He has been better than others since he was young, and his martial arts skills are outstanding. He is sought after by almost everyone in the kingdom.

Growing up with endless flattery, it is impossible for them to tolerate others competing for their inheritance rights.

So, after the old king once again refused to give up his throne, intentionally or unintentionally, the two brothers could no longer hold back and hurriedly ran to cause trouble for the young man.

However, when he pushed through the crowd and saw the handsome face of another "brother", the noisy atmosphere and the burning anger seemed to be paused.

He is so beautiful...

Maybe, even if he can't compete with her for the throne, he can still stay by her side and be her queen...

Athena's eyes went dark, the corners of her mouth twitched, and she started to make some small movements.

Therefore, this lustful desire soon erupted into a more intense rage due to inexplicable interference.

A skinny little dwarf is worthy of competing with me for the throne!?

Polynices, with a sullen face, took the initiative to attack.

"Noah! Come on! Fight me like a man and have a fair fight! If you lose, you will have to leave this land and Thebes forever!"

Eteocles was unwilling to give in. He thought this was a good opportunity to fight for the throne and he couldn't just give it to his brother so easily.

"And me! Draw your sword! If you're scared, leave this place on your own initiative! In the presence of Apollo and Artemis, I will never allow anyone to show off their cleverness!"

juvenile:"???"

The Demon Lord fell into deep thought.

Damn it, I’ve been wronged...

Also, anyone with a discerning eye can see the difference in our physiques, so how can we talk about fairness?

Looking at the chaotic look in the two men's eyes, Lord Demon finally understood.

In a place unknown to me, there are gods rejecting me...

How does this work?

The higher the status, the more luck is provided. Now that the quality has been improved, the scale must also be accelerated.

Faced with the two aggressive princes, the people around them dared not say a word.

These two are famous heroes, and their martial arts skills are not something that ordinary people can resist.

Although no one knows what is wrong with them, the people can only feel sorry for this new Narcissus boy.

This gave the Demon Lord a headache.

Okay, let’s add a few more names to the little notebook…

If you do this, how can I come back to defend the kingdom when the seven heroes attack Thebes?

Repaying kindness with kindness?

Tsk, it’s okay if I just try.

Even when facing two powerful and famous heroes, the boy's face showed no fear. Instead, he was very calm. His calm demeanor actually caught the eye of a certain peeping goddess.

If nothing else, this attitude is pretty good...

The boy's eyes, as elegant as water, even calmed the two furious princes a little.

That handsome face once again played its role, making the expressions of the two princes more and more gentle.

Athena's eyes twitched, and she felt that these two evil creatures might be the illegitimate children of Zeus, and she waved her hands with a headache.

"Your Highness, why do you want me to leave Thebes? Leave this land that raised me?"

Hearing this, Polynices' expression became furious again, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.

why?

Why are there so many scandals in the royal family?

Seeing that his younger brother was trying to compete with him, Polynices simply threw the guard's sword to the boy, barely allowing the unarmed boy to have a "fair" fight.

Then, amid the exclamations and reluctant expressions of the crowd, he suddenly charged forward.

“Qiang————!!!”

"Varied…!!??"

Polynices' pupils shrank in disbelief. Those calm eyes seemed unable to stir up any ripples.

Before Polynices could react, the young man had already drawn his sword and stood firm, even blocking his charging blow.

A young boy... a child, blocked the attack of a hero like himself?

Suddenly, a flame of anger and shame burned in his pupils.

“Clang clang clang clang clang——!!!”

The collision between the swords gradually became more intense.

The sparks were so dangerous that even the surrounding citizens were unable to dodge and looked in shock at the beautiful boy who began to shine.

"Gulu..."

The old blacksmith in the blacksmith shop could hardly open his eyes because the wind and waves caused by the collision of the two swords were too terrifying.

If you face the sharp edge of the sword head-on, I'm afraid that a small wooden house will collapse in an instant!

However, a kind old lady in the crowd was watching with great interest, her eyes becoming somewhat surprised and passionate.

What a good seedling...

She could tell that the boy hadn't received any formal swordsmanship training, yet he could rival and even suppress a famous hero based solely on his intuition. This was truly...

Athena's eyes burned, and she felt that she might, probably, perhaps, have made a mistake.

