Reincarnated Hero System

"Duck!"

They were initially confused hearing him say that, but when their leader saw Evan's sword glowing golden, he instantly reacted and got his party members to duck just in time for Evan to launch his skill.

"Blade Cannon."

He swung his sword multiple times, releasing thick slashes of golden aura horizontally, with each slash launching five smaller fist-sized bullets of aura.

Screams of pain filled the room as the bullets and the slashes following them tore through the monsters' bodies, with a few not even getting a chance to scream as the aura bullets turned their heads to bloody pastes.

A water-type rift mage squealed and launched a flurry of water projectiles toward Evan, however, the young hero didn't even look at it, directly activating his elemental shield and setting the element to ice.

A thin light blue bubble of ice energy covered his body, releasing a frosty aura in the area that slowed the movements of the monsters that were lucky to survive his attacks.

One of the shorter goblins who was able to easily duck when Evan launched the blade cannon, tried to slash at Evan with its sword, only for the elemental aura to not only slow its movements, but even begin to freeze its sword arm.

Of course, the goblin's sword slash could not deal any major damage to the elemental shield either way, with Evan partially activating his paladin skill on his foot and kicking the goblin's head off its neck.

'If I use vortex, they'd be affected too.

I guess blade cannon, aura slash and energy blast are my best bets, huh?'

He calmly analysed the situation and rose his left hand, manipulating his energies as a red ball of condensed energy about 25cm wide appeared on his palm almost instantly.

'My skill activation time is shorter.'

He thought that as he launched the energy ball in his hand as a beam of red light shot through the air, burning through the monsters and consigning them to death.

"GRROOOOAAARR!!!"

One of the trolls who saw this roared in rage and charged toward Evan, with its large body making the ground tremble under its feet as it closed the distance almost instantly and punched down at the young hero.

However, before its punch could even reach Evan's shield-

"Don't hug all the fun to yourself."

**SWISH!!!

-the troll's arm was cleanly separated from its shoulder.

"ARRRGGHHH!!!"

"Noisy."

There was the sound of a blade slicing through meat and the head of the troll slowly rolled off its neck and down to the ground, its enormous body following immediately afterwards, crushing a few monsters due to its large weight.

Standing on top of Evan's elemental shield, was the culprit responsible for the troll's sudden death, the high demon Pride, who casually stomped on the shield she was standing on, unaffected by the frosty aura it was releasing.

"This shield is quite sturdy."

As she spoke, she waved her free arm, manifesting dozens of light green two-ringed magic circles mid-air.

Using these circles, she manifested multiple miniature vortexes of wind and elongated them to create needle-shaped spears.

"Piercing Needle."

Following her command, the spears shot out at a high speed, piercing the heads of the target monsters and ending their lives immediately.

While Evan and Pride were culling the monsters, the adventurer party who were the monsters' original target did not slack, activating their own skills and magic and unleashing them on the monsters.

In the process, Evan noticed a spell he liked among the spells used by the party's resident mage.

"Pride."

He called out to the demon who understood and jumped off his shield, into the swarm of monsters, hacking and slashing at Everything, with Amy occasionally burning a few to ashes to create more space for Pride to move around.

Evan then turned to check on Eliza but when he saw the battle priestess use her magic-infused staff to stab an orc in the heart, he concluded she was okay and deactivated his elemental shield.

Perhaps mistaking this as a sign of him running out of energy, the fire-type rift mages floating in the air squealed and launched torrents of flames toward him.

"Paladin."

Evan crouched lightly before kicking off the ground and dashing forwards, causing the spells of the rift mages to hit the empty ground.

While moving, he extended his left hand towards the floating rift mages and swung it upwards, activating an ice magic spell.

"Ice Fang."

A large icicle appeared from the ground and extended towards the rift mages in the air, striking the monsters in the way and crashing into the rift mages' elemental shields.

Some of the rift mages teleported away, with one appearing in front of Evan and launching a barrage of fireballs toward him.

'Blink.'

Evan decided to retaliate against the rift mage in a similar manner, teleporting to its back and activating another ice magic spell.

"Ice Slicer."

Spikes made of ice emerged from the ground underneath the rift mage and shot upwards towards the unsuspecting creature.

Before it could even react, the ice spike shattered its elemental shield and allowed Evan's second spell to hit it without obstruction.

"Ice Bolt."

A solidified bolt of ice appeared in front of the rift mage and impaled it in the chest, ending its life instantly.

Evan left the falling corpse and beelined towards the party that was having an easier time dealing with the monsters attacking them.

'Kuro.'

[On it.]

_{𝑓r𝘦𝘦𝘄eb𝒏𝙤vel.c𝙤𝙢}

The shadow spirit didn't need to be told twice as he understood his master's intentions and restrained all the monsters in Evan's path, allowing the young hero to easily reap their lives with his aura-coated sword.

**BOOOMM!!!

An explosion rang out in the background, making Evan turn momentarily and catch the sight of Pride spamming flame grenades on the ice-type rift mages that attacked her.

"KCHWEEKK!!" ｆ𝘳e𝒆w𝗲𝐛𝓃𝐨νel.cｏ𝘮

As he turned, one of the spider monsters made an incomprehensible sound and shot blobs of poison toward him, but the young hero activated his elemental shield and blocked the poison before encasing the spider in a block of ice.

'I need to learn how to partially activate this just like paladin.'

Those were his thoughts as he arrived in front of the adventurer party's mage and appraised her, before speaking to her.

"Nice to meet you, Miss Rhonda. Would you mind casting the lightning spell you just did again? The one that chained the lightning."

"Huh...?

How did you know my name?"
