Bab 1

"Oh my dear Vell, why do you care so much about that kid? Why don't you care about power or anything that you know that you can get"

"Power, rank, strength, king, leader, god or demon... I don't care about any of that. All I care about is freedom."

"So you want to be free Vell?"

"Yes."

"Then come to me after you're done with it."

Vell opened his eyes and realized that he was stranded on the ground although his body condition was still good... Vell walked to the area adjacent to the river after hearing the sound of water

Upon arrival, Vell washed his body while looking for fish in the river... The next day, Vell walked along the river until he found a town that had been destroyed... Vell went there to look for supplies and maps that could be used.

Vell entered every house in the town but did not find what he wanted.

Then Vell met a demon in a house and the demon was killed by Vell... As Vell was checking on the demon's condition, Vell heard crying underground... Vell opened it and found that there were more than 43 people

"Thank you for saving us... Excuse me, may I ask what your name is?"

"Same, my name is Vell"

"Vell!"

"Yes, why?"

"It's nothing."

"So your name?"

"My name is Raiz"

"Well I think my job is done here because I can't find what I want, then I will leave"

"No, don't leave!!! At least please take us to VALERIAN"

"Why did I bring you all? And what is Valerian?"

"Valerian is one of the last refuges for humanity."

"From whom?"

"The devil."

"Impossible, a demon wouldn't dare to attack unless forced"

"7 years ago, the Demon King was resurrected."

"Impossible ! There's no way I didn't know about it!"

"Sir, at least please take us to Valerian and I promise in Valerian you can get what you want right"

"There is one thing I don't understand, why Valerian? You said yourself Valerian is one of humanity's last refuges, so why not another one?"

"Because Valerian is the only one who dare to attack the demons."

"Isn't that dangerous for all of you?"

"Yes, but I'd rather die in battle than see or feel our children die in the future."

"Alright, let's go"

"Thank you, sir!"

"But I don't know the way"

"Don't worry, I know."

In the end, Vell brought 43 people with him to Valerian.

After a long day of walking they finally arrived at a place where they could rest... All of them rested while being guarded by volunteers who would watch while the others slept ... That night, Vell was chatting with Raiz

"So that Valerian, what's so good about it besides dare fighting demons?"

"I don't know but from what I hear from people, Valerian is a place of hell for everyone"

"Why hell?"

"Because of the actions of the Valerian leader who dared to fight the demons, the demon king focused his target on Valerian even though Valerian managed to attack the demon again and the demon king's place was half destroyed by them ... Because of that many people want to go to Valerian to spend their life for her"

"But I'm confused, why didn't Hero intervene to fight the Demon King"

"That's because the world is unstable"

"You mean?"

"I don't know what kind but you'll know the answer in Valerian"

"Okay."

After 4 days of traveling they finally arrived at Valerian... The sound of cannon fire and shouting was heard.

"So how many people are there?"

"There were 44 people but it was reported that one of them used the name Vell."

"Again?"

"Yes, ma'am."

"Go get him, let him realize how big a sin it is to steal people's names."

"Okay."

4 elite soldiers pointed their spears at Vell.

"you, surrender yourself now!"

"What mistake did I make?"

"You stole Vell's name!!!"

"wait, it is indeed my name"

"Don't lie, hurry up and get him."

"Don't go too far man"

Vell attacked the four soldiers and easily defeated them.

"What's this noise?"

"Sorry, ma'am, but our four elite soldiers have been defeated by the name thief."

"What? Who stole the name?"

Instantly the person stopped and let out his tears slowly ... His weapons and shields were removed by her hand.

The person slowly approached Vell while flowing his tears.

"Impossible, you still alive?"

"Of course I'm alive, wait who are you?"

"I'm looking for you, I've been waiting for you for 12 years, Vell!"

Everyone was shocked to hear these words.

"What do you mean 12 years and who are you!?"

"I've always disliked your jokes like this Vell, its me Rika"
