Chapter 151: 150 Only This One (Please subscribe! Seeking Monthly Tickets!) “I knew you would be concerned about this.” Vivian, unaware of the ideas already forming in Shane’s mind, suddenly smiled. “Actually, it’s hardly a secret, it’s practically common knowledge throughout the Kingdom.” Hearing Vivian’s introduction, Shane felt increasingly uncomfortable. Common knowledge... common knowledge... it’s that damned ‘common knowledge’ again! This is because I’m a transmigrator who’s unfamiliar with life here, having just arrived and knowing nothing, right? Feeling his intelligence insulted, Shane began to regret not spending more time reading in the Guild’s library when he had the chance. If he had read more, he would surely know of these so-called commonly known things, right? Now, he felt like he was being treated as illiterate, which was indeed agonizing. In that moment, Shane deeply realized the benefits of reading and decided to create a sign to advise everyone to study diligently and strive for improvement every day. Of course, Vivian couldn’t know that Shane had started brainstorming again and proceeded to explain directly. “I know what you’re thinking. You must feel that the Holy Sword of the Hero should belong exclusively to yourselves, that it should not be transferable, and that once the Hero passes away, the Holy Sword would also disappear, right?” Vivian spoke confidently. “In fact, that’s exactly how it was. In the past, the Holy Swords of the Heroes who were summoned to this world would shatter upon their deaths, leaving not even a shard behind.” “However, a thousand years ago, the Hero Mitra, who founded this Kingdom, made a request to the Three Great Goddesses on the verge of his death, wanting to leave behind some strength for the Royal Family and the Kingdom.” “That request was to offer himself as a living sacrifice to the Holy Sword.” Upon hearing this, Shane’s steps halted abruptly. “Sacrifice?” Shane’s face was filled with astonishment. “Yes,” Vivian nodded affirmatively and continued, “The Holy Sword is a power born from the concept of ‘Hero,’ and it naturally disappears with the death of the Hero.” “If that’s the case, then before the Hero dies, offer the Hero himself as a sacrifice and, through a ritual, dedicate it to the Holy Sword.” “In doing so, the Hero effectively becomes one with the Holy Sword, devoid of the concept of death, and thus the Holy Sword can remain.” “This was a theory proposed by the Hero Mitra a thousand years ago, and you’ve already seen the result, haven’t you?” These words left Shane speechless. “Is he really that desperate?” Shane tried to make his tone sound less sympathetic as he said, “Rather than making such a huge sacrifice, I think he might as well have sought a way to achieve immortality.” Since this is a fantasy world of swords and magic, with long-lived races like the Divine Race, Demon Clan, and even the Elf Clan, then as a Hero who could defeat the Demon King, he should be able to use his own abilities to find a way to immortality, right? At worst, as the great hero who defeated the Demon King, Mitra could ask the Three Great Goddesses of the Divine Race to grant him immortality, couldn’t he? Shane believed that this task should certainly not be beyond the capabilities of gods at the level of the Three Great Goddesses. To end up offering himself as a sacrifice, how many fatal turns must it take for someone to become so desperate? However, this time Shane was unfairly blaming the hero. “Do you think Hero Mitra passed away peacefully of old age?” Vivian said with a bitter smile, “No, the reason for his death was mainly due to the grave injuries he sustained in the battle with the Demon King. Those injuries, as complications, remained with him and ultimately led to Hero Mitra’s death.” “This...” Shane had nothing to say. Injuries inflicted by the Demon King? That meant, even the Supreme God Ominis couldn’t heal these wounds, could She? Thus, it seemed only natural for him to have met such an end. “However, Hero Mitra did not die until he was almost ninety-nine years old, which, for a human, is also considered very long-lived,” Vivian added, “Considering this, the hero wanted to leave his Holy Sword to the Royal Family and the Kingdom before he passed away, to continue protecting the nation.” As a result, he offered himself as a sacrifice to the Holy Sword through a ritual, allowing the Holy Sword to remain in this world. “Still, the Holy Sword is ultimately a power that belongs only to Heroes, and even if it can remain, it is not something just anyone can wield.” Vivian continued to provide further clarification. “To become the new wielder of the Holy Sword, one must fulfill two prerequisite conditions.” “One is that one must be of the bloodline of Hero Mithra, meaning, only a member of the Royal Family of the Mitra Kingdom, and more specifically, a direct descendant, can use the Holy Sword.” “The other is that one must possess talent potential no less than Hero Mithra, whether it’s a Unique Skill or Divine’s Blessing, nothing can be inferior to Hero Mithra.” “Only by fulfilling these two conditions, can one use the Holy Sword and become the successor of the Mitra Holy Sword.” “You can understand how stringent these conditions are.” Of course, he understood. It meant that one could not become the successor of the Holy Sword without being a descendant on par with Hero Mithra. To be comparable to the Hero who defeated the Demon King? None of the heroes of the past generations had managed that. This showed how stringent the conditions were. “Who has met these conditions in the past thousand years?” That was the only question Shane had. But Vivian simply smiled without saying anything, her gaze fleeting towards the direction of the Princess’s bedroom behind her, telling Shane the answer. The answer was———”Only that one.” In a whole thousand years, only that Princess had met the conditions. “Otherwise, why would she be the modern Hero?” The reason was just that simple. Shane finally began to understand why so many people fanatically worshiped that Princess. It wasn’t only because she was beautiful, but also because she was simply born into this world with the protagonist’s aura innate to her. “”After Reincarnating in the Otherworld, I Discovered I’m Not the Protagonist as a Hero?”” “”The Otherworld Princess Is the Hero?”” “”As a Descendant of the Hero, Yet Stronger than the Hero Himself?”” In an instant, Shane brainstormed dozens of light novel titles. These titles... So true! And then... “Vivian, you go back first,” Shane suddenly said this to Vivian. “What’s the matter?” Vivian was startled. “I’m going to see the Princess once more,” said Shane directly: “There are some things, I want to ask her again.” Hearing this, Vivian immediately wanted to say that she could go back with Shane. But upon further thought, Vivian stopped herself. “Just don’t be too brash.” Vivian left with just that piece of advice. “Got it.” Shane readily agreed. Vivian then cast a glance at the Princess’s bedroom behind her and slowly departed. Shane watched as Vivian left, and then turned around to head back, walking towards Luoqi’s room.
