I, the Heir of Heroes

"No~ it's fine. This is the place where little Nina just said she wanted to go! I wanted to take care of your tired body, but when I saw your serious expression, I was really embarrassed to refuse What! I have no choice but to bring you here!"

—No, I'm not, I haven't!

——Senior, I'm afraid you just want to record this embarrassment...

Stiff eyes stared at the magic that was obviously used to record images.

Not knowing how to refute, Nina could only stare helplessly at Xin Ke with an admiring expression, hoping to win some sympathy.

"Hey, Nina, can I trust you!?"

Just now, it was just a way of communication between them as seniors and juniors. Xin Ke, who was back to work again, gradually looked at Nina's cheek seriously and said.

"...Really, I thought what the senior was going to say..."

In the atmosphere that seemed heavy without realizing it, Nina relaxed and let out a sigh of relief.

"Of course! Everything I have belongs to my senior, so as long as it is an order from my senior, I will do my best to complete it."

Nina showed a bright smile that was completely different from just now. This is the trust that she can trust without hesitation even if she entrusts her life to the other party.

"You don't need to worry about anything at all, you just need to give orders to me as usual."

No one could guess what was going on in the mind of the genius in front of her, just like her strange behavior that completely disappeared from the sight of the entire race at the beginning for no reason.

For all of them, it was an unbelievable miracle to encircle the goblins with little effort as a secondary goal, while capturing the phantoms as the main task.

However, Nina understood that the girl in front of her must have greater ambitions deep in her soul.

However, this has nothing to do with her, she doesn't need to think about so many things, she is content to act as a substitute for the senior, she just needs to keep going.

"It's just Nina..."

With an inaudible whisper, Xin Ke's hexagonal pupils flashed a wave.

For me, what kind of existence is Nina?

It would not be accurate to say that there is a simple relationship between seniors and juniors, but in fact there is no blood relationship.

Is it possible that they can be trusted to such an extent just because of pure friendship, that they can even entrust their lives to each other——I think it should be quite difficult.

If I have to say it——

The so-called "successor" may be an appropriate description.

That's right!

It is the heir!

Maybe even Nina herself didn't realize how miraculous it is to be able to be the leader of a race without showing any flaws for so many years.

As the king of the elves, one does not necessarily need excellent magical talent, which was the answer that Xin Ke had come up with a few years ago.

The racial gap cannot be bridged, and it is OK to leave the things that should be studied to the person in charge of the task.

A king is a king.

The back of the king is the eyes of the followers, and the way the king advances is the direction of the followers.

In this regard, at least Nina did it perfectly.

——Since this is the case, what else can I worry about?

So the facts have proved that the elves have been able to continue well under the influence of Nirvalen's disappearance.

And everything that followed was just to satisfy the desire named [Xink Nirvalen].

At this moment, it is time for her to chase that unattainable dream.

"Hmph~ The worst ending is just the disappearance of an elf named Xinke."

Thinking of this in her heart, the corners of Xinke's mouth curved into a fearless and disdainful arc.

"Then Nina, remember what I say next——"

"Ahh~... yes!"

Xin Ke began to take off the thin clothes she was wearing as if no one else was there, and as usual, she gave instructions to Nina who was suddenly blushing beside her.

"According to what I found in the war that year, Inzahn's body is connected to another unknown space. In that space, there is likely to be a spirit species that is being born—or a spirit species that has already been born. Although I don't know why That spirit species has not appeared in the main material world so far, but it is very likely that there is a problem in a certain link, so this is an opportunity..."

"Wait... wait, senior!..."

Nina started to panic, she faintly felt what a shocking thing Xinke was about to do.

"Don't worry too much. The successful capture of this phantom species can undoubtedly prove that my guess is correct. Living phantom species are not what we can deal with now. Only those that have lost their life characteristics can be killed in this operation. Successfully contained."

Without allowing his junior to interrupt, Xin Ke summoned the special cassock that was transferred with him to his hand.

However, a small hand reached out and grabbed the piece of equipment, and Xin Ke saw the stubbornness on Nina's face.

"Senior, let me do this matter!"

"Do you know what to do?"

"Eh!?……"

When asked, she looked confused. Although Nina could feel the danger of the mission, she really didn't know what to do.What drove her to act like this was only the uneasiness and worry in her heart.
