Behind the heroes, there are all dead bones.

Garni was taken on the horse by Sesi. To be precise, because he couldn't ride a horse, he was tied firmly by Sesi. He had only time to ask: "Where are you going to take me?" "Satisfied your wish and become a hero." Sesi's smile was dazzling, and shining with the sun. Garni was dazzled for a moment, and when he realized that he had already been tied to the horse. "Can't we take the car?" Garni wailed. Sesi looked innocent: "Didn't I say it? This time we go to the imperial capital, you pay the money."

"Don't I have no money!!" He really has no money. All the money is enough to save money until graduation, but because Blackstone College does not charge food and board fees.

Sesie patted his head and leaned into his ear and said, "So, you have to work hard. If you save the world this time, the king will definitely reward you. In this way, we will have money back." "Ah? King? Will this starting point be too high? Should we start from small things first? For example, dealing with robbers or something..." Gano was obviously scared. He had never seen any big man-to prevent this stupid boy from accidentally leaking the secret. Lei Lang and the others did not tell him their true identity. Seeing the king all at once was a little too jumping. "It's not high or high, I haven't let you see the god of death yet." Sesie turned over and held his own reins with one hand, and ran towards the imperial capital with the other.

Feng Lanche hid in the tree, Sexi looked back, glanced at the place where he was, and said in a lip: "Take care for Inmei." Feng Lanche nodded slightly, his eyes suddenly became chaotic, and in a moment he returned to clearness, and his expression was gloomy. As a pioneer, he could only detect the upcoming changes in the troubled times. He could not predict the future like a prophet. The prophet could predict the near future, but could not detect the unrest like him that even the gods could not explain it.

Feng Lanche put his right hand on his shoulder, bowed, and said, "As for orders, Miss."

"Sexi, what are we doing? This... the capital is in the north, right?" Gano gradually discovered something was wrong. Sheno said easily: "Go to the beach, we want to find 'blood-clotting sadness'." "What is that?" Gano had never heard of it.

"Someone has put poison in the imperial capital, which is the only thing that can save lives."

"There is a creature in the sea called mermaids. They have human upper body and fish tails. Legend has it that their tears are the most beautiful pearls. Mermaids usually live in groups of same sex and disperse to find a partner during the breeding season. Mermaid cubs live with their mothers until they become adults. There is a special relationship between cubs and mothers. When the cubs are killed and the mothers are powerless, the mother will shed blood and tears, and make beautiful songs of mourning."

"Those blood and tears are 'blood-clotting sadness'," Serci explained.

Gano was silent, and he said, "I have seen mermaids. The time I transported goods to the beach on the mines, I volunteered to help transport goods and followed them... I have seen mermaids. They swim to buy things, speaking unskilled human language..." "Mermaids are not humans." Sercy interrupted him calmly.

"They have their own city, they have their own currency, they have their own language, they...they held their children...and went to buy a rattle...even though it was not very useful underwater..." Gano defended anxiously.

"Ants also have their own cities, snow-winged birds also have their own currency, any animal has its own language, and crows love their children very much." Sercy was unmoved.

Gano struggled: "Let me down! You put me down! I don't go, I can't kill a child!" "It's a cub." As he said this, Sci stopped his horse.

"You said you should take me to save the world, but I'm going to kill a child!" Gano roared, "Is this what a hero should do?" "Bang--" Sci slapped him with a backhand, and replied, "Yes, it's all."

"Who do you think you are? If you want to save everyone, then save them! Go and save them! If you can cry out and you will be sad, you will make trouble! What qualifications do you have to ask me? What can you do? If you can't do anything, just ask for the conditions here to save everyone in the world? Wake up! How did you come from the name of hero? It fell from the sky? Get help all the way to kill the last great devil? Stop dreaming!"

"Those heroic epics, or those fantasy novels? They tell you that heroes are just as they wish and then become gods. Say a few big words and work hard and master the powerful power that no one can gain for hundreds of years? You can harvest ancient relics by just going anywhere? Or you can get beautiful women in love with them by walking on the street or by some beautiful words? Yes, who doesn't want to be a hero? Ah? You are invincible, with beautiful women, and you have achieved success and fame. The whole world is placed in front of you and you are chosen by you! But that

Will some bards who praise heroes tell you something else? Will they tell you the battle of Inosfan becoming famous, and they used a thousand soldiers to refine blood to complete the magic circle? Will they tell you that the princess he killed the monster to save was his sister he used as bait? Will they tell you that the hot springs of the North Asmod continent are the heart of his son? Will they tell you that Inosfan died not by assassination, but by his hated wife? They won't tell you?"

