385.
God’s Lawn.
It was humanity’s last stronghold and the beginning of a spark of hope.
A great impregnable fortress that was literally called the Land of Hope.
But God’s Lawn wasn’t a great place from the beginning either.
‘No it was a mess at first.’
Leo who took a seat at God’s Lawn’s bar smiled bitterly.
This Guard Throne was no different.
The reason this place was able to remain even though it was on the brink of destruction was not for any particular reason.
‘It’s just because I was lucky.’
The reason Tartarus didn’t reach us until the end was because we were all lucky.
Although it was a land called many glorious titles it was not much different from other final cities until then.
Security was the worst and many refugees were flooding in.
Resources were limited.
Crucially there was a fear that it might lead to destruction at any moment.
But even so it is a place where people live.
There were taverns where those who fought on the battlefield could quench their thirst and fill their stomachs.
A time when you never know when the fortress will collapse and everyone will perish.
Drinking alcohol may have seemed absurd.
‘But it was also a time when it was difficult to stay sane and get through each day without drinking too much.’
As such there was no hope left in this world.
Literally the edge of a cliff.
The era that Leo entered now was such an era.
The great raid of Tartarus has ended.
After that any bar will be crowded with people.
But there was no one at the tavern/inn where Leo was now.

At most there was only Leo sitting at the table.
The elf who ran the bar put down two large rough drinking glasses on the table and went to the counter and sat down with his legs crossed.
This was also the favorite bar of Kyle the surviving hero.
‘I was indebted to you just before the last journey.’
Leo smiled bitterly as he looked at an acquaintance from beyond his memory.
“I’m sorry. I’m sorry.”
At that time Lisinas came down from the second floor.
“I was just doing something for a while.”
Lisinas sat in front of Leo with a somewhat reassuring smile.
‘Did you come to write a memoir?’
Lisinas wrote down everything about the era of disaster.
And today is the day I joined the party.
Leo burst into laughter as he recalled the memories of that day.
“Today is the historic day that we founded the punitive force party so drink as much as you want. “I wish I could buy it for all my customers.”
Lisinas looked around.
“Since you and I are together there are no customers in this tavern.”
“The hero who survives is a symbol of misfortune and the foolish are shunned for spreading useless hope.”
“It is like that now. But soon the way they look at us will change. “This city will change too.”
Lisinas speaking with a voice full of strong will raised his glass.
“Now then before we have a serious conversation. “It starts now.”
Lisinas grinned.
‘This is the last time.’
“A toast to bless our future and the world’s hope.”
‘A toast to bless our future and the world’s hope.’
5000 years ago.
When I had my last drink with friends.
Leo looked silently at Lisinas who was giving the same congratulatory speech as then.
“…Kyle?”
Risinasu looked at Leo who was looking at him silently with a puzzled expression.
“Cheers.”
Tuk-!
The wooden drinking cup made a rough sound.
‘I never imagined that thousands of years after everyone died we would return to the time we first shared a drink.’
“Kyle?”
Lisinas who was sipping his drink asked in a slightly embarrassed voice.
“Is something good happening? “Why are you smiling like that?”
Leo’s eyes widened at the question but then he rested his chin and smiled.

“I just like it.”
Lisinas looked embarrassed.
‘He wasn’t like this?’
Lisinas knew Kyle’s personality well.
After chasing Kyle around to get him into the party for the past few weeks I’ve become quite sick of his twisted personality.
‘You’ve been telling me I’m a fool and a lizard. ‘You said all kinds of rude things.’
I felt like punching him in the face but I held back to make a good impression.
But a little while ago.
After blocking Guardslawn’s attack and joining the party it felt unfamiliar.
‘What do you think? Whatever it is the fact remains that this guy is a member of the punitive force I formed.’
Kyle the surviving hero.
His strength is already world famous.
The demons feel fear from him.
‘A true warrior who survived through countless battlefields.’
Lisinas wanted such colleagues.
After seeing Kyle in person I became even more determined to have him join the punitive force.
‘An unprecedented all-class class. He will definitely be a great help in the battle against Erebos.’
Thinking like that Lisinas said “Hmm!” I cleared my throat.
“Okay Kyle. Well then let’s talk a little more seriously. “It’s about the future.”
Lisinas put down his drink and crossed his arms.
Lisinas said with a serious expression.
“As you know my goal is to defeat Erebos and save this world. For that I really need you. “That’s why I recruited him to the party.”
“okay.”
“but. “You and I alone are not enough to save the world.”
Lisinas took a deep breath and spoke firmly.
“So we need strong companions to join us on the journey.”
“Do you have any candidates in mind?”
“Of course we need a wizard first.”
Lisinas opened subspace and unfolded the map.
A world map from 5000 years ago.
Most of the land was painted black.
This is an area that was burned down by Erebos.
Among them Lisinas pointed to one area that had not yet been burned.
