The Legends Of Creator Hero
Making Peace With Yourself

At noon, after some time of the appearance of Acnologia, the world really fell into chaos and all flocked to ask the big countries for detailed information.

Some wanted to know if it was true that the Heroes were intending to conduct a Raid against the Dragon of calamity. Some wanted to know the actions of the Hero about the emergence of Acnologia and others asked for protection.

They were worried that Acnologia would act and completely flatten the world. Because of that, they would be completely supportive of the actions the Hero would take, in hopes of avoiding the bleak future they would encounter.

They knew very well, if without the existence of the Hero, that bleak future would never be avoided. For mankind, Heroes were the first as well as the last gamble they could have.

"Asoka, how's the Region doing??" without the need for knocking or permission, he immediately opened the door violently.

There was Asoka who was waiting for something while the waiters put food as if for a banquet. Rigel who was still filled with anger ignored that. At most he knew that anyone would come, considering Natalia was not here.

"Rigel.., the state of the Region is safe. Leo had gone to the control room and prepared the door to Tartaros while Odin, Gahdevi, Fang and his army were on guard for the worst possible. Residents have also been given warnings to prepare to evacuate at any time."

A good precaution, especially on the part when Leo goes to the control room without his permission. Maybe he knew that not forever he could depend or anything like that on Rigel. His mandiri actions deserve thumbs up.

"Then, is it possible for Natalia to pick up another Candidate?"

Asoka realizes that Rigel is not in a good mood. The unwritten rules listed from people who know what Rigel is like are neither opposed nor slowed down when he is in a bad mood.

"Yeah, because the incident will certainly be many who wonder about it, so let the Candidate do the discussion—"

"No need to explain I know! I'm not going to attend, just tell him that we're leaving sooner than scheduled."

"... I-i understand. All right, then." Asoka complied without needing to say anything else that was troublesome and only worsened Rigel's mood.

Without saying anything more, Rigel turned around and went to a place that not many people knew about.

It takes four days to drive a car, but it will take a week to drive a Dragon train. That way, the time they have is seven days from now and the departure will happen on the seventh day.

Therefore, preparation should be done as soon as possible. Although the Combat Union was not yet in as mature a readiness as the plan, they reluctantly had to bring it along. Then, there may be additional members because information about Raid has been known by many circles.

Asoka sat back down, leaned back on her chair and massaged her forehead tiredly while still squeezing her brain.

"Most likely the Adventure Association will intervene against this case. Looks like we have to pick up the chairman of the Association, yea., for some reason, the world seems to be walking towards the end."

No one but himself could hear his words. Obviously he was just talking alone. When outsiders heard about it, perhaps they would deny it for not wanting to think about such a grim event.

"I hope things won't get any more complicated..," he murmured from his deepest desires.

Things that certainly not only Asoka wanted, but the whole life. An eternal peace where there is no chaos and calamity like the monster of doom or Ragnarok.

"About what makes Rigel angry, yes." he muttered, thinking of the bad events that made Rigel that way.

He thought of various possibilities that could be the cause, resulting in a betrayal that occurred in his head. If that was indeed the case, then it was no surprise that his anger was no longer accommodated.

Keep thinking about it for free, so he chose to turn it in the other direction, to the incident that is happening. Moreover, a portal formed in the air, there was no need to fear who it was because he had known.

"So you've come, yes." he said, standing up from his chair and welcoming the arrival of another candidate who came through Spatial.

Starting from Alexei, followed by Altucray and Rudeus then Natalia who walked the back. He needs to focus on this discussion.

"Spatial magic, forgotten ancient magic. I don't think there are still people who have this kind of versatile magic" Alexei said, amazed at the portal he had just been through. "It's also great that you can use it, if you'd like, can you teach me that magic??"

Natalia bowed deeply, "Please forgive me, Your Excellency Alexei. I myself cannot use it. I used this Grimoire to use it, because this Spatial magic is embedded in the book."

"I've never heard of anything like that. Grimoires are generally meant for people to learn the magic stored in them, not to use them."

"Yeah, I've asked some great Grimoire and Alchemist experts to research it, but they have the same answer, that the Spatial magic in this book was deliberately sealed by ancient magic for the sake of making it easier to use."

"Hmm? Is there a possibility that the book is an ancient artifact??" Rudeus who was interested in their conversation joined the conversation.

"I'm not sure myself, but this book does not seem to be an ancient artifact. But the power that sealed Spatial magic into this book was definitely the Ancient Artifact."

