Kaidan sat in the church in the City of Light, listening to the priests there preaching.

"When evil and filth fill the world, demons are rampant, and people are depraved, the hero of light will come to the world, and he will save us from water and fire, just like he has always done."

The priestess with long hair shawl said, she clasped her hands together and led everyone to pray to the hero of light.

"Save us, heroes of light..."

Waves of prayers spread, and among the people praying to the statue of the Hero of Light, there were many mages from Brakada.

The continuous wars in Brakada and the plundering undead make the mages exhausted mentally and physically. Praying like the Erathians can actually make them relax and hand over their worries to a greater existence, so that they no longer have to worry about those pains. trouble.

Kaidan just watched quietly. Although he was an Erathian, he did not have the habit of praying. His long career as a mercenary made him not believe in anything outside himself.

After the prayer, the priestess came to Kaidan. She had a smile on her face, but her eyes seemed to be far away: "Your Excellency Kaidan, you still refuse to accept the guidance of the hero of light."

"I'm not here for the Hero of Light." Kaidan curled his lips and said. He looked in the direction where everyone was praying, and saw the lifelike huge statue without a face. "Mage Tazis is very concerned about it. When can you put it down?" Will you make up for the rest of the remuneration?"

During the time he came to the City of Light, Kaidan and the apprentices in the alchemy workshop worked together to build the huge statue before the agreed delivery date.

However, the church in the city could only provide part of the payment and asked for a period of grace. Although Master Tazis was helpless, he could only accept that this was not Bracada after all, and the Master's words were far less effective than in the past, so he had no choice but to agree to the request.

Kaidan's mission also became to urge the church to come up with gold coins as soon as possible. Kaidan seems to be no stranger to this kind of work of collecting debts. If Master Tazis hadn't specifically asked him not to make things ugly for both parties, Kaidan would have resorted to more drastic measures.

"When the time comes, the remaining gold coins will naturally be paid to you." The priestess replied. Kaidan was helpless. It seemed that no matter how many times he asked, their answers were always the same.

"Look at them." At this moment, the voice of the priestess came to Kaidan's ears. Following her line of sight, Kaidan also saw the mages who were praying. "Those mages, because of their hatred of the heroes of light, With faith, they no longer have fear and confusion in their hearts. The heroes of light have taken away their fear and pain. Their current peace and beauty are all due to the power of the heroes of light."

Kaidan didn't take it seriously: "Hero of Light? How come I didn't know that there are still people who believe in this kind of character? The records about the Hero of Light are just ancient legends told by bards. No one has ever really seen him, and no one can Confirm his existence. If you say you follow the Stigmata and believe in the gods, I might agree with you, but the Hero of Light? That’s just a story."

Kaidan had heard stories of heroes of light.

It was in a tavern. When Kaidan was half drunk, a down-and-out bard held his tattered tambourine, clapping and singing on the stage where everyone could see, in the form of a ballad, to the audience. Everyone played the story of the Hero of Light in exchange for a meager reward.

In ancient times, a hero of light walked the world. He ended wars, killed evildoers, and saved countless innocent people. He fights for justice and cleanses the world of all injustice.

The bard composed his heroic deeds into a bright and heroic war record that is familiar to later generations. According to legend, the hero of light killed the evil hero who caused trouble, eliminated the demon king in the depths of hell, beheaded the corrupted Griffin Heart King, and executed the evil lich who tried to subvert everything. Each of the classics The repertoire is still performed by the troupe to this day. But anyway, those are just some unconfirmed stories.

During this period of time, Kaidan relied on his excellent pathfinding skills to figure out his current location.

After Taqis took the people from the alchemy workshop and left the City of South Wind, they did not actually enter Erathia. Instead, they came to the junction of the Holy Kingdom and the Mage Empire, an area that has always been chaotic and unmanaged. , and a little further east, you will reach Vilning, occupied by the Necromancer.

I don’t know when the City of Light was established in this chaotic area. At least according to the information provided by the Freelance Chamber of Commerce, Kaidan had never heard of it. Due to his lack of understanding of Erathia, Master Tazis still thought that this was the church within Erathia, but Kaidan had already discovered the anomaly.

The faith in the City of Light will never be accepted by the real Erathians, but by the fleeing mages. With the God of Mages in front of them, it is easier for them to believe in everything about the heroes of light.

"You think the Hero of Light is just a story?"

From the change in Kaidan's expression, the priestess seemed to see what he was thinking, and then stared at him with an unkind look: "Before the devil was rampant, people also thought that everything in hell and Cloud City were stories. The world has already The hero of light who is in danger and fights for justice will surely reappear in the world and continue to complete his mission. He will save us all, including you of course."

Sensing the enthusiasm in the priest's words, Kaidan did not argue with her. He knew that he could not convince someone with such a firm belief, but would only be asking for trouble.

As for the arrears of remuneration from the Church of Light Heroes, Kaidan has reason to believe that it is not because they want to default on the debt, but just a way to keep Master Tazis and his apprentices in the city and slowly spread the word.

Although Kaidan looked down upon this approach, he had to admit that it was indeed effective. At least until he received all the rewards, Master Tazis would not leave the City of Light. This process can take weeks, even months.

"Heroes of Light..."

After the priestess left, Kaidan curled his lips. He looked at the huge statue in the distance with a bit of contempt in his eyes. After going through all kinds of things, he would not believe that there would be any heroes of light. Even if there were, I'm afraid they would be the same as those doomsday kings, not much better.

There is no justice in this world. The end is coming, and the powerful kings are going to war wantonly. They don't think about protecting the weak. They think about how to carve up the world. The weak can't protect anything and can only be bullied and displaced. The end will happen even sooner.

As for the bright hero who only fights for justice and eliminates injustice in the world, I am afraid that he can only exist in the stories of bards.
