Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

Chapter 69 Ambush (2)

“You betrayed us!”

Bacon laughed. “You’re wrong. I planned for this to happen the moment I saw your ring.”

“My ring?” Aldred looked at his left hand.

“Yes, that ring. At first, I simply wanted to kill you and take the ring, but after seeing your ability, I changed my mind. You will be my slave, and whenever we kill a powerful monster, you will turn them into an undead which will work for us. But I’m not stupid. I will put something on your neck, so should you want to betray me, you’d be dead.”

Bacon looked at Bartrem and the others. “As for you, all of you can leave.”

“Really? You will let them go just like that?” Aldred asked.

“Sure. Leaving reality that is.”

“Fuck!” Aldred tensed up his muscles.

Bacon tightened his grip. “Don’t even think about summoning your undead, boy. I will snap your neck.”

Aldred smiled. “I don’t need to. Morph!”_-.

Suddenly, Aldred’s body swelled. His skin turned into black pristine scales, and his head turned into a cobra as his hands ballooned and claws grew.

Bacon stepped back a few times as he stared at the beast in front of him with widened eyes. “How is this possible?”

Aldred laughed in his giant velobra form, creating a monstrous sound that brought fear to everyone’s heart.

“Fuck! Kill them!” Bacon roared and his whole body glowed with a powerful aura.

The others were about to kill Bartrem and his comrades until something came out from the ground and grabbed their hands. It was the undead. Mary used that short moment to elbow her enemy in the face. Mareona did the same thing while Bartrem punched the enemy on the nose.

The fifteen Gold Rank enemies came, totaling their numbers at twenty Gold Rank. But Milet and Nicky stepped out of the black mist and fought them. Nicky was enough to handle a bunch of them. With his hard scale and powerful regeneration, the beast was akin to an unstoppable tank.

Aldred charged forward. The carriage snapped under his weight. Bacon wanted to escape, but Aldred was quick with his attack. His neck snapped forward and bit fiercely onto Bacon’s head. He went in deeper and swallowed the man whole.

“Ugh! Yuck! That tasted disgusting!”

The others seeing this were shocked. Bacon was a powerful Gold Rank just like them, yet he was eaten so easily.

“Kill that thing first!”

Nineteen men and women rushed at him and hit his face and bodies. His hard scale reduced the damage significantly, but Aldred still felt the pain.

One female magician pointed her staff at him. It glowed and shot out a dozen sharp icicles. The icicles veered in the air and slammed against his hard scales.

“Help him!” Bartrem rushed to his aid along with the others. Nicky and Milet leaped beside him and fought off the enemy.

Pongo ran around like usual with his classic baguette. But when he was about to attack, the Gold Rank enemies kicked him. He was sent flying into the distance.

“Damnit, Pongo! You useless piece of shit!”

Aldred slapped a man with his paw which returned him to factory setting immediately.

He spat acid to the side, hitting a female warrior with thick armor. The acid burned through the armor, creating a sizzling effect with steam. He then opened his mouth and activated a flame jet that blasted open the woman’s stomach.

He widened his mouth and breathed out dozens of fire arrows. He raised both of his paws. Fire bullets shot out like a machine gun, damaging their armor and dealing small wounds to the enemy.

Sophia raised her staff. “Confusion! Exhaust! Hemorrhage!”

The enemies were disoriented because of her debuff. Their stamina depleted at a rapid rate, while blood poured off their wound abnormally.

Sophia did not end with that. She buffed her allies. “Strengthening physique! Clear mind! Agile feet! Greater Stamina! Greater Defense! Greater Offense! Perseverance!”

Bartrem, Mary, Mareona, and the soldiers were strengthened. Every cell and every inch of their skin exuded great power. The undead was affected too, they fought fiercer than ever, rampaging against the enemy.

There were twelve enemies left. Aldred charged forward, his gigantic leg sped up, surprising the enemy ahead of him. His claw slashed the man diagonally, cutting his upper body. He then slammed his tail to the ground, crushing a man behind him, his armor crushed under the weight.

[+3,050 EXP]

[+3,100 EXP]

His godly eyes told him that all of them were Gold Rank, but they had been greatly weakened by Sophia. If not for that, this battle would be much harder. He realized that Sophia’s abilities were perfect for team battle situations.

Ten enemies left. The undead kept on swarming them. The Gold Ranks bandit gritted their teeth and attacked, but the undead were endless as they were relentless in their attacks. They gave no pause or break to the enemies which gave Milet and Nicky the chance to send a fatal strike.

“Fuck! We have to kill that boy! If he dies, the undead will disappear!”

Bacon had told them about the boy and prioritized him as the target. Their actual plan was to kill the boy and then kill the others, but the fat man was too greedy and wanted to enslave the boy. Alas, he was the first one to be killed.

“No! We have to run away! There’s no fucking way we can defeat them!”

They looked at the boy who was in his giant Velobra form, spitting out acid, fire jet, and fire javelins everywhere. Fear ran down their spine.

“You’re right. We cannot defeat them. Fuck! This is all because of Bacon. If that fat man killed the boy, this wouldn’t have happened.”

They leaped backward, out of the undead’s reach, and made a run up the mountain.

“They’re running away!” Bartrem shouted.

Aldred snorted. He leaped into the sky, and all of his four limbs shot out flame jets to lift him up. When he saw his targets. Aldred opened his mouth and rained fire javelins from above. Each javelin was three-meter long with the tip of the javelin in a bent shape making it easy to enter, but hard to pull. Not to mention the javelin was burning hot, and would only vanish if Aldred will it. So when the javelins stabbed through their back, they felt the searing pain on their flesh and muscles to be unbearable.

“Ahh! He got me!”

“Keep running! He will eat you if you don’t!”

“Fuck! I don’t want to be eaten!”

They sped up and entered the forest. Aldred did not bother to chase after them and landed beside Bartrem.

“How it goes?” He asked.

“They got away.”

Bartrem nodded. “It’s fine. We killed more than half their numbers. They won’t be disturbing us again. Aldred, turn them into your undead.”

Aldred laughed. “I will even without you asking.”

He went to the battlefield and turned them into his undead one by one, but then he realized something. When the enemies died, his undead destroyed their bodies under their relentless attack. This made it impossible to turn them into his undead.

In the end, he only got 3 Gold Rank undead.

Two of them were large warriors with a huge black axe, and the last one was a beautiful ice magician.

‘System, they looked awesome with black misty form and glowing purple lines, but can I change their appearance?’

[Yes. Users can choose from these options: Undead form, Real form, Crazed form]

Aldred smiled. ‘Tell me more.’
