Chapter 331: Nocturne: You Think I'm a Hero?
Chapter 331: Nocturne: You Think I'm a Hero?
"Who's close to this chuunibyou?"
"Who's friends with this poser?"
As Aurora finished speaking, Nocturne and Sida suddenly chimed in unison, refuting her.
"In my previous world, I was called a chuunibyou, but here I'm known as a Shadow Power Seeker! I'm nothing like you. You're as dark as they come, yet you pretend to be a perfect knight, a real poser."
"You, the Domination King, are calling me a poser? I only pose when I have to, unlike you, the Harem King."
Watching Nocturne and Sida bicker upon meeting, Aurora stood aside, covering her mouth with a light smile.
Previously, she had found Sida quite interesting, but now she suddenly realized that this "Hero" was also extraordinary.
Unfortunately, she was already dead, and perhaps one day she would be resurrected, otherwise she would have kept a close eye on these two, observing their future and the sparks of interest they might create.
After bickering for a while, they both realized the urgent task at hand was to find a way out of the Holy Realm. They simultaneously turned their attention to the Holy Sword at the center of the realm.
"The Holy Sword, it usually has that kind of setting where only a hero can draw it out, and no one else can move it, right?"
Looking at the Blue Holy Sword standing at the center of the Holy Realm, Sida didn't approach to draw it. He understood that according to typical plot settings, the Holy Sword required recognition from a chosen individual to be drawn.
"Indeed, the Lake Holy Sword can only be drawn by one who is recognized. In other words, the one who can draw this sword is the so-called Hero."
Aurora and Olivier didn't refute Sida's words; instead, they further confirmed them.
"In that case, I definitely have no chance. No matter how you look at it, I can't possibly be the one to become the Hero."
As Sida spoke, he curiously reached out and grasped the hilt of the Holy Sword. As he expected, no matter how hard he tried, the sword remained firmly in place, not budging an inch.
"Aside from drawing the Holy Sword, is there any other way to leave the Holy Realm?"
Seeing that Sida couldn't draw the sword, Nocturne turned to ask Olivier and Aurora.
To be honest, Sida's inability to draw the sword was a bit surprising to Nocturne.
In his eyes, Sida had always been the Child of this World, blessed with the Main Character Aura. Damn it, whether it was the Holy Sword or anything else, shouldn't it be within his grasp? Or rather, shouldn't a sword that only the chosen can draw be meant for a protagonist like Sida?
"Why look for another way? My inability to draw the sword is expected, I was just trying it for fun.
Clearly, drawing the Holy Sword is something you should do. Aren't you the Hero?"
The Holy Sword was originally Olivier's weapon, but the current Olivier with her Memory Fragment wouldn't be recognized by the sword.
As for Aurora, she was the Demon Diabros, so it was even more impossible for her to gain the recognition of the sacred sword.
Nocturne had initially placed high hopes on Sida, but now seeing his failure, his first thought was to find another method.
"What nonsense are you spouting? Since you can't draw it, why do you think I can?
Do I look like the so-called Hero to you?"
Hearing Sida's suggestion to draw the Holy Sword, Nocturne showed disbelief, certain that he couldn't draw the so-called Holy Sword.
"You're already a Hero, aren't you?!"
Sida's self-denial about Yecheng caused him to frown, just as Yecheng had always believed Sida to be the main character, Sida had also believed that Yecheng was the true protagonist of this world.
They were all transmigrators, and Sida was destined to be the antagonist to the 'Shadow Power Seekers.' It made no sense for Yecheng to not have a proper setting, otherwise how could they have a final showdown?
Seeing Sida's expression of absolute belief, Yecheng couldn't help but sigh in exasperation, and soon he realized that even Aurora and Olivier were looking at him with the same incredulous gaze.
"No way, no way, do you guys also believe that I'm some kind of Hero who can gain the recognition of the Holy Sword and pull this thing out?"
Aurora: "At least for now, there doesn't seem to be anyone more like a Hero than you."
Although Aurora hadn't known Sida for long, she was well aware that he couldn't possibly be a Hero. Compared to the so-called Hero, he was more like her.
Olivier: "Yecheng, just give it a try. I believe you're the Hero that the Lake Holy Sword is waiting for.
No matter how you look at it, you're far more outstanding than I ever was. And the fact that Sida and Aurora met, and that I could encounter you, already signifies something, doesn't it?"
Seeing that everyone present believed he could draw the Holy Sword, and their unwavering faith in him, Yecheng couldn't help but sigh heavily.
"Whatever happens next, I'm not taking responsibility. After all, it was you who asked me to draw the sword."
"Boom———"
Just as Yecheng's hand slowly reached for the Holy Sword, a loud noise suddenly interrupted his action.
Following that, a middle-aged, chubby man in a black and red tight-fitting suit, holding a sword, abruptly shattered the pristine white space and appeared there.
From his panicked expression, it was clear that he was being chased by someone, and out of desperation, he had ended up here.
Almost simultaneously with the middle-aged man's arrival, another figure in a black tight-fitting suit, with long golden hair and an exceptionally alluring figure, an Elven girl, also arrived in pursuit.
Needless to say, the middle-aged man in the black and red suit, was the bald bishop who had been conducting the Goddess's Trial outside.
As for the Elven girl, also in a tight-fitting suit, but with a remarkably curvaceous figure, it was none other than Alpha, the big sister of Shadow Manor.
While Yecheng and Sida were trapped in Olivier's and Aurora's Memory Cage, Alpha and the bald bishop's group had different experiences upon entering the Holy Domain.
Perhaps because they weren't participants in the trial, Alpha and her group weren't pulled into the odd spaces, but directly entered the interior of the Holy Domain.
The so-called Holy Domain was actually a massive research facility of the Diabros Cult.
Here, Alexia and the others also witnessed a portion of Olivier's memories and the past atrocities committed by the Diabros Cult.
In their pursuit of obtaining the immortal power of the Demon Diabros, they conducted inhumane experiments on countless innocent children, and even Olivier himself was one of their research results!
Olivier was one of the best adapters to the Diabros Factor, which explained his astonishing mana and talent.
