Chapter 152 - I cannot allow this
After talking to his past incarnations regarding some other things, Ren finally opened his eyes and saw Silika staring at him. It\'s been a while since he has seen her which made Ren smile a bit.
"Silika how are you?"
"Very well master now that I\'ve seen you." Ren couldn\'t see beyond the veil but he felt like Silika was smiling at him.
"I feel better seeing you as well... Hey, Silika, before I forget Leo told me to tell you something."
Silika was surprised to hear Leo\'s name come out of Ren\'s mouth. That surprise only lasted for a short while since Silika knew that Leo and Ren were basically the same person.
"Leo said that the promise can only be fulfilled if you put in the effort." When Silika heard those words she couldn\'t help but giggle.
"He\'s right if I don\'t make the effort that promise will never come to be." It was at that moment Silika finally removed her veil. Crimson pupils and pale white skin, her face look liked it was personally sculpted by the Gods themselves. After showing her face, Silika changed what she was wearing as well, he pure black outfit transformed into something else, it turned into a dress of red and black with a lot of curly frills on it, with matching brown boots.
Ren already assumed that Silika would be a beauty but he wasn\'t expecting something like this. Among all the women he has seen Silika might only be matched with the girl called Tsukiyomi that he saw in Edge\'s memories.
Seeing Silika\'s otherworldly beauty made Ren chuckle a bit. "As expected you truly were a beauty."
"So master, do you think I\'m worthy enough to be your woman?" If Ren was like Valdel at this point he would have said something like, "I\'m not Leo, we might share the same soul, but I am me, I am Ren." That\'s what Valdel would have said if he was in a similar situation, but Ren wasn\'t like that. None of the incarnations were like that. All of them were battle freaks that do whatever they want, whenever they want.
"What are you saying, the moment I took you from that shop, you were already my woman," Ren answered nonchalantly. Hearing Ren\'s answer made Silika smile ever gently.
\'No matter the incarnation, no matter the age, you still remain the same. You might not be the Leo I loved, but...\' While Silika was thinking about all these things, she and Ren were heading out of the city. It was time to head to the Marquis\' estate. When they left the south gate, Leo saw someone standing at the distance.
It was Nezzard, but something was different about him. Nezzard who always looked lazy and unmotivated stood before Ren with a weird pressure about him. Ren felt really excited, this tension, this feeling, it was obvious what\'s to come next.
"What do you want Nezzard?" Even in the face of Nezzard\'s overpowering presence, Ren remained as usual. As for Silika she simply stood behind Ren waiting for his orders.
"I have heard of everything you have done while I was asleep. I am grateful that you saved Grenton, I am also grateful that you found and saved the third prince. Even I didn\'t know the third prince became the bandit king."
"So is that it? Did you come here just to tell me how grateful you are?" The moment Ren asked that question Nezzard finally showed the massive amount of mana that lay hidden within his body. Ren was now truly getting really excited.
"I am grateful for everything that you have done, but what you\'re planning to do by tricking the third prince isn\'t acceptable."
"Hmph, what isn\'t acceptable? Everything that I\'m doing, is for the good of the people."
"What you\'re doing might look good now, but it will only lead to more deaths. The current nobles won\'t stand for an independent city, once they find out about what\'s happening here, they\'ll accuse the third prince of treason, and they will send an army to subjugate Grenton. You might be strong Ren, but I assure you the kingdom of Reschbeauch has a lot of hidden masters. If they come out you might be able to survive if you run, but everyone else including your companions will die. Are you alright with that?!"
After warning Ren, Nezzard felt he had convinced the young man to stop before it was too late. But instead of showing signs of giving up, Ren showed a vicious smile.
"Hidden masters! If that\'s true, then they should come and join the party! I will see if they\'ll be suitable dance partners for me to enjoy!"
Nezzard could feel Ren\'s thirst for battle growing, as the excitement of fighting such strong opponents tickled every fiber of Ren\'s being.
\'Tsk, this guy is really a madman! I don\'t have any other choice.\'
"Ren, will you really not stop?"
"Why should I stop? I\'m not doing anything wrong, nor am I forcing others to do this."
"I see... I may no longer be a noble, nor the general of Reschbeauch\'s army, but I am still the lion of Reschbeauch and today I will once again prove my loyalty to the crown, and the people! If you won\'t listen to reason, I will force you to listen!"
Nezzard then coated his finger with mana and pierced his left forearm, the right side of his neck, the left and right side of his chest, his abdomen, and finally his forehead. Once he was done piercing those areas of his body, a mechanical voice echoed, "the first seal released, the second seal released, the third seal released, the fourth seal released, the fifth seal released, the sixth seal released."
After the mechanical voice spoke, a rush of magic power started to gather beside Nezzard. Six being formed beside Nezzard and each of them spoke almost at the same time.
"You\'re finally awake Nezzy!"
"..."
"I can\'t believe you actually remember us after all this time."
"Hmph, so you finally decided to call me... Wait why did you bring out these other guys as well!"
"I see, we must be facing a formidable opponent for Nezzard to summon six of us at the same time."
"Let\'s just get this over with."
Nezzard summoned six of the seven spirit rulers.
