The Strongest Hero, Becoming a God Through Faith

They possess superhuman strength and are fierce in battle. In team battles, they sometimes briefly enter Berserk Mode to coordinate with their teammates.

In Berserk Mode, Iliya's combat power skyrockets, and she can even surpass the Hero's combat power for a short period of time.

She was a born warrior, and it's normal that she was valued by the Hall of Heroes after her death and became a Heroic Spirit.

It's both normal and abnormal.

Amelia is not a Heroic Spirit Summoner and cannot summon Iliya.

Yes, he has summoned Heroic Spirits many times, but Iliya has never responded to his summons.

The most diligent responder to his summons is the fantasy heroine Helen, the Flame Queen, who has a cool entrance and catchphrase. "Lance, save me."

As a Heroic Spirit, how come he has never been able to summon Iliya even once?

I understand.

They looked down on him, the summoner of heroic spirits.

With Iliya's combat prowess, she is qualified to choose a Heroic Spirit Summoner.

In addition, there is another possibility: Iliya may have become the guardian spirit of a certain Heroic Spirit summoner.

They can also become contracted heroic spirits.

If you become a contracted Heroic Spirit of a Heroic Spirit Summoner, it is indeed difficult to respond to the summons of other Summoners.

Besides this, it may also be related to the identity he used when summoning the Heroic Spirit.

There are prerequisites for becoming a Heroic Spirit Summoner; if the prerequisites are not met, one cannot become a Heroic Spirit Summoner.

The first time he summoned a heroic spirit, he used the identity of Loyal Guardian of the Frontier Kingdom General guarding the border.

They have made great contributions to protecting the human world, and their achievements and deeds have been passed down.

Only then did he successfully become a Heroic Spirit Summoner and gain the qualification to summon Heroic Spirits.

The identity of "The Non-Existent Potion Master" might also be able to summon Heroic Spirits. I can try summoning a Heroic Spirit using this identity next time.

When summoning a Heroic Spirit as a human Heroic Spirit Summoner, only Heroic Spirits of the same human race can be summoned.

There is a small chance of summoning a Heroic Spirit from another race, but such Heroic Spirits will not become contracted Heroic Spirits of human Heroic Spirit Summoners.

At most, they are temporary heroic spirits.

When war breaks out between humans and other races, if a Heroic Spirit Summoner appears on the battlefield, even if they are both Heroic Spirits, they will fight to the death.

The Heroic Spirit Realm is the final destination of all Heroes, but the Heroes in the Heroic Spirit Realm should be divided into several factions.

Iliya is very powerful in combat.

Next time, let's try to summon Iliya down from the Heroic Spirit Realm.

"Do you still remember Iliya?"

"Remember."

"Oh, you remember Iliya normally. When Iliya dribbled the ball and bumped into people, you were always able to dodge in the first instant and then catch her before she fell."

"Iliya's figure, which I envied, was also ruined by your extraordinary potion."

When Amelia thinks of her former teammate, she pictured Iliya's unsteady gait.

There was also a scene where Iliya dribbled the ball and bumped into her; the bouncy texture made her incredibly envious.

She envied Iliya, Iliya envied her.

Later, Iliya somehow thought of Lance and asked Lance to prepare a potion. The potion took away her good figure. She privately asked Lance if he could prepare some extraordinary potions that could make her body develop faster. At that time, Lance said, "Maintain a normal diet. If you get enough nutrition, your body will naturally develop faster."

"Iliya became a Heroic Spirit, then it was the Hero Reg who became a god?"

"Leige's situation is rather special. Have you heard of the Domain?"

"Domain, I think I've heard of it."

He knew about domains, but very few strong individuals could create their own domains. Even many Saint-level and God-level strong individuals might not be able to create their own domains.

Those who can carve out their own domain become gods during battle, able to command whatever they desire.

Those trapped within the domain suffer greatly. Whether they can mobilize the source energy of heaven and earth is another matter. Even if they can, the source energy entering the domain might become the domain owner's energy.

That's incredible!

Listen to Amelia. Hero Reg must have carved out his own domain.

Having established a domain, even if Leige doesn't become a god, his lifespan will far exceed that of those without a domain. In fact, even a demigod might not be able to outlive a domain-wielding expert.

That's incredible! If Leige, who possesses a domain, were to condense a divine spark and ignite Divine Fire, he would at least become a lower-level god in the God Realm, and might even become a mid-level god.

Once you reach the realm of gods, it's not impossible to cultivate diligently for several thousand or ten thousand years and eventually ascend to the rank of a high-ranking god.

acid.

Is this the power of someone with Golden Fate? "Leige has carved out his own domain?"

"Yes, he created his own domain five hundred years ago. When Iliya was alive, he told Iliya some insights and precautions about creating a domain. However, Iliya never created her own domain before she died."

When I last saw him, he told me about his insights on opening up new domains and some things to keep in mind. Unfortunately, I still haven't been able to find the "seed" needed for opening up new domains.

