628.

 

“Hold on! Luna is still keeping the Monster Queen restrained!”

 

Akint shouted desperately.

 

Nearly half a day had passed since Monster Queen Silatuna had dragged Leo into the curse of severance.

 

After what had seemed like a suicidal act.

 

Leo had been holding Silatuna captive for a long time.

 

‘Was Luna’s skill at this level?’

 

Akint clenched his fist tightly as he looked at the place where the curse of severance was cast.

 

Luna certainly possessed the power to defeat a Legion Commander.

 

But that was only her power as a mage.

 

It didn’t apply when facing a Legion Commander in single combat.

 

‘Today’s Luna was definitely strange.’

 

She didn’t smile as usual, nor did she boast loudly telling them to just trust her.

 

She only conveyed calm words.

 

‘And that magic.’

 

The dazzling magic that had struck Silatuna directly flashed through Akint’s mind.

 

Magic possessing tremendous power unlike anything he had ever seen.

 

Akint knew of magic similar in form.

 

‘Teacher Akint! Look at this! Isn’t it amazing?’

 

‘Yes! It’s truly amazing. When this magic is completed, surely the world will…’

 

‘Yes! I’ll be able to fill the world with flower fields! The magic to bloom flowers will be complete!’

 

‘…Aren’t you creating magic to save the world?’

 

‘Oh, that’s just an additional element that comes along when the flower-blooming magic is completed.’

 

The magical formula Luna had shown.

 

Even for someone who had studied magic his entire life, it was that brilliant magic that was not easily understood.

 

‘Could she have completed it?’

 

That was the only way he could think of it.

 

‘If there were companions who could protect Luna… perhaps there might be a possibility of ending this terrible era.’

 

Luna was a flower that had just begun to bloom.

 

If there were others like Luna with infinite possibilities, there was hope for this era too.

 

‘She was a child who had long since left my hands.’

 

Thinking of his disciple, Akint deployed magic while looking at the approaching legion.

 

The legion’s offensive was fierce.

 

Before that offensive, the Elves were like candles in the wind.

 

A situation where collapse could happen at any moment.

 

But the Elves tenaciously fought off the legion.

 

Those here were also skilled fighters who would throw themselves into battle for the world’s fate.

 

Of course, there were also those who didn’t yet qualify to stand here.

 

But there were just as many fierce warriors who possessed power worthy of being called heroes.

 

Moreover, the legion currently had no commander.

 

Though Silatuna’s loyal followers, terrible and powerful Demons, were rampaging, they couldn’t control the entire legion.

 

A legion was literally like the hands and feet of its commander.

 

Only when the Legion Commander was present could it reveal its true worth.

 

‘If Luna defeats Silatuna…! Victory in this battle wouldn’t be just a dream!’

 

Thinking this, Akint gritted his teeth as he saw the darkness approaching from afar.

 

Night was coming soon.

 

When night came, it would clearly be a more difficult battle than now.

 

That’s when it happened.

 

Crack-!

 

Cracks began to appear in the space of the void.

 

Akint’s gaze turned toward that place.

 

Crackle! Crash-!

 

Space shattered into pieces and a massive monster revealed itself from there.

 

“Monster Queen!”

 

“Oh… God…”

 

Seeing the Monster Queen freed from the curse of severance, the Elves’ faces were instantly dyed with despair.

 

“Finally, our Queen has returned!”

 

“Victory shall be with us!”

 

In contrast, the morale of the Monster Queen’s legion soared.

 

It was when Silatuna’s legion was adding to its ferocity.

 

[Ahahahahaha-! I’m out! Finally liberated!]

 

Silatuna’s desperate voice echoed.

 

Silatuna’s appearance was somewhat strange.

 

Blood was flowing all over her body, and that blood was streaming down to the ground like a waterfall.

 

When the blood hit the ground, powerful poisonous fog spread thickly around the area.

 

An appearance that looked threatening at first glance.

 

But in other words, it meant her body had become tattered enough for that much blood to pour out.

 

The legion began to stir at that miserable sight.

 

“Where’s Luna?!”

 

Akint urgently searched for Leo’s whereabouts.

 

And he saw.

 

Leo standing in the sky with the darkening sky behind him.

 

Bright light was generated from Leo’s hands.

 

Star Magic – Conclusion

 

In an instant, light pushed back the darkness.

