The hero now known as the fallen hero was revealed against the kingdom and the church.
And the bigger problem was that he was alone in this.
maybe with effort he could get help and do something big.
but for now, he only was limited to escape.
Sometimes he simply escaped and at other times he fought.
Then one would think that without allies the fallen hero try to go to another country.
but wasn't occur, the hero didn't make allies, didn't run away to another country, he stayed in this country.
And so, each time that he escaped from the inquisitors or the troops.
the kingdom each time was getting more angry with him, and send the most powerful troops.
And at the end.
In the eighth year since the fallen hero had been summoned.
He now, on a morning like any other, he was waiting in the ruins of an abandoned temple in the middle of a forest, sitting at the altar.
waiting for his invitations.
"Finally you have arrived, I was waiting for you, hero."
he was waiting for the hero and his party, the ones that entered the temple for the main door.
A female archer elf, a holy maiden, a warrior female beast kid, a female knight dwarf, a female summoner half-demon, the hero Siro, and Sophia the mage.
All they were now front him as his enemies, not as allies.
"you going to pay for all the innocent lives that have you ruined"
the hero Siro said pointing with his holy sword to the fallen hero.
who at hear this, he started to laugh.
"Hahaha, that joke, apparently your superiors said you some weird stuff about me."
"This is a not joke!"
"Certainly, this is a bad and important situation, but well, hello Sophia how are you?"
"shut up don't call me by my name, traitor."
said Sophia with hate.
this was a blow to his heart
"Sophia..., please answer me something, sincerely, ever you considered me a friend?"
"You, a friend?, that is a joke, how I could be friends with someone like you?, a pervert and scared crybaby, I'm sorry for you but I only pretended to be your friend by my fathers' order 'he is important resource don't let him get discouraged' he said me, you can't imagine how much I had to endure not to hit you each time when you see me with you leering eyes or when I have to hear you pagan prayers."
She was cruel, and this cruel sincerity could pierce the fallen hero's hurt heart and break it even more, provoking inevitably, that some tears escaped from his eyes.
"He, you see, you are a baby cry."
"Enough Sophia, he is evil but still is a human, hero, please surrender yourself without resistance, you still have the opportunity of redemption."
said the hero Siro acting like a true hero.
"redemption?, which redemption?, not Siro, today, I going to defeat you, yes, carrying with a big pain I going to defeat all of you, my old friends, yes friends, not good friends, but friends that once smile together after a hard battle"
"Sincerity was jealous of you, your friendship, but still I respected you like a good people, not, still I respect you and consider you good people that fought for a greater good, even with its bad things"
"for this motive, I going to enjoying to defeat you at the same time that I going to make me sad."
Said sincerely the fallen hero with tears in his eyes.
"Alright, I received your feelings hero, and this also makes me sad, but you're wrong about something, hero, we going to defeat you, you are strong is true, but you are alone, we are not, and neither we are weak, with our friendship and power, we are going to defeat you."
"No"
the fallen hero got up from the altar.
"You are weak, while you depended on convenience help, convenience powers, resources, and easy missions were only was you, I not"

"I didn't receive help, I had that realize miracles."
"I didn't receive convenience power in bad situations, is more, I lost my divine power, but I trained to get my strength and I used my skills to make an exit from the desperate situations."
"Resources, bullshit, as much, I had trained soldiers, and regular armor and swords, nothing of mystic things, I had to abandon the use of sword and make a mana sword to defeat the monster."
"Mission? infiltration, go alone in a dungeon with a party, duels in a coliseum, negotiations? Not, I only know unreasonable battlefields where plenty of monsters and demons charge against me and my soldiers, one-to-one, a just battle, do those things not exist for me."
"I don't wait by a miracle, I'm the miracle, in guard hero."
And with this said, the fallen hero, convoke his mana sword, and immediately charged against Siro.
Siro defended with his holy sword, but a thing about the mana sword is that this can change its form, so, the mana sword curved his edge to try to cut to Siro.
But Siro still was an experimented hero, he evaded this by taking a jump to the back.
On the other side, after this, the dwarf and the beastkid released a scissor attack on the fallen hero.
The fallen immediately jumped up for evaded, for now in the air, now he was going to be attacked by the elf's arrows and Sophia's fireball.
But the fallen hero, making an air barrier, managed to defend against this, landing behind of altar.
All this was only the beginning.
The fallen hero resumed his attacks, but on this occasion, now the hero's party was being defended by many shadow soldiers, invocations from the half-demon.
now was about twenty vs one, but this situation is not nothing new for the fallen hero, who without fear and dude, started to attack with his mana sword.
