Pope Romalis’s POV
"Finally, the long-awaited true Hero has appeared before us! Now, take a look!"
I projected the dignified image of Serena-sama that I had recorded on the crystal.
That noble figure... I couldn't help but stay sleepless, watching it from yesterday until today.
That is the only person, I, Pope Romalis serves.
Before, on our hearts, there is Goddess Ishtas-sama and the Divine Dragon Ceres-sama, who became her partner.
Only those two reside in our hearts.
Hero appears in each era, in its own time.
The last Hero was Zect-sama, but he is not our Hero-sama. He is the "Hero of those who lived in that era."
No matter how much we long for it, the Hero would never appear.
But at that moment I heard Edgar, the fake Hero, speak... I couldn't hide my surprise.
'A Hero exists in this world.'
That cannot be true.
Ever since Goddess Ishtas-sama said, "No more Heroes will appear in this world," 500 years have passed.
No one appeared.
For all Hero Absolutists, it has been like living in hell.
If the real one doesn't appear, they worship the fakes just because they are of the same bloodline.
But that is about to end.
"What is it, Your Holiness? Did you find another Hero Clan?"
"Well, isn't it fine to have one more?"
"You fool! We don't need those fakes anymore... Look at this!"
I accidentally raised my voice to the two of the Ten Archbishops.
""""""""""Wings of light...""""""""""
As a result, even the Ten Archbishops are surprised.
Of course... because it is the true Hero-sama.
"Your Holiness, is this an image of the Hero? Could it be... they really existed?"
"HeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHeroHero"
"The real Hero... Ah, I'm glad I lived to see them..."
"That's right, everyone. As you can see, the true Hero has appeared! Kohane is 'the country of Heroes.' From now on, I plan to reclaim Kohane from those commoners and dedicate it to the true Hero, Serena. What do you think?"
"Of course! Now that the true Hero has been born, those commoners are unnecessary!"
"In anticipation of this, I have been recording the irregularities of the Hero Clan... With this evidence..."
"Hmph, those people have been using the name of 'Hero' despite being fakes. There is plenty of evidence of their wrongdoings... Kohane was originally the country bestowed upon us by Ceres-sama, and then Ceres-sama was bestowing it to Zect-sama... Now that the real one has appeared, we should take it back."
"Then, from now on, Serena-sama will be the only Hero, and the Hero Clan will be exempt from the Hero Protection Law, to be treated as ordinary people... Is that acceptable?"
"Of course... Serena-sama is the Hero-sama we serve, after all."
"Yes, that's right! By sheer coincidence, his name differs by only one letter from Ceres-sama. This must be fate!"
"Serena-sama is the destined Hero"
At the present moment, Holy Church Nation is mostly composed of "Hero Absolutists" due to the prolonged absence of Heroes.
For Serena's sake, the Holy Church Nation has begun to move once again.
