623.
The moment Leo realized he had entered the Heroes’ World, his eyes snapped wide open.
Leo surveyed his surroundings.
‘A simple tent, I see.’
The place where Leo opened his eyes was a tent mainly used in field operations.
Leo, who had risen from the bedding in one corner of the fairly spacious tent, approached a small mirror on one side.
Pure white hair and red eyes.
‘This isn’t a possession-type world.’
Leo clenched and unclenched his hands.
‘No, does such a concept even exist in the first place?’
Leo’s face hardened as he recalled the message from earlier.
‘Legion Record, and Silatuna’s world.’
No matter who looked at it, what it meant was clear.
‘Tartaros also has something like Hero Record.’
The world had been saved once through the awakening of Hero Record.
But if Tartaros also possessed such a thing?
‘They would be able to inherit not only the power of the mighty Demons of the past, but also the strength of the legion commanders.’
Perhaps the balance that had been barely maintained could collapse in an instant.
Leo’s mind raced at high speed.
‘It wouldn’t be something that originally existed. If it was something that originally existed, the Overlord King wouldn’t have been racking his brains trying to nurture new legion commanders in the first place.’
No, if they could have grown stronger with this kind of power from the beginning, they would have instantly created powerful forces and destroyed the world.
‘This level of power would be capable of destroying the world even without Erebos.’
Leo, whose face had hardened, thought about the origin of this thing called Legion Record.
‘The Overlord King definitely possessed a fragment of Erebos. Did he create this using that power?’
Leo, who had been thinking this way, soon shook his head.
‘No, even for Erebos, creating something like this would be impossible.’
The Gods looked at Hero Record and named it the Record System.
‘Erebos, that bastard was said to be an existence equal to the Gods. Then it wouldn’t be strange for him to possess the knowledge that the Gods have.’
Erebos would have had the knowledge to create his own Record System.
But having knowledge doesn’t mean you can create everything.
Hero Record is the essence of the Gods, created by pouring all their power into it.
‘No matter how powerful Erebos… that bastard might be, it’s impossible to implement something created by all the Gods combining their power using only his own strength.’
No matter how much Gods have the ability to perform miracles, there are limits.
‘Moreover, the power the Overlord King possesses is merely a fragment of Erebos.’
It would be impossible to implement such authority with Erebos’s power that was merely a fragment, not even in its complete state.
‘Then there’s only one answer.’
Leo’s eyes narrowed.
‘They modified the existing Hero Record to suit their tastes.’
The result would be Silatuna’s world.
Hero Record itself had been corrupted by Erebos’s power.
While there were more worlds untouched by Erebos’s power, some worlds had been consumed by Erebos’s influence.
This page would also be one of those pages.
Leo organized the information he had obtained through the message.
‘The master of the world is Silatuna. And the time period is the prologue. The location is Monster Forest.’
Monster Forest.
Originally the land of the Elves and Luna’s homeland.
Then…
“Was this page originally Luna’s World?”
Leo’s eyes turned cold.
Leo felt anger at the fact that Luna’s page had been corrupted and become Silatuna’s page.
Crack-
The moment Leo gritted his teeth.
[System Error: An unauthorized entity has invaded the world.]
A new message appeared before his eyes.
‘Unauthorized entity? Are they talking about me?’
Leo fell into contemplation.
‘If this world is implemented in the same way as Hero Record… I should have entered as a Demon, demon beast, or monster from Tartaros’s side.’
Leo glanced around the interior of the tent.
What was before his eyes were items used by Elves from the era 5,000 years ago.
No matter who looked at it, Leo had entered the Heroes’ World from Luna’s perspective as usual.
Swoosh-
Leo stepped outside the tent.
He could see the ashen sky that symbolized the Age of Despair.
Around him, countless Elves were coming and going.
Seeing this, Leo muttered.
‘As expected, this Heroes’ World… No. It would be more accurate to call it Legion World. In this Legion World, I seem to be an error.’
‘Do I need to prevent those Tartaros bastards from conquering this world?’
Leo was pondering when.
“Ah, you’re awake. Luna!”
‘Luna?’
An Elf young man holding a spear in one hand and a gleaming shield in the other was calling out to Luna.
At this, Leo unconsciously looked around to find Luna.
Luna in the Heroes’ World had definitely inherited her previous memories.
Then would Luna in this world also remember what happened outside?
‘What should I tell her?’
He recalled the time when he had parted with Luna before.
Luna at that time was in a spirit state, not an entity implemented by Hero Record.
‘Will she remember that time?’
Leo’s eyes wavered slightly when.
The Elf young man who had been calling Luna approached Leo.
“Luna! Movement from the Monster Queen has been detected in the deepest part of the forest!”
At those words, Leo showed a startled expression.
“Luna?”
“Yes?”
“I’m Luna?”
“…”
At Leo’s words, the Elf young man covered his face with his hands.
“Luna. Today is a very important battle that could decide the reclamation of the forest! To think you drank excessively even the night before such a battle!”
Looking at the Elf young man who seemed about to cry, Leo reflected himself in the shield held in the young man’s hand.
No matter how he looked at it, it was Leo Flobe’s face.
“What’s going on?”
“Akint… The thing is, Luna…”
Then someone’s voice was heard.
Leo looked toward where the voice came from.
There, a familiar figure was approaching Leo.
Akint Rubesa.
Luna’s magic teacher and someone like a benefactor to her.
He was also the person Leo had possessed in Luna’s world before.
“Luna, did you drink again?”
Akint asked while taking a deep breath.
Watching this scene, Leo thought.
‘It seems… the people in this world see me as Luna.’
And Leo understood exactly what point in time this was.
‘This is right before Luna joined the subjugation force.’
The time when he and Risinass had come to subdue Jormungandr and recruit Luna.
