    “If the Giant King Geas has really appeared wouldn’t it be dangerous to conduct training for the second year students of the Hero Academy right now?”

    Mel said in a worried voice.

    The commanders of Tartarus are thrilling monsters in themselves but what is even more threatening is the demon legions led by the commanders.

    If the corps commander moved there is a high probability that the corps that followed him would also move.

    “You don’t have to worry about that. Even if he really moved the probability that he would have moved his army is extremely low.”

    “Why?”

    “The only time Geas moves his legion is for war.”

    During the time of disaster.

    Leo participated in numerous wars against Tartarus.

    In the era of disaster war with demons was a daily occurrence.

    However during those many wars the number of enemies faced by the Giant King’s legions was so small that one could count them on one’s fingers.

    “If something as big as that moves people are bound to find it. That’s why you need to move carefully. Naturally we have no choice but to be cautious in moving the corps.”

    Leo narrowed his eyes.

    “Of course his personality may have changed over the past 5000 years… but seeing as he has never left his name in history his personality has not changed.”

    Mel nodded at Leo’s words.

    “Even so it would be better to be on guard. “Can you keep an eye on Mount Mel Erdien?”

    At those words Mel bent her knees and slightly lowered her head.

    “I will do as you ask Leo.”

    ***

    In the tavern the dwarves of Tarkham were drinking and chatting happily.

    There are numerous classes in Tarkham.

    Starting with artisans who make weapons miners work in merchant mines.

    In addition there are warriors who subdue monsters.

    However since it was at the end of the dwarf territory it was very rare to see other races.

    Therefore all the dwarves looked at the people entering the tavern with curious eyes.

    thud!

    “100 million!”

    Carl who was leading the way into the tavern hit his head on the low door.

    “Are you okay?”

    “Pathetic!”

    Eyran was embarrassed and approached the knife and Driana burst into laughter looking at the knife.

    Eyran summoned his magic power and placed his hand on Karl’s forehead.

    Driana also took out ointment from her arms.

    “Do this correctly. “The swelling will go down soon.”

    “Thank you.”

    Carl applied the ointment Driana gave him to his forehead.

    Runia and Ar muttered as they looked at the subtly low ceiling and small furniture.

    “It feels like a dwarven city.”

    “It’s different from Dweronia?”

    Dweronia’s buildings were not much different from those of other races.

    Looking at the two girls expressing doubts Driana laughed heartily.

    “As Dweronia is a city visited by many other races there are many buildings that meet the standards of other races so it just doesn’t stand out. “It is literally a city that is a collection of arts where many cultures come together in one place.”

    “That has nothing to do with art.”

    Runia tackled him but Driana didn’t listen.

    “But Tarkham is a completely dwarven city. Since other races rarely come everything is geared toward the dwarves.”

    Saying that Driana went to an empty seat and sat down.

    It was a subtly small desk and chair but when Driana sat on it it felt like it was just the right size.

    Of course when the other party members sat down it became quite comical.

    “The spoon and fork are also small.”

    Eiran was amazed.

    “The drinking glass is just too big.”

    Carl muttered as he looked at the glasses the dwarves were drinking.

    Meanwhile a clerk came over and took our order.

    I ordered something to eat and waited.

    Meanwhile the eyes of the dwarves in the tavern were focused on the group.

    Other races are rare in Tarkham.

    However if the other race was even a famous hero academy student there was bound to be even more interest.

    That was when the dwarves were looking at the group with curious eyes and making noise.

    “Is it my turn to step forward?”

    The proud Karl stood up.

    “I’ll go and listen to some rumors.”

    Carl who spoke confidently approached the dwarf who was enjoying a drink alone.

    “hello?

    “Hey~ human. Looking at the clothes you’re wearing you’re a Lumerun student right? “Human hero candidate why did you come to a place like this?”

    When a dwarf who appeared to be a miner spoke to him Carl spoke in a friendly manner.

    “I came here for mission training. “I heard that a huge monster appeared in Tarkham!”

    “It showed up! But that’s a rumor! “Where is such a big monster?”

    Carl chuckled looking at the dwarf who was laughing.

    “But there are probably a lot of rumors right? Please tell me a story. “I’ll buy you a beer.”

    “Oh! A friend with attitude! good!”

    The dwarf seemed to like Carl’s friendliness and willingly told him about the rumor.

    Eiran was amazed when he saw that.

    “As expected Carl is amazing!”

    “I can do that too.”

    Runia answered sullenly.

    Driana said after seeing that.

    “Aren’t ladies from a prestigious elf family like you good at things like that?”

    “joy. Look carefully. “I’ll do it right.”

    Runia got up from her seat and approached the other dwarves.

    “Hey. I am a student who was dispatched from Seirun this time due to rumors about giant monsters. Could you tell us a story about that? “If you do that I will buy you alcohol today.”

    “Go away. “I’m not so needy that I need to get a drink.”

    Runia returned with a shocked expression.

    “Why did it fail?”

    “I think your attitude was too authoritarian. “The other person was in a bad mood.”

    Runia was taken aback by Driana’s point.

    “How authoritarian is my attitude? “The elves all kindly let us know when we did this!”

