Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 237



237

Tuk-tuk-ssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

Chase- Chase- It started to rain.

Bodies were strewn all over the rural village.

In the middle of it all a girl was walking.

The cold spring rain washed down the ground.

Drop- Drop-

Red water droplets fell from her body.

“Cough! Cough!”

A person covered in black clothes was vomiting blood.

Chen Xia said looking down at him the only survivor.

“I will punish you for conspiring with Tartarus.”

“Hehehe- that’s terrible.”

The man who was wounded almost to death let out a sneer.

“It makes me wonder what’s different between us and your shadows. “I can’t believe a young girl could be this cruel.”

“At least we don’t betray the world for our own greed.”

“Why don’t you talk so proudly! “At any rate you are just losers who are not recognized by the gods.”

A sneer appeared on the man’s face.

Suddenly!

At that time a silver flash flew from behind Chen Xia and decapitated the man.

Wow!

Blood splattered.

Chen Xia’s body which had been washed away by the rain was stained with blood again.

Chen Xia turned her head.

“Her Royal Highness. “Do not pollute your ears with the empty words of the wicked.”

“yes.”

Chen Xia answered calmly and turned around.

This was the end of the traitors hiding in this village.

‘It’s a feeling I haven’t felt in a long time.’

Other shadows that had suddenly appeared were chopping up the corpse as if they were confirming the death.

Looking at that scene Chen Xia took a deep breath.

‘If my classmates had seen it they might have frowned.’

There is no telling what kind of unexpected situation may occur due to the black magic of Tartarus.

For Shadow this level of confirmed kill is natural.

But it was definitely not a noble act.

But this appearance was not unfamiliar to Chen Xia.

Rather I accepted it as if it was natural.

This is a scene I have seen since I was young.

For the past year I’ve just been in a different world.

Turp-plop-

Chen Xia took a step.

These people including Chen Xia were the shadows of the Shan Empire.

Shan Empire.

A powerful country in the East with a long history.

The Shan Empire had another name: the Land of Shadows.

Great heroes save the world.

The era of heroes has begun.

2000 years after the end of the era of disaster.

After the disaster returned and the power of Hero Records became known to the world it became heroes who led the world’s political situation.

Many people envied and admired heroes.

He praised the feats accomplished by heroes and dreamed of becoming a hero himself.

A hero academy was established numerous famous families of heroes were born and a country founded by heroes was born.

Many countries made efforts to create heroes.

‘It wasn’t the Shan Empire.’

The Shan Empire did not foster heroes.

It’s not that heroes weren’t born but Shan considered shadows to be more important.

‘Because we have been fighting since before this country was founded… no since before the era of heroes.’

Shan’s official founding date was 4000 years ago but Shan’s shadows existed more than 5000 years ago.

It was from the era of disaster.

During that long period of time he protected the world without even leaving his name on the hero record.

‘People who are more noble than anyone else… and uglier than anyone else.’

Turp-plop-

Because they had to live completely in the dark the shadows enforce their own justice.

Chen Xia stopped walking.

And when he discovered the young brother and sister hiding in the alley his eyes widened.

The siblings were shivering perhaps because of the cold spring rain.

Chubbuk- Chubbuk-

“Are you okay?”

At Chen Xia’s question the siblings hugged each other even more.

“It’s very cold isn’t it? “Go with your sister…”

“Hi!”

Chen Xia stretched out her hand to help the children.

Then the boy hugged his sister and closed his eyes tightly.

At that scream Chen Xia’s hand stopped in midair.

Chen Xia who hesitated then said with a bitter smile.

“Sorry. “I guess I scared you.”

I raised my bowed body.

“Nothing scary will happen in the future. So don’t stay here go home. “You’ll catch a cold if you stay here.”

After saying that Chen Xia left the alley.

“My pretty sister helped us….”

“fizzle! Quickly follow me. “That person is a witch!”

The boy covered his younger brother’s mouth and quickly disappeared deep into the alley.

‘You saw it. ‘I hunt.’

Chen Xia looked down at her hands.

Clean hands as usual.

However his hands were soaked in blood just moments ago.

I was used to it.

Killing others.

I was used to it.

Being an object of fear to someone.

The only thing that makes my heart flutter is…

‘It looks like you’ve had a deep dream for the past year.’

It seems I was momentarily blinded by the dazzling days of the year.

‘okay.’

Chen Xia clenched her fists.

‘My place is here.’

I closed my eyes.

The faces of my friends with whom I studied for a year came to mind.

Finally the image of a boy came to mind.

A person who seems like he was born to be a hero.

A pure white person whose surroundings are always full of light and hope.

‘I… can’t end up being like Colonel Leo.’

Born differently.

Thinking like that Chen Xia disappeared into the darkness.

“Whoa.”

Riina sighed deeply.

“It’s a pain in the ass.”

Putting on her uniform she tugged at the tie around her neck and loosened it.

“Accidents start happening in the first month of term.”

Riina with an annoyed expression on her face took out a bottle of alcohol from the cupboard next to the office table.

And as I poured myself a glass of wine I got lost in thought.

