The Villain Knight Doesn't Want to Be a Hero

As if the sunlight irritated her eyes, the orange-haired girl whimpered subconsciously and opened her eyes reluctantly.

The blue sky and the shining hot sun indicated that she was no longer in the underworld but back on the surface.

But what attracted her attention more than all these was the girl in front of her with pink hair and a bright smile on her face.

“…Mashu…?”

"Well, good morning, senior."

The good morning greeting from the pink-haired girl quickly woke Ritsuka from his daze.

It was not until then that she realized that she and the other person were lying on the same bed... Judging from the surrounding environment, this seemed to be the "Chaldea Embassy" hotel where they had stayed before.

However, the various facilities there don’t look like they have experienced a series of wars.

——That’s natural.

After all, in order to provide her and Mashu with a place to rest, Lin Qiao deliberately went back in time to change the place from its original ruins back to the way it was when they first arrived.

Otherwise, as the last master of mankind, it would be too pitiful if he woke up and found that he could only sleep on the ground.

He stretched, got up from the bed, and walked downstairs with Mashu.

Unknown flowers bloom in cracked clay pots, adding a touch of color to the surroundings.

The lobby on the first floor was already full of people.

Ushiwakamaru, Leonidas, Benkei, Anna, Medusa, Ishtar, Leopard Man, Quetzalcoatl, Olga Marie.....

Everyone sat around a long wooden table, and everything was just like the night they first arrived in Uruk, even more lively.

Of course, there was a white figure holding a staff, who made Fu Fu feel uncomfortable just by looking at him.

"Hey, long time no see, Fujimaru, Mashu."

"skillful?"

"No! It's Merlin, the real, amiable big brother Merlin!"

Hearing what Ritsuka said, Merlin immediately grabbed a fishman who breathed with gills and slapped him in the face.

Actually at such a moment he was once again identified as an alien pirate who ruined his reputation... This was too much!

Facing Merlin's loud complaints, Reason and Ritsuka smiled helplessly.

"But why is Merlin here...?"

"Hehehe, it's surprising, right?"

With his hands on his hips, the tone of a certain half-human, half-nightmare guy became much more smug.

"Although I was tricked by a nasty guy pretending to be an older brother and had to temporarily withdraw, I hate the abrupt end of the story and the sad ending the most, so I slightly violated my creed and ran all the way from Avalon..."

"That being said, Merlin didn't do anything."

Anna's unhesitating sabotage froze the expression on the face of a certain candidate for the title.

But just as the other party said, by the time he had struggled to get from Avalon to Uruk, the battle was almost over.

During this time, an old man holding a big sword glanced at him with a look that said "what on earth are you doing here?"

In short, apart from clearing a wave of soldiers with Medusa and others guarding the surface, and killing a few Rahmu who fled because of the disappearance of Tiamat, he did not play any role - Olga Marie killed more people with her small spaceship than him.

"How...how can you say that? I work really hard, big brother!"

So Merlin blushed and argued quickly.

Then came a bunch of difficult to understand words, such as "crown", "alien" and "disconnection", which made everyone present laugh, and the hotel was filled with a happy atmosphere.

But overall, Mashu and Ritsuka were happy to see Merlin again.

"Speaking of which, what's the coincidence if Merlin is here?"

"He said he was going to pick up a package and would be back soon - who knows what he was doing?"

Ishtar curled her lips and said, this is Mesopotamia in 2600 BC, where did the express delivery come from?

Do you really think you live in the 21st century? Even if you are lying, you should be careful!

Of course, she certainly wouldn't dare say this to Lin Qiao herself.

This guy is really going to beat her...Blood Star Seven Wolves or something like that, it’s really scary just thinking about it.

"So what about Ereshkigal and the Underworld?"

Recalling the underworld that was previously eroded by Tiamat, Ritsuka couldn't help but ask.

"Her? Not bad...but that guy will probably be very busy from now on."

Ishtar spread her hands indifferently and answered.

Because of Lin Qiao's fatal flying kick that completely shattered Tiamat's body, the underworld was severely damaged. It would take at least a century to recover.

But overall it is not a big problem. At least the basic functions of the underworld have not been damaged.

As for the maintenance time...it's just a hundred years, which is just a nap for God.

Of course, for Ritsuka and the others, it was so long that it was almost a lifetime.

"By the way, Fujimaru, King Gilgamesh has been waiting for you for a long time."

Saying this, in a somewhat noisy atmosphere, the last Master of mankind, accompanied by several heroic spirits who protected human history, walked on the rubble-strewn streets towards the damaged divine tower.

Bid a final farewell to the Human King who existed as the "Wedge of Heaven" but betrayed his mission.

.....

At the same time that Li Xiang was chatting with a group of heroic spirits, Lin Qiao arrived outside the city of Uruk.

But contrary to what a certain Ishtarin guessed, he really went to pick up a package.

Right in front of Lin Qiao, Gaia and Alaya, whom she had met before, were standing there.

Between Lin Qiao and them, a gorgeous lance with a body that looked like it was made of countless metal strips was inserted into the ground.

——Its name is "Longominid".

It is not the Holy Lance, but the complete form of "Rongomyniad" including the Tower of the End and the Holy Lance.

