The Return of the Eternal Hero
Meaning of Name Leonhart - Chapter 1

Narva Kingdom, Leora City - 3 March 537 Year of Liberation

'Today may be the day that almost all of the inhabitants of Leonhart wept in sorrow'

Looking around him a middle-aged man could hardly find a single person who did not shed his tears

As they are currently attending the funeral of Archduke Javier Leonhart, a leader of the region who is much loved by his people for the kindness he has given them has touched the hearts of them all

When they saw the coffin being put into the tomb everyone began to shed tears, even so they could only cry in silence for not wanting to disturb the funeral

The pastor began to accompany the funeral with the prayers he was chanting, and everyone began to close their eyes to pray as well

When the funeral was over everyone began to pave the way, the way for the passing of the new Heir of Leonhart, the new Archduke Leonhart, and their new regional leader

From a distance the middle-aged man saw a young boy with shining blue eyes walking through the crowd, on his left and right were 5 soldiers each with full armor walking around escorting him

He was Alaric Leonhart, the eldest son of the previous Archduke Leonhart because he was the most valuable son to Javier Leonhart, Alaric had not seen the outside world for 18 years and this was the first time he had come out of his castle

With Alaric's flat facial expression continuing to walk through the crowd, the people who saw him tried to stay positive and dispose of all the bad prejudices that were in their minds

Although some people mistakenly thought why did not look sadness on Alaric's face but some others knew the real reason, it is because of Alaric's position now that he is a leader that he cannot show his weakness before his people

But it is not the thing that most bothers people's minds because there is something more disturbing their minds, namely the blue eyes that shine

'So that's Magic Eyes'

The Leonhart family is a family that comes from the descendants of the 'heroes' Leonhart. In the legend that tells his story, the Hero Leonhart has a magic eye that gives him extraordinary abilities

With his power he even managed to seal and kill all the demon lords who tried to destroy the human world

The legend of Leonhart has become a story for children all over the continent, everyone grew up knowing how the hero Leonhart and admired his extraordinary figure and the power of Magic Eyes that is very amazing for them

'How cool are the eyes of the hero.... That's what I thought before I saw it in person and after seeing it in person I realized the eyes were cold and horrible, just by looking at it just made my whole hair creep'

After the hero none of his descendants were born with Magic Eyes, but the first time after more than 500 years someone was born with Magic Eyes

'The eye looks bright but the light gives a hollow feeling'

That is what the priest in the mind who was at the burial place, because he stood quite close to Alaric when the funeral procession he saw clearly Alaric's Magic Eyes

Although he had tried to focus on his duties as a priest at the funeral, his eyes could not turn away from those beautiful blue eyes

'With that expressionless face it made all those blue eyes become silent as if frozen '

......................

A few hours passed by while Alaric was sitting in his room drinking a cup of tea in his hand

This room was the working room used by Archduke Leonhart and now it became his office because now Alaric is officially the head of the Leonhart family

He is the Hero Leonhart, a man no more than 500 years ago but now he returns not as himself but as someone from his own descendants

"The name Leonhart now sounds very sad, people no longer pay homage to this name even the glory of this name is just a part of the past, in the present times people begin to forget the glory of Leonhart"

Leonhart had only been in Alaric's body for 3 days but she could tell how fallen the honor of Leonhart's name was, inside the Archduke cemetery bearing Leonhart's name there was not a single royal present

Even if Leonhart's name had begun to be underestimated by the people but the title of Archduke was not a lowly thing, even though their Royal family should at least send a final tribute to an Archduke

The title Archduke itself is one of the highest titles for a noble, Archduke only under the King/Queen and crown prince only, Archduke only, The position of the Archduke is above the position of an ordinary prince and is parallel to the title of Grand Duke

Leonhart did not see any of the royal members present at the funeral. This made him angry and sad, how the name of Leonhart who was once glorified now became very low

Long before he even got the title of Archduke and became a noble, the King had great respect for Leonhart when he was just a commoner

"I can't blame anyone for the fall of Leonhart's name, because this name is my name then this is my responsibility"

In his heart he decided to restore the now fallen name of Leonhart, this was his goal and the reason why he returned again to this world

"The first is to build the trust of the people of Leonhart. No matter how great a leader is if he cannot get the trust of his people then he has failed"

As Alaric said, the first thing that matters is to build a sense of trust from his people towards him

For now the most important thing is to make a legal policy and apply it thoroughly

If the law begins to move then another problem can be solved afterwards, The thing that makes human civilization can develop is the law

If man remains trapped in a lawless situation where the strong are in power then it is certain that in the end human civilization will be stopped because of the law of the jungle where strength is everything is a limiting situation freedom of human expression

"Tock...Geck...Geck"

"Come in"

With the permission of Alaric someone from outside opened the door of the Alaric Room, a servant entered by reading a few sheets of paper in his hand

"My master I've got what you asked for"

The servant said, handing the papers over to Alaric

"Good Sebastian, it's time to apply the law!"

The waiter is Sebastian he has served the Leonhart family for 3 generations starting from when he was a child he served the grandfather of Alaric then the father of Alaric and now he serves Alaric

His lifespan could be said to be over 50 years could be seen from his white hair and slightly wrinkled face, even so he still works very professionally almost without mistakes or even can be said to be without mistakes at all

Maybe this comes from his experience that is inhabited because he has been a servant since childhood because it was in his old age where he had a lot of experience he did not make the slightest mistake
