Chapter 10- Journey to the border
Gabriel POV
FUFU I finally found one of the four swords, if you are wondering how, because the spy was actually the most trusted retainer of the demon king, after checking his memory I saw the demon sword they actually make it into family heirloom FUFUFU.
Well, that weapon was lost mythical weapon after all, the weapon in these worlds was divided into five classes on how rare and strong they are, the other three swords were also the same rank as the demon sword.
The class are.
Normal class- it will break if you pour some mana.
Magic class- a weapon that can contain a certain amount of mana.
Unique class- a weapon that can be found in a dungeon or the labyrinth
Legendary class- a weapon rarely seen in the ancient tomb of a legendary figure, this weapon was guarded by so many monsters or people.
Lost mythical weapon- due to the war called the War of the GODS the weapon they used was now scattered, destroyed or lost, this weapon can choose their owners, so sometimes they only saw it as a normal weapon because they cannot use it.
I saw the demon real form, he has black skin, some red line tattoos on the edge of his eyes down to his jaw, before making him my puppet I tortured him, breaking all of his bones and healed it again.
I didn’t kill him because he has some use, I ordered him to make some fake report to his own kingdom and give me the report of their order or information, I also learn that the ruler of the demon was not a king but a queen, FUFUFU certainly this is interesting.
We are now gathering outside the castle with the army, I am wearing my school uniform right now and has a 5meter huge heavy sword on my back if you are wondering why would I use a heavy sword? Well, the reason was simple, it was the perfect weapon you can use in the war.
And with my strength, I just have to swing it and I can kill many soldiers that will come at me, FUFUFU the battlefield will be my own playground, I notice Claudia signal us to move out.
We are now currently passing in the kingdom town, the citizen of these kingdoms was gathered at the side cheering at us, the queen waved her hands and smiled at her people, I saw some female staring at me so I smiled at them some of them even fainted.
FUFU I didn’t know that my charm can actually use like that, I felt someone pinch me and saw Philia smiling, above her head was a woman with a dark aura wearing a mask with a knife in her hand, hey your smile is a scary stop that, please!
“ Ouch, what are you doing Philia”
“ We are now currently going to the war, do you really have the time to flirt with the girls in this town?” Philia smiled
Cold sweat started to come out of my body, so I stop looking at the side and walk, this woman was scary! I felt a chill run down on my spine every time I am reminded about that smile, trying to shake my thought Claire approach me.
“Mind your behavior the citizen was now looking at us, I don’t want to make them think that we are a bunch of clowns that going into the war, our morale will go down so please keep your nasty personality for now” Claire

HOY YOU DON”T HAVE TO BE BLUNT, RIGHT? You actually see me as a villain, I almost cry.
“ You sure are an honest person don’t you think so?”
“FUFU, you realize it now” Claire
This person got a more nasty personality, I saw some adventurer looking at me in disdain they think my huge sword was just for show, they saw me as a thin young man carrying a huge sword to show off, what a bunch ignorant of people.
We are now outside the town, a huge man with a scar on his cheek suddenly approaches us, the queen slowed is speed.
“ This man is general Hawkins Muno one of my trusted people” Claudia
“ Nice to meet you General, my name is Gabriel Logan”
The man smiled at me and put his hand on my shoulder, I realize this man is a battle maniac, I met a lot of guys like him who enjoyed battle more than anyone, you could see his whole body covered with a scar and this guy's attitude tell me that the battle was his greatest pleasure.
“ Actually, I really want to personally meet you, I even went to the trouble to make the queen accept my request but got rejected” Hawkins
“ Is that so”
Why do I always meet people like this, my experience with a battle maniac was not really good, every battle maniac, I got close with offended a kingdom or a powerful clan, the result of it was my own death.
Well, now was different, even they join forces to kill me, they will not be able to do so, I am now much stronger that before, I remember that my mother was also reincarnated I will find her after all of this is done.
“ Yeah, I really want to fight you, but the queen always blocks me” Hawkins
“Well, spare me from the trouble, I don’t want to get beaten by mighty a general like you FUFU”
“ Don’t be humble you defeated the princess that even I couldn’t defeat” Hawkins
See, he was a battle maniac, my instinct with freak people was so powerful that I can even tell their abnormality FUFU.
“ Hawkins, don't give him a trouble, we are engaging in a war now, you could unleash your battle instinct in the battle, not to your companion” Claudia
“ Certainly, your majesty, I apologize for my behavior” Hawkins
Hawkins return to his original post, I approach the queen.
