I don't want to be a heroic spirit

The whole place was silent.

Even Nero himself was stunned.

Sorry, [Phoenix Feather] can't handle this, so let's leave it to [Nero].

Then, Nero raised the corners of his mouth slightly and folded his hands across his chest.

"Hmm! Another person who fell for me because of my charm? Hmm, hmm! I can understand. If we talk about the most charming person in the world, if we talk about the most talented person in the world, then it must be me!"

"You have good taste!"

As if performing in a theater filled with hundreds of millions of spectators, Nero's voice became high-pitched.

At this time, Nero touched his chin again and frowned.

"But, uh, uh... my crush... this is really giving me a headache."

"Because! As an emperor, I am very philanthropic. I deeply love all the beautiful things in this world... Of course, I am the most beautiful being in the world, so of course I also deeply love myself, um!"

"so……"

Nero walked up to the throne and ruffled Levi's hair.

Ignoring the surprised and indignant looks of the nobles around him, Nero looked directly into Levi's eyes and smiled slightly.

"If you want to gain my approval, then work hard first... Strive to hone your soul to be more dazzling and more beautiful."

Nero does not plan to marry anyone, and she has no plans to look for a partner at the moment. After all, she is still traveling... Even if she really wants to find one, she will only look for beautiful girls.

Nero didn't take Levi's words seriously. After all, how old was a child? How could he understand so much about love?

In Nero's view, the feelings that Levi had for him were not love for a partner, but admiration for a hero.

When he grows up and becomes mature, he should be able to see this feeling clearly.

So... just leave everything to time.

Chapter 350: Salute Yu’s arrival!

The night is as cold as water.

There is a light rain outside the window, which does not have much impact on people's lives, but it can make the night scene more romantic.

In the ancient capital of Belze, Nero returned to the room prepared for him by Alice and the others. He was sitting on the bed, observing his adventurer card.

Then, he leaned back slightly and fell onto the bed.

"Huh...finally level 20."

Nero narrowed his eyes and muttered to himself, "That golden dragon gave me something really good. If it were in the game, it would definitely be a paid item, right?"

Defeating the golden dragon and defeating so many monsters allowed Nero and the others to gain a lot of experience points. For example, Kazuma and the others were at least leveled up, and Kazuma was even leveled up four levels.

Nero was the only one who couldn't gain a level even with the experience points gained from defeating the Golden Dragon, even though her level was lower than Kazuma's.

However, there is still hope.

Materials dropped by golden dragons can be used to make upgraded potions.

As the name suggests, it is a magic potion that can help people level up.

It will allow you to level up no matter how much experience points you need to level up.

Remember, after obtaining the upgrade potion, Darkness suggested that we wait until our level is higher and the experience points required for upgrading are higher before using this potion.

Nero drank the potion without thinking too much... She now found it difficult to level up.

"I can feel that all my abilities are getting stronger... Although the changes aren't obvious, they're definitely getting stronger. I wonder if this change will persist after I switch to another Heroic Spirit's Spirit Base."

Looking at the ceiling and feeling the soft bed, Nero was a little dazed.

"Hmm...it's time to set off again."

"I've been in this world for quite some time now. It's a very interesting world..."

Just like the name says... "KonoSuba: God's Blessing on This Wonderful World!"

"but!"

Suddenly standing up from the bed, Nero raised his hand very energetically, with stars in his eyes.

"We've decided this a long time ago... Let's settle it before we leave!"

Late at night, the sky is dotted with stars.

Nero left without being noticed by anyone.

Rushing towards the direction of the Demon King's Castle.

…………

To get to the Demon King's Castle, you must pass through a forest filled with high-level monsters.

It's understandable. If this is a role-playing game, then the Demon King's Castle should be the place of the final battle, and the monsters closer to the Demon King's Castle should be stronger.

The brave man embarked on a journey to defeat the Demon King, met many trustworthy companions, overcame many obstacles, defeated many enemies, and finally arrived at the gate of the Demon King's castle...

"This kind of orthodox plot really doesn't suit me, um!"

Nero got down from a griffin and reached out to touch its head, while the griffin also stretched its neck and rubbed Nero's face affectionately.

This is what Nero encountered in this forest. It seemed that she had said not long ago that she wanted to try to experience the feeling of flying freely in the sky on a griffin... She didn't expect it to come true so soon.

Relying on the [Riding] and [Animal Talking] skills, Nero quickly gained the favor of the griffin and asked it to give him a ride.

"Alright, alright, let's go back quickly... I have to walk the rest of the way alone."

Finally, Nero stroked the other's fur, which felt so good, and patted the griffin's neck as a goodbye.

The griffin raised its head and let out a loud cry. Then it looked at Nero reluctantly and flew away.

Watching the griffin fly into the clouds, Nero turned around.

At this moment, she was standing on the hillside.

From this angle, you can clearly see the hideous black castle.

It's as if they won't give up until they let people know that "the final big boss is right here", which is a bit too ostentatious.

If Huihui were here, she would definitely shout "So handsome" with shining eyes, right?

