Novel The Max Level Hero has Returned!

Chapter 145

“I will investigate that problem. We have also captured Treve, the illusionist who betrayed us. I will try to find out more from him.”

“I’ll leave it to you, then.”

“We also have to take care of the other problems. It’s about the funeral for the knights who passed away and the trainees who have been hurt.”

“One trainee did pass away, but the rest seem to be fine. I don’t know if we should be glad or consider the situation unfortunate.”

“Really… I’m afraid of the damages that would’ve happened if we didn’t have Trainee Davey…”

The knight order had to admit what was true; the power and strength Davey had was beyond the scope of what they could understand.

“His achievements are huge. We must consider a medal and title for that, along with a reward. Not only that, but we must all show our gratitude for a trainee who has done such an honorable thing.”

One of the captains of the knight order asked, “So? So, where is this Trainee Davey who accomplished this great thing?”

“Well, he said he was going to rest in his dorm…”

Thump!!

“My apologies! A report!”

Everyone’s attention was drawn to the knight who suddenly barged into the meeting room.

“T… Trainee Davey has…”

“What happened! Has something happened to him?!”

As Davey had achieved something huge, they were wondering if he had gotten some sort of rebound effect from it.

“He…has left after leaving behind a letter!” The knight shouted as he pulled out a note.

[I will step back to support the knight order as a Roaming Knight.]

With the trainee declaring a long-term vacation from the start, the knights in the entire meeting room fell into silence.

* * *

Gaor, one of the captains who betrayed the knight order, had died, and all but one of the black-robed people who followed him had died as well. Furthermore, the clone of Shandra Minea they had tried to bring also died in Davey’s hands.

In terms of the outcome, Alpha Reinforcements was indebted to Davey. Although he was a trainee, this incident wasn’t something that should’ve been taken care of by a mere trainee.

“Ah…” Illyna let out a painful moan as she slowly opened her eyes.

“How are you? You okay?”

“It’s the worst…” Illyna looked even colder than usual due to the deep frown on her face. “This is…”

“The knight order’s headquarters.”

Illyna chuckled as she looked up at Davey with a blank face. “What did I expect? How could they have killed you?”

“It sounds like you wanted me to die or something.”

“You would be fine even if I prayed in the temple for a hundred days. And I never wanted something like that.” As Illyna spoke, she tried to get up. However, she couldn’t help but frown from the pain that followed.

“You’re going to have to rest for a few days. Go back to your kingdom.”

“…I remember this weird energy entering my body…” Illyna instinctively realized that something had happened to her body as she looked down at her hand, which looked somewhat thinner than usual.

“Davey.” Then, with a hoarse voice, Illyna called out to Davey and hugged him before he could even answer. “I’m glad you’re safe…”

Illyna seemed to disregard the state of her own body. She appeared to be more worried about Davey, and her sincere voice was full of relief. As Davey silently listened to her, Illyna began choking up. “I know you’re strong… But I was really nervous for some reason… I was really nervous this time…”

A transcendental being was no joke; Yulis and Illyna had called Davey crazy and monstrous and such, but even he couldn’t have beaten Shandra Minea with his overwhelming talent. After all, there was a limit to this power engraved in his soul, the circles he had rushed to create after waking up, and the fact that his body couldn’t metamorph. Shandra’s presence alone carried a different weight than Davey.

As Davey slightly raised his head while Illyna hugged him in tears, Perserque made an ‘X’ with her hands to stop him from doing anything weird. He simply wondered to himself,

‘I wonder if Illyna knows that my dream is to be a rascal.’

Crack!

“Kyah?!”

“It hasn’t even been that long since I massaged your muscles, and yet it’s like this again. You should learn how to use your body properly first. If you use too much mana, not only will it damage your muscles, but your organs as well. Do you want to be disabled?”

“Youuu!” Illyna shouted with teary eyes.

Davey flicked Illyna’s forehead. “You have a lot to say for someone who just almost died.”

“W—Where are you going?!”

“Back to the territory.”

“S—Shandra… What about the transcendental being?!”

‘Transcendental being? Oh, the transcendental being’s clone that was so strong it looked like the real thing?’

“I let it go.”

‘Perhaps I would have been able to talk to it if it was the real Shandra.’

Illyna frowned like she couldn’t understand Davey, but sighed after realizing what he meant by saying that and pointing upward to the sky. She was smart, after all. She said, “So… You’re saying that you killed the transcendental being? Did I hear you right? You got the transcendental being?”

“I got it and I got rid of it completely.”

“…You’re not human, are you? You’re like a dragon or some…”

“And Sio Howl is dead,” Davey said and threw a blanket at Illyna to cover her.

“Sio, that stupid…”

“He was already dead by the time I got there.”

There was a state where nothing, not even medicine or holy power, could cure; what was needed was the power of resurrection. Davey did have something similar, and he could have resurrected Sio if he really wanted to. However, there was no reason for him to do that.

-What is the price?

‘A year of my life. And I can only do it once in my life, according to the contract I have with God.’

Resurrection wasn’t just any spell. It was one of the 9th level ultimate holy magic spells; not only was it difficult to use, but the price of it was entirely different.

