2025-03-22 00:41:22Hendrik floated calmly in the air, while Tiana, Princess Selena, and her advisor rode atop Tedi, the massive bear whose steps shook the ground beneath them. After several hours of travel, they arrived at the gates of the Skarvlad Kingdom. The gates were now covered in thick layers of ice, and a biting gust of snowy wind struck their faces. Strangely, it wasn’t winter.
Hendrik narrowed his eyes at the scene before him.
“Haaah… The kingdom is encased in ice. That hero must be incredibly powerful—strong enough to change the entire climate,” he muttered under his breath.Tiana glanced briefly at Hendrik before issuing a command.
“Let’s move. We mustn’t waste any more time.”They stepped through the frozen gates, each of Tedi’s steps sending a crackling sound across the ice-covered ground. What awaited them beyond the gate was a horrifying sight. The homes of nobles and commoners had collapsed beneath layers of snow and ice. Shards of ice sculptures—revealed to be the frozen remains of people—were scattered across the roads. The air was so cold it pierced their bones, amplifying the eerie silence that hung over the kingdom.
Princess Selena looked around, eyes shimmering with tears.
“There’s nothing left... It’s all been destroyed.” She lowered her head, trying to hold back her tears, but suddenly let out a small sneeze. “Haa...chuu!”The advisor quickly chanted a minor spell to shield her from the cold.
“Forgive me, Princess. My cold resistance magic isn’t strong enough... Let me try again.”A thin layer of warmth enveloped Selena’s body. She exhaled softly in relief.
“Better now?” the advisor asked gently.Selena gave a faint smile, though her face was still heavy with sorrow.
“Thank you, Advisor.”Hendrik descended, his eyes scanning their surroundings.
“We must stay alert. It’s too quiet here. If the Ice Hero is still around, we might face him sooner than expected.”Tiana nodded, gripping her bow tighter.
“You’re right. We don’t know what’s hiding beneath this snow. Let’s head to the royal armory before things get worse.”“I’m going to the arena. You go to the armory,” Princess Selena interjected, dismounting from Tedi and staring coldly at Tiana and the advisor.
Tiana gasped and quickly protested.
“No, Princess! We must go to the arena together. It’s far too dangerous for you to go alone!”“Are you sure you can handle whatever is waiting there, Your Highness?” the advisor added with concern.
Selena hesitated for a moment before nodding slowly. Determination burned in her eyes, though a hint of doubt still lingered in her gaze. Hendrik stood silently, watching her with quiet sympathy.
After a moment of tense discussion, they finally agreed to go to the arena together. The path there wasn’t far, but the frigid atmosphere and the oppressive silence made the journey feel heavy and daunting.
When they reached the arena gates, Hendrik gently landed in front of the massive doors, now sealed in layers of ice. He stared at the arena, a distant look in his eyes, haunted by memories of the battles fought within.
“Hah... Are you remembering our battle?” Tiana teased, trying to break the silence.
Hendrik glanced at her with a faint smirk.
“Yes. I remember. You lost that day—even though you ganged up on me.”Tiana’s eyes flared with annoyance.
“What did you just say?” she snapped, leaping off Tedi with fiery steps.Princess Selena and the advisor followed behind, trying to ease the tension.
“Please, Lady Tiana,” the advisor said calmly, hoping to prevent further escalation.Tiana sighed in frustration and turned her face away.
“Tch... Tedi, stay here.” She gently patted her massive familiar before heading toward the arena with the others.In front of the frozen arena gate, Hendrik paused, his eyes fixed on the towering doors that seemed to freeze even his memories. After a heavy breath, he stepped forward, and the others followed close behind.
Each step they took inside the arena deepened the unsettling silence. Cold wind whispered through the empty stands, once filled with cheering crowds. Hendrik, who had remained composed until now, suddenly froze. His eyes widened in horror at the scene before him.
The grand arena, once a stage of glory and battle, was now a desolate tomb. In the center, the body of King Skarvlad knelt, frozen in place, impaled by a towering ice spear—like an eternal sculpture of tragedy.
Seeing Hendrik’s stunned expression, Princess Selena rushed forward and saw the horrific sight for herself.
“Father...! Nooooo!” she screamed, her voice breaking with anguish. Tears poured down her face as she ran toward the frozen figure of her father.
Hearing her cry, Tiana and the advisor hastened after her.
“Princess! What happened?” Tiana shouted, racing forward.
“Your Highness!” the advisor called out, equally distressed.
As they arrived, both stopped dead in their tracks, breath caught in their throats at the dreadful sight.
Beside the frozen king, Miranda—one of the famed members of The Ranger, known for her defense magic—was also frozen solid. Her hand was outstretched, as though trying to reach Diana, her dear friend, whose shattered icy remains lay scattered across the arena floor.
Tiana stood frozen, just like the icy world around her.
“N-no...” she whispered in despair, her voice caught in a silent cry of pain and disbelief.Princess Selena clung to her father’s frozen body, her tears dripping onto the icy floor.
“Father... please wake up... it’s me, Selena... please, open your eyes…”Hendrik stood behind them, eyes locked on the haunting scene.
“Horrible... So cruel... I can’t imagine how broken their hearts must be,” he murmured with deep empathy.Suddenly, Princess Selena lifted her tear-streaked face. Her voice trembled, but there was resolve in her eyes. Then, she began to sing—a soft, trembling tune:
“Father… why did all this happen…? Do you remember this song? The one mother used to sing when I was just a child…”
Her voice echoed through the silent arena, piercing the cold and the grief. Hendrik listened carefully, and somehow, the melody stirred something within him—a memory etched deep within his soul. Without realizing it, he began to sing alongside her, his voice harmonizing with hers.
Their voices blended beautifully, resonating across the frozen arena. As they sang, a radiant golden-blue aura emerged from Hendrik’s body, shimmering softly. Musical notes—symbols of heroism—floated around him, glowing brightly, dancing in harmony with the song.
Their melody touched every heart in the arena. Tiana, who had been frozen in sorrow, felt warmth and peace seep into her soul. The advisor, usually stoic and rational, wiped away tears moved by the sheer beauty of the song.
Hendrik’s aura intensified, enveloping the entire arena, and spreading across the entire kingdom. Slowly, the ice encasing the people and creatures of Skarvlad began to dissolve into snowflakes. From the melting shards, glowing spirits emerged, drifting like starlight into the sky—finding peace.
King Skarvlad’s spirit rose from his frozen body and gently approached Princess Selena. She wept harder as she felt his warm embrace for the final time.
“My daughter… you’ve made me proud. Forgive me… for not being able to protect you…” the king’s voice echoed gently within her heart.
He pulled away, waving his final farewell as his spirit ascended. Before disappearing, he turned to Hendrik and smiled.
“Hmm… forgive me for what happened in the past, young man. And… thank you.”Hendrik nodded, tears streaming down his face, waving in return with a bittersweet smile.
Elsewhere, the spirits of Miranda and Diana appeared, approaching Tiana, who still stood stunned. With warm smiles, they embraced her gently, as if to pass on their love and final farewell.
“We’re always with you, Tiana. Never give up,” Miranda whispered softly.

