The Birth of Queen Victoria Anna

During the great war, a group of Third Braves hid under black robes, watching the battle from afar.

The leader, Priest Marin, was not disguised.

The strength of this group could not directly change the battlefield, but they could be the last straw that breaks the camel's back.

The Delinquent Brave, Aida Suzuki, who had been missing for a long time, now stood silently in his black robe, his expression completely devoid of the arrogance he once had towards everyone.

"Priest, aren't we going to make a move yet?"

After Chen Yi finished dealing with the Mage Association, other battlefields would also be decided soon.

Marin paused, then shook his head, "Let's see."

They were merely opportunists, siding with whoever won.

Once they chose incorrectly, not only would their years of effort be wasted, but their lives would also be in danger.

The Divine Weapons of the other three Braves were in Marin's hands; these were his true bargaining chips.

Marin's original plan was to secretly obtain a liberated Divine Weapon and give it to Aida Suzuki for an upgrade.

However, he hadn't expected that the Braves would be surrounded by Imperial forces. With a single command from the King, these Braves died without any resistance.

What was laughable was that the Sword Brave, Bow Brave, and Night Brave all died in their beds.

What Marin hadn't expected even more was that the Imperial forces didn't take the Divine Weapons, as if they were specifically left for him.

No one knew how he felt at that moment.

He could only kneel on the ground, kowtowing heavily towards the Royal Court, until the King's envoy came with a message.

Eagle Eye Technique reflected the distant battlefield, and Marin couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The reason he hadn't made a move wasn't that the time wasn't right, but that he hadn't received the King's signal.

He... didn't dare to act!

Princess Anna led the soldiers, killing all the Demonic Beasts in the Royal Court, and was now parading through the streets with the corpses of the Demon Race.

"Princess Anna..."

"Princess Anna!"

"Long live the Empire! Long live Princess Anna!"

The civilians in the areas they passed cheered. They cheered for Princess Anna, for the Empire, for humanity, and for their survival.

The soldiers, unaware of the full plan, held their heads high, welcoming the glory that belonged to heroes.

Blood flowed from the demonic beasts' corpses. Instead of fear or disgust, people cheered. Children even picked up stones and hurled them at the corpses.

Finally, Princess Anna arrived with soldiers beside the church, which had become a ruin.

How could the people in the church not hear the sky-high cheers? The Demon King gritted his teeth, enduring Ilios's attack, and crashed into the church's last remaining gate with her.

The Knight had already vanished. Facing an attack that would harm the enemy by 200 while costing oneself 1000, Ilios had no other options.

With a loud boom, both of them landed on the street.

The church's final facade collapsed with a roar.

Seeing the Demon King with his strangely colored human skin, gasps repeatedly came from the civilians. Some recognized the Demon King.

"This is?"

"It's definitely him, he's the Demon King!"

"There's a record of this in the history books. Demon Kings have black skin, surrounded by ominous black qi. Their races are not unique, but each appearance brings unprecedented disaster to humankind."

"And the other one is... Bishop Ilios?"

Ilios realized this was an opportunity. A golden shockwave blasted towards the Demon King, forcing him to dodge and preventing him from speaking.

"Believers, I must tell you something..."

"All troops, form ranks!"

Ilios's words were interrupted by Anna. The soldiers, having received the command, stepped forward.

The soldiers, who had just finished fighting, were filled with fatigue, but their aura was full of killing intent!

Princess Anna rode to the very front: "My subjects, rest assured, the Empire will protect you!"

No one noticed Princess Anna's spear-holding hand trembling.

Ilios was astonished. Weren't all these events caused by the Empire?

"Believers, don't be deceived! The Empire is the true culprit, and the Demon King's identity is the King of this generation!"

However, no matter how much she appealed, the civilians just watched Anna, wondering why Princess Anna hadn't ordered an attack on the Demon King.

Faith is not a solid thing; once broken, it's hard to repair.

And humans particularly believe what they see with their own eyes. This is the King? Don't be ridiculous. Everyone knows the Empire's King is so fat he can't move.

Ilios, who hadn't shown a panicked expression throughout the battle until now, now appeared flustered: "Look closely, he really is your King."

"He looks so similar to Anna, don't you suspect anything?"

"The obese appearance before was just a disguise!"

A spear blocked Ilus.

Princess Anna's expression was blank: "Alright Bishop Ilus! Please maintain aristocratic etiquette!"

"You might be acting so out of sorts due to the hero's defeat and the church's loss."

"But don't worry, the empire is now capable of protecting its subjects."

"I, Anna, swear in the name of the Veselia family!"

The civilians who followed cheered for the empire and Princess Anna.

The King, who was increasingly affected by the Black Energy in the distance, felt some relief at this moment. Wasn't this the scene he had planned for his entire life?

All that was left was for him to personally die at Anna's hands to bring his plan to a complete close.

