Chapter 75.5. The First Year at the Academy - Hero's Vessel (5)

Before I knew it, the words had slipped out.

I slowly looked around the village, encouraged by the words.

"I'll finish this. Everyone back off."

"Clear up?....... All right, I'll leave it to you."

Markant nodded and left with the others.

I remained alone and looked out over the village.

The logging was not only inside, but also far from the trees outside the settlement.

That guy's confidence made it easy to do.

I pick the tallest tree nearby and leap onto the branch.

Bornis is nowhere to be found. It seems that he is very comfortable in his dwelling.

Climbing to the top of the tree, I probe with his "Presence Detection" to be sure.

No other signs. Just more and more bornis.

I feel weak - eggs?

Do you want to overwinter? It's not even autumn yet, but there seems to be someone who is quick-tempered. I wish I had found it now

I let out a thin breath.

Well, nameless goblin warrior.

Let this be the last trace you leave on this earth.

I focus my attention and release the "Fireball" all at once.

First, the outer perimeter.

The fireballs hit one after another, turning the village scarlet.

Countless fire-engulfed bornis rolled out of the ruins that had been blown apart and were now burning.

The next round coats the intact center of the village, and burns up the bornis trying to escape by flying away with the "Fireball" that bursts in mid-air.

After a few more shots, I made sure nothing was moving, and I jumped down from the tree.

Everyone stared at the village in silence.

In the light of the blazing flames, Markant muttered.

"...... That's a hell of a lot of power."

"Is this intermediate magic with "Multiple Chanting"? I realized why Rapunas is called a hero."

Danil also said with a euphoric expression.

I shook my head.

"This is no heroic thing. It's just destruction."

"No, it's not."

Danil strongly refuted, as if to add insult to injury.

"To accomplish something, you always need power. It does not matter if the power is good, bad, or of any kind. It is the action and the result that counts. That is what makes them heroes."

His eyes focused on me.

I felt a certain respect in their eyes, and I couldn't help but look away.

"More importantly, I need you to extinguish the fire. I have very little magic left."

"Okay, then put it out! Danil, do it with flair!"

"Leave it to me."

The "Battle Axe of Destruction" scattered toward the burning village.

I watched the scene.

This thing - it's a fake.

My roots are in "Increased Growth Potential", a cheat gave to me by a small fat man.

It would be disrespectful for me to put such a thing in the same league as Rapunas and Alphas.

I turn my attention to the rising black smoke.

In that battle, I reached out to the leader.

I wonder what would have happened if we had surrendered.

The situation would have been more complicated.

Even if only he had followed through, the other goblins would have remained the same.

If they are harmful demons, I will kill them.

He and I would have been on a parallel track. I would not have won his trust for the rest of my life.

I think as I look at my burnt-out pride.

He may be the hero of the goblins.
