Never Thought You'd Be This Kind of Hero!
Chapter 124
While Xu Jun's side was in an uproar, the main hall wasn't in a good mood either.
Grace Day used to be a festival that symbolized peace. Since it was a festival to thank the Gods for their blessings, it meant that all races could sit together and live in harmony. Otherwise, everyone could just worship their own Gods. What was the point of thanking the Gods?
At that time, most of the races that participated in the festival were mild-tempered, because those with bad tempers like the Holy Light Elves and the Dragons didn't even come. Those that came were those who were good at arguing and didn't like to openly insult others.
It was not until three years ago that the Sea Serpent Tribe emerged as a new force. They quickly recruited a group of brainless Orcs as their underlings and acted tyrannically in the Northwest Prairie. They came on Grace Day last year and spoke rudely and arrogantly. However, their strength made people speechless. In a fighting competition, the Second Priest of the Sea Serpent Tribe was defeated by the Pope of Light.
In the eyes of the onlookers, this was already very impressive. The image of the Sea Serpent Clan also changed from a little idiot to a powerhouse that could jump up and down. No one dared to provoke him.
Just when everyone thought that the "main character" of this Grace Day was Serpentis … things changed again.
The Demon King, the Dark Demon King Roschinke, also came to participate in Grace Day.
What was this Demon King trying to do?!
Did the Demons finally decide to invade the human world?!!
↑ Almost everyone thought so in an instant.
Even the Emperor of the Golden Banner thought so, but soon everyone calmed down. Forget it, the Demons haven't even conquered the Snow Blade yet. They don't have the time to occupy our golden banner. Let's just do what we need to do.
Don't say that the Snow Blade Empire had shrunk by more than half and lost the rights to the Dark Abyss. Only the people of the Snow Blade Empire would say such things. Unfortunately, Jin Qi had always looked down on the Snow Blade Empire. The Dark Abyss belonged to the demons in the first place. When the humans and demons were on the surface, they didn't dare to snatch it. But when the demons fully moved into Hell, they jumped to snatch the territory.
Take the Golden Banner for example. Although they had expanded their territory over the years and had taken over other people's territories, they had at least taken it with their own hands. They weren't like Snow Blade, who did everything stealthily like a thief.
The Demon King seemed to be a little arrogant and liked to pretend to be young … There didn't seem to be any other problems.
After figuring this out, the leaders present, including the Emperor of the Golden Banner, heaved a sigh of relief.
Anyway, the Fat Rabbit King of the Snow Blade Empire, Essenmeer, was also here. No matter what the Demon King wanted to do during the conference, Essenmeer would be the best target.
Since ancient times, the Demon Race had been bloody and violent. Terrifying legends about the Demon King were spread all over the world. Some said that the Demon King tore his challengers in half in anger, and some said that the Demon King ate people for every meal. Therefore, when the Roshyank The Devil came to participate in the Grace Day celebration, everyone thought that he would beat the King of the Snow Blade Empire, Essenmeer, to death.
However, for some reason, the Roshyank The Devil's neck was raised like a roasted turkey, and he had a condescending look on his face. He looked like he was about to go on a killing spree, but in the end, he just sneered at Essenmeer and left.
The Essenmeer also shook the fat on his face and smiled apologetically. The grudge between the two countries for many years was actually over just like that?
The other leaders were also stunned.
The Pope sighed in his heart. The incident that happened in the Snow Blade that year had long been buried by them. The relationship between the Demon King and First Prince Leon was only known by the current King of the Snow Blade, the Elder Prophet of the Illuminati, and the Pope.
In the eyes of others, the Demon King and Essenmeer were just ordinary enemies.
However, the Pope clearly knew the real blood relationship between the two of them: they were brothers.
The Pope looked at Roschinke, and a trace of nostalgia and pain flashed in his eyes.
Now, the world knew that Deinister and Hero Xu Jun were good friends, but who would remember that the Holy Son Dai Ka also had a good friend named Leon decades ago?
The Pope fixed his gaze on Roschinke, as if he wanted to find the shadow of his good friend on this face that had not left any traces of time. But in the end, he only found … a man who looked like a young man in his twenties with smooth skin and a handsome face.
Damn, my face is full of wrinkles, and you are still so young. Being the Demon King is so good, I also want to be.
The Golden Banner Emperor whispered, "Why do you think he doesn't beat up Essenmeer?"
The Pope whispered back, "… After all, this is a serious occasion."
The Golden Banner Emperor did not believe it, and the Pope had no other choice. He could not tell him that the Demon King and the fat rabbit Essenmeer were brothers, right?
No one would believe it at all. How could a father give birth to two children with such a big difference in appearance?
Could it be that one of them was not the father's, but the son of the old man next door?
The Golden Banner Emperor had no choice but to accept that Roshyank The Devil had a good temper, and that he could even smile at his old rival, the Snow Blade Emperor. But before the Golden Banner Emperor and the other onlookers could get used to this for half a minute, Roschinke and the First Priest of the Serpentis … quarreled.
The First Priest of the Serpentis did not even look as good as the Second Priest of the previous year. He looked like a soaked seaweed, and there were purple tattoos on his face, which made him look like an old witch from a fairy tale.
When he spoke, his voice sounded like an old crow. This guy had been scolded by Roschinke when he first came in, and he still had not learned his lesson. He opened his mouth and said, "I didn't expect that the evil Demon King would participate in such a sacred festival like Grace Day."