The time when the elves had joined forces to attack the Monster Forest to reclaim their stolen homeland.
‘The elves were defeated in this battle.’
He looked at Akint.
‘And this person died here.’
***
Roooar! Whoooosh-!
Ris looked up at the Gigantes that was bringing down a massive fireball toward him.
“What are you doing! That’s Hell Fire! Dodge it!”
Avad shouted urgently.
Looking back at Avad, Ris said.
“Avad, prepare your magic.”
After leaving those brief words, Ris swung his sword upward toward the Gigantes that was burning crimson flames before his eyes.
Whoooosh! Craaaash-!
Ris’s flame aura, which collided with Hell Fire—the most destructively powerful among fire magic—surprisingly pushed back the Hell Fire and devoured the Gigantes’ arm.
Graaaah!
The Gigantes let out a scream filled with pain, clutching its arm that had turned to ash.
‘He blew away even the defensive magic in one go?’
Avad released the spell he had been preparing with admiration.
When Avad, who had been accumulating dozens of wind spells through silent casting, released the magic, a storm instantly struck.
The terrifying thing was that the winds of that storm were like blades.
Slaaaash-!
Graaaaaaah-!
When the large-scale magic Avad created by pouring out his mana was released all at once, its explosive power was beyond imagination.
Thud thud thud-
The Gigantes instantly became pieces of flesh and blood that rained down from the sky.
Thump-! Splash-!
The Gigantes’ head crashed into a pool of blood, instantly creating waves of blood.
Despite its miserable state with all its body except the head torn to pieces, the Gigantes was still alive.
It was when Ris approached with a cold face to finish off the Gigantes.
“Pathetic.”
A cold voice was heard.
Ris stopped walking.
“Despite obtaining a powerful beast’s body as a raid reward, you were defeated by a brat who couldn’t even reach the rank of Hero?”
“A skeleton?”
A skull revealed itself next to the Gigantes.
The skull’s body glowed brightly and soon transformed into the appearance of a dwarf.
Avad’s expression hardened upon confirming that face.
“The Saint of Regeneration?”
The Saint of Regeneration was a hero from long ago.
Evaluated as having the most powerful healing ability in the history of the Age of Heroes, he was renowned for his ability to heal any wound as long as one didn’t die.
Joroa used the Saint of Regeneration’s ability to heal the Gigantes.
Rummmble-!
The Gigantes, instantly restored to its original form, rose to its feet.
Seeing this, Ris opened his mouth.
“A Hero Slayer?”
At those words, Joroa glanced at Ris.
“Ris Jerdinger. And…”
Craaaash-!
A powerful wind struck and tore Joroa apart.
“Silent casting?”
Greed flashed in Joroa’s eyes.
“Indeed, are you Rwallin’s successor? Excellent ability. I’d like to hunt you right now if I could, but…”
Joroa’s gaze turned to the sky.
“Right now, there’s something I need to deal with first.”
Joroa’s killing intent directed toward the sky.
“Raina Jerdinger. I’ll make you regret giving birth to Leo Flobe.”
‘Aunt is the target!’
The moment Ris realized where Joroa’s killing intent was directed and tried to attack Joroa.
Craaaash-!
The Gigantes’ heavy arm struck down on Ris.
Thwack-!
Ris’s sword cleanly cut off the Gigantes’ foot.
Gussssh-!
Blood poured down.
Ris, who instantly evaporated the blood with flames, tried to stop Joroa, but it was too late.
Joroa was already charging toward the Pegasus in the sky.
“Ulta!”
Ris shouted urgently.
His voice filled with aura echoed throughout the entire Flobe Estate.
Hearing that cry, Ulta flinched, then quickly noticed Joroa’s presence and tried to move rapidly.
But Joroa, who moved like lightning in an instant, was faster in snatching Raina who was riding the Pegasus.
“Lady Raina!”
“Aunt!”
Ulta and Selia urgently tried to rescue Raina.
But Joroa was faster in escaping using magic.
“Mere Hero candidates. You can’t be my match.”
Joroa, who had teleported far away, sneered.
“You look happy. Seeing you pleased about beating kids much weaker than yourself. Did Leo beat you up pretty badly?”
Then Raina, who was grabbed by the throat by Joroa, mocked.
Joroa’s cold gaze turned to Raina.
“Are you too stupid to understand that I came here? I’ve dealt with Leo Flobe.”
“Really? Looking at your miserably beaten face, it doesn’t seem like it at all?”
Raina sneered.
“The fact that you came to capture me, whom you had originally lost interest in, means you’re taking out your anger on me, doesn’t it?”
“This bitch…!”
Joroa’s face contorted, then he curled up the corners of his mouth.
“Yes, if Leo Flobe is alive, throwing your mangled corpse at him wouldn’t be bad either. That would drive him insane too.”
Joroa emitted thick killing intent.
Watching such Joroa, Raina smiled.
“Try it.”
“What did you say?”
“That child won’t be shaken by something like that.”
Seeing Raina smiling calmly, Joroa’s face hardened stiffly.
“You’ll never be able to defeat my son.”
At Raina’s unwavering smile, Joroa felt unbearable rage surging up.
“I’ll make you regret running that mouth so carelessly!”
Gooooooo-!
Raina smiled as she watched the chilling aura rising from Joroa’s body.
‘This is… wrong.’
It didn’t seem like she would survive.
But…
No matter how much pain they inflicted, she would keep smiling.
‘Because Leo will be fine.’
Raina believed without a doubt that her son would never waver.
‘Sorry, Daid.’
Just as Raina closed her eyes, leaving an apology for her husband.
-Shall I help you?
‘Huh?’
-I asked if you need help.
‘Who?’
-I am Ista the Purification Spirit.
