“Yes, yes,” Venus smiled and suddenly picked up Lisette, turning her to face Chlorie as if displaying a precious jewel. “Look how cute my Lisette is.”

Caught off guard, Lisette could only awkwardly cover her face with her hands.

Kurori was amused by their interaction and laughed: "Indeed, I thought I had mistaken someone else for someone else."

Lisette sighed helplessly, finally removing her hand from her face and forcing a polite smile: "Your Highness Chlorie, may I ask what brings you here?"

"It's nothing much, I just wanted to ask you to put in a good word for me," Kurori replied.

“You’re joking,” Listy quickly waved her hand, her expression humble. “You are an ally of the academy and the leader of the allied nations. Even if something happens, your words are far more effective than mine.”

“But in front of Venus, no one’s words carry more weight than yours, do they?” Chlorie smiled meaningfully.

Lisette glanced at Vina, only to find him looking down at her with amusement in his eyes. She turned away and said, "I can't control this guy."

“Is that so?” Chlorie asked, turning to Venus.

“I’ll make the decisions on big matters, and Lisette will decide on small ones. I just don’t know whether Lady Chlorie’s visit to me this time is about something important or something trivial,” Venus replied with a smile.

"Then put me down first!" Lisette struggled in his arms.

"Letting everyone realize how adorable my Lisette is is a very important matter," Venere said, feigning seriousness, before gently setting her down.

“The relationship between the two of you is truly enviable, but this matter is a big deal for me, but it might just be a small matter for Venus,” Chlorie said, arms crossed.

Upon hearing this, Wiener had a vague idea of ​​the other party's purpose.

"So, you want me to help craft equipment?"

“Exactly.” Chlorie nodded. “I would like to ask you to help me forge a batch of arrows.”

She had seen the Shudrom bow that Anna used and was filled with envy, always saying that she must have Vener forge one for her if she had the chance.

"Just arrows?" Vena was somewhat surprised; he had thought Chlorie would make a more difficult request.

“Don’t think that arrows are simple,” Chlorie said, taking a longbow with intricate patterns and an aura of majesty from her back and handing it to Venus.

"What I need is an arrow worthy of this Nizhegu."

As soon as the bow touched his hand, Vena felt a chilling aura swirling in his palm, a murderous intent that must have accumulated from slaying countless powerful demons.

His gaze sharpened slightly, and he tentatively asked, "The legacy of a hero?"

“That’s right.” Chlorie nodded, her expression becoming more serious.

"This Nizhegu is one of the heroic legacies inherited by the Allied Powers. Although ordinary arrows can be used, a specially made bow is required to unleash its true power."

As the final heroic legacy created by Tauronio, Nizhegu is the weapon in the series that is closest to the Holy Sword.

If a bow alone is not enough to destroy a demon, then adding a demon-slaying arrow and the archer's hard work, the three combined, will be enough to severely damage the demon.

Venus handed the bow back to Chlorie. "I accept this request."

"Don't you need to reconsider?" Kurori thought she would have to explain further.

"Since it's for dealing with the demons, I naturally won't shirk my responsibility within my power."

"But the payment is still—"

"If Lady Chlorie can take good care of Risty for me, that would be the best reward."

At this point, ordinary materials and compensation are no longer enough to satisfy Wiener.

Instead of getting bogged down in exchanging goods, it would be better to take the opportunity to do someone a favor.

“I understand. I will personally ensure Lisette’s safety while she is in the Allied Powers. As for those fools… if they dare to take another step closer, I will make them understand what ‘regret’ means.”

"Thank you so much, Lady Chlorie."

"No problem, no problem."

The two clasped hands, reaching a tacit understanding.

"How long will it take you to make these arrows?" Chlorie asked with concern.

“We can start now.”

After making his statement, Wiener stopped paying attention to the other party and immediately got to work.

He used his sword to start a fire, and with the high temperature emanating from the Zhānō Shāna, he quickly melted the cold iron into molten iron, which he then used to make arrow shafts.

