I'm not a hero, but I didn't say I couldn't beat you.

"Kaos..."

Du Leiin muttered the name softly and subconsciously turned his head to look out the window.

It's like time has gone back in time.

["Hey! Kaos! I took on a mission, come and help me! I'll treat you to a meal!"]

["Are you bothering me? I have an exam in two days, okay?"]

["Oh, the worst thing is to make up the exam~"]

【"piss off!"】

【Don’t worry! Then let me treat you to some cake first? How about it? 】

["Do you think I'm one of those little fans chasing you?"]

The streets 40 years ago were not much different from now.

It's just that the memory of that time has been too blurred.

"Hey! Ful, do you have any food in this store?"

Suddenly, Dulain said.

"Uh... there are pasta, omelette rice, and fried chicken. Oh, and some cakes."

"Bring me some cake."

"What about the taste?"

"what ever."

"Oh……"

Fule walked to the refrigerator inexplicably, took out a blueberry cream cake, and gave it to Dulain.

"Here, the utensils are here."

Then he took out a spoon and a knife and fork from the side and handed them to the other party.

"…………"

Du Leiyin was silent and took a bite.

"Tsk, it's too sweet..."

"Ah? Doesn't it suit your taste? How about I change it to something less sweet?"

"No, that's it."

After three strokes, five divided by two, the other party finished the cake, leaving a confused Fu'er sitting across from him.

"If Yu Yuan was the most popular star in the school at that time, then Kaos was the least popular star. That guy had a cold personality, a bad temper, and a bad tone. Although they were both heroes, he was basically a hero in the school. There are no friends with whom I can talk. Except for a certain person who talks to himself all day long.”

"His hero name is [Fighter], which literally means a pure fighter, but what he hates most is fighting. He doesn't really want to get involved too much with things like disasters, let alone taking the initiative to attack and fight with another person. It can be said to be the complete opposite."

"That's all, there's nothing more to say."

"What happened next! What happened next?"

Seeing that the other party was unwilling to continue talking, Fu'er asked hurriedly.

"Don't let it end like this!!"

"…………"

Dulain was silent for a while... and sighed.

"Later...his ending is as you can see."

"Becoming an [ordinary person], as you can see, an ordinary person, curled up in the university, living a plain and ordinary life is the real life, and it is really as he wished."

Dulain said mockingly.

"…………"

This sentence must be a lie.

No matter how slow Fu'er is, he can still understand that the way the opponent is holding on to him to train his fighting skills and the hidden expectations are definitely not the behavior of someone who is bent on pursuing mediocrity.

What does the teacher want you to do?

Or...what are you afraid of?

"Then he...has lost his miracle?"

"Well, that's right."

"why?"

Normally, miracles can only be taken back by Alaya in one way, that is, if the other party violates the will of the entire human group.

Because according to what Sylvia told him, anyone who is given the [Hero] mark and the power of miracles is an existence recognized by Alaya.

Although miracles can be returned voluntarily, almost no one will do so.

Normally, they would be like that general, returning to death and returning miracles at the same time.

After all, the miracle itself comes from the hero's strong desire. When he gets a miracle, he is destined not to abandon his ideal so easily.

And from what he knew about his teacher, he didn't seem like the kind of person who would voluntarily return the miracle.

"Who knows? Maybe he betrayed [Alaya Consciousness]?"

The other party said nonchalantly.

"Or is it possible that he was abandoned by [Alaya Consciousness]?"

"No, there must be other reasons."

Fu'er looked at the other party and said seriously.

"must--"

"Then just do what you want. Do you have anything else to ask? I'll go back if you don't. There will be classes later."

"........."

Fu'er thought for a while and finally decided to ask.

"Then... where is the queen behind Yuan?"

No matter what, one of the [Heroes], although he looked like he had been through a lot, still existed in front of him.

What about the other one?

Information about him is still shrouded in mystery.

"he died."

"died?"

"Yes, he died. He was sacrificed. He died in a mission 30 years ago. His body was broken into pieces. Even though he was taken to Atlas Hospital, he could not be revived."

"…………"

Ful fell silent again.

He never thought that the investigation would end at this place.

Since the other party has already sacrificed, then why on earth are so many layers of information blocked now?

Is it because Dulayin has lost the element of miracle, or what did the other party do before he died?

Or... after the sacrifice?

But after sacrifice... what impact can the dead people have?

Looking at Fule who was deep in thought, Du Leiin shook his head, stood up, and prepared to leave.

However, he stood at the door for several seconds but was unable to open the store door.

Finally, he let out a long sigh, walked back, and patted Ful's shoulder while he was still thinking.

"Let me give you some irrelevant information. Do you know about hell?"

Fu Er shook his head.

"Hell? The one in myths and legends?"

"No, I mean, the place where miracles and hope are lost."

Dulain shook his head and said.

"In short, don't create hell, don't try to go to hell, that's all."

After saying a few words without beginning or ending, Du Leiyin left the shop without looking back.

"hell?"

Fu'er frowned.

If not the places referred to in those myths and legends, then what is it?

"Sylvia?"

Fu'er tried to call Sylvia, but the other party just sent him a message.

【Broken wire】

"…………"

Heroes who have lost their miracles, heroes who have died long ago, the so-called [Hell], and...

A wire that is completely "broken" due to twisting?

Not the end of the world, but one part being indelibly damaged?

What kind of place is the so-called [Hell]?

And, "Don't let hell happen." What exactly is Mr. Dulain alluding to?

The information is too messy, like a ball of wool rolled into a ball, and I can't even find the thread.

"Things are getting more and more troublesome..."

Fu'er sighed and continued to drink the unfinished tea.

"It seems that the only way to get the next step of information is to investigate the so-called abandoned laboratory in person."

After taking another look at the document, Fu'er frowned at the location of the laboratory he was responsible for, which was located on the border where Prometheus Border University was located.

Another problem arises.

Why... is there a secret laboratory here?