“Sorry for the trouble”
“ It's fine, I should be the one apologizing, Hawkins really like to battle so after hearing a news about you, he wants to experience battling with you” Claudia
“ Is that so, its fine people like that are always amusing FUFU”
“ You actually enjoying this, aren’t you? You are so calm, we are going to war, are you really that confident in your ability?” Claudia
“I am, don’t you believe me?”
“ I am, but be careful we don’t know what will happen in the war so don’t be careless” Claudia
“ Are you worried about me, my queen?”
“M.....y.... My.... Queen?”
FUFU I really like to tease this ruler, Noa approaches me and suddenly said.
“Hey playboy, can you even lift that sword on your back?” Noa
“Of course, I can, why would I carry it if not?”
“ Certainly, hey do you have some method to directly slash an armor? I am worried about my family heirloom that it will break”
Then don’t bring it damn it! Why would you even fight with a wooden katana in a war are you looking for your death!

“ I have, but do you think I will teach you?”
“ I will do anything you want just teach me about it”
Whoa, so anything that I want? FUFU I am starting to drool about the thing that I want her to do, but why do I feel that someone was staring dagger at me.
I turn my head a saw Philia with her scary smile, hey, since when did you develop that skill to make me scared like this!
“ Okay, in return for teaching this skill go back alive”
Noa was surprised at my answer as she blushes, the image saved! FUFU this kind of Noa was rare after all, Thanks for the treat FUFU.
Oops, I forget Philia was still staring dagger at me, chill started to get down at my spine please take that Girl away for a minute, she’s scary, I decided to ignore my cold spine and talk to Noa.
“ Hmm, you want to slash an armor? I can teach you something about normal armor, but I can’t do anything about magic weapons”
“ That's fine, tell me how doing it?” Noa
“ Compress your ki in the edge of your wooden katana it will increase its sharpness by fifteen fold”
“ That's all? What a simple skill if I have known this before I could kill more easily” Noa said quietly
Did I make a mistake to teach her that skill? Well, worse can happen was she will go even crazier than before, what a bloody person this is if someone looks at you when you fight you seem like infected from the virus vladi fectus going frenzy like that! Are you a vampire that you love bloodshed like that?
Well, I am not surprised, even in the earth, there is a psychological disease that you will go frenzy, and want to fight anyone very much that even your eyes will turn blood red.
The day end, we set camp to a nearby plain grass surrounded with tree, we are currently traveling in the forest to make haste in the border, we still need fifteen or twenty days, depending on our encounter with a monster, if this will go well we can even make it on the border in twelve days.
I am now sitting with Claudia, Claire, Jin, Brigitte, Noa, Pola, and Philia, we are now chatting to release the tension that they are currently possessing due to the pressure of war FUFU, I am very experienced with war so I don’t have a problem with it.
I even battled against an army alone in my previous lives without getting injured, in war the weapon you use is essential, the weapon that is better to use in the war was glaive or huge sword to kill many enemies efficiently.
Do I turn into a dragon and kill all the demons marching... FUFU of course I will not do that, if I do that where is the fun and besides, if I change my form into a dragon, and kill the demon with it, it will cause a war between dragons, humad and demons.
This world will be turmoil, I don’t want to destroy this world, FUFU the world is better if you have many toys you can play with.
“ How many days we will need before we reach the border, dear sister?” Pola
“ If we didn’t encounter any monster at least thirteen days” Claudia
“ What is those demons look like?” Jin
“ I saw a few documents regarding the demon continent, they have elf, devil, vampire, undead, demon, Lich, werewolves and fairy”
“ I suspect we won’t see the elf, werewolves, fairy, Lich, and undead”
“Why?” Brigitte
“ Those monsters didn’t co-exist with each other, but they still recognize the demon king, the elf secluded themselves in the forest with the fairy, Lich and undead stayed at night because they can’t handle the sunlight, and the werewolves are humad to begin with, we just exiled them because of their curse”
“ Oh” Jin and Philia
“ You really know a lot about this world” Philia
“ Well, of course, I am a genius after all”
“ You actually know a lot about our world” Claire
“ Yeah, I am surprised too, you actually learn all that in less than a month” Claudia
FUFU, Yeah revered me, I am a very wise man after all, I told them a lot of information regarding our foes, this time, if the lich and undead join the war we need to counter them with holy attribute, undead are not very strong but they are very troublesome to kill, if you don’t shred them to pieces they will not die.
Lich is a undead that has intelligence, they are more dangerous than the undead, Lich can use dark magic after all.
We don't have that much problem with the devil and demon, we just have to cut them or thrust their heart and then they will die.