He then tossed a fist-sized piece of black iron to Felix, saying, "Cut it into nine pieces."

“Alright!” Felix responded immediately; he had long wanted to try out his newly acquired scabbard.

However, in Chlorie's eyes, Felix simply waved his hand a few times and cut the incredibly hard black iron into even pieces, causing her to gasp in astonishment.

Vina had no time to care about the other party's surprise; the holy sword Escudo instantly transformed into a forging hammer in his hand.

As the holy hammer continued to strike, the piece of black, cold iron was gradually shaped into an arrowhead.

As for the arrow feathers, Venerer took out the phoenix feathers left over from forging the Saint Cloth from his spatial ring.

Although these feathers are not as fine as the feathers of a phoenix after its metamorphosis, they are still rare materials in the world.

"This...this..." Chlorie was so surprised that she couldn't finish her sentence.

She was not an ignorant person; it was precisely because she recognized these materials that she was even more shocked.

Kurori never expected that the arrow-making task that Venus casually agreed to would actually use materials of this caliber.

She could tell that Venere wanted to use the arrow-making incident to do her a favor.

But at this moment, he was weighing in his mind whether his favor was really that valuable.

As the arrow gradually took shape before her eyes, Chlorie was no longer worried about its quality, but instead fell into deep thought—could she really repay such a favor?

Chapter 632 The Arrow of Demon-Slaying

"Princess Chlorie? Princess Chlorie?"

Listy called out twice before Chlorie came back to her senses.

"Oh, sorry, I was just spacing out for a second." Chlorie glanced apologetically at Lysty before taking the forged arrow from Venus.

As soon as she held it, Chlorie hissed softly. Although the arrow was made entirely of cold iron, it gave her a burning sensation.

But when she tried to feel it again, she only felt a cool and warm touch.

"The combination of black iron and phoenix feathers actually produces such an effect," Chlorie exclaimed.

“Since Princess Chlorie recognizes these two materials, I’ll just talk about these nine arrows,” Venus introduced.

"This arrow is called the Demon-Slaying Arrow. It can severely injure a demon on its own. Three hits are enough to shatter a demon's body. If nine hits are hit, even the demon's blood and soul will be annihilated."

High-end materials often only require the simplest processing methods to achieve their full potential.

The forging of the holy sword endowed the arrowheads with unparalleled penetrating power, rendering both the magic barrier and the demon's invincible barrier useless in its presence.

Once the aura of the demonic blood soul is captured, the power of the holy sword contained within will disrupt the balance between the black iron and the phoenix feathers within the arrow shaft, unleashing a power that destroys everything.

"You mean to completely kill the demon?" Chlorie was startled by his words, her tone filled with disbelief.

“That’s right,” Viner nodded, a smile playing on his lips. “Does Your Highness not believe me?”

"It's not that I don't believe it, it's just that it's too astonishing..." Kurori suddenly felt that the arrow in her hand had become much heavier.

Completely eliminating demons is an ability possessed only by heroes.

To achieve this with just one arrow is something even Tauronio himself couldn't accomplish.

"Just some mere demons; my master has already eliminated countless of them."

Seeing that Vina's well-intentioned explanations were still met with skepticism, Escudo finally couldn't hold back any longer.

She transformed back into human form, snatched the arrow back from Chlorie's hand, and gave her a sour look: "If you don't believe me, then don't take it."

"Little Escdo, don't be rude." Vena pinched Escdo's little face, then handed the arrow back to Chlorie.

"Who is this again?"

Chlorie, having taken the arrow back, looked the girl over with her gaze, her doubts growing rather than diminishing.

After the girl appeared, Nizhegu on her back emanated a complex emotion—a mixture of awe and a desire to get closer.

This was the first time Chlorie had ever seen Nizhegu display such emotions.

“Her name is Escudo, you can also call her Little Escudo, and she is generally known as the Holy Sword,” Vena explained. “Without her help, this anti-magic arrow would not have such power.”

