Reincarnated Hero System

The both of them shouted in sync, then glared at each other before snorting and turning away. Suppressing the rude thoughts that came to his mind, the uniformed asked Bourne.

“By the way, where the hell were you this time, Bourne?”

“Oh, I went over to the Great Western Empire an-“

“”What the actual fuck?!””

This time, the uniformed man couldn’t help but retort in sync with the man dressed in all black. He pressed his fingers to his temple as he spoke.

“Bourne, you’re a duke of-“

“Marquis.”

“Yes, you’re officially a ‘Marquis’ of the great Eastern Empire.

Even though we are at peace with them, if you enter their country without alerting them first it could cause a lot of problems later on, you know?”

“Well, its fine if they never find out. No one noticed me, except for that runaway kid.”

“Huh? A kid noticed you?”

Bourne nodded in affirmation as he sat back down on the couch, ignoring the shocked looks on the other two men’s faces.

“Wait a moment? By runaway kid, you don’t mean Duke Eris’ son, do you?”

“That’s exactly who I’m talking about.”

Bourne opened the drawer of the small table beside the couch and pulled out a sketchbook. He rummaged through it a bit and found a suitable pen, before closing it and flipping the switch atop the table.

The curtains opened and the light of the afternoon sun illuminated the room, allowing him to clearly see his sketchbook.

He began drawing as he narrated his meeting with Evan to the two men, causing their jaws to drop.

“He knows about the Wolfen plan?! How?!

Not even all our country’s nobles are aware of this!!!”

“I have no idea how he found out, he also seems to know something about the reason why we want to conquer Wolfen.”

“HOW?!”

The military uniformed man slammed his fist on the table in the middle of the room as he screamed out in question.

Their plan to attack and conquer Wolfen was something that only Ten people in the entire Great Eastern Empire were aware of.

It hadn’t even been a month since they had begun planning, but somehow a duke’s son from another empire knew of it.

His enraged reaction was only natural.

Bourne, however, was calm as he continued making a sketch, trying to remember exactly how what he was sketching looked.

“The kid needs to be brought into custody. We have to find out how he knows of our plans!”

“No need.”

In response to the military uniformed man’s words, Bourne responded as he dropped his pen and showed the two men the sketchbook.

On it, was something that the two men recognized.

“This…! It’s the same as the stone slate ‘Rathal’ took from the advance team!”

“Exactly. And guess where I saw it?”

“Out with it already!”

The man in black screamed at Bourne, causing the brown eyed man’s eyebrow to twitch but he held in his annoyance and replied.

“This symbol, crest or whatever it is, was inscribed in the eyes of Evan Del Eris.”

The reply Bourne gave them was so out of their expectations that they couldn’t even form the words to say, only staring at him slack jawed.

“What I think is, Evan Del Eris is related to whatever this symbol means, and he wants us to look further into it.

The kid also seems to know more about it than we do, but he can’t say for some reason.”

Hearing that Evan knew more of the crest that Bourne sketched than they did caused the uniformed man to frown.

He was confident that the Great Eastern Empire’s research into those symbols was unmatched, however, Bourne just informed him that it wasn’t the case.

And he was right.

The crest that Bourne sketched, was something any of the ‘Seven Heroes’ would recognize, it was the crest of the ‘Second’ of the ‘Seven Heroes’, the ‘Hero of Mimicry’.

Bourne just sketched exactly what he saw in Evan’s eyes earlier that day.

Without waiting for the two men to collect their thoughts, Bourne repeated Evan’s exact words.

“-Can you look into it? You can tell the others too.

Even the ice dude you don’t get along with. It’s important you do so, for my sake, yours and the rest of Aidos.-“

“Huh? What does that mean?”

In return to the man in black’s question, Bourne replied.

“Those were the kid’s exact words. Strange, don’t you think?

Only the Ten of us know I don’t get along with Kieran, so how did a kid we’ve never met come to find out?

Secondly, he said that looking into it would be for the sake of ‘Aidos’, that’s the whole world. Sound familiar?”

Upon hearing Bourne’s questions, the two men couldn’t help but realise how strange the situation was. It seemed like Evan knew a lot about them, up on to their personal relations, yet they knew nothing about him.

“The second part of his statement! Those were the exact words that ‘He’ said to the advance team!”

It was not known to many, but about in the year 1048, a team of researchers led by one of the Seven Star Generals, infiltrated the Wolfen, a country sharing borders with the Great Eastern Empire.

The team’s aim was a ruin located in the central region of the country. They discovered that this ruin was some sort of ancient base of operations used by an unknown group of beings.

From the area they presumed to be the control centre of the base, they recovered a stone slate that had seven symbols on it.

These seven symbols were also seen in multiple areas around the ruin and they believed it belonged to the unknown group of people who used the ruin as a base.

However, when they were leaving, they were attacked and the Seven Star General that led the team was defeated thoroughly by the assailant.

The one that attacked them was someone that even all the Seven Star Generals combined would not be able to beat.

One of the ‘Five’, the strongest beings in all of Aidos.

‘Strongest Human’ Rathal!

As if the fact that one of the ‘Five’ moved personally was not shocking enough, it was revealed that ‘Rathal’ was after the same stone slate that was recovered from the ruin.

When he took it from the team, he spoke these words.

-“Investigate this ruin more thoroughly, there’s something you missed. For our sakes, and for the rest of Aidos.”-

He disappeared after this and no word on the location of ‘Rathal’ had been heard since then.

This was the reason that the Empire was moving to conquer Wolfen, as their attempts at asking for official permission had failed.

“Either the boy is somehow connected to the ‘Strongest Human’ Rathal, something I highly doubt, or he’s connected to the group of people who used that base in the ancient times.

Oh well, it doesn’t matter. We’d find out when he gets here, after all.”

“Just what kind of kid did you meet over there?”

Bourne just chuckled in response to the man in black, Kieran’s question as he walked out of the room, leaving the two behind.

If one could appraise the back of the man walking out of the room, what they would see would shock them out of their minds.

Unique Skills- Child of Fire. |

He was the ‘First Star’ of the ‘Seven Star Generals’ of the Alpha continent’s Great Eastern Empire, a hidden duke and Official Marquis of the empire.

His ‘Child of Fire’ skill had earned him the moniker of Human Flame, with his Gravity Manipulation also being a skill feared by many on the battlefield.

In the game, he was also one of the NPC’s that possessed a ‘Child Series Skill’. They were known as the ‘Children of the Elements’ by the player base of Aidos Online.

He also possessed the rare Limit Break skill, one that multiplied the stats of the user by three for as long as they had energy within their bodies.

Although it came with the drawback of weakening the user greatly after they deactivated it, it didn’t change the fact that it was a fearsome skill.

After all, the power someone on his level would gain if he used the skill would be comparable to the great spirits of legend, if not higher.

Besides, there was a way to circumvent that weakness, and Evan knew this method. This was why the second reason Evan had made Bourne look into his eyes.

To make him meet the conditions to mimic the skill.

The man obviously noticed Evan doing something but he let it be because he sensed no hostility.

More importantly, he was confident enough to crush Evan instantly if he tried anything funny.
