Legendary Hero is an Academy Honors Student – 527
by Jessie@AFNCC
527.
Grumble! Crack! Crack! Kugugoong!
A burning mansion.
The surrounding area was literally a sea of fire.
“Aaaaaah!”
In it Berkia cried holding in her arms the person she loved more than anyone else and her child born with that person.
Leo approached Berkia and got down on one knee.
And then he stretched out his hand and tried to put his hand on Berkia’s shoulder.
However Leo’s hand passes through Berkia in vain.
As a mere observer in this world there was nothing Leo could do.
“sorry.”
His shoulders are shaking and he offers an apology that cannot be reached.
It is not Berkia’s fault for trying to create a brighter world.
It’s not even Leo’s fault.
but….
The saved world is not so bright.
A world without darkness is not always beautiful.
Couldn’t this have been prevented if we had been notified in advance?
‘A bright child does not need to know the dirtiness of the world.’ If only I hadn’t had this complacent thought.
Couldn’t this tragedy have been avoided?
“I’m sorry I’m sorry.”
With his head down Leo cried breathlessly.
***
Attack of the monster queen Silatuna.
Fairy Knight Berkia lost her family accordingly.
Everyone was angry.

I was angry at Tartarus’ actions in harming the family of a great hero.
However Silatuna ran away from the spot where he encountered Berkia.
This is not an opponent you can beat in a fight.
Because the Demon Queen just wanted to ‘vent her anger’.
Countless memorial processions followed.
This led to Berkia’s retirement.
Many people lamented as the great hero’s disciple and the hero who led this world withdrew from the front line.
Instead of going they asked me to lead them and clung to them.
But Berkia was too tired.
“I don’t think I can power up for the world anymore.”
With a tired smile Berkia disappeared from public places.
Someone was sad.
Someone else was happy.
***
“It’s been a while.”
“Yeah it’s been a while.”
Ten years have passed since the terrible incident.
Bihar visited his friend’s house after a long time.
A room in a mansion.
Berkia poked her second child who was asleep in a small bed on the cheek.
Berkia’s daughter who was sleeping turns over.
Berkia smiled softly as she looked down at that figure.
“That child has grown up a lot.”
“huh. You summoned a spirit a while ago? “I’m not good at summoning so I’m at a loss as to how to teach you.”
Berkia smiled happily.
Bihar who was looking at Berkia opened his mouth.
“Shall we talk?”
Sigh-
Berkia stood up at those words.
And he nodded.
The two people moved and headed to the study of the mansion.
The high moonlight illuminates the inside of the study.
Berkia said while looking at it.
“A lot has changed.”
“huh?”
“Earlier the eyes of Bihar were dark… but now they are shining.”
“ah….”

“It’s nice to see.”
Berkia spoke with sincerity.
“It seems like I found something in this world.”
Bihar said that.
“Are you… are you okay?”
Berkia’s gaze turned downward.
“War has been constant for the past 10 years. “After you retired conflicts of interest broke out all over the world.”
They aimed their weapons at each other and fought.
“But recently the war has decreased noticeably.”
The main culprits of the war were all murdered by someone.
As if someone was passing judgment.
“Berkia you told me after that happened 10 years ago right? “Don’t look for the culprit.”
“huh.”
10 years ago.
Attack of the monster queen Silatuna.
At that time Berkia lost her beloved companion and child.
It was the Demon Queen who killed the two people.
However normally the Demon Queen would not have dared to invade Berkia’s territory.
Berkia’s power had already surpassed that of the corps commander.
Even the vicious monster queen who has been destroying the world since the Age of Calamity is nothing more than prey before Berkia’s sword.
Not only the Monster Queen but any other Tartarus entity could not dare to invade Berkia’s territory.
Even if they invaded they couldn’t avoid Berkia’s senses.
“It was impossible unless there was a traitor inside.”
Vihar said in a heavy voice.
Berkia said while looking at Bihar.
“I needed to wait until Benny grew up.”
Berkia closed her eyes remembering her daughter who was in her stomach at the time.
“Because I thought that if I crossed the border I would definitely not be able to return.”
“There was no need for you to cross the border. “That’s me…!”
“No Bihar.”
Berkia opened her eyes and looked at Bihar.
“That was my job.”
“….”
“They didn’t betray the world. “He just wanted to make me step down because he wanted to lead the world the way he wanted.”
Berkia grinned.
“So that’s what I’m going to do.”
“Okay I understand. But… your anger may not have subsided… but you’ve already punished all those who committed crimes right?”
Bihar’s voice trembled.
“But why did you punish people who didn’t matter?”
A war that lasted 10 years.
The war stopped overnight.
Many people who were suffering from war found their breath.
But on the other hand there were also places where screams poured out.
Those in power who led the war.
Those who think nothing of the lives of others for their own greed.
At first beheadings were carried out on those who deserved death.
But more and more the blade lost its mercy.
Someone passed judgment on those who committed sins.
And Vihar knew very well that the person making that judgment was the friend in front of him.
It is true that sin must be judged.
‘But this way is wrong.’
Hearing Bihar’s words Berkia turned and said.
