Reincarnated Hero System

"Psych."

"!!"

"Son of a-!"

The Assassin couldn't finish his curse as Evan suddenly disappeared from his field of vision. It took him half a second to compute that the boy didn't really 'disappear' but just moved at a speed fast enough that he could not catch it even with his Superior Grandmaster vision.

"Nox Explosion!"

He activated a skill and released an omnidirectional attack of darkness magic, an attempt to protect himself just in case Evan attacked him.

This proved futile, however, as Evan blitzed through the explosion unscathed and seized the Assassin in a chokehold faster than he could react.

"Nox Magic, huh? I like it.

I want it.

Thanks for it."

|Nox Magic Acquired|

|Rare Skills require one skill slot. |

|Five Skill slots remaining. |

Evan shamelessly took the skill before turning the man's body and using him as a human shield to block the barrage of green light arrows Kailu sent flying in his direction.

"You're not dead? Let me help you then. Nox Explosion."

With that casual remark, Evan activated his newly acquired skill and used it on its original owner.

**BOOOMM!!!

The explosion engulfed them both, the Assassin's body absorbing the brunt of the blast while Evan emerged unscathed.

"Eight..."

Evan muttered this under his breath, seemingly oblivious to Darfin and Sana who had closed the distance with their blades filled to the brim with power.

They unleashed powerful strikes, aiming for Evan's neck but the boy silently held up his hand and made the pages of the Akashic Page flap underneath his palm.

"Nuclear Magic."

The familiar five-ringed golden magic circle manifested and immediately, the two Epics cancelled their attacks and backed away. However, Evan grinned and cancelled the spell once more, making their faces contort in anger.

"You damned!!"

Evan flapped his wings and took to the skies, manoeuvring to dodge Kailu's arrows as he flew straight towards the elf who noticed his intentions and made attempts to increase the distance.

Darfin was hot on his tail and Evan sent Hydras at the man to slow him down before sending out Everlasting Chains to ensnare Kailu.

The elf, however, proved too dextrous as he avoided all of the chains with paper-thin margins, forcing Evan to give up on that endeavour for now.

He turned around and drew the Unforged, engaging Darfin in close combat while he summoned his Frostborne Colossus to keep Sana at bay.

Danger sense blared an alarm and Evan unleashed the most powerful shockwave he could, knocking Darfin towards the ground and blowing away all Kailu's arrows.

He then nosedived to the ground, charging right at the last grandmaster who was casting water magic.

Mesarthim's prismatic flames surged and destroyed his spell circles, allowing Evan to grab the man in the short moment he was immobilized due to the backlash.

He let go of the Unforged and activated Fracture, taking a hefty swing at the man with a right straight punch, leading into a left hook, then a right uppercut and a left straight—a complete six-hit combo.

Every time his fist struck the man, it let off a tremendous sound and sent lightning tendrils scattering everywhere as it shaved away at the man's life.

Upon sensing Sana and Darfin closing in behind him, Evan grabbed the man's neck and pivoted, flinging his body towards the two before summoning the Akashic Page once more.

"Nuclear Magic."

"We would not fall for the same trick thrice!"

Darfin shouted out as he knocked the assassin's body to the side and charged his blade with aura, while Sana activated her unique skill in preparation to strike.

Hearing his words, Evan smiled before speaking.

"Haven't you heard? Third time's usually the charm."

It was then that Darfin and Sana noticed, that the Five Ringed Spell circle behind Evan, did not dissipate into fragments of light like the previous two times.

"Nuclear Magic: Atomic Annihilation."

A blinding light enveloped the area as the beam of nuclear energy streaked towards Darfin and Sana with unstoppable momentum, leaving a trail of destruction in its wake.

Darfin, quick to react, seized the nearby assassin and hurled him in front as a makeshift shield. The unfortunate man barely had time to register his fate before the beam struck, triggering a cataclysmic explosion of unimaginable power.

The force of the blast was staggering, sending shockwaves rippling through the air and engulfing everything in its path in a blinding inferno. The ground trembled beneath their feet as the explosion expanded outward, leaving devastation in its wake.

