This meant that at this moment, all the defensive magic power required by the entire shield was controlled solely by Zorn.
"What's wrong, Zacari, don't you recognize me?" Zorn effortlessly maintained the operation of the magic array with one hand, while his other hand waved a few times in front of Zacari's bewildered and dazed eyes.
"Ah~~ Ah~ No, of course I recognize you…" The second sun hanging high in the sky had long since left an indelible mark deep within his heart, becoming an eternal symbol of justice in his mind!
It was this light of justice, shining like the brightest star in the night sky, that guided him through the mist and ultimately found the path that truly belonged to him!
Since that arduous mission with the Dark Sky Guild, he had pursued this light like a star-chaser, running step by step until now.
Finally, he arrived at this place—the source where the light was born.
At this moment, Zorn was fully focused on maintaining the magic array's operation, while pleasantly chatting with Zacari about their first encounter and their various experiences after successfully subjugating the Dark Sky Guild.
They talked very happily.
Since then, Zacari and Sonya have always upheld the righteous path in their hearts, tirelessly protecting the peace of the common people, and actively combating the illegal activities of Dark Guilds.
It was precisely because of this that they quickly rose to the headquarters and received high regard.
However, even at the headquarters, they inevitably encountered suppression from other factions.
But fortunately, the sense of justice emanating from them made it impossible for those who wanted to attack them to do so.
Suddenly, the explosion ended, and the smoke slowly dissipated.
Immediately after, Zorn proudly raised a hand and lightly snapped his fingers.
In an instant, the surging energy transformed into countless shimmering light points, slowly drifting to the ground.
"This is Lord Zorn's current strength!" Zacari was extremely excited, his eyes sparkling with bright light, as if he saw infinite possibilities in the future.
However, just then, he suddenly felt his clothes being gently tugged.
Zacari turned his head in confusion, and what met his eyes was the innocent smile of a little girl.
"Thank you, big brothers of the guard team! You are so handsome!" The little girl said in a clear and melodious voice.
Her eyes were filled with admiration and gratitude.
Her words were like the warm sunshine in spring, instantly penetrating Zacari's heart, making him feel a warm current surge through him.
Zacari's face showed a relieved smile. He bent down, patted the little girl's head, and gently said: "You're welcome, little cutie. This is what we should do."
Just as Zacari was about to turn his head to tell the little girl that Lord Zorn also contributed to this, his expression suddenly became somewhat astonished.
He turned his head, only to find that Lord Zorn's figure had vanished without a trace.
At this moment, on the hotel rooftop, Makarov finally completely relaxed. He turned around and looked at the relaxed Zorn, and couldn't help but tease: "What's wrong with you, kid? Are you shy or something!"
Zorn smiled slightly, not directly answering Makarov's question. His gaze passed over Makarov and fell on the defense team members below who were surrounded by the town residents.
Cheers, praises, and the aroma of food wafted from there, all serving as the best rewards for their heroic actions.
"Hehe, exactly!" First Generation Mavis also chuckled, her nimble eyes sparkling with a mischievous light, seemingly enjoying the relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Zorn quietly watched all of this. These honors did not belong to him personally, but to everyone who had put in effort to protect the town.
Zorn softly said, "These honors should rightfully belong to them, so why should I steal their thunder?" The corners of his mouth turned up, revealing a faint smile.
All honor belongs to anyone who works hard.
