Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More!

Chapter 365

LizithThe face of the tavern that also served as an inn for Adventurers, only noticed that sound by pure coincidence.

It came from the first floor when she started coughing at night in her room on the second floor and poured water in the glass.

Since they ran an Adventurers inn, they had many Adventurers returning at nighttime. They needed to give duplicate keys to those Adventurers.

Normally, it was her fathers job to do it, but the source of that sound seemed to have erased its presence now, so he had not noticed them.

She wondered whether to wake her father up for a moment, but in the end, purely by a whim, she decided to check it on her own.

This was an Adventurers inn. Even if some robber had snuck in, one scream from her would be enough to get them immediately arrested.

She could not deny that she had such carefree thoughts somewhere in her mind.

As she headed to the first floor with a lantern in hand, she discovered someone crouched at the door. They looked like a young man, and one that Lizith knew.

Kufar!?

Ah, is that you Lizith Did I wake you up?

Who cares about that! Whats wrong, are you injured?

No, Im just tired, so dont worry. That aside, are Egan and Uno here? I have an urgent report to make.

Both of them are in the second floors room.

Can you call them for me? Wait, Ill go there myself. Its work-related, after all.

Lizith put the lamp on the table and was about to rush to his side and lend him a shoulder, but Kufars yell stopped her.

This was not because his condition was as perfect as he said. Rather, because it was so bad, he did not feel confident in maintaining his human form.

If someone touched him now, the shape of Kufar could get disrupted and break down. He was exhausted to that point.

W-Why

I Because Im dirty. And also You get it, right?

I dont. But okay. You Adventurers are like that.

Adventurers tended to possess things they could not reveal to others. Lizith assumed Kufar also had a similar situation now.

Naturally, Kufar simply made her think that way intentionally, but it could be said that that saved her life in the process.

After all, had his identity gotten revealed, Kufar would have mercilessly killed her.

Then Ill go and give them a notice. Ah, you can drink water if you want, so just rest for a bit, okay?

Yeah, Ill do that. Sorry for all this.

What are you saying? You are our customer, Kufar. I can offer you this much as a freebie.

The first floor was diner-cum-tavern, so each table had water jugs on it. They replaced the water every morning, but some of them still had water remaining at night. Normally, it was only for the guests to drink, but she worried for Kufars health and offered it now.

Thus, after taking a short break, Kufar headed to his comrades room. Lizith seemed a little concerned, but she was a girl serving at the tavern where the Adventurers gathered. She was sensible enough to not delve too deep into it and walked away without asking anything.

Hey, sorry for showing up so late.

Thats fine But whats wrong? Your movements look crude.

I had a bit of a blunder. I dont feel so good.

Did you get injured? Its unusual for you to make a blunder.

They joked about it, but they still found his words unexpected.

Kufar fundamentally acted carefully. He made sure to stay away from the front stage as much as he could and conducted secret maneuvers.

The fact that he failed and even suffered a wound was a shocking event.

Well, the enemy was who he was.

You went to keep Raum in check, right? So I guess the Six Heros made their move?

Yeah, and the most unexpected one out of them.

Since you say unexpected, it wasnt Maxwell or Cortina I assume? Did Lyell or Gadius show up?

No, someone even more unexpected. Reid turned out to be alive.

Reid the Assassin. In a way, he was the person they had to be the most vigilant of. However, Reid should have died twenty-two years ago.

That was a fact widespread throughout the entire world, and there were also many who had seen his corpse. As a matter of fact, no one had seen him in these twenty-two years.

So him appearing so suddenly was shocking.

No, that cant be. Everyone knows Reid is dead. Something like, hes been alive all along is impossible after so long!

Yeah, you are quite right.

Then

It was probably Reincarnation. He was strangely desperate to avoid getting hit by my Jamming spell.

Did he use the Illusion spell to take on his former appearance?

Thats not it either. There was no awkwardness in his movements at all. So most likely, it was Polymorph.

I see. You should be able to tell that well. Still, an Assassin that can use Polymorph is no laughing matter, you know?

One of the menEgan, knitted his brows at Kufars words, who seemed to have fought Reid head-on.

If that Reid with his assassination techniques had magic to top it off, they could not even imagine being a match for him. In some sense, his existence was even more threatening than Lyells.

Yeah, he cant be left alone. We Have to eliminate him with maximum priority.

Yeah, I am of the same opinion. But since hes transformed, whats his real form?

I would not be having so much trouble if I knew that. Its unknown so far. However, it should be certain that he lives in Raum, and that he arrived there recently.

When it came to master assassins, their assassinations looked like accidents rather than man-made. So in that sense, Reid being a third rate as an assassin was not a wrong claim.

But in this case, Reid had enough power and achievements to overturn all that.

Yeah. Still, Reids skill in bloodshed is not to be underestimated for sure.

So someone like thats staying in Raum, huh?

Until we know our enemys identity, it might be better to stay away from Raum. In exchange, lets replenish our combat potential. How is the summoning going?

We managed to summon one vanguard-class, one warrior-class, and four small fries too. As for the summoners, we got two more of them.

Hmm In that case, give me one of the vanguard-class.

What do you plan to do with it?

Its a waste, but I will use it as a nourishment

Sacrificing a Devil to a Devil? Ive never heard of such a thing.

Thats the thing. Its a closely-guarded secret.

Kufar smirked in response. That smile made shivers run down the two mens spines. The two shivered and didnt say anything unnecessary, and their night talk came to an end.