The explosion was so intense that it could be seen for kilometres around.

As the dust settled and the smoke cleared, the aftermath of the explosion revealed a scene of utter destruction, with nothing left standing in its wake.

Nothing except Evan who unleashed the spell, and Darfin and Sana who were somehow unscathed by it.

"What?"

Evan frowned as he had expected to take at least one of the two out, and yet both of them were still perfectly fine.

However, the dark expression on their faces showed that they had not come out unscathed for free.

They had used the defensive Artifacts which they had prepared to use to block Evan's 'Dragon Breath' to block the Nuclear Magic spell.

The three of them had one artifact each, and now Darfin and Sana simultaneously used theirs in response to Atomic Annihilation, leaving only Kailu's left.

"…"

All four of them remained silent, both sides watching each other warily. For a split second, Darfin and Sana exchanged a knowing glance, and upon noticing this subtle action, Kailu unleashed a volley of arrows at Evan.

"Star Storm!"

"Hymn of Protection!"

Evan blocked the volley with a shield, but through the transparent shield, he saw Darfin and Sana both pull out a small bottle and consume its contents.

Immediately, their energy surged uncontrollably, releasing shockwaves that shattered Evan's protection spell and pushed the boy back a few dozen metres.

Just as Evan looked up, a familiar series of notifications appeared in his field of view.

|Threat of Imminent Death to Host Detected ⚠|

|Activating 'Sur—

"Limit Break."

"Prismatic Destruction Vortex."

"?!"

Kailu didn't even realise when Evan appeared beside him and before he could even utter a word, a whirling mass of spiralling energy had already collided with his body, yeeting him into the air with unbridled force.

Darfin and Sana were barely able to see the streak of crimson-

gold light that crossed through the sky, kicking off the ground to follow it as fast as they could.

By the time they got to it (3 seconds later), the sight they were met with was that of Evan standing atop the fallen Kailu's body with his mouth wide open.

White wings with opalescent scales stretched from his back and two horns sat on his head. His body was covered in translucent white-gold scales, matching the reports they had received about his Dragon powers.

Nevertheless, even in their newly empowered state, they were not fast enough to stop Evan from unleashing his breath attack right on Kailu's body.

**BOOOMMMMM!!!!

The explosion of power that occurred when Evan's breath hit Kailu was enough to crumble the already half-destroyed mountain where he had been bashed through earlier.

Immediately he did this, Evan instantly bent his body backwards and dodged Darfin's sword slash, stretching his hand out to grab his blade and fling the man over his shoulder.

The force with which Darfin slammed onto the ground was great enough that his body bounced back up and Evan wrapped Everlasting Chains around him, before spinning around and slamming his body into Sana's.

'Elemental Shield.'

The skill's activation came half a second before it was pelted with an array of green arrows, powerful enough to make it crack and shatter in an instant.

Evan recreated another shield but a dozen arrows were launched at it right after, all targeting the same spot and shattering the shield.

Danger sense blared and alarm and Evan's attention was turned towards his other side, and in that short moment, another dozen arrows which were faster than the first two volleys, hurtled towards him.

All twelve arrows pierced the midpoint between Evan's left shoulder and elbow.

"Gak!"

Imperial scales shattered and his flesh was rent. The arrows tore through his muscles and even reached his bones.

"Stout Guardian!"

Evan reactivated Imperial Scales and summoned the giant armoured shield knight who raised its shield just in time to block Kailu's Sacred Star Arrow.

The boy then used his ice to freeze the wound, before flapping his wings and flying through the Stout Guardian, through the cloud of dust and smoke to reach Kailu's position in an instant.

The elf activated a shield but Evan summoned the Unforged and used Pierce Guard, tearing through the shield like paper and stabbing it into his shoulder.

As soon as Evan stabbed into his shoulder, Kailu erupted with newfound strength, grabbing Evan's hand in an attempt to hold him in place.

In that instant, Darfin and Sana burst in through the smoke with their weapons primed to attack, but Evan had long since sensed them and was prepared.
