Chapter 108 - I got some things to do

After Silika entered the tattoo to recover, Leo who was using Ren's body felt something in the surrounding area. He closed his eyes and extended his Mana to the area near the city. When Leo found the source of this weird feeling he couldn't help but smile. A large amount of mana was used, and it was used to teleport someone nearby.

"You guys continue training, I'm just going somewhere, to deal with some things." Once he was done saying what he wanted to say, Leo didn't bother to listen to Lara and Hilda's replies as he coated himself with Spirit Aura.

'This body is just barely strong enough so that I can use the weakest version of my movement techniques. Let's see if it can actually handle it.' Leo after coating himself with Spirit Aura took a single step forward, and with that one step he was able to move a few hundred meters away.

Lara who has seen most of Ren's techniques was surprised to see him move that way. This was the first time she has ever seen him move like that. If he was able to travel that fast, then it would have taken Ren only a few hours to get to their village to the town of Grenton.

This made Lara question why Ren hasn't taught her and Valdel that movement technique. When she came to the only conclusion she think off, she bit her lower lip in frustration. It was a simple answer, it's because she was weak.

Lara then stood up and looked at Hilda. When Hilda looked into Lara's eyes she knew what the girl wanted from her. They once again took up arms and sparred with each other.

...

Leo who was dashing towards the area where he felt the surge of mana, was finally feeling the strain "lightning step" had on Ren's body. When Leo felt that the body could no longer handle the stress of the technique, Leo started running normally.

'Just how weak is this body? Is the cycle of death and reincarnation used by the original becoming weaker, or is it because we were finally able to damage the ORIGIN? Either way this might be a bit of problem later on... Heh, well whatever, I'm sure whatever comes Ren would be able to handle it.'

...

It took Leo a few minutes to finally get near the area where he felt the surge of mana. On the way there he spotted Valdel. Leo who was watching Ren's life every now and then, knew who this best friend of Ren was.

This was a person who shoulders a similar fate as he and all of Ren's other incarnations. Even though the weight of their burdens were different, he was still someone who shares the same journey.

"Hey Val, what are you doing here?" It was obvious to Leo that Valdel was the trigger for the teleportation, so going further wasn't needed.

When Valdel heard the familiar voice he looked at his side and was surprised to see Ren smiling while waving his hands. Valdel instinctively felt that there was something different about Ren, but he just couldn't understand what was different. So in the end Valdel didn't bother to figure out what was different, since this best friend of his has many secrets.

"As usual you have such great timing Ren." Valdel approached Ren while sighing.

"So why are you here?" Leo once again went straight to the point. Valdel then started to explain to Ren why he was out here. He started with telling Ren about the missing nobles, then he explained how he was ambushed while he was searching for said nobles. He then got to the part where he met an ancient hero who had dragon wings.

Valdel then told the message the ancient hero wanted to him to tell Ren. Even though Valdel couldn't understand how Ren was able meet the ancient hero, seeing as they've been together all their lives, he still wasn't that bothered by it. There were many things that were out of place when it came to Ren, but Valdel believed that someday Ren would tell him everything.

Valdel then proceeded to hand out the horn covered in cloth. When Leo got a hold of the horn he immediately knew what it was.

'This is something that could potentially make Ren a bit stronger.' Leo hid the horn without bothering to remove the cloth to look at it.

"Val, you better go back to your school. I'm sure the people you are looking for will show up a bit later." After saying that to Valdel, Leo proceeded to head towards the area Valdel pointed out where he was ambushed.

'If it were Ren he would have dealt with the enemies efficiently by killing all of them, but that's too boring. Instead I will make them fear me, then that would force them to sharpen their fangs. Once they feel that their fangs have sharpened enough they will once again come to bite my, no, Ren's neck off. At that time surely they would prove a challenge for my new incarnation, and with that challenge my incarnation will be able to become stronger than before.'

Even though he didn't show it on his face, nor did he think much about it. Leo was actually feeling a bit nervous. Ren was the weakest incarnation he has ever seen, and he was the fourth incarnation they had after defeating a main part of the ORIGIN.

Leo couldn't help but feel that something was going wrong.
