Under a stone, there grew a seedling with only three leaves, and a drop of dew hanging on the leaf.
The Demon King sat on the stone and looked at Rena who was practicing seriously on the wooden stake. She was waving the wooden sword and practicing her steps on the wooden stake.
Sure enough, there hasn't been much progress. Judging from the proficiency level, she does practice every day, but there is no breakthrough. If she continues like this, she doesn't know when her practice will be effective.
"That's enough, let's test your practice results."
The Demon King stood up as he spoke, and the wooden sword stuck on the ground flew into his hand with a clatter.
"Um."
Reina jumped off the wooden stake, knowing that the next step was a battle with her master.
She decided that she must perform well this time and show her master her own special move.
"Are you ready?"
The Demon King asked. He stood upright, with his right hand behind his back and his left hand holding the sword in front of him.
"Um!"
Reina nodded sharply and said, "I'm ready!"
Before she finished speaking, the Demon King's sword had already reached her head.
"Remember, the enemy will not wait for you to be ready before attacking. You must be ready at any time." The Demon King scolded.
"yes!"
"Come again!"
This time, as soon as the Demon King finished speaking, Reina held the sword and hit him, snap!
The Demon King blocked her sword with his backhand and knocked it away.
"Don't go head-to-head with people who are stronger than you."
"yes!"
Reina picked up the sword. Her self-confidence seemed to have been hit a lot, and she began to doubt her own strength.
Indeed, the previous competition with Kate had made her a little complacent, and the Demon King could see it at a glance. Complacency is the most fatal point, and it is worse than inferiority. At least that is what the Demon King thinks.
Moreover, the path she chose required going through countless setbacks and tempering her perseverance.
Because waiting for her ahead were countless monsters and powerful enemies.
"Come again!"
"too slow!"
"My breathing is messed up!"
"Come again!"
"yes!"
Reina always said that, without any complaints.
She wiped the sweat from her forehead, stood up panting, adjusted her breathing, and then sighed.
Suddenly, her whole aura changed, and the Demon King was startled for a moment. Suddenly, Reina used her wrist and rushed over with her sword.
Is it an illusion?
The Demon King was observing and swiping away with his sword. Just as the Demon King's sword touched her sword, her sword suddenly jumped up.
In the Demon King's eyes, it jumped up like a locust, and then the sword pointed at his head, and Reina jumped back suddenly.
What does she want to do?
The Demon King was a little confused, but in the next moment, he understood that there was Reina's weak magic power on the sword hilt, which suddenly exploded, and the wooden sword flew in one direction and kept spinning.
The direction it flew out was really strange, and Reina probably couldn't control it. It was this kind of sky-gazing trick that was the most difficult to guard against. The battle-experienced Demon King frowned and dodged sideways, but the wooden sword
Still brushed his hair.
He didn't expect that she would realize this usage on her own.
Although I have great ideas, I am still too naive.
Immediately afterwards, the Demon King swung his sword and rushed towards Reina. By the time Reina reacted, the Demon King's sword had already hit her on the head.
"You are going too far!"
While scolding, the Demon King hit Rena on the head like a wooden fish.
"It hurts, it hurts~"
Reina touched her head and shouted. She thought it would surprise her master, but unexpectedly she got beaten.
However, this did not make the Demon King expect that taking her by surprise is the key to victory for a military strategist. That's it. Let's take her away.
"Forget it, I barely pass you. Next, show me how far you have trained in magic control."
The Demon King handed her a leaf, and Reina took the leaf, then sat cross-legged on the ground, closed her eyes, and held the leaf in both hands.
A few seconds later, a leaf that looked like a ball of paper appeared in Reina's hand.
"That master, I can only do this."
Reina scratched her head and said.
Um……
It's hard to describe in one word. To be honest, the Demon King himself couldn't have made it look like this.
It can be considered a kind of progress.
"I can see you've practiced hard."
The Demon King praised.
Reina smiled, but soon showed a confused expression.
"Master, don't you think I need to work in the union?"
"No, we'll leave here tomorrow."
"Huh??" Reina was a little surprised, the news came too suddenly.
"Tomorrow? But I haven't prepared anything."
"So get ready today."
The devil said so.
"But……"
What did Reina want to say? Is this decision too sudden? Thinking of leaving here, she couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart. Her heart floated like a balloon, as if she was still wandering outside at dusk -
-disturbed.
…
The Sluo Empire exploded, and the news about the new hero suddenly spread throughout the country. At the same time, there was a big secret fight between the empire and the Adventurer's Guild to snatch the ownership of the hero. In the end, the king divided a large territory.
Only by giving it to the union did I gain ownership rights.
It is precisely because of this that the demon king's clone Lin Chad has a headache. They actually believe in the saint's words and believe that he is a brave man. If he performs unsatisfactory, the king may be furious, and the saint will also
It will be very troublesome.
In the solemn lobby, Lin Chad and Lilith stood upright, wearing imperial military uniforms with a star hanging on their chests.
"salute!"
A roar echoed in the lobby, and everyone held their heads high and showed their most energetic side.
The king walked in from the gate. It was different from what the devil had imagined. The king was not fat, but a little haggard. He was probably fifty years old. Except for the crown on his head, he did not wear any luxurious accessories. Instead, he wore
You have to make a clicking sound when walking like a knight.
When he passed by the Demon King, he glanced at him out of the corner of his eye.
This guy can also do magic.
The Demon King judged in his heart.
The king sat on the throne with his back straight and looked at his ministers below.
"No gift!"
He shouted, his voice was quite powerful and majestic.
Being a king is quite tiring, the devil thought to himself.
The king started to speak, probably about how the war was going to go and some arrangements for the next steps. The devil didn't listen carefully and quickly talked about them.
"My lord, I have objections to the matter of new heroes."
At this time, a noble-looking man stood up. He was wearing a formal dress and glasses, but his face was very unfriendly. I heard that he was some kind of council minister.
"go on."
said the king.
"Yes, with all due respect, I think more consideration should be given to the matter of heroes. The war is tense now, and the birth of heroes is indeed conducive to appeasing the people and improving morale. But what we need now is not a name, but substance.
The solution, I think the traditional brave..."
This man Balabala talked a lot, but the devil didn't listen carefully.
"He is from the armed faction, so he has opinions about brave men." At this time, a strong man next to the Demon King whispered to him.
The devil turned his head sideways. He was a two-meter-tall man with dark skin and three stars on his chest and hat.
"enough."
The king said, and the council minister immediately stopped talking.
Then the king glanced at the courtiers below.
"I know you have your doubts, which is understandable, and I will send them to the southern battlefield, General Andrew."
"exist!!"
The strong man standing next to the Demon King suddenly made a deafening sound. His voice was so loud that it almost shattered the lamp above his head.
"From today on, they are your direct subordinates, let them show off their talents to their heart's content."
