A young man was standing in a black room with no windows and no windows. It was the same black-haired young man who appeared as a vision in front of Yusus a moment ago. The young man frowned and picked up a large crystal at his feet. This was a Phantom Illusion, one of the Silver Age artifacts that could project one’s appearance at any time to a pre-designated location.
“Ugh!”
The young man got nervous and put the crystal in his arms. Then he clicked his tongue and muttered.
“Even though I did something like that, I still failed in the end.”
Yuseo must have been shocked by the young man’s sudden appearance and disappearance, but in fact, the young man did not handle everything so easily. Even though the Phantom Illusionity is an artifact-level relic of the Silver Age, it cannot be easily welcomed anywhere. At least the caster must have been there before to welcome the place.
Well, it is a miraculous power as it can send a welcome to any place in memory. But since the young man was not the wife of some kind of person, what would have been the point of going to the bedroom? Thanks to that, I sneaked into the bedroom and climbed up the wall at night to remember the place. The fact that he showed up at the training ground was actually just a show of showing up after hiding for three hours in advance.
“It’s really hard to pretend to be mysterious… … .”
It takes a lot of invisible effort to look fresh. Even though the swan looks elegant, has there been a rumor that it is splashing around in the water below? The young man seemed to truly understand the swan’s feelings.
“Anyway, I wasn’t trusting a half-hearted magic swordsman. As a result, the Golden Knight was pushed aside by the Sword Saint and completely forgotten.”
Grumbling, the young man left the room. Even though he worked hard to show his ‘form’ like a silver sage, he ultimately did not get what he wanted, so the evaluation is bound to be distorted.
Moreover, the young man knew well the identity of the stranger who stole Eleusion’s voice. Heir to King Gerard, a large man with brown hair, brown eyes, and an incredibly muscular body.
The young man’s expression became even more distorted.
‘Demon King Reppenhardt!’
Outside the room was a beautiful noble house. It is a huge mansion with three floors and dozens of rooms, and is only allowed to at least a duke or marquis. The young man left the room and was walking down the hallway. One of his maids looked at him and bowed her head politely.
“Tesron, Duke Iranad is looking for you.”
After trying hard to control his expression, the young man smiled softly.
“Tell them I’ll be there soon.”
☆ ☆ ☆
Tethron politely bowed as he entered the room.
“Did you call me, Duke?”
A middle-aged man with a warm expression who was sitting at the table looked at him and opened his mouth.
“Welcome, Tesron.”
Tethron sat down in front of the man, Duke Iranad, with a slightly nervous expression.
Duke Iranad. He is a nobleman with the greatest wealth and power in the Kingdom of Grime, and is 7th in line to the throne. He is also currently the strongest Auror in the Kingdom of Grime. Perhaps thanks to this, even though he is in his 60s, he still maintains a middle-aged appearance. This good-looking man is the second-in-command of the Kingdom of Grime, excluding the King in name and reality.
Duke Iranad suddenly turned around and gestured. It meant defeating all the servants. After a moment he looked at Thesron and his gaze sank.
“Sage Restine.”
Tethron clicked his tongue inwardly. Seeing the title change, I immediately figured out why Duke Iranad called him that.
‘Well, there’s no way you wouldn’t know.’
He answered without trying to show it.
“Yes, Sage Apectus.”
Duke Iranad deepened his expression and continued.
“Why did you use the star sign?”
“It was necessary.”
Duke Iranad fell silent for a moment as he watched Tethron give a short answer. Then he shook his head and opened his mouth again.
“You are certainly an amazing person. Wise man Lestin. No one in history has awakened to Auror status at the age of twenty. Even your level of magic is not low. Moreover, your power of foresight is truly amazing and has been of great help in protecting humanity. Therefore, even though you are still young and have no experience, I recommended you as the Sage of Silver, and we accepted you. “Because I decided that you deserve a future like that.”
“I know very well.”
Tethron responded in a solemn voice. At that moment, Duke Iranad raised his voice.
“In other words, the reason you became the Silver Sage is not because of your current skills, but because of your future value! You are not yet qualified to become the Silver Sage! Do you know?”
“I know very well. sorry.”
Without making any excuses, Tethron obediently apologized. Duke Iranad frowned for a moment, then returned to his normal, gentle face.
“Of course, since you haven’t done anything special with the badge, there won’t be any disciplinary action. But you need to be aware of your position.”
“I will be self-respectful.”
Duke Iranad changed his tone again in response to Tethron’s obedient attitude.
“Then go out and see, Mr. Tethron.”
“Yes, Duke.”
Even before leaving the room, Thesron maintained an innocent expression. But as soon as he closed the door, his expression changed drastically.
Tethron muttered with a stern face.
“shit… … .”
Although he made a lot of threats on the outside, in reality, the current Tethron had no power to harm the Count of Tenes. It’s not like they went out of their way to look so mysterious for no reason. Tethron sighed.
