The Hero in Exile

"I'm sorry, I need to stay for a while. You can go back and rest, or go shopping. I need some time to prepare here."

"Then let's go first."

Roland looked at the objects around him and felt very hesitant. Lingyu didn't say much and told him that he should stay for a while longer.

"As a monarch, you shouldn't be so sentimental. Let the past be the past. Your people still need you."

For Roland he has done well in various capacities.

When he was a monarch, he was kind to the people and strict to the nobles. When he was a teammate of the heroes, he was loyal and did his job well. When he became a father, he also gave a lot of love to his children.

He is a perfect man in every way, and Moran doesn't want to see him fall into endless sadness.

Roland, who was originally depressed, raised his head with some disbelief in his eyes.

The sadness also feels a lot less.

"As expected, only you can say this. No, you are not as ruthless as you were then."

Moran expressed some doubts. He was sure that he had never met the Elf King, but had only heard of his name.

"Ah, I'm old and confused. I just thought you looked a lot like someone from the past and you just pretended I didn't say anything."

Seeing what was said, Lingyu and Moran decided not to stay any longer and headed towards the exit, leaving Roland to calm down on his own.

The moment Moran turned his back, Roland's originally sad eyes took on a hint of depth.

Look towards where Fang Yuan disappeared.

"It's just as Yggdrasil predicted, man."

……

"Moran, do you want to go shopping with me?"

It's been a long time since I last dated.

Moran's face showed embarrassment.

"Sorry Lingyu, I have to go to the mural. There's always a voice in my heart urging me to go see it."

"It's okay, I'll wait for you while we eat."

"Well I'll be there on time."

Lingyu expressed her understanding. Since he wasn't fooling around, he must have his reasons for doing what he did. As his girlfriend, she should be more understanding.

Lingyu went back to the hall and found a sentry to take her around.

With Roland's instructions and the blessing of his brave identity, the other party was also polite.

……

Come to the mural which records the story of the first war.

Moran's thoughts returned to what Roland had said in that room about the origin of this world.

Originally, this world was without holy light and demons, but after a long time, humans and other races appeared, and this land began to prosper.

The demons and the holy light forces came here at the same time.

The place where the demons live is not suitable for survival and they want to occupy it, while the God of Light wants more believers to provide him with faith.

The God of Light was still very weak at that time, let alone compared with the first generation Demon King, he couldn't even come to this world directly.

For the safety of the world, the World Tree and the God of Light work together to find and summon talented people, who are the heroes.

The story that follows is well known. The brave team repelled the demons and drove them back to hell, and killed the Demon King. The God of Light also gained many believers and became the largest church.

Roland also mentioned that they are actually outsiders to this world, but with different purposes.

But in the past, light and darkness could check and balance each other, but now light has illuminated most of the world, which is not a good thing.

My thoughts returned to the present, and I could see the final battle between the brave team and the demon king on the mural before my eyes without realizing it.

The weapon of the Demon King is the Demon Sword that has been inherited to the present day.

There was a kind of magical power in the mural that attracted Moran, and as soon as he followed his intuition and touched it with his fingers, an illusion appeared before his eyes.

He was holding a magic sword, and in front of him was Fang Yuan. Behind him were the young Roland, a paladin who looked somewhat similar to Bourne, and several other team members.

In just a blink of an eye, Moran was pulled back again, and the previous attraction of the wall disappeared.

"Did I see that battle?"

Moran touched it again and again, but he could not recover to his previous state, and no hallucinations appeared.

Unwilling to give up, Moran looked at the previous texts.

But I still couldn't understand anything, so I gave up the idea.

In the exclusive space where Moran did not notice the magic sword.

The magic sword suddenly emitted a strong demonic aura, and unlike before, it was black, representing death and hypocrisy.
