Sure enough, I am not an elven clan that has inherited the artistic race. When I first saw this beautiful Elf King City, which is as beautiful as a scroll, I couldn't help but be slightly stunned. However, it was squeezed and heavy in my heart, but it started from the first moment I stepped here.

, has been weighing heavily on my heart. No matter how beautiful the scenery in front of me is, I am not in the mood to appreciate it.

"Please tell me, brother, please tell me that the elder of the Adventurers Alliance, Druid Wu Fan, please see Elder Leman."

Naturally, I would not be stupid enough to look for someone alone in the Elven King's City of Nuoda. I looked around and then gave a faint salute to the Elf soldiers on the side.

The elf soldiers were not ignorant. When they heard that the other party was an elder of the Adventurers Alliance, although they were a little confused about the other party's age, they did not dare to neglect. After informing the captain in charge of the teleportation array, they took the lead to lead the way.

Along the way, I met many adventurers. It is only three or four days since the Gamorro incident. These mercenaries rarely come to the Elf King City, and of course they do not want to leave so quickly. Even if they don’t like those elves, they

You should stay a few more days to gain more knowledge, so that you can go back and brag to those brothers who did not participate in this operation.

"It's Sir Fan."

"My lord is back."

The sudden encounter made these mercenaries overjoyed, and they gathered around one after another, passing the news to ten, and then to hundreds. After a while, hundreds of mercenaries gathered around, and all of a sudden, the elves were paying attention.

, wondering who on earth could make these human adventurers, who usually have their noses in the air, so enthusiastic.

"Everyone is fine."

Looking at the sincere and sincere smiling faces around me, I felt very happy, but the enthusiasm of these slick slickers made me a little puzzled.

What I didn't expect was that although Lucia returned frustrated due to the appearance of the little ghost, she still remembered to come to the Elf King City to send a message to other adventurers. Regarding the news of the death of those mercenaries and the biggest enemy this time, naturally

And someone's whereabouts.

Hearing that sixty or seventy brothers died, the remaining adventurers naturally booed. However, everyone here is not used to the separation of life and death, and has long been aware of death, so after a moment of silence for the dead brothers

, and this is how it was revealed.

When they heard that Lord Mortal fought against the enemy leader for his dead brother, although Lucia and the others were vague about the description of the battle in order to keep our blood bear transformation secret, these adventurers were not fools.

That day, two shocking energies collided. The time, direction and location just happened to match. Is it such a coincidence?

The adventurers already knew this. While they were shocked and admired by Master Fan's strength, they were even more moved. Although the meaning of what Lucia and the others said was unclear, they could also feel it based on their feelings.

When two forces clashed, life and death hung in the balance. One strong man, one with infinite potential and possibilities, might be able to surpass the strong men of Talashia in the future. The future is bright. And such a big man actually wanted to give something that was insignificant to him.

He wanted to take revenge on dozens of mercenaries, even at the risk of engaging in a life-and-death battle with a powerful enemy. How could other adventurers not be moved by this kind of love and determination?

Therefore, if they admired the alliance's prestige and my strength a few days ago and were willing to obey orders, then now, they have gained their true love. Even if I do not represent the Adventurers Alliance, even if I lose

With their own strength, they will not hesitate to go through fire and water for my order. This is the difference.

But now I don't feel the changes in the hearts of these adventurers, and the sincere admiration. Unknowingly, a large group of adventurers following my footsteps have gathered around me.

"Master Fan seems to be in a bad mood." Adventurer A whispered to the brother beside him.

"The steps are a bit heavy." His taciturn brother nodded coolly.

"Perhaps you are still feeling sad for those dozens of brothers." Adventurer B glanced at the center of the crowd with admiration on his face. He leaned forward and responded, and then the people around him started whispering to each other again.

"Okay, let's all disperse. It would be bad if the owners here mistakenly think that we want to destroy their nest." Seeing more and more adventurers around me, I forced a smile.

The adventurers around me suddenly snickered, but seeing the growing team and more and more elves watching around them, they probably felt that what I said was true. If I continue like this, there is no guarantee that these will be the same as the Stymons.

The vigilant long-eared people would not have any strange ideas, so after saying hello, everyone dispersed and continued their entertainment business.

Not long after, under the leadership of the elf soldier, I finally saw the treasure of the elf clan - the Crystal Tree. Then, under the arrangement of the soldier, I came to a semi-circular wooden house that was probably used to receive distinguished guests and sat down.

