Sudden!

Elsie felt an intense burning sensation on her back, as if flames were burning inside!

What are you staring at?!

Elsie slowly turned her head, the Bloodthirsty Pendant around her neck emitting a dim red light.

Her eyes suddenly turned blood red as she stared intently at the direction from which the scorching heat was emanating.

Noah Tilan!

...

Rumor has it that Tilan and Tilan had a very good relationship, and Tilan is also recognized as the most beautiful person in the hero's party.

Perhaps no one knows that one day Tilan and Tilan's casual conversation was actually about their final journey after defeating the Demon King.

“Hey, Tilan, the Nago royal family has already recognized my marriage with His Highness. At that time…” Tilan handed over a glass of wine.

“I might not be able to go.” Tilan, wearing a helmet, slowly turned his head. “I’m sorry, Tilan, I might… have to go alone.”

"W-what? Are you kidding me?" Tilan asked in surprise. "What happened between you and the Lanting royal family?"

Tilan shook his head; he chose to keep it a secret: "I can't involve my brothers."

“Brother, Tilan!” Tilan stared at his comrade: “I will complete the final journey of the legend and return home in glory.”

"If only I hadn't been buried that day..."

"Please, you must kill me!"

"You must launch a sneak attack! Don't confront me head-on!"

"You know how the Demon King died, right?"

Tilan was stunned, and he felt somewhat hesitant.

“I want to take a gamble, brother, help me.” This was the first time Tilan had ever pleaded with someone like this: “I don’t belong to this world, but that doesn’t mean I want to be a pawn.”

“I want you to live. You are my brothers.” He patted his chest, his tone sincere and charismatic.

“Tilan.” Tilan grasped the other’s hand: “You are one of our…”

"You are the only one who can break through my defenses. You only have one chance."

Although Tilan didn't quite understand, he nodded nonetheless: "And what about your descendants? They might also..."

"It's up to you, Tilan!" Tilan opened his helmet, revealing his appearance to others for the first time.

Tilan was stunned. He instantly realized that his looks were nowhere near the best. Tilan...

“Alright, brother…” Tilan raised his right hand, which was marked with flames.

He said firmly, "I swear I will kill you."

“I swear that my descendants will prevent the birth of a second Tiran.”

"I swear, if any of my descendants ever encounter someone who possesses the Tiran's Verses, as long as their bloodline is sufficient, whoever they may be, they will be qualified to draw the divine bow!"

...

Noah Tilan, descendant of a hero, young wielder of a divine artifact, activator of a sacred mark, and candidate for family head.

[Tilan Stigmata: The inherited power of the hero Tilan's bloodline, shattering darkness and commanding the power of the sun. The wielder gains an additional 30% armor penetration and spell burn damage equal to their attack power, dealing an additional 70% damage to the dark faction.]

【Tilan's Wrath (Longbow Artifact Stage 1): The inherited weapon of the hero Tilan, possessing 90% Tilan bloodline, qualified to be drawn, and has an extremely strong restraining effect on dark creatures.】

Elsie no longer knew how the remaining matches ended; it seemed that her and Noah's intimidation caused the others to give up on the subsequent matches.

Thus, they entered the final battle ahead of schedule.

"Elsie, give up, because..." Windsor was about to pull Elsie away, but before she could finish speaking, she had already headed to the battlefield.

Bogp, standing to the side, frowned, seemingly lost in thought.

Xinglan was ready to intervene and stop the two.

In the final match, Elsie faced off against Noah, but this match was meaningless, a pointless duel.

"Come up here. If you have the guts, stand on the stage and look me in the eye!" Noah said arrogantly.

[Zhi Xi easily picked up the heavy hammer... uh, the greatsword from the weapon rack.]

Okay, her rebellion was perfectly timed.

Elsie slung her greatsword over her shoulder and slowly walked onto the arena. In the distance, Noah was already extremely excited.

"Elsie! Get closer to him!" Windsor suddenly shouted from the audience.

Upon hearing this, Noah glared angrily at the stage, thinking to himself that he should have shot that arrow just now... sigh?

He stared ahead, only to find Elsie nowhere to be seen on the field. Where had she gone? Had she run away?

Well, she's only a one-year-old girl, scaring her a little won't hurt...

"My lord! Be careful!" shouted Nomu, the knight he was to be appointed, from below the stage.

This guy is really annoying, like a bug. What is he yelling about?!

etc……

Noah felt a chill run through his body, as if...

His gaze followed a shadow to the other side, where a pair of blood-red eyes stared intently at him, and at the greatsword that Elsie held high in her hand!

When did she arrive?!

This ring must be at least a hundred meters long, right? A hundred-meter sprint?! And there wasn't a sound!

Terrifying, and... dangerous!

[Just hope! Stun him with a single blow!!!]

[This is utterly ridiculous!]

The greatsword fell, and Noah had no time to dodge, so he quickly raised his divine longbow to block it...

"Bang--"

Dust and sand kicked up on the field!

[Finished and gone... huh?]

Elsie was stunned. The greatsword landed steadily on the divine longbow. It was just a wooden longbow, yet it blocked the greatsword!

"Cough..." Noah was bewildered. He knelt on one knee, his longbow successfully blocking the heavy sword.

It was a close call, and I really didn't expect that the heavy sword couldn't even scratch the longbow.

On the contrary, he felt a resonance between himself and the longbow!

“That’s right, I am… a descendant of Tilan! The inheritor of the power of the sun!” Flames erupted from Noah’s body, surging up on Elsie along with the fierce flames on his longbow.

Watch out, Zhi Xi!

Elsie quickly withdrew her greatsword and dodged the flames with a somersault, but some of it still burned her armor, causing a section of the armor to warp.

"That's right, this is a divine artifact! Praise the Tilan!" Nomu shouted for his lord, "Praise the Tilan family!!!"

"Whoosh—"

A flaming arrow pierced his chest instantly. He looked down at the expanding flames on his chest and collapsed heavily into the fire.

I never understood it, not even until my death...

Why……

Why would Noah's lord point a longbow at him?

"Ugh, what a cowardly piece of trash!" Noah glanced at Elsie, whose eyes were completely different from before, seemingly burning with flames, and a half-sun pattern had appeared on his face.

The audience was shocked, but didn't know how to refute it.

Bogp was about to speak when Xinglan stopped him: "You can't stop him. Artifacts aren't that simple."

"Let's try to save Elsie..."

At that moment, Noah shouted, "This is just the beginning!"

Noah quickly drew his bow to its full extent and aimed it at Elsie. She was no fool; she sensed a pair of deadly eyes staring at her from the shadows.

That longbow could definitely kill her!

We must... close the distance!
