Chapter 124. Birth of a Hero

When Nicholas calmed down, the rest of the story was explained.

Fritz regained his composure, and explained in detail what had happened to Hinata.

The children were also brought here from Glenda, and were listening to Fritz’s explanation. They should have been tired, but were they listening attentively.

They were fed in Glenda, albeit not a proper remedy for their mental fatigue. Nonetheless, without tears or complaints they recited their observations.

Their behavior made Fritz believe that Hinata’s choices were not a mistake.

Nicholas was mulling over the things that were said.

Most importantly, they now confirmed that that Freedom Association’s Kagurazaka Yuuki is indeed their enemy.

Though they still didn’t have a clear picture on how powerful or widespread his brainwashing is, considering that the Demon Lord Kazalim is his subordinate makes him a rather dangerous threat.

Next, the reason for Hinata’s actions.

Following the battle with Demon Lord Rimuru, Hinata was able to dispel the Parasitic thought manipulation, “Crystal of Curses,” and decided to attempt a rescue mission to save the children, as to prevent them to be similarly manipulated.

However, Yuki had set a trap with the children as bait, and a battle started right on the spot.

Her opponent was a hero. After hiding for several

decades, the hero engaged in mortal combat with Hinata.

Although Nicolas was skeptical, but judging from Fritz and the Children’s testimony there was no mistake.

Moreover, there was information obtained from their conversations.

Yuuki intended to plunge the world into chaos and become its sole ruler.

Therefore he carried out multiple summons and was involved in some sort of negotiations.

One should also conclude that he and his conspirators share a common goal.

Then there’s the fact that Freedom Association’s Sub-master is the Demon Lord Kazalim.

Moreover, the Pope of the Holy Empire of Ruberius was not god’s agent, but a mere marionette.

Even the Western Saint’s Church was obeying not the will of a True God Ruminas, but that of a Demon Lord’s.

In other word, the god Ruminas, was actually a demon lord……

However, he hesitated in accepting this revelation. Hinata, at least, seemed to believe it, but then there was also the many hundreds of years of peace and prosperity.

You can’t just say that it was all the work of a Demon Lord and expect people to just accept it.

Moreover, a hero was in the hands of a demon lord and is being manipulated by Yuuki… such sacrilege.

This wasn’t something they could easily disclose, and even if it did, it would only lead to a movement to free the hero.

And that hero has just proven her heroism (absolute strength) in the battle with Hinata.

From the perspective of the Knights, Fritz, and Nicholas, Hinata was beyond human in strength, and yet she was defeated without resorting to any special skill.

The only existence who could overwhelm Hinata who has gotten only stronger after her battle with Demon Lord Rimuru is the hero herself.

「But… to think that it was a hero…