"Impossible, impossible... This is not true... You are talking nonsense..." Gano looked at her in disbelief. It was the person he wanted to be. He imagined more than once that he, like Inossain, was holding the dawn-breaking sword, riding a horse, breaking through all obstacles, invincible, and meeting one beauty after another.

"Of course, the book will not record. The person who wrote the book himself has not experienced those. But Thorensius has witnessed that no one knows better than us what a hero is. Let me tell you again that Anlu, the dragon slayer, killed his friend, the real dragon slayer, and then took away his honor; in all the battles of the Knights Templar, they will massacre the city, take away all the property and beautiful girls, some special hobbies will take away the boys and children; how did Jenard kill King Prow, the man-eating king? He used himself as bait, seduced King Prow, and then killed him in bed. By the way, when it comes to Jenard, how can he not mention Under Armour, who has the same skills? She has been a prostitute in Gulagon for half a year, and then got the opportunity to assassinate the brutal Elo."

"You think you have given something to be a hero? When Enosfan killed the red-eyed monster Babag, he grinded out a hand, and the flesh, and bones, little by little; Morrimog lost his best friend; Aiyago killed the Cyclops and all his relatives; just a few decades ago, Langone, who was armed with a gun, released his blood to understand the seal of the Fearless Gun, and then with obsession, killed the invading enemy troops. The epic will never tell you what they paid!"

"What about you? What did you do?"

"Behind the hero are all dry bones, and there are only dry bones!" Sesie grabbed Gano's collar and cruelly shattered all his fantasies about the hero.

Gano was scared to tears by her appearance. After all, he was just a fifteen-year-old boy, a boy who had never experienced anything, and had a heroic dream and had inexplicably assumed the responsibility of saving the world. He didn't know what gains and losses are, and he didn't know what sacrifice is. He choked up and asked, "Why... why is it me? I don't want to be a hero anymore." "You must be a hero, you must be you! Teacher Rena said that you have the blood of the shadow dragon. The savior who saw the first awakener was the blood of the shadow dragon. There was only you, and there was only you in the whole world. It was quite good, right? At least you are a little similar to the hero: talented." Sercy was even in the mood to joke.

"I...I dare not...I don't want to kill people..." "Shut up! You have to go, the mermaid cubs are particularly sensitive to sea water. Only your shadow dragon blood can confuse them. I will lead the mother away, you must succeed. There are hundreds of thousands of people in the imperial capital. Do you want to give up hundreds of thousands of people for a mermaid and an animal? Inside, there are not only the heavy sword knight you expect to be, but also the beautiful but clumsy Miss Shia. Their skin will fade and turn into pus from the inside. Do you want to see that the imperial capital is empty, see neighbors taking advantage of the opportunity, and see their army occupying our country? You can tell which is more important."

Garno was completely stunned. He nodded and said, "Okay...I'll go...I'll do it..."

"I have no choice either... I don't want to involve others... If there is something else that can relieve the tears of the gods, I will definitely find it... Don't blame me, no one wants this." Sethy looked tired and relieved, "I don't want to bear such a heavy burden... No one wants to..."

The Black Stone Jungle is not far from the sea, so it finally arrived within three days. Sexi handed Gano a medicine: "This can let you breathe under the water for about five hours. You will hide it in the water later. Teacher Rena taught me, right?" Gano quickly shook his head. Sexi nodded and said, "I am not strong enough, and I may not be able to trap the female mermaids for too long. You should try your best to fight and do not let the cubs cry, which will attract a group of mermaids." "But... but I may not be able to do it..."

"You have to be able to do it. The life of a mermaid cub or the life of hundreds of thousands of people. You know which is more important. Don't tell me what life is priceless and cannot be counted. If you want to be a hero and a superior, don't regard life as precious as it is. Those are just numbers. What you should do is to make the remaining numbers as large as possible."

