From No Body To Hero
Episode 37's

"The wounded front row is retreating."

Bern said that and made many of the soldiers in front of the wounded retreat including Ailen and Uen.

"Now we are only defending before giving a counterattack. We have to wait for Princess Faura with her soldiers."

Many soldiers died while fighting with octopus humans. But many of them were fine for not having the chance to fight.

Bern defeated the electric eel so easily that they did not even have time to excel.

They have to back off and hold on now. When Faura arrived, it would trap them from both sides.

They were only traitors of the city until it was impossible for them to create trouble for the other kingdoms if they were killed.

Everyone backed off as Bern had ordered them to, even though they did not want to obey at first. But seeing Felix support his decision by remaining silent, they had no guts to resist.

After all, it was still land even though the center of the city was in the depths of the sea. For the citizens of Sebasta, fighting on land was extremely disadvantageous.

Bern stepped back with Alastair and gathered with his other friends. With the protection of the common people, the soldiers could fight more freely which made the situation more restrained.

{Bern, you are crazy!}

Althea immediately scolded Bern when she saw him. Bern's condition is really awful!

"I'm fine."

Althea was bluffing her teeth when she heard that. How can Bern be fine with the condition of his organs as if they were destroyed as well as the deadly poison in them!? Although he could cure her, since Bern was the owner, it was not a situation that could make her feel relieved.

He would not be able to cure such a powerful poison with his strength, if Bern was not his master. His healing power is not almighty to others.

If Bern loses his hand, he can heal it, but he can't do that to anyone else. His power is not as powerful as that of a god.

The beautiful pupils of Althea's eyes trembled wanting to cry. Alastair lowered his head understanding Althea's feelings.

The black coat Bern wore was to delay as well as reduce 30% of the pain the least. Alastair had already used all of his strength to take 50% of Bern's pain, and he bathed a little blood in his hand. He does not feel the pain, but the impact of the pain reduction on him if one's pain is too great.

However he could not delay the pain if it was already until he coughed up blood. How painful was Bern to the point that he had a bloodbath?

"Bern, your hands!"

Anton frantically looked at his black left hand.

"Calm down. Althea can heal me even if it takes a little while."

Althea bit her lower lip feeling frustrated hearing that. He hopes he's stronger so he can heal Bern even if he's as bad as he's hurt.

"Disregard me now, what about you?"

Bern asked to see that his friend had many small wounds. Kleio was not there monitoring the situation.

"Don't joke, we're of course fine."

Ailen said that arrogantly. Compared to their external injuries, Bern's well-looking body in front of them was more severe.

Bern looked at their sad faces in confusion. It is the duty of adults to set a good example.

But, as everyone expected, Bern even felt he was no longer strong enough to stand up, no, he actually did not know how he could still be awake with the pain he felt.

'It seems, my old habits are back.'

Bern thought of that as his eyes slowly became dim as if running out of battery.

"I need to rest right away."

Bern muttered slowly, yet everyone could hear him clearly. But, there was nothing they could say to ask Bern to rest. If Bern loses his consciousness, Bern's shield spell will disappear.

Bern can't relax. That fact made his friend frustrated.

Gr!r!!!

"!!?"

The ground suddenly shook so strongly that many people lost their footing.

Bern, who had no real energy, quickly lost his footing and was helped by Uen who was beside him.

["I, here!"]

The dark aura that looked like a line because of its speed gave Alastair goosebumps. A aura that was so gripping that he wanted to bow down and kneel.

As an ancient demon, of course he knew what existence it was.

["Devil dominated!"]

Bern frowned hearing that. As someone who had almost read the books in the library and remembered everything, he knew the dominated demon's intent.

A demon that was able to give nightmares to people in ancient times, because of its presence alone, could frighten people for no reasonable reason.

Even those who are not afraid of death, will submit and cannot do anything other than fear.

"Damn....."

Lewis and Anton cursed as their legs gave up in fear before even seeing the terrifying existence.

The black aura moved and stopped at the top of the palace which was the highest place there. The figure of a 10-meter-wide black dog, with sharp spines all over its body also 15-meter-wide, was very threatening. His red eyes and sharp teeth added yet another horror of the figure.