The Lord Of The Deep Seur frowned, but Roshyank The Devil held him down. If it was in the past, he would have been angry if someone called him an evil demon. But after spending so much time with Xu Jun, his face had naturally melted away. How could these two words not hurt him?
They could not hurt him at all!
Roschinke did not even look at the First Priest of the Serpentis. "Who said that Grace Day is sacred?"
His words caused an uproar among the crowd.
He continued, "Grace Day is a festival where the Holy Spirits express their gratitude to the gods. The gods include the Sun God, the God of Darkness, the Moon God, the Goddess of Time, the God of Death and End, the God of Sleep, the Goddess of Harvest, and the Goddess of Calamity. If demons are evil, then the God of Darkness and the Goddess of Calamity that the demons believe in are even more evil. But Grace Day still needs to express its gratitude to them."
… Well, that seemed to be right.
Everyone looked at the Pope. The Pope thought about it carefully. It seemed that Grace Day did not specify which gods to express their gratitude to. It only said that the gods were the gods that the people of the Blessed Land believed in. So the God of Darkness was indeed included?
What the hell?
The First Priest of the Serpentis trembled and was tongue-tied. Roschinke finally looked at him with just the right amount of disgust. "If I were you, Priest … Your Excellency, I wouldn't be standing here with my mouth wide open."
"Because you have obvious bad breath."
"Pfft!" Someone couldn't help but laugh.
Although everyone did not welcome the demons, not many people welcomed the Serpentis!
They were a bunch of nouveau riche who jumped up from the bottom of the sea!
Look at their smug faces, they were really good-for-nothings!
However, there were also some who were close to the Serpentis. They were all Orcs. Two Orc Shaman priests stood directly next to the First Priest of the Serpentis. It was obvious that they were Bison Shaman. Both of them lowered their heads slightly and did not speak, but they were like the strongest bulls on the prairie. Just by standing there, they made people feel endless pressure.
Unfortunately, their pressure was too weak compared to the majority of the people present.
After the Serpentis arrived on land, they gathered some Orc tribes, but most of them were bandit groups that were not presentable. The only ones they could bring out were these two Bison Shaman.
"Ahem." Pope Decca clenched his fist and placed it by his mouth to attract everyone's attention. "Your Majesty The Demon King is too humorous. The God of Darkness is one of the Gods, and the First Priest of the Serpentis also agrees with this. Everyone, please change the topic."
This was an excuse for both sides to step down. Roschinke did not comment, but he did not say anything. The First Priest of the Serpentis laughed sinisterly. "Pope Decca is always so kind to help others. Why don't you be kinder this time and let us win?"
Pope Decca: "… …"
It was quite admirable for a person to be able to court death to this extent. _ (: 3. ∠) _
The atmosphere was very awkward.
At this moment, the cheers of young people could be heard from next door. Everyone was stunned. The Emperor of the Golden Banner finally got out of this awkward situation. As if he had found a good excuse, he ordered his servants to go next door. "Go take a look. What are those children doing?"
The Patriarch of the Serpentis snorted in his heart. Looks like Cesar and the others did a good job.
This time, the two little girls brought by the Mermaid Priestess looked young and cute, but their strength was not to be underestimated. In addition, the Mermaids had a natural ability to suppress the Sea Serpents … In order to win the first prize of the tournament, they had to do it at the banquet.
Little girls like these were thin-skinned and inexperienced. If they were embarrassed in public, they would tremble when they saw the Serpentis in the future.
Thinking of this, the First Priest of the Serpentis laughed. He thought of the two Mermaids who were slightly childish and did not even dare to fight in the arena.
As for Cesar and the others being reprimanded, it didn't matter. After all, the Serpentis were thick-skinned.
As he laughed, he looked at the Mermaid Priestess opposite him. The Mermaid Priestess was scared and wanted to run next door immediately.
The servant who went next door to understand the situation came back. His young round face was full of confusion. Under the command of the Emperor of the Golden Banner, he said, "Your Majesty, next door … the young guests at the banquet are making a scene. A few Serpentis were harassing the guests of the Mermaid Priestess. As a result, they were beaten up by a hero named Xu Jun."
The First Priest of the Serpentis didn't even have time to close his mouth before he froze.
The servant couldn't continue with what happened next. "After that, the hero Xu Jun … was surrounded by everyone …"
Even if he was just a small servant, he knew that words like "after the Serpentis were beaten up, everyone surrounded the attacker and cheered" couldn't be said directly. No matter how unpopular the Serpentis were, they were still guests. How could they directly embarrass the guests?
However, when everyone heard the cheers next door, they could guess what was going on.
The First Priest of the Serpentis guessed the beginning correctly, but not the ending. His confused old face even looked a little pitiful.
The Emperor of the Golden Banner was a little confused. He knew that Xu Jun. He seemed to be a hero who liked to cause trouble. Some young nobles hated him.
He didn't hear of him being so popular.
How could he get so much support after beating up a few people?
He couldn't help but ask, "Then what else did Xu Jun do?"
The servant's face instantly twisted. "He … he even slapped the butt of Mr. Cesar, the leader of the Serpentis warriors?
And … he even encouraged the other party to seduce him? "
What the hell was going on?
But what no one noticed was that Roshyank The Devil's face was darker than the bottom of a pot.
Xixi Demon King: Xu Jun, doing this behind my back … doesn't your conscience hurt???
Junjun the Hero: We heroes don't need a conscience ~\ (≧ ▽)/~
I didn't expect you to be such a hero!
