Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 517 Craitid IV: Battle Start





Since his opponent was a powerful Epic-level existence, the mere thought of holding anything back did not even cross Evan's mind for a nanosecond.

His body moved so fast that he appeared to be a streak of gold light zig-zagging across the ground, creating sonic booms each time he changed directions.

Despite this, Craitid could still see each of his movements very clearly and knew where to launch his flaming projectiles.

He calculated the trajectories of Evan's movements and unleashed the Flame Spell, Aerial Mine in his movement path, forcing the hero to consume energy to blink out of the way before the massive explosions could engulf him.

While he was doing this, the Demonic Wyvern was silently chanting a spell, and by the time Evan had managed to close the distance between them, it was already done.

[Fire Magic: Flamebourne's Revenge.]

The gigantic three-ringed circle of white flames manifested right in front of the Wyvern and spat out a giant spear of white flames that pierced through the air with unmatched speed.

In response, Evan didn't hesitate to unleash his Unique Skill's ultimate technique, using up all the magic power in his body.

"Glacial Annihilation!"

The raw power of the element of ice was harnessed and a devastating wave of crimson-red icy destruction was unleashed.

The entire area was engulfed in a blizzard of swirling frost, the freezing winds and razor-sharp ice shards obliterating everything in its path.

Even the Epic Level Fake hero had to back out of the way as the sheer amount of energy Evan consumed to unleash this technique was enough to seriously injure an inferior Epic-level existence like him.

What's more, was that it ignored durability and directly attacked one's Health Values and Soul due to the essence of destruction infused within it, no way he was gonna let that hit him head-on.

The swirling vortex of crimson red frost and the white flames of the Demonic Wyvern clashed mid-air.

***KAAABBOOOOOMMMM!!!

The deafening sound of the erupting catastrophic explosion rang out, unleashing a tempest of white fire and crimson ice that engulfed half of what was left of the Giant Bear Woods.

And this was the result of the two attacks colliding mid-air.

One could only imagine the scene of devastation that would have played out if they had touched the ground.

The Adventurers and Knights of Shelde and Lastham who were planning to enter the forest were all blasted backwards by the explosion's resultant shockwaves.

The earth tremored all the way over to the faraway cities, causing earthquakes that would have collapsed buildings and a few other structures if it wasn't for their Governors' foresight in activating the cities' defensive barriers.

And despite this, the barriers suffered heavy damage and the S-rank adventurers maintaining them spat out blood due to the backlash.

"What on Aidos is happening today?!"

"The fuck kind of Monsters are fighting there?!"

The other S-rank adventurers who were in the initial response team from Lastham had their jaws drop in shock as they saw the collision of the two attacks and the devastation that followed.

"Change of Plans. Every adventurer B rank and Below, return to the city, now."

The beastman SS rank adventurer in the lead gave that order with a grim expression on his face, as he was the one person out of everyone here present who could understand the true level of the 'monsters' fighting.

'That Wyvern is an Epic Level Existence!'

Even though he ordered a retreat, a lot of the C rankers had suffered serious injuries after being hit by the shockwaves and aura that spread due to the attack, so it took a while for them to begin falling back.

Back at the main battlefield, Evan jumped through the smoke and spread out his aura, locating the Fake Hero and noticing his injured state.

But he could not rejoice as the main threat, Craitid, had only suffered light wounds from this explosion, and was still in a state to dish out attacks of a similar level with ease.

He created platforms of aura with his void steps as he moved, running up them like stairs ascending into the sky.

'Kayla!'

[On it!]

His contracted spirit responded as she activated her Pseudo Authority of Lightning and Spirit Raiment, before using body transformation right after; her target being the Monster bird they fought a few hours ago.

With a bright flash of light, Kayla transformed into a giant bird with golden feathers. Her two outstretched wings had a fifty-metre wingspan and intricate black patterns decorating them.

A fragmented third of a golden crown with multicoloured jewels manifested on her head, and the purple jewels on the crown lit up with a dull glow.

