Reincarnated Hero System
Chapter 718 Display of Power, and Meetings Under the Radar [Monthly Bonus 1]"…"
A Display of Power.
That was what Evan had just done.
He obliterated one of the Cudjour Mountains with his breath attack, and before closing his mouth, he exhaled a stream of magic power, allowing everyone with sharp senses to know.
That what he had just done, was not his full power.
Evan had been looking for a perfect moment to show the world a glimpse of just how strong he really was; hence why he wanted to fight Rodald.
"Surrender, Rodald Kuhagan."
The boy spoke with an eerily calm voice, his eyes glowing with light as he once again exhaled, releasing the excess magic power which had accumulated in his body due to his dragon heart momentarily going on overdrive.
"Or the next one…would NOT miss."
"…"
A blatant threat.
Rodald understood what Evan meant by this.
Destroying the mountain had given Evan a clear view of Todbury, a state with hundreds of thousands of Wolfen Citizens still living in it.
He was telling the man that if he did not call for a surrender, he would unleash another breath attack which would be aimed at the state.
Rodald was confident he could block the attack, but the issue here was that he did not know how many more times Evan could fire it off.
He did not judge Evan with normal standards, and sensing the boy constantly exhaling magic power with each breath, he could tell that energy was not a problem for Evan.
'If I continued fighting him, and he fired one of those and it hit a city faster than I can block it…!'
Rodald could almost see the scene of carnage that would follow.
'No, there would not be carnage. That's only possible if there's anything left…that attack would pulverize the city…'
He did not know if Evan would really kill tens of thousands without hesitation, but he did not want to test the boy's limits with Wolfen Citizens on the line.
Just when he was internally surpassing his defiance to surrender, Evan uttered a line he could not ignore.
"I am capable of curing Zakaria's corruption."
"?! How do you…?!"
Lightning burst from the man's body in response to his emotions, but he quickly calmed himself when he remembered the situation. Evan applauded his control and fished out something from his inventory—the reason why he was away for the past three days.
"By itself, it's not enough to cure the Corruption caused by a High-Rank Demon's demonic energy, but coupled with the 'Blessing of Light' skill, it'd do the trick."
"…"
Rodald thought about his friend who was suffering even now as he looked at the 'mass of divine power' in Evan's hand before gritting his teeth and speaking.
"…I surrender."
"Tell that to the soldiers on the ground as well."
Evan calmly replied as he retracted his energy and then dismissed his Imperial Scales, whilst maintaining his Draconic Mode and his BoD state.
'I should get to Liz soon…'
His gaze then turned towards the foreign spies in the shadows and he raised a brow at them, as if asking 'What are you still doing there?'.
All of them instantly got the hint and within a minute they all ran away, scampering towards their masters with reports about Evan's power—just like the boy wanted.
'International Influence Plan Phase 1-Complete.'
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt◇ ◇ ◇
Rodald Kuhagan's sudden call for surrender was surprising but not unexpected. He was not the only one who had the concern of Evan launching a breath attack at Todbury.The other Generals were also scared of this so when they heard Evan's words and then Rodald suddenly surrendering, they understood his reasoning.
Logically, they accepted it, but emotionally, they were defiant.
However, when the 'Living Legend' of the Country, Sir Esoti, suddenly sent out a message to all the Generals, they shut out those emotions quickly.
Sometduring the whole aftermath of the battle, Evan, Beluar and Rodald disappeared, leaving nothing but a short message to Amiyah and Lierin.
[Handle things here, reinforcements will be coming soon.]
◇ ◇ ◇
Unknown Location
Capital City Askal
GEE
July 10th
Year 1053
Rodald's whole body screamed at him to run.
At the stime, it also told him to stay still and play dead if possible.
Conflicting intentions.
He could not be blamed as his senses had becconfused due to the mass of power that slammed into him the instant he cout of the teleportation waypoint.
Or rather, the mass of power was always there and he was the one who slammed into it.
'Don't dare show the slightest iota of hostility.'
His survival instincts screamed at him as he slowly raised his gaze from the ground, to meet the figures who were seated in the room Evan had just dragged him to.
