Can you withstand the power of this sword strike, which has been used twice in the game?

First to step forward was the tall and muscular Layton, followed by An'i, and then Miluko hiding behind An'i.

“I heard your voices and saw what was posted in the chat group.”

Layton walked and talked, his expression serious, until he reached the platform.

Licorina actually took two steps back, giving up her speaking position to Layton.

"Let me give you a brief self-introduction. I am the Shield Hero of the Saintess Squad, Layton Shiklai."

I know that forming a 'demon organization' is pretty reckless.

I've also seen that many people have different ideas and different voices. ＊＝四」『4◇2＜$

Many people are looking for a better way.

But ah...

Our Holy Maiden, haven't you thought of finding a better way?

Of course she had thought about it; the higher-ups of the Hero Alliance, the higher-ups of the Aldrich Cult, and even our Saintess Squad had discussed it.

"We've considered whether there's a way to attract the attention of all the demons to protect humanity while also reducing the danger for the heroes."

The heroes can act in the shadows as usual, without being detected as being from human territory, and humans will not suffer retaliation from the demons. It's perfect, right?

Yes, it's perfect.

But!

If the heroes don't step forward to draw the demons' attention, who else can stand in front of the ordinary people for us?!

who? !

Orcs?!

Should we send orcs to fight the demon scourge?!

The demon viscount has arrived; which orc can stand against him?!

Who else but orcs?

No! No!

Only we heroes can stand before all humanity and help them withstand the unknown demonic calamity!

We heroes were chosen from the very beginning to protect humanity!

So what if it's dangerous?

Isn't it dangerous to fight goblins?! Isn't it dangerous to enter the demon realm for the first time?! Isn't it dangerous to hunt down elite demons?!

Now, we're going to stand upright before the demons, protecting the humans behind them. Isn't that just doing what we've always been doing?!

I am the shield of the Saintess Squad!

It is also humanity's shield!!

I am willing to bear all of this for humanity!

that--

What are your answers?!

Layton roared!

Chapter 37 The Hero, the Brave (4k)

"Everyone becomes a hero because they want to defeat the demons, and that's absolutely true."

But remember this! We're not just fighting demons for the sake of fighting demons!

Layton's impassioned voice echoed throughout the entire venue.

Many brave warriors' hearts also suddenly trembled.

It is indeed important to defeat the demons, and as heroes, they must also defeat the demons.

But in the year-long campaign, how many people have forgotten their original purpose?

It seems that some people fight against demons to avenge their deceased family members.

Some people, however, do not want to see the tragedy that happened to them happen again.

The heroes have been following the plans of the Heroes' Alliance, and it seems...

It seems they've forgotten that this isn't a job for them.

Rather, it is a more important and greater mission;

Protect humanity.

The hero appears to protect all of humanity.

No matter how dangerous, difficult, or terrible it may be!

We can't let ordinary people who should be protected by us bear all this...!

They have no ability; they can only trust us and stand behind us to support us.

They can only entrust the future, their hope, and everything to us, can't they?!

"I really like a quote from Brother An Yi, which is also a quote from the Sword Hero. He said;

A brave person is someone who dares to fight against demons.

As heroes, we bravely stand before the demons, bravely bearing their hatred—so what?!

We were chosen by the gods to eliminate the suffering brought by the demons!

So what if the strategy isn't perfect!

We should also bear the consequences of imperfections!

Or……

Are we not brave enough to even bear the consequences?

Can this really be called a "hero"?!

"well said!"

The mighty hero, Ada, suddenly stood up and roared!

"My life was originally meant to fight the demons! If I die protecting humanity while fighting the demons, then so be it!"

What are you worried about! If there are demons, just go and kill them!

Even if I'm killed by the demons, someone will help me kill them back!

Fuck him!

"Yes! Let's take them down! We can't let ordinary people take the blame for us!!"

"Exactly! What's there to be afraid of!"

"Ooo ...

The heroes erupted in cheers, standing up and applauding, with some even moved to tears!

At this moment, they finally remembered—

A brave person is someone who is courageous.

A person who dares to fight against the demon race.

The establishment of a "Demon Clan Organization" by the Demon Clan might invite an attack from the other six Demon Clans, provoking a furious retaliation from them.

But when one hero dies, thousands upon thousands of heroes will rise up!

The demons who killed the hero will not be allowed to live by the heroes who come after them!

Most importantly, by becoming a "demon organization," humans will not be noticed by the demons.

Demons can bring disaster to humanity, so why can't heroes become a disaster for demons?!

"We have already discussed and reached a conclusion regarding the concerns you all have."

At this moment, a calm voice came from the amplification array, drowning out the cheers from the entire audience;

"Don't worry about the demons discovering our connection with ordinary humans."

In the future, we will definitely fight against the demons in places even deeper than the territory of the demon viscounts.

In such a place, it is almost impossible for demons to know of the existence of humans, let alone for them to know what humans look like, speak, or smell.

Even the demons deep within the demon realm might not know that humans exist.

"Our main task is to incite unrest among the demons, draw their attention to us, and thus disrupt their efforts to cause further disasters in the border region."

In this way, with the demon lords struggling to protect themselves, they will naturally have no time to focus on expanding and conquering their territories, and the intensity of the disaster will decrease quickly.

Thus, the goal of protecting all of humanity can be achieved.

This will also allow more heroes who were originally tasked with defending against disasters to participate in the battles deep within the demon realm.

An Yi's voice was calm, devoid of any emotion, calmly recounting all of this.

It was precisely this plain, emotionless voice that gave the heroes a strong sense of security.

It was as if subconsciously, they felt that saying these words without any emotion would prove that the matter was not as serious as some of the heroes imagined.

It seems like it's nothing serious.

"Yes, many demon barons on the border don't even know what humans are!"

"The deeper-level demons have never even smelled human scent, so how could they know we're human killers from across half a country?"

"Indeed, if we eliminate the demon lord who caused the disaster, wouldn't the disaster be averted?!"

The heroes, who had initially been skeptical, suddenly became sympathetic after hearing An Yi's explanation.

The awareness of protecting humanity was brought to mind, and at the same time, a concrete and feasible strategy was learned, so the voices of doubt naturally dissipated.

In fact, if the strategy is clearly explained from the beginning, a lot of doubts and anxieties during the process can be avoided.

However, stirring up emotions first, and then explaining the method clearly, will make it more memorable for the brave and give them more motivation to carry it out.

The emotional ups and downs in the story actually make it more memorable.
