I don't want to be a heroic spirit

The orange-haired man fell to the ground in a panic, turned around and shouted at the door: "You're going to kill me!"

However, he did not expect that the other party would not give him any face at all.

"Who told you to act cool, take on all the roles without saying a word, and then just disappear?"

Jian poked the floor with the butt of his staff, staring at the man with an oppressive gaze. "You were the one who wanted to die first, so even if I beat you to death, you won't have the right to say anything."

“Isn’t that unreasonable?!”

He scratched the back of his head, and the expression on his face made people feel that he was a coward and easy to bully.

The man's name is Romani Achiman. People who know him like to call him Roman. He also thinks the name Roman is very romantic so he gladly accepted it.

Anyone who plays FGO should know him. He is the head of the medical department of Chaldea. After the director Olga Marie fell into Chaldea, he became the acting director.

He has another identity, that is the Grand Caster, the king of ancient Israel, the King of Magic - Solomon.

In the final singularity, the Grand Temple of Time, Dr. Roman regained his power and died together with the Beast Goetia.

The omniscient and omnipotent king wished for an ordinary life, but he saw the destruction of the world just before he became ordinary. So he became a mortal and was deprived of all his freedom before he could feel the "happiness and fulfillment of being a human being" that he was not given in his life. He spent his whole life learning knowledge and studying technology, and he was on the verge of tears, running around in the darkness in a miserable state.

Then, after crossing all the singularities, he was unable to enjoy the hard-earned ordinariness.

The sentence "One person failed to return from the final singularity" must have caused a lot of FGO players to feel upset.

Jian glanced at Dr. Roman who slowly got up and sat on the bed, and spoke with some resentment.

"You're so relaxed, you just acted a bit cool and ran off. We finally dealt with the Renli Burning, but now we have to deal with the Renli Bleaching and the Beasts that keep popping up like mushrooms after rain. If I wasn't lucky, I would have reported to Ai Lei long ago, don't you know?"

"Ahahaha...it's no use telling me that."

Dr. Roman scratched his head, feeling that if he did this a few more times, he would eventually pull all his hair out. "I'm just an ordinary medical department director."

Then Jian gave him a look that said, "Do you think I believe it?"

Dr. Roman put his hand down and smiled slightly.

"You haven't been here for several years. I guess you've memorized a lot of stories over the years, right?"

"It's okay. I'm traveling with my friends again."

While answering Dr. Roman's words, Jian took out a plate of strawberry cake from somewhere and placed it on the table in front of Dr. Roman.

"With the elf named Fulilian?"

"Not only that, Fulilian also accepted an apprentice named Feilun, who is quite talented in the field of magic. There is also a warrior named Xiutalk, who is Aize's apprentice. Because Aize is too clumsy to take care of the child, he handed it over to us."

"Really... Then it seems like you're having a very interesting journey."

Jian raised his head silently and met Dr. Roman's gaze.

"Why do you think so?"

"Your expression tells me so."

Picking up the strawberry cake from the table, Dr. Roman scooped off a piece with a fork and put it in his mouth.

Then his expression became strange.

"……What's wrong?"

Jian's brows furrowed slightly, "Is it not to your taste?"

"No, it's quite the opposite."

Dr. Roman glanced at Jian and said in a deep voice, "This cake is so delicious, much better than other strawberry cakes. So I was thinking... after you leave, won't I have to wait for many years before I can have this again? As soon as I thought about it, the future suddenly felt bleak..."

"Whose future would be so bleak because of a piece of strawberry cake..."

"That's because you don't understand! To me, life is all about strawberry shortcake and magical girl Merry!"

"Yes, yes, I don't understand..."

The two of them kept having meaningless conversations like this, and occasionally there would be some bickering.

Basically, I just say whatever comes to my mind, but it is precisely this kind of conversation that makes people feel very relaxed.

Until Dr. Roman finished eating the cake and put the plate back on the table.

"Isn't it about time you leave?"

Dr. Roman suddenly mentioned this.

Jian didn't say anything, as if he agreed.

Dr. Roman smiled gently.

"Although I'd love to hear the new stories you've collected and what you've experienced over the years... but you probably have other things to do this time, right? Let's talk about it next time."

"...That's true. After all, business is more important."

With a smile on his lips, Jian stood up from the bed, and when he turned around, his hair floated slightly.

He turned his back to Dr. Roman and walked towards the door.

"Then I'll go and take care of those guys following behind."

"Be safe."

It didn't seem like a goodbye, as if Jian was not leaving but just going downstairs to throw away the trash.

With a "click" sound, the pure white door was opened.

However, Jian did not go directly outside, but stopped where he was.

Then, I heard her say something without turning her head.

"I'll get you back, doctor. Be prepared to work overtime."

After she finished speaking, she lifted her foot and walked out of the room.

Watching the figure of Jian slowly disappear in the pure white, Dr. Roman lowered his eyes slightly, and the words he spoke softly seemed to come from far away, carried by the breeze.

"Then I'll look forward to it..."

Finally, everything began to fall apart.

It was like ripples suddenly appeared in the lake, shattering the reflection on the lake surface, leaving only pure white emptiness under the fragments.

Chapter 457 Demon General.

The dream-inducing magic covers the entire Skol village. All creatures with intelligence, memory and the ability to dream will be affected by the magic and fall into dreams.

This is a very, very advanced magic. Even the great magician Fulilian who has lived for a thousand years is no exception. The best she can do is to retain her original memory in the dream, knowing that she is in a dream, but unable to escape from the dream.

