795.

Click.

Rea’s door opened.

As Roon entered the room, Leo followed behind her.

“Excuse me.”

Chelsea, who had followed restlessly, muttered in a small voice.

Of course, no one responded.

Because the room’s owner was not present here.

“Whoa… My heart is racing.”

Just then, Iliana muttered as she entered the room.

“Is there really a need to be that nervous?”

At Runia’s question, Iliana nodded her head.

“Of course! I told you! This place is a sanctuary for Lumern students!”

Iliana, who had entered the room, spoke with exaggerated excitement.

Then, upon seeing the stark appearance of the room, she made a slightly disappointed expression.

“Eh, what? It’s ordinary?”

“What were you expecting?”

When Chelsea asked with an exasperated face, Iliana said,

“People who are perfect on the outside like Rea often have messy personal spaces, don’t they?”

“Do you think Rea is messy like you? By the way, don’t you think your character has changed too suddenly?”

At Cal’s point, Iliana put her hands on her hips.

“From now on, I’ve decided not to lose my true self!”

“Come to think of it, wasn’t she better in 2nd year than in 1st year?”

“At least she wasn’t noisy.”

When Cal whispered quietly, Chelsea nodded her head.

Watching the chattering Lumern students, Eiran smiled gently.

“The Lumern students always seem to get along so well whenever I see them.”

“You’re not in a position to worry about the Lumern kids right now. Did you forget what Senior Roon said about scolding you?”

At Runia’s words, Eiran made a tearful face.

While the students were having their conversation,

Leo looked around Rea’s room.

It was structured more like a house than a room.

The living room and kitchen were connected, and there were three rooms.

It was quite a spacious area for one person to use.

Leo had also received the largest room in the clock tower dormitory.

Of course, in Leo’s case, his dormitory room was ridiculously large.

“The room is big.”

“Huh? It’s no different from the rooms Lumern students use?”

“Do other students share rooms with several people?”

“Of course they’re private rooms.”

“…”

“Rea managed the school brilliantly. She paid attention to many things for the students’ convenience.”

At Roon’s words, Leo let out a hollow laugh.

It seemed she had put effort into various things to provide a comfortable dormitory environment.

‘Well, Risinass paid a lot of attention to welfare and such even when she was in Gardstron.’

Even in difficult circumstances, Risinass never forgot to hold modest festivals after major events.

“Now then, it’s time for the kids to sleep.”

Roon began pushing the students into the room.

“Female students will sleep in Rea’s room. And you there, Cal Thomas? You’ll sleep in the study.”

“Um… is it okay to sleep here without permission?”

“It’s fine. She’s not petty enough to complain about something like this.”

Roon answered Cal’s question with a grin and sent all the students into the rooms.

Then she used light sleep magic.

A moment later,

After confirming the students had fallen asleep, Roon approached Leo who was sitting on the sofa.

“Was there really a need to put the kids to sleep like that?”

“They must have been tired. And from now on, it’s a secret conversation just for adults, right?”

Roon winked one eye and sat on the sofa.

“Now we’re finally alone together.”

“Yeah.”

“Kail from a parallel world… That’s kind of fascinating? How did you end up crossing over to this side?”

Looking at Roon sitting in front of him, Leo told her the story of how he came to cross parallel worlds.

After hearing the entire story, Roon fell silent.

“… In your world line, we didn’t reincarnate?”

“That’s right.”

“… How cruel.”

“It is cruel.”

Roon smiled bitterly.

Then she made a puzzled expression.

“What exactly was that magic Chelsea and Iliana used? No matter how I look at it, that’s magic I created, isn’t it?”

She didn’t think Kail could have created that magic.

No matter how much research Kail had done on star magic, his nature wouldn’t change.

The magic those two used wasn’t something she had created, but it was definitely made by another version of herself.

At Roon’s question, Leo said calmly,

“Through the Hero Record, I was able to bring you all to reality for a brief time.”

“Such a thing is possible with the Hero Record?”

“Yes. In your case, the second time I summoned you to this world through your heroic spirit.”

At those words, Roon’s eyes widened.

“I became a heroic spirit?”

“Not just you, but Risinass too.”

“No way. What kind of lingering attachment did we have to the world?”

Roon made an incredulous expression.

When she died back then, did she have any attachment to this world?

“Even thinking about it now, it was somewhat unfair, but I don’t think I had enough attachment to remain as a heroic spirit?”

Looking at Roon who wore a puzzled expression, Leo said,

“Worry about Berkia.”

“Huh?”

“Your attachment was worry about Berkia.”

When her disciple’s name was mentioned, Roon smiled bitterly.

“If it was worry about Berkia, that might be possible.”

“And it was probably because of me too.”

At Leo’s words, Roon, who had been smiling bitterly, became serious.

“Kail. I’ll speak seriously.”

“About what?”

“I was definitely sorry for dumping the burden on you back then. It’s also true that I felt bad that you couldn’t reincarnate. But I can say with certainty that I wouldn’t have lingering attachment because of you.”

Roon looked at Leo and openly sneered at him.

“What’s so endearing about a personality-defective bastard with such a rotten temper that I’d have lingering attachment? If I had attachment because of guilt toward Rea… that is, Risinass, that would make sense.”

