Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 413 - The End Of The Nightmare?

The Primordial Demon was confused by the chain of events. Everything happened so fast that his brain was unable to keep up. Ren waited for a minute or two for the Primordial Demon's answer but the Primordial Demon did not respond.

"Did you not hear me?" Ren asked as he squeezed even tighter on the Primordial Demon's neck.

"Are you… T-the… Strongest Mortal… Soul?" When Ren heard the Primordial Demon's question the smile on his face grew wider.

"What do you think?" Seeing that smile and hearing his response, the Primordial Demon felt his heart sinking in despair. That would mean that there was no hope for escape.

"W-w… Wh… Wh… Why?" Despite how difficult it was to speak while his throat was being squeezed, the Primordial Demon couldn't help but ask.

"Why, what?" Ren loosened his grip since he was rather interested in what the Primordial Demon was going to say. When the grip on his neck loosened and he was able to talk properly the Primordial Demon glared at Ren.

"… Why, why do you always get in our way?! We are just doing this to stay alive. Aren't we allowed to stay alive? Humans and the other races murder and steal all the time, we're not doing anything wrong. All we're doing is just showing them their true nature. We're just doing this because we need this to live! We're not evil, so why do you treat us as such?"

"Huh?" Ren looked at the Primordial Demon dumbfounded and scratched his head. "I think you're misunderstanding something here. I'm not doing this because I'm denying your way of life. It's just part of nature, you know the survival of the fittest, right? If a lion's pride was attacked wouldn't he defend himself and his pride? Since your attacking those under me, of course, I will retaliate. If you were stronger wouldn't I be the one to die, but since I'm the stronger one then you guys need to keep your heads down. Truth be told I wouldn't even bother with you if you gathered the malice naturally, but you're forcing events on a large scale, I can't have that."

"Also I have never treated you or any other being as evil. Good and evil are such subjective terms. In your eyes, you have done nothing wrong since you are doing what you're doing because it's necessary for you to live. On the other hand, in the eyes of the people that you have tricked you guys are pure evil. You know I was also once subjected to this good and evil bullcrap. Back in my previous incarnation, I was treated as an evil being by the other races, but I was treated as a noble king by my own people. To the other races, the heroes that attacked us were good, but to the demons of that time, the heroes were evil invaders. So you see I don't look at others with stupid labels like good or evil. Well, now that I explained myself, I will ask again what's your choice?"

The Primordial Demon wasn't expecting Ren to give such a long answer, but what he said did make sense. The Primordial Demon was silent for a while before he sighed and gave his answer.

"Please absorb my spirit." Hearing the Primordial Demon's answer, Ren nodded his head and injected a large amount of his mana into the Primordial Demon's body, which made it explode. Once the body was gone, only the spirit remained which Ren absorbed.

'Alright now that's done, let's see what my disciple is doing now.'

…

It was already night time as Arthur continued his rampage. Even though there were a lot of soldiers that were able to escape, those that stayed had all died. At this moment there was only one soldier left, he was a commander level soldier.

Right now Arthur's movement had slowed down greatly, his mana supply had decreased considerably. At this point [The Berserker's Will] was about to deactivate. Arthur's body which was constantly regenerating before stopped doing that, as of right now Arthur was full of wounds. Still, even in this state, he was too much to handle for the commander.

After a few exchanges, Arthur was able to kill the commander. Once he was done with the commander, his technique [The Berserker's Will] deactivated. As he slowly regained his sanity, Arthur felt his whole body was like a brick, it was so heavy and he found it hard to breathe. Still, he looked around to see if he had finished his mission, that was when he noticed that there was still one person alive.

The person who was left was the most important target, it was none other than Duke Reginald. Since he just sat there without moving the berserk Arthur wasn't able to notice him. Now that he spotted him, Arthur tried his hardest to move towards the Duke so that he can finish his mission.

…

Reginald couldn't believe his eyes the thousands of men that were part of the various armies of the noble houses were annihilated by one kid. As he witnessed the last commander die in the child's hands, he could hear his heart beating loudly. It was then Arthur looked at him, as their eyes met Reginald gulped, and his body trembled. He felt his body sweating like crazy as Arthur slowly approached him.

When Arthur was nearing him, it was at that moment the horrifying child finally collapsed from his wounds. Reginald was stunned by the sight, it took him a second to realize what had happened. Once it sunk in that Arthur had fallen, all the shame and rage he felt came back to him. He then started laughing in a crazed manner.

"HAHAHAHA! As expected today is not the day I fall. Even the heavens are on my side! Now to claim the honor of killing this horrific monster." Reginald approached the fallen body of Arthur, and he raised his sword and swung it downward. As the sword was about to slash Arthur, someone suddenly appeared in between them and caught the blade with his thumb and index finger.

The person that appeared didn't bother looking at Reginald as he stared at the fallen Arthur and sighed.

"I guess I need to intensify your training after this." The stranger mumbled to himself. As Reginald was about to yell, the stranger looked at him and spoke. "As for you…" The moment those words left the stranger's mouth a heavy pressure made Reginald's body fall to the ground.