Sesie closed her eyes and listened carefully. She said to Gano: "Did you see the circular sea in front? There is a single mermaid mother and son there. If you sneak in, I will try to lure my mother away."

Gano fused with nature according to the method taught by Lena. This was his talent. He could last as long as he wanted. He swallowed the medicine and carefully sank into the sea. The mermaid mother was teasing the child, but naturally did not notice him. He approached them slowly and cautiously. The mermaid mother suddenly raised her head, looked around, and then hung a whistle around the child's neck. Gano knew that the whistle would attract all the mermaids in this area of ​​the sea. He could not give the child the opportunity to blow the whistle.

The mother told the child a few words, swung her tail and swam out. Her tail fin almost swept to Gano, which scared him so much that he was so excited. Fortunately, the mermaid mother did not notice him, but just swam forward intently.

The child is sensible and obedient, and he is stunned in the water, pulling a seaweed from time to time, or picking up a beautiful stone or an exquisite shell.

A sharp whistle came from a distance. Gano understood that it was Sesi's code, and she had trapped the mermaid mother. He looked at the little mermaid, who was four or five years old, as cute as an exquisite doll. He had his own mother, and he, Gano, could not even remember whether he had seen his mother. The little mermaid suddenly stopped playing, and he was stunned for a few seconds, as if he had noticed that his mother was in trouble. He called out a few times, but did not hear his mother's response, so he reached out to pick up the whistle on his chest.

No, he couldn't let him blew the whistle. Gano suddenly reached out and grabbed the little mermaid, covering his mouth tightly with one hand, and clenched the whistle with the other. He tried so hard that he clenched the whistle. The little mermaid struggled desperately - was it struggling? He didn't pay attention.

He is just a child... He has only lived for a few years and he still has a long life... People in the imperial capital were soaked in tears of the gods and they need to coagulate blood and mourn... What does the people in the imperial capital have to do with me? Why do I kill a child for them... People in the imperial capital have nothing to do with me, and this mermaid has nothing to do with me... Gano unconsciously let go of his right hand holding the whistle and pinched the soft and tender, unstable neck of the little mermaid.

He is a child... Hundreds of thousands of people in the imperial capital have more than one child... I can't do this... The imperial capital is related to the entire country, and to all the people related to you... Ssi's whistle sounded again, and this time it became even more rapid.

She was urging me, she couldn't hold on... Look, there was no way for her so calm person to come here... There was no other way... The tears of the gods were helpless... Only blood coagulation and sorrow can cleanse everything, only blood coagulation and sorrow can save her life... She had no choice... I had no choice either...

Gano's hand gradually tightened, and the little mermaid struggled even harder. His tail was slamming randomly, his hands were dancing. Finally, the little mermaid's body twitched and finally lost her life.

A song of mourning came not far away, which was the cry of a mother.

Gano let go of his hand and hugged the small body tightly. He floated to the surface, and the water surface was calm. The laughter on Gano's face was even worse than crying. He only hugged the little mermaid and burst into laughter nervously: "Ha...ha...ha...haha...hahahaha, I succeeded...hahahaha...I saved the world...I am a hero...hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha..." His voice gradually lowered, and finally a desperate wail broke out, "I killed a child...I killed an innocent person...I killed a child...This is the hero...the hero who killed a child..."

Gano walked out of the water with his body in his arms, his eyes dull. He was still a fifteen-year-old boy, but it seemed like he had experienced a life and death. He held the little mermaid and went to find Sci, and he suddenly smiled, saying, "I am indeed a natural assassin..."

Not far away, Sesi dragged the mermaid's mother's body hard. Seeing Gano's inquiring eyes, she replied: "Once the blood coagulation is sad, the mermaid will die." Sesi was injured, not only on the visible skin, but also dark blood covered by the clothes. Gano nodded in a wooden manner: "That's right, then it seems that we have succeeded."

Sercy dragged the mermaid mother, he held the little mermaid and followed him step by step inland, without asking what he was doing.

"What exactly does Thorensius want?" Garno asked. Sercy turned to look at him, smiling as brightly as ever: "Thorensius wants nothing, they just hope that the tragedy of the mythological age will not reappear."
