Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned!

Chapter 129



Chapter 129

Davey left the reception room after a private meeting with the Lyndis Empire’s emperor. He then walked through the royal palace’s spacious, luxurious hallways as he left. Deorte had gladly granted his request; it was something that could potentially become a continental issue, but the emperor had accepted without a hint of hesitation. That was enough for Davey.

“Sir Davey, Rinne is thinking of investigating further.”

“Investigate?”

“About stimulating Rinne’s smell and taste sensors…”

“I will let you eat whatever you want after we leave.”

“Rinne, thinking that Sir Davey’s financial situation is good.” Rinne was expressionless, but she sounded slightly excited. She was in a good mood.

“But we have to check something first before we go.”

“Rinne. Require a detailed explanation.”

Davey squinted and stayed silent. He had truly met the rescued boy through a coincidence.

Davey had just gone after the gang that had pickpocketed him to show them how the world really worked, without any ulterior motive. What were the chances of him rescuing someone who could be related to him in some way? What was the possibility of meeting a boy who seemed to be from Earth, a completely different world that was from his past life? Saintess Daphne didn’t worship God, but she certainly believed in one thing: nothing in the world happened without a reason, and that there was no such thing as a coincidence.

It was funny, but if that boy was really involved with them, it wouldn’t be a light matter; Davey needed to check it out.

That was when…

“Huh!” Davey grabbed Rinne, who was following him with a bright expression, and instantly released his mana.

[Invisibility]

It was a 5th circle, non-visualization magic spell. As soon as he and Rinne disappeared into thin air, Davey could see a girl urgently running from the other side of the hall. It would be a little burdensome if he encountered her. Davey had already done something cringey, so he didn’t want to get involved with her any further; it would feel as though he was sinning, especially since the girl was a foolishly nice princess.

Gesturing at the confused Rinne to stay silent, Davey quietly waited for the princess to walk past them.

The girl was Aeria El Lyndis. She ran quickly, huffing and puffing even though she possessed the physical abilities of a beastfolk.

Huff… Puff…

” Hurrying toward the reception room, Aeria looked around with an urgent expression. She stopped only when she was near him. She muttered, “

Huff… Puff,

his scent… It’s certainly right here.”

‘What the hell.’

-Oh my. I knew that beastfolk had a good sense of smell, but…

Beastfolk had a much better sense of smell than humans, although it wasn’t as great as that of cats or dogs. Invisibility magic was just an obstruction of vision; it could hide Davey, but it couldn’t hide his scent.

Davey instantly backed away from Aeria, who was covering her nose and mouth. She looked around with tears in her eyes.

Wheeze… Wheeze…

Y… Your Highness! You cannot run like this in the palace!”

“Erenda… He is here… He was here.”

“He has already gone back to his kingdom.”

“No… Do you know how difficult it was to meet him?! I can’t just let him go without even saying goodbye!” Aeria frowned as tears rolled down her face. She gave up only after Davey had hidden his scent by releasing his mana and stood still.

“Let’s go back, Your Highness. It is time for your medicine…”

“I will go meet Father. I am going to ask him to let me meet the First Prince again.”

Aeria ran to the reception room in determination while her lady-in-waiting, Erenda, hastily followed after her.

Phew…

“Rinne. Question. Why don’t you meet her?”

“It’s just a gut feeling, but sometimes, my intuition sounds the danger alarm rather accurately.”

“Thinking that Sir Davey has a bad personality.”

“Other than that, there’s something I want to check on right away.”

Holding Rinne in his arms, Davey shot up from the ground. Rinne was a small girl, but she was over 200 kilograms. However, that didn’t hold Davey back since he was strong enough to hold her.

* * *

“Is he calm?”

“Yes, it hasn’t been long since he woke up. He had excessive seizures when he first woke up, but Class-5 Yulis has put him back to sleep with magic,” the lodging’s maid in charge said.

Davey opened the firmly shut door without hesitation. In the dark room, he could see the boy lying on the bed. He heard the boy groan, “Ah… Ah, Mom… Mom…”

‘Maybe he’s dreaming about his family.’

Davey lit up a luxurious mana stone lamp and approached the boy, whose eyes soon fluttered open when Davey roughly shook him awake.

“Where is… Huh?!” The boy widened his eyes and immediately got up.

The boy wasn’t the only one who was surprised; Davey was too, since the boy had remained asleep when he had first arrived.

“Ah… Ahh!!” The boy screamed in surprise when Davey grabbed him by the collar.

