Zongman, the journey begins from the wrong place

"Well!!"

The pain made the Emperor of Killing twist his lips and his heart tighten.

"boom--"

But the long sword continued to chop down, breaking the wooden roof like butter. The aftermath even shook and broke the beams, causing a large area of the roof to collapse.

Without the ground to stand on, Noah was forced to cancel his attack and retreat backwards.

By the time Noah stopped, more than half of the roof had collapsed, and the two were more than twenty meters apart.

Noah swung his sword to dissipate the remaining strength in his body and took a slow and deep breath.

But even so, his already pale cheeks became even more bloodless after the outburst.

In contrast, Valetta was covered in blood, with wounds of all sizes all over her body, turning her into a ferocious beast.

As the air fell silent, shouts were heard in the distance.

"Lord Valetta! Ah!!"

"Ah! Retreat!"

"It's Loki's Familia and Astraea!!"

Noah glanced over and saw that chaos had broken out on the street.

The members of the dark faction in black robes were causing chaos everywhere, but were suppressed one after another by the adventurers. If it weren't for the concern for civilians, the speed would have been even faster.

There was one blond figure in particular, who moved swiftly and lightly among the crowd, and cut down the enemies with a flick of his sword.

However, a golden light suddenly flashed in the corner of Noah's vision. The speed and direction seemed to be coming towards him?

"Boy, you're lucky! Next time! I'll definitely kill you!"

Without waiting for Noah to look again, Valetta on the opposite side turned around and jumped off the roof after saying some harsh words.

15 Reunion

Looking at the empty rooftops blown by the strong wind, Noah raised the sword in his hand and saw his own reflection on the blade that was still brand new and shiny after the fierce battle.

Valletta just said that he was lucky, and this was not a harsh remark made to save face before retreating.

Although in the previous battle, he seemed to have the upper hand and beat Valetta all over.

But Noah knew that, apart from the first sneak attack, most of the injuries he had actually caused to Valetta were insignificant.

For a level 5 adventurer, as long as the bones and organs are not damaged, it is just a flesh wound.

As long as the blood is not drained out, it's just a matter of a tube of panacea.

In fact, I have already exerted all my strength, and my body has not yet recovered, so I am destined not to be able to last long.

So after a long battle, I guess I can only retreat in the end.

unless……

Noah gently brushed his fingers across the cold sword blade, feeling the tremendous power contained within it.

Unless Noah is willing to use all his strength - that is, use magic.

At this moment, Noah's desire for 'favor' suddenly became stronger.

Whether in the previous world or the present world, magic is a very critical and magical force that can turn the tide of battle.

Noah also has his own magic, which is the key to his victory over the strong and defeating the devil.

But his magic seemed to be a punishment from heaven. The cost of using it was extremely high, and it would take three or four days to recover after using it even slightly.

In the last battle of the previous world, Noah had not yet used his full strength. At most, he only used half of it and felt that his body was about to collapse.

Noah thought about the world's understanding and explanation of "favor" - the so-called ability value is actually the "water" that the gods pour into the "vessel" of the human body.

When the water becomes full, it is necessary to sublimate the body as a "vessel" and make it bigger.

If the 'vessel' is not strong enough and is forced to bear the force, there is a risk of collapse.

Although Noah left the village at a very young age and wandered to survive, it only took him four or five years to truly learn how to fight and to have a decisive battle with the Demon King.

During these five years, Noah had little time to rest, let alone receive proper training. He could only keep pushing his limits in fighting.

It's nothing like the adventurers in this world, who can display all aspects of their physical condition in numerical form, and then conduct targeted training after identifying any deficiencies.

Noah felt that it was because he had not fully developed his body that he was unable to fully unleash the power of magic.

...Alas, in the legends of the two worlds, the saviors are always assisted by elves and fairies. Why is it that not only does I have no one to help me, but I don’t even have time for proper training?

If he received a 'favor', he would not only be able to perfect his physical development, but he would also be able to acquire some magic that he could use normally.

Not to mention, the adventurers in this world also have a unique ability called "skills" that are no less powerful than magic.

So, after all, I still need to find a clan to join.

When the sound of breaking wind came from beside him, Noah put down the sword, turned his head and met a pair of golden eyes.

Ok?

Isn’t this the little girl I rescued a few days ago?

"Hey, hello."

Ais forgot what she was supposed to say.

After Livilia 'fulfilled' her wish and she saw the person in front of her again, she ran over with all her might.

But when she got to the other side, Ai Si was speechless.

The intense running made my cheeks and breath extremely hot, my cheeks so hot that they seemed to be burning, and my mouth and throat were extremely dry.

The girl didn't know why she was like this, because this level of running was nothing.

But the heart was beating violently, and the "thump thump" sound echoed in the brain, leaving the consciousness blank.

This child, could it be that I didn’t protect him well enough and he got hit on the head and became stupid?

Seeing the blonde girl not saying anything but staring at him with her moist golden eyes, Noah couldn't help but murmur in his heart.