This beautiful boy has great potential...

Moreover, he hadn't used his full strength yet.

The scene of that petite figure fighting with swords against a strong man with an adult body can only be described as spectacular.

Athena's interest was instantly piqued.

My heart is itching, and my hands are itching too.

We've all seen the young man's potential, and we'd be unworthy of our reputation if we didn't intervene...

Chapter 224 Athena: Listen to my excuse!

Danger lurks on every side!

At some point, Polynices began to be unable to withstand the young man's sword, and his face gradually turned pale.

Athena also saw this scene.

He shook his head slightly disappointed.

After all, he is no match for a true demigod hero.

Then, Eteocles, who was watching the show with gloating and even began to feel pity for the young man, suddenly roared in anger.

"Polynices! My brother! Hold on! I'm here to help you!"

Before the sound was even finished, many people scattered like frightened birds.

Even after Eteocles joined the battle, the young man remained incredibly calm, as if his handsome face had never shown any expression other than calmness.

This also made Athena's eyes look more and more strange.

That burning, increasingly interested gaze was fixed on the young man.

But at the age of twelve, he can already achieve this level. If he grows up a little more...

The strange look in his eyes instantly changed Athena's original thoughts.

I'm so sorry, my dear friend.

I actually don't have any bad intentions, I just want to polish the child you value.

You don’t want to see Noah’s pearl covered in dust, right?

"Qiang——!!!"

With a sound of sword sound, the young man forced back the two breathtaking princes, but the young man himself did not show any signs of panting or exhaustion.

This unfathomable strength actually awakened the two angry princes, and their eyes were filled with fear and regret.

However, the two brothers became more and more convinced of the rumors in the palace.

The old king's best child...

It's really strong!

If they don’t get rid of this “illegitimate child”, they are afraid that they won’t be able to sleep peacefully!

Who would have thought that the young man would put down his sword. His calm eyes and handsome face made most people not want to draw their swords against him.

"I don't want to fight with the people of my hometown with swords. We shouldn't be enemies."

Polynices straightened himself up a bit and glanced at the young man unwillingly.

As a hero, he shouldn't be so unbearable, but the inheritance rights of an "illegitimate child" have touched his reverse scale.

In particular, he was the eldest son and was more qualified to inherit the throne than his younger brother Eteocles.

So Polynices pointed his sword at the young man and scolded him harshly.

"Of course you can say that, Noah! But you're standing in my way!"

Eteocles also thought that Noah was blocking his way.

If it weren't for Noah, his father would have passed on the throne long ago!

The hostile expressions of the two men made the boy silent. After a long time, the boy's expression became lonely, as if he had made a difficult decision and began to make some compromises.

"I understand. I will leave Thebes."

The somewhat lonely look and sadness revealed by the handsome and flawless young man made the hearts of many people seem to be tightly gripped.

It hurts, it hurts so much.

Athena had to be moved by it.

That beauty that does not belong to this world, at this moment, brings out his charm to the fullest.

Even the flying birds would feel unfair for him.

What a cruel act it is to force such a beautiful young man to leave his homeland?

Scratching her face uncomfortably, Athena suddenly wondered if she had gone too far.

But it's not over yet.

Polynices and Eteocles, overjoyed at the young man's words, breathed a sigh of relief.

"Good! You made the right decision! Noah! I will give you some compensation. Tell me, what do you want? Whether it's wealth or beauty, I can help you find it!"

In his ecstasy, Eteocles no longer noticed the gloomy look in his brother's eyes and made a promise impatiently.

The alluring promise of wealth and beauty made the people, who were just pitiful teenagers, suddenly envious.

Athena also narrowed her eyes and looked at the boy.

However, the boy showed no sign of being moved, which made Athena nod with satisfaction.

I only heard the young man's cold voice speaking slowly.

"I have only one request, Your Highness."

As he spoke, the boy bent down, picked up a stone that was lying around, and carefully placed it on his belt.

"I ask His Royal Highness to allow me to take a piece of stone from my hometown so that I can always remember my hometown."

In one sentence, the whole room fell silent.

Polynices and Eteocles, brother and sister, were both stunned with astonishment.

The people around even widened their eyes.
