The hero I support will definitely defeat the devil

"What era is it now?"

The fairy of light mustered up a little courage and asked the huge face outside.

She felt a little confused, as if a long, long time had passed since her time.

"Era? I'm not sure either."

Not to mention Lisha, I guess many people have no idea about the era they live in.

At most, you can just remember the calendar of your country.

An era is when a period of hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of years is divided into several parts and given a recognized name.

As for the era, generally only historians among human beings would study it.

"But I am an ordinary villager from the Patra Empire, an ancient empire that has existed for more than 1,500 years. Have you heard of it?"

Lisha thought about it for a moment and decided to ask the Fairy of Light if she knew about the Patera Empire.

"Patra, I know, it's you who has never drunk the blood of monsters and has no animal characteristics."

The words of the Fairy of Light surprised both Lisha and Yuzawa.

Because the story of the light fairy is so ancient, it is a story that only existed tens of thousands of years ago or even earlier.

The Patras are people who hid underground because of the invasion of monsters.

The Anderts are people who drink the blood of monsters in order to gain the power to kill them.

The former are the current humans, and the latter are the current orcs.

If the memory of the Fairy of Light stayed in such an ancient era, then perhaps she would know many ancient secrets.

"Lisha, let me ask her."

Yuzawa said to Lisha.

"okay."

Lisha activated the fusion without hesitation.

She felt that You Ze might be able to ask more useful questions than her random questions.

And just as Youze emerged to the surface, a puzzled look appeared on the face of the Fairy of Light.

"Hello, I'm Youze."

Youze had no intention of hiding anything, because he felt that the ancient fairy in front of him should be able to see the difference between him and Lisha, so he didn't want to hide his thoughts.

"Yuze? Lixia? Two consciousnesses?"

The Fairy of Light didn't seem to be surprised by this.

“That’s right. Lisha and I are staying in the same body for now. I have something to ask you, so I came out.”

Youze nodded.

"What do you want to know?"

Hikari asked, tilting her head.

"In your time, was there a demon king?"

"Yes, Demon King. It's terrible. Many of my companions died."

Hikari said as she shivered.

Just the mention of the Demon King made the fairy of light tremble, which shows that the horror of the Demon King is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people on the continent of Endrol.

Even many adults will use words like "If you don't obey, the devil will send monsters to capture you and eat you" when scaring children.

"What about the hero?"

You Ze continued to ask.

"Hero? Who?"

Hikari seems to have no idea what a hero is.

"So how did you resist the demon king?"

You Ze continued to ask.

He already knew from the words of the Fairy of Light that she should be an ancient being that was sealed in a bottle twelve thousand years ago, otherwise she would not be unaware of the existence of the hero.

After all, the first generation hero was the one who defeated the Demon King head-on in the true sense of the word. He was a hero who brought hope and light.

"I do not know."

Hikari didn't seem to remember and just shook her head.

She seemed to be wondering why she didn't remember these things.

"So...."

Youze asked a dozen questions in succession, and Hikari answered them one by one.

But the final results were not satisfactory.

Because Hikari didn't know most of the questions, either she really didn't know or she had forgotten.

There are only three questions that can really be answered.

"It's my turn, it's my turn!"

Lisha said as she exchanged consciousness with Yuze who was deep in thought, she picked up the glass and said with a smile.

"Hikari, do you think I can defeat the Demon King?"

"Are you the hero of this era?"

When Youze was asking questions just now, Hikari also asked Youze some questions. She had a general understanding of the current era and also knew what kind of existence a hero is.

"Hehe~ That's right!~ I am the hero of this era, destined to defeat the Demon King!~~"

Lisha said to Hikari with a proud look on her face.

"Incomprehensible."

Hikari didn't look down on Lisha, she just couldn't understand why a Patras person thought she could defeat the Demon King? Just because she was a so-called hero?

"Because the hero is..."

Lisha explained to Hikari the origin of the heroes and the great achievements of the heroes of all generations.

At this time, Youze was thinking about what Hikari said.

You Ze asked many questions, but only three of them received specific answers.

And each of these three is critical.

The three questions that Youze got specific answers to were:

Were there monsters in your time?

Are there gods in your time?

Why are you in this bottle?

