Chapter 17 - Destruction

As Rissy and I completed the final quest for the Future King, we were greeted with a loud fanfare and applause. The Future King rose from his throne, and he approached us with a smile.

"Well done, adventurers," the Future King said. "You have proven yourself to be worthy of saving our city from destruction. And now, it is time for me to explain the true purpose of the quests that I have given you."

Rissy and I looked at each other, confused and curious. We had thought that the quests were simply for our own gain, but it seemed that there was something bigger at play.

"As you may know, our city is in grave danger," the Future King explained. "In one year's time, the Great Demon Emperor will attack our city, and he will destroy it unless we can stop him. And that is where you come in."

Rissy and I were stunned by the Future King's words. We had never heard of the Great Demon Emperor, and we had no idea how we could possibly stop him.

"But how can we stop the Great Demon Emperor?" I asked. "He is a powerful and ruthless enemy, and we are only two players."

The Future King smiled, and he reached into his robes. He pulled out a crystal, and he handed it to us.

"This crystal contains the power of the Dragon's Heart," the Future King said. "It will grant you even greater powers and abilities, and it will help you in your fight against the Great Demon Emperor. Use it wisely, and you may be able to save our city from destruction."

Rissy and I accepted the crystal, and we felt its powerful magic coursing through our veins. We were amazed by its power, and we knew that we had a chance to save the city from the Great Demon Emperor.

"We will not fail you, Future King," Rissy said, bowing to him. "We will use the power of the Dragon's Heart to defeat the Great Demon Emperor, and we will save our city from destruction."

The Future King nodded, pleased with our determination. "I have faith in you, adventurers," he said. "Now go, and prepare for your battle against the Great Demon Emperor. The fate of our city rests on your shoulders."

Rissy and I left the Future Castle, determined to save our city from the Great Demon Emperor. We trained and prepared, using the power of the Dragon's Heart to become even more powerful. And as the year passed, we grew stronger and more skilled, ready to face the Great Demon Emperor and save our city from destruction.