"But it doesn't matter. I have no obsession with becoming a god. As an elf, my lifespan far exceeds that of humans; living for two or three thousand years is no problem."

While speaking, Amelia kept observing Lance's expression. Hearing that his teammate had created a [Domain], Lance must be envious and surprised, right?

Moreover, she also told Lance that she had gained some insights, conditions, and precautions from the Hero Reg when opening up a new territory.

As a Potion Master and Beast Tamer, Lance must also want to carve out his own niche, right?

Having this thought will lead to having desires.

Our attitude toward her should change.

She can regain her former sense of superiority and easily control Lance now.

He might even turn the tables and rub Lance's head with his hands.

Lance's touch on her head, the way he looked at her, and her reaction were all things she couldn't quite accept.

Amelia was disappointed. Lance's reaction was no different from before; his reaction when he heard that Iliya had become a Heroic Spirit was even stronger than this.

For a moment, a strange look appeared in Lance's eyes, as if it were envy, but also as if it wasn't.

He didn't even ask her for her insights, conditions, and precautions when Leige opened up the territory.

Hateful!

As a human being, wouldn't he want to carve out his own territory?

Don't want to become a "God Walking Among Mortals"? Those who create their own domains are also known as "God Walking Among Mortals".

Those who have just opened up a domain certainly do not deserve this title, but those who have developed their domains absolutely deserve it.

Because in their realm, they are gods.

"Do you want the insights that the Hero Reg gained from opening up a new realm? If you do, just tell me and I'll tell you."

"There's no need for that. Leige's vision is bigger than I imagined. With such vision, he has achieved such success. He deserves the position of captain of the [Radiant Sun] squad."

Other powerful individuals who have pioneered new domains might not be willing to share their insights and the conditions for pioneering a domain with their former teammates.

Leige's ability to achieve this was beyond his imagination.

His perspective is slightly broader than his.

After all, when he sacrificed himself, he took his teammates' gold coins, but he didn't take those valuable items with him.

Thinking about it that way, he does have a conscience.

No, he also contributed a lot to the team without his knowledge: strengthening potions, potions to cure hidden ailments, potions to enhance their abilities, and other miscellaneous potions. He gave a lot. What's wrong with taking a few gold coins when he sacrificed himself? He's a dragon. Would he be worthy of his status if he didn't take any gold coins? "Something's not right. You weren't like this a thousand years ago. Back then, when you saw Iliya's prowess in battle, after the battle, you would have gone to Iliya's side, taken a small hammer, and asked Iliya to teach you some hammer techniques."

Seeing my superb archery skills, they will take the initiative to find me and ask me to teach them archery. When they see the Hero Reg practicing swordsmanship, they will also ask Leige to teach them a few moves.

Your catchphrase back then was. "I really envy you guys, I wish I could be as strong as you. Something's not right. Something's not right. Something's not right."

Finally, Amelia began to mutter to herself.

She then thought of some strange things that happened a thousand years ago, such as Lance seeking out them to learn hammer techniques, archery, and swordsmanship.

It always seemed like Lance sought them out to learn from them shortly after a battle.

He sought out Iliya to learn hammer techniques, and after a period of time, Iliya's hammer techniques became noticeably more advanced.

He sought her out to learn archery, and after a period of time, her archery skills improved considerably.

He sought out Leige to learn swordsmanship, and after a period of time, Leige's swordsmanship improved considerably, and he even grasped the essence of swordsmanship.

Then, after the next battle, Lance would grin and approach them, saying, "I really envy you guys. It feels like your strength is improving every day."

"Take me with you guys, I'm determined to learn a trick or two from you this time." They were all teammates, and they couldn't very well refuse Lance, especially since Lance was so good at praising people.

The honest, simple-minded, and taciturn Lance and his companions must have been speaking from the bottom of their hearts.

At least back then, that's what they all thought.

They would teach Lance, and then the next time they went out on a mission, they would find that their strength had improved slightly. This cycle would repeat itself every now and then. Amelia's gaze towards Lance changed.

Was it him? Did their strength increase because of this guy? Impossible.

No matter how you look at it, their improvement in strength has nothing to do with Lance.

At that time, Lance knew nothing except how to concoct and mix potions.

His identity Beast Tamer was already surprising to her. If this guy also knew hammer techniques, archery, and swordsmanship, was he even human?

"A monster, right? Especially since this guy can enhance their strength without them even noticing. To do that, just how strong was Lance a thousand years ago? "Amelia was filled with doubt and surprise.

The things she imagined were a little frightening.

Not only is his honesty and naivety an act, but he can also perfectly conceal his true strength so that they can't detect it at all?

That's an exaggeration.

I can't keep letting my mind wander.

If she keeps letting her imagination run wild, Lance will really become a monster in her mind.

Perhaps we should call upon his former teammates and let them meet Lance a thousand years in the future.

One person's plan is short-sighted, but two people's plans are long-sighted.

These were the words that Lance said back then.

If Lance really is some kind of monster, with their teammates' current strength, they should be able to discover something.

