A Mistaken Encounter: The Hero of the World

A hole appeared on the pitch-black shell!!!

The Scorpion of Disaster's single eye trembled violently in fear.

"Wryyyyyyyyyy!"

It let out an angry roar, and all its claws and tail attacked Serven indiscriminately. It swung its body wildly, trying to throw the adventurer away.

In vain!

All its legs stomped on the ground, and its whole body shot out like an arrow. But Serven slammed again, and the long knife stabbed deeply into the previous wound, enlarging the wound again, and the whole person was firmly hanging on the Scorpion of Disaster.

"Wryyyyyyyyyy!" Andaris was completely panicked.

The terrifying scream sounded like a pig to Serven. He had successfully captured the location of Andaris's magic stone from the wound, and stabbed at the huge magic stone with all his strength.

[Autumn Water] was unstoppable, breaking through the obstruction of numerous muscles and blood vessels, and piercing the magic stone deep in Andaris' body in one fell swoop.

The pitch-black monster roared unwillingly, its tail still pointed at the bright moon, its single eye fixed on the god not far away, the bright moon in the sky was clearly within reach.

Clearly already close to victory——

It finally turned into a pile of ash.

Only the very end of the tail fell to the ground.

Serven half-knelt on the ground, gasping for breath. The black and golden ashes that the monster had transformed into danced around him like fireworks celebrating victory.

Serven had no time to pay attention to these things at this time. He vaguely felt that he had obtained something unknown from Andaris——

All the cells are cheering, and the pores all over the body open involuntarily, and a cool, refreshing feeling of comfort reaches the top of the head.

The mind becomes unusually clear.

"¨～ It's over?!"

Artemis looked at Andaris who had turned into ashes, with a look of disbelief on her face. Serven actually defeated Andaris!

She had already decided to risk her life to stop this monster, but in the end, this dark monster was destroyed by Serven, whose body was in tatters...

Her steps were a little unsteady. As the main god, she even temporarily put her own family behind her and ran to Serven, "Orion, are you okay?"

Serven was still thinking about his changes when Artemis suddenly hugged him.

He was a little slow to react and his head was buzzing.

"Orion, are you okay?" Artemis repeated.

"Orion?"

The goddess stroked Serven's face with her hand and nodded heavily, "Yes!"

Serven blinked, not understanding what the goddess meant.

The entire large cavity suddenly shook violently, and some fine sand and gravel continued to fall.

“This place is going to collapse!”

Artemis quickly called out the names of her family members.

Serven struggled to stand up with the help of Qiu Shui. Artemis came over with the help of a girl and supported Serven. The other girls were also supported by the stronger Letesha, and they left the cave together before the landslide.

The air was filled with smoke and dust, and a few girls who survived the disaster were crying and laughing.

"Lord Artemis, I thought we were all going to die in there..."

"I made it out alive..."

“Only Alyssa…”

As Andaris disappeared, the scorpion attack movements in front of Rant and his group who were fighting monsters outside the ruins froze at the same time, and then turned into dust.

"???"

Rand was stunned with his eyes wide open.

"The crusade must have been successful." The deputy leader retracted his weapon and said with a relaxed smile.

At the same time, in the underground city of the maze city of Orario.

Finn and the others watched the attacking monsters retreat like a tide and showed surprise looks.

"Is this, the riot is over?"

"probably."

"Maybe the source of the monster rampage has been solved..." Finn said, licking his thumb.

Everyone nodded and breathed a sigh of relief.

After waiting for a while and confirming that the monsters were not continuing the riot, Finn spoke again, "This riot is really over. Go home!"

"Oh oh oh——" the clan members responded happily.

The Lv7 man put away his two swords without saying a word, and followed the "Four Flame Gold Warriors" back to the area.

"Thank you, Ota." Finn thanked with a smile.

"I am only carrying out the will of the goddess."

The subjugation of the mysterious creature [Black Scorpion] Andaris has finally come to an end.

Ended with victory.

Chapter 48 The Favor of the Goddess [Subscription Request]

Outside the ruins of Ersos, the trees that had been deprived of their vitality have recovered.

The vibrant green stretches as far as the eye can see, the quietly flowing water is crystal clear, the deer eating the grass are lively and cheerful, and even the sculpture of the hunting goddess outside the ruins has birds perched on it, singing freely.

The forest is resurrected.

Seeing that everyone in Artemis' group was injured, Lant and the others quickly ran over to support the seriously injured.

"Mr. Serven is seriously injured!" Lant was about to catch Serven, but another pair of hands got there first.

She pouted and looked over. It was the captain Letesha with long gloves and fiery red hair!

Fireproof, anti-theft and anti-bestie!

Letesha's injuries were not too serious. After taking potions and receiving healing magic, her injuries were under control.

Lant opened his eyes wide. Letsa took Serven from the Lord God, let him put his hands on his body, put one hand around Serven's waist, and ordered her clan members to bring antidote and healing potions.