Davey had to calm the boy down, or risk the boy having seizures again. But right now, he had no reason to consider the boy’s situation. He simply said, “Get it together, man.”

As Davey glared at him menacingly while holding him by the collar, the boy widened his eyes in shock.

“Alright. Let’s keep this quiet since everyone is resting right now,” Davey said after taking a deep breath. He lightly waved his hand and blue mana traveled down his fingers. His mana spread around.

[Silence]

The boy looked up at Davey with wide eyes. He didn’t know what Davey had done, even though it was only a very basic sound-trapping spell.

“I put a sound barrier magic spell around us. Now, no one can hear our conversation except us.” Davey let go of the boy’s collar. He then grabbed a chair and sat down like this was an interrogation. He asked, “Alright. I think I have the right to ask you some questions since I rescued you. Do you have a problem with that?”

Both the boy and Davey were around the same age group, but Davey, who was over 180 centimeters tall, was much bigger than the boy, who seemed to be closer to 160 centimeters.

“N—no…”

“Okay. You’re probably startled. Your name?”

“It’s Kang Mu-Hyuk…”

“Age.”

“F—Fifteen…” Startled, Mu-Hyuk, who was staring at Davey anxiously, stared at the floor as he answered.

“Alright, Mr. Kang Mu-Hyuk. Let’s have a deep conversation.”

“Um…”

“What?”

“Are…you Korean?”

Mu-Hyuk looked confused, which was understandable. Davey obviously didn’t look like the typical Korean. In the central and eastern parts of the continent, there were a lot of people who looked like a mix between western and eastern ethnicities. This meant that Davey had a mix of western and eastern features as well. As such, people wouldn’t think that he was Korean at first glance. The problem was that Davey spoke a language that the boy hadn’t heard in this world so far: Korean.

“No, I’m from here. You?” Davey replied.

“I am…from Korea…”

Davey felt even more bewildered by the boy’s straightforward revelation.

‘Has his soul moved here after his death, just like what happened to me?’

However, that was impossible, because Mu-Hyuk definitely looked Asian. Then, there was only reason that Davey could think of for his presence here.

‘Is it like moving through different dimensions or something?’

-That is nonsense. Theoretically, it is impossible for a living thing to travel through different worlds with their physical body fully intact. No, the idea of a living person traveling to a different world is impossible in the first place.

Perserque was anxious, despite knowing it was impossible, because of Davey. There were a lot of unknown things in the world, and that was why even Davey couldn’t come to a definite conclusion.

To Davey, he was more interested in why the boy had come here instead of how. Nothing happened without a cause. Furthermore, if Mu-Hyuk had actually traveled across dimensions, Davey would have to abandon all the usual hypotheses.

-The divine will…

There was no way to tell if a godly presence truly existed, but divine will, a higher power, certainly did. And that would be the only power that could do something this unbelievable. This meant that there was a definite reason why the boy had come here.

‘Coincidence? No way.’

It was already ridiculous that a completely healthy Korean person had come to a different dimension, and that wasn’t even considering the fact that the person in question had gone on to bump into Davey.

‘How could this be a coincidence? In my case…’

Davey was ready to bet his entire fortune and his right hand that it was impossible for this to be mere coincidence.

There was a large flow of events that could not be resisted by the will of living people; in religions, they called this damn thing by one name:

[Destiny].

“U… Um! You can get me back home?! Right?! I… I was just going home, but I got sleepy… And then… Fxxk… This is…”

Confused, Mu-Hyuk suddenly stood up with a pale face. However, he stumbled as if tripping over his foot or something. He cried out, “Please… Please get me home! Hyung! Please! I don’t need anything like this! I don’t need these kinds of things from movies and books! Please get me home!”

Mu-Hyuk looked extremely desperate and panicked while grabbing onto Davey’s pants. It seemed like he had wandered alone after falling into this world. Davey didn’t know what he did before coming here, but he was still wearing a normal school uniform.

‘That means that he was just dragged here while attending school like any normal kid.’

“Can you? Hyung! Please!” Mu-Hyuk screamed in desperation, like he was expecting a positive answer. “My mom… My mom will be worried about me! Please, you have to save…

Gag!!

Mu-Hyuk suddenly covered his mouth and started gagging with a pale face. Davey immediately released his holy power and put his hand on the boy’s back, but even before it could reach him, Mu-Hyuk collapsed and flopped over as if he had lost consciousness.

“What is…?”

Perserque frowned at this strange situation.

-It might be good to talk to him another time.

Davey was speechless at this ridiculous situation: Mu-Hyuk had just fainted after screaming and freaking out by himself.
