

“Aren’t you ashamed before the name of the Progenitor?”

 

Runia made an expression of disbelief.

 

‘Who are they mentioning the Progenitor of the Starry Skies in front of right now!’

 

They were mentioning the Progenitor right in front of the actual Progenitor of the Starry Skies.

 

And while insulting Luna herself!

 

Runia looked at Luna restlessly.

 

However, Luna was making an amused expression as if she found the current situation quite refreshing.

 

“What’s wrong with Runia now? The Progenitor of the Starry Skies would rather find this kind of Runia even more adorable, wouldn’t she?”

 

Luna giggled and pulled Runia into her embrace.

 

“Eep?!”

 

Runia, whose face was buried in Luna’s embrace, opened her eyes wide and shifted her gaze to look up at Luna.

 

Luna looked down at such Runia and winked with one eye.

 

Runia, who was awkwardly held in Luna’s embrace, took a breath.

 

‘It’s like being in mother’s arms.’

 

Runia, who was making a comfortable expression while feeling warmth, suddenly muttered.

 

‘But she’s surprisingly amazing.’

 

That thought came naturally to her.

 

“What gives you the right to arbitrarily judge the Progenitor’s will?”

 

“This is quite interesting.”

 

Luna smiled brightly as she watched the elf who kept mentioning herself in response to her words.

 

“Runia El Runda. Because you have friendships with humans like Leo Flobe, your relationships are becoming increasingly messy.”

 

However, at the words that followed, Luna’s face, which had been smiling cheerfully, completely changed.

 

Runia, who was held in Luna’s embrace, also made a bewildered expression as she felt the atmosphere suddenly change.

 

“What about Leo?”

 

Thud-

 

Luna, who had released Runia from her embrace, took a step forward.

 

“He’s a thief who carelessly took the elves’ treasure.”

 

“Acting arrogant as if he received the Progenitor’s choice.”

 

“A lowly human who gained fame by exaggerating his achievements.”

 

The Pure Blood Society disparaged Leo.

 

They had no hesitation in trampling on others.

 

‘Certainly, for this type, the truth isn’t important. What matters is just what they want to believe.’

 

Luna curled up the corners of her mouth.

 

She was sickeningly familiar with this type of elf.

 

But being familiar didn’t mean she wasn’t angry.

 

‘Especially insulting Kail is even more unforgivable.’

 

“Who are you spouting such nonsense to right now…!”

 

Runia, who was about to charge at the Pure Blood Society with a fierce expression, suddenly looked at Luna’s face.

 

Luna’s face, which had shown no change in expression when they insulted her, had become cold as ice.

 

The moment Runia flinched.

 

Luna extended her hand.

 

Grab-!

 

“Gack?!”

 

The elf at the very front clutched his throat.

 

His body floated up and was dragged in front of Luna.

 

“Gggack!”

 

“What is this behavior!”

 

“How dare you attack us!”

 

The elves became furious and tried to use magic.

 

At that moment, Luna lightly flicked the finger she was holding.

 

Snap-!

 

Whoosh-!

 

A small wind blew.

 

“No way…!”

 

“Wh-what is this!”

 

“Magic won’t activate?”

 

The Pure Blood Society elves made shocked expressions.

 

They couldn’t use Star Magic.

 

It wasn’t a matter of magic not activating or anything like that.

 

The star mana itself needed to use Star Magic had disappeared.

 

“You won’t be able to use Star Magic from now on.”

 

Luna spoke as if it was nothing special.

 

“Such ridiculous nonsense!”

 

The elf whose throat was caught by Luna’s mana let out an enraged shout.

 

“With ordinary magic, that would be nonsense. But with star magic, it’s possible. Your star magic is incomplete.”

 

The current star magic formula is the star magic that Seirun passed down to later generations.

 

Of course, even that alone demonstrates powerful force.

 

But if there’s a fatal flaw, it’s that since it’s Luna’s unique magic, the star magic Seirun passed down to later generations could only be a minor copy.

 

And even that wasn’t properly completed.

 

If Seirun had had more time, it would have been reborn in perfect form, but unfortunately the Comet Mage didn’t have time.

 

“You know that when using magic through magical formulas, invisible traces are carved into the body, right? They’re the paths through which mana flows. I destroyed those paths.”

 

“That’s impossible…!”

 

“Yeah. Normally it wouldn’t make sense. But I can do it.”

 

“What?!”

 

“Because I’m the creator of this magic.”

 

Luna smiled brightly.

 

The other Pureblood Elves shouted asking what she was talking about.

 

But the face of the elf caught by Luna turned pale.

 

Having twisted ideology doesn’t mean being oblivious or stupid.

 

He finally understood what situation was unfolding.

 

“P-Progenitor…?”

 

Luna, who had dispelled the recognition-inhibiting magic, smiled cruelly.

 

“I’m not particularly benevolent or kind-natured like the stories say. When I’m in a bad mood, I need to punish someone to feel better.”

 

With an expressionless face, Luna pushed away the Pureblood Elf.

 

“Kugh!”

 

Rolling on the ground, he hurriedly bowed his head.

 

“P-Progenitor of the Starry Skies! Please forgive me for speaking blasphemy to you!”

 

Watching him tremble and shout in terror, the Pureblood members who had followed him also sensed something was wrong.

 

“I didn’t create this magic for kids like you to learn. I certainly never told you to use this magic to divide elves into classes.”

 

Luna said coldly.

 

“Most importantly. I absolutely cannot tolerate insulting that guy.”