"So..., is there only Spatial magic in the book? Can I see it??"

Respectfully, Natalia bowed and refused Rudeus' request to look at the contents of his book.

"Please forgive me, Your Excellency Rudeus. This book will not respond to people who are not suitable to hold it. When a person who does not have the qualifications to hold it, this book will instantly disappear somewhere and it takes time for me to look for it. As for whether or not there is any magic other than Spatial, I am also unable to answer it, for some reason."

They were obviously shocked by that unexpected fact. As for the existence or not of other magic, they can tolerate Natalia not being able to tell him. Maybe because of some restrictions or he does not want to reveal his trump card.

If so then they can guess that he has a hidden trump card from that unique book.

"Yeah, instead of going further, let's get straight to the heart of what happened a while ago. About Acnologia that emerged from the sky a moment ago."

They began to stiffen and knew that heavy discussion was about to begin. Regarding the choice that Acnologia gave and some information about the Raid against the last catastrophe, the Dragon Acnologia.

"What Hero Creator, Amatsumi Rigel didn't attend this meeting?" alexei asked while searching for his whereabouts.

"No, he's in a very bad mood. It is better to leave it alone and not do something that makes his mood worse." Asoka said, allowing the others to sit down and telling the other servants to leave the room.

"so. Although I was curious about the thing that made him angry, but let it be. Let's just start right away."

They sat down one by one, but only Natalia remained standing by Asoka's side as the executive was instrumental in this discussion. For starters, the host Asoka reaffirmed the discussion this time.

"As we know, that not long before our target, the Plague Dragon of Acnologia emerged from the sky. Even if it's just an illusion he's made or something, we know at least it's really."

"Yes.., I have never seen anything so demeaning to man and insulting to man that way." Rudeus said, recalling the scene in the sky before.

"If it was the work of demons or ignorant witches, I believe that they wouldn't go that far if it was for fun." Alexey added.

"Just put that aside first, let's move on to the subject.." rebuked Altucray with slight displeasure.

Asoka just nodded silently, "The problem is, there is or is not a traitor among us who reveals Raid information to Acnologia. Supposedly, there was nothing that he could make the conveyer of information other than the existence of a traitor. Maybe this is what makes Rigel really angry right now."

"Secondly, this is about some information about the conquest and the deadline that Acnologia was told. We only have two weeks before Acnologia and the Dragon race itself intervened and made us fall into a predicament. So what kind of action are we going to do to other countries? especially at the Adventure Association who would definitely not stay silent towards this."

Adventure Association is not a state-owned organization, but they move like a small country scattered throughout the country. They are like a country in another country.

The center itself is in a small country. Not that they were afraid of the Adventure Association, but if they wanted to they could deploy all the adventurers to invade a large country. Because of that their existence cannot be ignored.

"The deadline given cannot be ignored. Then there is no other way but to speed it up." Alexei said, touching his chin like thinking.

"Rigel himself has asked us to prepare the Combat Union and others from now on and departs on the seventh day. It is indeed ahead of schedule, but it is inevitable." Asoka replied.

"I'm not a problem myself. I wish the fight was faster. My spine began to tremble as it felt a great battle was about to occur." Rudeus said, smiling widely and clenching his fists.

"I also agree. But about that traitor, is it possible that it came from a Dragon named Red?" ask Altucray.

He didn't think that a figure like Rigel would let a traitor exist for granted. For example Takatsumi and himself are really humiliated and tortured inwardly, to the behavior of Rigel to his beloved daughter.

"I'm not sure myself. However, they should have a contract and it is impossible to deceive each other behind the contract. I thought it might be from Red's partner or someone who didn't have a word about it."

No longer need to explain about the contract, all who are in this place know very well the advantages and disadvantages of a soul-binding contract.

"If it does come from his partner, then there is no way to investigate it, yes... Looks like we'll have to get through this section" Rudeus said. As he said, it is not good to waste time discussing things that no solution will find.

"If so let's discuss Adventure Association," Alexei asserted. "Regarding them, it seems like we don't need to bother. From the news of the birds I received, their Association Chief greatly admired the figure of the Hero and hoped to have a chance to meet. I think we just need to send in one of the Heroes and have them explain the things that the Chairman of the Association wants to know" he continued while giving a slick suggestion.

