792.
Roon opened his eyes at the commotion happening outside.
‘An attack?’
He briefly considered that thought but soon shook his head.
‘I don’t sense any dark magic.’
Moreover, he couldn’t feel any movement from the Lumern professors either.
‘Must be some kind of training.’
Roon went to sit by the window and looked at the burning dormitory.
Then he tilted his head in confusion.
‘Phoenix flames?’
He could sense the power of a phoenix from the flames burning in the dormitory.
Furthermore…
‘This is the same power as Runia’s phoenix?’
“Fiora! Where are you!”
“Miss Runia! She’s not in her room!”
He heard the urgent voices of Runia and Eiran from outside the door.
Roon opened the door and went out.
“What’s going on?”
“Fiora suddenly disappeared! Senior Roon!”
Runia said with a tearful expression.
“Those flames burning at Lumern Dormitory right now, they seem to be your phoenix’s power?”
“What?”
Runia made a flustered expression and hurriedly ran to the window.
“Wh-what is this…”
Runia wore an expression of disbelief as she spoke to Roon.
“I-I’ll go outside for a moment.”
“Eiran. Go with Runia.”
“Y-yes.”
After sending off his juniors, Roon went back into his room.
Then he plopped down on his bed and muttered to himself.
‘What kind of situation is this? A double contract? But no matter how young, a phoenix wouldn’t make a double contract.’
Roon, who had been lost in thought for a moment, soon lay back down on his bed.
‘Too bothersome to think about.’
Something impossible had happened.
Even so, Roon couldn’t feel any curiosity.
With a listless expression, Roon looked up at the ceiling and closed his eyes.

“Uwahahahahaha!”
Cal held bottles in both hands.
“This firepower is insane?!”
“Kugh! Th-this villain…!”
The freshmen looked at Cal holding torches with horrified expressions.
Currently, Cal was confronting the freshmen who were trying to put out the fire from the rear.
Cal held potion bottles with cloth stuffed into bottles containing highly explosive oil and lit them with torches.
Cal’s torches were Fiora’s flames.
The meeting of phoenix flames, said to be the most powerful flames in this world, and highly flammable explosive potions created tremendous power.
Cal repeatedly appeared like a ghost whenever the freshmen showed an opening, threw potion bottles, and hid behind surrounding terrain.
While doing so, he was conducting guerrilla warfare against the freshmen, setting up all kinds of traps.
Literally dirty tricks.
But the freshmen were properly caught up in Cal’s dazzling trickery.
Whoosh-!
“Now! Where should I throw this? Whoa! Whoa!”
The freshmen who had seen the power of the potions trembled as they watched Cal wildly swinging the bottles around.
“Here you go!”
“Kyaaaah?!”
Then Cal threw a potion bottle at one of the female students.
Bang! Whoooosh-!
The bottle hit the ground and exploded.
But it was only a momentary large flare of flames.
In the end, it caused no damage whatsoever.
“Just kidding! Uwahahahaha!”
Cal laughed and hid himself again.
Even Cal didn’t have a large quantity of highly explosive potions.
He was just using bluffs like this to make the freshmen fall deeper into panic.
‘My purpose is only to stop the freshmen, not to defeat them.’
Cal was simply doing what he could do.
But even that alone was achieving sufficient effect.
“Hey, you sneaky…!”
“First time fighting someone sneaky?!”
Cal’s giggling laughter echoed through the air.
***
Chen Xia trembled.
‘What is this man.’
When her eyes met with the man looking down at her while stepping on her stomach, she gritted her teeth and grabbed his ankle.
She tried to activate her water aura.
Press-!
“Kugh?!”
But when her opponent applied force, her water aura scattered.
It wasn’t simply applying force.
Her opponent had neutralized Chen Xia’s aura by flowing his own aura.
‘Shadow fighting style?!’
But it was overwhelmingly superior.
The man was fighting with the combat method he ideally envisioned.
Chen Xia turned her head to look at Woreden lying collapsed on the ground.
‘He defeated Woreden with spirit magic alone.’
And this man’s spirit magic somehow resembled Woreden’s.
No. To be precise, it was far more evolved than Woreden’s fighting style.
It was like what Woreden ultimately aimed for.
Then a Wind Wyvern roared from the sky and charged at Leo.
Whoooosh-
Then Fiora’s body on Leo’s shoulder grew large and began breathing out wind.
“What kind of phoenix breathes wind…!”
