Reincarnated Hero System

When Evan met Griselda earlier in the year, it was revealed that the teenage Elder Breed Vampire had been intending to go somewhere completely different but ended up in Duscon due to a spatial accident.

The cause, though she did not know, was the Wielder of the ‘Child of Space’ skill, who was conducting an experiment that interfered with all teleportation on the entire Dark Continent at that moment.

Their actions had displaced Griselda halfway across the Alpha continent; this was just an experiment.

An experiment they were still busy with when Thagol’s message came and the reason Vaeri came instead.

Evan was honestly grateful this was the case as if it was the Second Finger they had to deal with, then only a member of ‘The Five’ could save them.

But still, Vaeri’s presence had brought a question to the minds of everyone present who knew about the demons.

The Dimensional Rift on the Dark Continent, had not opened large enough for even Mid Rank demons to slip through.

Yet, there was already a Peak Rank Demon on Aidos, one whose existence was unknown until now.

But was she the only one?

That was the question that bugged the minds of David and Dandeyr.

Evan, had the answer to that question, and it wasn’t the kind they wanted to hear.

Notwithstanding the now defunct ‘Demon Lord’ rank, Peak Ranks were the next highest demons after the Demon King.

Knowing that there were Demons on this level on Aidos was quite a shock.

|¬This is quite bad. With this incident, that person’s attention would be on the Alpha Continent for a while.

I have to hold back on my plans for Tarse until they lose interest, otherwise, I might make them come over in person. That’s equivalent to a death sentence. ¬|

Evan muttered to himself in a low voice as he walked up to his sword and picked it up.

¬|Hopefully the Master of Dragondune remains wherever they are as well. ¬|

◇ ◇ ◇

The storm that was Vaeri had passed, and now it was time to deal with the aftermath.

The S-ranked and above combatants who had been locked out were now finally able to re-enter the city, and they quickly moved and helped to capture all the Demonic Hand Senior Members that Dandeyr had subdued with his Gravity Law energy earlier.

Healers came in to help the wounded, while the city lords and other higher-ups moved to check on the civilians and confirm the number of casualties.

The Adventurer’s Guild Master and the many Vice GMs were also at work as well.

There were so many things to do; recovering monster corpses, adventurer and soldier corpses, finding out the exact number of combatants that had perished, analysing the damage to the city’s infrastructure and so on.

All these were handled by the appropriate personnel involved, and they made sure that not even a single person who participated in the battle to the last moment did even the smallest amount of work.

Their names were all documented, as each one of them who had fought to defend Lacertilia and its citizens, was well deserving of an award.

David and Malaya, members of the Royal Family, assured them of this.

Speaking of David, the shock that came from his reveal as a Hero was still fresh in the minds of all those present, and at every given time, he felt numerous gazes on him.

The Anomalies were also the target of attention, as it had gotten out that they were the ones who ended the dungeon break.

The fight against Faldo was also seen by everyone, both those inside and outside the barrier.

By the time the news of what happened today spread abroad, their names would once more become the hot topic of conversation everywhere on the continent.

The news was even bound to reach other continents as well, especially due to the fact that ‘two of Aidos’ Sovereigns’ made appearances.

Well, the second one was an Invader but the public didn’t need to know that.

Malaya was in charge of information control, and the woman knew exactly what to let get out there, and what to conceal.

It was going to be a difficult task, but she was sure she could at least succeed in stopping a good percentage of the ‘Unnecessary’ information from getting out.

While all of this was going on, Evan was busy harvesting a certain item from Faldo’s corpse. He had some SS rankers help him out since his body was so exhausted that even standing was a problem.

Eliza had layered Breaths of Life on him, but it didn’t change the fact that his body was still strained greatly.

And he hadn’t even deactivated BoD yet!

Right now, Evan was genuinely worried about what’d happen if he deactivated the skill right now.

‘That’s why I want to handle this first.’

He thought to himself as he pulled out the massive blood-pumping organ from Faldo’s chest, one that was as large as his entire torso.

|Detected Evolutionary Catalyst in close proximity. |

|Condensing Evolutionary Catalyst to a form suitable for Host’s consumption. |

A strange form of energy escaped from Evan’s body and wrapped around the Dragon’s Heart.

Suddenly, the Dragon’s Heart glowed with light and slowly began shrinking, until it was now a size that was a few centimetres bigger than Evan’s clenched fist.

“…what World Law is that?”

Dandeyr and the Living Legends present were surprised, as they could tell it was the power of a World Law, but not one they recognized.

It was the power of the World Law of Evolution.

‘No wonder Hydran acted strangely that day.

From the very beginning, you had already stuffed the energy of a World Law inside me and called it a ‘Unique Skill’.

No…this isn’t just the energy…it’s like Kayla’s…but stronger.’

[The ‘goddess Artemisia’ reserves her right to remain silent.]

Evan was seated on Faldo’s fallen corpse when this happened, and the sheer amount of magic power that escaped the Dragon’s Heart, in tandem with the Law Energy situation, attracted the attention of everyone nearby towards him

When Eliza turned towards him, her gaze was initially a questioning one, but when she saw the heart in his hands, it changed to that of realization.

“Evan!”

|¬huh? ¬|

“Put. It. Down.”

The girl had been with Evan long enough to be able to predict his thoughts when he took certain actions, and seeing him holding the dragon’s energy core; its Heart, she quickly figured out what he was about to do.

Evan, however, only smiled before turning to David and saying.

|¬Hey, dude.

You mind doing me a favour? ¬|

“Hmm? What is it? And shouldn’t you put that down and wash your hands, the blood’s getting all over your clothes.”

|¬Oh, right. ¬|

The boy deactivated his mystic eyes, revealing his clear grey-coloured pupils as he used water magic to wash both his hands, and the heart in front of him.

Eliza wanted to move towards him, but her shadow seemed to come alive and hold her in place, while Evan then continued his words to David. 

|¬About that favour. Can I leave myself, as well as my party members in your care? Basically, put us under your protection for a while.

Leader’s Orders. ¬|

“?!”

David’s eyes widened when he heard Evan’s last two words. His Hero title seemed to come alive within him and exert some kind of binding force on his body.

“You…!”

He knew what Evan had just done. It was something he hadn’t used since he came to Aidos, but it had always been there.

It was also the reason why he wasn’t worried about Laurene betraying him when he fed her information about the future.

lightsΝοvel His Privilege as the ‘Leader of the Seven Heroes’.

Before David’s brain could even finish formulating what he wanted to say to the boy, Evan abruptly tossed the Dragon’s Heart into his mouth.

“…what?”

He could only react in such a dumbfounded manner, as not even Dandeyr had expected Evan to devour the energy core of another existence just like that.

It was absurd.

Immediately he did, the energy of the law of evolution burst out from Evan’s body and pushed back everyone within a 50-metre radius, Dandeyr included.

A series of notifications then began appearing in the boy’s field of view.

|Adaptive Evolution has detected Class 2 High-Rank Evolutionary Catalyst: White High Dragon’s Heart. |

|Minimum Requirement for Optimal Evolutionarily path is Class 3. |

|Conditions Met. |

|WARNING! Host’s Vessel is currently in Critical Condition. Repairs Required Immediately. |

|Unlocking Experience Storage. |

|Releasing Energy Isolated for Evolutionary Process. |

|Required Energy-Possessed Energy Ratio= 1.5:2.5|

|All Requirements Fulfilled|

|Due to current circumstances, Evolutionary Process would commence Immediately. |

|Good Night, Host. |

With those last three words, Evan’s vision blacked out.
