《A king's reincarnation》Chapter 29: The new place that I want to protect

Advertisement

"Are you feeling uncomfortable at my back?" I asked the child at my back.

"No, it feels good right here." replied Nathia.

"Then hold on tight, we'll go faster."

Right now, I'm carrying Nathia at my back and we're traveling at high speeds. Because nathia can't keep up with, I had to carry her in order to get to the location quickly.

"Remember, once I storm the front of the castle, I will engage a fight with the demon lord and his subordinates, at that moment, you will immediately head to the room where the king is located, capture him and bring him to me."

"Yes!"

After running for an hour without rest, we've finally arrived at the Capital of Jahal. Both of us looked for a good hiding spot in order to prepare. I took out the sniper from my subspace.

"Lucas-sama, what is that?"

"It's a magic wand called 'sniper'."

"Wands have names!?"

"Eh... no? I just gave it a name myself."

"I see.."

"Anyways, wait for me here, I'll climb that clock tower in order to eliminate a person named Tarass."

"understood!"

I ran up the wall of the clock tower quickly and positioned myself in a spot where I can see 78% of the castle's front.

In order to look for Tarass, I used my inner force and expanded it so that it covers every nook and cranny of the entire kingdom to make it function like a bat's ultrasonic waves, giving me an accurate layout of the castle and towns. In this world, if there is one thing that I am wary of, it is magic. I have limited knowledge about the power called magic and spells it invokes, that's why I have to eliminate the existence who poses the most threat to me, which is Tarass.

I quickly memorized the entire layout of the kingdom so that it can allow us to make a smooth escape after we achieved our goal.

I aimed the sniper at the castle and placed my right eye on the scope.

"𝘕𝘰𝘸 𝘭𝘦𝘵'𝘴 𝘭𝘰𝘰𝘬 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘢 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘴𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘢 𝘩𝘶𝘨𝘦 𝘢𝘮𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘶𝘯𝘧𝘢𝘮𝘪𝘭𝘪𝘢𝘳 𝘦𝘯𝘦𝘳𝘨𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘦𝘥 𝘮𝘢𝘯𝘢 𝘸𝘪𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯 𝘩𝘪𝘮...𝘧𝘰𝘶𝘯𝘥 𝘺𝘢"

I found a person, pacing back and forth in a hallway who has a huge amount of mana.

"According to the records, Tarass has two black horns protruding at his head, he fits the description."

I raised two of my fingers in order to feel the wind.

"Wind, 14mph to the east"

I took out a coin from my pocket and threw it up the air, I observed its fall using my left eye.

"Gravity, 9.3m/s²"

"Distance, 9287 yards."

"Target movement speed, 7 miles per hour."

"Advanced aiming... Fire."

BANG*

Tarass, who is pacing back and forth at the hallway felt a projectile coming for him so he tried to conjure a barrier. But since he underestimated the speed of a sniper bullet, before he was able to open his mouth to chant, the bullet already lodged itself right at his forehead, killing him instantly. This is the one thing, that he never foresaw.

"Target Eliminated"

I jumped down the tower in order to start the storming. I gestured nathia to start the abduction.

After she disappeared into the shadows, I also made my move. I ran to the huge gates of the castle, and with one kick, it exploded to dust.

The knights who are training was shocked by the sudden commotion. They immediately halted their training in order to prepare for a fight. When the dust settled, they saw my figure and they're shocked to see that there is only one person who dared to fight them.

"Who is that?"

"An enemy? But why is he alone?"

"Do you think he's one of the immortal blades?"

"No, I heard that the 6 immortal blades are at the east and west side of the war field."

"Then who is he?"

"𝘚𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘦 𝘐 𝘥𝘰𝘯'𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘴𝘪𝘥𝘦𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳𝘺𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦. 𝘛𝘩𝘦𝘯 𝘐 𝘨𝘶𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘐 𝘤𝘰𝘶𝘭𝘥 𝘳𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘢𝘶𝘳𝘢 𝘰𝘧 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘮𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐'𝘷𝘦 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘶𝘱 𝘶𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘭 𝘯𝘰𝘸." I thought to myself

The atmosphere around us instantly became tense and cold, and it brought unimaginable pressure to the knights. This is an attack to a person's mental state, if a person that doesn't have a strong mentality gets attacked by this, they will faint instantly, or worse, they might die. But my control over my inner force allows me to target only those who I recognize as my enemies, preventing my allies from being affected.

All at once, the knights showed intense fear and despair on their faces and after 3 seconds, all of them fell to the ground. 21,884 fainted while 677 died.

"Weaklings"

After a few seconds, the strongest presence inside the castle that I felt earlier appeared in front of me. Wearing jetblack platemail, reddish skin, long dark red hair and pinkish eyes, while holding a huge sword. The Demon lord has appeared before me.

Nothing needed to be said between us, the moment we encountered we each other, we already knew that only one could leave here alive. But unfortunately for him, that'll be me.

Even if it's weak, I could feel his body enhancement surging throughout his entire body. He disappeared from his spot and reappeared 6 meters in front of me.

He swung his great sword at me horizontally, aiming to behead me. I fortified my left hand using my inner force, I held out my left hand and caught the sword, stopping it instantly, air exploded due to the collision and dust flew around us.

I applied a little more strength on my hands, instantly shattering the huge blade into fragments.

"WHAT!?" exclaimed Daso in shock

"Defend this well, or else... this fight might end instantly."

