Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 143 One Down



"...As I thought, swords really aren't for me."

Those were the battle priestess' remarks to herself as she walked towards Leviron who was immobilized on the floor due to the combination of its severe injuries and the pain that came along with them.

"If I left you like this without my skill in this scenario, you would eventually recover, but I have to wait for my magic power to recover before I can heal myself.

Quite unfair, don't you think?"

Her sapphire eyes darkened as she coldly gazed at the blade wraith who was rousing its energy to accelerate its healing process, only to be met with more pain and agony as its injuries worsened instead.

Seeing this, she only clicked her tongue and rose the sword in her hands in the air, before bringing it down on the monster's neck and slicing it into its neck.

**PUKK!

"Hmm? I didn't cut through cleanly? I guess the bones of an above level 100 monster aren't that easy to break."

She rose the sword in the air and swung it down again with all her strength, her swing severing the monster's head from the rest of its body.

"Eight Levels? No, they're nine..."

She was initially confused due to the number of level-up notifications she was seeing, however, she remembered that they were in a dungeon that doubled the experience they received and the monster room made it quadruple!

"So, I'm level 95 now, huh?"

Eliza opened her status board as she deactivated her child of life skill, her body feeling momentarily weakened even after the increase in strength she received due to the numerous level-ups.

She made her way to one of the walls of the room and sat down on the ground, resting her back on the wall as she gazed at her status.

Seeing the new title that had appeared, the young battle priestess let out a depreciating laugh as she spoke to herself.

"I left home so I could avoid this, but it seems to have followed me instead, huh..."

Her words were heard by no one, save the being from a higher plane who caused her to enter her current state in the first place.

Fortunately, or unfortunately, she was unaware of this being's existence.

◇ ◇ ◇

Now then, let us backtrack to half an hour ago, the moment before Evan blinked right behind Elecrus and activated his unique skill.

The young hero's two ray eyes stared right into the two red eyes of the golden armoured blade wraith.

Many thoughts went through his mind, as he wondered whether he should pull out all the stops and use his limit break skill, however, he decided against that as using the skill would leave him weakened greatly, something he couldn't allow to happen to him as far as he was still in the dungeon.

'In that case, I have no choice but to bombard him with my most combo of skills while trying to leave just enough magic power to activate limit break in the event that these three blade wraiths aren't the only enemies we have to face.'

He briefly glanced at his two party members, concluding that the both of them would be able to hold their own against their opponents.

'Pride would most likely use this guy to get herself back into shape, testing out how efficient her techniques are on it currently.'

The demon of Pride did not actually consider the blade wraith to be a difficult opponent at all.

While she was not able to easily kill Glavore, she was more than capable of taking it out without having to rely on her unique skill or more advanced techniques and magic, but she refrained from doing so due to the fact that she was using it to evaluate just how powerful she was currently.

And what better training dummy to use than a master-level blade wraith that delivered itself straight to her doorstep?

As for the level difference between them?

That didn't really matter when faced with her Pride Embodiment skill!

She had the power of Hubris on her side, Evan didn't worry about her at all!

His main worry was Eliza who was less than thirty levels lower than her opponent, and worst of all, was not a master-level existence at all.

Although Evan had dealt a lot of damage to Leviron earlier, it didn't change the fact that Leviron had quite a lot of strength left.

'However, she should be fine! She should be able to hold her own and even possibly kill him too!'

The reason for his confidence in her, his confidence that she could take out a weakened master-level existence enemy more than thirty levels higher, despite the fact that she was more of a support class than a fighter, was quite simple.

It was the reason he even bothered to get close to Eliza when they first met in Luka.

It was because of her 'Child Series Skill'!

Unlike its 'Breath Series' counterpart, the Child of life skill, was not a support skill in any way shape, or form.

In fact, all the child series skills were powerful attack skills, even if some of them had support abilities embedded into them.

After all, it was because of the 'Child of Lightning' skill that Jenson was able to defeat the 'Crawling Lightning', a monster that had a body that was made of lightning!

It was also with the 'Child of Fire' skill that Bourne became known to the world as the 'Human Flame', despite the fact that he also possessed a skill that let him manipulate gravity!

Taking note of these, it was impossible for the 'Child of Life' skill to be any less powerful than its other elemental brethren.

Evan recalled the description of the skill that he got with his appraisal, a description that didn't do the skill justice!

|Child of Life;

Type: Unique Skill (Child Series)

Effect;

Allows the user to sense, shape, and manipulate the essence of life for the duration of the skill. The greater the degree of manipulation, the higher the magic power cost.

While active, the user is capable of utilizing the essence of life both positively and negatively, ranging from positive uses like regrowing lost limbs to clearing status effects, and cleansing corruption effects, to negative uses like undoing wounds, diseases, and injuries on living beings that have been previously healed or cured, to preventing regenerative processes and rupturing internal organs.

Restriction: The Skill can only be used three times daily (3/3).

Initial activation requires half the user's maximum magic power, and can be substituted for vitality when necessary. |

Even though one could tell how broken it was from the description, Evan still felt it was a subpar description.

'I remember that the owner of the skill was the wife of the Laneford clan's master. She was shown in a flashback event that happened around the mid stages of the game.

Sadly, she died before the events of the game started and the skill was supposedly lost.

The fact that Eliza has the skill right now, means that she's already dead now.'

He shook his head to get rid of the useless thoughts as he charged his Vortex and stared back at the blade wraith facing him in silence.

'That 'guy' is definitely stopping them from moving, otherwise, the blade wraiths would have attacked us by now.'

Those were his thoughts as the adventurer trio stared at their opponents that had taken up similar stances, allowing them to either attack first or counterattack with ease.

Silence pervaded the entire area as both teams stared at each other motionlessly.

In the next moment...

'Blink'

Evan called out in his mind as he vanished from the spot he was in, reappearing right behind the surprised Elecrus as he thrust his sword arm forward

"Vortex."

Evan suddenly appeared right behind Elecrus and unleashed his most powerful skill without hesitation.

A whirling mass of spiral-shaped magic power slammed into the unguarded back of the blade wraith Elecrus.

The blade wraith attempted to coat its entire body with its golden aura, but it was already disoriented by the force that abruptly slammed into its back, making it incapable of properly manipulating its aura.

Evan's sword came through the centre of the magic power storm and pierced through the blade wraith's armour, stabbing into its flesh like a knife going into butter.

Elecrus' blood-red eyes widened as it let out a roar of rage, simultaneously releasing a burst of its golden lightning-attributed aura.

**BAM
