When the headband was taken off, Julius realized that he had done something incredible.
Under the girl's guidance — or rather, under her control — he took the item that only the chosen one, the hero, could get.
Julius felt that everything that happened in front of him was like an unreal dream, but the cold touch of the headband was so real that it didn't feel like a dream.
"I took it off …" Julius murmured.
He didn't resist the girl's tough attitude and guidance because he really couldn't find a reason to refuse.
The girl let Julius grab the headband with both hands, and then let go of her hands with a smile on her face. Julius didn't know if it was an illusion, but the girl's smile was even brighter.
"From now on, it belongs to you.
If a hero doesn't have a few treasures in his hands, it would be too shabby. "
"But, this thing looks very valuable …" Julius was now a little nervous. He held the headband in his hand, and even his cross-shaped sword was placed on the altar.
He now looked like a child who didn't know what to do, although he was still a child — in the eyes of Olga and the others.
The girl shook her head. "If you want to be a hero, then you won't treat things differently because of their value.
The so-called hero, what kind of existence are they? "The girl retreated a little, and then slowly circled Julius.
Because she was floating, Julius felt like a pitiful person who was being haunted by a female ghost, although this female ghost wasn't scary at all.
"To be able to drink coarse wine in wooden cups with the commoners, to be able to drink mellow wine from goblets with the nobles, and to be able to drink the fine wine bestowed by the king with a normal heart … This is what a hero should be like.
This headband, whether it's worth a thousand gold or a steel plate, it doesn't affect its importance to a hero … "When she said this, the girl saw Julius's expression, and then laughed." What am I saying? It's completely irrelevant. You don't seem to be nervous because this treasure is too valuable. Do you think you're not ready? "
Julius had to admit that this girl who looked exactly like Lulunaka was like a worm in his stomach, and she knew what he was thinking now.
"Yes, I think this might be a little too early for me, like me who almost …" Julius swallowed the rest of his words. It was always difficult to talk about his past mistakes, especially when it concerned his life.
"Can I really get this?"
Julius's words sounded like he was asking the girl, but also like he was asking himself.
"You should have more confidence in yourself." The girl said, "People always have all kinds of troubles, heroes are no exception.
I think you just can't get used to it for a while. "
She approached Julius and held Julius's hand again. "Come on, feel what kind of power you have."
When her fingers brushed the engravings on the headband, the engravings began to emit a purple light.
Looking at the headband in his hand, Julius's eyes widened.
Before he could react, the purple light had already enveloped his entire body.
His whole body seemed to be plated with a layer of purple light, and the edges of his pupils were dyed with a thin layer of purple.
"What did you do, this feeling …" Julius said. He felt that his heart was suddenly filled with power. It was something he lacked a moment ago — confidence, decisiveness, courage …
"Let you feel this power." The girl smiled. "Do you feel it?
It's not a bad thing. It can instill hope in you, and not unrestrained power. "
Julius's current feeling was very much like what the girl said. It was as if the power called "hope" had filled his whole body.
He did not lose his reason and will, nor did he feel that exaggerated increase in power.
What this headband gave him was the power of the mind.
He felt that his mind had never been so clear, and his heart was filled with strong feelings.
Those feelings, the desire to save the people who were suffering, the people in danger, the family and the country in danger …
"This is the power you were talking about." Julius could not help but smile. He had never felt so calm and excited in his heart.
These were two feelings that should not exist at the same time, but Julius could clearly feel that they did exist in his mind.
Calmness brought clarity, and excitement brought activity. If he were to fight with Louver one on one again, he believed that Louver would be defeated in a single blow.
There was no mercy to the wicked, and his clear mind made him not make the mistake of underestimating his enemy.
Julius had to admit that this feeling was very good, and it made people feel unimaginable. Was this the power of a treasure?
Or was this the power that a hero should have?
"I am very happy that you can accept this power that you deserve without any hindrance."
The girl continued to say, holding Julius's hand with both hands, so that Julius could hold the headband tighter.
"You did not go against your heart, and you did not disappoint the person who chose you."
"The person who chose me." Julius knew that the girl was referring to Lulunaka.
Under the effect of the headband, he knew that the girl was not trying to curry favor with him, nor was she deceiving him. This was indeed her true feelings.
Her sincerity made Julius feel a little ashamed. Just a moment ago, he was still suspecting that the girl's origin was unknown.
"Yes, she chose you. That is why you are standing here today, and not someone else.
And this choice of hers makes me feel very happy, because the one who came is a boy like you, and not a scheming adult. "The girl said with a smile," A pure hero's story always begins when you are young.
Come, put this headband on. This way, you can experience and obtain a stronger power, a power that only belongs to you. "
Julius did not know what reason he had to refuse the girl.
Just as she said, this was already a power that belonged to him, and it was a power that he could control.
Right now, he did not feel that he was being affected by this wonderful power. On the contrary, this power made his mind clearer, allowing him to easily control this power.
Julius raised the headband up to his forehead.
As long as he raised it a little higher, it would fall on his head, and this beautiful headband would be put on by him.
"If this is the power that I deserve, then I should accept it, and not refuse it."
"Yes, this is a hero, this is what a hero should do!"
The girl's voice became a little high. Julius could understand why she was so excited, just like how he was in a high mood right now. But at the same time, Julius's heart was calm and extremely calm, so he did not reveal his feelings like the girl.
He could even feel that there was another him, looking at this scene from a different perspective, about to witness it all together with the girl.
Julius raised the headband up high, and put it down on his head …
A thunderous voice exploded in his heart — — Stop, don't do this, Julius!
Julius felt that this voice almost made his heart explode. Even the loudest thunder was not as shocking as this voice.
His hands shook, and with a quiver, he took off the headband and put it on his chest again.
This voice did not shake his eardrums, but directly appeared in his heart, in his mind, and he was very familiar with this voice.
This was Olga's voice, but Olga was not in his field of vision.
"Olga?"
Julius murmured. Hearing his words, the girl frowned, but did not say anything.
You have been bewitched, boy!
Open your eyes and see if everything in front of you is real!
"What are you talking about?"
Olga's tone sounded a little anxious, which made Julius's originally calm and high heart become a little flustered. "Everything in front of me is not real?" The purple light in Julius's eyes slowly dissipated.
Open your eyes and take a good look at what is in front of you!
Julius's eyes burst out with white light.
This power, which Julius did not know where it came from, rushed into his eyes, and even his brain was touched by this light.
His pupils could no longer be seen, only a vast expanse of white light.
Julius shouted, not because the light entering his brain from his eyes caused him pain, but because the impact made him unable to endure.
The pure white light took away Julius's vision.
When his vision recovered, what appeared in front of him was a completely different scene.
In front of him was a hellish scene.
