Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 80 - Reasonable man

Ren who had just left the Guild Master's room was heading straight to the pub inside of the adventurers guild. As he was walking, he passed by the receptionist area, he then heard someone calling his name.

"Sir Ren, please wait." One of the guild receptionist approached him.

"What is it?"

"Someone is here looking for you." The guild receptionist pointed to a stern faced looking man, wearing some high class armor. Ren could pretty much feel that there was some sort of spells within the armor itself. The man Ren was looking at looked at him as well and seem to be assessing him. Ren who saw this, could now guess who the man was. Though he didn't know what he looked like, he was sure that the man looking for him was the knight commander of those knights he recently beaten up.

Ren raised his arm and waved at the man. The man seeing Ren do this approached him.

"Are you Ren?"

"Yeah, and you must be that knight commander, Sepchel, those guys keep on screaming about." Ren said this with a smile on his face, as if he was provoking Sepchel. Yet unlike his little brother Sepchel wasn't provoked and simply nodded his head.

'I see so he really is different from his younger brother.' As Ren was thinking this, he felt someone probe him with mana sensing. It was obvious who was doing this, so to show the other party that he wasn't one to be messed with, he showed him a glimpse into his current mana pool.

The moment Sepchel who was scanning Ren felt his mana pool, he shivered. Though he didn't show it in his face, Sepchel was shocked, or to be more precise he was scared. This man that he thought was at the same level as him, or was slightly stronger than him, was in fact actually so much more than that.

"I have come here to apologize." Sepchel was quick to act. The moment he realized Ren was somebody he truly didn't want to deal with, he switched to a more accommodating tone.

"Well, I'm okay with that, but before you get to apologizing, how about we get a drink first?" Ren gestured Sepchel to follow him. When Ren got to the pub area of the adventurers guild, he walked towards a table. The people who were sitting on that table Ren was eyeing, saw Ren approaching, which made them scatter away.

The people of the guild knew who Ren was, even though he was merely a B rank adventurer, Ren was a person who survived facing off against an Elder Lich. Though the Elder Lich was away from its army of undead, to be able to survive such a thing with only three people in his party, was a testament of Ren's skill. Also they were people present on the day Ren arrived at the adventurers guild. Those who witnessed him fight had one thought, this was not someone you should mess with.

Ren seeing the table he wanted was now empty took a seat, Sepchel who was behind him followed and sat down as well.

"Hey, two drinks over here. Also give us some food!" Ren shouted at one of the barmaids.

"So what were you saying? You came to apologize, what are you apologizing for?" After ordering his drink and food, Ren's attention went back to Sepchel.

"First I want to apologize for my brother's behaviour. I know he has offended you in some way, and as his elder brother I'm deeply sorry. I promise you that I will re-educate him, and teach him proper manners. Also I know that my subordinates did something unseemly as well, so I need to apologize in behalf of them since I'm their commander." Sepchel had bowed his head as he said his apology. Someone as proud as him had bowed his head twice in one day, and it was all because of his sh*tty brother.

Ren seeing this guy who looked so serious, reminded him of those human generals in his past life. So seeing him bow like this made Ren smile a bit.

Ren didn't know what kind of guy Sepchel was but if based solely on the way he carries himself, this person Sepchel was an exceptionally proud person.

'Proud, but at the same time cunning. Heh, this punk reminds me of that son of mine, who gave me the joy of a final battle.'

"I can see your sincerity, but what will you do if I don't want to forgive you? If apologizing was enough for such things, then this world would have been much more peaceful."

Sepchel who had his head bowed raised it and looked at Ren straight in his eyes.

"What is you want then?" The moment Sepchel asked this, the drinks and food arrived. Seeing the food spread before him, Ren who hasn't eaten a good meal for the past couple of days started stuffing himself with the meat.

Sepchel who was watching Ren thought that he had zero table manners. After stuffing himself with food, Ren spoke.

"Hey you should drink and eat as well, since you're the one paying for these." Hearing what Ren said, Sepchel shook his head.

"It's alright, eat as much as you want. I don't need to eat right now."

"Suit yourself."

...

After a few more minutes of eating, Ren stood up from his chair and was about to leave. Sepchel who was surprised by this sudden action Ren made, stood up as well and asked.

"Huh, is that it? Aren't you going to ask for something more?"

"No need, the actions of your brother was nothing more than the actions of a dog trying to bite more than it can chew. Those kinds of things mean nothing to me, it didn't even serve as a good warm up. His scheming was also sub-par, he wasn't even able to force Valdel into a corner much less me. Also your men didn't do anything wrong, your lieutenant was actually pretty good, since he was able to make me use two new techniques I just learned. So all in all the meal you just payed for, is good enough for me."

"I see." Sepchel once again sat down, feeling a bit relieved.

"Oh, another thing. I have forgiven you for now, but the next time you try and provoke me, be it your brother, yourself, or anyone from your family, expect no more mercy." When Ren said this, Sepchel felt an overwhelming force pushing him down. The other people in the pub, didn't seem to be affected, it was just him who could feel this suffocating pressure.

"If you don't mess with me, I won't bother you. That's all, I hope you remember my warning." Once he was done saying what he wanted to say, Ren released the pressure he was pouring onto Sepchel and left the establishment.

Sepchel who was left alone on the table sat there stunned. He didn't understand what had happened. What Ren used on him was neither killing intent, nor mana, it was something else entirely.

'What kind of monster have you provoked, you stupid brother... I need to warn father about him. Under no circumstances must we provoke Ren.' Sepchel who was reminded of the pressure that weighed him down, felt fearful. He was ready to fight to the death for his family, but facing Ren was not a fight, it was suicide. Once he calmed down Sepchel paid for the meal and left the pub.
