Demon Lord’s Reincarnation

Chapter 374 - One Problem After Another



Chapter 374 – One Problem After Another

As Nyarlom was about to face the numerous incarnations, he still continued to smile. ‘I guess even my wonderful surprise might be inadequate for someone of his level. Still, I hope it would at least bring a bit of chaos and grief in his heart.’

After waiting for a few minutes for some kind of reaction nothing happened to Ren, and the black dome that was covering Valdel and the others disappeared. The moment the black dome disappeared, Valdel and the others darted towards Ren.

“What the heck have you been doing Ren! Where have you’ve been your mother’s been worried about you! You need to go back to Grenton to meet your mother and erase her worries. You even left your little brother behind.”

“Master, that was an amazing battle, thank you for saving us.” 𝘣𝑒𝑑𝑛𝘰𝑣𝘦𝘭.𝘤𝑜𝑚

“So your real name was Ren, that’s so much better than Kretos. Well, now that out of the way let’s get to the point to want to say. I wanted to study the body of the Primordial Demon you were fighting, but you crushed him until nothing’s left. So instead of his body, how about you allow me to look at your body.” The moment those words left Henrietta’s mouth she felt a shiver down her spine. Henrietta quickly turned around while trying to create a mana barrier but it was too late.

She saw that her right eye was almost pierced by an arrow. If it continued onward her head would’ve been pierced and even if she survived her brain and right eye would have been permanently damaged. It was a good thing that Ren was fast enough to catch the arrow before it hit. Henrietta was surprised when she saw the one who had fired the arrow, it was none other than the stoic looking Lara.

‘Why is she trying to kill me? Have we met before, is she one of those guys that collaborated with me in my past research? Is she one of the daughters of the rotten old men that are trying to woo me? Perhaps she’s one of those women jealous of my beauty, but her looks aren’t too bad, not on my level but she is pretty.’ Henrietta tried to think of a reason as to why Lara attacked her. It was not uncommon for her to be attacked by jealous women that accuse her of stealing their lovers, but Lara didn’t seem to be like that.

“Lara, this person is Henrietta she’s one of my women, same as you.” When Lara and Henrietta heard what Ren said they were both shocked, but one was visibly shocked while the other remained expressionless.

‘So she really is a jealous woman accusing me of stealing her lover, but it turns out we’re both his lovers… I see, so it was true that Ren had other women, and this one is of a high caliber. Does that mean the others are the same as her?… They should be quite strong for Ren to take fancy to them. I can’t wait to meet the rest of Ren’s harem.’ Henrietta licked her lips thinking of the fun expe-, games she would have with the other women.

‘Yet another one and this one looks like a pervert! As expected I need to do something before Ren makes his harem the size of a kingdom. By that time it’s going to be hard… Maybe I should try to get pregnant, I’m already eighteen and this was the same age mom had me and sis. If I’m the first of Ren’s women to bear his child maybe I can secure the first place position.’

As everyone was asking Ren numerous questions, Tsukiko smiled as she watched the scene happening before her eyes. Seeing the expression on Ren’s face she knew that a lot of things have changed and it was not just his race.

‘Back then you stood alone in the midst of fallen corpses. Even with me by your side, I always knew that you were a lonely king. Yet now it’s different, many have gathered beside you not out of fear, but because of something different. I don’t know if it’s love, respect, or something else entirely, but I’m happy to see that you are no longer alone, that you are no longer the lonely king.’

While everyone was talking to Ren, Tsukiko suddenly had a bad feeling. ‘Still, that Primordial Demon looked like the cunning type. He might have acted like a crazed man but his words and actions were always full of lies. If it were me, I wouldn’t let it just end with my death. I would do something to ensure that I can get something out of what I’m doing even if I do die. So then what could he have done?’ Tsukiko pondered for a moment and then remembered something.

“Of course, I knew he had more tricks up his sleeve… Primordial Demons are the father of all monsters. They can create and control monsters.” When Ren and the others heard what Tsukiko said, the hope they had that everything was over was once again pushed aside.

“What do you mean?” Henrietta who was interested in this kind of topic was the first to ask the question.

“It’s just as I said, a Primordial Demon like Nyarlom has the ability to create monsters, or if there are already existing monsters that have low intelligence he could control those as well. I don’t know what the limitations a Primordial Demon has in creating and controlling monsters, but I find it very hard to believe that someone like Nyarlom who seems to be quite cunning to not have created a single monster. He had a lot of time to prepare, and he wanted to spread chaos everywhere so I find it really troubling that he did not use a single monster as he fought.”

“Yes, if he truly had such an ability he would’ve used it while fighting master. He could’ve created monsters to block my master’s path so that he had more time to escape.” Afeus chimed in the conversation.

“Running away wasn’t his true plan, since he wanted to possess Ren, but you do have a point. Why did he not use that ability? Maybe he couldn’t or is there something else at play here?” Henrietta started to think about the whole interaction with Nyarlom. Was someone like that really not going to use such useful abilities as monster creation and controlling monsters, when he had the chance? The answer to that was a, no.

“Maybe he had already used it and was waiting for the right moment. I don’t want to think about it, but he could have already created a bunch of monsters or he could have taken control of a group of already existing monsters and they’re hidden somewhere in this arena waiting for a signal.” Valdel told everyone his opinion.

While Ren and his group were having their serious conversation the citizens were doing their own thing and feeling relieved that everything was over, it was at that moment the ground suddenly started shaking. One of the mages felt that something was wrong and floated above. When he got to an elevated height that he could see the whole city, the mage saw something moving at a distance.

Ren and his group also felt that something was wrong. The shaking wasn’t stopping in fact it felt like it was growing stronger. It was at that moment Tsukiko spoke which caught everyone’s attention.

“So I was right…”

As if to make certain of Tsukiko’s claim one of the mages suddenly shouted.

“It’s an army of monsters! There’s an army of monsters from the northern forest heading towards here!”

“There’s also an army of monsters from the southern plains coming!”

“The monsters from the western mountain are all coming down, they’re heading here!”

After the news came one after another, the people started screaming and panicking while running in different directions.

“Ren, my group is going to stop the monsters coming from the west.” Before Ren could respond Valdel and his group had already left. Seeing Valdel’s fading silhouette made Ren sigh as he shrugged his shoulders.

“Henrietta since the Grand Mage and the royals are gone, who has the highest rank?” Ren asked while looking at the current situation.

“… It would seem that I’m the highest-ranking person alive.” When Ren heard Henrietta’s answer he couldn’t help but smile. It would seem that he was going to get something from all this.

“Then tell all the remaining soldiers and mages to guide the citizens to a secure place and defend that area. Lara can you-” As if knowing what Ren would say Lara grabbed his arm and shook her head.

“I see… Fine then, can you deal with the monsters coming from the South?” When Lara heard Ren’s command for a brief second her lips curled slightly upward. She then nodded her head and left.

“What about me master, what should I do?” Afeus looked at Ren with a little bit of anticipation and fear in his eyes.

“You should follow Henrietta and help her with guiding the citizens.”

“Alright master, but what about you?”

“Me? I’m going out to have a little fun…” Ren’s vicious smile grew wider as he walked towards the Northern wall.