We can deal with the vampire with silver or magic, I don’t have a problem with any of them, I can just smash them into a meat patty with my huge sword, this fight is going to be fun FUFU.
When morning came we resumed our journey, these past few days we encountered many monsters like a pack of wolves who like to hunt when night fall, we have a serious problem with them because every night they disturb our sleep and kill some the inexperienced soldier.
We all killed them immediately so that, we won’t have any consequence anymore, by the way, our army number is about twenty-five thousand.
I didn’t mention them earlier because I thought they are not needed FUFU, my faithful demon servant doing his job well, he reports to me that the demon army will halt their advance and prepare for a plan to destroy the border.
The Demon queen ordered him to report when will the humad army will come, I ordered my servant to give a false report that we march all of our armies to the border and right now there are only a few soldiers protecting the kingdom.
The reasons I gave her that false report was to minimize their soldier and make her directly attack the kingdom to gain a victory, but of course there are two generals in kingdom protecting it.
The queen was simple as I can say she really attack in pincer strategy, according to my spy, but that pincer will not be able to hold us, because every side of it has a strong support how can she gain a victory if there are two generals and many soldiers on both sides, addition to us, our victory is already successful in the border.
She can win if she mobilizes all of her armies to the kingdom, but she can’t do that, her kingdom will be left defenseless, if they attack ours why not her? And she can’t leave her citizen defenseless, so she will need to continue her pincer strategy if she doesn’t want to lose tremendously.
After she loses, our journey will, even more, safer, she needs to re-organize her army on her kingdom because the losses in the war were great, she needs to make her soldiers retreat on her kingdom to not lose more of her men.
FUFU my plan was like two birds with one stone, of course, I know her strategy will be a pincer attack because I know the queen personality in the spy memory.
We are now outside the camp sparring to hone our skill and not to get it rusty, I was now fighting Noa.
“ Noa, don't get very serious or else I will die FUFUFU”
“ I will say the same word to you” Noa
She makes an evil grin, hey, what is that means?
While I was lost in my thoughts, she suddenly disappeared and I notice that the Noa, who grin earlier was only an after-image she suddenly appeared before me, Wai... Wait! That's the skill I taught her!
I realize that her wooden katana has gray light glowing at the edge and attack me into the top of my head, I move sidestep and dodge it in a breath of air, what a dangerous girl, she was really going to kill me!
Hey, do you know the word sparring!? While I am shouting in my mind, on the surface my face was calm, I attack her with a full swing and she dodges it, but she got blown away by the force of my attack FUFU.
The soldiers exhaled a cool air and began to clap, actually, the soldiers who are in the front got blown away too, some of them lose consciousness because of the force.
Noa was now using her full power and use her moonlight-fog, attacking me with her fourteen after-images with alternative presence and concealing, I saw her going at my back planning to slash me, I used an after-image with presence to pretending that she got me.
She smiled when her katana came into contact with my after-image, you are easy to read girl, I brought my huge sword to her neck and said.
“FUFU you got more to learn Noa”
She pouts her cheek, how cute she looks like a hamster, I really want to poke those pouted cheek FUFU.
After the sparring with Noa, as I was about to go back to my place to enjoy the next fight, I was challenged by Hawkins.
“ Can I be the next one Gabriel-Sama” Hawkins
FUFU I will teach this guy on how much difference we have, I will destroy your hope right now to surpass me general so be careful FUFUFU.
“ Well, if you insist general”
I glance at Claire so we can start our battle.
“ Okay, same rules as ever no attacking in vital parts, especially no killing” Claire
“ Are the both sides ready?”
I nodded to Claire and Hawkins nodded as well.
“ Start”
Claire signaled her hand down, I gaze at Hawkins, who was completely calm.....

8 451The Successor
The Immortal God Emperor is dead...yet his Successor will one day arise. The worlds had long moved on from the greatest Cultivator of all time. The things that had been achieved and the advances made in the Immortal God Emperor's absence were nothing to turn one's nose up at. And yet, something was always missing. Because Cultivators, no matter the goals they pursue, always bow to the greater power. They seek it, they covet it for themselves, and they serve it with reverence. Shan Kai Lan was born into such a world. Born to two herb farmers whose cultivation did not surpass the Foundation Realm, yet who loved their son more than anything. Kai Lan was a child blessed by the Spiritual Plain, far more gifted and more intelligent than others his age. Yet the more profound his achievements, the greater the likelihood that his happy, peaceful life would be trampled on by those who desired his potential for themselves. The question of Kai Lan's journey becomes not whether he will reach the highest peak of cultivation, but what he will be forced to do to keep his young Clan, and the happiness it provides, at peace.
