The day after training.
Ha-jun led his tired body to the classroom where the afternoon class was held.
Is it because I slept in a tired position for 3 days in this survival training?
Even when I slept well, I didn’t feel refreshed because my whole body ached.
“ah… … I want to rest.”
Should I just take a day off? Thinking about it, his body was heading towards the classroom.
Fortunately, this afternoon’s class was a writing class, so I didn’t have to move much.
Drooling-
I opened the door to the classroom and sat down.
I closed my eyes and tried to sleep until the instructor came, but Ha-jun’s eyes began to widen at the words written on the blackboard.
“what?”
There were only two letters, ‘Self-study’.
I thought something was strange.
Instructor Lee Han I know wouldn’t have anything to do with self-study unless something happened… … .
Thinking about it, I prepared myself to sleep with my face on the desk.
Honestly, whatever it is, isn’t it a self-study first?
The only time I can sleep in class.
Hajun fell asleep without thinking too deeply.
How many minutes have passed?
“There, you sleeping. Get up.”
At the voice of a woman who was expected to be an instructor, Ha-jun gently rubbed his eyes and raised his head.
‘yes?’
Then he rubbed his eyes when he saw something strange and looked at the front of the school table.
what? Did I see it wrong?
Ha-jun pinched his cheek and looked at a girl standing in front of the school table.
Ha-jun’s expression slowly hardened, recognizing that it was not a dream for a moment.
‘why? Is that person over there?’
* * *
The principal’s office of the Loki Academy.
There was a stillness in the principal’s office.
Principal Choi Joong-won was sitting facing the woman sitting across from him, drinking calm tea.
“It’s been a while, I didn’t know you would come here without contact.”
At those words, the woman sitting in front raised the corners of her lips and savored the tea on the table.
The woman who quietly put down her teacup said to Choi Joong-won with an alluring smile.
“Well, it’s not that rare.”
Shiny green eyes, light green hair with lustrous sheen, white skin and vividly lively cheeks.
This girl, who appears to be in her late teens wherever she looks, is surprisingly the same age as Choi Joong-won in front of her.
“Heh heh, that’s rare. For those of you who like hermitage, Riella.”
One of Britain’s great heroes who calmed the chaos in the past, and the highest peak of summoners, Riela Harness.
She, who is hiding out of the world, secretly entered Korea and visited the academy.
“So what happened?”
So, Choi Joong-won was curious.
It is very rare for her to come out like this, who used to enjoy a hermit life locked up in a dimensional space.
“Since you’ve moved here, isn’t it normal?”
Riella Harness is almost freed from the world and lives in the dimensional space she has created.
At the same time, it is also rumored to be the most reluctant to move among the great heroes.
To put it noble, it’s out of the world, and to say the least, it’s just that you don’t want to stay home.
Therefore, he was one of the heroes whose face was not well known externally among the great heroes.
“I wonder… … .”
In any case, it would not be common to say that she moved, no matter what.
Choi Joong-won looked at Riella with a serious face, and then Riella opened her mouth with a fresh smile.
“Are you going to deceive me?”
“… … What do you mean?”
“Isn’t the academy raising monsters?”
Choi Joong-won looked at Riella with a calm expression.
Looking at Choi Joong-won like that, Riella continued.
“Looks right.”
“It’s not exactly what I raised. The child is growing on his own.”
“But this time it went too far.”
“Are you going too far? What do you mean?”
“Don’t even think about taking it off. Because I already know everything.”
Choi Joong-won looked at Riella with a genuinely questionable expression.
If I say monster, I’m sure I’m talking about cadet Kim Ha-jun, but it felt strangely out of line with the conversation.
Soon after, she opened her mouth with a confident smile.
“Is there a cadet who signed a contract with Shinsoo? Here at the academy.”
There was a strange silence at those words.
Choi Joong-won looked at Riella with a rigid expression.
After looking at it for a while, I had no choice but to ask if I had just heard correctly.
“… … Shinsoo? Did you say god?”
“okay. In fact, I have already checked my face. Surely it was Lee Joo-ah? That kid is for sure.”
Lee Joo-ah was a cadet that Choi Joong-won knew.
A child of the Jiwon Department, and even more famous as the younger sister of the student council president.
And I heard that you passed the promotion test and entered the Combat and Special Class… … .
‘There was a reason… … .’
It does not appear to be a result of mere effort alone.
Choi Joong-won looked at Riella again and said.
“Hmm… … riella. What would you like to do with that child?”
Riella smiled softly at those words.
“I am going to take you as my disciple.”
At that, Choi Joong-won calmly nodded his head.
He didn’t express it, but inside he was quite surprised.
“This is the first time you have made disciples.”
“Probably my first disciple. He’s worth that much.”
“Right… … . Whoa, then, do you plan on staying here for a while?”
“okay. Take care of yourself.”
With those words, Riella stood up from her seat.
Riella quietly leaves the door.