Eliza, who was riding the Wind Wyvern, cried out in shock.
Whoooosh!
The wind that Fiora breathed out made Fiora’s flames even stronger.
Boom-!
“Kyaaaah?!”
The Wind Wyvern that collided with Fiora was sent flying.
From that impact, Eliza was also bounced off from the Wind Wyvern.
Leo looked at Eliza falling toward him and reached out his hand with an expressionless face.
Grab-!
Eliza, caught by the back of her neck, collapsed limply while unconscious.
At that moment, Chloe’s ice clones, which were ice bombs themselves, rushed toward Leo.
Leo reached out his hand as he looked at the ice clone that had reached right next to him.
Grip-!
“Kugh?!”
“Your tricks are shallow.”
Leo said calmly.
“You were planning to hide among the ice clones and rescue your comrades, weren’t you?”
Leo spoke calmly while looking at Chloe, who was kneeling with her throat caught in his grip.
“But the place that suits you is the rear.”
Chloe had been fighting like a battle magician.
More precisely, it was the way an all-around mage who moves between front and rear would fight.
It was the same method Leo used when casting magic.
But it was a direction that didn’t suit Chloe.
Swoosh-!
“Kek?!”
Leo raised his arm.
Chloe, floating in the air, made a pained expression and grabbed Leo’s wrist.
At that moment, Avad deployed magic from the sky.
Seeing this, Leo deployed Dispel.
The magic Avad had created was instantly neutralized.
The moment they saw this, everyone’s eyes filled with shock.
“Ma, magic?”
“Summoning Knight… wasn’t it Dual Class?!”
“You mean All-Class?”
“But that only appears in legends!”
While everyone showed shocked expressions.
Avad bit his lips.
“A monster… he is.”
“Pressure using wind. It’s efficient, so it’s a method I like.”
“Your combat method is similar to mine.”
“Is it just you?”
Leo burst into laughter.
“Do you know why you were so easily subdued by me?”
At those words, the third-years fell silent.
Chen Xia bit her lips tightly.
‘Overwhelming summoning skills capable of binding all Lumern students except first-years by himself.’
Leo had summoned countless familiars and spirits to tie down the other grades.
Among them was Elena, who was a fifth-year.
But he also possessed swordsmanship and magical abilities that matched those summoning skills.
In a way, that was the ideal form that Lumern students dreamed of.
And the moment they saw that form, they realized.
‘I… No. We can never become like that.’
Even with a lifetime of effort, it would be impossible to even reach that level.
As Chen Xia bit her lips.
Swoosh-
Leo removed his foot from Chen Xia’s stomach.
Thud- Thud-
And he also released Chloe and Eliza who were caught in his hands.
He had perceived that their will to fight him had disappeared.
At that moment, Chelsea and Iliana came running.
“Leo oppa! I won!”
“Leo! Leo! I beat Duran!”
Chelsea and Iliana shouted with excited voices.
Hearing those voices, Chen Xia’s eyes widened.
“Miss Chelsea? Miss Iliana? No, more than that, what did you just say…?”
Looking at Chen Xia’s disbelieving expression, Iliana puffed out her chest proudly.
“I! I beat Duran! Xia! This is all thanks to Leo! Leo must be a god!”
Her excited chattering was both unfamiliar and familiar.
It was like she had returned to her first-year self.
Of course, if she had defeated Duran, it meant she had become incomparably stronger.
“Ah! Brother…!”
As Chen Xia panicked and tried to run to Avad.
Grab-!
“Huh?”
Leo caught Chelsea by the back of her neck.
“Leave him alone.”
“Huh? Why?”
“You beat Selia. But Avad was defeated by me without being able to do anything.”
Leo said calmly.
“No matter how good Avad’s personality is, if you approach him now to comfort him, you’ll be crushing his pride.”
“Ah…”
Chelsea shrank her neck.
Leo turned his head to look at Selia and Duran in the distance, who were using their swords as staffs to get up.
It wasn’t a narrow victory.
It was literally an overwhelming victory.
One week.
In just one week, Chelsea and Iliana had returned to their original selves.
They had completely absorbed the combat methods that Chelsea and Iliana from the other world—not the two from this world—had built up through their own thinking and contemplation.
That difference had created the current result.
‘It seems like nothing special, but… it’s huge.’
The Lumern students of this world line had unintentionally lost their true selves.
Even if they looked the same on the outside, there was a clear difference between fake and real.
“Decide.”
Leo said.