Everyone there kneeled forcibly out of fear. Only 9 people from the organization were casually standing as if unaffected by it.

"Finally, he showed up!"

One of the people from the organization spoke happily. What they wanted from Sebasta was to awaken an ancient demon with a dominated power that fell asleep for a very long time with chaos.

Dragon eggs were just a bonus of their actions. As for the outbreak in Narda city, the head of the Satan organization just wants to have fun seeing the suffering of people there and thinks it would be good to make the city a testing ground.

The city that died because of the plague would not receive a visit and many people would be afraid to return to the city even if it was cleared of the plague.

Thinking of getting an ancient demon dominated and a dragon at the same time made him think of experimenting with both of those things in the city of Narda.

"You are useless."

They smiled looking towards the 5 witches who were completely useless there.

"What do you want to do!?"

"This is not true!"

"We're on the same side!"

The cornered witches made their last attempt in vain.

"The same side? You kidding?"

The person unfolded their black robes and under the black robe, there was a black purple robe with the same demon skull emblem, but it had a different star complexion. The witches had 4 stars of medium-sized grandchildren who were in black purple robes had 3 small stars surrounding the demon skull.

"We have a higher rank of useless tools like you."

One of them mocked and killed the witches sadistically. Although they were screaming, no one could focus on them out of fear.

The blood of the witch who died with a sword slash moved into an intricate rune and disappeared. The eyes of the group of 3 stars turned blood red for a moment before returning to normal.

The reason why demonic-powers were a forbidden force was because they used sacrifices and fresh blood to become stronger. How many people would be sacrificed just for one person to become stronger? That's definitely not a little.

"Now, let's catch the creature for master."

While a group of 3 stars climbed up the palace, Bern below was already pulling his shield. There is no point in throwing a shield if no one is attacking.

["We. need saint.."].

Alastair muttered slowly feeling the clutches in his body disappear because it was enveloped in fear.

{Where can we get saint!?}

Althea scolded him, yet she was also terrified. Closing both of his ears, curled up in fear above Alastair's head.

There are only 2 existences that can fight the fears of the dominated demons. It was an adult dragon that was at least 300 years old that already had its own dragon fear that was not much different from the fear that the demon dominated gave it.

The other existence is Saint. Saints have healing powers that are stronger than healing spirits. But the existence of the saint has disappeared since the ancient war itself ended. No new saint appeared in that world.

Saints are existences that are protected by gods, so such fears have no effect on them as well they can give others courage to fight.

Even because of the scarcity of saint existence, they can be categorized with dragons that are very difficult to find. Also there are only 3 saints ever written in history when the war of humans and demonic monsters that occurred more than 10 thousand years ago.

Where do they want to get the saint now? Even in a time where many people needed a saint, only 3 appeared. What else now was almost peaceful if they did not go to the area of the demon monsters themselves.

Even Faura who ran 50 meters away from the palace could not move, kneeling on the ground with her head bowed, biting her lower lip in annoyance and fear.

No pound can lift their head to see the existence that scares them.

'But why....'

Bern whose body from the start was already weak, raised his head feeling puzzled.

'I don't feel fear from his anergy?'

Bern, who did not even believe in gods, how could it possibly have the power of a saint? That doesn't make any sense at all.

'Is there something strange on my body?'

Bern searched in his body that there might be an heirloom or something to fight against the domineering aura of the demon.

But he found no apapon on his body, not even a tattoo anywhere. He only had a regular mole on his right calf.

Sure, he saw her when he took a shower. There was no way he would undress at such a time.

Bern frowned in confusion and turned to look at his grimoire lying on the ground as he stopped using magic.

[The day of chaos, heroes will also appear.]

The spell in the 4th courtyard of his grimoire arrived playing in Bern's mind.

Chaos, hero?

Bern took his grimoire and looked at the green gem in the middle. Most grimoires are just books that look ancient. Very rarely is there a grimoire with jewelry on the cover.

Even for the Zion grimoire, it only had gold embroidery, nothing more than that.

A beautiful green gem in the middle.

'What fate is playing with me?'

Bern had a little trouble seeing the grimoire. The spell he recited also scared people like oura the dominated demon.

Bern looked at everyone who was cowering in fear and did not even see his movements including Uen who was at the side.

The dominating demon is a threat.