I aimed my right fist at Daso's stomach, I felt his mana concentrate on that spot in order to protect it. My fist is infused with 28% of my power, and the moment it hit Daso, his armor broke and my fist slammed into his body, sending him flying into the wall of the castle. It all happened in just a second that the Demon lord didn't have the time to process what just happened. He thew up a mouthful of blood and his body shook as he fixed his form.

"I-If my defensive magic didn't focus on that certain spot, the fight really would've ended at that moment. Who are you!? how can a mere human possess no magic, yet, have this much power!?"

"I have no obligation to answer any of your questions... Die."

[Demon magic: ASTARGA!]

"I didn't expect that I would use this against a mere human. Listen up, this Demonic body enhancement spell will increase my attack, defense, and speed by 200%, Don't expect to have an easy death, lowly human!"

"Is that so? then let's try it out then."

At that moment, I felt Nathia's presence and she appeared in a spot far away from me and nearer to the position of Daso as if she teleported.

"Lucas-sama, I captured him!"

When Daso heard her, he immediately dashed towards Nathia in an attempt to take her as hostage.

"𝘈𝘳𝘵 𝘰𝘧 𝘧𝘶𝘴𝘪𝘰𝘯: 𝘑𝘪𝘶𝘫𝘪𝘵𝘴𝘶 𝘴𝘺𝘴𝘵𝘦𝘮𝘢"

using 60% of my abilities, I dashed in front of Nathia and the demon lord, with extreme speeds, I kicked the demon lord's chin, sending him flying up above the sky while also hitting a vital point that disturbed the flow of his mana. I instantly jumped and drew out my sword from the subspace.

"𝘉𝘭𝘢𝘥𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘺𝘨𝘨𝘥𝘳𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘭, 17𝘵𝘩 𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘮: 𝘐𝘯𝘴𝘢𝘬𝘢"

with a clean slash, the demon lord's head separated from his body, and the life force that I'm feeling from him instantly disappeared. His body and head fell to the ground. I reappeared in front of Nathia who is dragging the paralyzed king binded with chains.

"Are you alright?"

"Yes! I'm perfectly fine, and also, the knights in hallway suddenly fell to the ground earlier, that's why I was able to abduct him easily!"

"Good work!" I said as I gave her headpats.

"Hehe, thank you Lucas-sama."

I looked at the king slumped on the ground, I grabbed his hair and yanked it so that I can see his face properly.

"So someone irresponsible and weak like this can be a king?"

At that moment, many civilians gathered at the front of the gates in order to look at the commotion. They number around hundreds of thousands.

"It looks like majority of the citizens are here."

I grabbed a fainted knight and removed all the armor the he is wearing. Since I have a distinctive appearance, I need to conceal myself in matters like these to avoid troubling the royal family. I wore the full platemail completely hiding away my body.

"Nathia, can you cast illusion magic on this armor to make it look like it have differend patterns, designs, and color?"

"Yes, please wait..."

[Illusion magic: reforma]

The armor that I'm wearing suddenly changed form and the silver color turned into a glowing gold, making me look like a holy warrior of some sorts. Nathia also hid herself by changing her fox characteristics into a cat and by changing her hair color into sky blue.

"Good, let's go and let the civilians meet their new rulers."

"Yes!"

Both of us walked into the eyes of the public while dragging the corpse of the Demon lord and the paralyzed king. When the citizens saw this, they immediately broke into panic.

"I-Isn't that the demon lord!?"

"Why does he have no head!? what happened to him!"

"And that's our king! why are both of them at hands of these two people!"

The crowd broke into commotion. In order to silence them, I decided to let Nathia who is beside me handle them. I would like to see how she handles this.

Nathia stepped forward and spoke in an authoritative voice.

"We are the loyal servants of the Guardian God, Larda, One of the 13 supreme Gods. At the orders of our master, we went down from the realm of the gods in order to aide the Elune kingdom in the precarious situation that they were in. All of you only have two options. Either you submit to Elune or Die at our hands."

The citizens discussed the matter among themselves and after an hour, all of them decided to submit.

I took out a flag of elune from my subspace. I dragged the king's body and placed it on top of the corpse of the demon lord. I raised the flag and stabbed it down through the head of the king and the corpse of Daso. Killing the king instantly in the process.

When the citizens saw this scene, all of them shook in fear. All of them knelt down and showed their complete submission.

...

"Lucas-sama, how about the Harval and Volar kingdoms? is it alright to ignore them?" asked nathia.

"Don't worry, both of them are weak without the support of Jahal. They would soom fall down at the hands of the immortal blades... Anyways, since I'm now adopting you, what do you want me to be? Foster father or brother?"

"I've always wanted an older sibling, so let's go with the latter!"

Right now, we have returned from the Jahal kingdom. The sun has already set and we're now at the orphanage. Since I'm basically nathia's teacher now, then I will have to adopt her in order to moniter her studies closely.

"And that finishes it up. Please take care of Nathia, your highness." said the real akaen. It looks like yumi already went back to the god realm since the akaen in front of me now has a completely different presence.

Right after that, we went back to the castle and I explained the fabricated situation that I made up.

I explained to the family that Nathia saved me from a robber when I was walking down the streets. Naturally, I also had sashi take part in this plan.

After a brief explanation. They finally accepted Nathia as my personal guard.

And just like that, the news of the death of the demon lord and Jahal's king reached our nation along with the piece of information that Servants of the Guardian God lended help to the Elune kingdom.

All of our citizens are jumping in joy when they heard that they won the war. Father threw a banquet for everyone in the town plaza.

"𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘐 𝘸𝘢𝘯𝘵 𝘵𝘰 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘦𝘤𝘵..." I thought to myself as I gazed at people and knights celebrating to their heart's content until they are drunk.
