Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 430 - Its Been A Long Time



Chapter 430 - It\'s Been A Long Time

"Who cares about who I am? Why ask me that question when we\'re already in this situation? Tell me, oh hero why are you here? Are you here to ask questions or are you here to do something?" Ren tried provoking Kim Chul since if they had a conversation he might decide not to attack.

\'Usually, this type of summoned heroes quickly adapt to the world, since they think this world is some sort of game. Still, once they figure out what\'s what, they do get significantly boring and their morals do change. Knowing a bit about how the Holy Kingdom, no the Temple of the Goddess of Light deals with things, they most probably told this guy some ridiculous lie to get him to do whatever they want. Oh, foolish, idiotic heroes, you guys are so much more powerful than the others but you\'re just their pawns.\'

Ren decided to give a helping hand to this pitiful hero, but that would be after he had his fun and fought the hero. On the other hand, when Kim Chul heard what Ren said, he didn\'t know what to say. It was obvious that something he wasn\'t informed about was happening, but the person who has the answers doesn\'t seem like he wants to talk to him.

"I just want to know your side of the story." When the knights heard what Kim Chul said they looked a bit worried. They knew a little about this summoned human hero. He was a powerful being that was stronger than even Sword Saints and was near the level of the divine tier swordsmen. Yet he knew nothing about the way the Holy Kingdom treats the demi-humans. Those things were hidden from him, and as he was focused on killing monsters and the like, he wasn\'t able to see what was in front of him.

If Ren told Kim Chul now what was happening, Kim Chul might actually change sides. Still, if they interrupted their conversation he would grow even more suspicious. The knights simply waited anxiously for Ren to answer.

"I don\'t care if you listen to my side of the story or not? What would happen if I tell you or not, you\'re the only one who benefits if I tell you anything."

"If you tell me, and if what you guys are doing isn\'t wrong and there\'s some sort of misunderstanding then we could talk it out. We don\'t need to fight."

"Heh, if what we\'re doing isn\'t wrong? Pray tell, who the f*ck decides what is right and what is wrong? Is it you, is it those knights, is it those priests that don\'t listen to anyone but themselves, or is it that Goddess of yours that stands high above looking down on us like ants? The only one who decides what\'s right and what\'s wrong is ourselves." As Ren said those words he was leaking some bloodlust.

When Kim Chul felt Ren\'s bloodlust it was like a wave of neverending murderous rage. This was the first time Kim Chul felt such an intense feeling. It was already clear from the start that the guy in front of him was dangerous, but now he knew that he was even more dangerous than he assumed.

"Enough words, if you want me to talk to you properly, then you need to speak my language. The only language I truly understand is battle, if you win I\'ll tell you whatever you want."

"And if you win?"

"Then you don\'t get any answers."

"Is that all you want?"

"There\'s nothing you can give me, that I would want?"

"Are you not going to ask for you and your people to be able to leave safely?"

"Huh, why would I ask for that? If we wanted to leave we could do so without your permission." When the knights heard what Ren said they got angry. Still, knowing that they were already having difficulty just dealing with one of them, they couldn\'t really deny what Ren said, which just made it even more irritating for them.

"Then why don\'t you just leave?"

"Can\'t you see my friend over there is still doing something? This is getting boring, enough talk, if you\'re not coming then I will." Ren could no longer wait for Kim Chul to start, so he took out his weapon from his shadow. The weapon Ren pulled out of his shadow was Snertal the Dragon Sword.

When Kim Chul saw Ren\'s weapon and looked at his own, he felt that he had already lost. Kim Chul\'s equipment was basically light armor with five short swords on his waist. His equipment was made from rare ores, and it even had a mixture of the bones of monsters like the King Drake. At first, Kim Chul thought that he was already wearing end game level gear, especially after seeing the equipment the Sword Saints wore.

Yet now that he was looking at Ren\'s weapon he felt cheated. That sword Ren was holding felt like some kind of mythical weapon, even the aura it produced felt like a limited-time event item. As Kim Chul was still in a state of stunned silence, Ren lifted Snertal and pointed it at Kim Chul.

"So will you be starting, or will I need to start this performance myself?" Kim Chul sighed before drawing two of his swords. There was no choice now, he needed to fight.

"I Kim Chul challenge you to a duel, do you accept?" Kim Chul activated one of his strongest skills, [Duel].

Duel: Will be activated once a duel between two people has been verbally accepted. Once in effect, the two combatants will be unaffected by an outside force. While in Duel mode, the Blade Dancer\'s abilities will cool down 50% faster. All stats except luck will increase by 1.5x. Skill Duration is until the victor is decided. Skill Cooldown: one week.

"Now we\'re talking! I Ren accept this duel."

The moment Ren accepted Kim Chul\'s duel a sudden change happened. Kim Chul\'s presence felt different it was as if he was suddenly bursting with power. In fact, the feeling surprised Valdel and Lara as the increase in Kim Chul\'s power made them feel threatened. On the other hand, Ren got even more excited, as the smile on his face grew even more vicious.

"You just activated a skill didn\'t you?" Kim Chul had no reason to lie to Ren since it was obvious he already knew so he responded by nodding his head.

"As I expected, but of course, you should have more skills that can increase your strength. Fine, I will wait until you\'re ready. I want to fight you in your strongest form. Don\'t worry I won\'t attack while you strengthen yourself."

Hearing what Ren said made Kim Chul feel a bit lost. Even this much of a power-up doesn\'t seem to faze Ren, not only that he was even telling him that he should power-up some more.

\'I guess I\'m nothing in the eyes of this guy. Well, that\'s to be expected with a hidden boss-like character with stats that are just filled with question marks. Fine since he\'s allowing me to, I\'m going all out in buffing myself.\'

"I Kim Chul [Declare] here and now that I will attain victory!"

After using all of his trump cards and buffs, Kim Chul\'s status increased by an incredible amount. His current status was rather monstrous.

Once Kim Chul was done buffing himself up, he started emitting an incredible pressure. This time Valdel and Lara knew for sure that they wouldn\'t be able to beat Kim Chul in his current state even if they gang-up on him. The Knights were also getting excited as they felt the overwhelming power Kim Chul was emitting. On the other hand, Ren was feeling extremely elated as well.

"It has been such a long, long time since I felt like this! Come, hero! Come show me everything you have to offer! Grant me a battle worth remembering!"
