775

The moment Leo, who had been sucked in as if swept away by rapids, felt gravity again.

Thud-!

Leo crashed straight into the ground.

Grip-!

Leo tightened his grip on his sword and surveyed his surroundings with red eyes.

‘…Hot.’

Leo, who had been wearing thick clothes due to the abnormal temperature, felt scorching heat washing over him.

‘A jungle?’

Just moments ago, he had been in Deang.

But now Leo was in the middle of a dense jungle.

When he couldn’t sense Nix’s presence, Leo relaxed his stance.

Along with that.

Flutter flutter-

Something descended from the sky.

Leo caught it.

‘Hero Record?’

It was his own burned final chapter.

‘This definitely turned into ice just now…’

Leo felt puzzled and turned around.

And he discovered the ice mirror he had tried to slash earlier.

‘…Judging by the aura, this is also a Hero Record.’

Leo furrowed his brow and carefully touched the mirror with the tip of his sword.

Boing-!

Ripples spread across the mirror’s surface like a calm lake.

“What the hell is this situation?”

When Leo made an incredulous expression.

“A suspicious person!”

Whoosh-!

From behind, he heard a loud voice and the sound of a fist cutting through the air.

Leo reached out and blocked that fist.

Thud-!

The fist was blocked by Leo’s palm.

However, the massive shockwave from the clash of force against force swept over the surroundings.

Leo looked at the beastman who had thrown the large fist and tilted his head.

“Ajonia’s Borman?”

“Ho? You know who I am yet remain so calm! You’ve got some nerve!”

Leo frowned as he watched Borman snort dismissively.

“What are you talking about? Don’t you know who I…”

Then a bear beastman attacked from behind Leo.

“This is a restricted area, what are you doing here!”

With a fierce voice, a large palm tried to strike Leo.

Ajonia 3rd year Tabon.

Borman and Tabon.

Both were students who belonged to Ajonia’s 3rd year top ranks.

Bang-!

Leo extended his foot and blocked Tabon’s attack.

“No…!”

“Why are you suddenly attacking? And where is this place? Is Ardo here?”

“You know Ar?”

“Ardo is here too…”

“Then call that guy over.”

Seeing Leo calmly block their attacks, Borman and Tabon stepped back with wary expressions.

It seemed they realized Leo had no intention of fighting.

Then.

“Suspicious person spotted! Borman! Tabon! What are you spacing out for right now!”

A familiar voice was heard.

When Leo turned his head, there was Arga with her arms crossed, swishing her tail with an annoyed expression.

“Ar! This guy says he knows you!”

“Huh?”

Arga opened her eyes sharply and looked Leo up and down.

Then she tilted her head.

“His face is my type, but I’ve never seen this human before?”

‘What?’

Leo felt something was strange.

‘Is this an illusion?’

He had thought it was odd from Borman and Tabon’s reactions.

But seeing Ar’s reaction, he was certain something was wrong.

No matter how stupid Ar was, she wouldn’t forget him.

Thinking this, Leo sharpened his senses.

‘What is this?’

Leo frowned when he couldn’t feel any of the typical sensations of an illusion.

Then.

As expected, Dion, the werewolf who was Ajonia’s 3rd year second place, and Rwen, the fox beastman in 3rd place, appeared.

Rwen narrowed his eyes and observed Leo, then soon noticed what was in Leo’s hand and said.

“Excuse me. Isn’t that a Hero Record?”

“Huh? Could it be Kail’s Hero Record?”

Arga’s eyes widened.

“If he snuck in here to get Kail’s Hero Record, there’s a chance he could be a Hero Hunter, right?”

At Dion’s words, Borman and Tabon showed tense expressions.

“His skills were definitely not ordinary.”

“He also spoke as if he knew us.”

‘Seems like I’ve caused a misunderstanding.’

Leo clicked his tongue lightly.

‘Anyway, the fact that I need to take them down hasn’t changed.’

“Borman!”

“Huh?”

Crash-!

“Guh?!”

Leo’s fist, filled with aura, struck Borman’s side.

Borman collapsed to his knees.

Tabon hurriedly tried to attack Leo, but Leo was faster, moving behind Tabon and striking the back of his neck with the back of his hand.

Crack-!

“Urk?!”

The moment Borman and Tabon, who had been subdued in an instant, were about to lose consciousness.

Flash-!

Bright light burst from their bodies, and they immediately regained their senses and counterattacked Leo.

Leo, who dodged the counterattack, glanced at Rwen.

Rwen was glaring at Leo with his fingers forming hand seals.

Tap-!

As he landed on the ground, plants around him began to grow and attacked Leo.

It was Rwen’s magic.

“For an Ajonia student, you were using magic?”

Leo curled up the corners of his mouth.

Moreover, he wasn’t just skilled in attack magic alone.

He was an extremely capable mage who handled healing magic and support magic at an expert level.

Kwang-!

Leo kicked off the ground and closed the distance with Rwen at tremendous speed.

At that moment.

Kwaak-!

Dion swung his battle axe at Leo.

Leo, gripping his sword, struck up at the battle axe.

Jjeong-!

“Keuuk?!”

Dion’s eyes filled with shock.

“Where did such a skilled fighter come from…!”

Leo, having deflected Dion, kicked off the ground once more.

Along with that, smooth legs struck toward Leo’s face.

Thud-! Kwaaaaang-!

Leo, who blocked Ar’s kick with his hand, felt his hand go numb.

Ar snorted “Hmph-!” and grinned wickedly.

“This should be fun!”

And she revealed her fighting spirit as she lunged at Leo.

Hwang-!

Ar’s sharp kicks and punches aimed at Leo from all directions.

While dodging those attacks, Leo narrowed his eyes.

‘She’s different from the Ar I know.’

Much more wild.

