In the end, Nortiya was left with burns all over her body, and she was unable to move.

　After asking the villagers to give him minimal medical attention, they decided to send him to the center guild on a load that carries mithril weapons.

''Dariel-san, who the hell are you...?

　The brave Radie, who had been a spectator all along, asks.

It is the original secret technique of the previous hero, Arantzill-sama. Moreover, not only can you use it, but you seem to know a lot about Master Arantzill. Are you really what in the world...?
''It's not just Nortiya.

　I gave a stern look to the hero, Radie.

You are also weak, much weaker than your predecessor, and it pains me to challenge the Demon King with such strength.
'What?　Your Majesty, my Lord...?
Your problem is, before your weapons and your friends, you're just as weak as you are.

　I've made up my mind.
　I've made up my mind.

"I'm gonna train you.
"What?
"At the very least, we need you to be strong enough to compete with the Four Heavenly Kings, otherwise the guild won't be able to stop harassing us, and it might cause us problems.

　No more friends, no more weapons.

You need to be strong in here, and you need to be strong on your own.

You're not going to be able to do that.

　This is how the heroic Radey training chapter began in Lax village.

　Surprisingly, Radey obediently followed suit and engaged in daily training.

　If he trains, won't that delay the defeat of the demon king and that will be a problem for him?　Some may argue that it's a good idea.
　Even the previous hero had lingered and fought for thirty years until he retired after all.
　You can't complain about the fact that the current generation spent a year or two in training.

　Now that he had beaten up Noltya, the messenger of speech, the Center Guild would be more docile and would not say anything unnecessary.

　Thus, there was another strange resident in Lax Village.

''........Ha!

　In the midst of the actual training, the heroic Radey swings down his practice iron sword.
　Then a mass of aura created from the trajectory of the slash, which turned into a flying blade, runs away.

''Isn't that the 'Great Emperor Splitting Sky'?'''

　Amazing, she can use it too.
　Well, that's right, she's an active hero.

　I can do things that nobody else can do! And I shouldn't brag about it.

''.........No, that wasn't the 'Great Emperor Splitting Sky'.
What?

　No, but the aura blade flew away properly, right?

''That's Hatada's 'Splitting Sky' now. Many adventurers have mastered the skill of flying aura blades, despite its high difficulty level. Among them, the only one who can do it on an order of magnitude larger and more powerful than any other is Master Arantzill, the previous hero.

　.........
　.........hmmm.

''Several times more than the original. It's hard to call this technique a mere 'splitting sky' anymore, but we respectfully call it the 'Supreme Supreme Splitting Sky'. Only the 'Sky Splitting' that Master Aranziel releases is the 'Supreme Supreme Sky'.
Oh, really...?

Dariel. You are truly a mysterious person. You don't know just the Sky of Rivendell, you know only the Sky of Rivendell. And the 'Rivendell Sky' you're releasing also has a scale and power worthy of being called the 'Super Emperor's Rivendell Sky'...!

　Did I do something wrong?

　I was a former member of the Demon King's Army and only knew the human adventurers as enemies.
　I didn't know that the techniques used by adventurers were called by such detailed names...!

''I'm a brave man, but I can't master my predecessor's 'Great Emperor Splitting Sky'. The amount of aura I pour into it is too small. A successor who can't handle his predecessor's trump card is too pathetic...!
'What?　A trump card?
What is it?
Oh, no...!

I'm a little uncomfortable with the term "trump card"...
　Because "trump card" sounds like something you won't use until the very end. It's a trump card that should be used at the point of crisis.

　But the heroic Arantzill I saw on the battlefield, when the fight started, he immediately used the Sky Splitting Force.
　And then, like a jab, he fires it in rapid succession.

　The opposing Four Heavenly Kings Granbaza-sama also used a barrage of super advanced fire magic to push back, so when they fought, the terrain changed at the very least.

''You don't just need to cultivate the 'Great Emperor Splitting Sky', you have the strength to make more than enough use of it...!　It's a long way...!

　I guess he read my expression, and Radey was convinced by himself without being told anything.

''Even so, Dariel-san is truly an amazing person. He completely owns the 'Super Emperor Splitting Sky' that only the previous generation should be able to handle. Not only does he have strength, he also has insight....''

　When Radey said that much, he slumped down with a dark expression.

''........as if you're more worthy of being a brave man.......''
?

　The words were too whispery to be heard by me.

　But Radie immediately looked up and said clearly.

''But that's why it's worthwhile to train under you!　I can feel that my strength is improving rapidly after receiving your teachings...!
Is that...?
You're right. I'm weak. When I met you, I realized that fact. That's why I'm going to train under you to become stronger. I'm going to close in on the realm where the previous heroes and you are...!

　I don't think you should lump me in with the previous generation of heroes, though?

Please, thank you!
'Yeah, yeah ...'

　How is it a benevolent way for the former Demon King's Army to give power to a brave man?　I'm not sure what to think....
　Well, I guess it's all right.
　In fact, if the enemy side doesn't have a bone in their body, the saga that will be handed down afterwards will be tasteless.
　The four heavenly kings of our time will be happy to see the brave men become stronger and fight on even terms, as it will make their lives worthwhile.
　Huh.

''It's still strange. Why is a person with this much power buried in the provinces...''

　Radie's sharp gaze is piercing me with a searing gaze.

''........I still can't give up. That you will become one of us.
There you go again.

　To me, this village and my family are the most important thing in the world. I'd rather leave the world to someone else.

'I know that's not possible right now. But I will train here and when I am stronger than you, I will ask you once again to join me on my journey to defeat the Demon King. I will ask you to join me on my journey to defeat the Demon King with the brave men...!
Time will not change the answer, though.
'No!　Who else is worthy of being the last of the brave fellows but you!　I will definitely make you acknowledge me after training under you and becoming strong!

　There's no logic in saying that if I acknowledge you, you'll become my friend........

　Before I knew it, the brave girl had taken a liking to me.
　If I wasn't a wife and child, I would have been in trouble.