 

Luna turned her head.

 

“You’ll never be able to use star magic for the rest of your lives.”

 

“P-Progenitor!”

 

Luna snorted and snapped her fingers again.

 

With that, their movements stopped.

 

“What did you do to them?”

 

Runia hurriedly approached Luna and asked.

 

“I erased their memories of the situation until just now.”

 

Watching Luna answer as if it was nothing, Runia looked back with a surprised expression.

 

Indeed, the Pureblood members who had picked a fight with Luna were looking around in confusion, not understanding what happened.

 

Despite such a commotion, the surroundings were also quiet.

 

She had controlled the area with magic.

 

“Amazing.”

 

“Risinass or Dweno would have scolded me if they knew. Well, those guys aren’t here now.”

 

Luna smiled bitterly.

 

Watching such Luna, Runia made an apologetic expression.

 

“I’m sorry for showing you such a sight.”

 

“It has nothing to do with you. I know well that such behavior is an elf racial trait.”

 

Luna shrugged as if she didn’t care.

 

“Well then, since my mood is sour, shall we go cheer up?”

 

“Yes! Where should we start?”

 

“For cheering up, spending money is the best.”

 

***

 

The place Luna and Runia headed to was Kurazhu Street.

 

Befitting the Twilight Festival, Kurazhu Street was also experiencing a boom and bustling with activity.

 

Impromptu auctions were in full swing throughout the street.

 

Tourists intoxicated by the festival atmosphere actively participated in auctions to buy good souvenirs.

 

Not only business and auctions, but street performances were also in full swing.

 

Luna reached for the alcohol sold on the street again today.

 

With a drink in one hand, as Luna strolled through the street, a street where storytellers had gathered appeared before her.

 

Among them, stories about the great heroes were overwhelmingly numerous.

 

“Now! Then! Who was the man that Luna, Progenitor of the Starry Skies, loved!”

 

At the voice heard then, Runia perked up her ears.

 

“It was the Divine Blacksmith! Dweno!”

 

At that exclamation, Runia burst into laughter and looked at Luna’s face.

 

Luna’s face had turned menacing.

 

Seeing Luna’s face like that, Runia covered her mouth.

 

“How were things with Dweno?”

 

“You saw Dweno directly, didn’t you?”

 

“Yes. I met him in the Heroes’ World.”

 

“He asked you to be a nude model, right?”

 

“…Yes.”

 

“Do you think I’d like such a pervert?!”

 

Watching Luna scrunch up her face, Runia scratched her cheek.

 

“Then weren’t there any great heroes who loved each other?”

 

“Yeah. There were no couples. Of course, there were those who had feelings for someone.”

 

“R-really?”

 

Runia’s eyes widened.

 

“Of course.”

 

“W-which person had feelings for which person?”

 

Runia asked, swallowing dry saliva.

 

Luna, who had been watching such Runia, emptied the contents of her drink completely, then smiled and said.

 

“Kail loved me.”

 

“What?”

 

“He loved me very passionately.”

 

Luna casually said something that would have made Leo kick her butt if he had heard it.

 

Ah- Luna grabbed her head and let out a sigh as if she couldn’t help it.

 

“How ardently he loved and courted me. He always looked at me with burning eyes.”

 

“…When I met him directly, I thought he was a cold person, but that’s unexpected.”

 

Runia recalled Hero of the Beginning Kail, whom she had briefly met in Dweno’s World.

 

He had somehow given a dry impression.

 

Watching such Runia, Luna said.

 

“Yeah. He was that kind of person. But it’s true that Kail loved me. By the way, this must be kept absolutely secret. Especially from Leo.”

 

“Ah, yes. But why keep it secret from Leo specifically…?”

 

“Because it’s a secret.”

 

Covering her lips with her index finger, Luna smiled mischievously.

 

As Runia nodded reflexively at that smile, Luna grabbed passing people and said.

 

“Do you know?! That Hero of the Beginning Kail liked Luna, Progenitor of the Starry Skies!”

 

Watching Luna act exactly like a drunkard with a straight face, Runia made a serious expression.

 

‘It doesn’t seem to be much of a secret?’

 

“Come, come! Everyone! Let me introduce you to a mysterious potion! Its name is Love Potion!”

 

At the familiar-named item heard from the street auction, Luna narrowed her eyes and Runia made an incredulous expression.

 

Anyone with magical knowledge knows well how ridiculous an item called a love potion is.

 

As expected, jeers poured out from here and there, and the auction host said.

 

“I can’t reveal the exact source of this potion, but let’s just consider it a gamble and try buying it once! You never know if love might actually come true, right?”

 

However, the auctioneer shamelessly continued the proceedings.

 

In fact, such ridiculous items occasionally appear at these kinds of auctions.

 

Since it’s a festival, amusing items come up just for fun.

 

The love potion put up for auction was contained in a beautiful bottle.

 

The golden elixir that emitted a beautiful glow seemed to have enough value as a decorative piece by itself.

 

With the liquid itself looking like a work of art, several young couples who were caught up in the festival atmosphere showed interest and participated in the auction.

 

“All sorts of things come up.”

 

It was when Runia let out a hollow laugh.

 

“That potion.”

 

“Yes?”

 

“It looks somewhat similar to a potion made by some pervert? Let’s buy it to check it out.”

 

“Ah, yes.”

 

With a bewildered expression, Runia participated in the auction.

 

Even while staring directly at the love potion, Luna let out a hollow laugh.

 

‘No way, it can’t be.’