    “That’s because you are Seirun’s student. Besides dwarves and elves are basically on bad terms. “Seyrun’s business card doesn’t work here.”

    “Ugh!”

    It was when Runia shrugged her shoulders.

    Are is hehehehehe! He smiled and crossed his arms.

    “As expected a good elf girl can’t do this! Watch what I do!”

    Runia looked at Ar who was proud and looked angry.

    Ar walked confidently towards the three dwarf mercenaries.

    “hello! Cool guys! “I have a question!”

    “what! mister?!”

    “We’re women!”

    “You damn cat!”

    “Unyak?!”

    The dwarf mercenaries who were drunk were excited by Ar’s words and attacked.

    Surprised Ar apologized frantically and then came back in tears.

    “Everyone can see that they are women but you call them old men? fool.”

    “That’s so stupid!”

    “Don’t call me stupid!”

    Ar shouted with a red face at the words of Runia and Driana.

    “I’ll try it this time.”

    “Airan. What’s going on? “You’re so active in this.”

    When Runia asked with a surprised face Eiran spoke in a tense voice.

    “I… actually wanted to try something like this!”

    With sparkling eyes Eiran approached an old dwarf.

    “I’m worried.”

    Runia muttered.

    However Eiran came back after chatting happily with the old dwarf.

    “Airan! Are you good at it? so? “Did you hear the story?”

    “yes! “I’ve heard a lot of new stories about Dweno!”

    Runia let out a deep sigh as she looked at Eiran who had lost his purpose and was happy like a child who had just heard a story from his grandfather.

    “You said you were Driana right? “You try it too.”

    “Why should I waste my energy when a desperate man is treating me well?”

    Driana shrugged.

    It was an extremely reasonable statement.

    At that time Leo who had returned to the bar sat down and said.

    “Are you having a good time?”

    “I’m not playing! “Are you collecting information?”

    Runia glanced at Leo.

    Meanwhile Carl approached me with a bright smile on his face.

    “I’m back! “Leo was there?”

    “Looking at your face it seems like you were satisfied with the results.”

    “Heh of course.”

    “and! It’s amazing. Carl. “We all failed!”

    Eiran was impressed.

    Carl looked at this with a shocked expression.

    “No why fail when you can just ask…?”

    “ruler! ruler! So I heard a story!”

    “okay! “Go on and say it!”

    Runia and Ar quickly changed the topic.

    Looking at the two Karl said “Ahem!” He cleared his throat and said.

    “First of all it looks like it wasn’t just the guard standing guard at the time who saw that monster.”

    “what?”

    “They say there are many people in the city who saw that monster. “It seems like most people are drunk because it’s late.”

    Hearing Karl’s words Eiran shrank his neck as if he was a little scared.

    “If there are that many witnesses isn’t it really a monster? “Something like the giant king of Tartarus.”

    “no. “It won’t be the Giant King.”

    Runia shook her head.

    “I don’t know how huge the Giant King was. Anyway wouldn’t it be so big that it would be called the King of Giants? When a monster of that size moves through space a wave of magical power is bound to remain. But they said the monster disappeared in the blink of an eye.”

    Runia crossed her arms.

    “Maybe it was a group vision.”

    Driana nodded at Runia’s words.

    “That makes sense.”

    “What happened to the drunks who saw that monster afterwards?”

    “I sobered up but it disappeared from sight in an instant so I guess I just thought I saw it wrong.”

    “What is the current condition of the guards you saw on the castle wall?”

    Carl crossed his arms in response to Leo’s question.

    “Everyone is in the hospital because they are delirious.”

    “Delirium is a symptom of seeing a high-ranking demon right?”

    “Can you tell me about that hospital?”

    “It’s hard right now. “I’ll find out by tomorrow morning.”

    “thank you.”

    Leo nodded.

    ‘First of all it is important whether the Giant King really came to Mount Erdien or not. If he fell into fear and went into delirium as a result of seeing the Giant King a faint trace of his dark magic would remain. If he really moved… there must be a reason why he moved. If it’s something that he can move himself…’

    Leo’s eyes narrowed.

    ‘It’s definitely something that could upset the current balance.’

    ***

    thud-! thud-!

    In the middle of the night the earth shook.

    A huge monster that seemed to reach the sky was moving.

    thud-!

    Giant King Gias stopped walking and looked up at the sky.

    It was not a pure white moon floating in the sky.

    An extremely ominous red moon.

    The monster opened its mouth as it looked at the moon.

    Gwaoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

    A terrifying roar echoed in all directions.

    Joy appeared in Geas’ eyes.

    The red moon seen for the first time in 5000 years was enough to make Gias feel a sense of elation.

    What an indulgence of freedom I have enjoyed for the first time in a while!

    The era when that red moon rose in the night sky was their era.

    A time when there was no need to hide!

    A time when this world was theirs!

    Even though he returned to that era Geas was not satisfied.

    Freedom in this fake world. It was not true freedom.

    “I miss you! “It’s our time!”

    Geas cried out remembering the hateful people who usurped their era.

    “I will get revenge on you this time.”

    The corners of his mouth were distorted hideously.

    “Wait God’s blacksmith.”