‘She’s like Arron.’

Thinking that, Leo dove into Ar’s embrace.

“Huk!”

When Ar tried to hastily retreat.

Kwak-!

“Niyaaaak! My tail!”

When Leo grabbed and pulled her tail, Ar lunged at him as if to devour him.

Hwoong-! Hwoong-!

“Neuaaaak?!”

Leo grabbed Ar’s tail and spun her around whoong whoong whoong! then threw her toward Rwen.

“Wh-what… Kyaaaak?!”

Ar and Rwen tangled together and rolled across the ground.

Thud-

“How dare you touch a lady’s tail… my tail…!”

Ar, who shot up from her spot, trembled all over and glared with wide eyes.

“Keoheoeoeoeng-!”

A massive roar echoed out.

‘Howling.’

Along with that, the Ajonia students began to transform.

Seeing this, Leo flexed his fingers.

“Is this how it feels when a pet cat you’re raising hisses?”

***

Thud-!

“Keuuk?!”

Dion rolled across the ground.

The five Ajonia students rolling on the ground happened in an instant.

“Kiiiiik!”

Ar bared her teeth and claws as she tried to get up.

Kwak-!

“Keohuk?!”

At that moment, Leo firmly stepped on Ar’s stomach.

Ar, who had been looking up at Leo with a fierce expression, flinched.

When her eyes met those red eyes looking down at her, her body shrank back.

But soon she gritted her teeth and glared.

Looking down at Ar whose stubbornness had kicked in, Leo flexed his fist.

‘What the hell is this?’

Clearly this situation wasn’t reality.

But no matter how sharply he honed his senses with his super-senses, his senses told him this situation was real.

Leo glanced at the ice mirror.

The Ajonia students couldn’t perceive that mirror at all.

“You… what are you!”

When Ar asked fiercely, Leo said.

“I’m a Lumern student.”

“Don’t be ridiculous! If there was a monster like you at Lumern, there’s no way rumors wouldn’t have spread!”

“You’re quite noisy.”

“Huguk?!”

When Leo put more force into the foot stepping on Ar’s stomach, a deflating sound burst from Ar’s mouth.

At that moment.

Hwaak-!

Leo saw a palm covering his face in an instant and moved his sword.

Kwang-!

Leo’s body was sent flying after barely blocking the attack with his sword.

Whirik-! Tak-!

Leo, who landed on the ground, felt his hand trembling from the shock traveling through his sword.

‘What kind of power…’

Leo frowned and raised his head to look at the one who attacked him.

It was a black werewolf with gleaming silver eyes.

‘A guy I’ve never seen before?’

He was wearing Ajonia’s uniform, but he had never seen such a student.

There was no way he could forget someone capable of delivering an attack with this much power.

“Senior Kar!”

Ar made a bright expression.

“Ar, are you okay?”

“Yes!”

Watching Ar nod her head vigorously with sparkling eyes, Leo felt a strange feeling.

To such Leo, Kar spoke in a lowered voice.

“How dare you attack my juniors?”

Looking at the black werewolf fiercely baring his teeth, Leo said indifferently.

“Your juniors attacked me first though?”

Leo answered nonchalantly and rested his sword on his shoulder.

Kar’s gaze turned to Leo’s hand.

Kar’s silver eyes became even more ferocious.

“Give that back.”

At those words, Leo chuckled.

“Give it back? Sorry. This is mine.”

Whoosh-!

As soon as the response ended, Kar closed the distance with Leo at tremendous speed.

Kwaaaang-!

Kugagagagagagang-!

The Ajonia students’ jaws dropped.

The shockwave from Leo being sent flying uprooted all the trees and overturned the ground.

“He’s, he’s dead, right?”

“This is the first time I’ve seen Senior Kar this angry.”

At Borman’s muttering, Rwen made a dazed expression.

Thud- Thud-

Then Leo walked out from the ruins.

Seeing this, Dion made a shocked expression.

“What kind of monster is that…!”

Leo rolled his shoulders and clicked his tongue.

And he looked at Kar.

Leo, with a fierce expression, charged straight at Kar.

Bang-!

Leo, who sent Kar flying just as he had been, immediately chased after the flying Kar.

Flash-!

Leo’s sword gleamed.

Before he knew it, Kar had also drawn his sword and parried Leo’s sword that was being swung at him.

Kwang-!

The clash of flame aura and silver aura.

Kagagagak-!

It was Leo who was pushed back in the sword-to-sword power struggle.

Kwagagak-!

Leo deflected the sword.

And he spun his body and used magic.

Whooosh-!

Fire magic struck Kar directly.

Kar took the fire magic head-on and charged toward Leo.

‘This guy.’

Leo’s eyes twitched.

For a moment, someone’s figure overlapped with Kar.

Leo unleashed gray aura.

And seeing the gray aura gathered on Leo’s sword, Kar’s eyes widened greatly.

Kwang-!

The clash of aura against aura.

But there wasn’t the same fierce exchange as before.

“Huh?”

A dazed voice burst from Kar’s mouth upon seeing Leo’s aura.

Leo also made a confused expression upon seeing Kar’s golden aura.

Their eyes met with Kar’s pupils that had turned golden.

“Ah… Ah…”

Clang.

Kar dropped his sword.

It was an unforgettable color of aura.

How could he forget it?

That color that had given him courage countless times.

The color he had endlessly searched for since being reborn.

How many times had his hope that someone would open their eyes under the same sky as him been crushed?

How many tears had he shed?

Could this time also be wrong? Could it be mere speculation?

Though he was suddenly frightened by such thoughts.

The werewolf spoke that name aloud with a tearful voice.

“Kail…”

The hero, still a coward even after being reborn, called his friend’s name pitifully with a face hoping for an answer.

“It’s Kail, right?”