"So it's Lord Holy Sword." Upon hearing this, Chlorie immediately became respectful and quickly bowed.

As she looked down, her mind quickly became active.

Judging from Nizhegu's attitude, the girl's identity is beyond doubt.

But what truly shocked Chlorie was that the legendary holy sword showed obvious respect for Venus, even calling him "master."

Doesn't that mean that Wiener was the real hero?

Thinking of this, a series of events flashed through Chlorie's mind.

No wonder the academy wasn't worried at all when Arios was missing for so long; it seems he was just a smokescreen.

St. Freya Academy probably knew that the hero would be targeted, so they used a fake hero to cover up the real hero, Vena.

However, due to a series of unforeseen circumstances, Arios, who was acting as a substitute, actually had an accident, which led the kingdom to take advantage of the situation and force Vena to step forward as Arios to seek justice for the academy.

The more Chlorie thought about it, the more reasonable her speculation seemed; otherwise, there was no way to explain why Venus could gain the approval of the Holy Sword.

She should have realized that Vena, who could easily forge all kinds of equipment and share the ability to eliminate demons with others, was no ordinary blacksmith.

"I apologize for my previous disrespect, Lady Venus," Chlorie said again.

“No, really not,” Viner quickly helped the other up. “Little E didn’t mean any harm, Your Highness, please don’t take it to heart.”

He was unaware that Kurori had already mentally constructed a story where the entire process was wrong, but the result was surprisingly correct.

“We are all comrades-in-arms fighting together, and we should help each other. Even if there are any misunderstandings, we can clear them up,” Viner said sincerely.

“I understand,” Chlorie quickly composed herself, a confident smile returning to her face. “I will make good use of the equipment bestowed upon me by Lady Vener. Upon returning, I will immediately integrate the Allied Nations and await instructions from the Lady and the Academy.”

She paused, then added, "Of course, I will also take good care of Miss Lisette."

Chlorie originally planned to have Lisette act as her representative to put pressure on those wavering feudal lords.

However, it now seems that this was completely unnecessary; the special relationship between Lisette and Venus alone was enough to intimidate everyone.

Anyone who dares to disrespect her and thus affect the relationship with Wiener is a sinner whom the entire Allied Powers cannot tolerate.

"Then thank you again, Princess Chlorie," Venus said gratefully.

"If there are no other unforeseen circumstances, we will return in three days." When Chlorie said this, she deliberately turned her gaze to Lisette.

"I will definitely be there on time." Lisette nodded.

“Actually, it’s okay if it’s a little later, after all, you have more important things to do.” Kurori suddenly laughed.

No matter how hard Edel tries, as long as she has Lysette as her "wild card," the Allies are already invincible.

Thinking of this, Chlorie felt even happier.

She casually straightened her clothes, then bid farewell to everyone: "Well then, see you in three days."

Watching Chlorie's departing figure, Felix muttered to himself, "Why do I feel like this Chlorie is suddenly acting a little strange?"

“That’s right, he’s become just like you,” Escudo sneered.

“You mean I’m just as smart as her?” Felix suddenly asked with a hint of smugness.

“...Yes, she’s just as intelligent as you.” Escudo felt like he’d punched a cotton ball, and nodded helplessly.

"Just seeing Escudo once, and this has happened," Vina murmured in amazement.

He could sense that Chlorie's changes all began after she learned that Escudora was the Holy Sword.

"She probably sees you as a real hero."

As someone born in the same Allied nation, Lisette was all too familiar with this mentality.

"The Allied Nations may not be as wealthy as the other two nations, but their faith in the hero is the strongest. If you are willing to accept the identity of the hero, Lady Chlorie might even willingly hand over the position of leader of the alliance to you."

"I see..." Viner pondered for a moment, "Then do you think if I went to propose marriage as the hero, I would see my future father-in-law with a bitter face, clearly unwilling, but still having to hand you over to me?"

As soon as Lisette thought of that scene, she burst out laughing. Only after laughing did she take Vina's arm.
