520.
After Hallind’s special Hero Studies class ended, the 2nd year students couldn’t help but be shocked.
‘If anyone had heard this class, not just 2nd years but anyone who dreams of becoming a hero would find this story shocking.’
It was when Leo was muttering to himself while looking around at the students with serious expressions.
“I can’t believe it.”
Chelsea muttered with a dazed face.
“To think that records written in Hero Record were erased.”
“It doesn’t seem like a simple problem.”
Eiran also muttered with a serious face.
“Even though revival as Undead was confirmed, they said the Iron-Blooded Mage, Tiar-nim’s record wasn’t erased.”
“Conversely, in the case of the Underworld Knight Tamus, revival as Undead wasn’t confirmed, but they said it was erased.”
Chen Xia also continued the conversation with a puzzled expression.
‘I was the one who put Tiar to rest and erased Tamus’s record though.’
Mel was restricting information about Leo’s activities during his last dispatch.
‘The current fame is enough. Rather, greater fame might become an obstacle.’
Unprecedented all-class, youngest student council president, youngest Hero Record registration.
Leo was already a hero that the entire world was paying attention to.
Leo was an existence that could instantly change the order and landscape of the trapped world.
When such a person reveals themselves, the reaction from those holding the world’s order is one of two things.
Follow, or rebel.
And no matter how unprecedented an all-class hero registered in Hero Record, to existing heroes Leo was still just a greenhorn.
‘There’s no law saying there won’t be guys who would harm me if persuasion doesn’t work, like with Justice Guild.’
It was when Leo let out a light sigh.
“Hey, Leo. Don’t you have some connection with the Iron-Blooded Mage and Underworld Knight? Did you… erase the Hero Record entries?”
At Cal’s words, the three girls who had been talking among themselves looked at Leo.
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Everyone made shocked expressions at Leo’s answer.
“Really, you always transcend common sense, don’t you? Ah, being a Great Hero is already beyond common sense, isn’t it?”
Cal clicked his tongue.
“Then did Leo oppa delete all the other heroes’ records too? Huh? Huh? Is that it?!”
“Amazing! Leo-doryeong!”
“Come to think of it… the Book of Shadows was also completed when Leo-doryeong touched it, wasn’t it?”
“Wait? Then you’re saying Hero Record entries are also possible?”
“That’s right.”
“How is that possible?”
Excited Chelsea asked while hopping up and down in front of Leo.
Patting such Chelsea’s head, Leo said.
“Hero Record originally belongs to me.”
“What?”
“Originally yours?!”
Everyone made expressions filled with shock.
“Yeah. I have recording and erasure authority because of that. Plus I can receive other rewards too.”
“Being able to bring other Great Heroes out of Hero Record was also possible because Leo-nim is the owner of Hero Record!”
“That’s right.”
Everyone let out exclamations.
“Now the puzzle pieces are fitting together.”
Chen Xia nodded her head.
Seeing that, Cal let out a ‘Hoo?’ exclamation and stroked his chin.
“What strange thought are you having now?”
When Chelsea narrowed her eyes and asked pointedly, Cal answered.
“I’m seriously thinking about whether we should make a religion based on Leo these days.”
“A religion that worships Leo-nim?”
Eiran perked up her ears and showed interest.
“Yeah. The name would be Leoism.”
“That sucks.”
Chelsea scrunched up her face without a moment’s hesitation.
“Hey, what if you say the name sucks right in front of Leo himself?”
“I said your idea sucks, not Leo oppa’s name.”
“Why? It’s a real chance to make tons of money!”
“If you keep using a Great Hero as a money-making scheme, you’ll receive divine punishment, won’t you?”
Chelsea snorted.
Watching that and bursting into laughter, Chen Xia asked.
“Then was Runia-yang’s name being added to Hero Record this time also done by Leo-doryeong?”
Currently Runia was also making a stir in society thanks to receiving the title ‘One Who Chases Seongwun’s Trail’.
“No. Luna recorded that.”
“Luna-nim did?”
“Yeah. It seems like others besides me also have recording and erasure authority.”
“Just how is such a thing possible?”
