The Tale of Hero Alice's Social Death - Chapter 64
Chapter 64: Hero’s Sword’s Humiliation
With God’s panties in hand, Alice got kicked back to reality by the embarrassed and furious white-haired loli.
Alice didn’t see what the Loli Goddess did exactly. All she knew was that her world had started spinning rapidly when the Loli Goddess kicked her. Then, when the world stopped spinning, she found that her consciousness had already returned to Aird’s room, her right hand still holding onto Aird’s wrist. Moreover, bundled in her left hand was the Loli Goddess’s warm panties. Fortunately, she had held the panties with her left hand. Otherwise, holy light would be flooding Aird’s room right now.
But Aird really sleeps like a rock…
After letting go of Aird, Alice felt her mana and strength vanishing instantly. Her razor-sharp perception also gradually disappeared. However, although Alice had returned to becoming a helpless little girl again, she was no longer worried about her future since she now knew that her body possessed potential rivaling the Hero.
The only thing that concerned Alice now was how much of a heavy sleeper Aird was. She couldn’t help but suspect that Aird might become totally unaware of all dangers around her once she fell asleep. Moreover, thinking back on it now, if the Loli Goddess had been communicating with Aird in her sleep all this time, Aird might not have heard any of the Loli Goddess’s hints at all. It would also explain why Aird remained ignorant of her identity as the Hero.
Aird was probably the first Hero to not hear God’s voice because of how excellent her sleep quality was.
However, Alice considered this a positive situation. At the very least, Aird’s unresponsiveness allowed Alice to communicate with God without interruption. Had Aird woken up, Alice’s right hand would stop considering Aird as a weapon, and the Word of God ability would also stop working. At that time, not only would Alice have her conversation with God halted abruptly, but she would also have to explain to Aird why she had snuck into her room in the middle of the night.
Anyway, God’s panties don’t look any different from normal panties.
When Alice looked at the panties in her left hand, she felt that it looked no different from the white panties she wore when she first transmigrated to this world. She even suspected that the panties she wore at the time were actually God’s panties, which would also explain their similarities.
Of course, even if Alice wanted to check for any differences, she couldn’t do so now. It’d be safer if she only checked it after she had returned to the human realm. While the Four Heavenly Kings had been tricked into believing that she had light affinity, it was a different story for other demons. For the moment, it would be best if only a few people knew about her light affinity. Otherwise, the risk of her identity as the Hero getting exposed would increase.
But the demons sure are pitiful. They think that the Demon King’s Power is helping them conquer the human realm, but, in reality, all it is doing is destroying this world’s laws.
Alice had come across many demons during her stay at Flaman’s manor. Meanwhile, contrary to her expectations, the demons’ society was surprisingly peaceful.
While the demon realm might be a place where the strong preyed on the weak, most demons were merely ordinary people with slightly greater tendencies for violence. Weak demons could still live normal lives if they attached themselves to strong demons, while strong demons would treat their subordinates fairly to ensure that their subordinates worked efficiently. Overall, the demons’ society was fairly balanced.
While demon society might seem strange in the eyes of humans, inhabitants of the demon realm found nothing wrong with it. Apart from the people here constantly complaining about the terrible living environment, the demon realm was not much different from the human realm. It wasn’t a barbaric place at all.
Hence, if possible, Alice still hoped to find a solution to the demon realm’s pollution. Even if doing so wouldn’t remove all conflicts between the human and demon realms, it would remove the main cause of war at the very least.
There is also the Demon King’s Power… I wonder where it is currently?
While pondering over this question, Alice walked back to her room and retrieved the Hero’s Sword from her pouch. According to the Loli Goddess, she had already received the right to use the Hero’s Sword. In other words, her right hand should no longer consider the Hero’s Sword to be useless scrap metal.
…
[Weapon: Hero’s Sword – Unnamed]
[Quality: Law]
[Effect: Strength +1]
[Additional Effect: None]
…
Alice was stunned. She could see that the Hero’s Sword had changed. Apart from its name, its quality had also gone from being Garbage to Law. In other words, the Hero’s Sword now had a rating befitting of its status.
But why is its effect still Strength +1? The additional effect section is also empty. Did that Loli Goddess trick me?
Alice swung the Hero’s Sword a few times. Then, when she felt that it was no different from when its quality was Garbage, confusion immediately filled her mind. Logically, after a weapon’s quality had changed, its effects should change as well.
“Or is there some special requirement I need to meet to use the Hero’s Sword’s power… Ha!”
After mumbling a few words to herself, Alice kicked the Hero’s Sword and let out a shout. She wanted to test and see if the Hero’s Sword was voice-controlled.
As soon as Alice shouted, the Hero’s Sword immediately changed, and a torrent of power poured into Alice’s body through the sword’s hilt.
Hm? It’s actually voice-controlled?
Alice skeptically looked at the Hero’s Sword. Then, her right hand updated the information it projected into her mind.
…
[Weapon: Hero’s Sword – Ha]
[Quality: Law]
[Effect: Strength +8000, Constitution +8000, Speed +8000, Spirit +8000, Control +8000, Mana +8000]
[Additional Effect:

Holy Cross Slash (Active Skill. Releases a cross slash composed of light to shatter the target’s soul.)]
…
Alice’s heart thumped when she saw the change to the Hero’s Sword’s name.