, someone else will inform Elder Lyman.

After a while, Lyman pushed the door open and sat across from me. After the soldier retreated, there was silence for a while, but the other person spoke first.

"Elder Fan, I knew you would definitely come." His smile was a little bitter, and no one would be happy to play such a role.

"Then Elder Leman, I think you should also know what I am here to do."

Holding back the resentment in my heart, I silently played with the cup in front of me, for fear that the coldness and violence in my eyes would frighten the poor old man. I am afraid that Lyman is not qualified to participate in this plan. I think,

Most likely it was the Great Elder, the Elf Queen, and...

"I know." The other party responded calmly.

"I know you have your own explanation, and it will be reasonable, but I can't help but come here and want to hear what kind of 'reasonable' explanation you will give!"

I finally couldn't help but raise my head, stared into Lyman's eyes, and said every word with anger.

"Why didn't you elves help at that time and allowed more than 60 brothers from our alliance to be killed!!"

The atmosphere in the room seemed to have condensed due to the anger released in my heart. Facing my aggressive questions, Lyman's expression did not change at all. He was silent for a while before speaking solemnly.

"Isn't this attack by the dwarves caused by Elder Fan? The elves suffered huge losses in this war. We did not hold Elder Fan accountable. It would be too much for Elder Fan to blame us first.

Alright."

"Okay, you're fine."

I laughed angrily. It turns out that Gamorro launched dwarves to attack the elves because of me. They also knew about it. Maybe some bastard was eavesdropping when they were arguing with Gamorro, but the more they became more and more

It was a tone and attitude of being under control, but it made me feel more and more angry. Are those brothers who sacrificed themselves in your "plan"?!

"Old man Lyman, don't give me those twisted thoughts. Although I, Wu Fan, are not as cunning as you, I am not stupid either. Although this attack was indeed caused by me. The elves did sacrifice many civilians and soldiers, but

, but you have benefited more from it. This attack can be said to be in line with the thoughts of you senior leaders. Don't think that I don't understand anything."

Lyman's unfathomable eyes met my blazing and angry gaze. The two eyes were facing each other. No one could suppress the other.

"Yes, it's true. Speaking of which, we elves should also thank you." After a while, Lyman, an old man, turned his head and broke the deadlock.

"I don't deserve your thanks. I just want to know why you didn't take action to save those six or so brothers!!" I continued.

With a tone that was full of gunpowder, he pressed the question word by word.

"You really want to know? In fact, in my opinion, it's better for you not to know."

Lyman sighed and stood up suddenly. Without waiting for me to ask, he moved to the window and silently looked at the brilliance of the Crystal Tree, the spiritual symbol of his clan, with his hands on his hands. Then he asked.

"Elder Fan, tell me, I have been with you for more than a month. Do I understand your character?"

Although I didn’t understand why Lyman changed the subject and asked such a question, I still endured my temper and nodded silently.

"I know your character, so I know you won't like the real answer. Even so, do you still want to know?"

"Indeed, the next answer may be unacceptable, but I will never allow myself, and those dead brothers, to be at your mercy as a chess piece. If you don't give me a satisfactory answer today,

The answer is, then don’t blame me for not showing mercy to you elves."

"The answer is yes, but you will definitely not be satisfied. You have to be mentally prepared." As if knowing that my determination has not changed, Lyman turned around, faced me with a solemn face, and then raised his old fingers.

, slowly but firmly pointed at me.

"The answer is simple, it's you!!"

"I?"

Crazy, the world is crazy, me? Oh my God! For some reason, I suddenly have the desire to laugh wildly.

"That's right, just for you."

Lyman put down his finger, his voice was sonorous and powerful, and his expression didn't look like he was joking.

"Okay, okay, it's for me, just take it as it is for me. Then I have to ask Elder Leman to explain, what on earth did those more than sixty brothers do for me, so that they were sacrificed as pawns by you?"

"Haven't you noticed yet?" Lyman said helplessly, shaking his head.

"After the battle with Gamorro, your strength should have improved."

My expression changed in vain. Indeed, during the battle in Gamorro, I realized my crazy heart and my strength has been greatly improved. I am afraid that even Kasha will not be able to show his true strength again.

They defeated me easily, but why did they know that my strength had improved? What does this have to do with the more than sixty dead brothers?

"I don't understand, Elder Leman, can you explain it to me? Do you mean to improve my strength? Why do you elves work so hard for our alliance? What does this have to do with those sixty brothers?

