A quiet night breeze blows.

Kano sat on the roof and looked into the distance, he was a revered paladin. However, at this moment, his expression was a little confused, his handsome side face was reflected in the moonlight, and the whole person seemed to have no sense of direction. The nights in Lakeside are quiet, only the barking of dogs can be heard every now and then, the patrol guards change shifts every once in a while, and many human towns have been heavily guarded since the appearance of demons. Today's moonlight is a little dim, with a faint hint of blood, which looks unsettling.

"What's wrong?"

A tall figure appeared next to Kano, and at first glance her face was so beautiful that it was easy to think that she was a woman, but if you looked closely, you could tell that she was a man.

It's a wood elf.

The Wood Elves live in the forest area, are a branch of the High Elves, and have a lifespan of only about three hundred years, inheriting the beauty from the High Elves, and they are all natural marksmen.

"Nothing."

Kano shook his head slightly, as a paladin, it was actually difficult for him to find a team of adventurers willing to accept him.

This has to be said to be a kind of sadness.

Because of the fact that pure kindness and justice could not be accepted by the people, Kano used to travel independently for a long time, and the other adventurers did not reject him, but they did not want to go with them. Because the adventurers are afraid that the holy warriors will cause unnecessary trouble, and they are afraid that the holy warriors will have an excessive sense of justice, and they may even be the evil people themselves considered evil by the holy warriors.

Kano traveled alone for a long time.

The sense of mission to uphold justice guides him forward, and it also makes him stronger and stronger!

But this has never allowed him to find his true direction, especially the recent changes in the world, which makes him feel extremely lost.

He's not young anymore.

As the proverb goes, the older paladin's eyes always show sadness and helplessness.

Kano was a little confused.

He wasn't sure if he could really make a difference in the world, and the passion of his youth had worn off a lot. He no longer believes that light and justice are the only truths in the world.

Darkness is also there.

All he is doing now is struggling to maintain that little bit of truth, goodness and beauty!

The more powerful.

I feel more and more small.

Kano didn't know how long he would be able to hold out, because he had seen too many dark and evil things in the past year.

"Alas!"

A faint sigh sounded, and the elves' voices were always magnetic, and they had the grace of nature.

The wood elf sitting next to Kano shook his head and said slowly, "Are you still blaming yourself for what happened during the day?" We've done our best! ……”

Things to do during the day.

Thinking of this, Kano's eyes couldn't help but show a trace of sadness, anger and helplessness.

The current team of adventurers is the best companion he has met in so many years. They are kind and full of a sense of justice, and Kano has done a lot of good things with them. On their way to Lakeside during the day, they passed through a small village, where they found wandering demons, and although they had stopped everything in time, many innocent people had died.

Demons are so cruel.

Even three-year-old children were spared, and the poor villagers suffered heavy casualties.

Thinking of what he saw during the day, Kano's heart was filled with a sense of powerlessness, he had encountered many such things along the way. But there's really not much he can do.

"This guy just has a strong sense of justice! ……”

"The world is getting more and more chaotic, and it's good that we can live well. Do you know the mistletoe of their troops? All of them were planted some time ago......"

"All dead at the hands of cultists! ……”

A halfling figure appeared, holding a wine jug in his hand, looking a little hanging, it was the halfling who hadn't been seen for a long time - Aladdin. I don't know where he went after the events in the City of Fortune, but this time he happened to show up here, and he also mixed in with a very good team of adventurers.

Hearing Aladdin's words, the wood elf couldn't help but sigh.

The world is getting worse and worse.

These days, even the life of adventurers is not so stable. Normally a safe route, you can now encounter a tricky monster like an ogre.

An otherwise balanced biological chain of many races. Now it's almost completely destroyed.

Now even the Druid Order has a lot of headaches.

Kano couldn't help but sigh when he heard this, and he didn't know what to say for a while. Ideals and reality were eating down his will, and he felt that if he continued like this, he might not be able to stick to those beliefs at the beginning.

"Where's the wine?"

"Where's my wine?"

There was a loud voice characteristic of dwarves, and then a burly dwarf with a mopping beard climbed up, he was very tall, and with the dwarf race could grow to more than one meter seven. Only special bloodlines can do this.

This guy weighed probably 300 pounds, and the roof shook when he climbed up.

"Here."

"Here you go!"

Aladdin threw the flask over, and for a moment he didn't know how to comfort the paladin next to him, he felt that the paladin was sometimes like a girl, and it didn't matter what happened to them. It would be nice to be able to help as much as you can. The paladin, who carries such lofty ideals all day long, is too tired and stupid, and the entire adventurer team is very supportive of the Wood Elves' belief in Kano.

