Chapter 8 - HE IS THE HERO ? (2/2)

”Lord Lockhart? I don't know any noble house with that name” said the noble girl confused.

”No, look above that.” said the noble guy

At this point, Karen finally realized what the guy was talking about and said, ”HERO”. As she said that quite loudly without realizing, everyone else finally noticed the word HERO written in Glaze Lockhart's stats.

The title of HERO can't be faked with any skill in the world, it is something that is bestowed by the gods and is not something mortals can hide or change or fake.

As everyone realized this they were shocked and realized that the guy they were looking down on who later went against the natural law was the HERO that was going to be summoned by King Everheart.

So the rumors of the King trying to summon a Hero were true?, thought the guy in a white robe with a staff, with a calculating look.

Karen on the other side was shocked that the King actually managed to summon a hero. She knew the summoning ceremony was going to happen today but didn't expect it to finish so quickly. Not to mention, according to her information, all Heroes that were summoned in the past were level 5 or less. They had very powerful skills and leveled up faster than anyone else in the world, but she had never heard of a hero that started at Level 10.

Given the time of summoning and how they were practicing, this was his first time using magic and killing monsters. Which means he really was summoned being directly at Level 10, isn't that terrifying. And he actually leveled up to Level 13 so quickly. I don't think any of the heroes of the past leveled up three times on the first day of being summoned.

And he seems too close to that Commoner Princess, this is not good. She is already powerful by herself but she has practically zero support in the Kingdom. But this is the Hero, if she gains the support of the Hero, no one will be able to take away her title of Crown Princess.

Karen was spewing venom with her dark aura flaring at this point, but she knew her limits , there was no way she could take on the Hero, even though he was 6 levels below her she saw the terrifying strength of the hero and his sword , not too mention the King and Princess wouldn't just sit by and let her kill him. After all, there was a huge amount of wealth of the entire nation invested in the summoning ceremony to summon the hero.

I need to talk about this to Aunt Avery, we need to do something to get the Hero away from the Crown Princess. They can't be allowed to be together.

As Karen walked back to her house, Glaze was being dragged by the Princess with his arm being held between her huge tɨts as she ran back to the palace at high speeds.

”Princess, you told me about the levels till the Master Stage, but you didn't talk about the Legend Stage, Commander Alesia told me about the Queen of Neverwinter, Olivia Neverwinter, who apparently is a Legend Stage mage? ” asked Glaze trying to wiggle his hands out of the Princess's tɨts.

”Ara ara, are you interested in that Queen, Lord Glaze ?. She certainly is quite beautiful but she is not as curvy as this onee-san you know?” she looked at Glaze with a teasing smile.

Glaze just looked at her with a blank look, after spending so much time with her, he expected such a reply.

”Fufu, I don't know much about the Legend stage, there has never been a person from Everheart to reach the Legend Stage so there is not much information about it, or how to get them. She is the only known Legend Mage in the Human Realm.

”Human Realm?” asked Glaze confused.

”A long time ago, the world was split in two, as to how that happened, no one knows. When the world split, the side of the world where there was an abundance of magic was occupied by the Humans who could use it to become stronger , this side is called the Human Realm, the other side which permeated with Devil Qi , which the demons use to become stronger is called the Devil Realm.”

”The Human Realm and the Devil Realm together are part of the Greater World where everyone lives, there are other realms that are part of the Greater World but they are much weaker compared to the Humans and Devil realms, or at least that's what was taught to us since we were kids” said the Princess as we reached the castle.

”What is the difference between these stages? Is it just that they can use stronger magic?” asked Glaze as he was finally let go by the princess.

”Its not just magic strength, it's the abilities that you gain when you advance stages. The reason why Queen Olivia and Neverwinter is so strong and feared is because, at the Legend Stage, you can form your own domain. Anyone in your domain is subject to your own laws. Queen Olivia's Domain is the Ice Domain, anyone within the domain, regardless of the number, will be suppressed by multiple levels and be constantly damaged by the Absolute Zero level temperatures, and inside her domain, she is invincible, this is why no army can match Neverwinter, as long as Queen Olivia uses the domain, the advantage of an army decreases greatly, then her army who is not at a disadvantage can easily take care of the enemy.” she said looking at Glaze carefully.

”That sounds quite terrifying,” said Glaze,” Are there special abilities for every stage ?” he asked.

”Yes, at the Expert Stage you can fly, but the consumption of Mana is high so not everyone can do it for a long time so most people avoid it at the Expert Stage but it is used more by people at the Master stage who have a lot more mana.”

”At the Master Stage you become one with magic obtaining the Divine Magical Pattern, you can then use the magic in your surrounding area and convert it to your magic, thus being able to unleash large scale area of effect magic,” she said putting her arm around Glaze's arm and walking into his temporary quarters.

”Ah, you can fly your highness?” asked Glaze surprised.

”Ara ara, did you want me to take you in my arms and fly here instead of walking with me ?” she said looking at Glaze mischievously as she closed the door of the room behind.
