Chapter 35 (2/2)

“Five kilometerTen kilometer…”

“Shall I lend you my Mana, Artpe?”

“You only have a modicum of Mana, so how…I found them”

He was about to grumble towards Maetel when Artpe’s eyes opened wide

The townspeople looked at him with nervous eyesAena looked at him with trust, since he had freed her body fro for them…

Artpe spoke to them in a solemn manner

“Let’s go create an epilogue”

The place was located at a hill that was pretty far froreat place to run into a Dungeon in the wild

In this world, there were exactly two types of DungeonsThe first type was the sleeping Dungeons that waited for a hero to find itThe other type were Dungeons eons contained dangerous traps, super secret inforeons that had to be hidden away

The coeons was the fact that heroes eventually found it to loot their contentsThe Dungeon in this hill would suffer the same fate

“You guys don’t have to follow me”

“You are helping us despite the dangers, so how can we stay behind…”

“You guys will get in the way, so just hide somewhere nearbyOf course, it isn’t my responsibility if you die in the process”

He was an ex-Four Heavenly King turned hero, so he was reet in the way of the Quest beforehand!

The townspeople becaers nearbyHowever, they couldn’t run ahile leaving their children behindThey firht froround

“W…ait for you hereAt the very least, ill greet our children from here!”

“Really?Aren’t you guys just scared by the fact that soldiers ain?”

“I…it isn’t like that!”

It seemed he hit the markArtpe smirked as he tried to enter into the cave located at the middle of the hill…

“I want to go with you”

“AhYou again?”

Aena blocked their wayShe held a branch in one handIt was a weapon that even a goblin would have an easy ti

“The children will be afraid if only ician-nim’s party enters The children need at least one familiar face”

“It isn’t as if your words don’t have merit, but you……”

She would be perfect for the part of a supporting cast who died e at her death, and the boost provided by the emotion would lead the hero into victory

In truth, the girl’s words were raising so y was unbearableIt wouldn’t be strange if she fell dead right now!At the same time, it was also likely that she would come back out unharmed, since the circumstances was a bit suspicious

“I beg of you, ician-nimI know these children the bestThey are already afraid froician-nie mistake may occur……!”

She had put a lot of thought into this At this point, he couldn’t turn turn her downFroive up on Aena’s lifeYes, if she’s meant to die, she would find a way to die eventually!

“All rightYour sacrifice will make it more likely that the children would be unharmed”

“Why issafe!?”

“Let’s go, MaetelI’ll leave the fighting to youWhen I tell you to stop, you have to stop”

“I understand!”

The party consisting of the two heroes and the Village Girl A left behind the townspeopleThey charged into the caveThere was a very dark and dreary energy circulating within the caveA curse was eon’s airTo be precise,it was curse ate a different spell

“You ht?”

Artpe took out the Obsidian, and it sucked in all the cursesHe never expected to find such a treasure within the normal town A at this point in ti’s army!

“YesAs expected, I think Artpe would becoood fatherOoh-hue-hue”

Maetel watched Artpe fill the Obsidian with the curseShe looked on with satisfaction as she mumbled to herselfAena wondered if she could trust these heroes that acted very strangely starting frohts, but she also didn’t have much choiceShe followed behind them

When they entered a little bit deeper into the cave, the enemies soon appearedThe soldiers they had seen from the toas mixed in with a batch of soldiers they had never seen before

Thea hooded robe standing within their midst

“Huht!?They are intrudersIntruders!”

“Be carefulHe’s the e I saw in town…!”

“Magician?That brat is one?”

It see found outThey iot ready to attackIt , and they were prepared to kill to fulfill their goals

At this point, he was sure that there was a connection between the archduke, the black ’s arrinded his teeth, but Maetel took one step forward before he was able to

“You arechildren into monsters…It’s bad”

Maetel’s eerArtpe realized she had already finished judging as good and evil

“Anyways, we……”

This was the part where the hero and the villains confronted each otherThe villains would lay out their twisted logic behind their actions as they mocked the hero

The hero would becouys liked to talk while fighting, so they would prattle on about the righteousness of their actionsThey would try to justify their causeThe hero would get angry once again at their wordsThe Death Knight within the Dungeon reat example of this

“Be quiet!Shut the hell up!”

However, the current situation was differentMaetel swung her bastard sword once before her enemies could pull their swords out or activate a spellThey all fell to the floor

She hadn’t activated her BerserkShe wasn’t even using her Strike skillIt was a light attack that possessed not a single ounce of Mana

“Hoo-oooooh”

They were coive their linesThe on sealed within its right arm!

“Heeeek······”

Aena had depended on theicianHowever, when she saw the terrible sight created by Maetel, her face turned pale

On the other hand, Maetel was the one who had created this terrible sight, yet it didn’t feel real to herShe tilted her head in confusion as she turned to speak to Artpe

“They are too weak, Artpe”

Artpe did a double take when he heard her words, but a smile soon broke out on his faceHe nodded his head at her

“It’s all right”

Usually, a normal hero’s first quest was accompanied by failure and hardshi+psHowever, they had unintentionally leveled up as dom of DiazIn other words…

“Since we are progressing towards part 2, this is normal”

“Part 2?”

Maetel titled her head in puzzlement, but Artpe just smiled at herWhile Aena was still in an utter state of confusion, the heroes went through the entire Dungeon

No one could get in their way