"I'm done playing. I'm hungry. I'm going to eat. You guys can play by yourselves."

The young dragon trotted up to the evil dragon. "Lance, I'm hungry. Shall we go eat?"

The young dragon glanced at the female elf staring at the evil dragon. The way she looked at the dragon didn't seem like a girlfriend looking at a potential partner. If she knew the dragon, and wasn't his girlfriend, then was she a friend? "Hungry? Shall we go home and cook? Or find a restaurant to eat at?"

"Let's go home and cook, it'll save money. I'll help you; you cook, I'll wash the vegetables. And I still want roasted animal leg."

She and the dragon had been to the restaurant in Saint Blue City a few times. The food was quite good. However, whenever they saw that the restaurant was frequented by the Viscount and His Little Dragon Highness, they were never charged. They would even give them fruit and Fruit Wine.

After a few times, the dragon stopped coming to Saint Blue City for meals, probably because he didn't want to keep eating free dinners, lunches, and breakfasts. "Okay, it's cool today, let's have Mutton Soup tonight."

"Shall we go prepare the ingredients now?"

"Can."

Lance removed the knitted hat from the baby dragon's head, brushed off the snow, and put it on the baby dragon before leading it away from the square to prepare food.

???

Amelia watched Lance leave, chatting and laughing with Little Dragon Highness, a look of bewilderment in her eyes.

And her?

Has Lance forgotten about her?

They were teammates a thousand years ago, how could he just forget them like that? Watching Lance's retreating figure, Amelia bit her lip. Too much time had passed. Lance had probably almost forgotten their friendship from back then.

When he first saw himself, it took him a long time to remember.

Let's end our first encounter after a thousand years of fading feelings in this way for now.

When her teammates are all here, will she pay a visit to this friend from a thousand years ago?

Why did Lance stop? And why did he turn around to look at her?

"What are you standing there for? Go home and eat."

"Time to go home for dinner." Upon hearing these five words, Amelia's nose suddenly stung with tears. That wretched Lance was much more annoying than he was a thousand years ago.

The weather was cold, and her nose felt sore from the cold.

"You're walking too fast, wait for me."

Amelia jogged after him.

"Xiaolong is your daughter?"

"Well, barring any unforeseen circumstances, she will inherit the vast majority of my estate."

The young dragon exhaled a puff of white breath, looked up, and smiled at Amelia.

She wouldn't inherit a single penny of the dragon's legacy.

"Xiaolong is lucky. She probably doesn't know how powerful your former teammates are now. Even if you're gone one day, you don't have to worry about Xiaolong being bullied. With us here, we dare to beat anyone who bullies Xiaolong until they can't take care of themselves."

Amelia chatted idly with Lance, occasionally striking up a conversation with Little Dragon.

When will the dragon be gone? I reckon even after you're gone, the dragon will still be alive and kicking. And even if the dragon really is gone one day and goes to hell, that's even more incredible; he'll become the Grim Reaper.

The position of Grim Reaper.

It is a clergy position.

When a dragon dies, that's not called death; that's called becoming a god.

"My Amelia, an elf. I used to be Lance's teammate. Back then, Lance was honest, simple, and taciturn, completely different from how he is now."

Honest and simple-minded?

Quiet and reserved?

Elf sister, are you sure you're describing the dragon Lance? Not a dwarf?

"My name is Lucia. I was a baby dragon that Lance found on his way home and I'm currently being raised by Lance. Sister Amelia, when did you become Lance's teammate? He rarely talks to me about his past."

"His teammate from a thousand years ago, who was the strongest hero's teammate, didn't he mention this to you?"

"No."

"Lance stronger? Or is the strongest hero stronger?"

"Of course, it's the strongest warrior. The strongest warrior is a powerful figure who has opened up a domain. If he knew that Lance was still alive and had adopted a little dragon as his daughter, he would definitely come to Saint Lance."

A powerful figure who has carved out a domain? What is a domain? I don't know.

Has the dragon carved out its own domain? "Can a powerful being who has carved out a domain defeat a dragon?"

"Able."

"Can we defeat a dragon wielding a divine artifact?"

"That depends on what level of artifact the dragon possesses."

"Oh, back then, was the hero the captain? Or was Lance the captain?"

"Brave one, Lance was just a Potion Master back then, and he couldn't command respect as captain."

The young dragon nodded.

The dragon is low-key and doesn't like to show off.

If any other dragon had Lance's abilities, their deeds would likely have spanned over a thousand years of human history.

It's not that the dragon lacks the strength to be captain; it's that the dragon doesn't want to be captain.

It seems the elf sister in front of me still doesn't know how powerful the evil dragon is.

wrong.

Amelia probably never even saw the dragon's true form, and always thought the dragon was human.

Even the Golden Dragon and the Lightning Dragon couldn't see through the dragon's Transformation Technique, so the elf before them should be even less able to see through it.

"Little Dragon, don't be unconvinced. Our team leader is not only a domain expert, but also a demigod who ascended to godhood through faith. Have you heard of that?"