Suddenly, Choi Joong-won called Riella like that and opened her mouth.
“Riela, your teachings are difficult for anyone to accept, so please do me a favor. Can you take a look at the other children?”
“You must have a child you like.”
“Hmm… … Then why don’t you make a bet with me?”
“A bet? What bet are you talking about?”
At those words, the corners of Choi Joong-won’s lips slowly rose.
Choi Joong-won said to Riella with a confident smile.
“There are cadets in the first year that I keep an eye on.”
“Hmm… … You mean you’re interested?”
“It’s not that interesting. At least I think he will become a symbol of peace in this country on my behalf.”
Riella was surprised by the words.
At Choi Joong-won’s words, Riella also smiled and asked Choi Joong-won.
“So what’s the bet?”
“Find out who the child is.”
“Hmm… … What are the wagering conditions?”
“I’m going to ask you to do it.”
“Fun, your request must be to teach the children… … Please consider my request gradually.”
* * *
‘why? Is that person over there?’
“Nice to meet you. This is Riella Harness.”
At the very brief self-introduction, the children looked at the girl standing in front of the school table with expressions as if they had heard something for a moment.
Sure enough, a girl the same age as them was saying that he was one of the great heroes.

Most of them were children who simply did not believe and questioned her, but even among those children, a few who recognized her began to tremble as if in shock.
“Hey! Lee, Riella Harness?”
One of them was Anna.
When Anna, a British princess, spoke with a trembling voice with a shocked expression, the children noticed and opened their mouths in amazement.
“Well, is it really true?”
“Oh my gosh!”
“Ha, but I heard that you were in hiding… … .”
This one is for that lil chicken owl
New priest Riella Harness.
Perhaps the cadets in this class have heard the name, but most of them do not even know the face. Even among the great heroes, the temperament of hiding is so strong that they have lived in the dimensional space for well over 10 years.
“Yeah, I’m happy too. I heard a lot from Choi Joong-won about you. There are definitely a lot of talented kids out there.”
Children who can’t contain their excitement at those words.
There were even children who were moved to tears by a simple compliment. Even so, she is the most unknown and mysterious being among the great heroes, and she is the hero who achieved the greatest achievements in the age of chaos.
Said one of the heroes of a bygone era.
If it wasn’t for her among the heroes who put the chaos to rest, it wouldn’t have been possible to stop the chaos in the first place.
Among the great heroes, she was the person who had the greatest influence in preventing the great chaos.
“Come on, come on, calm down. Shouldn’t I be able to speak before proceeding? I came here to check out your skills.”
With those words, Riella looks around the children.
In fact, whenever Riella looked into the eyes, the children could not contain their excitement and began to rejoice that they saw themselves.
For a moment, Ha-jun was confused whether this was an idol concert hall or not.
‘under… … But why is she really here?’
The appearance of Riella Harness was at least a long way off.

Moreover, it was not like he suddenly came to the academy and appeared.
At least now, it was certain that there was a big change that I was unaware of.
‘The system is going to be crazy again… … .’
“Hmm… … .”
Contrary to Ha-joon’s heartbreak, Riella was watching several children with an interesting expression.
‘Right… … Choi Joong-won definitely deserves interest.’
A boy born with the fate of a sword, a sage of future generations, a boy favored by a Noble Phantasm, and a girl with a foreign energy, not magical power.
There were certainly several children that Choi Joong-won would be interested in.
Of course, there is only one child who caught his eye among them.
A quiet and noble girl among those children.
‘I’m looking forward to… … .’
I could see it with my eyes.
What is the divine beast she contracted with?
‘I’m sure it’s him.’
Fenrir.
Arang devours the world where he failed to sign a contract.
It was this young girl who made a contract that even herself, called Shinsusa, failed.
In an instant, a desire to explore began to sprout in Riella’s eyes.
‘It’s not like this. What are you doing right… … .’
After calming the rising desire for exploration, she said while swiping around the children around her.
“Then I want to check your skills, so go all out to the training ground.”
* * *
The children of the limited express class gathered in a large auditorium.
They were all waiting for Riella to speak with nervous expressions on their faces.
“Hey, you sure are well equipped. This will be fine.”
After looking around the entire auditorium once, Riella nodded with satisfaction and turned to the children.
“This old man is curious, so there is no need to be too nervous. I just want to see how good you are.”
Riella clapped her hands with those words.
At that moment, a light green fluttering summoning circle was drawn in the air, and a hawk appeared.
A hawk that appeared wearing a shimmering green aura.
All the children began to admire the summons she had summoned.
Riella said to those children.
“I simply want to know your skills, so I would like each of you to face the summoned beasts one by one. It’s not a test, so there’s no need to be nervous… … Still, I want to see your sincerity, so I hope you do your best.”
With those words, Riella showed a friendly smile.
she went on to say
“Come out one by one, starting with the confident child. I will also adjust my strength according to the child’s strength.”