"Huh?"

"Am I dazzled?"

Aladdin, who had just thrown the flask over, was suddenly stunned, then stretched out his hand to the sky in amazement and muttered, "Look over there!" A crack opened in the sky! ……”

He wasn't dazzled.

The sky in the distance turned blood-red at some point, and then a black gap appeared, followed by the appearance of countless demons.

It's not cowardice, it's not a quay, it's a real demonic elite.

Aladdin saw hordes of succubi with outstretched wings, a berserk demon weighing more than 2,000 pounds like a wall, and even the terrifying Soul Judge and Barlow.

These demons emerge from cracks in the sky. In an instant, he pounced on the location of Lakeside Town.

Bell Block!

A sharp alarm bell sounded, and the vision in the sky undoubtedly alarmed the guards.

But it all happened so quickly that before the Lakeside guards could gather, dozens of demons had already entered the town.

At the head is a legendary-level Balor.

He laughed and slaughtered the humans who dared to stand in His way, so weak that none of them could withstand His blow.

A raging fire is burning!

The hideous and terrifying figure of the demon hunting spider emerged from the darkness. They hunted one target after another with ease, and in the blink of an eye, dozens of people had already been killed.

"Demonic ......"

"Demon Legion! ……”

Aladdin couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva, and his voice seemed to tremble a little: "This is the Demon Legion of the Formation!" …… The bottomless abyss, only the demon legion has such combat power! ……”

It's an army of demons.

Although they are still chaotic in battle, the traces of command can be clearly felt.

It was a one-sided massacre!

The guards of Lakeside Town did not have any ability to block at all, and they were completely one-sided suppression, and it was estimated that they would be able to resist for a few minutes at most.

"Shall we run?"

"It's still too late to run! ……”

Aladdin glanced at his companion who was also extremely shocked, and muttered, "So many demons! I'm afraid that we are all legends, and we may not be able to fight! ……”

"Wait a minute, they're coming! I'm afraid we won't be able to leave if we want to! ”

A terrible cry came.

The demons have begun to rush into the residential area, and the screams of innocent people are everywhere!

The burly dwarf's expression was also a little frightened, and the wood elf's face was very pale. Whispered, "This is the Abyss Gate!" …… How could there be so many! ……”

Kano's expression was complicated.

It seemed like for a moment a myriad of thoughts flashed through his mind, but then his expression gradually became firm.

There was a commotion below the hotel.

The sudden arrival of the demon panicked many adventurers, and then many people fled desperately, and many of the people who fled for their lives farther away, many of the guards simply gave up their resistance and ran out of the town with their armor thrown away.

This is not at all an enemy that they will be able to fight against!

"Let's go."

Kano took a deep breath and slowly gripped the long sword at his waist, he was so hard. So much so that the knuckles are a little whitish.

The Paladin, who was not young, lowered his head, unable to see the expression on his face. He just said in a solemn voice, "Let's go." There are so many demons! ……”

"If you don't leave, it's too late! ……”

With that, he slowly stood up and jumped straight off the roof.

"Kano!?"

The wood elf seemed to understand something, and his face suddenly became quite complicated, and he muttered, "You...... What about you? ……”

There was a tremor in his voice.

The others seemed to understand something, and the eyes they looked at Kano were quite complicated.

"I can't go."

Kano didn't look back. Instead, he continued to move forward step by step, his steps seemed to become more and more firm, and he said in a deep voice: "The Holy Warrior can't leave at this time!" ……”

"How can I sit idly by and watch the demons slaughter humanity! And he cowardly ran away? ”

Kano didn't stop.

In the blink of an eye, he was already dozens of meters away, and in the distance was the light of fire in the sky, and the figures of countless demons gradually appeared. They laughed wildly and vented their killing**, and the bursts of terrible screams seemed to make them even more happy!

Kano was surrounded by people who were fleeing for their lives.

There were soldiers, civilians, and adventurers, all desperately trying to escape this terrible place, and he was the only one who kept moving on in silence, even though he knew that death would greet him.

He was a paladin.

He can't go at this time!

Maybe he was once lost and didn't know where the future would go, but at least he now knew what he should do.

A little bit of brilliance emerges.

Kano's sword shines with a holy radiance, a power that belongs to the Sacrifice.

It is also a kind of wordless tragedy!

Under the dim blood-red sky, a young paladin walked towards thousands of demons, and in the last moments of his life, he was finally no longer confused.