“This is the place. The forest home of the southern elves. A land cursed by the Demon Queen. Here there is ‘Luna Rubinance’ a genius elf mage. “Have you at least heard the name?”
“huh.”
“I heard she is a nobler elf than any other.”
‘…Now that I think about it there were rumors like that spreading at the time as well.’
“If we convey our wishes the noble woman will surely follow us on our journey.”
‘When I first met Luna he said something to me.’
‘Are you a thug? ‘What did I eat wrong that makes me think like that?’
Leo simply conveyed Lisinas’ intentions to Luna.
However it was not Lishinas who heard the noise but himself.
I felt unfair once again.
And then I saw Lishinas looking at the terrain now called the Forest of Monsters with a serious face.
Until then.
No until just before meeting Luna Lisinas had great expectations for Luna.
It has to be that way.
Because the first member that Lisinas brought to the party was himself who was twisted to death.
‘You probably didn’t know at the time. Luna was the most disobedient person in our party.’
“Do you have a strange look in your eyes?”
“What’s wrong with my eyes?”
Lisinas continued speaking with an uncertain expression on his face.
“The next member we need to add to the party is Agon the ‘Guardian of the Sky’ in Raysar.”
Agon the guardian of the sky.
Aron’s teacher he already had a reputation as a powerful hero even before the Age of Calamity.
The name he received because he protected the blue sky for a long time was ‘Guardian of the Sky.’
But when Lisinas and Kyle Luna visited him his will had already broken.
Aron joined the party in place of Agon.
“The Guardian of Changcheon is a great hero who has stopped countless demons. Always confident and brave. “He will be a reliable vanguard.”
‘Aron came in instead. In the big battle he played the role of a strong vanguard as Lisinas had hoped. Although he is more untrustworthy than anyone else in small battles.’
The overwhelming skills and courage he showed in a crisis situation were clearly superior to those of the vanguard of the punitive force.
‘Lisinas’ face during the first battle was worth seeing.’
Aron was scared and hid behind Lysinas.
Although he had great strength up to that time he was still an immature boy so there was nothing strange about it.
However after seeing the bickering Luna Lisinas’ expectations for the next party member became even more desperate so when he saw the scared Aron he looked like he was going to cry for the first time.
‘Luna laughed so hard when she saw that.’
“Why do you keep looking at me like that?”
“what?”
“Don’t look at me with pity.”
“I’ve never seen it like that.”
Lishinas narrowed his eyes at Leo’s words and said.
“The next thing we need is a blacksmith who can make powerful weapons. Of course since we are outnumbered we must also be warriors with overwhelming skills. There is only one man worthy of him. There are rumors that it is a slightly different species. “They say he’s a great person.”
‘It was nothing more than a little strange.’
‘Dweno I need your strength. We hope you’ll follow us on our journey.’
At their first meeting Dweno who was looking at Lisinas who had made a request as a dragon looked at Leo who came with him and said.
‘you.’
‘why?’
‘Are you lovers with this dragon’s wife?’
‘Me and this person are not that kind of relationship.’
‘Really?’
‘Never.’
‘Hmm.’
Dweno who was stroking his chin and looking at Lisinas with suspicion nodded.
‘i get it. Instead there is a condition black dragon.’
‘Speak Blacksmith Dweno.’
Dweno spoke with a face that was almost sublime.
‘Become a nude model.’
‘Did I hear wrong?’
‘You heard correctly. ‘Your beauty needs to be known to future generations.’
At that time Lisinas clearly had a prolific expression on his face.
‘Let’s go Kyle. ‘I don’t think it’s this guy.’
Kyle said as he picked up the sword lying around like trash in Dweno’s workshop.
‘It’s an amazing sword but why did you leave it like this?’
‘That was a failure. ‘It’s not beautiful.’
‘Do you think a failed work like this could be of great help?’
‘let’s go! A guy with a twisted personality! To a quip! Enough with being a coward! ‘It’s absolutely impossible for perverts like this to join in!’
Lisinas desperately tried to stop Leo.
‘Hey old man Dwarf. There’s an elf as beautiful as this one in our party. Would you like to come in?’
‘Hoo? If that’s the case it might be worth following along!’
‘Kyle!’
Dweno joined the party leaving behind the screaming Lisinas.
Leo looked at Lisinas with pitiful eyes.
“So why do you keep looking at me like that?”
“…I thought saving the world wouldn’t be easy.”
“of course. Instead of thinking about unnecessary things what do you think about your fellow candidates who will work with you in the future?”
“…I think they’ll be great guys.”
“yes? “It will be different from someone with a messy personality like you.”
Rishinas who had suffered something from Leo spoke with some emotion.
“…okay. “It’s definitely different from a guy with a messy personality like me.”
Later Lisinas confessed while drinking.
The guy who I was sure had the worst first impression turned out to be the most decent one.
