Chapter 8 Heroes of the Empire

In the noisy restaurant, people were drinking and making loud noises, and everyone seemed to be talking about the border battle, when an adventurer who looked some age suddenly shouted loudly.

"You know, I've heard the latest news from the front! The defenders guarding the border have all been killed by the demons. ”

"Nonsense, how is it possible!"

"It's just that if this happens, there will be a notification from above. ”

"I've said it's the latest news!The nobles have just learned of the news, and it's too late to announce it!" the middle-aged adventurer was a little drunk, and took a big sip of beer, "I heard it from a fellow villager." ”

"How is it possible, hasn't the fleet on the front line just returned, and I heard that this time there is a very powerful female knight who single-handedly repelled the entire demon army. The man below retorted.

"That's true, but the front line fell shortly after the fleet retreated!"

"According to what you say, is the demon army about to invade in a big way? ”

"It's just that the Empire's defense line is so solid that it can't fall easily. ”

"Don't listen to this guy's nonsense, keep drinking the bar. ”

The crowd didn't seem to believe the adventurer's words, and they still talked and laughed.

"It seems that the people of the empire are still in the dark. Haruka shook her head.

"Hey, is it true that the front line has been lost?" asked Haruka, unaware.

"That's right, the whole army was annihilated, just when I received the news when I met the emperor. ”

β€œγ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚γ€‚ Seid's face suddenly turned ugly, "The reason for your quarrel with Natalie can't be this... ”

"Well, almost. Haruka sighed, and the waiter on the side served them some wine, Haruka raised his glass and took a sip of it. "Ahemβ€”ahemβ€”" He choked on the intense smell of alcohol and coughed as he had never drunk again.

"Are you alright? Seid, who was on the side, picked up the tissue and handed it to him. "Is this the first time you've been drinking?"

"Yes. ”

"Then don't drink it. He tossed the cup in front of Haruka aside.

"It's okay, I'm going to try this today. Haruka took the cup back and took another big sip, the choking taste made him choke on tears.

"Okay, okay, I probably understand why you're angry. Saidra stopped Haruka, "Many times Natalie is a girl, and it is not easy, obviously she has lost everything, and she has to pretend to be strong, if it weren't for her, I'm afraid you would have died in the wilderness, right?"

"You're right, but ... Haruka shook off his hand and poured the rest of the wine from the glass into his stomach. "I don't know what to do now, I can't protect the people I want to protect, and I can't save the people I want to save. ”

"Don't be too yourself, we're just mortals, you've done it better than anyone else, aren't you? So beautiful and powerful, like a Valkyrie, active on the battlefield, as if you were out of reach. ”

"You're exaggerating, I'm not as powerful as you say... Maybe it's because of the strength of the wine, Haruka feels a little dizzy.

At this moment, the waiter served two large plates of food, some roasted pork, a large portion of vegetables, and some chicken and sausages.

"It's a good thing, so let's try it. Said carefully wiped the dishes and handed them to Haruka.

"Well, that looks good. Haruka picked up a large piece of meat and feasted on it.

"How's it going, little girl, we've got a good thing here?" said the boss.

"It's really good, it's been a long time since I've eaten such a delicious barbecue. ”

"That's right, I said, the food here is superb. Said replied triumphantly.

"Then you can enjoy it slowly, and I'll go back and continue entertaining the guests. ”

"Okay, boss walks slowly. Said greeted.

Haruka ate the food on the plate, and his originally heavy mood became a little better, "Thank you, Seid!"

"Well, thank me for what?"

"Thank you for taking me to such delicious food, I really need to adjust my mindset. Haruka said as she shoved a large mouthful of meat into her mouth.

"If only you could be happy. Said smiled, his gaze following Haruka.

"Look at what I'm doing, you can eat too. ”

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Seid's face flushed, and he lowered his head and fiddled with the food on his plate with his knife and fork. "That... Remote. ”

"Huh?"

"Actually, I... A long time ago ... ”

"Just what?"

"That... Seid suddenly became distracted, looking like he wanted to say something.

"Bang-" The door was pushed open with a bang, and a man ran in.

"Hey, the emperor seems to have some important news to announce!

"Important news?!" everyone stopped what they were doing and looked at him in confusion.

"Anyway, get out of here! ”

The people in the store walked out one after another.

"Let's go out and have a look, shall we?" Haruka suggested.

"Huh. All right. Seid nodded, and swallowed back the words that came to his lips.

The street was already crowded with people, almost all civilians walked out of the house and came to the street, only to see a huge magic projection in the sky above the central palace of the main city, reflecting an impact in the air, and the picture can see the emperor of the Albanian Empire, Bloom, sitting on the throne.

"Yu has a tragic news to tell the majority of the people, the defense line in the south of the empire has been captured by the demons, almost all the soldiers have died bravely, and the civilians behind the position have also unfortunately died. ”

The scene cuts to the front line, only to see that the city wall originally used for defense has been turned into a dilapidated rubble, and the town that was originally far away has been completely bombarded into a deep pit by the huge energy.

The people on the street couldn't help but exclaim, and everyone's faces showed unease.

"Yu's people, we have been forced to a dead end, if we don't launch a general attack on the demons, our homeland, our relatives, and everything we have will be taken away by the demons!

The picture flashed again, and the image of Haruka's previous battle with the demons was reflected in everyone's eyes, and under the cover of the imperial fleet, he was alone in the battle of the demon beast crowd......
