Reincarnated Hero System

Not all of the people Evan targeted were captured by the ice, and sof those who were captured were strong enough to break out. One of which, was the A-Rank Mercenary who shattered his section of the icy prison and dashed towards Evan with his flaming sword in hand.

To his surprise, Evan raised his arm and caught his blade with bare hands, before turning it to ice in an instant.

"Wha—?!"

**BAAMM!!!

The A-Rank Mercenary didn't even have the chance to say a full word as Evan threw a full-powered punch with Fracture activated right at his face.

He drew a parabolic arc in the air and almost crashed down on the ice, but Evan used Everlasting chains and lassoed his legs, dragging him back and giving him another punch back into the air.

"I wish Kayla was here, we'd it'd be nice to hit this guy with our combo."

Evan then repeated his previous action and with the third punch, the man was finally knocked out.

Seeing this, the other Mercenaries who were still within the area stared at the boy dumbfoundedly. The light of recognition flashed through their eyes as Evan was someone who was very famous within their business, especially due to Cheverton's incident last year.

He had obviously grown much stronger than then, something they could sense as they felt their hairs stand on end when he glanced at them.

B and C ranks, the lot of them, and after seeing Evan deal with an A-Ranker in just 3 punches, they silently raised their hands in surrender.

No one wanted to take three fistfuls of lightning to the face!

Evan then glanced at the river area and saw that despite holding the mid-rank spirit he sensed in the Wolfen Army at Sword Point, Milena had subdued all the soldiers around her, including the spirit's husband.

As for the Lieutenant General, a quick glance at the sky showed the man fighting Beluar, but Evan didn't pay this battle too much mind as he already knew the outcome.

'Beluar's gonna kick his ass.'

His thoughts becreality in the next movement as the Lieutenant General's body was hurled to the ground with overwhelming force, crashing down on the frozen river and shattering Evan's ice which was strong enough to tank dozens of large yield bombs.

"That has gotta hurt…"

Evan spoke as he teleported to where the man was, looked around at the frozen soldiers who had now been crushed and shook his head before chaining the man with Everlasting Chains.

"It would be in your best interest to stay put."

He then jumped into the air, dragging the chained man along with him and shouted out.

"Subdue them all!! The Enemy is confused and their General has been defeated!!"

Seeing the Lieutenant General's half-conscious body dangling from the chain Evan was holding, Wolfen's morale took a nosedive towards Zero.

Magic and spells flew around as the Imperial forces pressed their advantage, pressuring the Wolfen soldiers who were now like headless chickens.

Colonels and Captains tried to get things under control, but it was hard to do so after the soldiers had been treated to the sight of their defeated General.

Evan moved to where Milena was, glancing at the defeated soldiers before dropping the chained Lieutenant General on the floor.

"Good work, Milena."

[Thank you.]

The young woman spoke with a smile, before lowering the sword of crimson gold ice he had given her earlier.

[Master, when does this thing melt?]

"After a few days, why do you ask? You like it?"

[Mhmm.]

She nodded lightly as she drew her hand across the blade and infused her magic into it, watching the energy flow in seamlessly like it was an extension of her arm.

As much as she liked it, the sword was only a projection created with Evan's Elemental Weapon Projection and empowered by Harbinger of Ice.

Besides, Milena did not fight with swords so she wouldn't be able to utilize its full potential even if she had it.

'A pity.'

She stabbed it into the ground and glanced at Heina who rushed to the half-conscious Gibun first after being released, remembering the Wolf Darkness spirit who had asked her out in Duscon right after the battle with Craitid and the Fake Hero #12.

'Why am I remembering this now?'

Milena shook her head to clear her thoughts before watching as Evan questioned the Lieutenant General.

"I'm going to give you the exact sterms that I gave the Brigadier General in Tomond's Firecrest Camp.

Would you call for surrender and end this now, or choose to let your men fight on and die here this instant?

Make your decision quickly."

"SURRENDER!"

Heina cried out the moment Evan spoke, her loud voice leaving nearby soldiers momentarily confused.

"You should heed her advice, you know? She isn't saying it for no reason."

Indeed, Heina told the man to surrender because she could see the hundreds of low-ranked spirits and dozens of mid-ranked spirits that suddenly filled the area when Evan came.

Individually, they were all much weaker than her but she knew how nasty spirits could be when many of them with the selemental alignment teamed up.

If Evan offered them something in return for their assistance, they could wreak havoc on the remaining men and from the words she was hearing the low-ranked spirits say, she knew that he had something they all wanted.

As for the Lieutenant General, the man considered his options and saw that he actually didn't have any besides Surrender or total Annihilation.

His choice, for the sake of his soldier's families who were waiting for them to return, was Surrender.

With their Commanding officer raising the white flag, the Zhupus army soldiers lowered their weapons while Beluar commanded the Imperials to cease their attack and fall into formation.

Just as Evan jumped up a void step staircase he created and reached Beluar's position in the air, he caught sight of a Wolfen Soldier about to swing his sword to kill a fallen imperial soldier.

Immediately, his hand moved and he launched a burst cannon, knocking the sword out of the Wolfen soldier's hands, before blasting a hole right through the man's shoulder.

He screamed in pain as his arm dropped to the floor and he bled out, while Evan coldly gazed at him.

"Fool, your commander has already called for surrender and yet you still attacked."

The boy shook his head in disappointment before turning to Beluar and speaking.

"I'd be returning to the capital this night; I have things that I need to finalize with sof the Newspaper agencies and I need to arrange for a few interviews.

A lot of people are going to be questioning my right and justification for siding with you guys when the headlines cout tomorrow so I need to make ample preparations."

"You seem to have things under control, but I'd still ask. Do you need any help?"

"Not yet. If I need help, I'd ask Bourne or Sir Kieran.

If they aren't enough then I'd just contact David. Even all the way in the Beast Kingdom, he can still help out."

Beluar's expression darkened as he questioned how bad a problem that Kieran and Bourne could not solve would be while Evan just chuckled.

"I guess I'm leaving you to handle the aftermath this tas well."

"I'm sure you'd still leaveto do it even if you weren't busy. Just go already."

"Hahaha! Maybe I'd give you snew spatial spells as repayment!"

Evan spoke as he jumped back down to the ground and then called upon Kuro who jumped out of his shadow and then used Shadow Movement to teleport Evan and Milena out of the area.

◇ ◇ ◇

Evan's journey to Askal was one that took four hours using a combination of Kuro's teleportations and the Beast King's train. When the boy reached the GEE Capital, he headed straight for the Palace.

During his trip, he had an idea that he wanted to run by the GEE Emperor, but when he reached the Imperial Palace and was led to the Emperor's location, he was met with a…very weird sight.

It was late night, yet in a Gazebo in the middle of one of the palace courtyards, Emperor Isaac and his girlfriend, Eliza, sat opposite each other and were engaged in a heated gof chess.

"Welcback, Evan."

The girl greeted him without taking her eyes off the board, moving her hands to take out one of the Emperor's puns with her bishop, but unfortunately, this put the bishop in the direct line of sight of his queen.

"So, we've captured Liegan and we'd also fended off an attack from Zhupus. It seems Wolfen has more men on standby than your previous estimations."

Evan gave the Emperor a rundown of the attack from the Zhupus soldiers and the man listened to it while he played his chess gwith Eliza.

When he was done, the boy voiced his desire to have a meeting with the Emperor, Kieran and Bourne.

"Whatever it is you have to say, it can wait. Letfinish this gfirst."

Such was Isaac's response as he returned his full focus to his chess gwith Eliza, which he eventually won 10 minutes later.
