Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

Aldred stared at the projection of a map with red dots all over them. These red dots were Brago’s individual ships, and the green dots were the allies.

He was currently looking for any ships that were isolated from the others. He would then destroy them and take their parts. It would be useful for him if they could analyze the materials, and found its weakness.

But it seemed like the enemy already understood his intention and gathered the ships in a group of four. It’d be hard for him to destroy one without risking major injury.

“Aldred.” Edeline suddenly entered the room. “Thignia is asking for your help.”

“What are they planning to do?”

“There are warships that is heading towards the west from Yevileria. The vampires wanted to destroy them.”

“That would be difficult,” Aldred said. “I am afraid a lot of Diamond Ranks will die.”

“If we all do nothing, the warships will advance into our territory.”

Aldred sighed. “I will think of something.” 𝘪.𝑐ℴ𝘮

Although all the nations waged war on Selia, no one really dare to send their forces directly to stop the warships. These warships were weapons of destruction that could kill Diamond Ranks. Even hundreds of thousands of Gold Rank would be nothing for them.

“Also, they said that they know where Brago is.”

Aldred turned and looked at her. “Where?”

If he could kill Brago, this war would end a lot quicker.

“In the middle of Yevileria. He is commanding and managing the warships from there.”

“So that’s why they are so daring. What about the others? Are we not going to tell them this. They already know, their task is to distract the other forces from reaching you.”

“They rely on me too much.”

“They already know you killed Victor.”

“Damn… news spread fast.” Aldred sighed. “I will be going now.”

Edeline nodded. “Be careful out there.”

Aldred vanished and appeared on a vast plain. The breeze made the grass dance. The warships were a few kilometers from here.

Before they reached this place, Aldred had to set up a trap.

He floated down, landing on the ground. Raising his palm, a large amount of mana came out of his pores and formed into an orb on his palm.

The orb fell to the ground and the earth covered it.

Suddenly, Aldred flew into the sky, and mana orbs came out of his body at a constant rate. Dropping hundreds of mana orbs every second.

They all fell and hid under the ground.

After he was satisfied with his work, Aldred vanished and entered a campsite.

The guards were shocked by his sudden appearance and were about to confront him. But then they saw the insignia on his clothes and realized that he was the legendary Emperor of the Ceraisian Empire. The one who killed Victor, and took over the most powerful Empire for himself. He even had many names such as the Lord of the Undead and Fire Monarch which made him so fearsome.

With that in their mind, they did not dare to even look at his eyes, afraid they might offend him in some way. So they simply stepped to the side and bowed.

Aldred walked pass them and entered the biggest tent in the camp.

There, a beautiful woman was leaning on a table as she was staring intently at a map placed on it.

“Are you Lyra?” Aldred asked.

Lyra looked up, her beautiful face shining. She looked more like a world class model rather than a powerful general. But her eyes said otherwise. Though they looked beautiful, it contained strength. No one would dare to underestimate her if they took a look at those pair of eyes.

“You are a bit late,” Lyra said. “Your Majesty,” she said the last two words with a little bit of disdain.

“No need to call me that. Aldred is fine.”

Lyra frowned for a fraction of a second. She had never met a royal member to be so humbling. Even nobles wanted everyone to call them by their title.

But the Emperor of the Ceraisian Empire was not? Impossible. He must have hidden intention. 𝑖.𝑐ℴ𝑚

“What is your plan?” Aldred asked.

“We are told to distract the enemy, and while we do that, you will destroy the warships.”

Lyra looked at Aldred with doubt and a slight anger. She had received a small piece of material of the warships, and she knew that it was tough to destroy even for her.

But could Aldred really destroy them? He did not look much stronger than her.

“You better be prepared then,” Aldred said. “The warships are going to arrive in a few minutes.”

“I don’t believe that you can destroy these ships. Save your energy and stay here.”

Aldred smiled. “Who do you think give everyone all of those scrap pieces? Enough talk, let us execute our mission.”

The warships sailed on the ground. Rising up the hills as if they were waves, leaving a giant trail behind their wake.

“That’s the warships. Distract them, and I will destroy them for you. Remember, don’t try to attack. Focus on dodging their weapons.” Aldred said as he, Lyra and the rest of the soldiers hid behind a hill.

“Cih! Attack!”

Lyra rushed forward. Blood energy suddenly formed around her palm and she released towards the warships.

The blood energy expanded and engulfed a ship.

“Yes!” Lyra’s eyes lit up, thinking that her power worked. She might could not destroy the ship, but she could kill the sailors.

Her excitement fade when a powerful beam pierced through the blood energy and removed it from existence.

The cannons them aimed towards her.

“Shit!”

Bright light burst out of the cannons, firing a powerful beam directly at her.

She thought she was going to die until she heard a sigh and suddenly she vanished from her original spot and appeared atop a hill.

“Didn’t I told you to focus on dodging the weapons?” Aldred said as he stared straight in her eyes.

Lyra looked at the man that saved her. Suddenly, she realized that she was in his arms. “Get off of me.”

“Stay here,” Aldred said before he disappeared.

Lyra frowned. She felt her heart beating. “Fuck. So embarrassing! How dare he used me to act cool!”

Meanwhile, Aldred snapped his fingers and all the mana crystals in the ground shone and let out a large explosions. It was so powerful that its shock waves leveled hills and created a huge crater still with dancing fire all over the place.

The ships were terribly damaged, but it was fine. Even the sailors on the ship was protected by a powerful barrier that let them survive. They all were shaken, but they stood up and got back to work.

At least that was what they were supposed to do until they saw a giant flaming fist coming from above. And not just one, but thousands of them were falling from above like meteor shower.

“Destroy those flame fists!”

The cannons pointed upwards and began firing powerful beams at the flame fist, destroying each one with only one shot.

They continued to fire at the sky, not realizing the real threat came from below.
