fifty-seven so-called brave
Lott, sixteen years old, is a student of the Magic Academy in an ordinary town. Perhaps for a sixteen-year-old boy, this is an age that advocates adventure. Although it is hard to say how many people really have the courage to walk out of the village alone with a long sword at this age, at least it can be called "admiration".
But Lott is not one of them - in the eyes of all students, this guy with good sword skills and good fighting talent can obviously join them, discuss the customs and personalities of different places together, and then fantasize about traveling with a sword.
But in fact, this guy who sat in the penultimate seat next to the window in the project was staring out of the window for most of the day, looking like he was doing nothing... Perhaps after obtaining enough graduation scores, this guy would continue to stay in the college to teach with peace of mind, or maybe he would do some ordinary and safe work within the scope of other majors.[]
Although this is indeed the way out for almost all students in this academy after graduation, this guy seemed to have accepted such a non-stimulating fact earlier than others - he never even had a trace of fantasy.
Because in Lott's opinion, perhaps the exciting adventure is indeed very exciting, but after removing this passionate feeling, there is endless danger. Perhaps you will get some tricky toxins due to lack of experience when you go out, or you will starve to death because of getting lost while exploring a certain maze.
But it is not just what those people think. Only with enough strength is enough to deal with various problems during the journey. You should know that the difficulties encountered during the adventure journey are not only monsters, but also robbers, bandits, and even various harsh environments and trap mechanisms.
A little hemiplegia is a trivial matter, and it is more likely to lose your life - of course, it is fear of death, or no one is not afraid of death, but... if it is just for the passion and excitement of adventure, then using your own death as a bargaining chip seems not equal.
Therefore, Lott was not interested in this, but his personality seemed a bit unbelievable to everyone in his town, because this town is no more than anything else, a place where there has been a strong point in the history of the word "brave".
Of course, it is not the place where the brave are born, nor the ordinary city that they pass through during their journey - but the place where a brave man who was too injured after defeating the Demon King in history fell.
It is said that the legendary brave sword of love remains in the cave where he died. The cave is located in the back mountain of the city and has become a veritable "Sword of the Brave". If this is the case, it will naturally lead to the sword drawing ceremony of the more popular identifying the brave.
But since it killed or sealed the Demon King's sword, whether it was an ordinary weapon or a powerful treasure in the past, it would become no longer ordinary... or strange.
Therefore, although as long as you can take out the sword of bravery, no one has been able to lift the sword of bravery that is so mysterious that it even makes people doubt whether it still exists after entering that cave. Even those who tried and unable to take out the sword of bravery have disappeared in this mysterious cave forever.
Perhaps the brave man who broke the disaster of the Demon King and saved the world did not expect that after his death, he would leave such a "trial" - a trial of death that involved all the greedy, the brave, and the hopeful people in it!
In Lott's opinion, there is not much difference between going in and taking risks for being a brave man, because both are extremely mortality rates and unlikely to accomplish things, which have the meaning of becoming a godless person if he fails to succeed. Therefore, he thought that he could go in and look for death unless he breaks his head, and even doesn't know if it is the "Sword of the Brave" that really exists.
But I didn't expect that there was really such a day - when the horns of the first monster hit the gate of the town, and when the first soldier was brutally torn into two parts by the invaded monster, the first adult man had to prove to enter the team guarding the town, and the first classmate around him cried because of the loss of a relative, the day came.
Everyone was crying that such large-scale attacks on human cities were rare in human history, but not completely missing. Most of them also occurred in such towns with forests with a large number of monsters gathered around them.
The disaster of the monster is not something that can be stopped by ordinary human power. Even though there are many mercenary teams that happened to pass by in this town, it was useless at all. All they could do was to slow down the pace of those monsters destroying the city gates. I am afraid that only if the notification country directly dispatched an army to come over, it would be possible to compete with such a torrent of monsters.
But if it was an army that came from all the way, it would probably have become a dead city before it even arrived here. Perhaps there were a large number of humans in this city, but more of them were just ordinary people. Even if there were some very experienced mercenary teams, this was not enough to compete.
At this time, brave people are needed... Only the legendary brave people can save the city with powerful strength. And just so happens, there is a sword passed down by the brave people. If that sword really exists, if that sword really has the power that is similar to its reputation or even surpasses, if someone can draw that sword!!
Then there is no doubt that this problem can be solved, but under the premise of so many ifs, it is especially the last point - no one can successfully remove this sword, and even those who have the courage to enter this cave are eventually lost in it.
So from this, who will pull out this sword of bravery that may save this town has become the current problem. For a moment, everyone looked at each other - this is a one-way road without any other choice. If it is not a brave man who brings hope to everyone, then it is a burial with the late brave man in this dark cave and become a pool of bones!
