He held up his flaming katana, which was swaying slowly, and said with delight, "Since we'll be fighting side by side from now on, we should have names."

"Hmm, is it called the Blazing Blade? Or the Meteor Shower?"

The flames on the blade flickered and danced, seemingly not particularly satisfied with the name Xia Jiaqi had given.

"Don't you like them? I think you're quite similar to them..."

hum-

The sword emitted a buzzing sound, as if in dissatisfaction.

"Then let's call him Pinoch, Flame Pinoch!"

The flames subsided, turning into a faint, burning heat that returned to the blade.

Shaga smiled and said, "It seems you really like this name."

The experiment ended, the katana turned into sparks and vanished into nothingness, and crimson tattoos climbed back onto Shaka's right arm.

Shaka found the bandages, wrapped them tightly around his arm, and shook hands with satisfaction...

"That way it won't attract too much attention."

Seeing that Shaka was safe and sound, Astraea couldn't help but gently hug Shaka.

"Lady Leah?" Shaga was taken aback.

The goddess unconsciously recalled the group of children who had returned to the heavens...

But Shaga is different; he is a descendant. Will he really return to this celestial realm?

Thinking of this...

"Don't try to be a hero anymore. I'd rather you disappear than uphold justice."

The goddess gently stroked Xia Jia's head, her healthy, radiant headlights pressing against his cheek. Xia Jia felt no ill will at that moment, only a sense of peace washing over him.

Is this what it feels like to be cared about?

not bad.

Xia Jia's brows relaxed, and she naturally leaned her body against the goddess's embrace. After a long while, a muffled sound came from within her breasts:

"Ah."

"Hey, Lao Xia, you're alive!" Tu Shou rubbed his eyes and got out of bed.

When she opened her eyes, she saw the bandages wrapped around Xia Jia's hands and her face was filled with horror:

"That, could it be..."

Xia Jia covered her eyes with one hand, striking a childish pose: "You guessed right, it's that one..."

"Hiss—" Dekomori stared at his legs in fear and took two steps back.

"My right hand is currently sealed with immense power. Once released, the world will be destroyed! Hmph."

Pinochius: Huh? When did I ever think about destroying the world?

Xia Jia: Just now.

Pinochius: I don't want to.

Deko watched as Shaka kept suppressing his right hand, which was now trembling with excitement as flame patterns seeped out from it.

"GateMaster! So cool! Death!"

"Haha, thank me! The world has been spared destruction because of me."

At this moment...

dong dong dong.

There was a knock on the door.

"Looks like I've come at the wrong time?" A gentle voice interrupted their self-congratulatory conversation.

Shaga stiffly turned his head and saw Leon looking at him with a broad smile. Moreover, he was knocking on the door that had been open for a long time.

this means……

"You saw everything?"

"Yeah. Saving the world and all that, what a great dream."

Xia Jia's face immediately turned red.

His head says, "Dark history +1, dark history +1."

It's obvious that anyone who can hang out with Dekomori and others must have some chuunibyou (middle school syndrome) tendencies. Acting tough and playing the hero is itself a form of chuunibyou.

In the world of DanMachi, the concept of a hero isn't considered childish or immature; rather, it's a respected identity. But...

"A world-destroying monster is sealed within my arm..."

"Ah, my right hand."

Lines like that were definitely spread throughout DanMachi by those gods and successfully became a meme known to everyone.

"Ahhhh-"

Xia Jia rushed up to Leon in a few strides, grabbed him by the collar, and started shaking him incessantly: "Forget it, forget it, forget it!"

"Haha, I'm not old enough to forget what happened two minutes ago." Leon let Shaga fool around in a relaxed manner.

With his arms crossed and a look of admiration on his face, Dekomori said, "Hmm, mortals cannot see through the great death of the Gate Master."

Stop talking. Level 7 is just a mortal. Does that mean I'm a clown?

"Am I right, great GateMaster!"

Shut up!

"The whole world should kneel down and thank you, GateMaster!" Dekomori patted Shaka on the shoulder, his face full of piety.

You did this on purpose, didn't you?

“GateMaster—”

"Enough! Shut up!" Xia Jia shoved a hand over Tu Shou's mouth, then stiffly turned his head and said:

“Excuse me, Professor Leon, we need to take care of some household chores. Would you mind leaving for a moment?”

Leon smiled and closed the door to leave.

Russian qing.

"Oh!"

"Eeya!" "Oh my god—"

A tearing scream came from inside the room, along with clearly audible slapping sounds.

The door opened, and Leon, still smiling, asked, "Are you done?"

Xia Jia pulled up his pants and thought about it seriously.

Tortoise shell binding + ahegao. Probably overdone. Then he nodded seriously:

"It's done."

……

In the reception room, Leon and Shaga sat facing each other.

"I'm sorry to bother you while you're still recovering from your injuries." Leon first bowed deeply to Astraea, then got straight to the point:

"Regarding the issue of our students' misbehavior leading to the death of a member of your family."

"Um..." Xia Jia scratched his face awkwardly and asked weakly, "If I said that the child didn't actually die, but was just moved to a safe place, would you believe me?"

Leon was stunned for a moment: "Really?"

Xia Jia nodded and placed a Flying Thunder God kunai on the table: "You've seen similar items before."

Leon wholeheartedly agreed: "Transfer magic, indeed. How convenient. So, regarding this matter..."

“However…” Shaga suddenly interrupted Leon, pressing closer and questioning, “Shouldn’t you give me an explanation? It’s too strange that a level 7 couldn’t protect me from that attack.”

Regarding this…

"Didn't you get the benefits?" Leon smiled mysteriously.

There were no surprises in Shaga.

He was just curious...

"Are you so sure that fairy will save me?"

"It's just an attempt. If it doesn't work, I can always use my sword to remove the branches from your body," Leon said casually.

In this era, it has been a long time since any human has been bound by a divine contract.

Having reached level 7 and transitioned from adventurer to educator, Leon was naturally one of the "insiders." To increase the chances of winning the future decisive battle, he nurtured his successor in his own way.
