The news instantly got everyone's attention, and they rushed to fight over the spyglass to see if what he said was true. Eventually, everyone had been convinced that the 'heroes' had left, leaving the city wrecked and abandoned. It was a bitter pill to swallow, but they hadn't seen any other option once they heard about the demon attack and the news of the 'heroes' coming.No one had wanted to get into the middle of that. They had heard plenty of horror stories involving the 'heroes' and demons over the past year. There was no way they could put their faith in the new 'heroes'. They were very different from what they had expected when they heard they were being summoned, and it left everyone disgruntled.Why were they the unfortunate ones to receive defective 'heroes'? The 'heroes' should be doing everything in their power to kill the demons for them, not roll over and die the moment they encounter one or cause trouble for the people. No, there was no way they could have stayed in the

[Quest][Demon Attack on Gartlev][You have helped protect the town within twelve days from the demon attack.][Quest Reward][You will be given 10 gold.][You may select one of the following Rare items.]"Whoa, we really speedran this quest," Chris said as he stared at the message from the system."No kidding. I thought for sure we would be cutting it close again," Bobby said as he went to retrieve his arrows.Even though the distance between Estantor and Gartlev was shorter than when they had to travel to Estantor from Sylgen, they had still believed they would encounter a similar situation as in the last quest. However, not only had they encountered fewer demons during the trip, but the weather had been on their side for once, so they were able to reach their destination with a day to spare."I'm glad the people were more willing to listen," Grace said as she smiled. "They were really helpful.""That's true," Luke conceded as he nodded his head toward her. "It was good that the peo

The demon king's words still echoed in Luke's mind as he cut off the legs of the demon right in front of him. He was right about how he still hadn't worked on the quests he had received from the demon's system. Well, it wasn't completely for lack of trying. One quest had a time limit of one year and required him to return to the capital to accomplish it.Though the quest stated kingdom, the only way he could get his revenge was to go back to the capital and deal with the princess and the others. As for the other two quests, he hadn't had any idea on how to accomplish them without compromising the other quests he had to do. Building a demon army would go against the quest that required him to deal with the demons.The same could be said about the quest to deal with the humans. It obviously wanted him to either kill or torture them, which would go against what the angels and the system wanted. Once he did, he would immediately be either heavily monitored or outright targeted. He would o

 "Well, that was close," Chris said as they paused to catch their breath. Tracy immediately turned on him and demanded, "What do you mean that was close? Where were you, and what took you so long?" Chris held his arms up in surrender as he backed away and let Bobby take over. "We hit a bit of a snag." Violet nodded her head. "We noticed." "Seriosuly, we were going along with plan A when things started to get dicey," Chris said as he waved his arms around. "Then when we tried to go with plan B, we couldn't because there were too many demons. Theodore really saved us." That was concerning, but nothing Luke and the others didn't realize right away. They had already known something was up. However, it was strange why the trio wer
