Reincarnated Hero System

‘Damn Flight artifact.’

Those were his thoughts as swung his blade upwards, activating blade cannon and sensing out the fist-sized aura bullets that flew towards the airborne Terence.

Nevertheless, Terence avoided every bullet with nimble movement, despite the weight of the nearly 70inch long great sword in his hands.

He then shot towards the grounded Evan, covering his blade in his signature red aura as he slashed down.

‘Meeting his slash head-on is stupid, parrying is the only way.’

With those thoughts, Evan dragged his foot across the ground and rose his sword, tilting it at an angle the moment it clashed with Terence’s Earthen Sword.

The full force of Terence’s ‘B-‘ ranked strength stat bore down on Evan’s body, causing the hero’s face to contort in displeasure as he enhanced his body with body strengthening while spreading out a wave of aura.

Terence’s blade slid off the unforged and slammed into the ground, with Evan instantly taking his right hand off his blade and swinging it towards Terence’s chest.

‘Kuro!’

The magic power of the shadow spirit who was waiting for his master’s call, swept across Evan’s arm and coated it in a spiked gauntlet of dark light.

However, Terence’s eyes flashed as he instantly reacted, creating a small shield of stone to cover his chest.

**BAMM!!

The young hero’s fist slammed into the hastily created shield and broke it to pieces, before going on to hit Terence’s body and send him flying.

Sadly, the power behind the fist had decreased greatly so it didn’t deal as much damage as expected.

Evan’s shadow slithered and a long tentacle-like appendage shot out of it, intending to wrap around Terence’s leg, however, the man suddenly shot upwards as if gravity lost its effect on his body.

He ascended to a height of nearly ten metres in an instant, before shooting back down to the ground with his fist pulled back.

**DOONN!

Terence’s fist crashed into the empty ground where Evan just blinked out from, shattering the earth and causing shockwaves to surge in all directions.

He grabbed his sword and turned around, seeing Evan floating in the air with narrowed eyes, holding out his two arms towards Terence.

“Energy Blast!”

Two beams of golden aura shot towards Terence, however, he dodged them by flying out of the way at full speed.

‘!

That’s it.’

A grin appeared on Evan’s face even though his attacks missed their mark, with his mystic eyes glowing as he had finally discovered where Terence’s flight artifact was after reading the flow of magic power.

He created a foothold of ice in the air and kicked off it, dashing towards the great sword-wielding man who abruptly turned around and swung his blade at Evan who summoned the unforged.

**CLANGGG!!!

Evan’s sword collided with Terence’s blade, causing the young hero’s face to contort in pain as he felt more pain than when he had taken a full-strength swing at a rock in his home world.

His right arm was even worse as it hadn’t finished healing from his earlier recklessness of meeting Terence’s punch with his fist, but he grit his teeth and pulled his weapon back, allowing gravity to pull him to the ground and make him dodge Terence’s follow up horizontal swing.

Treetops turned to splinters of wood and pieces of leaves due to the force from Terence’s blade.

Evan on the other hand, landed on the ground safely, before turning tail and running in the opposite direction from Terence.

‘Why is he…?’

Terence raised his guard as he shot after Evan, following the young hero deeper into the forest.𝒪𝑣𝑙xt.𝗇𝓔t

‘Kayla, now!’

[Finally!]

The lightning spirit who had been given permission to act, screamed out in joy as she turned towards the unsuspecting Terence and activated a new skill she gained during her time in Shad Glua.

[Thunderclap!]

A large golden wall of lightning blocks appeared behind Terence, folding in a ‘clapping’ motion immediately after and dealing wide area lighting damage to any thing in front of it.

In this case, the shocked Terence was the ‘thing’ in front of it.

Just before the contractor of Greed was fully ‘clapped’, the young lighting spirit generated a ball of flames and tossed it towards him with all her strength.

**BOOM!! “AAAHHHH!!”

Terence’s body reflexively moved to block the ball of flames with his earthen sword, however, a beam of golden aura launched from Evan’s palm, collided with his arm and cause him to let go of his sword.

He was then set on fire and then ‘clapped’ by a wall of lightning that exploded upon contact with the flames.

What’s more, Kayla apparently hadn’t had enough, and even decided to toss multiple lightning bolts into the explosion, with a crazed smile forming on her face as Terence’s screams of pain reached her ears.

[Whew…]

Perhaps because she was done venting her frustrations on him, Kayla exhaled loudly as she wiped her forehead with her hand.

[Huh?]

However, the young spirit let out a voice of confusion in the moment after, as she suddenly lost all strength in her body and dropped altitude.

[Not again!]

A wave of red aura spread out omnidirectionally, with some of it hitting the surprised spirit and knocking her backwards.

“There!”

She heard Terence’s shout right before a figure covered in an armour of rocks burst out from the clouds of smoke and flames, shooting straight in her direction with his fist pulled back.

Kayla caught sight of his eyes glowing red as she hurriedly flew away despite the fact that Terence could not see her.

With the full power of his ‘B-‘ strength stat, Terence punched right where Kayla was a moment before, using so much force that the shockwaves reaching the ground were enough to create a crater that was a good hundred metres deep.

Immediately after, Terence’s blood-red eyes suddenly turned towards the direction she had flown to, throwing out his fist once more with powerful strength.

[?!]

The young spirit instantly figured something was wrong and flew out of the area, her body turning into a streak of lightning as she blitzed towards Evan with her remaining strength.

‘Block his sight for a bit, and then duck.’

[Master!]

Evan’s words rang out in her head and she nodded, before forcing her body around and activating her skill again.

Instantly, another wall of lighting blocks appeared right in front of Terence, one larger than the previous wall by three times.

Just before it could complete its ‘clapping’ motion, Terence punched it with an aura-coated fist, shattering it into pieces of light instantly.