The first one who caught his attention was the brown-eyed woman who was looking at him with a confused gaze. She had a very large, pointy hat on her head, a long dark blue coat over a white blouse and a simple blue skirt.
He recognized her.
How could he not? She was one of the Planet's Sovereigns!
'Felyela al'Rear?! Why is she in the GEE?!'
Evan had suddenly cup to him with Beluar and said to follow them, and they went through a series of teleportations before ending up in Askal.
Now, he was suddenly faced with one of the most powerful beings alive and she wasn't the only one there!
Glancing around he saw that there were many other Living Legends present in the room, all seated and waiting patiently.
Even the GEE Emperor, Isaac Wilson himself was present and the man was also waiting patiently.
He saw two people seated on both sides of the Emperor, one he recognized as 'Frost Duke' Kieran.
'In that case, then the other one is the First Star!!'
Rodald could sense the enormous flenergy resting in the body of the Masked Man on the Emperor's side, and he didn't need to be a genius to figure out this was the 'Human Flame' in the flesh.
Spatial power converged at a point and a man appeared. He had grey hair and wore black robes with a symbol of a magic staff inscribed in a pentagram on his back.
"Oh, seems I'm quite late."
'Gavin Josey?! The Former and Current Chief Grand Magi in the splace? What's going on here?!'
Sadly, no one was going to answer his questions as even the boy who made him chere was nowhere to be seen. Evan had stopped at the last Waypoint saying he wanted to get something so only he and Beluar had chere.
Another teleportation happened and this time, it was a very familiar face.
"Sir Esoti?!"
"Hm? Oh…they brought you here as well, huh?"
Esoti remarked as he stepped forward and allowed the remaining figures behind him to cout of the Waypoint.
Rodald's eyes widened in shock as he sensed another mass of flenergy and there was the source was the masked man who entered the room after Esoti.
'Wait…there are two Human Flames?!'
The discovery was one that shocked the Wolfen General, and he felt that the two similarly masked men were laughing at him when he cto this realisation.
Finally, Evan emerged from the Waypoint, earning a lot of surprised glances as no one present was familiar with his Draconic Mode. The power he was exuding also made the Living Legends surprised as they never thought it possible for one to hold such levels of power while being a grandmaster.
'How strong would he be when he actually becomes an Epic?'
Such a thought crossed their minds as they looked at the boy who was surveying the people present with his eyes.
"You're late, kid!"
Bourne shouted out to Evan when the boy entered and shook his head before pointing at a seemingly empty space.
"I'm not…He is."
Right after he spoke, spatial power converged at that empty space and a spatial gate manifested. From within, the figure of a lion beastman with reddish brown hair emerged.
"Con, Evan. It's just a few minutes."
Beast Prince David Thancreed replied as he walked into the room, followed by Sovereign Dandeyr and an entourage of 12 Beastman Living Legends.
"Evannnnnnnn!"
A dark voice suddenly rang out and hearing it, both David and Evan flinched instinctively. The two turned around to meet the figure of Evan's blonde girlfriend glaring at him and David quickly figured Evan had gotten himself into smess again.
Eliza walked up to Evan and grabbed him, before dragging him out of the room. Both of them returned a few minutes later, and Evan was back in his base state, with his horns and wings no longer visible.
While others were confused about what just happened, Felyela and Dandeyr looked at Eliza with impressed gazes as they understood it all.
The girl had easily seen through Evan's Destruction Essence coating, noticing just how much damage he had actually taken from Rodald's earlier attack.
Inferior Stage or not, the man was still an Epic and as he had suspected, Evan had actually taken a lot of damage from his 'Death Storm'.
That was why Eliza was angry, as Evan had gone off somewhere and gotten injured again.
Despite her annoyance, she still healed him up, consuming three charges of her skill to do so. This showed just how much vitality Evan had, and how powerful Rodald's attack was to deplete that enormous vitality by approximately 33%.
Evan had been moving around with 67% HP all this while.
Another Spatial Gate appeared at that moment, and the person who emerged prompted Emperor Isaac to raise his head from the files he had busied himself with.
