In the sky, just as the magic array burning with flames unfolded, the four giant dragons let out a deafening roar, and at the same time cast a tenth-order magic, only to see the four-colored light shine, a four-color barrier immediately enveloped all the human beings, making all the trembling human beings breathe a sigh of relief.

After ten seconds of casting time, the entire space trembled, all the roars fell silent, and everything outside the space where the throne was located instantly evaporated, even the elements in the air.

The four-color barrier trembled violently, as if it would break in the next moment. In desperation, the dragons could only shrink the barrier, and in an instant, hundreds of thousands of warriors evaporated and died without even shouting a wail.

When the Demon King's super-level magic ended, the surrounding area had turned into a desert with a howling wind.

"W-What is this......" Kenneth murmured in horror as he looked at the desert battlefield and the dwindling human legions, his tongue like a knot.

Syd closed his eyes in pain, even after more than six hundred years, this scene still pierced Said's old heart, and his spiritual body was shaken.

Kenneth looked at Syd beside him, pursed his lips and didn't know what to say, and looked up at the Demon King who was still shrouded in black mist: Is this really an enemy that humans can defeat?

"Super-level magic, which is a magic located above the tenth order, is unimaginably powerful, and we have lost nearly 300,000 people in just one blow. Hephaestus and they can only barely use super-level magic if the four dragons work together, while the demon king can do it on his own. You can imagine how powerful he is now, right? ”

All Kenneth could do was nod silently, then silently look at the battlefield below.

After the four dragons lifted the barrier, the morale of the human side had dropped to freezing point, and the warriors looked up at the demon king who seemed to be supporting the heavens and the earth alone, and their whole bodies trembled uncontrollably, and the fear turned into the most terrible demon, which immediately spread to the entire army.

"Don't be afraid! Wouldn't it make the dead laugh at shame?! But it was Syd who raised his gun and shouted, his back also had a heroic majesty that was not inferior to that of the Demon King, and the dragon's heart on his chest appeared with a dazzling light, as if echoing him, and the chest of the surviving more than 500,000 human warriors also appeared with a red light, dispelling the fear in his heart.

"Clan hatred, family hatred, today a battle to pay for it! All the soldiers of the army, charge with me!! A loud cry burst out of Said's mouth, and he flew into the air with Hephaestus, and pointed his spear at the Demon King Vantel Cheni on the throne!

"Rush!! For the sake of the Terrans!! The warriors, inspired by Said's words and courage, shouted their slogans and rushed to the throne with their weapons held high.

The other three heroes looked at each other fearlessly and smiled, and the same dragon flew into the air, fighting the demon king side by side with Seid.

The demons also roared and rushed towards the human army, and the moment the two black tides collided, countless creatures died, but they were immediately trampled under the feet of their successors.

Just as the four legion commanders met the four demon dukes, the four heroes in the air also began to fight with the demon king.

Both sides are full of malice towards each other, and then reluctantly embrace death.

Since the four heroes entered the black fog to fight the Demon King, Kenneth couldn't really see it, and could only see the magic array that loomed from time to time.

The battle lasted for about half an hour, and just when Kenneth was full of anxiety, he suddenly heard a deafening roar, and even the heavens and the earth were shaken: "Ah!! The hateful dragon, the hateful ant, dare to let Lone be wounded! ”

"Destroy, ants!"

With this roar, the black mist on the demon king's body became even deeper, and a big black hand suddenly stretched out from the black mist, and then pulled down, actually dragging the four holy stars in the sky above his head!

This scene made Kenneth directly speechless, this kind of power, can the four heroes match?

The answer is no.

Seeing that the Demon King was about to use the elemental power of the Four Holy Stars to cast super-level magic again, the four heroes who had already been injured were not sure that they would be able to kill the Demon King within the casting time, so they immediately decided to retreat and use the tenth-order teleportation magic to teleport all the Terran warriors away, ending the curtain of this final battle.

Only the cold words of the Demon King were left to echo under the entire sky: "The clan listens to the order, slay the last dragon, and slaughter all human ......"

The illusion vanished, turning into a white mist again.

Kenneth went limp, and sat on the mist as if he had experienced the decisive battle himself.

Syd sat cross-legged next to Kenneth and said in a heavy tone, "Want to know what happened in that black fog?" ”

Kenneth looked at Syd and nodded.

