Chapter 1788 This Hero is Super Tough (I don’t know how Ronin Rise is)

Ixfolia, a world that has been completely occupied by the Demon King.

This is the destination that Isisida told Duanmu Huai.

Not only that, she also gave a special reminder.

"I think you must be wondering why we can only summon heroes instead of using our own power to destroy the Demon King. In fact, the reason is very simple, just like our gods can give abilities to heroes from other worlds and let them gain strength. There are also gods who bless the Demon King, which means that this is actually......"

"To put it bluntly, it's just a proxy war."

Duanmu Huai was not unfamiliar with this. It was obvious that the unified divine world was on the side of humans, and the gods on the other side were on the side of the demons. The two sides may have had a direct conflict before, or they may not have. But no matter what, the development of the matter to this point can be said to be a competition between the two sides' agents.

"Yes, that's right. I wanted to give you more help, but whenever I think about things in that world, my mind seems to be shrouded in fog and I can't predict anything. Although the demon king of the previous world had similar power, this time it is more serious."

Having said this, Isista's expression became more solemn.

"Moreover, if you defeat the hero and destroy the demon king of the world, you will receive the favor of the evil dimension. Not only the demon king, but even the monsters will become extremely powerful. It is far beyond the standards of your previous world. Even so, do you still want to go?"

"of course."

Duanmu Huai summoned 100 Night Guards this time, followed by Mary and Kurokawa Akane. Mary was mainly accompanying as a clerk, and Kurokawa Akane, as for her, did not have any duties like the others, so she was just sitting around doing nothing. So Duanmu Huai brought her over to experience this trip to the courtroom together.

After hearing Duanmu Huai's answer, Ishistar didn't say much, but nodded to the side, and then another red-haired goddess came out. Compared with Listarte who usually looked silly, this red-haired goddess looked very calm, even a little melancholy.

"This time, I will open the portal for everyone..."

"why?"

"Hey?"

"Why you? Not Listarte?"

Duanmu Huai stared at the red-haired goddess. Although she was more reliable than Listarte in every aspect, Duanmu Huai still wanted to ask for clarification. When she heard Duanmu Huai's question, the red-haired goddess hesitated for a moment and then lowered her head.

"Because... I was the one who was responsible for summoning the heroes to that world to destroy the Demon King, but I failed in the end..."

"Oh I got it."

The reason why she was chosen was because she was more familiar with the situation there. After all, she had once adventured in that world.

Although it was GAME OVER in the end.

The red-haired goddess seemed reluctant to mention the matter and quickly changed the subject.

"Although I left, I have been observing the situation in that world since then. It can be said that the situation has been very miserable since then. The entire continent has been ruled by the demon king's subordinates, and humans have become slaves, livestock... and even treated as playthings or food..."

Hearing this, Listarte looked at Duanmu Huai nervously, as if she was worried that he would get angry. However, to Listarte's surprise, Duanmu Huai seemed quite indifferent and calm, as if he had not heard anything. The blonde and black-haired girls beside him behaved completely differently. The former held a notebook and seemed to be recording what the red-haired goddess said. The latter reached out to cover her mouth, revealing a hint of uneasiness and nervousness.

"…This time, you will be transferred to a town called Garbano, which is basically a place that produces and exports docile slaves in large quantities, so the lives of local humans are relatively good… Even so, they are only able to avoid being used as playthings and food…"

Having said that, the red-haired goddess took a deep breath, looked at Duanmu Huai again and lowered her head.

"Perhaps I shouldn't say this, but it was because of my failure that all this happened. So... please, save that world."

"That is the duty of the Inquisition."

Duanmu Huai didn't care about the red-haired goddess' request.

"Open the door."

The red-haired goddess didn't say much and went to the side to prepare to open the door. Listarte took this opportunity to come to Duanmu Huai and whispered.

"You're very calm. I thought you would fly into a rage after learning what happened to those humans."

Duanmu Huai glanced at Listarte.

“Because I’ve seen a lot.”

"Have you seen it often?"

"That's right. Do you think humans will have a good ending after being ruled by aliens and demons? Will they just live a worse life and become slaves at worst? The reality is not that easy. They will be treated as playthings, slaves, food, or even targets for entertainment, or simply twisted and transformed into monsters without self. These are all things that will happen when humans are defeated by other races. Otherwise, why do you think the Inquisition wants to kill all non-human beings? It's because their existence itself poses a threat to humans. Even if they don't exist now, perhaps in a few hundred years, they will become the culprit that threatens human survival and skins them alive. Therefore, in order to prevent all this from happening, they must be killed completely. As long as they are exterminated, there is no need to worry about them causing any harm to humans in the future."

