Nazarick Rimuru

Until that day, the real living came here.

It was a squad of humans, giants, and forest elves, who entered the palace and easily killed the powerful undead who had invaded the palace.

After hearing that the squad had discussed after the successful crusade that the culprit of the destruction of the country might not be the undead, she plucked up the courage and appeared in front of the squad.

Initially, the adventurers unsurprisingly sword at her because of her undead relationship, but during her battles and conversations with the squad members, or the squad leader felt that she was not hostile, let her team stop.

Seeing that the captain in front of her could accept herself, Ibiruai took the initiative to tell these people about her experience, perhaps, there was a glimmer of possibility, they could help her find a way to free these undead.

She expected the powerful team in front of her to give her hope, and in return, she thought she could give everything she could.

But everyone who heard her appeal was silent, even Ligurido Belz Goland, who was the best at the magic of the dead.

The undead who turn into zombies, their existence is irreversible, this is common knowledge clear to everyone on the continent.

Even if they kill first and then use resurrection magic to revive them, this is not a negative state, their race is already undead.

The cruel truth made Ibiruai stunned in place, she was silent for a long time, and at this moment, the captain of this team stepped forward and invited her to fight the demon god who was ravaging the continent.

“Maybe you need to go out and see, we may not find a way now, but the world is big, maybe in a corner of the continent, you can find the hope you are asking for.”

She accepts the squad’s invitation to adventure with them, become stronger together, develop her own unique magic, and solve a worm demon god that threatens the continent.

The members of their squad are all powerful, so they are praised by later generations, and they are known as the “Thirteen Heroes”.

Because of her status, Ibiruai often wears a mask and rarely appears to the outside world, so she is not widely admired by the world like her other teammates.

But she doesn’t care about that, and now she cherishes the small hope that may exist somewhere on this continent, and the friendship that was born from the companionship of the squad members along the way.

It’s just that any good that seems to be around her will fade, and this journey still comes to an end.

During the squad’s final battle, her revered captain dies and refuses to be resurrected after her death.

Because of the death of the captain, although they won the battle, everyone lost interest.

Until the world-famous [Thirteen Heroes] scattered, she still did not find that ray of hope.

Finally, the Platinum Dragon King, who was also one of the [Thirteen Heroes] with her, found her.

Originally, Shirogane was going to keep it hidden from the girl, but he was afraid that the girl would be too impulsive to investigate the truth herself, so he told Ibruai everything he knew.

Although he didn’t know how to redeem the undead, he knew who the murderer was.

It turned out that the real root cause of a series of tragedies in the country of the rainbow people and its surrounding countries was the True Dragon King – the Immortal Coffin Dragon King, which is one of the few existing true dragon kings in the world with the same name as the platinum dragon king.

That guy’s strength is not weaker than that of platinum, and he has a very powerful origin magic.

As well as Shirogane, he himself and that guy are both members of a group called the Six Dragons Alliance.

Because Ibiruai mentioned earlier that maybe the squad solved the mastermind behind the scenes, and the undead could be reversed, Shirogane was worried that Ibiruai would go directly to find the Immortal Coffin Dragon King on impulse.

As a True Dragon King, he couldn’t help others deal with his own clan.

Shirogane tells Ibiruai the identity of the murderer, precisely so that he can put aside the idea of revenge on the murderer and find other hopes.

Ibiruai, who had acted with the Platinum Dragon King in the past, knew in his heart the horror of the True Dragon King and the Origin Magic.

She endured the pain in her heart and sank this matter to the bottom of her heart, trying to continue looking for other hopes.

After the squad disbanded, the team returned to their former country, and Ibiruai occasionally visited their country, but it didn’t take long for her to continue circling the continent.

Perhaps she herself knows that this glimmer of hope is too small, and Ibiruai herself is not sure whether she can succeed.

After going around in circles, after a long time, Ibiruai returned to her home, which had not returned for nearly a hundred years, but the land had not changed in the slightest, and there was no sign of invasion in the treasure vault, but a thick layer of ash, and she temporarily settled in her former home.

And so it went on for a few more years, until the arrival of Rimlu.
