Nazarick Rimuru

Until that day, the real living came here.

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

After listening to the team's discussion after the successful crusade that the undead might not be the culprit behind the destruction of the country, Ibiruai summoned up her courage and appeared in front of the team.

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

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

She hoped that the team in front of her, which was so strong in her eyes, would give her hope, and in return, she wanted her to give everything she could.

But all who heard her plea were silent, even Ligurido Belz Gaulan, who was the most adept at the magic of the dead.

The undead who have turned into zombies, their existence is irreversible, this is common sense that everyone on the continent is clear.

Even killing them first and then using resurrection magic to resurrect them can't be reversed, it's not a negative state, their race is no longer undead.

The cruel truth made Ibiruai stunned in place, and she was silent for a long time, and at this moment, the captain of this team stepped forward and invited her to join her in the crusade against the demon gods that were ravaging the continent.

"Maybe you need to go out and have a look, we may not be able to find a way now, but this world is very big, maybe in a corner of the continent, you can find the hope you are looking for.

She accepted the team's invitation to join them on adventures, grow stronger together, develop her own unique magic, and take down a worm demon god who was endangering the continent.

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

Because of her status, Ibiruai often acts in a mask and rarely shows her face to the public, so she is not widely admired by the world like her other teammates.

But she didn't care about any of that, what she cherished now was the small hope that might exist somewhere on the continent, and the friendship that came from being with the team members along the way.

It's just that any good things around her seem to fade, and this journey still comes to an end.

During the final battle of the squad, the captain whom she revered dies and refuses to be resurrected after death.

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

Until the world-famous [Thirteen Heroes] dispersed, she still didn't find that glimmer of hope.

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

Originally, Shirokane was going to hide it from the girl, but he was afraid that the girl would be too impulsive to find out 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 cause of a series of tragedies in the country of the Rainbow Pupil People and its surrounding countries was the rare existing true dragon king in the world who was as famous as the platinum dragon king - the Immortal Coffin Dragon King.

That guy's strength is not weaker than platinum, and he has a very strong origin magic.

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

Because Ibiruai had mentioned that maybe the team would work together to deal with the mastermind behind the scenes, and the undead could be reversed, Platinum was worried that Ibiruai would go directly to the Immortal Coffin Dragon King on impulse.

As a true dragon king, it is impossible for him to help others deal with his own kind.

Platinum tells Ibirai the identity of the murderer, so that he can let go of the desire for revenge on the murderer and find other hopes.

Ibirai, who had acted with the Platinum Dragon King in the past, knew in her heart the horrors of the True Dragon King and the Origin Magic.

She endured the pain in her heart and kept it to the bottom of her heart, trying to continue to find other hopes.

After the team disbanded, the members returned to their former countries, and Ibirauai occasionally visited their countries, but it wasn't long before she continued to circle the continent.

Perhaps she knew that this glimmer of hope was too small, and that Ibirai herself was already unsure whether she would succeed.

After a long time, Ibiruai returned to her homeland, and after nearly a hundred years, the land did not change in the slightest, and there was no sign of invasion in the treasure house, but a thick layer of ash was piled up, and she settled down temporarily in her former home.

And so it went on for a few more years, until Rimuru arrived.