"………………………"

Listarte stood there in silence, staring blankly at Duanmu Huai, not knowing what to say. If she had heard Duanmu Huai say this before, Listarte would have thought that he was simply delusional or exaggerating.

but now…………

However, Duanmu Huai was obviously not in the mood to explain any more to Listarte. He turned around and looked at Kurokawa Akane next to him.

"Chiyin, this time you have to watch carefully and learn well to gain experience. Do you understand?"

"Ah, yes, I see."

Kurokawa Akane also nodded nervously. Although she had not been to that world yet, just what she heard from the red-haired goddess made her feel hard to imagine and accept.

However, what needs to be done must be done.

As the portal opened, the group crossed the portal and came to the world on the other side. This place was like a literal demon world.

The purple sky was filled with the wreckage of collapsed buildings, and the turbid air was so pungent that it made people feel extremely nauseous. Kurokawa Akane and Listarte both quickly reached out to cover their mouths and noses, and Mary also frowned slightly, but soon she focused her attention on the surrounding buildings.

"This is the starting town... Even in the game, there's no such terrible start."

"I think there are quite a few games where you open your eyes and start in ruins."

Duanmu Huai looked around and quickly locked onto his target.

"There's a sound ahead, let's go check it out."

After saying that, he led the others and walked forward along the street.

After turning the corner, Lisda saw a surprising scene—there was a park not far away, which was supposed to be a place for people in this city to relax and have fun. Now, this park is still used for leisure and entertainment, but the objects of their service have changed.

In the park, a group of beastmen with different looks were chatting and seemed to be having a good time. They were all holding chains in their hands, and at the other end of the chains were... naked humans!

The latter was lying on the ground with his hands and feet, looking just like a pet.

The same topic was discussed among the orcs.

"Alas, your pet is still so ugly."

"Better than your shabby bugs."

"By the way, have you guys fed them properly? They'll starve to death if they continue like this."

"If you're starving, just buy a new one. Hey, look over there?"

As the orcs were talking, they looked over here, and obviously saw Duanmu Huai and his party. This immediately startled Lisi Da Dai, who thought they would attack immediately. Unexpectedly, the orcs were not on guard, but instead greeted them curiously.

"Hey, who are you? Are you new here?"

"Is that the pet you just bought? It looks pretty good."

"Well……………"

Hearing the orcs' words, Listarte showed a subtle expression, and couldn't help turning her head to look at Duanmu Huai beside her, and the iron warriors behind him who were dressed in the same way...

Well, it certainly doesn't look like a human being at all.

However, Duanmu Huai obviously didn't intend to waste time talking to them, he just made a gesture.

"Kill them."

As Duanmu Huai finished his words, the steel warriors raised their guns and aimed forward.

What happened next was naturally a massacre.

The unarmed and defenseless orcs were no match for the Night Guards. After just one round of volleys, dozens of orcs gathered in the park were beaten into a pulp. Only the humans who were treated as pets were now holding their heads in their hands, huddled together in fear. They seemed to have completely lost their human consciousness. Even if the Night Guards walked over to pull them up, they would use their hands and feet to try to dodge, or wail for mercy.

"This is too much! How can they do this to humans?!"

Seeing this, Kurokawa Akane was also very angry, and Listarte nodded.

However, Duanmu Huai just glanced at them.

"Why not?"

"Hey?"

"Isn't that how we treat our pets? Some people raise their pets as their sons, while others treat them as sandbags. There are people who abuse their pets everywhere."

"That being said... But, but they are human beings, right?"

"Humans are also one of the species. If we enslave other species, we must also be prepared to be enslaved by other species."

At this point, Duanmuhuai changed the subject.

"Therefore, in order to prevent this from happening, the Inquisition must eliminate all species that may enslave humans."

Hearing this, Kurokawa Akane and Listarte both swallowed their saliva. They finally understood why Duanmu Huai was so calm. He was not simply angry because humans were enslaved. On the contrary, he recognized this fact and tried to eliminate its prerequisites. In other words, Duanmu Huai's slaughter of these aliens was not based on emotions, but a cold fact.

Just like humans will die of malnutrition if they don't eat meat, in Duanmu Huai's view, killing all the aliens that threaten human survival is also a natural and reasonable thing to do. This has nothing to do with justice and evil, right and wrong. This is just something that must be done, it's that simple.

He destroyed these orcs not because they were evil, but because they posed a threat to humans and therefore had to die.

Therefore, even if the orcs here are not the ones who enslave humans, but the ones who live in harmony with humans, there is no difference in Duanmu Huai's eyes.

Just like now.

Duanmu Huai turned his head and looked at the captain of the Dark Night Guard next to him.

"Search this city and kill all aliens without mercy."

Then, he gave orders as easily as if he were drinking afternoon tea.