"Let me do it." And the young man who broke this silence was the one who did nothing in the eyes of everyone, and was so quiet that he was almost cowardly and afraid of death. They had no doubt that this young man would not even want to pick up any sharp weapon that could scratch himself if he could!
"Well, then I'll go in." Nodded to the adult who stood in a shocked manner in the cave, Lott greeted him and walked in with his hands in his pockets. His expression did not change at all during the whole process, and even his steps did not hesitate at all, as if all he did was to say hello to everyone and go to the bathroom as simple as it was.
After everyone walked into the bottomless cave with shocked eyes, there was no sound, and the scene returned to silence. However, just when everyone thought that this young man with the courage to surprise them would no longer walk out of the cave, and was planning to let the next person go in and try, footsteps were getting closer and closer in the cave.
Lott, who had no expression on his face, slowly walked out of the cave. His body was not worn or damaged, and everyone thought that he had just gone to the toilet... but he hadn't washed his hands anymore!
But what he carries out was a mysterious giant sword in his unwashed hands - his whole body is wrapped in a strip of runes engraved with runes, showing his mystery...
This is...the real sword of bravery that they have been looking forward to! Seeing this, everyone present was shocked. Even the monsters in the distance were hitting the city gate, and they forgot about the fact that life was hanging on the line.
"Don't worry, it'll be fine." The young man holding the sword just kept this sentence and walked without saying a word towards the city gate that had already broken through the last one and began to rage in the city. At that time, just a half-year-old child slaughtered all the invading monsters.
As powerful as ghosts and gods, but in the eyes of all villagers, it is indeed the heroic posture of the brave they have always imagined...
"Why?" Looking at the boy who was swaying and holding the giant sword weakly behind him, he asked a red-haired girl in his class.
"Because I... no longer want to see my friend crying." After saying this, I fell down.

Since the sword of bravery was drawn, the next thing seemed to have become a matter of course...
After taking a hand of a blacksmith's hand, it seemed that the quality was not very good. Perhaps it could only deal with the Slime's iron sword at the entrance of the village, and then took a set of cloth armor and forehead protection from the tailor's shop aunt, which was slightly easier to move, but in fact, Lot appeared at the entrance of the village - of course, he also took the "certificate" as a brave man from the village chief.
Although it is such an amazing thing as a brave certificate, the village chief actually said it was just a handwritten by the village chief himself, "This child was something we saw since childhood. We also drew the sword of bravery some time ago and became a brave man, so we are definitely not a dangerous person. If there is anything dangerous, just leave it to this little boy to do it!" Such things are all like this.
In other words, it is just an identity certificate for people from other villages to send some troublesome tasks when they see it!
The entrance of the village seemed extremely lively on the day Lott traveled. Maybe they thought Lott might not be back here again, so there was an atmosphere of separation from life and death. After all, since it was the fate of the brave, there was no way to do so.
"Lot, do you really want to travel alone?" said Lot, who was traveling, a girl with long red hair, wearing a hat and costume representing a monk, and asked worriedly.
"Yeah!" Looking at the girl in front of me, Lot nodded affirmatively. The girl in front of me has lived opposite her home since she was a child, which is what ordinary people call childhood sweethearts.
"But..." The red-haired girl seemed to want to say something, but was immediately interrupted by Lot.
"I know." Lott sighed, and there was a smile on his face and he also seemed helpless.
"Maybe even in this country, there are hundreds of brave men like me starting from their own villages every year. Maybe they are melted into a pool of acid by slimes in the first level, or maybe they can last until the next few levels before being hammered into a pool of meat sauce by Milos. It can be said that they can really reach the last level and defeat the devil and save the world. Only a few who have left their names in history."
"But now I finally understand...some things are things that even if I know that the opportunity is slim, someone must do." Finally, I said this.
"...But there is no devil at all now?" The red-haired girl said anxiously after hearing this - no matter how strong Lot is, it's better to travel alone, but it's still too forced to do it alone! Do you really think that she is a real brave man after pulling out this sword? At least she didn't think so naively.
"No, my devil... is always there." Lot said slowly, shook his head, then turned around as if he was traveling, and took a firm step forward.
"Minia." But after taking steps, he suddenly exclaimed his young Tsunyan's name.
"!!" Such a cry made the red-haired monk girl named Minia stunned.
"Maybe, when I come back, I can still catch the old man in your family who ran to where he followed the mercenary team a few years ago!" Lott continued to speak without pause. When he finished speaking, he turned around and smiled with a cracked mouth, as if he knew that the guy who might be hanging on the way was not him.
