The man puts his index finger to his glasses and casually said.
âItâs impossible. But doing the impossible is what a hero does. Itâs no wonder you canât understand it mazoku. The hearts and prayers of us humans wishing for peace allows the hero to perform miracles.â
âFuâŠ.kukuku.â laughter leaks deep from my stomach. âKuhahahahahah. A miracle huh? Thatâs not a nice way to put it. It seems even now just like in the old days you humans can still amaze me. A word of advice human. Thereâs no such convenient thing in this world as a miracle that will come true if you simply pray.â (Arnos)
âI didnât think you would understand it.â
The man brushes me off with his words.
âBe careful. Donât let yourself be deceived by the gods.â (Arnos)
The man shows a reaction to my words.
âAre you a reincarnated person?â (Arnos)
While still looking at me with a cold expression the man says.
âHero academy selection class [Jergakanon] 2nd rank, reincarnated from the first origin of the hero Kanon. Holy water guardian knight Ledoriano Kanon Azeschen.â
This person has reincarnated from the first origin and the hero Kanon?
âFumu. I donât think so.â (Arnos)
Ledoriano makes a stern expression.
âWhat was that?â (Ledoriano)
âI said thereâs no way I can believe that you are a reincarnation of Kanon. That, or with having seven origins some of them will turn out to be losers.â (Arnos)
Of the seven origins Kanon had, six were collected from others. The original origin would be Kanonâs own.
Itâs no wonder that since the other six origins would not fully inherit the existence known as Kanon there would be some change in quality after all these years.
ââŠâŠI suggest you take your words back.â (Ledoriano)
âWhich ones?â (Arnos)
âThe remark about me not being the hero Kanon. You may not know but inheriting the origin of the legendary Kanon is something we humans bear with great pride. We will not stand idly by when someone denies it.â (Ledoriano)
âNope, donât get it. Buring with pride and boasting about yourself? It doesnât matter who your ancestors are or how legendary the hero was, whatâs the point sticking to those boring things?â (Arnos)
âJust for you, Iâll explain it again.â (Ledoriano)
Putting his fingertip to his glasses again he threatens me in his cool tone.
âSlow down already Ledoriano.â
I hear a voice coming from the second floor. Looking up I can see someone sitting on the edge of the window.
Itâs a red-haired man also in a scarlet uniform.
âI sensed mazoku magic power so I came to check it out. Whatâs going on?â
The red-haired man jumped from the second floor and landed in front of Ledoriano.
âLet me give you my name first. Hero academy selection class [Jergakanon] 4th rank, reincarnated from the third origin of the hero Kanon. Holy flame destruction knight Laos Kanon Jillfou.â
Laos takes a step forward.
âWhatâs your name?â (Laos)
âFumu. You seem to be a failure as well.â (Arnos)
Laos frowned at my remark.
âYou seem to have poor hearing. I said that I didnât think that you were Kanon.â (Arnos)
âHey, mazoku whose name I donât know.â Laos speaks with anger in his words. âDonât you know the name of the person who defeated your leader?â
âAre you trying to appear smart? If you want to believe in false history thatâs up to you but you should observe the other party first before speaking.â (Arnos)
Laos face takes on an irritated expression.
âItâs still not too late. Iâm not an ogre and anyone can make a mistakeâ (Laos)
Laos releases magic power from his whole body in a threatening manner.
âAdmit that the demon king of tyranny was defeated by the hero and that the wall was built by the hero and then Iâll forgive you.â (Laos)
I can help but laugh at his words.
âHou. Are you looking down on me?â (Laos)
âFumu. I understand.â (Arnos)
âThe hero defeated the demon king of tyranny? You really shouldnât blindly believe in things you havenât personally seen.â (Arnos)
Laos glares at me, his eyes full of bloodlust.
âFine. Then let me teach you the power of the hero kanon who defeated the demon king of tyranny. Perhaps then you will understand.â (Laos)
âStop it Laos. Heâs a guest. Itâll be troublesome if you hurt him.â (Ledoriano)
âIâm not going to use my sacred sword but this guy doesnât seem to know anything about heroes so as a substitute for a greeting Iâm going to lightly show him the power of a hero.â (Laos)
âStop it. Are you really going to go wild in such a placââ (Ledoriano)
I laughed and cut him off.
âBy all means, I would love to be taught it. This power of a hero.â (Arnos)
âHey, this guys motivated as well.â (Laos)
Ledoriano sighs and gives up.
âBe prepared to be punished later then.â (Ledoriano)
Laos steps forward totally ignoring Ledorianoâs words and makes two fists. Fire ignites from both his fists and wraps around them.
âDonât blink. Iâll show you something amazing!!!â (Laos)
Laos throws out a fist without moving from the spot and holy flames slam into me.
âFumu. When it comes to blinking ââ
I close my eyes and the next moment the holy flames go out and Laos is blown backwards through a number of bookshelves before finally stopping embedded in the wall.
âWhat was that?â (Ledoriano)
âWhaâŠâŠ..gaâŠ.haâŠâŠwhat was thatâŠâŠ.?â (Laos)
Laos doesnât seem to understand what happened.
ââŠ..WhatâŠ..did you doâŠâŠ?â (Laos)
âWhat did I do? I blinked.â (Arnos)
The wind pressure generated by my blink that I had poured magic power into blew out the holy flames and tore the anti-magic of Laos into shreds.
ââŠ.ImpâŠ..ossiâŠâŠbleâŠâŠ! SuchâŠâŠan absurdâŠ..thingâŠâŠ!â
It doesnât seem like Laos can move at the moment.
âAdd that to your history textbooks. A descendent of the hero Kanon was done in by a blink.â (Arnos)