Said said with a self-deprecating smile: "That bastard demon king just sat there and let us attack, the four of us couldn't even break his defensive magic, and in the end, it was only by relying on the four dragons to cast a super-level magic 'divine fire' to break his defense, and I successfully pierced his palm, causing him to shed a drop of black blood." ”

Kenneth opened his mouth wide: "No, the legend says that you seriously injured the Demon King?" ”

Said smiled and waved his hand, his smile a little bitter, "That legend is just a lie we made up. In that decisive battle, we lost nearly 400,000 combat power, three heroes were dying, if you tell people that we consumed half of the human race and only injured the palm of the demon king's hand, do you think people can accept it? Will the remaining fighters still have the courage to continue fighting? ”

Kenneth was speechless.

"Kenneth, now that you have seen the power of the Demon King, tell me, do you still want to continue to be a hero?" Said sat across from Kenneth, eyeing Kenneth and asking Kenneth a slow, heavy question.

Kenneth opened his mouth, but didn't answer as immediately as he had done before.

Kenneth really didn't understand what a hero was, but there was no doubt that he had to be a human who could defeat the Demon King.

Before meeting Hephaestus, Kenneth was just a country kid in Tushan Town who longed for heroes and played hero games, ordinary and unremarkable, without Mick's excellent magician talent, nor inherited his father's adventurer talent, just a little kid who couldn't be ordinary anymore.

Even if Kenneth gradually becomes an existence that needs to be looked up to by others because of the influence of the fire dragon's protection, he is still just a little kid in Tushan Town.

And now sitting in front of Syd is the little brat.

Can such a little kid defeat such a terrifying demon king?

Kenneth was not arrogant enough to think that he would be better than Syd in front of him, and he was probably inferior to Mick in terms of talent, if he wasted the opportunity for humans to defeat the Demon King because of his momentary recklessness, and even made humans pay an unbearable price, then could he afford this responsibility?

Of course, he can't afford to be responsible.

Acceptance means that he must take on the heavy responsibility of defeating the demon king and shoulder the fate of the human race; Giving up means that he must return to the identity of ordinary people, but it may make it more worthy of being a hero.

Kenneth suddenly remembered what his father used to say to himself: "Man, you have to know how capable you are." ”

Kenneth never considered himself a good boy, but he was not so willful as to take the fate of the whole human race as a child's play for the sake of being handsome.

For the first time in his life, Kenneth, who had always been single-celled, was so entangled.

Syd quietly looked at Kenneth, who was huddled together because of his tangled facial features, and a cold chill flashed in his eyes.

I don't know how long it took, Kenneth stretched out his hands, and then slapped them on his cheeks, although it was only a spirit body, it still made Kenneth feel a hot pain in his face.

Seid looked at Kenneth and asked, "Figured it out?" ”

Kenneth nodded, but fell cross-legged in front of Said, and then said loudly, "I'm sorry! I'm really sorry! ”

Killings gradually appeared in Said's eyes, but his tone remained calm: "It seems that you have made a decision." ”

"That's right, I've made up my mind." Kenneth raised his head and grinned, smiling brightly but silly, and said to Said, "I still want to be the hero who fights alongside Hephaestus!" ”

Seid was stunned, but he didn't expect Kenneth's decision to be this, so he asked curiously, "Then why do you want to apologize to me?" ”

"Because I probably won't be able to complete the two things you asked me to do, uncle, so I'll apologize to you in advance!" Kenneth's eyes were clear, and he no longer had any hesitation, and he turned back to the original simple Kenneth again.

Syd was confused by Kenneth's words, scratched his scalp and said, "You know you can't complete the hero's mission, but you still want to be a hero?" ”

Kenneth nodded briskly, "That's right, that's it." ”

But it provoked Seid: "Are you looking down on me?!" Are you kidding the lives of all human beings?! ”

"No, I'm serious, if it's just me, I can't fulfill the hero's mission, but," Kenneth's young and immature face was extremely serious, and he continued without any doubt, "I still have my best friend, and with him by my side, I have enough confidence to slay the Demon King, even if it costs my life, I will be worthy of the name of a hero." ”

Syd and Kenneth looked at each other for a long time, as if moved by Kenneth's words, and asked the question he had asked Kenneth before: "Then what do you want to be a hero now?" ”

"Defeat the Demon King and create a world where the weak can live freely, and then I will definitely be the most handsome man in the world, right, uncle?" Kenneth bared his white teeth and said in a rather narcissistic way, but with an uncanny charm.

Said was silent for a long time, then laughed wildly and said, "Roar, it's interesting, you little devil is so interesting!" If it were you, you might be able to do it! Congratulations, Kenneth Lancelot, you've now passed the test and are ready to receive your Heroic Legacy! ”