-It was a useless comparison.

Sio Howl was extremely talented, but his life still could not even compare to a year of Davey’s life. Davey didn’t exactly like him all that much and he really had no reason to be sad about Sio’s death. However, as a doctor, it didn’t feel very good to watch an injured person die right in front of him. Although, Davey did capture Treve, inhibit his illusion magic and hand him off to the knight order.

Even if Davey was called a saint, he was just someone who worshiped God and had made a contract with them.

“I’m going back to the territory. Don’t step foot into the Rowane Kingdom for the time being.”

“What?! Why?!” Illyna asked.

“Rest in your kingdom. And the Rowane Kingdom is going to be quite disorderly for a while. You’re a princess of an empire; I can’t help you if you barge in and get an earful.”

Illyna stayed quiet, seemingly in understanding. Although she had a problem with vampires, this was none of her business in the first place.

‘I’ve waited until now; how much longer do I have to wait?’

This was the last time Davey would be considerate to His Majesty.

As Davey turned away with a slightly dark gaze, Illyna urgently grabbed him by his clothes. She said, “Davey.”

“What?”

“Thank you…” Illyna lowered her head timidly, then added, “And don’t get hurt. If you do, my dreams are going to be too scary.”

Davey no longer frowned, chuckling as he heard Illyna.

‘I shouldn’t become down just because of some emotions; I’m being needlessly sentimental.’

“Okay.”

* * *

After leaving a short letter behind, Davey returned to the Heins Territory without even waiting for the trainees to wake up. Then, he called upon Monmider, captain of the royal guards, Amy, the estate’s substitute manager who was working in Davey’s place, and Bernile, Amy’s teacher.

“Did you call, sir?”

Monmider looked like a proper knight now. Davey had heard that the territory’s royal guards, who were a complete mess before, had come together quite nicely due to Sir Berman’s training.

The three of them looked tense as if they noticed Davey’s stern expression.

“Amy. Royal Attendant Bernile.”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Royal Attendant Bernile bowed his head for the both of them. Amy had somewhat of a title, but Bernile had a higher rank since he was from the family of a count.”

“I’m thinking of ending things at the royal palace.”

“Pardon?” Bernile widened his eyes in shock. He muttered, “What do…?”

Bernile was smart, so he knew exactly what Davey meant. He knew that Davey was going to end the feud, whether it was going to be the end of him or the royal palace.

“I’ve waited for His Majesty for too long. The Heins Territory will maintain its usual appearance no matter what happens during the process.”

Bernile stayed silent.

“And Monmider.”

“Yes—Yes, Your Highness!” Monmider shouted with a tense face. He seemed both worried and excited about Davey’s next plan. He was still distrusting of nobility and royalty, but he was loyal to Davey.

“You’re going to go where I tell you and meet someone.”

Even though he was loyal, Monmider still stared at Davey with a worried gaze. Being cautious was beneficial, and he still couldn’t totally let go of that quality of his.

57. I Will Drag You Out If You Don’t Come Out Yourself.

“I found them.”

“You found them?”

A figure suddenly began forming in empty space before a masked man appeared. It was Jack. He said, “Yes, there was a report stating people that looked similar to the missing people from each territory were found in the Oltias Territory, one of Duke Bariatta’s lands.”

“Any more details?”

“That was all I could find with my abilities. It was clearly something outside my capabilities. However…” Jack trailed off and mumbled in an eerie voice. He was furious. “There are several reports about some of those people. Their mummified corpses were thrown in the river after all the blood was sucked out of them.”

“Wow… How typical.”

The vampires were acting exactly how Davey expected them to. Vampires would secretly kidnap a specific human who met their conditions and suck out their blood until the human became a mummified corpse.

Davey had just ordered Jack to investigate the situation just in case, but he really hit the jackpot. Of course, they didn’t deserve to die because they were just vampires, but this was crossing the line.

Afterward, Davey drew up an image of the royal palace at the capital and got up from his seat.

“Where…are you going?”

“Keep digging for information. I’m heading to the royal palace.”

“You won’t be able to use the mana gate if you’re heading to the palace at this time.”

“Who said I was using the mana gate?”

‘Where else can I use my powers?’

Whoosh… Boom!!

As soon as Davey spoke, a large purple magic circle appeared on the ground. As it shone, Rinne appeared. She slightly widened her eyes before running over and holding onto Davey’s leg.

“Rinne follows where Sir Davey goes.”

“Why don’t you just stay here?”

“Rinne rejects.” Rinne was quite firm with her answer.

Davey then glanced at Jack who was staring at him with wide eyes. He asked, “Why are you surprised when you know everything?”

“Isn’t teleportation magic a 7th circle spell?”

‘Hm, he knows a lot since he’s a secret spy.’

“This isn’t teleportation.”

[8th Circle Magic: Space Jump]

[Warp]

This was a magic spell different from [Teleportation] and it was much more advanced.

Tzzzz

!!

Huge purple sparks vibrated near Davey, and with a strong shake, the scene in front of his eyes changed completely.