There is not a single guard around the Demon King's Castle, perhaps because the existence of the protective barrier gives them confidence.

Nero learned from Wiz and Vanir, who had served as officers in the Demon King's Army, that the barrier protecting the Demon King's Castle was created by someone known as the "strongest officer in the Demon King's Army."

The barrier can continuously absorb magic power from hell, making it almost impossible to destroy it by brute force. This cadre can use the magic power borrowed from hell. Relying on the endless magic power, this cadre has become the most powerful magician in the world.

Oh, by the way, this cadre seems to be an angel, a subordinate of God.

As expected, the gods in Su Qing are just a bunch of troublemakers! They can't even look after their own subordinates!

The nodes of the barrier are the eight cadres of the Demon King's army. As long as all eight cadres are killed, the barrier will collapse on its own. However, the angel cadres stay in the barrier and do not come out. At first glance, it seems very unsolvable.

But Nero still checked the barrier again, skeptical, and used the magic knowledge in his mind to try to find its flaws.

however……

"Impeccable..."

Sitting outside the barrier, Nero propped up his chin in frustration.

"Hmm! Although the barrier's strength has decreased due to the deaths of four... five officers, it still can't be broken by brute force. Even a hundred explosion spells won't help."

Because the loss of the barrier will be made up before the next explosion magic arrives.

According to Nero's calculations... if one more Demon King Army officer dies, the barrier will be strong enough to be cut open by the Sword of Light.

"But! Um! I don't have time to look for the Demon King's Army officers anymore!"

Patting his legs, Nero stood up and looked at the thin barrier wall with a confident smile on his face.

Backed by the boundless magic power from Hell, the barrier protecting the Demon King's Castle is extremely strong, and it is almost impossible to penetrate this barrier.

however……

"I am the Roman Emperor! Nero Claudius! Nothing is impossible for me!"

Nero raised the black and red sword high and said in a deep voice.

"If your barrier is 'Invincible', then I will have no choice but to use 'Invincible Penetration' to counter it!"

In an instant, the green wind wrapped around the black and red sword named Primordial Fire.

The wind transformed from magic power became more and more violent and more and more condensed.

Suddenly, the green wind turned into a pitch-black light.

As filthy as flowing black mud, the light that symbolizes hope was completely reversed, resulting in a dark light filled with despair and destruction.

This ominous color and the aura of destruction make it hard to tell who is the Demon King's army at first glance...

【Magic Release (Reverse Scale)】

The dark light, the tyrannical light, was like a gluttonous dragon with endless greed, constantly devouring Nero's magic power to strengthen itself.

The commotion here must have attracted the attention of the Demon King's army...

As it became increasingly difficult to maintain this dark pillar of light, the smile on Nero's face became as hideous as a devil's.

"Then... let this strike serve as a salute to announce my arrival!"

There was a commotion at the city gate. After Nero noticed it, he exerted force with both hands and slashed down the black and red sword condensed by magic power.

"Take my move—Sword of Promised Victory (Excalibur Morgan)!"

Of course, this is fake. Nero only used Hei Dai's magic power. She did not have either the Holy Sword or the Reversed Holy Sword. [Emperor's Privilege] could only obtain skills but not weapons.

But this doesn't stop her from shouting out and showing off!

Chapter 351 Based on Destiny, Deprive You of Your Wings

Devastating violence.

As hot as a dying star.

The dark aurora pillar swallowed up the light, and the radiant heat wave was like a roaring dragon.

As soon as the demon soldier pushed open the city gate, he saw that the city protection barrier that had never been broken was broken.

In a time so short that no one could react, the roaring aurora column descended with a roar.

The earth turned into scorched earth and the city gates were melted in an instant.

When Nero walked in from the gap in the barrier, he saw this apocalyptic scene.

Putting his hands over his eyes, Nero squinted and looked.

"Hmm... That's weird. I clearly heard a lot of monster noises just now... Where are they? Why can't I see any of them?"

Nonsense, the bodies were evaporated, of course you can't see them.

Stepping on the black and red scorched earth, the sultry air made Nero feel a little uncomfortable.

"Although the energy consumption is a bit high, the power is also very strong... Hmm! As a salute to announce Yu's arrival, this kind of movement is just right! Hmm!"

Nero nodded smugly, the corners of his mouth raised in a bright smile.

"Oh my! What a magnificent castle..."

Arriving in front of the destroyed city gate, Nero stroked his chin and said, "But since the door is gone, I don't need to knock on the door, right? Don't accuse me of being impolite."

"excuse me."

Raising his feet, Nero truly walked into the Demon King's Castle.

Just at this moment, a loud thunder fell from the sky.

The golden lightning that ran like an angry dragon instantly pierced through Nero's chest, and a dazzling light burst out behind Nero.

After being pierced, "Nero"'s figure shattered like a bubble, and not far away, another Nero appeared.

Her [Shrinking the Earth] skills are still as perfect as ever.

Raising his head, Nero saw the guy who attacked him.