After a while, they, too, drifted into the sky, leaving behind a warmth that lingered in Tiana’s heart.The song finally came to a stop, leaving a profound silence in the arena. Selena gazed toward the heavens, watching the spirits vanish behind the light. She held Hendrik’s hand, her voice trembling.“Thank you... You’ve given us peace amidst this destruction.”Hendrik nodded slowly, his eyes fixed on the sky.---Hendrik stood before them, his face filled with hesitation.“I want to be honest... I’m not sure I want to help you. Are you truly certain about seeking revenge after seeing all of this?”Tiana stepped forward abruptly, eyes blazing with fury.“Why?! Why are you saying that? If you’re afraid, then leave! We don’t need cowards like you!”Princess Selena raised her hand to stop Tiana, then spoke gently but firmly.“He’s right... this hero.”She turned to Hendrik.“What’s your name?”“My name is Hendrik,” he replied briefly.“Yes, Hendrik...

The biting wind cut through his skin, but he didn’t care.Thoughts of his late mother haunted every corner of his mind, suffocating his chest with unbearable guilt. He gazed down at the city lights, shimmering like dead stars in a sea of darkness.“It’s finally over,” he murmured softly.His hands trembled as he wiped away the relentless stream of tears. He took a step forward, half of his body already past the edge.But before he could surrender himself to the void, a blinding flash of light tore through the sky. A deafening explosion roared like a thousand thunders striking at once. His body jerked backward, and he collapsed onto the rooftop, gasping for breath.“WHAT WAS THAT?!” he shouted, staring upwards.The night sky had split open.