“According to what God said, it was a gift given to me, not the original world. Looking at the circumstances, it seems like it was precisely a gift given to the Great Heroes though.”
“Now even an actual God appears after all this?”
At words that far transcended imagination, Cal shook his head back and forth.
“Anyway, they’re calling a hero assembly regarding Hero Record matters. If big shots are visiting, the Academy will be quite noisy, won’t it?”
“It has to be. There will be quite a lot of very anxious heroes, right?”
Chelsea snorted.
Hallind didn’t view all heroes positively in his special class.
But having such feelings wasn’t limited to just Hallind.
There were plenty of people who looked at heroes with unfavorable eyes.
“There are plenty of people who enjoy ‘indulgence’ for the reason of being heroes.”
Chen Xia smiled coldly.
Unlike usual, her eyes were chilly.
“Well, if Leo has erasure authority, then meetings and everything are all meaningless, aren’t they?”
Cal muttered carefreely with his clasped hands behind his head.
“I wonder. Taking this opportunity to clean up all those I think are unqualified doesn’t seem bad either.”
At Leo’s words, the four people’s movements stopped with a snap!
Cal, Chelsea, Chen Xia, Eiran.
All four were hero candidates.
And they could imagine without thinking how severe the aftermath would be when countless heroes had their qualifications stripped.
Even if it was necessary work, great chaos would come immediately.
Seeing the four looking at him with stiff faces, Leo smiled faintly.
“It’s a joke.”
“It’s a joke, right? You startled me!”
Eiran smiled brightly.
‘That definitely didn’t seem like a joke though.’
‘If it’s Leo oppa, he’d do that and more if things went wrong.’
‘Should I request shadow dispatch to Aba Mama and the Shadow Lords? There might be heroes among those stripped of qualifications who could cause riots.’
But the other three knew Leo was someone who would do exactly that.
It was when the five were heading toward the dormitory.
Crackle-!
A rift suddenly began forming right in front of Leo.
At that, Leo stopped walking.
‘What?’
Leo narrowed his eyes.
At that moment-!
Flash-!
A massive spatial distortion occurred before Leo’s eyes.
Seeing this, Chen Xia gasped and stepped forward in front of Leo.
“Spatial distortion?! Could this be a Hero Dungeon?”
“Wait! There’s no Hero Record fragment or anything here!”
“Let’s back away for now! Before we get sucked in!”
Chelsea, Cal, and Eiran cried out in alarm.
Leo, who had been staring at it intently, said.
“Calm down for now. It seems fine.”
“What?”
“It does seem to be a Hero Dungeon, but… it’s stabilized.”
Leo soothingly patted the shoulder of Chen Xia, who had stepped forward as if to protect him.
Chen Xia’s tense posture relaxed.
Standing before the entrance to the Hero Dungeon, Leo narrowed his eyes and said.
“Go get the professors for now.”
***
Due to the sudden situation, rumors had spread throughout all of Lumern.
The five people who were the first discoverers had headed to the Tower of Heroes to explain the situation.
The Hero Dungeon was being controlled by professors in preparation for any emergency.
However, even after a day had passed, there were no particular signs from the Hero Dungeon.
The students’ curiosity grew even more, but since their duties as students came first, everyone had entered their classes.
“No, this whole ‘student duties first’ thing is ridiculous.”
At the 2nd Year Knight Academy training ground, Iliana pouted her lips.
“Self-study after such an exciting incident happened is not right! The professor isn’t even here!”
“It’s not self-study, Student Iliana. Today we have sparring training for the first time in a while.”
Vice Professor Claria, Ain’s associate, said with a gentle smile.
“By the way, Miss Iliana, I heard you’ve been doing magic research with Professor Ren together with students from the Department of Magic recently?”
“Th-that’s…”
“After shouting so much about the Knight Academy, are you ultimately betraying your department?”
“Awww!”
Iliana made a tearful face and sent pleading looks here and there for help.
But most students turned away.
‘Leo! Save me!’
Iliana looked for Leo who could save her in this situation, but unfortunately Leo was scheduled to be late for class today.
