Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 123 - The six heroes

After destroying the body of the undead dragon until all its bones turned into ashes, Nezzard felt his consciousness flickering. Not only was his stamina drained even his mana was nearing its limit. 'Tsk, I've become so much weaker.'

"What's happening to you Nez?" Zoella asked worriedly as she noticed something was off with Nezzard. This was the first time she has seen Nezzard look so weak. The Sleeping Lion of Reschbeauch has never been seen to look this fragile.

Hearing Zoella's worried voice, Nezzard couldn't help but click his tongue as he fainted.

...

In the distance, Valdel and the others were watching Nezzard's battle against the young undead dragon. Even though they were told to run, the group couldn't help but watch Nezzard's fight against the undead dragon and be dazzled by it. Valdel was amazed at how easily Nezzard fought such a strong opponent. Aside from Ren, he has never seen someone winning against a powerful opponent in such an overwhelming fashion.

All throughout the battle, Nezzard had total control of the flow, he was the one who dictated the beginning and the end. He didn't even allow the undead dragon to use dragon's breath. Still, the most surprising thing was those two beings he summoned. The two beings Nezzard summoned were beings of pure mana, they're basically lumps of mana converged together to form a physical shape. They were like the elementals but somehow they feel a cut above the rest.

After the battle was done Nezzard who won without even getting hit, looked pale and was breathing heavily. When Valdel saw what was happening, he started running towards Nezzard while the others followed. As he was approaching Nezzard he saw the bodies of the beings he summoned were fading.

"Damn it! And I just got released!" After screaming the female and male summoned beings disappeared and Nezzard fainted.

"Nezzard!" Valdel shouted as he started running faster. As he was getting closer he noticed that one of the rings Nezzard was wearing started to glow. The glow of the ring was now shining brighter which blinded Valdel and the others momentarily. It was then a magic circle appeared that encompassed twenty meters of the are starting from Nezzard's body.

...

Valdel who was caught up in the magic circle was surprised to see himself inside the Guild Master's room. Even Hilda and the others were teleported. Everyone except for Natasha and Rachel was shocked by this sudden teleportation.

'What happened?' The moment Valdel asked this question he suddenly remembered what happened and tried to locate Nezzard's body. After searching for a bit, Valdel spotted Nezzard's body laying on the ground while another ring on his fingers was shining enveloping him in warm green light.

Valdel didn't know what was happening and was afraid to move Nezzard's body since he wasn't sure what the ring was doing.

Natasha noticing Valdel's confusion approached him. "That's an Olous ring. As expected from the sleeping lion of Reschbeauch he planned for everything."

"What's an Olous ring?" Natasha and Rachel looked surprised by Valdel's question, but then they remembered that such information wasn't widely known. Natasha happily smiled and was about to answer, but Rachel beat her to it. Natasha glared at Rachel as the latter started to happily explain what the Olous ring was.

"The Olous ring is a divine item and only six of them exist in the world today. It is said that during the age of chaos, The God of love Olous granted these rings to six heroes that were summoned to fight the strongest tyrant of the Demon race the Demon Lord Kretos."

'The Demon Lord Kretos?... That's the first time I heard of the name. There are no stories in the village that ever spoke of him.'

"To defeat the demon lord the God's decided to help, thus granting the six heroes those rings. The ring of Olous' function was that if your mana was nearly depleted, it would activate and restore your mana five times faster than normal."

"That's amazing, so how did the guild master gain such a precious ring?" Kithra who was listening on the side joined the conversation. Rachel was about to answer, but this time Natasha interrupted her and answered first.

"Nezzard Netter, the sleeping lion of Reschbeauch is from a very noble family. It isn't public knowledge, but It is said that the Netter family are direct descendants of one of those six heroes that faced Demon Lord Kretos."

Hilda who was also listening at the side was so surprised to hear that the lazy guild master she used to work for was a direct descendant of a hero. She knew that he was a noble, but she didn't know about his hero lineage. This was truly an eye-opener for her, how could a person born from such a family become such a slacker?

Valdel was also interested in Nezzard's hero lineage, but for some reason, he was more interested in Demon Lord Kretos.

"So did they win?" Iselv who placed the sleeping Lara at a corner of the room joined in the conversation.

"Did who win?"

"Did the six heroes win against the demon lord?" Iselv asked the thing Valdel wanted to know the most. This time it was Rachel who was waiting to answer this question. As she was about to answer Natasha pinched her side, but the holy maiden of the God of war wasn't bothered by such a measly attack.

"Unfortunately the six heroes lost their lives against the powerful demon lord. Even with the rings that practically granted them an endless stream of mana, even with the weapons blessed by the Gods, even with their skills that were at the peak of humanity they still lost against the powerful demon lord. Still, after the battle the demon lord did something that no one understood, the tyrannic demon lord gave back the six heroes' bodies to their families. He didn't even take their powerful weapons nor the rings of Olous."

"Tell me who is this demon lord? Is he famous? Why haven't I heard of him before?" Valdel suddenly asked.

"Well, the records of the Demon Lord Kretos can only be accessed by the holy maidens and high priests of the temples, also each royal family of every human kingdom has their own secret records about the demon lord."

"Why?" Valdel couldn't understand why keep such information secret?

Rachel didn't know how to answer this question, on the other hand, Natasha smiled slyly. "If you become my hero I'll be able to answer that question. So what do you say?" Rachel was surprised by this sudden attack by Natasha and spoke up as well.

"I'm offering you the same thing as well. If you want, even if you don't become my hero, I'll still tell you a bit about demon lord Kretos. I'm sure telling you just a tiny bit more won't be bad." Natasha glared at Rachel and summoned her weapon as she suddenly showed a smile that wasn't a smile.

"What are you saying, you cow woman? If Sir Valdel wants to hear about demon lord Kretos he could just come to me, I'll even give him something extra as I tell him the story." Natasha sucked her finger seductively.

"What are you saying you b*tch!" Rachel summoned her weapon as well and was about to fight Natasha, Valdel had no choice but to intervene.

Hilda who was watching the whole fiasco sighed as she left the room. She needed to report the current situation to the vice-guild leader.
