《Reincarnation》Chapter 17

-Alex(military guy) POV-

I was assigned into the group that was to investigate the town I reported about. Including myself there were 19 other B ranks in the group and a single A rank. The A rank assign to the mission was known as Mjolnir . He specialized in lighting and used two special broadsword. He could combine both of them to form a large hammer he called Mjolnir which is the origin of his title. Mjolnir drastically increase the destruction caused by his blows, in exchange he sacrifices his speed while wielding his trademark weapon. He is extremely famous as expected of an A rank. Anyone with that level of strength are normally famous and known by plenty of people which made me all the more curious of the identity of the dark knight that day.

Most A rank were given a title based on their weapon and element they specialized in using. Its hopeless for me to hope to be able to become a A rank since I didn’t have any affinity with any element. It was defiantly hopeless for me. Seeing a battle between S rank was somewhat of a wake up call. I would never amount to anymore than just another B rank in the military. Perhaps i was a fool dream of trying to reach A rank despite not having much talent but I should have known I could never go any further than this. I mean more than a decade ago I was having trouble when I was fighting against little girls. Come to think of it one of the little girl was beautiful as well I imagine she would be as beautiful as that dragon girl if she grew up. Well she died in an accident along with another one of the three girls that day. The only survivor was now an A rank of all things. So much younger yet so much more accomplished than I would ever be.

If anything I wasn’t even qualified to help the new system implemented a few years back. A few years back all the A ranks in the military and a few selected talented individual in the B rank were given a choice of multiple daemas to form a bond with. It was a special magic seal developed by the researchers within the military that allowed a master contract towards daema that has submitted, by defeating them and getting them to acknowledge the caster. Once the contract was sealed the daema will apparently be loyal towards the master who used the seal. Its my own hypothesis but I assume the reason the higher ups is obsessed with my report is because taming a dragon would be a huge accomplishment and give them the fire power to protect the country from more than just daema possibly even other countries that might attack us. Our country is controlled by humans which could be considered one of the weaker ones compared to the countries belonging to the elves, fairies and dwarfs. The demibeast country probably stand no chance since they didn’t have much technological advancement . In fact rather than a country they were just various tribes scattered across a large area. They don’t have a proper government of any sort. If anything their primal ways are the main reason demibeast are discriminated in the other countries. The mermaids and merman country is underwater hence they most likely have no interest in taking over land above their underwater domain. Our country military needs to even go as far as to rely on daema as a safety measure to have means to fight back if we do go to war. Despite my lack of talent I’m still one of the upper tier ranks purely from working hard so I do have access to information not available to people lower than B rank. Slavery is still common within the elf country and the human country but it is mostly enjoyed by the royalty or nobility of the countries.

Our country is the only country with some of the other races who migrated into it for various reasons. This isn’t true for humans who all stay within this country due to the fact we are indeed the superior race in the country. Despite that our countries S rank are all not of the human race. They were still under our country simply because they were born in this country. I have been thinking a lot lately about the relationships between the countries because of the various different measures our country military is taking to increase our strength. The journey to the town took some time anyways so these are the various things I had been thinking about while we journeyed to the town.

Eventually our group finally reached the town in which the battle took place just several days ago. Due to the fact that we had reached our destination I was asked by mjolnir to show them the area which their fight had took place. My partner wasn’t part of the group since he had gotten injured on our way back. I lead the way to the area where the pillar of fire had appeared. As we made our way there we had time to look around the town which was now in ruins. We could see some people trying to salvage as much stuff from what was probably their home before the incident. The military had sent aid to the town which had set up some temporary shelter in the plains outside the town.

Reaching the site of the battle we could see the various craters almost as if there had been a meteor shower. Large scars were littered across the ground. There was one crater in particular that was several times bigger than the rest. Mjolnir went ahead and jumped into the largest crater to see what could be found. Shortly after he had jumped in he called me to follow suit. I went ahead and jumped in to see what he had called me for. What greeted me in the centre of the crate were various pieces of armor scattered around the center. A sword was piercing the ground in the middle of the crater.

“Is this the armor and weapon of the black knight from you’re report.”

“Yes sir” without hesitation I replied the truth since the armor does look like what the black knight I had saw was wearing. After which mjolnir called the rest of the B rank down to help transport the armor back to base. After searching the rest of the town we could find no traces of the Dragon as I had expected since she obviously had no reason to stay. Well we still had the armor and weapon of the black knight which we assume had been killed by the dragon girl.

-Ria POV-

It has been several days since the fight yet, my wounds have yet to fully recover. They were however for the most part good enough for me to leave the cave. The various wounds I had then has already closed up leaving no traces of a scar of any sort unlike what one would expect with injuries that severe. I could stil however feel some internal damage that hasn’t fully heal. It should heal in another day or so.

Nevertheless I had no intention of remaining in the cave so I left my hiding spot and walked back to the town to see if the villagers were alright. It was stupid I know, but I couldn’t get rid of the guilt I felt for destroying their home. I just want to make sure they were alright than I will leave. I did spent a rather long time in the town so I recognized a few people.

I had walked all the way back to the plains when I spotted a group of twenty one people leaving the town. They were also carrying the armour and sword of the dark knight I had defeated. Staying at the border of the forest that separated the plains and the forest I stared at them for a while.

Thinking about it with the town destroyed I currently have no idea where to go. I had no fixed goal as well. After contemplating several things I could do. I decided to use my stalking skills I had somehow mastered to see where the group were going. It could be an interesting town of some sort. The people of the town seemed to be fine as well so I had nothing holding me back.

With my mind made up I started to stalk a new group of people. Bigger than before but that should make this much easier than before since it will be harder to lose track of such a big group. I can’t help but wonder what this new place would be like.

(Author note) : A boring chapter i know but i still haven't fully explained the world from my imagination and i hope to make it believable to the best of my current abilities. Still a fairly new writer since this is the longest story i have ever written in my life . If there are flaws please do point them out i really do appreciate the help. A sidenote i suck at making names :'( . If you guys can think of a better title than mjolnir feel free to comment it.