Just as Iliana was about to cry while looking at Claria who had approached right in front of her.
“Hah-! This place is still the same.”
At the voice from the entrance, Claria frowned and turned her head.
“You are…”
“It’s been a while, Claria. Still beautiful as ever.”
“Sir Kaoidin.”
Claria narrowed her eyes.
“Kaoidin? Crimson Lightning Kaoidin Kurken?”
“That person came?”
“But that person is definitely…”
Among the 2nd Year Knight Academy students murmuring upon hearing his name, one student swallowed their words.
“Hmm? Junior. What were you trying to say?”
Kaoidin smiled and approached that student, reaching out his hand.
Grab-!
“Gack?!”
The male student’s body floated in the air.
“If you’re from the Knight Academy, you should speak confidently to the end.”
Looking at Kaoidin who was sneering, Claria said coldly.
“Let go of that hand, Sir Kaoidin.”
“Claria, if it’s your request, I should listen.”
Kaoidin released his hand with a kind smile.
“Cough! Gasp! Gasp!”
“Sven. Are you alright?”
Chen Xia approached and supported her classmate.
Looking at Chen Xia, Kaoidin exclaimed in admiration, then muttered quietly.
“Skills pass, character pass, looks pass, but it’s a shame she’s a Shadow.”
Chen Xia ignored Kaoidin who clicked his tongue.
Claria stood in front of Kaoidin as if protecting Chen Xia.
“What brings you to Lumern?”
“This is my alma mater, did I come somewhere I shouldn’t? Besides, I need to clear my great-grandfather’s unjust accusations.”
Kaoidin Kurken.
A knight-class Hero whose name was recorded in the Hero Record.
An archer who handled bows and had the alias ‘Crimson Lightning’.
And he was also a man who was Ain’s classmate during their school days.
‘And the great-grandson of Metelar Kurken, who was resurrected as an Undead and invaded not long ago.’
“Claria, are you still planning to rot away playing the role of Ain’s associate professor? How about finally joining my Valkyries?”
Kaoidin pointed toward the entrance of the training ground.
There were twenty knights there.
All were knights composed of women with outstanding appearance and skills.
“I like my position as Professor Ain’s associate.”
Claria said coldly.
“It would be better to come to me before that beauty withers, wouldn’t it? Or what? After denying it, are you ultimately in that kind of relationship with Ain?”
At Kaoidin’s words, when a chilling murderous intent formed in Claria’s eyes.
“Please don’t insult Vice Professor Claria.”
Chen Xia stood in front of Claria with a gentle smile.
“Didn’t Ain teach you not to interrupt when adults are talking? Or do you not know chivalry because you’re a Shadow? Then you’d be disqualified as a Shadow too, wouldn’t you? You shouldn’t interrupt when a Hero is speaking, right?”
“The Dragon Lord declared that Heroes and Shadows are equal beings.”
“No matter how great the Dragon Lord is, traditions that have continued for thousands of years can’t be changed overnight.”
Kaoidin sneered.
“Or what? Do you want to get my attention? Even if I can’t accept you as a Valkyrie, well, as a guard wouldn’t be bad. Being a Shadow, you’d be useful at night too, right?”
Kaoidin’s eyes scanned Chen Xia’s face and body.
Seeing this, Claria lost her reason.
“You damn bastard! Right now to my student…!”
“Sorry, what can I do? I already have a lord to whom I’ve devoted my body and heart. Even if I didn’t, I’d refuse a bug like you.”
Chen Xia said with a bright smile.
At that moment, Kaoidin’s eyes changed completely.
Crash-!
Kaoidin kicked Chen Xia’s stomach without hesitation.
Crackle! Whoosh-!
Along with that, two longswords crossed and touched his neck.
“Ha, why are kids these days so rude? Didn’t you learn to show respect to your senior?”
Kaoidin looked at Selia and Duran who pointed their swords at him with murderous eyes.
It was then.
“Then didn’t your parents teach you?”
Thud- thud-
Clack-
Leo stood at the Training Ground entrance, looking at Kaoidin with cold eyes.
“If you want to be treated like a human, then act like a human instead of acting like a dog.”
