Everyone is a hero, but I am a second-year player.

"Please, Sword Hero, go to our holy capital and meet Her Highness the Saint!"

The villagers looked at each other, as if they had no idea what was going on.

A brave warrior? Go to the Holy City? Meet the Saint?

But soon, they understood.

It was definitely because of An Yi's outstanding performance that the news spread to that religious country overnight, so he received so much attention!

An Yi looked at the envoy of the Theocracy kneeling on the ground, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

If it was in the previous life, there would probably be a messenger coming to invite me, right?

Unfortunately, in my previous life, as soon as I awakened the system, I ran to the mountains where demons lived and started looking for them like crazy.

He was not to be found in the destroyed village, nor in the town.

In fact, someone invited him to join the team later, but he still chose to be a lone ranger, not wanting to let any friendship interfere with his revenge.

And in this life, he will still choose revenge.

It's not impossible to form a team, but...

Before that, he wanted to test the top leaders of the Church.

"Going to the Holy Capital of the Religious Nation?

I reject."

"Ah?" The messenger was stunned.

“As you can see, my hometown has been devastated.

Rather than being a hero, helping people repair their houses is what I should do most now." An Yi said calmly.

The villagers looked at him with gratitude and emotion.

An Yi, he really... I'm crying to death!

In their eyes, it was as if An Yi had found a lucrative job, but gave it up for everyone and came to help them repair these dilapidated houses.

How could they not be moved?!

"Then please leave the repair work in the village to us!" the messenger raised his head and said loudly.

OK, taken the bait.

An Yi nodded secretly in his heart.

14 1v1! A real man's battle!

"Your Highness, we have contacted the nearest Sword Hero."

In the hall, the believers reported to Saint Licorina on the throne.

"Well, thank you for your hard work." Licolina nodded and asked, "What kind of person is the other party?"

"I heard that last night, before he was chosen as a hero, he killed the big goblin by himself." said the cultist.

"Brother...Brin?" Likolina asked in confusion.

In the past sixteen years, she has spent most of her time not talking to outsiders and knows nothing about most of the knowledge outside.

After all, her mission was only to communicate with God. If she hadn't become a hero, she wouldn't even have to talk to people in person like this.

Of course, it was her own wish to talk to people in person, because she would become a leader in the fight against the demons, and it was time for her to step out of her identity as a saint.

"Your Highness, the correct pronunciation is 'Big Goblin'.

Goblin is a small, low-level demon, and Big Goblin is a larger goblin.

The Goblin is a three-meter-tall monster that can easily destroy houses and devour people. Dozens of first-level demon hunters will be killed or injured in front of this kind of demon. "The cultist explained.

"And before the Sword Hero was chosen by God, he could kill him alone...

It sounds like he is a strong man who is capable enough to be recognized by the Lord God."

Licorina nodded slightly, with a hint of appreciation in her childish voice.

"What else?" she continued to ask.

"Sword Hero..."

The cultist hesitantly shifted his gaze but continued.

"The Sword Hero has rejected our invitation.

He said that he needed to repair the houses in the village more than being a hero.

He also said that he almost lost his family when the village was invaded by demons.

So I want to use this power to protect my family and stay with them."

After listening to this, Licorina nodded after a moment: "Very good, it seems that he is a man whose strength and heart are worthy of the title of a hero."

Although she had not met Anyi yet, she had already formed a good impression of this person after hearing the description of the believers.

Moreover, through these words, she also realized one thing.

"Your Holiness." Licorina turned her beautiful eyes to the Pope standing beside her.

"Yes, Your Highness, what can I do for you?"

The Pope, who was always dignified, behaved respectfully in front of the Saint, the first brave man of mankind.

"According to God's will, thousands and thousands of brave men will be born on this land.

Since they want to attack the demons, the people in the family may be retaliated and harmed by the demons.

Before asking them to save the world, should we protect their families?" Licorina said solemnly to the Pope.