"You two are surprisingly straightforward. You sent the stuff right after you dealt with Tiamat... I thought you two would be a little clever."

"There is no need for that, and keeping promises is a human virtue."

"..."

Lin Qiao did not respond to Alaya's words.

Is keeping promises a human virtue?

As a former human who has been in Cyberpunk 2077 for several years, how could he not know what kind of people are?

Besides, he himself is not a man who keeps his promises.

So it’s enough to just listen to this, but if you really believe it... I suggest you just wish yourself the best.

Chapter 658: The Warcraft Front, Ending

In general, if he hadn't scared the will of the planets in the entire solar system with his black hole cannon, these two guys would probably still have to use Ritsuka and the others' names to argue with him.

——In many senses, Lin Qiao's black hole cannon was not only used to clear out Rahm, but also to warn the two dishonest guys.

Of course, actually doing something and being able to do something are two completely different things, so there is not much to say about it.

Holding the handle of the gun, Lin Qiao easily pulled it out of the ground.

"With this, the transaction is complete."

Calm words came out of Alaya's mouth, and then he and Gaia's figures slowly disappeared from the spot.

For them, the purpose of this transaction has been achieved.

Although they were undoubtedly the weaker party throughout the whole process, on the other hand, thanks to this incident, they were able to win over a very powerful presence.

Not only do they no longer have to worry about the threat posed by the Planet Eaters, but with the presence of Chaldea and others like Fujimaru Ritsuka, they can even ask them to help save humanity and the Earth at critical moments.

——Overall, it’s not a loss.

After taking a meaningful look at the place where Gaia and Alaya disappeared, Lin Qiao shook his head and said nothing more.

He could roughly guess what those two guys were up to. Although he couldn't say he liked them, he wasn't too disgusted either... But if the other party wanted to get something for free or was deliberately doing something weird with him, that would be another matter!

He swung the holy spear in his hand slightly, and the sound of the air explosion caused by it cutting through the air was so terrifying that it made people's scalps tingle.

However, even though he could blow up an armored vehicle with a single blow, it was undeniable that he had no experience in using weapons such as lances.

Before you learn how to use it, at most you can think of it as a stick with a pointed tip to hit people with.

——In a sense, if he used the holy sword "Sword of Promised Victory", he would be able to use it more easily.

However, considering that the thing needs planetary assistance to exert its maximum power, but planets from other worlds cannot provide assistance, it was kicked away by him at the beginning.

Point the gun tip at the rock on one side...

Call ~

There was just a gust of cold wind and nothing happened.

"...I almost forgot again, I don't have any magic power..." Lin Qiao shook his head helplessly.

Well, without using the Holy Grail or other means, and without any magic power in his body, it seems that he can only use this thing to hit people.

——But of course, this is not really a big deal.

Taking out the Holy Grail, Lin Qiao raised the holy spear in his hand.

As magic power was input, the tree branches on the surface of the holy spear began to stretch out and emit dazzling golden light.

The next second, a pure white tower about 20 meters high rose from the ground and appeared in front of Lin Qiao.

This is part of the Tower of the End, Rhongomyniad... which maintains the physical laws on the surface of the world.

Although it is possible to summon the complete Tower of the End, it would be too troublesome.

And most importantly, Lin Qiao only needs this part.

but--

"It's harder to control than expected..."

Looking at the 20-meter-high white tower in front of him, Lin Qiao muttered in a low voice.

Originally, he just wanted to open an entrance that was just big enough for people to pass through and was no more than three or four meters wide, but he didn't expect that the final result would be so exaggerated.

To a certain extent, this is also a manifestation of the poor coordination between him and the Holy Spear...or the Holy Spear itself is also slacking off.

But let's put this matter aside for now.

A ball of blue gel-like genetic genes separated from Lin Qiao's body, and then, after mimicking his current appearance, strode into the tower.

"I hope my guess is correct..."

Muttering these words, Lin Qiao waved the holy spear in his hand and closed the door of the Tower of the End.

The approximately 20-meter-high white tower slowly dissipated into the air, and the Holy Spear was stored in his own storage space.

Then, Lin Qiao's body disappeared from the spot. When she reappeared, the surrounding scenery had switched to the top of the tower.

This is the highest point in the entire Uruk. In the past, if you stood here, you would be able to easily see the bustling city scenery.

But it's just like anywhere else in the city.

After enduring the baptism of the Chaos Tide and the battle with Lahmu, even the former center of Uruk has now become a sad sight.

So what is frustrating is that what we can see now is a dilapidated scene that is so badly damaged that it can almost be described as a ruin.

All that arose in my heart was a feeling of sadness.

When Lin Qiao teleported here, a blooming flower was inserted by Lixiang into the crack of the stand, and the petals that would wither one day but were extremely beautiful at the moment were swaying in the wind.

Gilgamesh combed his hair to look younger and put on a golden armor...

Honestly, apart from his worse temperament, this guy now looks exactly like Ben Linqiao when he had his elbow chopped off in the Fourth Holy Grail War.

As for Jin Gu, he didn't see it - perhaps he knew that he was not suitable for such an occasion, so he left early.

"It seems I came at the right time. A certain king has finished his inspirational speech."