“…”

Leo, who had been making an incredulous expression at Roon’s words, said,

“I’ll become your future.”

The moment Roon heard Leo’s words, his face hardened stiffly.

“If you can’t envision a future, I’ll become your unchanging dream. So that your life can continue as my life.”

Roon’s shoulders began to tremble violently.

From the distant past. It was the marriage proposal he had made to Kail.

Those words that the human before him had failed to understand back then.

That proposal line had just flowed from Leo’s lips.

It wasn’t difficult to guess what kind of situation this was.

“What kind of cringeworthy words are those for a marriage proposal?”

“You… you… How long have you known?”

“Does that matter? What matters is that you liked me. No, that you still like me now.”

Roon’s face turned bright red.

“And what else did you say? Something like ‘I fell for that wonderful side of you that never gives up’? Was that it?”

“What? I never said anything like that!”

“Those are words that came directly from you in the Hero Record.”

“No! That’s not true! That thing just spouted nonsense on its own!”

“But you revealed your identity to the world and even announced that you liked me?”

“Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhh!”

Roon covered his ears and screamed, drowning out Leo’s words.

Embarrassment crept up slowly from deep within his chest.

Certainly, he had never done such things.

But if he had really been in such a situation?

‘Damn it! These are exactly the kind of things I would have done!’

Grinding his teeth, Roon covered his face and spoke in a sobbing voice while his shoulders trembled.

“If you tease me any more, I’ll really kill you.”

Despite his fragile appearance, his words and actions were quite menacing.

And if he teased him any further, it would truly be dangerous.

“Since this seems like something you should know, I’ll tell you about Berkia.”

“Silorod told me. That she found a good partner and lived happily.”

“… There’s more to the story.”

“…?”

Leo smiled bitterly and told Roon the story of Berkia’s life.

“Berkia became an Undead?”

After hearing the entire story, Roon’s face darkened.

A moment later.

When Leo finished his story, Roon wore a sad expression.

“… I didn’t know she would end up carrying such a burden.”

Roon muttered this and carefully asked.

“What happened in the end?”

“… Those damn kids called me dad.”

“Dad?”

“Yeah. They told me to cheer up. Damn kids.”

“Haha. How should I put it. That’s so like Berkia.”

After hearing Leo’s story, Roon let out a sigh of relief.

The absurdity of calling him dad in their final farewell was indeed very much like Berkia.

‘Well, Kail is their dad. Since I’m their mom.’

Mm-mm! Roon was nodding when he suddenly stopped.

“Wait.”

“…?”

“Kids? You mean Bihar also called you dad?”

“Yeah.”

“Why?”

Sensing something strange, Roon narrowed his eyes as Leo spoke.

“Well, I raised Bihar from when she was young too.”

“… But weren’t you just a simple teacher and student?”

“Apparently not. That kid considered Risinass her mom.”

“Wait. Wait. Wait.”

Roon waved his hands frantically as if he couldn’t organize his thoughts.

“She thinks of Risinass as her mom, but why are you Bihar’s dad?”

“Well, that’s…”

Seeing Roon’s confused reaction, Leo sensed something was wrong.

‘… Come to think of it, Luna didn’t know that Risinass liked me.’

What if she still didn’t know that fact here too?

“Don’t tell me… Risinass also has feelings for you?”

“Um…”

“She does! That con artist lizard! When I asked her so many times, she played dumb!”

Roon’s eyes flashed with anger.

Seeing this, Leo thought.

‘If she found out that I was tricked by that con artist lizard into even writing a marriage contract, there would really be chaos, wouldn’t there?’

Having thought that far, Leo looked at Roon again.

“Liar! Cunning lizard!”

Seeing Roon who looked ready to breathe fire, Leo nodded.

‘I’ll have to keep it secret until the end.’

***

Delan, a frontier kingdom in the western continent.

Being a small kingdom, most of its territories were peaceful countryside without major disturbances.

Among them, the Flobe Family territory.

Rumble rumble rumble-!

The villagers who were tending grapes suddenly felt the ground shaking.

“The ground is shaking?”

“Could it be an earthquake?”

“How fascinating. So this is what an earthquake is?”

The villagers looked curious at this natural phenomenon they were experiencing for the first time.

The vibration was small but clearly felt.

But after a moment.

Rummmmmmmble-!

“Aaaahhh!”

“Oh my goodness!”

The vibration grew larger and now began shaking so much that people staggered when standing.

Houses didn’t collapse, but household items inside fell over.

People crouched down, startled by the sudden situation.

Eventually, the shaking stopped.

A moment later.

Birds flew up all at once from the large mountain that occupied one part of the territory.

At this ominous sight, one villager spoke urgently.

“Shouldn’t we inform the Lord?”

“This is a very ominous sign! Let’s hurry!”

The villagers began moving frantically.

At that time, the mountain ecosystem was also in chaos.

All the birds had moved away from the mountain, and other animals were frantically fleeing the mountain.

As for the plants, they screamed silent screams.

Thud- Whoooosh-

At that moment, Black Flame blazed up in the middle of the Mountain.

The Black Flame, gradually taking the shape of a burning person, slowly disappeared from the Mountain without a trace.