‘I barely became a member of the Silver Sages, but I still have a long way to go… … .’
Guardian of humanity.
The Silver Sage, a secret society that rules the continent in the dark.
Certainly, its power is such that it can control the rise and fall of a country without a doubt.
The only problem is… … .
‘That means I’m still the last one here.’
I was nervous. I was so nervous that I was crazy.
I still remember. That day six years ago, the shock I felt when I thought I was dead and then opened my eyes again.
The feeling of shock when I woke up again as a miserable little boy and found out what his name was.
His steel-like body, which he trusted more than anyone else in the world, is no longer there. All he has is a body with so many skin and bones that it looks like it might break if you hit it.
The feeling of terrible loss was a sense of loss, but what scared me more than that was the worst situation.
Becoming the owner of this body means that the true owner of this body may have taken over your body!
But there was no way to check at the time. Tethron’s body, young Reppenhardt, was just an apprentice wizard training as an apprentice to a wizard at the Magic Tower in Delphia at the time. He was a half-slave, with no freedom at all. I had neither the power nor the money to prove my worst guess.
Even though I thought it couldn’t be possible, I tried desperately. Even though he was unable to repeat Jim Unbreakable’s training, he was one of those who once reached the ultimate Auror level, King Thethron. Using all the knowledge he had acquired, he transformed Reppenhardt’s weak body into an unmanned one.
In the meantime, I also worked hard to learn magic. Indeed, he had the brains of a great mage, enough to be called the Demon King. In his previous life, Tethron was not very intelligent, but once he took over Reppenhardt’s body, all the magic that seemed like nonsense became completely clear to him.
In the year he turned 20, Thesron finally succeeded in awakening his Auror a little later than in his previous life. At the same time, he was initiated into the 4th Circle and obtained the qualifications of a full-time wizard.
As soon as I left the world, my priority was to head to the southern part of Vasily’s Kingdom, the Rachid Mountains. It was to find his shrine, Jim Unbreakable, a place of nightmares.
Of course, I didn’t meet Gerrard in person. The fear of Master was already imprinted in his soul, and no matter how much his body changed, he could not bear to meet him again. Instead, information was obtained from a nearby village where Gerard usually stopped to purchase supplies.
I checked it there. That Gerrard is teaching his younger self. Moreover, he already calls his younger self Reppenhardt, not Tes Ron.

It was a nightmare. Demon King Reppenhardt was undoubtedly resurrected in this era. Just like himself, he was called the King of Powers.
I wanted to deal with it right away, but there was no way. The opponent had already awakened his Auror and was taking complete control of his body. The only person who knew how strong he was in his youth was Tes Roan himself. No matter how much he awakened his Auror and mastered magic up to Circle 4, there was no way he could be his opponent.
I never even thought about getting Gerrard’s help. Given his master’s personality, it was obvious that he would not care at all whether his disciple’s soul changed or not as long as his body was strong.
‘Because I would have done the same.’
Although Tethron was a bit nervous now that he had received Repenhardt’s brain, originally, the Jim Unbreakers’ past disciples had similar personalities from generation to generation. Try living for 10 years while being beaten again and again throughout childhood, which is said to determine humanity. Humans have no choice but to become simply ignorant.
It was dark before my eyes.
He was simply an electrifying demon king who filled the continent with fear. That person has now taken possession of his own body, a body of steel. To be honest, defeating Leppenhardt was purely a physical battle. Thanks to the sacrifices of his comrades and his indomitable body, he was barely able to defeat him after a long battle.
But now he has made up for even his only weakness.
Who in the world can match him who has become so perfect? Who can prevent the nightmarish future that is to come?
“We have to stop it… … .”
Thethron muttered helplessly as he walked down the hallway.
“We must stop it before it regains its full magical power.”
There was still no hope.
‘No matter how much of a demon lord I am, it won’t be easy to regain the magic of yesteryear with my own head.’
Now that I’ve said it myself, it’s truly a miserable line. However, Tes Ron humbly acknowledged that in his previous life he had been a stone-faced person. Just as he despaired at seeing his changed body, Reppenhardt must have also despaired at seeing his changed brain.
However, Tethron also succeeded in awakening an Auror with this poor body. It is overly optimistic to say that Reppenhardt will not be able to do the opposite. Because he was said to be the greatest wizard of all time and history in the history of the continent.
‘That’s how painful it is to miss Eleusion’s voice.’
Tethron clicked his tongue. He didn’t know what Eleusion’s voice was. In his previous life, he was just an ignorant fist-fighter. There is no way he would know anything about complicated magic tools. The only information Tethron knows is that Reppenhardt obtained that artifact from the Eleusion Ruins and developed the skills to become a great mage at such a young age.