There Are No Heroes 2 Unexpected attack.
Ariel scanned his surroundings, his eyes sweeping over the scattered debris. What was once a grand city had been reduced to ruins—mere remnants of a life shattered by war. "Look at this… We've really been reincarnated into this world," he murmured, his voice calm yet heavy with emotion."But…" Luna’s gaze lingered on the lifeless bodies of soldiers strewn across the battlefield, her expression filled with deep sorrow. "It looks like a terrible disaster just happened here. A war that brought nothing but destruction."Hendrik followed their line of sight. His heart sank at the sight of the fallen soldiers—some clad in torn armor, their blood dried on the ground. He held his breath, trying not to let the nausea take over.Blazz, seemingly unfazed by the gruesome scene, casually patted Ariel on the shoulder. "Oh, come on! The important thing is that we’ve got superpowers now! Wohoho! And we managed to save this guy!" He pointed at Hendrik with his index finger. "By the way, what was your

Skarvlad was one of the frontline villages, known for its brutality and unwavering loyalty to King Hrodvaldan.A group of royal soldiers arrived at the village, bearing strict orders. "King Hrodvaldan wishes to meet the foreigner. Bring him to the palace."Kragor, the leader of Skarvlad, hesitated to hand Hendrik over. A sense of suspicion grew within him—why would King Hrodvaldan suddenly take interest in an outsider?"The King has never cared about outsiders before. Why is he so interested in this wanderer?" Kragor muttered as he observed Hendrik closely.Among the warriors of Skarvlad, one man, Tharok, felt particularly insulted. He was one of the village’s most loyal and fearsome fighters, yet the King's attention was on this weak stranger."You don’t deserve to live, outsider," Tharok whispered coldly, his gaze filled with contempt as they prepared to leave for the palace.Some villagers be

However, I am not yet convinced that you are worthy of becoming part of this kingdom. I want to see your abilities against my finest warriors."A massive door on the side of the arena creaked open, and three women stepped forward with confident strides.

Each had a unique specialty—an archer with deadly precision, a shield bearer with unshakable defense, and a swordswoman with blinding speed and accuracy."Now, face them," the king declared coldly."Your Majesty," one of his advisors whispered, "I fear he is not strong enough to fight them.

"Your Majesty, several nations have already fallen under the control of such heroes. If he harbors the same intentions, we face a grave threat."The King pondered for a moment before raising his hand. "He is different. I believe we can turn him into a weapon against those fallen heroes.

What is your purpose here?"The Ice Hero gave a faint smile, his face exuding a chilling confidence. He took steady steps forward, each footprint leaving behind a gleaming trail of ice. "I just wanted to confirm whether the rumors were true—that you have found a new hero from another world."Sensing the threat, the palace soldiers began to move, surrounding the mysterious intruder. However, with a single wave of his hand, towering pillars of ice erupted from the ground, trapping them in place."Don't bother. I'm not here for war, just a conversation," he said casually, though an unmistakable threat lingered beneath his words.King Skarvlad remained firm. "What business is it of yours if I meet a new hero?

His eyes darted around frantically, searching for the true Ice Hero.A chilling laugh suddenly echoed through the arena, followed by a raging snowstorm.

9 Hendrik and Princess Selena: A Fateful Encounter
The advisor carefully observed Hendrik. The man floated in the air, showing no signs of hostility."Eh, wait, Lady Tiana. I don't think he means any harm. Besides, what reason would he have for revenge?"However, Tiana did not lower her bow. "Hah, don’t hesitate! Wake the Princess and leave immediately! I’m afraid he holds a grudge against the Princess because the King treated him like a mere plaything in the past."Upon hearing the word "hero," Princess Selena immediately woke up. Her eyes narrowed as she gazed at the sky."Hah? Where is this hero? If he’s the Ice Hero, I’ll crush him right now!"The advisor approached Princess Selena, speaking in a calm tone. "Relax, Princess. He’s not the Ice Hero but another hero from another world, found in a small village. However, our late King treated him poorly back then."Selena listened with a curious expression. "What exactly did my father do to this hero?" she asked, her voice softer but filled with intrigue.Tiana didn’t wait for an answ

The guards dared not resist. They could only watch as Tiana lifted the unconscious Princess Selena into her arms. With swift movements, she mounted the massive bear alongside the advisor."Forgive us, but this was the king’s final command to me—the last remaining member of the elite Rangers," Tiana murmured before her familiar turned and carried them away from the kingdom, now engulfed in destruction.The night grew deeper, the cool wind carrying the scent of damp grass. Beneath the luminous full moon, the advisor busied himself stirring a simple soup over a small campfire, while Tiana absentmindedly added more firewood, her expression heavy with thought.Not far from them, Princess Selena lay atop the soft fur of the giant bear. Her small frame seemed at ease, though her consciousness slowly drifted back from slumber.Gradually, her eyes fluttered open. She blinked a few times, taking in her unfamiliar yet oddly comforting surroundings."Where… am I? Eh… Tiana… Advisor… and this is s