 

Then Silatuna’s legion clumped together into chunks of flesh and rose like a shield in front of Silatuna.

 

Leo’s magic was momentarily blocked by the monster shield.

 

The shield made of the monster legion was annihilated, but Silatuna suffered no damage.

 

[Darkness is coming! Your time is now over!]

 

Ecstasy appeared on Silatuna’s face.

 

She had been trapped in the curse of severance she had cast and had to feel endless terror.

 

But the elf before her, who had delivered such absolute terror, was now finished.

 

She now had the legion in her hands, and night was now coming to the world.

 

Now it was not she who would feel terror, but that elf.

 

Silatuna’s face, which had been wearing a mad smile, contorted.

 

It was because of Leo’s attitude, staring intently in one direction without even glancing at Silatuna.

 

The direction where darkness was approaching as the sun set.

 

West.

 

[Ignoring me to the very end…!]

 

Silatuna, whose anger was rising at Leo’s attitude, suddenly recalled one fact.

 

The place where news of the death of the Devouring King, Silatuna’s comrade and the strongest Legion Commander, had been reported was to the west.

 

[Could it be…!]

 

Flash-!

 

In an instant, bright light burst forth from the west.

 

The light pushed back the world’s darkness.

 

Everyone unconsciously looked toward the place where the light had burst forth.

 

[This is…!]

 

Among all the magic Leo knew, the strongest magic in terms of pure power alone was Conclusion, created by Luna.

 

There was no magic that surpassed Conclusion in power, versatility, and range.

 

But there was one magic that, under specific conditions, boasted power comparable to or even greater than Conclusion.

 

Light attribute magic that destroys and judges evil beings.

 

“Punishment.”

 

It was Risinass’s unique magic that had judged countless demons.

 

At the center of the light bursting forth from the west, a woman could be seen.

 

A beautiful woman with black hair—Risinass’s eyes met Leo’s for a moment.

 

Her face held both surprise and relief.

 

Risinass, who had been looking at Leo, soon smiled gently.

 

Risinass nocked an arrow of light onto her bow made of light, aimed at Silatuna, and released the bowstring.

 

Flash—!

 

[Kiiiiiiiiiiiiiii!]

 

A scream filled with pain poured from Silatuna’s mouth.

 

In the original history, this had already been a battle thick with defeat.

 

‘But now it’s different.’

 

History had changed.

 

Leo summoned his magic staff.

 

And began to gather his magical power.

 

The power of magic is directly proportional to the time spent chanting spells.

 

Even with the same magic, the longer the chanting time, the more powerful it becomes.

 

The problem is that the mage becomes defenseless during long incantations.

 

And currently, Leo was in the middle of a battlefield.

 

Even though she had taken a direct hit from Risinass’s magic, the Monster Queen was still alive, and the legion led by the Monster Queen was still intact.

 

[You hideous bitch! How dare you in front of me!]

 

Kugugung—!

 

Silatuna raised her arm to crush Leo.

 

“Hideous? Are your eyes rotten?”

 

At that moment, a mocking laugh was heard as gray aura flashed.

 

Chajajajajak—!

 

In the storm of sword energy that erupted in an instant, Silatuna’s arm was sliced into pieces and fell to the ground as a rain of blood.

 

“Calling such a pretty elf hideous.”

 

The one who used the gray aura immediately used both magic and spirits simultaneously, burning Silatuna’s body.

 

Kwagagagang! Hwareureureuk—!

 

Fire magic and fire spirits blazed fiercely.

 

[Kyaaaak!]

 

Silatuna let out another scream filled with pain and glared at the young man with gray hair with eyes full of hatred.

 

[All-Class! Are you the hero who survives!]

 

“That’s right. It was a short meeting, but it was disgusting to meet you. Let’s never meet again.”

 

Kail raised his middle finger toward Silatuna and looked back at Leo.

 

“Hey, pretty one over there. Finish it.”

 

‘…Did I really talk like that normally?’

 

Watching Kail gesture with his chin in an incredibly sarcastic voice, Leo’s expression twisted for a moment.

 

“Tsk. Elves, really. So annoying.”

 

Seeing Leo frown, Kail seemed to misunderstand and clicked his tongue.

 

“Tsk.”

 

Leo clicked his tongue back at his past self and released his magic.

 

“Terminus.”

 

In the distant future.