Hikari's answer to the first question was yes, and there were many, and they were not limited to the White Tower area mentioned by Youze. She also revealed a very surprising secret, that is, all monsters were born from the power of the Demon King, and these monsters also dispersed the power of the Demon King. If the Demon King is killed, he will be resurrected in the crowd of monsters, and the more monsters he kills, the stronger he will be. But if you ignore the monsters, the weak will not be able to resist the impact of the torrent of monsters.

The answer given by Hikari to the second question is no. She didn't even know what gods were. It was only after Yuze explained to Hikari that she knew why gods existed. In Hikari's era, gods did not exist, but there were legends. And these legends were the main force against the devil.

The answer given by Hikari to the third question was that someone sealed her in this bottle in order to protect her, but she didn't remember who that person was. She just vaguely felt that she had a good relationship with that person.

From Hikari's answer, it can be seen that the era in which Hikari lived was definitely extremely ancient, and it might even be older than the era in which the Lord of the Secret Realm lived.

Because Hikari didn't say the exact time when the Demon King would awaken, but from the side of Hikari's words, it can be heard that the interval in between is definitely much shorter and more uncertain than it is now. After all, the Demon King now awakens once every thousand years, and the appearance of the hero are all the effects caused by the ritual used by the Lord of the Secret Realm and her companions.

You Ze had a feeling that if he knew the origin of the Demon King, he might be able to kill him completely. However, this may have been buried in the long history that no one knew about.

However, through a series of speculations and divergent thinking, You Ze discovered something very strange.

Chapter 166: The Way of Career

“Lisha, why does killing monsters increase the adventurer’s strength?”

Yuzawa asked Lisha who was chatting with Hikari.

"Hey?"

Lisha was stunned.

why?

"Even if you ask me why, Youze, I can still get promoted."

Lisha didn’t know how to answer.

Just like Lisha couldn’t answer why one plus one equals two.

Because that's common sense.

It is common knowledge among professionals that killing monsters can improve one's strength.

Killing monsters at any level can improve your strength, but you need to kill monsters of the same level to get the improvement. And there is one thing you need to remember, that is, you cannot break through by killing monsters. You can only slowly improve to the peak of your current level. Breakthrough still needs to be achieved through meditation or breathing.

Because this kind of improvement is like pouring water into a container. If the container is full, no matter how much water you pour in, it will only overflow and dissipate. Only by breaking through yourself can you expand the container and continue to pour water into it.

This is also the reason why many adventurers like taking risks, like to defeat monsters, hate practicing but still have considerable strength.

Of course, this is essentially no different from cultivation, both are self-improvement. Even professionals who kill more monsters will have more combat experience than professionals who only focus on cultivation.

At first, You Ze didn't find this strange.

After all, there are professionals in this world, so there seems to be nothing wrong with killing monsters to gain experience.

This is why he always thinks that the system is of little use. Lisha did obtain a super rare profession and could kill monsters to level up, but in Endrol, anyone who is a professional can do this.

If Youze hadn't discovered later that Lixia had no bottleneck in promotion except for the two major ceremonies, he might have always thought that this half of the system was completely useless, just a display, and a half-broken display at that.

But now it seems that it is a very outrageous thing for professionals to absorb the power of monsters to improve their strength.

At least in the world of swords and magic, there won’t be such a game-like setting. It feels more like a setting in a fantasy role-playing game.

You Ze even began to wonder if he had traveled to a game world.

And at this moment, Youze suddenly heard Hikari say.

"Brave man, so awesome. It's a pity there were no brave men in my time."

Hikari's words suddenly woke Youze up.

The Lord of the Secret Realm said that there were no heroes in her time, and that heroes were miracles born under the guidance of her and her companions. In other words, there were no heroes at that time.

If heroes can be created, what about professionals?

"Lisha, please ask for me."

Yuze spoke in Lisha’s mind.

"Did Hikari live in that era and there were professionals?"

"Hey?"

Lisha was stunned for a moment, but still asked Hikari according to Yuze's words.

"Professional? No."

Hikari shook her head.

"How can there be none?! Isn't legend just..."

Lisha suddenly stopped talking in the middle of her words.

A legend is a legend, but it is not necessarily a legendary level one.

"It turns out that professionals have always existed, haven't they?"

Yuze's thoughts were confirmed by Hikari's answer.

Professionals did not always exist; they were created.

So who is most likely to have created it?

Of course it’s the first generation of heroes.
