Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 119 Interlude 4 – 2 – Happenings On The Beta Continent II



*KRIIN!!

To the wolf’s surprise, its jaws scratched off the scales on his neck, not even penetrating them by an inch.

Its surprise delayed it long enough for the boy to recover and grab the wolf with his claws and fling its body in the direction of the other one.

**PSHEWW!!!

His ears twitched as he tilted his head to the side just in time to dodge an arrow that came from behind.

**PSHEWW!! PSHEW!!!

There were more whistling noises as arrows came in from all directions, causing him to roll out of the way to avoid them.

Right before he could stand up, his senses tingled and he looked up to see an airborne orc with its glaive raised high.

‘Shit!’.

Gravity did its work as the orc crashed down towards the ground, simultaneously slamming its glaive in the boy’s direction.

**RUMBLEEE!!

To make matters worse, the clouds turned dark as blue lightning dropped from the skies, straight towards his head.

“RAAA!!!”

Another horned monster stabbed in his direction with its spear that was as thick as his forearm, its eyes red with rage as it seemed hell-bent on killing him.

‘First Step Awakening.’

**BOOOMMM!!!

A burst of magic power was released, generating a shockwave that slammed into the bodies of the two monsters and sent them flying.

The lightning was blocked by the barrier as it fizzled into nothingness.

**BOOMM!!

There was a loud sound as a streak of red light dashed into the air before crashing down onto the swarm of monsters, blitzing through them as the monsters perished one after another.

Naturally, this streak of red light was the horned boy dashing in through the monsters, his body covered by a layer of red-coloured magic power.

Each time he touched a monster, his claws tore through whatever armour it was wearing and slashed through their skins like a knife through butter.

He jumped atop some monsters and twisted their necks, moving on to the next and stabbing through their heads with his claws while his tail lopped off the necks of some.

Before the body of a troll he had beheaded could fall, he jumped off and landed on the club of an ogre that charged at him.

As soon as the ogre realised, he was on its club, its vision slanted as its head fell off its neck.

The boy caught the ogre’s severed head and slammed it into the mouth of a wolf that came at him with an open mouth.

He then sent a kick to the wolf’s stomach, sending it flying as he turned to catch the falling body of the ogre and lift it up into the air.

“HAAAAA!”

He screamed as he tossed the ogre’s body towards the trio of ogres who were charging at him from the side, before twisting his body to avoid the condensed elemental bullets that were fired by the spectres in the sky.

He kicked off the ground and dashed to another location but the spectres followed him while launching bullets of condensed attributed magic power, not caring for the other monsters.

He kicked the legs of an unfortunate troll and circled around it before stabbing into its head and ending its life with his claws.

**PUKK!!

Holding up its body, he hoped to use it as a shield against the spectre’s attacks but to his surprise, the condensed bullets of magic power effortlessly pierced through the troll’s skin.

‘WTF?!’

He abandoned the plan of using the corpses as a shield and was about to think of a new plan when he heard a voice in his head.

[Ten minutes are up, I’m joining in.]

◇ ◇ ◇

[Ten minutes are up, I’m joining in.]

The white-haired boy wearing priest robes sent a telepathic message to his horned partner as he scanned the battlefield with his eyes.

Surprisingly, he had not been attacked by any monster at all as they all had eyes on his partner, ignoring him as if he didn’t even exist.

‘So, he has used the First step already, huh? Using it Against this bunch of mobs shows how weak we are compared to our prime.’

He shook his head and was about to take a step forward when he heard a reply from his horned partner.

[Chill, let me end my ‘act’.]

Upon hearing that, he turned his gaze to the boy’s location and saw him in the middle of dozens of monsters as he suddenly got on all fours and opened his mouth.

His throat turned red as magic power condensed in it before being launched out as a beam shooting through the sky.

**BOOOOMMMMM!!!!!

The attack incinerated any and every monster it hit, including the higher levelled ones as even they were taken out without a trace left.

Even still, there was still an abundance of monsters charging at him with bloodshot eyes. They had various skills activated as various kinds of attacks were launched toward him without care for friendly fire.

He saw this and grinned as he jumped into the air, a pair of wings spreading out from his back and keeping him in the air as he stared at the monsters swarming the earth below him.

“Pfft. Look at them swarming like ants.”

Energy flowed to his eyes as the golden inscription in his irises glowed.

“KAAA???”

“WA?”

“GUH?”

“AWOO?”

All the monsters that had skills of various kinds active suddenly became unable to use their skills as they looked around in confusion.

They tried to reactivate their skills but saw that they could not. The smarter ones looked up and saw the boy’s golden eyes, their own eyes widening as they concluded he was somehow responsible for their inability to use skills.

“Prominence.”

The boy calmly called out as he looked at the monsters beneath him with a condescending gaze. Ambient magic power condensed behind him, bursting into a gigantic ball of flames that lit up the dimming evening sky.

The ball of flames hovered in the air behind him as he condensed more magic power into it while thinking about his slow casting time.

Meanwhile, the monsters below scrambled to run away as they saw the gigantic ball of flames that looked like a second setting sun to them.

Their senses screamed at them to run as they scampered away with all their might.

Sadly, the boy was not ready to let them go yet.

He stretched out his hand as he reduced its altitude, allowing the ball of flames to descend to the ground at breakneck speed.

It looked like there were two suns in the sky, just that one was getting closer by the second.

***KAAABBOOOOOMM!!!

**RUMBLLEE!!!

Within five seconds, the ball of flames crashed into the ground, resulting in an explosion that shook the earth.

Shockwaves spread out as the explosion generated a giant cloud of smoke that spread into the sky.

It took a minute for the explosion to calm down and the flames began receding.

“Well, that was an ‘explosive’ end.”

The young boy laughed as he saw the dozens of level-up notifications he was getting. Turning his gaze to his white-haired partner who was suddenly floating in the air beside him, he asked.

“I should have caught up to your level now, right?”

His white-haired, robe-covered friend shook his head upon hearing the question, before turning his gaze to the largest monster he could see in the distance.

It was a wolf with dark gray fur, standing at about five metres tall. It was one of the higher levelled intelligent monsters that created a barrier with magic to prevent itself from taking damage from the fireball attack.

The monster was also not affected by the status effect that was clouding the eyes of the other monsters with madness.

The golden crest in the boy’s dark irises glowed and his veil dropped to the floor as his body suddenly started expanding.

His arms bulged and thick dark gray fur grew from his skin, with two wolf ears appearing from the top of his head and a bushy tail sticking out from the bottom of his cassock.

There was a flash of light so bright that the surviving high-level monsters had to squint their eyes to avoid having their eyes blinded.

By the time the light died down, there was the figure of a five-meter-tall gray wolf floating in the air, having a scar above its left eye in the exact same place the wolf on the ground did.

The airborne wolf descended to the ground, landing with ease as a golden crest glowed in its dark eyes.

“AWOOOOOO!!!!!”

It howled loudly before crouching on the down low. In the next second, it leapt off the ground, crossing the hundreds of meters of distance between it and the other wolf instantly.

The other dark gray wolf growled menacingly as it rose its claws to attack the imposter wolf that jumped towards it.

Meanwhile, the horned black-haired boy watched all these happen with a smile on his face as the golden glow in his eyes dimmed.

He looked in the direction of the Alpha Continent as he thought about the rest of his companions.

“I hope they managed to get into their new bodies and adapt well. Because things are getting worse by the day.”

His gaze turned to the Dark continent’s direction, where a dimensional rift with a slowly breaking seal existed.