 

The magic that would become a symbol of despair to Tartaros unfolded once again in Leo’s hands.

 

This time was different from the previous spells.

 

Magic with the maximum power Leo could produce exploded.

 

Kuwagagagagagagagang—

 

[Aaaaaaaaaaak! Oh God!]

 

Silatuna’s screams echoed as she took a direct hit from Terminus.

 

After the massive storm of magical power, the Monster Queen’s form disappeared without a trace.

 

“…Insane.”

 

Kail let out an exclamation of shock at the sight.

 

He seemed unable to imagine magic of this level of power.

 

Leo, who had squeezed out all his magical power, swayed.

 

Thud—!

 

When Leo lost his balance and was about to fall to the ground.

 

Someone grabbed Leo’s hand.

 

“Are you okay?”

 

Risinass smiled gently and supported Leo.

 

“You’re Luna, right?”

 

Leo nodded at that question and then asked.

 

“Do you know the name Rodia?”

 

“Huh? Who’s that?”

 

“…Never mind. It’s nothing.”

 

‘…It seems Risinass’s memories from this world don’t carry over.’

 

Perhaps it was because this wasn’t the Heroes’ World.

 

At Leo’s words, Risinass said.

 

“Leave the rest to us. Kail!”

 

At Risinass’s words, Kail nodded and headed to the ground to face the Monster Queen’s legion.

 

***

 

When night fell.

 

The result of the battle was the recapture of the Elven Forest.

 

It was a natural result, if you could call it that.

 

‘Unlike that time, this time Silatuna was defeated by me.’

 

Leo looked down at his hands.

 

‘In a case like this, I’m alone in this world so I could change history like this… but what about worlds where demons have entered?’

 

Knowing the future is itself an enormous variable.

 

Leo was lost in thought about future events when.

 

“Luna!”

 

“Lady Luna!”

 

Led by Akint, the elves came rushing toward Leo.

 

Watching them, Risinass stepped forward and smiled gently.

 

“You must be Lord Akint? It’s an honor to meet you. I’m called Risinass. Thank you for leading us to this miraculous victory.”

 

At Risinass’s words, Akint shook his head.

 

“No. Without you, we couldn’t have achieved victory. Thank you so much for your support.”

 

While Risinass and Akint were talking.

 

“Lady Luna! Are you alright?”

 

Hiriyon came running urgently.

 

Looking at Hiriyon, Leo said.

 

“You’re alive.”

 

“Yes. Somehow….”

 

Leo chuckled at Hiriyon’s awkward smile when.

 

“Are you feeling alright?”

 

Kail approached Leo.

 

Looking at Kail, who was watching him with a somehow sarcastic expression, Leo narrowed his brow for a moment.

 

‘Did I really have such a dissatisfied expression?’

 

Seeing his past self from a third-person perspective, Leo felt an indescribable emotion.

 

“Anyway, these Elves. Does it bother you that they’re staring?”

 

“That’s not it.”

 

Leo shook his head, feeling a strange sensation.

 

Watching Leo like that, Kail chuckled.

 

“If that’s not it, then what? Did you fall for me?”

 

“What rude words are you saying to Lady Luna!”

 

Hiriyon flared up.

 

Watching Hiriyon like that, Kail only wore an indifferent expression.

 

And Leo thought.

 

‘So there was a reason why Risinass and Luna would sometimes growl at me. I want to punch him.’

 

It was when Leo was making a serious expression at his past behavior.

 

[Strategy Failed: The World will collapse.]

 

Light burst forth along with the message.

 

The light that erupted with that message blocked his vision.

 

When his vision recovered, he could see the scenery of Flobe Estate.

 

Leo looked at the pitch-black piece of paper clutched in his hand.

 

Saaaaa-

 

The piece of paper turned to ash and disappeared.

 

‘Does the page also get destroyed due to the influence of strategy failure?’

 

Leo made a serious expression as he watched the Legion Record completely turn to powder and scatter away.

 

‘I should discuss this with Mellina.’

 

Leo glanced and turned his head.

 

‘Well then, shall I go finish things up?’

 

Heading toward where he could sense Joroa’s presence, Leo suddenly felt puzzled.

 

‘By the way, even I could see I was insufferable, so why on earth did those guys fall for me?’

 

It was definitely a question that Risinass and Luna would have answered ‘Exactly.’ if they had heard it.