‘The voice of Eleusion, and the relics of the four directions. Jade clearly said that the Demon King gained that level of power using the Silver Age artifact.’
If so, I will never let you get your hands on them. Of course, Tethron doesn’t know what the Four Directions God’s relics are used for. But I know where it is and what it looks like. Because he had seen the devil’s information countless times.
‘I guess I’ll have to figure out the relics of the four directions in advance somehow.’
Thinking about it, Tethron returned to his room. He felt like going out to explore the ruins himself.
‘But I don’t have enough strength to do that… … .’
He was an Auror user by name. In addition, he was not lazy in practicing magic and slowly reached the level of the 5th circle. At this level, it was clear that he possessed excellent military power that would not be outdone no matter where he went.
However, it was not at the level of exploring top-class ruins like Eleusion. No matter how much information he had from his past life, Thesron was not confident that he would be able to explore Eleusion with his current skills. This was the reason why he used Yusus.
Of course, this also applies to the current Leffenhardt. Didn’t even Eussus succeed in exploring Eleusion only after he had full knowledge of the ruins and led a large group of knights, wizards, and priests? In fact, it is impossible to explore Eleusion alone with Repenhardt’s skills right now.
The problem was that there was a significant difference in the level of information on the ruins between Tethron and Leffenhardt.
Tethron knew that Reppenhardt was already a famous ruins explorer at a time when he was not called the Demon King. Although he was also skilled at exploring ruins, the only information Tethron knew was about strategies for conquering those ruins. However, Reppenhardt is familiar with the ruins’ system information itself. If he manipulates the system and uses a secretly hidden back door, he will be able to break through quite a few ruins even with his current force.
‘Anyway, I need to increase my strength. Now I can’t even deal with the Golden Knight, let alone Reppenhardt… … .’
As he walked, Tethron clenched his fists.

A carriage was rumbling along the western road of the Kingdom of Grime, which lies along the Setelad Mountains, along a road with plains on all sides.
A baggage horse of average quality pulls the carriage, and a boy with red long hair sits in the driver’s seat, half-asleep, holding the reins. To the boy’s left and right, an elf and a dwarf girl sit together and talk about something. Next to the carriage, a slim young man wearing a sword was walking along the carriage.
Russ, the young man wearing a sword, suddenly brushed his hair. The weather was slowly getting warmer, and the winter wind wasn’t that cold. Russ tilted his head as he looked at his carriage.
‘What on earth is he doing in there?’
Even martial artists who have reached the highest level do not neglect their daily training. But now, three days after joining this group, Russ has not once seen Reppenhardt practicing martial arts!
For three days, while they were traveling north along the Western Road, all Leffenhardt did was throw himself into the carriage after breakfast, then pile into the carriage after lunch, and then crash into the carriage again after dinner. Well, he says it’s because he has something to think about, but I don’t know why he sits in the carriage all day because he has so much to think about.
‘I don’t think I’m meditating to gain martial arts enlightenment.’
Well, there is a widespread saying in the world that for a martial artist who has reached the highest level, mental training is important and physical training is no longer necessary. But Russ, the driver, knew very well how groundless that was.
Martial arts skills mean that if you play for a day, you fall behind by a day. That’s not to say that enlightenment isn’t necessary, but that doesn’t mean that since you’ve reached a certain level, you’ll become mentally stronger and your skills will improve even if you mess around and play around. If you think about it that way, even a vegetable person could become a warrior god.
No matter what anyone says, the basis for performing martial arts is the body. Nothing becomes possible without the support of the body. And before time, nothing is permanent. No matter how perfect your body is, if you don’t train it every day, it will only decline little by little.
There’s no way a strong person like Reppenhardt wouldn’t know something like that, and if that’s the case, I can’t even fathom why he would do that, even skipping training.
Russ smiled bitterly.
‘Well, it was difficult to understand from the first day.’
Over the past three days, what puzzled Russ the most was Repenhardt’s attitude toward Siris and Teela. Suddenly, I remembered the first time I was homeless.
It was after having a hearty dinner with food purchased at a private house near the Western Road. Russ was just about to put down his bowl and get up. Suddenly Leffenhardt grabbed him with a stern voice.
“Where?”
“yes? “I’m thinking of swinging a sword to cut down the ship, right?”
At that time, Reppenhardt snapped his fingers and said:
“No matter where you go, you have to cast lots.”
“yes?”
When I wondered what the lottery was, it turned out that two people who would do the dishes and other things after the meal were chosen by lot. For a moment, Russ was dumbfounded. No, isn’t it only natural for slaves to do the cleaning? I also wondered if Reppenhardt was doing this on purpose to kill his spirit.
But after a minute, I realized that wasn’t the case. Russ wasn’t the only one who drew the short lot.
“Sheesh, I lost again.”
“Wash the dishes thoroughly today, Mr. Leffen.”