After all, he had never taken a child on the battlefield, and he was in a weak state at the time. If he didn't hold the little girl firmly, it was possible that the little girl's head would hit a stone somewhere.

Thinking of this, Noah's idea of joining Loki's clan began to waver again.

What if the other party is about to ask him for compensation? If he takes the initiative to go to them now, wouldn’t he be walking into a trap?

Why don’t you go find Freya’s family?

Through the records in the library, Noah learned that the two peaks of Orario today are the Freya clan and the Loki clan.

However, judging by public opinion, Freya's family doesn't seem to be very good. There is a lot of internal strife and they are not very focused on exploration.

For Noah, who had just suffered betrayal, internal strife was the most abominable thing.

However, when the lustrous, gem-like emerald hair appeared before and behind him, Noah knew that his entanglement and hesitation were no longer necessary.

Forget it, I shouldn't repay kindness with evil.

"Good afternoon."

Seeing the silver-haired boy, Livilia, like Ais, didn't know what to say.

The main thing is that she knows absolutely nothing about this person, so what can she talk about?

However, when her eyes swept over the huge collapse on the house in front of Noah, as well as the traces and bloodstains of fighting along the way, she suddenly recalled the roar she had just heard.

Noah Seifert?

Also, that seems to be the voice of the Emperor Killer, Valetta, right?

Hello, hey, hey, could it be that?

With a bit of disbelief, Livilia subconsciously glanced at Noah, but found that although he looked a little pale and his clothes were quite tattered, there was not a single wound on his body.

So, could those bloodstains be...

After deducing an answer that she herself found hard to believe, Livilia slightly widened her eyes.

"Um, were you fighting with a woman with light red hair just now?"

This time, Noah didn't remain silent like last time, but nodded.

"Oh? You mean Valetta? It's indeed that crazy woman. She's quite powerful."

Seeing Noah sheathing the silver sword with ease while casually talking about the 'Killer Emperor' who made the whole city tremble with fear, Livilia was speechless for a moment.

This young man, who looked about the same age as the girls from Astralia's clan, could actually make the 'Killer Emperor' suffer.

Are today's young people so capable?

I don’t know which clan he comes from?

Last time, because the other party obviously didn't want to contact her, Livilia didn't ask in detail out of politeness.

But this time, she felt that she had to take it seriously.

As the struggle between the Urban Alliance and the Dark Faction becomes increasingly fierce, the fighting power that can cause harm to the Killing Emperor cannot be ignored.

"Well, I think this incident was caused by the trouble you caused when you helped my child last time."

Livilia leaned forward to apologize with the perfect etiquette of the elven royal family, then opened her emerald eyes and stared at Noah.

"I wonder which Lord God's servant you are? Please tell me. Loki's family will come to apologize and express their gratitude."

16 Goddess (by) Loki

Noah glanced at Livilia and felt that she was definitely a reliable teammate.

He is gentle and reasonable to others, but he is not afraid to show his edge at critical moments and fight for the interests of his teammates.

If I had such a good teammate before, I wouldn’t have to work so hard.

It would be great if that 'brave' Finn really had such great leadership wisdom as the legend said. Then I could just throw away my brain and kill happily.

"I believe you have just heard my name, Noah Sipher. I am planning to visit the Loki clan. Your Lord God is here too, right? If it is convenient, could you please lead the way?"

Noah glanced to the side and saw that quite a lot of people had gathered under the house, including ordinary people and adventurers.

If possible, Noah didn't want to reveal here that he had not yet received grace.

It's easy to imagine that once the news that an 'ordinary person' defeated a 'level 5 killer emperor' leaks out, it will definitely cause an uproar.

Noah just wants to kill and fight, but he doesn't want to be looked at like a monkey.

"Eh? Well, okay then."

Livilia was a little surprised that Noah agreed to her request so quickly and took the initiative to visit her. After all, he had been so repulsive last time.

But this also saved her a lot of trouble, and she was happy to see it.

Before leaving, Noah noticed that the girls from the Astralia family were maintaining order and rescuing the wounded, and he couldn't help but take a few more glances at them.

At the same time, the masked blond elf in the crowd suddenly raised his head and met his gaze.

Two pairs of blue eyes looked at each other from a distance, as if they said something, but also seemed to say nothing.

After Noah turned and left, a human girl with short black hair walked over to the blonde elf.

"Ryu? What's wrong?"

"...I always feel like I've met someone I care about."

What's going on?

Why do I always feel that there is a sense of nostalgia and sigh in that person's eyes when he looks at me?

Noah turned around and left with Livilia and the silent Ais, heading towards the north of the city.

Along the way, the three of them didn't say a word.

Noah was thinking about how to convince the gods of Loki's family to let him, a man with a mysterious origin, join their family.

Livilia, who was leading the way, kept glancing at Noah from the corner of her eyes, trying to analyze some useful information from the expression on his face.

For example, why did they suddenly come to visit Loki's family? What was their purpose? Who were they?
