"Hmmm… is the way here correct, right? I must be able to give you this sword! I don't want evil creatures to use it, I'm sure that whoever it chooses will definitely bring good to everyone!" murmured a girl who continued to walk for the sake of uncertain hope.
***
Arzlan and Alisha are still feeling wary, of course the previous meeting was not a coincidence. There must be a purpose behind everything that happened.
Arzlan stopped when four people blocked them
"Are they what you mean?" asked Adred.
"Yes, he is!" Point the man sharply at Arzlan. "One who has great strength and is quite terrifying!"
Adred's eyes narrowed, he tried to observe those two people. Their faces were covered by hoodies that only showed their lips.
That man's lips were half smiling which caused chills all over their body, they saw something terrible from that man.
"There's no mistaking it, he's the knight who's been slaying every single monster in this area!"
"What kind of energy is this? Why is there a creature that has this kind of great energy!" Bjoura said in a tone full of fear.
Adred bravely took a few steps forward then started to say "Who are you guys really?"
"What's your business with us?" replied Arzlan who again asked another question.
"I am the royal envoy to interrogate every person who crosses the border! I saw that you came from the elf territory, of course you have no right to enter this area!"
"Hehehe… so funny, I never remembered that the kingdom owned this territory! Has the kingdom you mean carried out a series of subjections to expand their territory?"
Adred started to raise his eyebrows. "From your tone, it is very clear you are not from human territory!"
"I'm not from any area, I'm just here to take revenge on the kingdom! And if you get in my way, I'll kill you right away!"
Adred became very surprised, what his two eyes saw was a person he knew. "Y-You…"
"Yes, it is me!"
Adred still couldn't believe that the person who was said to have died by the kingdom came back to life and now looking at him. "How can! Didn't you die from a monster attack while trying to level up with the soldiers?"
"How cunning, do you think the news is really true?"
Adred was unable to answer.
"You know that a kingdom that has been harboring a lot of lies, you're just a creature being used for their peace!"
"What do you mean? We have the title of Hero to protect all of humanity!"
"That's funny, why is it only the Scaevola Kingdom that you care, what about the entire territory and the living being within it? I am very surprised at you, a few days ago there was an attack on the Dwarven Village, and the ones who did that were the royal soldiers. Can that be used as a reason that they are good creatures? Those dwarves will be made slaves who work tirelessly in making the soldiers' equipment, you think all creatures deserve such treatment?"
"Dwarf village?" Adred's pupils dilated. "Could it be that you were the one who attacked the soldiers so they were viciously hanged in that village!"
"Yes, it was indeed my doing!"
"Are you crazy, it's the same as betraying yourself as a human!"
"Don't be naive, do you think anyone has thought of me as a human all this time? There is nothing All creatures that I have met, especially humans have destroyed all hope in my life, now I am back to give terror to all despicable creatures who have forgotten the rules from the creator to respect each other!"
Adred's group put on alert, the party consisted of Adred wielding a sword and shield, one member wielding magic, hammer, and arrows. At first glance their group is quite formidable, each weapon can complement each other so that they can establish very good cooperation.
"I will face that man, you will face his partner!"
"No, Hero Adred, I will help you to face that man, I believe that he is a strong opponent!
"Alright, we will face that woman!"
They have been in their respective positions.
"Two against one!" mumbled Arzlan.
The attack starts from Adred who runs fast using the Accelerator skill.
Things!!!
Arzlan slammed his sword to push Adred far enough.
"How can he be this strong!"
Bjoura took the opportunity, his rough and large club was in a position to hit Arzlan's head from behind.
Arzlan jumped to the side, but this actually made him have to prepare for the sword blow that would be done by Adred. That man made an instant move for getting ready to position Arzlan with a deadly slash.
"Raging Thunder Slash!"
Kaboom!!!
There was a loud bang, everyone was staring at the source of the explosion
"I'm sure that Master Arzlan is fine, now I have to focus on dealing with these two people!"
From behind the shield, Adred protected himself from the explosion. "What's that? Why did this slash of my sword suddenly explode, I see! He releases special energy to protect his body so that when my energy meets his there is a huge explosion. But, he has to accept the consequences of that!"
Adred thought that Arzlan would be injured due to his own skill, but things didn't work out that way. From within the white smoke that obscured the view, Arzlan suddenly appeared and threw a deadly attack at Adred.
Adred's eyes bulged, he swiftly took cover from behind the shield. "Anti Enemy Barrier!"
Thangs!!
The high-pressure slash again pushed Adred's body, the sword scratches remaining on the shield
"Seriously, this is the best shield of iron that is hard to come by, I tried my best to make it, but it still manages to give one pretty big scratch!"
Adred felt it was time to get serious. His right hand raised the sword upwards, instantly the sky darkened.
"Uh? What happened?" From the direction of 11 o'clock visible sparkle from behind the clumping clouds.
Arzlan is on a standby position.
"Thunder Storm Maximum!"
A flash of light flashed quickly towards Arzlan. The thunderous sound accompanied by explosions and flashes of light made people horrified.
Black smoke instantly enveloped the entire area.
"This is definitely impossible, but I still believe in Master Arzlan!" Alisha was not at all afraid of shooting her arrows.
"What's wrong with this girl? Why is she still shooting arrows even though it's very clear that her partner is in a corner, Hero Adred and Mr. Bjoura have come and she's will be finished!" muttered the arrow-wielding man.
