At the royal castle of Symphonia Kingdom, Symphonia’s King, Ryze, had a difficult look on his face. The reason for this was the information that ca from the country’s intelligence departnt.
The information spreading around was about Hydra Kingdom, and although there had been no official announcent from Hydra Kingdom as of yet, it was information that was attracting a great deal of attention.
[……Then, there’s a high probability that this is true?]
[Yes, there’s a strong possibility that the rumor that a stone monunt presented to Her Majesty Laguna by First Hero Kujou Hikari being unveiled at Hydra Kingdom’s Founding Festival is true. There’s sothing that is kept quite securely in Hydra Kingdom’s royal castle, and it’s highly likely that it’s the aforentioned stone monunt……]
[I see…… As to be expected of her. I’m not sure if I should say she’s quite shrewd or not, but she sure used sothing that could be considered forbidden……]
A stone monunt left by the First Hero still stands on the Hero’s Hill, where people from all over the world visit to pray and express their gratitude. That shows how great of an achievent the First Hero had in her journey.
As her whereabouts after the signing of the Treaty of Friendship were still unknown, there were rumors of the First Hero’s existence in this world up to this date, her probable death, and her possible return to Japan after the completion of her journey.
At the sa ti, it was also rumored that Underworld King Kuromueina and the Hero’s party might have known what happened to her, but until now, the circumstances about this matter had never been revealed.
However, information that Hydra Kingdom was going to unveil a stone monunt given to Laguna by the First Hero at their Founding Festival shocked everyone.
First of all, there’s a high degree of credibility that the aforentioned stone monunt is authentic. Laguna was a mber of the First Hero’s party and one of the world’s greatest heroes. That being the case, it’s not surprising that she received so kind of ssage from the First Hero.
However, the important question here was when said monunt was given to her. If it was at the ti of the signing of the Treaty of Friendship a thousand years ago, her having such a thing does make sense. Even still, it definitely would turn out into big news worldwide……
However, this raises questions about why any information about this monunt was not disclosed until this mont, and along with that, there was also the growing rumor that “the monunt was actually gifted only very recently”. If this were true, this could end up being evidence to support the theory that the First Hero still lives together with everyone.
And indeed, so of those holding power, including Ryze…… have witnessed the war in the God Realm revolving around the World’s Singularity, Kaito. And sighted within that battlefield at that ti was the First Hero……. Therefore, he thinks it is quite possible that the First Hero is still living quietly in this world.
(rely the possibility of a ssage from the First Hero is enough to generate this level of attention…… but when it’s confird as a fact, the level of attention their Founding Festival generates will likely surpass even that of Symphonia Kingdom and Archlesia Empire…… She’s really gone and done it.)
It’s a fact that the Six Kings and the Supre Gods are extrely high profile…… but they do show up once every 10 years for the Festival of Heroes. The opportunity to et both the Six Kings and the Supre Gods in that one place exists.
However, the First Hero, on the other hand, even though she’s been known worldwide, since the signing of the Treaty of Friendship, she had never appeared in public, and even her whereabouts are shrouded in mystery. Having the knowledge of her existence would certainly bring about a great impact to the world.
Admiring Laguna’s actions, Ryze speculated that the current vague flow of information is also part of her plans. With the current situation, with various opinions being expressed while the information remains vague, the mont when Hydra Kingdom makes its official announcent will create a significant impact and guarantee a bustling Founding Festival.
[……By implenting such a strategy, it reflects a strong sense of their confidence…… In other words, it’s almost certain to be authentic…… With considerable attention already gathering within Symphonia Kingdom, it’s essential to be prepared for an imdiate proclamation once the formal announcent from Hydra Kingdom is made.]
[Understood.]
During such a tumultuous ti when the world is buzzing with excitent, the center of attention, the First Hero…… Neun had her head slumped on a desk.
[Hahaha, so that’s why you ended up making a stone monunt huh. Seems like you also got it rough, Hikari~~]
[This isn’t so laughing matter, Hapti…… Just thinking about how this would increase attention on and strange statues of would start popping around again makes feel depressed.]
[Well, the way I see it, the sales of Hikari Manju going up is a good thing. Rather, as expected, even Laguna won’t ask for your direct appearance huh~~]
[If she had asked that, she knew I would have refused. She was very shrewd like that, and she was able to determine the line where I would compromise.]
In fact, Neun doesn’t have any intention of appearing in public any longer. Indeed, as the First Hero, the power of her words has beco quite influential, but she herself doesn’t wish for her words to have unintended consequences and impact various things.
In the first place, she set out to defeat the Demon King because she wanted to help those who had helped her, not because she wanted wealth or fa.
Hearing Neun’s words, Hapti chuckled before speaking.
[Well, since we’re here, why don’t the two of us see the festival too?]
[……I suppose so. I don’t really want to get anywhere close to the Central Plaza, but we could explore other areas’ stalls and booths.]
[It’s decided then~~]
Hearing the words Hapti spoke in a laid-back tone…… words of invitation which she could tell were intended to change her dejected mood, Neun faintly smiled.
Serious-senpai : [I see, she isn’t going to be directly attending, but is going to present them sothing…… Even so, fumu…… Neun and Hapti will participate in the Founding Festival Together. anwhile, Kaito has 2 extra seats on hand…… Oya? Oya oya?]
