Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Chapter 438 - The Beginning Of The Trial

Chapter 438 - The Beginning Of The Trial

When the elders heard Valdel's quick response they all had different reactions. Some of them thought that Valdel was crazy to accept such a challenge, others thought that he was impressive to have such guts, on the other hand, most of them thought he was being too arrogant. Yet the moment they saw the determination and contempt on his eyes they couldn't say anything.

"We can begin the trial tomorrow so that you-" The Chief wasn't able to finish what he was going to say as Valdel interrupted him.

"There's no need to wait, call for these supposed powerful warriors of your ten families. Unlike you mutts that don't move even though your kin are crying and hurting, I have no time to wait until tomorrow to play this game with you mutts, so I will do this trial now."

The elders and the warriors present didn't really like Valdel's overbearing style, unaware that this was unusual for him. If anyone who knew him saw this scene they would be dumbfounded. This kind of thing was usually something Ren would do, it was not something Valdel would've done, well until now.

"Are you sure?"

"Of course, it's just a bunch of mutts calling themselves wolves. I will show them what a true wolf looks like."

The elders couldn't help but growl at Valdel hearing that comment of his.

"I hope you do not regret your decision." One of the elders spoke.

"Hmph, the only thing I regret is that you mutts are actually my own descendants. The Lycan tribe might not have been a strong tribe compared to the other demon tribes, but we had pride and honor. The Lycan tribe would never leave kin behind and make so many excuses. If Katar were still alive, I would've beaten him up and disciplined him for producing such cowards."

"I don't care if you're going to act like our ancestor, but no one can insult Lord Katar!" One of the elders charged at Valdel. This time Valdel didn't use his mana to stop the elder. The elder thought that this was a chance and dashed even faster. He would attack before Valdel starts thinking about using his mana to suppress him. Yet the moment the elder got near Valdel he suddenly stopped.

No one was able to see it but Valdel's hand was now holding the elder's throat. He then emitted bloodlust, which made the tails of all the beastkin present stand in attention.

"I'm genuinely pissed now so call your warriors and start the trial. Do not test my patience for I'm already trying my hardest to suppress my urge of wanting to kill all of you pathetic mongrels." Valdel then looked at the elder with eyes that could make a grown man whimper in fear. The elder felt that death was coming and started to regret his impulsive move. Valdel then threw the elder to the side.

"Just call your warriors and let me see if they truly are worthy to be called warriors."

When the frightened beastkin heard what Valdel said, they wanted to respond by saying that this was a trial for him, not the other way around. Still, after feeling that frightening bloodlust they no longer spoke, they didn't even have the courage to growl. The nine elders quickly left the room and headed back to their place to call for their strongest warriors.

The elder that Valdel threw remained in his position not moving an inch. He was still in a state of shock.

"I told you to bring your strongest warrior, what are you doing there looking at me like that?" When the elder heard Vadlel's voice he snapped out of his dazed state. He quickly left the room not wanting to anger Valdel more than he already has.

…

Once all the elders disappeared the chief sighed. "Sir Valdel, please follow me to the backyard were we will conduct the trial." Valdel looked at the chief and nodded his head. As they were about to leave the room, the chief noticed the head warrior wasn't moving.

The head warrior like the elder that Valdel tossed aside was in a state of shock. At first, he thought that Valdel was only strong because of his weird mana, but that wasn't the case at all. That one move that Valdel did to capture the elder proved his strength. Not even he the head warrior was able to clearly follow those movements. He could somehow see bits and pieces, but if he was the one who faced Valdel he wouldn't be able to evade as well.

"Head Warrior?" When the head warrior heard the Chief's voice he looked at him still in a daze.

"We're about to head towards the backyard are you coming?"

"Oh… Yes, of course." The head warrior nodded his head as he answered and followed the Chief outside.

…

It only took half an hour before the elders returned with their strongest warriors. Upon arriving at the backyard the first thing the ten warriors did was look at the person who was causing trouble. Each elder had explained to their warriors that Vadlel was someone extremely dangerous, and he wanted to challenge the trial of the wolves. After hearing that explanation, the warriors wanted to see what kind of crazy person had come to initiate the trial of the wolves, but what they saw was even more surprising than what they thought. In front of them wasn't some powerful beastkin warrior, instead, it was a human.

Even though the beastkin warriors were still in a state of shock the Chief didn't' bother explaining to them what was going on and spoke in a voice loud enough for everyone present to hear him.

"We will now initiate the trial of the wolves. The Challenger Valdel please step up." Upon hearing his name Valdel walked forward.

"Please choose which warrior you wish to fight first." The ten warriors who were still somewhat confused were now all looking at Valdel waiting to hear who among them he will face first. Valdel looked at each beastkin warrior and responded.

"I don't need to face them one on one, I'll face all ten of them together."