The King gave the Black Robe wearer in the distance a look. Marin bowed respectfully. Even facing the dying King, he couldn't muster any other thoughts.

Chen Yi and the Fire Dragon stood on a tall building nearby, eating and watching the father and daughter 'play' below.

As for the mages from the Mage Association?

They decided to join them below and generously contributed a few Green Quality equipment to Chen Yi.

It wasn't that no soldiers noticed Chen Yi, but they were held back by other soldiers who had participated in the battle.

"We meet again, Priest Marin."

Marin, who appeared at some unknown time, stood beside Chen Yi and smiled obsequiously. As long as Chen Yi didn't interfere, everything would be fine.

"Healing Hero, you jest. Do you have any plans for the future?"

Chen Yi glanced at him with boredom. A few months ago, he was the one trembling, but now Marin had changed.

This was power!

The Fire Dragon swallowed the piece of meat in two bites, then nudged Chen Yi, indicating it wanted more.

Chen Yi patted the Fire Dragon, telling it to eat more gracefully. After all, she was a Female Fire Dragon: "Of course, I'm preparing to go back. This isn't my world."

Marin's heart relaxed. This person was not someone ordinary people could afford to offend.

He had experienced it before. The Healing Hero was indeed a mage below Tier 2, but his combat power was no less than that of a Tier 2.

If this person had any other ideas, he would probably be the first to die.

The Demon King and Princess Anna fought while moving their battlefield, quickly distancing themselves from the others.

Before Anna could say anything.

The Demon King, suppressing dark energy to maintain his sanity, actively welcomed the spear.

The spear pierced his heart.

The originally active dark energy began to slowly dissipate after losing its vessel.

Black smoke rose from the King, his dark skin revealing his original skin tone as if fading.

Anna's body trembled uncontrollably, showing the fragility of a young girl at this moment.

Even though she had prepared herself mentally, the moment she personally killed her Father King, she still couldn't accept it.

The King, in his final moments, wiped away Anna's tears. This was the burden that the children of the Vesilia family had to bear, but unfortunately, he could no longer teach Anna to become a qualified Queen.

Just then, scorching flames ignited on the King's body, and his hands quickly fell.

Anna, who was crying a moment ago, scanned her surroundings with murderous intent, but no one was nearby, nor was there any Elemental Attack from a Mage.

She could only attribute this to the strangeness of the dark energy.

Flames continued to burn on the King's body, and the black smoke became even thicker, as if cleansing the sins on his body.

When Anna walked out, she was already the Queen of the Empire.

"The Demon King has been slain by me, Vesilia Anna! Rejoice, my subjects!"

Her gaze swept over Chen Yi on the rooftop. Noticing Marin shake his head, she dismissed the suspicion in her heart.

Little did she know that Chen Yi was smiling as he looked at his panel.

[Ignite dealt 10 damage to 'Demon King'] [Ignite dealt 10 damage to 'Demon King'] EXP +18000 [Congratulations on leveling up to LV17]

It was a pity that most of the damage wasn't dealt by him, so he only received a small portion of the experience.

As for what the Demon King would drop after death, Chen Yi didn't care. The drop rate for bosses killed alongside non-Players was very low.

Afterward, Chen Yi looked at the dazed Iris and shook his head. The 1 million gold coins they had agreed on earlier would likely not be recovered.

The church was basically destroyed, and the gold coins needed for reconstruction were astronomical. Asking her for money now would probably make her fight him to the death.

The idea of pressuring Iris along with Anna flashed through his mind but was quickly discarded. If his strength wasn't enough, he shouldn't be thinking about such things.

He couldn't get carried away just because of Marin's attitude.

Chen Yi always remembered that the difference between before and after breaking through 50 attribute points was like night and day.

After greeting Marin, Chen Yi left this World under his gaze.

However, Chen Yi didn't know that the moment he left this World, time froze.

Birds stopped in mid-air, ripples in the water ceased to spread; everything in this World was put on pause.

The Game World, after obtaining the World Source, finally began to interfere with this World.

[Generating Instance...]

[World Name: Hero War World]

[Recommended Player Level...LV15-LV19]

[Player Count: 30]

[Execution Commencing]

Time in this World began to flow backward, and the speed of this reversal continued to accelerate, quickly arriving at the day the heroes were summoned.

"Oh, welcome, heroes. I am Priest Cross Marin. You can just call me Marin."

Four players on the summoning array were repeatedly recalling memories. Which World was this?

The remaining 26 players were scattered across the Mage Association, the Church, and the Empire, with simple memories implanted.

"Is this a Player vs. World scenario this time?"

"I've decided to join the Empire. It's not because Miss Anna is good-looking, but mainly because I feel I'm suited to be an Imperial citizen."

"Heh, ignorant! Do you know the beauty of Bishop Iris of the Church..."

"No one goes to the Mage Association!"

"Why am I seeing a Purple Weapon but it shows I can't take it out of the World!!!"