"..." But for some reason, looking at the smile in front of me, perhaps because it was too dazzling and making me dizzy, Minia felt that maybe this guy in front of me could really come back here?
And at such an ordinary farewell ceremony, Lot set off. Perhaps at this moment, there are also hundreds of young men who are like him and have the same dream in this world who set off with the same dreams.
In this adventure world, it's like a large online
PG game, there is a dream-like boy set off at all times. Maybe he encounters dangerous monsters on the way, or maybe he meets a good partner on the way, but the only thing that is certain is that this is not that game-ove
After that, you can record the game of resurrection in the village.
And the number of people who finally passed this "game" is only a few people. Most of them have become a pool of remains lying on the side of the road without anyone's interest. Perhaps a new "brave man" will turn it curiously and find a bottle of useful potion or a little sister's gold coins in it?
Of course it is more likely that nothing is...
Although it is dangerous to fight against monsters, Lot also saved a strange magic envoy girl besieged by Slime. In this way, to some extent, she took the first step to defeat the devil and save the world?
As for why you have to add a "strange" in front of it, it is because this strange magic made me inexplicably keep up with me.
Lott's journey continued. After constantly defeating Slime and Goblins, he finally met his next opponent. When he was having dinner in the tavern yesterday, a floating wanted list floated on the curry in front of him intentionally or unintentionally, he confirmed this.
It was a girl wearing pitch-black armor and riding the Black Dragon. She looked a few years younger than her, but for some reason, the lawless figure in her eyes reflected in the wanted list was as if something special, tingling his eyes.
But this was not what he really paid attention to, perhaps what really hurt his eyes, the village behind the wanted single portrait was burning in the rage flames of the black dragon... This is not the first, nor can it be the last one.
The endless human beings, coupled with the powerful power of the Black Dragon, would it be like this world if she continued to develop? This was an unimaginable consequence. Lott thought so, and cherished the wanted list with some curry in close proximity.
This also attracted the perverted look from Alina next to her - although she had heard of the pervert who collected beautiful girls' underwear, she didn't expect that there was still the pervert who collected beautiful girls' wanted lists?
But Lott did not refute and said to Alina that "What's wrong with the brave man likes **!", because at this moment another thought was flowing in his heart - only she... cannot be forgiven!
This is what I want to defeat... "Devil King"!
Found.
………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………
Perhaps now is a good time to take action... Lott, who was quietly following Rorona and others, thought about this, and did not feel disgusted because he was a brave man but did such a despicable thing to follow.
"Look, how about we start with the youngest and weakest demon king?" Instead, he said to Alina beside him, and pointed his finger at Toriya's back in front of him. At this time, Toriya was talking happily beside Rorona.
But immediately, Lot canceled his plan: "No, no, it seems to be inseparable from the demon king. Moreover, since it looks so weak, there is no way to successfully weaken the power of the demon king if it is defeated, but it will attract her attention instead..."
With a look at the serious guy around him, Alina casually pointed at Simo who was walking at the end of the team: "Then how about starting with the second-smallest person?"
But just after she finished speaking, her face changed drastically and wanted to slap herself - why did she still give advice to this guy? And she also prayed in her heart that Lott would not agree with her bad idea.
"Well, this idea is good!" But unfortunately, Lott looked at the Simo who walked at the end of the line and ate the big cakes he had packed from the store just now and lit up his eyes.
"Well... there are horns on the head, and it is also dragging a tail similar to a reptile creature. If I guess correctly, it should be a humanized black dragon!" Then he continued to analyze it heavily.
"!!" This statement made Alina shocked her - this guy was quite eye-catching! He just looked at the people around him and his physical characteristics and guessed that it was the black dragon. He thought he wanted to guess what kind of lizard man the other party was? But why did he point out that one of them was such a high-level enemy!! Didn't this dig a hole and jump down by himself? And he was also inserted in advance with needles?
"The ancients had Yun, shoot horses first. Dragon Knight is a kind of knight. In other words, most of her strength needs to be above the mount to be able to be exerted. As long as she turns from a cavalry to an infantry, she will achieve the goal of weakening her strength to the lowest point!" Ignoring Alina's thoughts on the side, Lot continued to touch her chin and said.
"And it seems... this black dragon has a low IQ? Well! It has a chance of winning!" As he said that, nodded repeatedly, and even the eyes he looked at Simo seemed to have a green light. This gaze was in sharp contrast to the stupid look of the mouth full of sauce even though he had already started to leave.
It can be said that among everyone here, the only one who looks ugly in his face - wait... Since he already knows that the other party is a black dragon, why don’t he have any idea to change his mind?! Shouldn’t it be next, next, or next?!
