Afterward, they told the Prophet of their resolve.
Wenren Sheng nodded. "That's right. Only by accumulating more strength can you defeat the Demon King."
"Looks like you got it right this time."
"This is true resolve."
After hearing this, the Heroes were speechless for a moment.
"You should have said so earlier. If you had, would we have taken so many detours?"
Wenren Sheng shook his head. "Even if I had told you, you wouldn't have listened. People are always like this. Unless they bang their heads themselves, they don't know it hurts."
"Unless they suffer themselves, they don't know to change."
The Heroes silently kept those words in mind.

They found a way to arm the Red Dragon.

the defending Soldiers immediately fled in defeat.
Only a handful of Knights bravely charged.
Then the kind Red Dragon captured them.
It ordered them to redeem themselves with pork chops.
They said this insulted
