The Birth of a True Hero

The Birth of a True Hero
Episode 60 The love of a mother


Rui who heard the stupid words of the commoners from her hometown became irritated and immediately issued the strongest evidence she had.


"If the evidence is what fools like you want, then look with your eyes and digest with your stupid head. Come out Rignit" said Rui who summoned his sword.


Light began to gather before Rui which was witnessed by millions of nobles and commoners in front of the imperial palace and Rignit's holy sword filled with golden runes appeared before Rui.


The people who witnessed it fell silent and immediately knelt down. The citizens of the imperial capital who witnessed back the sword of their hero who had saved them from death a few days ago, cried out in tears and uttered praise - praise for their hero.


"Oh, hero, that's our hero" said the first imperial citizens who knew Rui as a hero.


"Fortunately I was able to witness the birth of a hero in our generation" they said.


"Finally our heroes have been born in this country" welcome them again.


They were all stunned to witness the sword held by their hero Rui.


While those who had accused and suspected Rui as a fake hero only bowed embarrassed and sweat on their faces because they were very afraid to remember their previous words.


"Bless your face and stand up straight. This is an order" Rui said firmly.


Then they stood up straight following Rui's orders. Then one of them started to make a sound.


"Hi_live heroes, long live heroes" shouted one of them.


Then they all followed the words until all the citizens who were in the imperial capital spoke in praise of their heroes.


Then Rui returned to her dugout and healed her remaining wounds.


While the emperor replaced Rui speaking on the balcony of the Palace.


"The citizens of the empire that I care about. Tonight, we will have our hero's inauguration party and listen to the hero's important announcement" the Emperor said.


However the citizens of the empire showed a very different response when in the presence of the hero and the Emperor. As if - if he is very insignificant compared to the figure of a hero.


It caused resentment from Albert, the crown prince of the empire. He hates Rui and assumes that the emperor's status has been greatly demeaned because of Rui.


Albert entered the door of his room and kicked the pot with the furniture in his room in annoyance.


"It's all because of that guy. Had he not been around, people would have appreciated the emperor and me as the crown prince" he shouted as he threw objects in his room.


"Even the attention of Father was only on that person and always ignored me who was his own son"


"Look at you Rui. I will finish you off and take the sword from you. A lowly nobleman like you is no match for being a hero" he murmured resentfully.


However, he did not know that the shadow warrior heard all of that from behind the sky - the sky of his room. Then he told that to Rui.


Rui who heard that, only told the shadow soldier to continue to monitor the movements of the prince.


After that, Rui went to her uncle and talked about all the experiences that Rui had gone through.


"I didn't think your dream of becoming the greatest person in the empire could come true so soon. You really are something Rui" said his uncle, stroking Rui's head.


Rui blushed to hear his uncle's words praising him.


"Hehehe, I really didn't think my destiny would go like this. But I can't forget the words my uncle used to say to me, that all human beings are born with meaning in life and no human being is truly useless in this world"


Hearing this, Eliot became slightly absorbed in hearing the praise of his nephew.


"Well, I also told you about the heroes and it turns out that you became one of them, it really amazed me. Even when your grandfather told you about you in a letter when I was in the western academy, I repeatedly slapped my own cheek to make it clear that I wasn't dreaming and even assumed that your grandfather was hallucinating" he said with a smile.


"Hahahah, so yes. I also actually had time to hesitate to tell my identity as a hero to them. I was afraid that it would add weight to their thoughts about my future destiny. But due to a certain situation, I was forced to tell them everything. But thank goodness they were even happy to hear the news" Rui smiled.


"Hahahah, I can imagine how surprised your grandfather heard that" he said with a laugh.


"Well, I was also worried about his heart health" Rui said with a laugh.


Then Julia came to them both.


"What, you guys are talking about, looks like Rui looks really happy" asked Julia curiously.


"Ah, it's nothing, brother, then excuse me first. See you brother, Rui" Eliot said as he passed away.


Julia looked at her son meaningfully. That made Rui a little worried.


"I_mom, what's wrong?" said curious.


Julia hugged her son.


"You know Rui, I was really happy when I heard about you being a hero. But on the one hand, I'm really worried about your safety. I'm afraid you're acting recklessly and putting your own life at risk" Julia lamented.


Hearing that, Rui felt a little sad when she heard her mother worrying about her.


"Yes I know mom. But this has become my destiny. After all, I'm the son of Julia Barnet, the one who won't stay silent seeing someone in need of help" Rui said, trying to calm her mother's worries.


"Well, I would do the same, but as a mother, I would choose to sacrifice everything for you, whatever the risk. Even if you weren't born a hero and living without any talent you have, it wouldn't diminish my love for you" Julia said, shedding tears.


Hearing that, Rui became moved and also shed her tears. He recalled his parents in his previous life who abandoned him and never received any attention and affection from them.


"I'm_me, me" he said, holding back tears.


"I am truly grateful to be born in this world. I am so grateful that you became my mother. Me, I'm really happy to be the son of someone who loves me as much as you do"


"Just because of you, I can get this far. Just because of you, I can survive when I'm down . Te_thank you for being my mother and thank you for giving birth to me, mother" said Rui who continued to cry in her mother's arms.