“Whether you’ll just sit there defeated.”
Everyone looked at Leo.
“Or get back up and move forward.”
Leo smiled slightly.
“I’ll recommend the latter.”
“Why?”
“Because if you choose the former, I won’t let it slide.”
Chen Xia let out a hollow laugh.
Leaving Chen Xia behind, Leo started walking.
Chelsea and Iliana looked around nervously, then hurriedly followed behind Leo.
Watching their retreating figures, Chen Xia thought.
‘He’s similar to Miss Rea… No. In this case, should I say Miss Rea resembles that person?’
***
Whoosh-!
Leo arrived in front of the burning dormitory and swept away the flames.
“Shouldn’t we help Cal?”
At Chelsea’s question, Leo said.
“Cal is stronger in real combat than you think. Don’t worry.”
Having said that, Leo stopped walking and looked ahead.
There were familiar faces there.
‘Runia, Eiran.’
When Leo spotted the two people.
Runia and Eiran also spotted Leo.
And Runia noticed the fat phoenix on Leo’s shoulder.
“Fiora!”
Runia ran up to Leo and shouted.
“You! You kidnapped Fiora, didn’t you?! What’s your scheme!”
At that fierce voice, Leo tilted his head.
“Kidnapped?”
Saying that, Leo grabbed Fiora’s head and lifted her up.
Peep- Peep-!
Fiora flapped her wings and struggled.
“I just summoned her?”
“Don’t be ridiculous! Fiora is bound by a pact with me! There’s no way she’d respond to your summoning!”
Watching Runia get angry, Leo shook Fiora left and right violently.
Peeeeeeeeeeep!
“Fiora!”
As Fiora’s flesh jiggled and she screamed, Runia cried out in horror.
Looking at such Runia, Leo said with a pathetic expression.
“A summoner can’t properly manage one of her own summons? That’s why she abandoned you and responded to my summoning.”
“Don’t be ridiculous! You kidnapped her! Give Fiora back right now!”
At those words, Leo made an indifferent expression and threw Fiora with a whoosh-!
Thud!
Peep!
Fiora hit the ground and let out a scream.
“Fio…”
“Choose, Fiora.”
Leo said calmly.
“Runia or me.”
At those words, Fiora turned her head.
And began looking back and forth between Leo and Runia.
“Fiora, come here quickly.”
Runia crouched down and held out both hands.
Peep!
Fiora began rolling around.
“…!”
Runia made a shocked expression.
The direction Fiora rolled was none other than toward Leo.
“Think again.”
When Leo nudged Fiora with his toe, she rolled toward Runia like a ball.
But Fiora turned her body of her own will and returned to Leo’s feet.
Grab-
Leo picked up Fiora.
“You chose me.”
Thump-
“Th, this can’t be…”
Runia sat down on the spot with an unbelieving expression, then soon made a fierce face.
“You damn bastard! What did you do to Fiora!”
Flare-!
“Eek?!”
“Wh, what?”
At Runia’s appearance shouting with tremendously fierce momentum, Iliana hid behind Leo in fright and Chelsea also stepped back in surprise.
Seeing that, Leo clicked his tongue.
‘As expected, she was putting on an act.’
She was known to the world as a perfect honor student, so he thought it was strange, but apparently she was thoroughly putting on an act.
“R, Runia. Please calm down for now.”
“Let go! I’m going to tear apart that damn delinquent who steals other people’s summons!”
“P, please calm down!”
Eiran urgently stopped Runia and asked.
“Wh, what is your purpose?”
At that question, Leo said calmly.
“I have business with Seirun’s student council president.”
“With Senior Roon?”
Eiran made a puzzled expression.
Looking at such Eiran, Leo raised his sword.
And aimed it precisely at the room where Roon was staying.
“Yeah.”
“What business do you have with Senior Roon?”
When Eiran asked with a wary expression, Leo said calmly.
“I’m going to kick that rotten bitch’s ass.”
Flash! Boom-!
When Leo unleashed his mana, a powerful explosion occurred in the room where Roon was.
Runia and Eiran’s eyes widened.
Chelsea and Iliana also gaped.
“Chelsea, Iliana.”
“Huh?”
“Please deal with those two.”
Whoooosh-!
Leo turned his head to look toward Roon, who was scattering ominous mana.
“I think I need to have some physical dialogue with her.”
“W, will you be okay?”
When Chelsea asked carefully, Leo shrugged his shoulders.
“It’ll be a bit intense?”
