Zhu Tian: Starting from the Stand User

Chapter 227 Teammates
"Since you are our most important guest, I will give you some advice about your future." After receiving the money, Banir smiled with satisfaction.

"I will defeat the Demon King, right?"

Barnil replied cautiously, "It's difficult for us to glimpse into this future, which involves the fate of the entire world. However, the outcome we see here should be what you expect."

So he actually saw it, but he just didn't want to say it before Lu Chen paid.

"Thank you very much. If I come across an interesting world in the future, I will definitely call you."

"In that case, I look forward to those interesting worlds."

"You won't be disappointed."

After saying goodbye to Vanir, Lu Chen returned to the guild. Next, he took Chris to the Demon King's Castle.

Yu Jian, who was supposed to be at the front line, actually appeared here. He seemed to be waiting for someone.

Yu Jian, carrying the magic sword Grammer, found Lu Chen who was preparing. Chris told Yu Jian the news. She hoped that the three of them could completely defeat the Demon King.

Yu Jian should be considered the strongest reincarnated person on the panel besides Lu Chen, so Chris believes that there is a high possibility that the Demon King will be defeated this time.

After seeing Lu Chen, he directly stated his purpose: "I heard that you are going to defeat the Demon King, so please take me with you. After this period of upgrades, I feel that I am capable of playing a role in the upcoming battle. I should be able to deal with ordinary Demon King cadres and will not cause you any trouble."

He wanted to repay Lu Chen for helping him find his sword. He was the Demon Sword Warrior and couldn't owe anyone a favor.

So he arranged his two useless teammates to go somewhere else, and came to Axel's guild to wait for Lu Chen's arrival.

However, Lu Chen dissuaded Yu Jian: "You don't have to follow me. This is a very dangerous mission."

The difficulty of this mission is just like my burning body. Chris and I should be enough. If there are more people, there will inevitably be sacrifices.

Mitsurugi feigned a casual response, "I was reincarnated into this world with a mission to defeat the Demon King, wasn't it? It's like a game. How could I possibly leave the team when it's time to fight the boss? This is my chance to become a hero."

"You may not become a hero, and you were already a hero when you took up the sword to fight the Demon King's army, so don't even think about going with me. Even if you do become a hero now, how many people will remember us a hundred years from now?"

The statues of those heroes will also be forgotten one day.

Edgeworth was a little confused by this, so he asked, "You're older than me, and it seems you've experienced more than I have. So, can we still be heroes if we don't defeat the Demon King?"

Even though they had experienced many battles, they were still relatively young when they crossed over. So he still needed to strengthen his heart.

So Lu Chen comforted him, saying, "Becoming a hero isn't important. We're all moving forward to fulfill the path in our hearts. At least believe that you're always on the path you believe in."

Mitsurugi truly made the decision to sacrifice his life before coming here, but that didn't mean he wasn't afraid. Awakened people overcome their fears, not that they are completely free of them.

He was just like the person who had fought against the President with him a long time ago. And those things seemed to have happened a long time ago. Lu Chen couldn't help but wonder if the people in those worlds were okay?
"So your goal is not to become a hero?" Yu Jian also had some questions about Lu Chen's purpose.

"No, my goal has never been to become a hero. I just want to challenge the strongest."

Yu Jian was a little confused about Lu Chen's idea. In his heart, Lu Chen should be the strongest human being.

"Your strength should be considered the strongest among humans, right? No one has ever been able to defeat two cadres in such a short time like you." "But that's not the strongest!"

Yu Jian stared into Lu Chen's eyes and asked seriously, "Will this mission be successful?"

"If I fail, the king will surely launch a general attack. So you can wait for that time."

Edgeworth smiled at first, then said firmly, "But if you succeed, won't I lose my chance to become a hero?"

Lu Chen did not refuse him again: "Then come with me and fight for a chance to become a hero. But you are already a hero. The moment you swing the sword not for yourself, you are already a hero."

Mitsurugi's expression grew resolute. "Of course I know this, but I still want to become the hero in everyone's eyes, the brave warrior chosen by Goddess Aqua to defeat the Demon King."

He also has his own persistence.

Therefore, Lu Chen finally agreed to Yu Jian's request. As he said, death is not the end here. And Barnil had said the result was good.

Before leaving with Lu Chen, however, Yu Jian presented an expensive ring to the goddess Aqua, but it completely disappeared under Aqua's playful magic.

I don’t know if Aqua is really stupid or if she saw something, but this way of rejection is very consistent with her personality.

No one would blame Aqua for doing something like this.

But Edgeworth didn't bother to argue any further. He had already put his life and everything else behind him. If he continued to pester the goddess, it would only tarnish his heroic image.

He is the man destined to be a hero, the most orthodox hero in the story.

So he will use his own glory to bring honor to the goddess.

At this moment, he felt very handsome in his heart.

Chris, who was standing next to Lu Chen, said to Yu Jian, "Maybe you'll lose your life if you go to the Demon King's Castle this time, so why don't you make your feelings clear?"

She believed that her predecessor definitely did not understand what Yu Jian meant.

"That's enough."

Lu Chen then bought some holy water from Aqua. Combined with the various things he brought with him, it should be enough to deal with the next situation.

Two days later, Kazuma and his team set out to serve as guards for Princess Alice, where they also had their own battles.

Lu Chen, Chris, and Yu Jian Ye Xiang walked towards the Demon King's Castle.

No one knows what they are going to do, but if they succeed, the world will usher in about a hundred years of peace.

There will definitely be new disputes in the future, and that will be the next brave man’s mission.