‘Are they going to do what they want in the end?’

As Riina sat on her desk she saw an envelope containing a letter from the Shan Empire.

The content of the letter was simple.

It was a letter containing the information that Shan’s princess Chen Xia was resigning from school.

‘It must be the Emperor’s intention that he does not want to leak Shan’s talent to the outside world.’

Shan’s royal family lives in complete secrecy.

Only the emperor can appear to the world.

Even the person who will become the next emperor cannot appear in the world until he becomes emperor.

A Shan tradition that has been passed down for thousands of years.

And among the Shan royal family those with talent who did not become emperor live their lives as shadows not heroes.

That was the Shan tradition.

‘I don’t understand that country.’

Riina also lived half her life as Rumern’s shadow.

At first she too was a student at Rumern.

However Lumern’s Shadow side made an offer to Riina who was about to graduate.

She accepted the offer and ended up living a life of shadow.

‘If it were me I wouldn’t let my children do dirty work and let them live in bright light!’

If there was an emperor in front of me right now I would want to scold him.

It’s not that I regret living as a shadow.

She too has walked a bloody path but she has never thought it was wrong.

Even if she goes back to the past she will live a life of shadow.

but….

‘I’m not pushing my kids down that path on purpose.’

If we only look at his grades as a freshman Chen Xia is an excellent hero candidate.

A talented person who can walk the path of a hero is pushed down the path of shadow.

‘That country is clearly out of its mind.’

Riina sighed deeply.

‘The biggest problem is that Chen Xia herself has the will to quit being a hero candidate.’

You can’t force something you don’t like.

Moreover the opponent is not just a famous family of heroes but the royal family of the Shan Empire.

Moreover her status is that of a princess.

‘First of all I have no choice but to go and see for myself….’

It was when Riina had that thought.

dripping-

“Come in.”

The door opened with a knock.

Riina looked puzzled when she saw the person who came to the principal’s office.

“What is the student council president doing at this hour? “There will be classes.”

“I fell in.”

“They say he is the best honors student in Lumerun history but he has a surprisingly bad side.”

“The principal has been drinking since daytime right?”

Riina who had been shaking her drink at Leo’s words put it down and said.

“Because something like that happened.”

Riina got down from her desk and pointed to the guest sofa.

“Sit down. “There must be a reason why the student council president came to see me.”

Leo sat on the sofa.

“okay. “Why did you come to me?”

“This is a story about Chen Xia.”

“Chen Xia.”

Riina who buried her back on the sofa said.

“Did you hear the story from Sena’s dormitory director? “I might drop out due to family circumstances.”

“yes.”

“Then there is nothing you can do even if you are the student council president. There’s nothing special about Lumern. As it is an educational institution it teaches qualified students. “You can’t teach an unqualified student.”

“Does that qualification refer to your own will? Or are you saying it’s a tendency?”

“What do you mean?”

“I think Chen Xia is trying to drop out because she is a shadow.”

“….”

Riina’s face changed subtly at Leo’s words.

“Chen Xia said?”

“no. “I vaguely felt that way.”

“That’s amazing. After all the youngest student council president is different but what’s the difference?”

Riina stroked her chin and admired it.

“Then I don’t understand it even more? “Don’t you know very well that heroes and shadows have the same goal but they can never mix ideologically?”

Riina smiled brightly.

“There are many hero candidates who hate shadows.”

It was as he said.

Among the hero candidates there is a student with myelophobia who hates shadows.

What the shadows do is far from heroic.

“Extremists in particular are a big problem. They do not hesitate to commit torture and massacre. “There are many cases where innocent people are harmed in the name of eradicating traitors.”

Riina sneered and looked at Leo.

“It seems to me Leo Plov. “Are you saying you were born to be a hero?”

Riina clenched her chin and crossed her legs.

“Is the reason you’re interested in Chen Xia because you’re a friend? There’s no need to get involved in anything related to the shadows. “You just have to be a noble hero.”

“He is a noble hero….”

Leo made an amused expression.

“The person who says that is very good at accepting shadow candidates into Lumern.”

Riina’s cool gaze landed on Leo.

“I noticed it from the moment I went to lead the group. “Some juniors were raised as shadows.”

Riina chuckled.

“Radicals are also among heroes. There are many heroes who slaughter innocent people. The only difference is whether there was a cause or not. “It looks the same to me.”

“It’s the same?”

Riina made an amused expression.

“yes. Hero or shadow. What’s different about both?”

“You think something interesting?”

Riina chuckled.

“okay. In terms of fighting Tartarus the hero and the shadow are the same. but….”

Riina’s eyes narrowed.

“There is a crucial difference between the two.”

“Critical difference?”

“okay.”

Rina got up from her seat grabbed the glass of alcohol she had placed on her desk and poured the contents into her mouth.

Then he looked at Leo and said.

“No matter how great a feat a shadow accomplishes its name cannot be included in the hero record.”

Riina sighed deeply.

“God praises the feats of heroes but not the feats of shadows.”

widely-

Riina put down her drink and smiled bitterly.

“The shadow means being abandoned by God.”