Her golden eyes flashed with an iridescent light and with a beat of her wings, she unleashed devastating gusts of wind and lightning that tore through the battlefield with a force that seemed to rend space itself.

Evan jumped atop her back and transferred his energy directly to her, consuming more of his stored-up experience in the process.

Kayla's beak yawned open and a four-ringed magic circle appeared, one that was exactly the same as the one Silverwing had used.

Seeing this Craitid didn't just float in the air and watch her. He responded by charging up a breath and less than five seconds later, another torrent of destructive energy, albeit weaker than the first, was released.

The lightning spirit also retaliated, activating her Fire-Lightning Breath skill and launching a high-velocity beam of the two elements mixed with a little spatial power.

**BOOM!!

Compression shockwaves spread out omnidirectionally as the sound barrier was shattered, the two beams traversing the distance between them in a mere second and colliding right after.

***KAAABOOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!!!

While another scene of devastation played out, Evan snapped his fingers and activated his Flux skill, sending dozens of volatile compressed energy orbs towards Craitid's massive visage.

At the same time, he used Everlasting Chains, generating massive golden chains stained with the essence of destruction's crimson red.

The chains slithered through the air at superhuman speeds, seeking to ensnare the giant Demonic Wyvern but Craitid was not so foolish as to let himself get captured by those chains.

Demonic energy coalesced around his claws and he swiped them, slicing apart the chains to countless fragments while he used magic barriers to block the dozens of exploding energy orbs.

Evan followed up with Elemental Weapon Projection, and instead of generating dozens of smaller weapons, he created one massive sword infused with Mesarthim's rainbow-coloured flames.

The boy crouched down and kicked off Kayla's back, shooting through the air in a streak of reddish gold light and arriving right beside Craitid's wing.

"HAAAA!!!!"

He bellowed out as he swung the sword downwards, intending on severing the Wyvern's left wing and grounding him, but he had sorely underestimated the reaction speed of an Epic Level existence with SS rank stats.

Craitid quickly folded his left wing and vertically spun his massive body around, coating his right claws with demonic energy and aura before taking a swipe at Evan.

Evan's time difference enabled him to react appropriately as he created a void step and made it slam into his hands, forcefully changing the trajectory of his swing to the direction of the incoming Wyvern Claw.

**BOOOOMMM!!!!!

Mesarthim's prismatic flames roared and engulfed the Demonic Wyvern's claw while the sinister blend of dark yellow demonic energy and aura mix crashed into Evan's body, sending him flying through the air.

The force of the blast was so great that Evan was knocked from one end of the Giant Bear Woods to another.

He soared through the air like a helpless ragdoll, crashing onto the ground before spinning and tumbling uncontrollably for hundreds of meters.

With each violent collision against the ground, his bones cracked and blood trickled out of his nostrils.

His trajectory carried him towards what was left of the forest's river, where he crashed with a resounding splash, his form submerged in the murky water.

In the aftermath of his chaotic descent, pain seared through his broken body, but the two Charged Healing buffs Eliza left on him activated and the restorative energies surged forth, knitting his broken bones.

This gave him the necessary vitality and ability to react to the incoming danger his skill warned him about.

He activated blink and teleported out of the river, just in time for the massive Wyvern's claw to swoop down and tear through the earth, gouging out a massive portion of the ground and the one tranquil river.

"Energy Blast! Everlasting Chains! Wave of Flames! Heavenly Ice Fang!"

Skills and magic were activated simultaneously as beams of reddish gold light seared through the air, crashing onto the wyvern's scales and shattering them partially.

What followed was the re-emergence of the gigantic golden chains that wrapped around the wyvern's legs and tail, holding it to the ground and draining its energy.

Then a torrent of rainbow-coloured flames surged forth, resembling a cascading inferno in motion. The prismatic flames roared and crackled with intensity as they devoured everything in their path, engulfing the body of the wyvern in a blaze of destructive beauty.