?My mind is completely confused, I hope you can sort it out for me."

"I don't know where to start with this. Come on, sit down first. Don't worry. Since you want to know the answer so much, I will tell you everything. Just don't blame me when the time comes."

Man sat down first and took a sip of tea to moisten his throat.

"This has to start with our great elder. You probably don't know that the great elder of our elven clan, Mr. Yalandlan, is also a great prophet. Speaking of which, you are the great human adventurer alliance in the first world.

Elder Akara. He was also taught by Great Elder Yalandlan."

I shook my head in shock. This was the first time I heard that Akara was actually half a disciple of the great elder of the Elf clan?

"Of course, I don't want to show off this, but I want to tell you the fact that Elder Yalandlan is proficient in prophecy."

I put aside my surprise and nodded for him to continue, but I already had a vague answer in my heart, an answer I was unwilling to accept.

"You must have discovered something in your heart. Yes, since Elder Yalandlan is proficient in prophecy, and this time, he predicted this battle. You must understand the fact that this dwarf attack is certainly against

This is an opportunity for us elves. But the most important thing is actually for you!"

"For me? I don't understand why you value me so much, and even if you want to improve my strength, you have to sacrifice more than sixty lives?" I felt like I was struck by lightning, and my mind went blank.

"Haha, Elder Fan. You really don't understand? In the history of mankind, who can have such strength as you at the age of more than 20 years old, and sit on the position of elder of the Adventurers League? Even back then,

Tarasha, who is a genius, has never had this honor. Now, you, and the Queen of our elves, are collectively known as the Continental Gemini among the top leaders of the entire continent. For those who don’t know this title, maybe

It’s just you.”

"No, this is impossible. Even so, there is no need to sacrifice those brothers. You still have the ability to save those people, and you still have the ability to let me fight Gamorro and increase my strength. Why?" At this time, I

The earth's brain is already in chaos.

"Is that really the case? If there weren't those people who died, would you be so crazy about killing Gamorro with your own hands? I'm afraid some accidents might happen, such as escaping or killing him when he is defeated.

Lead us to masters from the elves and the like..."

Although Lehmann's words are despising, I can't argue with them. Indeed, if I hadn't been so angry at the sacrifice of those brothers before and made myself swear a life-and-death oath with my opponent, I really can't guarantee that I wouldn't be as Lehmann said.

of doing that.

"Besides..." Lyman pressed his dry lips and continued.

"Prophecy is not as easy as you think. Even Elder Yalandlan, who is the first prophet in the entire continent, cannot guarantee that if he interferes with the things he predicted, even a little bit, he will

Will that change the entire outcome drastically, or even lead to your defeat? It is related to your life. We must not let the incident get out of control. No one can afford this risk, so we have no choice but to watch it.

I hope you can understand because of the sacrifice of more than sixty adventurers."

"Then you can tell me why you are so eager to improve my strength. You have also said that, right? My future achievements may be higher than Talasha. Even without this battle with Gamorro, my strength

Sooner or later it will improve."

When the truth of everything came to light, I understood Lyman's original intention of persuading me not to know the answer at the beginning. He was not doing it for perfunctory purposes, but was really doing it for my own good. This answer was indeed something I couldn't bear.

"How long will it take? We also know that Elder Fan has been working very hard to improve his strength, but there is a saying on the mainland that for geniuses, a life-and-death breakthrough is often more valuable than ten years of hard training.

The gains are even greater. Think about it for yourself. Without this battle, can you guarantee that you will be able to reach this level within ten years?"

I still can't argue. If an enemy like Gamorro hadn't appeared, and if I hadn't had the determination to fight him to the death, I might not have been able to understand my madness in 20 or 50 years, let alone 10 years.

"There is another reason. Maybe you can ask the Great Elder Yalandlan or Akara. I only know that the Great Elder often says that there is not much time left for us." After finishing speaking, Lyman said no.

When he spoke again, he looked at me quietly while drinking tea.

"I'm afraid there's a little more." I smiled numbly and said to Elder Leman.

"Old Galen, I'm afraid he is also in your great elder's calculations."

Connecting everything, everything has come to the surface. Why does Yalandan not dare to interfere with this battle at all? In addition to being afraid of disturbing the result and causing something unexpected to happen to me, there is also another thing, which is that he is afraid of the "destiny" of me and old man Galen.