"Mother."
Hannah Wilson smiled at her son, before glancing around at all the other powerhouses in the room. Behind her, a man with short blonde hair with a face Isaac found all too familiar entered the room.
'No…that's not Rudeus.'
Such a thought crossed the Emperor's mind as he gazed up at the Former Emperor of the GWE, Derrick Hayes.
"Good, the old man's here. All that's left is our dear Princess."
As if on cue, the last spatial gate opened, and a floating orb emerged from within. A surge of magical energy emanated from its core, scanning each individual present before it pivoted and hurtled toward Evan at supersonic speeds.
The boy raised his hands and caught it, before bursting into laughter, much to the surprise of everyone present.
"Evan, if you callup on such short notice next time, I'd sucker punch you in the face."
A voice chimed in, heralding the arrival of its owner.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStepping forth was a teenage girl, her chestnut tresses cascading in a neat ponytail. Her piercing blue eyes bore a Mystic Symbol akin to Evan and David's.
"Nice to see you too, Laurene."
Evan quipped, earning a tongue click from the girl. With a nonchalant wave, Laurene effortlessly reclaimed Venus, guiding it back into her grasp.
From the spatial gate behind her emerged Luke and ten of the GWE's Living Legends, accompanied by a Sovereign who all bowed respectfully upon seeing Derrick.
"Laurene, it's been a while."
Derrick acknowledged the Legends with a nod before walking up to his granddaughter, his arms spread out for a hug. However, to his astonishment, the girl ignored him like he wasn't even there, heading straight for David.
A tense silence fell over the gathering, broken only by Evan's laughter as he caught sight of Derrick's bewildered expression.
He was the only person here who understood why Laurene had causally ignored her grandfather and opted to go to David instead.
"I wonder, which one are you, Dear Princess."
"I could ask you the same."
Laurene and David faced each other in a silent confrontation, radiating an invisible aura that kept others from interfering.
Slooked to Evan, confused as to why the other two Heroes appeared hostile with one another but the boy ignored their gazes.
Laurene and David continued their standoff for another 30 seconds before the girl suddenly smiled and spoke.
"Good, you're the actual one."
"Huh?"
David was caught off guard when she suddenly said this, but it was then he noticed the subtle change of in the symbol in her eyes.
"Stage 3?!"
"Huh? Laurene's on Stage 3?"
Evan teleported behind Laurene and peeked over her shoulders to look at her eyes while she silently flicked his forehead.
"What? Never seen a Stage 3 M̷̰͋ÿ̴̦ș̷̃ẗ̵̟ǐ̶̼c̷͇̃ ̶͚̆E̵̖̊y̷̬͝è̶͕ before?"
"I have. Every morning in the Mirror."
After such a reply to her question, Evan patted her on the head and continued.
"Congratulations on becoming a Grandmaster. Now all that's left is to becan Epic before the Year 1055."
"…"
Everyone who heard Evan's words looked at him like he was skind of madman, Laurene and David included.
He just told her to go from Level 300 to 500 in less than 2 years…it was absurd.
"Not everyone is as ridiculous as you are."
However, Evan only smiled lightly and that smile made Laurene feel chills. Her instincts warned her that Evan was capable of making his words a reality, and the means he was going to employ would not favour her at all!
"Oy! Evan, what are you plan-"
"Anyway! Everyone's here now."
Evan casually interrupted Laurene and teleported to the centre of the room, before setting down a magic projector and powering it on.
Laurene wanted to find out what Evan had in store for her, but the boy had suddenly commenced the meeting, knowing fully well she would not interrupt him.
The magic projector displayed the map of the Alpha continent and all eyes turned towards it, with focus placed on the sports which were marked with red circles.
"This would basically be a repeat of 'Operation Synchro' which was used against Dominik Velak in Cheverton last year.
But this time, there'd be a slight difference."
Evan projected a list of names; the names of the cities, towns, states and countries circled on the map as he spoke.
"This time, we'd be simultaneously hitting Demonic Hand bases, across the entire continent."
"This…is Operation Synchro 2.0."