However, within the range of the magic, there were three figures walking towards Skoll as if they were unaffected.

These three were obviously not human, as they all had long, monster-like horns on their heads.

They are monsters that have a similar appearance to humans, speak a similar language to humans, and behave like humans, that is, demons.

The war between humans and demons lasted for more than a thousand years. It was not until eighty years ago that the brave Sinmeier defeated the Demon King. The remaining demons temporarily went into hiding, and humans ushered in a brief peace.

After the death of the brave warrior Sinmeier, these demons began to move again.

For example, one of the Seven Sages, Aura [Guillotine], launched a war against humans not long ago and then died at the hands of Freellian.

"Are those two elves, Fulilian and Ash, still sleeping?"

The demon who said this was a slender male demon with a single horn on his forehead, two slender swords hanging from his waist, his raised collar covering half of his face, and his hands tucked into his sleeves.

"Yes, I have been 'watching' them. It seems that they are unable to escape from the dream and are still lying in bed."

The one who answered was the only woman among the three. She had her left hand on the sword at her waist and was wearing an eye patch.

"Whatever those things are, it doesn't matter! Can I kill everyone in that village? I heard that the elf named Ash is a magician, but her fighting skills are as good as any warrior. I can't wait to taste her blood."

The last demon was tall, with hair as red as if stained with blood, a bloodthirsty smile on his face, and one of the two horns on his head was broken off.

"Let's talk first."

The one-horned demon cast a sidelong glance at the two of them and said coldly, "If things get bad, I'll run away as fast as I can."

"It's really unfunny that a coward like you is called 'General' by humans like me."

The demon man with the broken horn glared at the other man with disdain and shouted, "Well, if anything goes wrong, just run away with your tail between your legs. I rarely come out once, so I won't leave until I've given him a good kill!"

"That boring title humans gave me means nothing to me. I just don't want to die."

The one-horned demon said calmly, "Neither the Demon King's orders nor the future of the Demon Clan have anything to do with me. As long as I can survive, I will do anything."

Demons don't have the emotions that humans should have, so they are basically absolutely selfish.

The demons fear death and worship power. The reason why the Seven Collapse Sages obey the words of the Demon King and the [Omniscient] Shulahad to a certain extent is because the Demon King and Shulahad are stronger than any of the Seven Collapse Sages and have the power to kill them.

The female demon never spoke a word. The quarrel between her two companions could not cause any ripples in her heart.

However, this calm was soon broken and a look of hesitation appeared on her face.

"Wait, someone's awake."

The tension in the conversation caused the other two demons to stop arguing and turn their gazes towards the female demon.

Female demons use a very special kind of magic, using which they can turn all non-living things into their own "eyes".

Before Fulilian and the others came to this village, she left her "eyes" in various places in the village to observe Fulilian and the others.

The purpose is to use the Dream Soul Festival to get rid of the sleeping Fulilian and others.

Whether they were demons or human magicians, they were all good at using magical perception. In order to avoid being discovered by Jian and the others, these demons deliberately kept a long distance from them, so far that it exceeded the range of magical perception.

It was precisely because they were too far away that they were unable to reach Fulilian and the others and kill them in the first place.

Unable to perceive magic, they can only observe Jian and others through the "eyes" of female demons.

"Who woke up?"

The unicorn asked with urgency in his tone.

The female demon immediately told them the information she observed.

"It's Jian, Jian is awake!"

With just one sentence, the air around the three of them turned cold.

The one-horned demons, who are more afraid of death, have already decided to retreat and are ready to run away at any time.

According to the information they learned, although Jian was not as old as Fulilian, he was a far more dangerous person than Fulilian!

At least, facing Fulilian, they still have a good chance of winning, but if they face Zhi... then it will be very dangerous even if they attack together.

Unlike the one-horned demon, the demon with a broken horn showed a belligerent smile.

Before the two could speak, the female demon's expression changed again.

"Wait a minute, Ash has disappeared from the room!"

The next moment, not only the female demon, but the facial expressions of the other two also changed suddenly.

It was simply because, in their magical perception, a rather terrifying magical reaction suddenly appeared!

"Surprisingly, you seem unaffected by the great magic that enveloped Skor?"

The white high heels tapped the ground lightly, and the long sleeves and cape were as white as angel wings.

The moment Jian appeared, the moment Jian opened his gray-blue eyes, the air around him seemed to turn into a heavy solid, making it difficult for the three demons to move and even breathe.

Unlike the nervous three demons opposite, although Jian had a cold expression, he seemed to be at ease and relaxed.

The so-called Dream Soul Festival of Skol is actually a very high-level magic. The fact that even the thousand-year-old magician Frillian was affected by it shows how powerful this magic is.

During the Dream Soul Festival, all sentient creatures that come close to Skor will be forced to dream, even the emotionless demons are no exception.

As far as Jian knows, the only being who is not affected by this magic so far is Graosam of Miracle, one of the Seven Sages of the Demon Race and the greatest demon who is proficient in mental magic.

However, Graosam died many years ago, killed by the sword of the brave Sinmer.

That's why Jian was surprised that the three demons in front of him seemed unaffected.

As for Fulilian's master, the great magician Celia... Zhi had not received any news that she could also resist the great magic that enveloped Skol.

Or maybe Celie has absolutely no interest in the magic here and has never been here.

Or maybe Celie had been here before and successfully ignored the magic here, but no one knew about it.
