Most people who have come into contact with demons or have been seduced by demons will fall into madness. The remnants of the demon's will will continue to torment poor humans, making them gradually unable to distinguish between reality and falsehood, dreams and reality. Only a very small number of strong-willed and convicted people can overcome the corruption of demons.

Decard Kane is going to support Liszt with Austin and Kasya's Rogges, although the two old men over half a hundred years old are dragging their feet, but the speed of the team is also surprisingly fast, which is also due to Liszt's elimination of many demon leaders, so that they can rarely see raging demons along the way.

Kane has been dreaming about his childhood lately, when his mother, Adelaide Kane, was telling the story of Archangel Oriel to a group of curious children his age. At a very young age, Kane had heard his mother tell these legendary stories, and even knew that the land beneath his feet was home to the legendary Diablo, Diablo. But Kane, who watched his mother tell these stories, didn't care. Ever since he grew up, he no longer believed in the illusory angels and demons, heroes and legends of his mother's tales. If there really is a demon, then why doesn't it manifest itself? Kane was more interested in studying the history of Westmar. While his mom was focused on the other children, Kane sneaked back.

Kane was obsessively flipping through a history of the sons of Westmar and Lakis, and he was fascinated by the scholarly texts—something that was definitely not of interest to his mother in the slightest.

"Kane, you're sneaking away again, what, don't you want to hear these stories?" Idles noticed Kane's disappearance, stopped talking, and returned home to the wistful gaze of the children. Seeing the book in Kane's hand, Adelaith said: "Kane, you have to remember that you are the leader of Hradim, the direct descendant of Jared Kane, and the only heir of this great family, and your mission is to protect the sanctuary from the invasion of demons, and these books in your hands will not help you in any way!" With that, Adelaide snatched the book from Kane's hand, ignoring Kane's angry gaze.

"Mom, I've heard enough of your stories, they are all false and non-existent! Can't you see the way other people look at you? Kane couldn't bear it, he didn't believe the false words of his mother's mouth at all.

"Kane, remember, that's not a story, it's a history that really happened! As the last heir of this heroic family, you have a heavy responsibility, but this is your destiny, and you can't avoid it! Adelaide said sternly.

"It's your responsibility, your fate!"

"You're the last member of Hradim!"

"The only heir of this heroic family!"

Kane was awakened by this familiar dream, and he looked at the dark sky of the Blood Wasteland, and was silent for a long time. Just a few months ago, the words of his mother, Adelais, finally came true. However, Kane, who was only concerned with the pile of old papers, failed to warn people of the impending darkness, and even ruined the best time to seal Diablo, causing countless innocent deaths. Every night, he could feel the ghosts of the dead hovering around him, accusing him of inaction and inresponsibility, which made him feel bitter and guilty. He spent the first half of his life doing nothing and not being able to contribute anything to the world. And now it is the heroic Liszt and his companions who have saved the world from extinction. Kane is often caught up in confusion about the value of his existence, and he doesn't know how to deal with himself without Austin's company.

But after so many evils and setbacks, Kane understands that he must interpret Hradim's prophecy and tell everyone about the crisis facing the world, so that people can resist the coming of the end of the world and not wait for death in silence. This is his mission, this is the supreme glory of being a member of the last Hradim!

Kane and his party soon arrived in the icy wasteland, stunned by the battlefield in front of them - filled with huge craters that were steaming and even burning people's skin. The ground was littered with arrows, and there were two bodies lying undecomposed.

Seeing this, Kashya immediately stepped forward to observe the corpse's appearance. To her surprise, the corpse of the archer turned out to be her former target, her mentor, the Blood Crow! She couldn't believe that Liszt had defeated this powerful archer, and even the Rogers behind her were stunned by the news. Kane observed another corpse on the other side, a woman of great beauty, dressed in a gorgeous red robe, like a sleeping beauty. But the huge wound on her chest, and the blood on the corner of her mouth, completely ruined the beauty of this perfect work of art. Kane looked at the corpse with a frown, and he had a special feeling.

"What's wrong, Kane?" Austin saw Kane thinking about the corpse and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Who is she?" Doesn't look like she's a demon? ”

"But she's more cruel and terrible than demons." Kane said, "She is the evil countess who slaughtered young girls in order to maintain her youth forever, but I didn't expect her to come back to life, and it seems that her new demon master has done good deeds." ”

"Is there anything special about her? Don't tell me you're attracted to her beauty. Austin looked at Kane, who was still staring at the corpse in a daze, and put his elbow on his waist, and said with a wicked smile.

"Don't talk nonsense!" Kane glared at the disrespectful Austin, and then explained, "I feel a magical aura in her, but she's been dead for a long time, and there shouldn't be any magic left, even if she's an archmage." ”

"Could it be that she has some other magical equipment on her?" Austin thought for a moment and said, "In Kegistan, many nobles will be equipped with some magical equipment for self-defense, but more to show their nobility. Austin shook his head.

Although Kane didn't feel like some kind of magical equipment, he decided to search the relics on the countess. Although the countess is dead, her body is basically intact, and Kane, in order to avoid embarrassment, still asks Rogers to search the countess's body instead of him.

It didn't take long for the countess's body to be stripped to the ground, but fortunately the Rogers covered her with a ragged blanket, otherwise the countess would have come back to life in shame and burned the greedy people.

Rogers handed Kane three strange stones and said, "Mr. Kane, here we found two of these strange stones from her, and one fell into the grass next to her. ”

Kane took the stones, and he could clearly feel that the things that had just exuded a magical aura were these three stones. He looked curiously at the runes carved on the stone, studied it for a while, his face changed greatly, and he exclaimed: "This is ......"