A slash to a shadow soldier, another for a party member, evaded an arrow, evaded a hit.
receive a hit, receive a magic hit, slash again.
the iron, the mana, the spell, and the miracles, went from one side to the other without mercy.
Sometimes the fallen hero managed to land a blow, and other times the party also managed to land a blow.
Both sides were balanced.
Both sides were going lost stamina and receive hurt at the same measure.
their powers ended by destroying the temple, but they continued their battle.
but in a moment the situation changed.
[I feel rare]
the hero and his friends started to feel sick, started to feel nausea, and dizzy.
for this, the fallen hero took this opportunity to attack with fierceness at the hero's party.
"Bastard!, Lira uses 'Cure' in us, this bastard did a sound spell to get sink us."
Scream Sophia who knows first hand this spell.
but the fallen hero, waited for this, in that moment, he perform a sonic bomb that literally burst the hero's eardrums and of his friends.
this took them by surprise to the hero's party, but Lira the holy maiden was a professional, immediately she try to do a healing spell unfortunately, the pain and sickness, delay her spell, and enough time for the fallen hero to get closed her and with an air canon, through her to fly, ending by a crash with a pillar, falling unconscious as result.
unfortunately, this spell still made affect a manage to heal them all, but only his physical wounds.
then now his hearing returned, but still there were sick and without a holy maiden to heal them.
"Then hero, I suppose that having a great holy maiden, you don't have learned any area heal spell, you do?"
The fallen hero mocked his counterpart, he know that the Siro don't have any area heal spells only an area purification spell, but this only worked with evil energy.
Obviously after to see defeated his friend and been mocked by the fallen hero, Siro with a war cry began a fierce assault together with his friends.
The assault was effective and the hero and his friends managed to give him many hits.
But the fallen hero was still standing, still, he was fighting as usual, while the hero's party after their glory moment, now the sickness and the tired started to blunt their movement and decrease their forces.
for this motive, the fallen hero, one for one started to be defeated.
when only remains Siro, Sophia, and the half-demon, Siro said.
"We retried, Kralia, please."
With this, he ordered the half-demon, to order her invocations to carrier at his unconscious partners.
But the fallen hero didn't was going to allow this, he do a horrible sound with a spell that paralyze everyone for a moment, sufficient time, for him to approach the half-demon, and with a hit send her to dreamland.
the shadows soldiers were gone, only remained two, and after a time, only remained the hero.
"Well hero, is the moment of an epic duel as you like it, you don't believe this?"
"bastard!"
Started the last duel, but the hero doesn't could follow the step, he was very sick and tired, by the contrary, the fallen hero was still with many wounds and his right arm burned he continue fighting as usual.
The fallen hero was played with him.
But in a moment, Siro obtained energy, velocity, defense, and strong to the biggest levels.
"Oh, this must be a miracle, but this will be sufficient?"
Said the fallen hero without being surprised, he waited for some miracle from Siro part, he was famous for this.
but although this was expected, the fallen hero was in a bad situation.
The Siro's slashes were terrible and accurate.
The fallen hero only could defend hardly this, but the worse was about to arrive.
Siro, using his big and holy force, imbued with divine power his holy sword and shot up a big divine energy slash directly at the fallen hero, the same last attack that defeated the demon king, not, it was more powerful.
its power is so bigger that raises a smoke screen at the same time that Siro losing quickly his power and stamina until finished kneeling while supporting himself with his holy sword.
"I won...."
Siro said sure and relieved of his victory.
but
"Not, I won."
When the smoke accented, appears the fallen hero, standing up without his upper body armor, and with a big cut from his left shoulder to his left hip.
"You know, this hit would be fatal for a demon, but I'm a very healthy human, this is the problem with the holy power, its effectiveness is very specific hahaha"
"You... how..."
"I said you, you should have heard me, I not burst again their eardrums, only because I want that you hear me."
"You..."
"you..., you..., is you unique word?"
Then the fallen hero closed the distance, and with a kick, he throw far away the holy sword, and Siro fall down to the floor.
"Let me explain to you the situations, I needed hostages."
"Why..."
"For this."
Said the fallen hero, and with his mana sword, pierced his right lung
"Ahhh!"
"Then, lady Rimaria, the supposed goddess of this place, this is easy, I did my job as the hero and want to return to my home, if you don't return me to my home I swear that I going to conquer this kingdom, and I going to erase your name and at your friends from the history."
"And I don't have fear from you, if would you like to make me dead or you would have done it already."
"SO, WHAT. IS. YOUR. ANSWER?"
Said the fallen hero while twisting his sword.
The fallen hero stopped talking and now only a groan of pain from Siro was listening in that place.
Until that.
"ALRIGHT"
A spectral and cold female voice resounded on the place.
And consequently, the fallen hero lost his conscience
He had disappeared.