“I’ve been thinking about it for 10 years. What went wrong? I definitely did my best. “The teachers…were more passionate than anyone else about properly cultivating the world that the great heroes had handed down to us.”
Berkia’s eyes sank.
“I wonder why it happened like this.”
Berkia’s voice became gloomy.
“And then I realized. That it is not only those who betray the world in the dark that are eating away at this world. “Traitors aren’t the only ones who deserve to die.”
Berkia’s eyes glowed eerily.
“Those who should not live are also in the light.”
Bihar took his breath away from the death in that voice.
“Countless people have sacrificed for this era.”
“Ber… Kia.”
“So in this era only the upright should live. “All those who are worthless…”
“Berkhia!”
Vihar grabbed Berkia’s shoulders and shouted.
“I understand how you feel! There are definitely people who eat this world! But… but…”
Berkia’s thoughts are excessive now.
Not only is it not like her at all but she will probably run away someday.
“You have to accept this too. Master… he must have taken all the great heroes into consideration when saving the world. So… let’s stop. It shouldn’t be like that. Especially you…”
Berkia lowered her head as she looked at Bihar speaking with tears in her eyes.
His slender shoulders trembled and he soon became out of breath.
“why…? why? why?! why!!! Why not!? Lisinas! Dweno! Master Aron! Master Luna! Master Kyle! Those who should have enjoyed this peace more than anyone else passed away without enjoying anything! But why do these garbage people live by eating away at the world they inherited? Why are they enjoying it all? Why do I have to watch that!? why?! why!”
Berkia burning with hatred shook off Bihar’s hand.
It wasn’t just anger.
Berkia simply could not tolerate it.
Kyle and Luna were like my parents.
They live under the sacrifice of great heroes who were like family and act shamelessly.
There is an absurdity happening that ridicules and tramples on those who work hard every day.
It was an insult to great heroes.
It was an act of trampling on the sacrifices of great heroes.
‘iced coffee.’
Bihar’s face contorted as if he was crying.
Even after the world was saved he who lived only in darkness saw light in that darkness.
On the contrary Berkia found darkness in light.
And the darkness was so deep.
The hatred that arose in my heart due to the incident 10 years ago grew bigger and bigger.
Vihar pursed his lips and clenched his fists.
‘We have to stop it.’
If left like this Berkia will run away.
It will never go back to the way it was.
“I… will stop you.”
“You know best! The ugliness of this world! You understand! “Then why are you stopping me!”
Hatred and anger began pouring out like a dam bursting towards Bihar.
It’s as if he doesn’t understand his friend who is blocking him.
There was a clash between the two men.
The fight ended in Berkia’s victory.
and….
Bihar died from the aftereffects of this fight.
***
“….”
The memory shown by the Akasha Record ended and Leo opened his eyes.
Lian was sitting on the floor cutting jewelry in silence.
“…It’s a disease.”
“You figured it out.”
Dalkak-
Lian who had put Bihar’s statue down on the floor looked up at Leo.
“Bihar was already in shambles due to the disease. “Even if he hadn’t fought Berkia he would have died soon.”
“okay.”
Leo made a confused expression.
Ryan placed the statue of Berkia next to that of Bihar.
“Berkiah didn’t live long either. “She also didn’t have much life left.”
“….”
“But I made countless referees. In conclusion it was right. Because her judgment led the world in the right direction.”
“But Berkia himself died unfortunately.”
“You died in the darkness. “Unfortunately.”
Lian flicked the statue of Berkia and knocked it over with a flick of his finger.
Tuk-!
“She was a great hero. “But the world broke her.”
Lian looked up at Leo.
“Leo. I’m not asking this because Leo is Berkia’s teacher. “I ask you this as someone who has watched the life of a great hero who carried the world on his shoulders.”
Rian stood up and bowed his head.
“Please rest in her peace.”
As the manager of Hero Records Rian also understood that Berkia had become undead and was running amok.
At Lian’s words Leo approached Lian and knelt down.
And then he placed his hand on the fallen piece of Berkia.
“How can I give him rest? “Whether it’s having your head pounded or your ass kicked you have to come to your senses.”
“Not even Leo’s words will reach her.”
Lian said in a puzzled voice.
Berkia knew that her choice was wrong.
But I just couldn’t bear it.
Anger directed at those who caused the death of their loved ones.
Hatred directed at those who trample on the sacrifices of great heroes.
The guilt of causing the death of a close friend who studied under the same teacher.
They are holding on to the ankles of Berkia who has already crossed the line that cannot be crossed.
I was immersed in darkness so deep that I could not be saved.
“It doesn’t matter if my words don’t reach you. “I told you.”
Leo raised the statue of Berkia upright.
“It is the teacher’s responsibility to correct the student’s mistakes.”
“…Are you not disappointed with Berkia?”
“I already had enough of disappointment when I was teaching.”
Leo chuckled.
“and.”
Leo stood up and smiled softly.
“Even if she is disappointed she is my student and like my daughter. “Isn’t it natural to hold a child’s hand and help him or her up after falling?”
At that sight Lian opened his mouth in a daze.
‘Ah as expected this person.’
“I tried saving the world but I’m afraid I won’t be able to save that arrogant elf.”
‘It must be greater than the Creator.’