"Although you said it as if it was easy, I'm not sure the Association Leader didn't try to pry the information with a tongue-tin. I spoke to him once and I honestly hated him, because he could tell the things I was hiding. From what I can see, only Hero Rigel can handle a silat tongue or psychological warfare." said Rudeus, a little annoyed when remembering things he did not want to remember.

"Sending Princess Natalia or Ray won't make her believe it. Although they can withstand the silat of the tongue and psychological warfare, but their own arrival brings a big question mark for him." Altucray added.

Each of them was well acquainted with what the chairman of the Adventure Association was like. Just as terrifying as demons, yet even more terrifying was that the information network was so vast.

Asoka let out a tired sigh and lightly patted her temple, "In the end, we can only rely on Rigel, yes. I don't know what he's doing right now..."

[***]

Booms!

Something fell from the sky at a high speed. Make the wind craze and throw everything around it. So it makes the monsters who live around interested and gathered there, only to see what objects landed and create a commotion.

"Good, you gathered just as anger hugged me. I thank you for giving your lives..."

Featuring hair as white as silk, yet with a hideous face and a great killing intent emanated from his entire body. His left hand looked so unique, there was only one person who had that hand. In an instant his form flickered and appeared somewhere else.

He gripped the Goblin's head in front of him and slammed it with full force onto the ground. The Goblin's body shattered and a huge hole formed on the ground due to its extremely powerful impact.

Rigel moved again, this time in front of a large Minotaur and broke both horns without delay. Rigel slowly tortured her, breaking her fingers, hands, feet, ribs and stomping her face until she was no longer recognized. Any form of torture that he could think of then he did at that very moment.

The surroundings were polluted by the blood of monsters, destroyed by the anger of a monster named Amatsumi Rigel. His actions were contrary to his usual self.

It only took him a few minutes to finish off every monster that existed. Now he was sitting on a pile of monster corpses, full of blood all around but not a single drop touched Rigel's body or clothes.

He stared silently at the destruction he had caused, in the hope that his anger would subside. Everything he expected was moving away from him. Not the slightest bit of anger that burned him diminished with this rage. Really very disappointing.

"So it's true that you're rampaging here. The fairies became worried, angry and afraid of not being able to do anything to the first King they had."

There was no need to confirm who it was, only the Fairy Queen knew everything the fairies felt.

"You yourself know it's not good to approach me now. Leave me alone, if you don't want to die in my hands." His attitude seems apathetic, but clearly he still cares about the people around him.

"Even if it's you who's threatening yourself, I won't back down. It is precisely at times like these that my existence is needed."

To his words, there was no answer from Rigel's mouth. Not a single bit of himself was comforted or made his anger subside.

The sylph flying with wings began to approach Rigel from behind and smiled softly, not the least bit worried about Rigel's rampage.

"At this time, you need to share that feeling with the one you love. Even if it's someone else, as long as you love him then it's fine. I'm your wife now, but not your chosen wife. You were forced to marry me so that the position of the fairy authorities would not be empty if something terrible happened."

"Even so, there is no prohibition against you not meeting other girls, even doing so is not prohibited."

"Girl or whatever is not something that can ease my anger!" reply Rigel, without any serenity in his tone.

Sylph realizes that whatever she or others say will not be able to affect Rigel. Given that he is the only strange anomaly among humans—Hero exists.

It is not surprising that the usual way does not work for him.

"You don't have to lighten it or remove it.." Sylph let her hand outstretch and wrapped Rigel in her body.

Feeling a warm hug and something soft touching his back, Rigel had no particular reaction on him. Not understanding Sylph's actions.

"Enough you make friends with that anger without trying to get rid of it right away. Make peace with yourself, Rigel. There is no loss that you will receive just by being at peace with yourself."

Sylph enjoys the warmth and aroma of Rigel wholeheartedly. Although this was not the right time, he did not care. Since his only hope was one, it calmed back Rigel's anger.

No matter what, as long as the anger subsides, the fairies will calm down. What he feared was that if this went on for a long time, perhaps the fairies would start to make small rebellions and do various things.

"Easy to say. But doing it won't be as easy as finding a needle in a haystack."

If coming to terms with himself is the solution, then the challenge is how long it will take for him to accept himself.

"No need to rush. Do it slowly, accepting that anger is as easy as receiving my arms. Don't try to avoid it, you just have to face it without fear." Sylph reiterated.

He does not know, Rigel does not know with certainty the meaning that Sylph is trying to convey to him. His mind was not so clear as to look for its meaning. However, he understood that he had to deal with the anger itself.