The Pope pondered for a moment, then nodded decisively.

"Your Highness the Saint is right. I will go and make arrangements to protect the family of the Hero now."

……

The next day, early in the morning, the envoy of the Aldrich Theocracy came to Anyi's house.

Not only were there more people this time, they even came with an exquisite carriage, saying that they were going to take Asel's family to live in a big city in the Theocracy.

An Yi agreed decisively because this was exactly what he wanted.

Yesterday he deliberately said that he would help the villagers repair houses, which was a hint to the top leaders of the Church to send people to protect the village and his family.

He was not thinking of getting something for free or taking advantage of others, but it was a test for the top leaders of the Church.

In his previous life, he was a complete lone ranger who would only participate in missions that required a multi-person team.

He seldom communicated with others and had only a superficial understanding of the Aldrich Theocracy.

If they really wanted to benefit humanity, they would realize that the hero's hometown needs protection.

On the contrary, if they didn't have that idea, An Yi wouldn't have entrusted her family to them for protection.

Anyway, the result is to leave the village and live in a city with lower risks. There is no difference.

The Church has taken care of it, but...

The real challenge was convincing Axel.

"What? Moving?! Moving to a big city?!

I won't do it! Who will protect this village if I leave?" Axel disagreed.

"My church has sent the most elite warriors to protect the safety of the village." The messenger vowed.

"Since you've sent soldiers here, why do you want us to move? Can't you protect us?" Asel crossed his arms, looking unwilling.

"This... This is to further ensure your safety, so I hope you can move to a city where demons don't appear." The messenger said with a smile.

"No! This is my home! I will stay here from birth to death and I won't go anywhere else!" Asel refused.

Elsa said nothing, but looked at Axel with support.

Annie was a little conflicted. In fact, she wanted to move to a big city.

Perhaps it was because she had experienced despair in the forest and once again encountered the demons attacking the village, which made her feel less safe in this village.

The only person who could give her a sense of security was An Yi, who saved her from two disasters.

If Anyi would stay home, then she would stay too.

But Anyi said that he might be away from home for a while and would not be back for a long time.

After he said that, how could Annie stay in this village with peace of mind?

If I go to a big city, it will definitely be safer than staying in the village, right?

She and An Yi both support the idea of ​​letting mom and dad move there as well.

At this time, An Yi suddenly spoke.

"Can you please go out and wait for a moment?

Let us have a good talk as a family. ” He said to the messenger.

The messenger was silent for a moment, then nodded: "Okay."

After saying that, he left the room.

As soon as the other party left, Axel couldn't help but said, "An Yi, what are you thinking about?

Although the village is very dangerous now, men have to be responsible!

If I abandon these villagers and flee to a big city, wouldn't that be irresponsible?"

An Yi looked at him calmly.

"If I continue to stay here, wouldn't that be irresponsible for my mother and sister's lives?

If the demons come, it would be responsible to drag them down with us to die, right?"

Although I really want to say this, angering Axel now will only waste more time.

"ten years."

"?"

“I will be back, but please give me another ten years.

Give me ten years, and I will kill the Demon King and banish the demons from this world.

But in these ten years, I couldn't guarantee your safety while defeating the demons.

Therefore, I want you to temporarily stay in an absolutely safe city.

This way I can defeat the demons without any worries."

An Yi's tone changed. It was no longer as calm as usual, but she was petitioning in a pleading tone.

"I...I think An Yi is right!"

Annie stood next to Anyi and stared at Axel firmly.

Axel looked at them in astonishment for a long time.

Then, he laughed.

“Hehe…hahahahahaha—

Good! Good boy! Now that you have grown up, you start to dislike your father, right?!

And Annie is also useless when she grows up!

Two little brats are actually teaming up to deal with me!"

Axel smiled and pointed at Anyi.

"An Yi! I won't run away!

Since you want me to leave! Then let's have a fair fight!

One on one! A real man battle!

If I lose, I will get out of this village!"