"The encounter will be missed.

Thinking back to Galen's expression of understanding but helplessness when he met me, I thought that probably this old man had an agreement with these great elders, and if fate really allowed me to meet him, he would teach me something.

, this should also be a part of improving my strength, but I don’t know what unique skill Old Galen has that is worthy of these elders’ calculations.

"Does Akara also know these things?" I took a deep breath and asked the last question. In fact, this question is useless, really useless.

"What do you think? Without Akala's approval, we would never have taken the liberty of making fun of the lives of more than 60 alliance warriors. If we had to say it, the prophecy was the business of the Great Elder Yalandlan. But this

This plan is still led by your alliance."

"So that's it, I understand." In an instant, I seemed to have lost all my strength. I lay down limply, my forehead weakly pressed against the table.

"Elder Lyman, can you leave first and let me calm down for a while? By the way, take away the surrounding soldiers as well."

Lyman cast a protective look, then quietly walked out of the door. The footsteps of nearby soldiers also left with him, walking farther and farther until they disappeared.

"ah--!!"

The unspeakable pain bursting out from anger, sorrow, and powerless feelings was vented at this moment with my roar. With a fierce sword strike, the thick wooden table in front of me was neatly split in half, and the fracture was like

mirror.

"Ahhhh——"

Like crazy, I kept waving my long sword, and the huge table was cut up again and again without mercy. Finally, it became hundreds of pieces of wood with sharp fractures. Then, the chairs and vases around me also became the object of my venting, and they were

They were chopped down one by one, and the whole room was in a mess as if it had been hit by a storm.

There is nothing wrong, no one is wrong, Akara is not wrong, and Yalandlan is not wrong. They made such a decision not for their own selfishness, but for the sake of the entire race and the entire continent.

Those dead soldiers were not wrong either. They worked hard to deliver information to us, but in the end they were ruthlessly abandoned.

But they were all wrong, and so was I, because we live in a wrong world, a cruel world, where everyone can't help themselves. Akala and the others took the overall situation into consideration and were forced to make ruthless decisions one after another. Those sacrifices

The brothers sacrificed themselves for the sake of the overall situation, and they did not do so voluntarily.

But I must be forced to bear the burden of these lives and shoulder their responsibilities.

But, who can tell me why it is me? I am just a otaku who dreams of eating and waiting to die, then marrying a good wife and spending his life peacefully and decadently. Why do you push me to the top again and again? Me

I can't bear it. I'm just an ordinary person, a mortal with no ambitions. My tiny soul really can't bear the burden of more than sixty lives!

Who should I hate, who should I blame? My heart is full of frustration, but I can't find the damn object to vent to. No one is wrong. The existence of this world is itself a mistake.

"Crack—boom—"

The last sword finally made the whole wooden house that was already swaying and collapsing let out a final cry, and collapsed to the ground. The dust fell away. Apart from the thick pieces of broken wood, I was the only one left on the ground holding the sword in a daze.

standing in the middle of the ruins.

Let's go.

I don't know how long it took, but I gently put away the sword, turned around and left.

"Master Fan, are you leaving?"

When I met an adventurer on the road and saw my hurried steps, I couldn't help but ask.

"Well, don't stay here and have fun. Call the other brothers and go back together." I said in a calm voice. Anyone could see that I was in a very bad mood now.

Although several adventurers found it strange, what surprised me was that they did not ask me why, but looked at each other, nodded, and left in a hurry. When I arrived at the teleportation station, five people had gathered behind me.

The six hundred adventurers, although maybe not all of them here, account for nine out of ten.

"The closest teleportation station to Kurast."

Seeing the huge group of adventurers behind them, the soldiers and mages at the Royal City teleportation station panicked. After hearing what I said, they ignored my bad tone and quickly opened the teleportation station to send us "plague gods" away.

Crystal tree.

"I said from the beginning, this is not a good plan." Artoria looked at the window silently with a straight face.

"Why--"

Arlandran looked at Artoria and sighed inaudibly.

Although God has mercy on the entire Dark Continent, two geniuses who have not been born for ten thousand years actually appeared in the same era. However, this pair of twins also has many problems. One is too soft-hearted and kind, and it is simply not like being in this cruel world.

The other one is the same as the one who grew up in, and the other one is stubborn and abiding by the rules, with a stubborn temper that even a dragon can't control. If you are a knight, this may be an advantage, but for a king, it seems more than strong.
