Hero Creator: The Last Hero
Ch. 44 — Reveal Stone Forecast

Time after time passed, the two weeks since Rigel woke up the changes were getting more meaningful. The coronation of Priscilla as Fairy Queen and Leo as Hero has been accomplished without any significant problems.

With the presence of a new Queen who has been introduced to the rest of the world, life dependent on nature is now able to breathe a sigh of relief.

Priscilla's memory of what she knew about Rigel has been erased, though not completely forgotten. At least there was no need for any worries of unexpected intervention to come from him.

The next problem was the coronation of the Hero. Leo was reluctant to accept the burden because he still wanted to be subordinate to Rigel and his son. But Rigel encourages him to keep rising to become a Hero and let him act as he wishes.

All that was left to overcome was the stone of divination. What Natalia said and here they are. Only the Heroes were on the altar where the Stone of Divination was located.

“Pregnant Stones. I always want to research it more deeply when the endless problems are finished.” Rigel looked at the blue stone floating in front of him.

“Find the divination stone, solve the puzzle to find the one stored in it. The tomb will shine, eight stars merge into one, the puzzle pieces will be complete and the final gate open.” Rigel repeats the words that the mysterious figure conveys to Natalia, then to her.

“I think there is no deep meaning to the word.” Hazama expressed her thoughts.

“Yes, a figure we don't even know about? It's hard to believe that he's trying to convey something useful to us.” Aland.

“But why would he bother himself with breaking up souls and maintaining them for thousands of years? Even if he wants to cheat, there will be no deceiver.” Marcel denied.

“Maybe he's just bored and wants to reveal a joke?” Petra made a wild assumption while smiling innocently.

“Good if so. But the figure was recognized very strongly by Miss Natalia. I can't believe that strong people act silly.” Nadia cynically denied those foolish thoughts.

“Yes. The fact that he revealed such shocking things as the ancestors of Britannia and Ruberios, as well as the ruined kingdom Etherbelt is enough proves him to be genuine.” Ray supports Nadia.

Only people who lived in their time knew the truth of this distorted history. To the heroes who are only survivors, the past of this place is very foreign.

Takumi walked over to Rigel's side staring silently at the Stone of Divination, “What do you think, Rigel? Will there be meaning behind those words.”

Rigel did not answer immediately. He stretched out his left hand and fired several missiles at the Stone of Divination. The Heroes who witnessed it could not keep their mouths shut, his actions were too haphazard.

“What do you do Rigel? What if it's destroyed ..” Yuri was about to get angry but stopped her when she saw the state of the Divination Stone.

Let alone be crushed, scratched not. Enough to prove that this stone is not just any stone.

“In legend, this stone was made by a god and will not be destroyed. This stone was deliberately created to help humans predict the future and know when the time of war arrived.” Merial repeats the legend told by generations.

“With all the things that happened, I no longer believe in the legend of this world.” Marcel expressed his thoughts.

Rigel secretly agreed with him. Many stories in the past have strayed in his path. Even the mysterious person who made chaos in the past was forgotten.

“If what the shadow says is true, then this stone concludes something. Something we can solve the puzzle.” Takumi bit his nails.

“What's in it for us to do it? Could be nothing meaningful to be gained just by breaking it.” Petra tilted her head.

“That assumption is not wrong. But we won't know what's going to happen. Could have been help, destruction, strength, or true history.” Hazama doesn't support or blame Petra for not understanding anything.

Everyone was silent about those words. There are many possibilities, none more frightening than the unknown.

“The main problem is that we do not know what puzzles to solve. The context and the problem is not known at all.” Marcel.

The fact is they don't have any information about puzzles or anything like that. They only knew that there was something hidden among the Stone of Divination. Not more less.

“Then we just need to look for it.”

“Search how?” Ask Hazama.

“Everything. Express whatever you think. Even though it's silly to just take it out, we need to think outside the box.” Rigel.

As Rigel wished, everyone began to express their thoughts. Starting from looking for buttons, magic, key holes to even puzzles. There are even those who reveal the flow of magic and the like.

Everything was done and tried, but none of it worked. It is hard to think about it and it can be depressing. Everything seemed lethargic as all of their experiments failed.

“It doesn't seem as easy as it sounds, yes.” Yuri.

“Yes, not having any information is hard to find. Suppose there is basic information such as location, name or the like.”

Hearing Takumi's words made Rigel open his eyes wide. He didn't think about it at all.

“True too. Merials. Try to describe the location of the known Prediction Stone.”

“Eh? Describing it you mean in the form of coordinate points?” Merial seemed confused by the command Rigel gave him.

“Yes. On the map, on paper, no problem. Do it as soon as possible.”

Merial though confused immediately did it. He returned with the map in his hand. Rigel forms an iron table with his abilities. He widened the map and there was a point of location for the Divination Stone made by Merial.

“What do you want to do Rigel?” Marcel asked confusedly.

“Note the location of this Prediction Stone, don't you remind something?” Ask Rigel.

They looked in silence for a few minutes. Various possibilities can certainly arise but in this case nothing comes to their mind.

“Minds something, I only see lines. No messages of any kind can be found.” Nadia expressed her thoughts, The other heroes also seem to be at one thought.

The location of the Divination Stone was only in the form of a line. People who do not know it will certainly think that there is no meaning to it. But for Rigel, this must have an important meaning.

“This is something that only humans from earth know about. I don't know how in your place but I'm sure the sky we see is the same.”

Which means only those who are summoned from earth can find its meaning. Rigel could have mentioned it but he wanted at least the others to use the brain.

“Stay I don't know.” Takumi scratched his head and gave up.

“Ya, I give up.” Aland.

The others seem to agree. But Petra, who was not expected to say something.

“This, isn't it like a constellation?”
