Chapter 17 Your Highness, please don't make a mistake
Before having breakfast with Lycorina, the church prepared a white and gold suit for him.
After he changed, he learned from the believers that the third hero was about to arrive, so breakfast would be delayed a little.
As for the fourth hero, he was still some distance away, so the two heroes who arrived first dined with the saintess.
Before the meal, the believers led Anyi to a certain hall.
From afar, he saw Lycorina on the Holy Throne.
Because it was the seat of the saint, it was called the Holy Throne, a large chair similar to a royal throne.
Lycorina's feet couldn't reach the ground when she sat down, which inevitably reminded people of her climbing onto the chair.
The original single seat has been increased to four.
Since they were among the other heroes selected for the same team as the Saintess, they were beings who could stand on equal footing with her.
Therefore, the four seats are arranged side by side in the order given in the task.
Since Lycorina, as the saintess, was to sit in the middle, the seating arrangement was changed to An'i, Lycorina, the Thorn Hero, and the Shield Hero.
An Yi didn't know why she had been brought here, but she sat down as they arranged.
At the same time, the voices of the believers reporting one by one were also heard.
"Four heroes have emerged in the Principality of Castermog and are currently on their way to meet."
"Ten heroes have emerged from seven territories in the Kingdom of Aquilos. Six of them intend to join forces, while the remaining four have set off separately in the direction where the demons are lurking."
"A hero was born in Matas Village, named the Dog Hero. He gained a dog's sense of smell, hearing, fangs, sight, and taste. He petitioned Her Highness the Saintess to have his hero status revoked because he had become interested in his family's excrement."
"His binge-eating ability allows him to show off ten buckets in one go."
An Yi silently added in her mind.
"The hero is chosen by the gods, and even the saintess cannot erase his abilities. Let him persevere and overcome his challenges."
Annie spoke softly as she walked past all the believers and sat down in the seat next to Lycorina.
The cultist who had just given the report looked at Lycorina, and Lycorina nodded in agreement with An'i's statement.
"Yes, Sword Hero." The follower bowed respectfully, then turned and left.
As soon as the other party left, the other believers continued to report.
Lycorina tilted her head slightly and asked An Yi in a low voice, "How do you know I can't erase the abilities of other heroes?"
She herself didn't know!
"I don't know, but now is the time to fight against the demons. Since the other party was chosen by the gods, he must have something extraordinary about him."
"If we erase his abilities, wouldn't that mean losing talent before even conquering the four demon races?" An Yisi replied in a low voice.
"I see." Lycorina suddenly realized.
I didn't expect there to be this consideration!
The Sword Warrior is indeed a talented and intelligent person.
However, Lycorina does not actually possess this ability; she is merely a rather unique hero who lacks the authority of an administrator.
After listening to the report for a while, An Yi was starting to get bored.
To be honest, what the other heroes are like is not important to them at all.
Because this is a "grid-based game" that allows heroes to develop freely.
The ultimate goal is to kill the Demon King, and everyone's objective is also to kill the Demon King.
Therefore, as long as the heroes advance into the Demon Realm normally, they will inevitably face the same "BOSS" together at some time and place.
However, the people of the Aldrich Cult haven't realized this yet. They still think that this saintly woman, who lacks common sense, is the emperor of the heroes, so they report everything to her.
"Ugh, what a waste of time..."
An Yi closed her eyes and sighed inwardly.
"Guys, I have an idea."
He opened his eyes, stood up, and interrupted the cultist who was giving the report.
The followers looked up at him, their faces full of confusion.
Lycorina was still diligently taking notes on the cultist's report, and she wondered what Anyi was trying to say.
"Instead of reporting in such an inefficient way, why not make a large map to mark the movements of the other heroes?"
If we use a map to mark it, it would be clear at a glance where any hero is selected, where heroes meet, where heroes move, and to what location.
As An Yi spoke, she gestured with her hands.
"If a large map contains too little information, it can be further subdivided into smaller maps for each region, which makes it much easier to browse."
Listening to your reports, word by word, has brought neither convenience to you nor ease to Her Highness. Therefore, go and use more efficient methods to provide information.
The believers looked at each other, seemingly still hesitant about whether to make the change.
"Do as the Sword Hero says." Lycorina wasn't stupid; she quickly made her decision.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Having received Lycorina's approval, the believers began to discuss among themselves.
"Efficiency...yes! This is so inefficient! Sword Hero is right!"
"Using a map is a great method! Thank you for the tip, Swordsman Hero!" (Zero)
"I'll go buy maps of all the different places right now!"
Soon, the believers got busy.
Some who were unsure whether to continue reporting went back and organized the information they wanted to report into concise notes for easy recording on the map.
Once most of the people had left, Lycorina turned to Any and said:
“Your method is excellent, but I don’t think listening to their reports is an easy task.”
Annie said she wasn't having an easy time, but actually she didn't feel anything was wrong.
Instead of the believers reporting in a noisy, chattering manner, they told her the information one by one.
Just listening to them talk meant nothing to Lycorina.
"Your Highness, please don't be mistaken."
I came here at your invitation to team up and fight the demons, not to sit here and listen to reports.
If you think that being a hero is just about listening to the movements of thousands of other heroes every day, then you can just sit here.
Even if I were alone, I would still use the power bestowed upon me by the gods to vanquish the demons.
An Yi spoke coldly, then slowly walked down from the high seat without looking back.
"咚咚-"
Lycorina's heart trembled violently a few times, and she opened her dazzling golden eyes wide.
The power bestowed by the gods... is for defeating the demons!
"Are you angry?" Lycorina jumped off her seat, caught up with An and grabbed his sleeve.
"Yes, I don't want to wait a moment longer to exterminate the demons."
"Coming to see you has already wasted my whole day," Annie said.
At this time in his previous life, he had already slaughtered hundreds of goblins.
"I'm sorry, I know I was wrong." Lycorina stared at him, her golden eyes full of sincerity.
Before An Yi could reply, a cultist hurried over from outside the hall and called out to the two of them: Six
"Your Highness, Sword Hero, the third hero has arrived!"
[Hero of the Thorns: Miluco Zinza] has arrived.
Chapter 18 The Hero Who Pierces...?
"What kind of person is the Hero of the Thorns?"
An Yi had this question in her mind.
In their previous life, the team centered around the "Holy Hero" was considered the most elite among all heroes.
Regardless of their abilities, the Holy Heroes are undoubtedly the most famous, with everyone knowing the original hero, Lycorina.
The Shield Hero is the strongest shield, standing at the forefront of all heroes in the Holy War to withstand the Demon King's attacks.
There is also the Hero of Slaughter, who is famous throughout all mankind and is known as the "Red-Haired Witch".
She used the number of demons she killed as a condition for leveling up, so she is one of the people who has killed the most demons in the world.
Finally……
The Hero of the Assassins...
……
An Yi really couldn't figure out what made this person famous.
It was as if this person's appearance was solely for the purpose of making up a four-person team.
Something like, "She plays a very important role because the game can't be played without her."
This reminded An Yi of a song lyric—
There's also Earth Tiger Warrior, who's going to summon the Earth Tiger Armor!
In short, let's meet them first and then talk about it.
Since he was one of the strongest members of the hero team in his previous life, there must be something extraordinary about him.