Lant hugged his fellow clansman and saw Letsa's cautious movements. He had to admit that he was indeed inferior in skills.

After a moment of silence for their dead compatriots, the clan temporarily regained peace.

night.

"Master Artemis, Mr. Serven is asleep. The tent..."

Serven had fallen asleep in the afternoon. After returning to the outside world, he completely relaxed. The fatigue and weakness accumulated from the battle overwhelmed him all at once, and he fell asleep as soon as he was put on the ground.

At this time, the girls were busy with the aftermath and had not even set up the tent, so they temporarily placed Serven on the lawn covered with a mat.

Now that it's night time, it's natural to give the clan's great contributor better treatment.

"Just use my tent," Artemis replied.

"Lady Artemis!" A group of girls looked at their main god in surprise. Even Letesa, who asked the main god a question, was surprised.

Artemis blushed slightly and tucked some of her hair behind her ear, "I…I won't be using the tent for now, so just let him get some sleep."

"Lord Artemis, you..." It was the first time for the group of people to see their main god looking like a little woman.

The main god who had always forbidden his family members from falling in love, until recently when he was contradicted by Lant, has slightly relaxed his dogma.

But now, the Lord God himself seems to have fallen in love——

"Does Lady Artemis like Mr. Serven?"

“…No.” The goddess’ tone was not particularly firm.

"I also want to have a relationship with Mr. Serven..." Lant glanced at his main god and sighed.

Artemis' face flushed again, this time from anger, "No. Rejected! Polyamory is impure!"

Everyone saw the goddess' anxious expression.

"But, Lady Artemis, how do you know that Mr. Serven has no romantic partner in Orario?"

Artemis opened her eyes wide. Yes, [Orion] is so outstanding - he must be very popular in Orario. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel a little depressed.

Even, [Orion] is still a title that I gave to someone else - the other party has not agreed (ceda) -

The goddess suddenly became a low-pressure state.

"Lant!" Letsa glared at Lant, and the half-elf girl covered her mouth.

The deputy leader walked up to his main god, "Lord Artemis, can you tell us how Mr. Serven defeated Andaris?"

"Yeah, yeah, I really want to hear it!"

"Yeah, I want to know too!"

Hearing the words of the family members, Artemis frowned. She was not good at describing her own or other people's adventures. She looked at Letsa for help. Letsa sighed and told her the story of her adventure in the ruins.

"The stomach was stabbed!"

"Injected with venom!"

Whenever they talked about Serven's injuries, the clan members would exclaim in surprise, feel distressed, and then express their admiration for Serven's strong will.

They finally felt relieved when they heard that Serven had defeated Andaris. Thinking of Serven standing up and fighting again and again, they felt as if they had seen a hero who stood in front of them even though he was covered in wounds.

No wonder Master Artemis fell—

They sighed with emotion. Even the audience like them were moved, not to mention the Lord God who witnessed everything on the spot.

When Serven woke up, it was already late at night and the sound of crickets was very clear.

In front of him, there was a figure standing by with his legs hugged. His little head was resting on his knees, and he had fallen asleep while sitting.

"Master Artemis..."

Artemis' eyes lit up, and she grabbed Serven's hand in surprise, "Orion, you're awake!"

"Orion?"

The goddess looked away, "Sorry, you don't have to worry about that. Are you okay?"

The heroic and cold goddess who often has a serious and tense face, now has softened facial lines and a blush on her face.

"Yes, I have recovered a lot. But you--" Serven replied calmly. He then noticed that the goddess' cheeks were red. "Are you okay? Goddess Artemis."

Being stared at by Serven, Artemis' face turned even redder, steam came out of her head, and she stuttered when she spoke, "I...I'm fine..."

"Would you like to catch up on some sleep? Leave the night watch to me."

The goddess nodded obediently.

But even though Serven sat by the campfire, Artemis did not fall asleep. She sat in the tent looking at Serven's back, and felt her heart beating faster, and a strange emotion quickly rose in her heart.

Keenly aware of the burning gaze behind him, Serven turned around and looked at Artemis in confusion.

The goddess and Serven looked at each other for a few seconds, a blush creeping up from her neck to the top of her head. She quickly lay down and got into the quilt, pretending to sleep.

But there was a scent left by Serven on the quilt——

This is the smell of Orion. Artemis took a deep breath, then felt that her behavior was impure and quickly shook her head.

The next day, the group began to return to the original waterfall, where Serven would say goodbye to everyone.

The goddess's vague gaze would always stop on Serven from time to time.

Serven had noticed something, but every time he spoke to the goddess, Artemis would blush and turn her head away.

"Master Artemis, you can't do this! If you always give Mr. Serven the cold shoulder like this, he might think you hate him!"

"Huh? Hate? No!" Artemis replied in surprise, realizing the seriousness of the question.

You must muster up your courage!

However, while they were hesitating and wavering, the group had already returned to the waterfall. Serven had already led the flying dragon and came to say goodbye to them.

"Well then, Lady Artemis and ladies, I will take my leave."
