Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 100 Manipulating Aura

?(100)Chaps ?

"Aura Slash."

Hearing the skill being called out, Sir Walsh looked up to see an airborne Evan slashing down multiple times in his direction.

**SWISHH! SWISHHH!! SWIISHHHH!!!!

Slashes of golden light poured down on the royal knight as he utilized a bladework technique coupled with his aura to fend off each one of the slashes.

"Hup!"

His eyes flashed as he twisted his body to the side and slashed towards his right, magic power flowing into his arm as he called out the name of a skill.

"Gnawing Frost!"

A frigid blast of pure ice poured out of his sword towards Evan who was swinging down a paladin enhanced blade in his direction.

Without even requiring a skill for it, Evan released a burst of flames from his body to shield himself from the cold ice that threatened to freeze his body.

Immediately afterwards, he infused lightning into the unforged and stabbed it towards the royal knight's head, forcing him to tilt his head to the side to avoid the lightning infused blade.

Evan back stepped to create distance between them as he stabbed his sword into the ground and clapped his hands together.

Upon opening them, a two ringed orange magic circle revealed itself in between his palms. Evan fought back the urge to reflexively call out the spell's name as he thrusted his right palm forward while holding the arm with his left.

**WHOOSHHH!!!!

From within the magic circle, flames poured out in a spiral motion, creating a tornado shaped blast of flames with enough intensity to incinerate anything in its part.

"Are you trying to start a forest fire?!"

Sir Walsh screamed out as he roused his magic power to coalesce the frost in the air and activate his unique skill.

"Frozen Waltz."

The skill summoned three sword shaped icicles that revolved around him. He hurriedly let go of his metal sword and grabbed one of the summoned ice swords, pouring in his magic power as he thrust it in the direction of the incoming spiral flames.

"Royal Knights Bladework: Fang."

As he called out, his hand moved at a speed that Evan could barely catch even with his enhanced vision.

**SHINKKK!!!! **PSHOOOO!!!!

The next moment, the sword in his hand transformed into a giant icicle and collided with the spiral shaped flames, resulting in an explosion of steam that impaired Evan's vision.

**SHINKK!!

Evan's tried to take a step back to escape the range of the skin scalding explosion of steam, but his outstretched arm suddenly felt cold and he realised he was unable to move.

Realising that Sir Walsh had frozen his arm, Evan did not hesitate to engulf his other hand in flames and slam his palm down on his frozen arm.

**PISHHHH!!!!

The ice melted rapidly but Evan did not have the time to wait for it to melt fully as two ice swords came flying at him from within the steam cloud in front of him.

He ducked to avoid the two blades before releasing a burst of lightning infused magic power to force the royal knight that followed the blades to take a step backwards.

Three more sword shaped icicles appeared around Sir Walsh, rotating at a speed that reminded Evan of a celling fan as the knight kicked off the ground and dashed towards Evan again.

Not having time to grab his weapon even though the ice on his hand had melted, Evan took a stance after coating his arms with magic power.

Sir Walsh paid it no mind as he slashed horizontally, making Evan bend his body backwards to avoid the aura coated slash.

Evan could feel the effects of the passive martial arts skill as his body sprang back upwards. He clenched his left fist and delivered a punch to the side of Sir Walsh's face with all his might.

"GFUH!!"

The force of Evan's punch coming from a fist enhanced by paladin and coated with magic power was enough to send Sir Walsh flying a few meters.

The royal knight re oriented himself mid air and landed back on the ground. He used his free left hand to rub the bruise on the side of his face before spitting out a broken tooth.

He was about to charge back at Evan but the young hero had already closed the distance.

Arriving in front of the dumbfounded knight, Evan spun around and delivered a backhand punch to the other side of Sir Walsh's face with his left hand.

Sir Walsh was sent flying once more and his back slammed into a nearby tree. Before he could catch his breath, Evan dashed towards him once more and sent a whip like high kick to the side of his head.

The royal knight rose his free right hand to block the kick before reattempting to grab Evan's leg but the young hero retracted his leg faster than expected and crouched down on the ground.

Before Sir Walsh could even comprehend why Evan did that, the boy sprang back upwards with his clenched fist landing on the knight's lower jaw.

Evan was about to take a step back when he suddenly realised something strange. The three floating swords that were rotating around Sir Walsh weren't there anymore.

His blood ran cold as his instincts screamed at him to dodge, however, it was already too late.

A gigantic ten meter long and five-meter-wide ice sword that was floating in the air, thrust towards him at a speed that he would have been unable to react to previously.

"Unforged!"

He cried out as the passive weapon control skill displayed its usefulness, summoning the sword he had left stabbed in the ground back into his hand.

As soon as the blade flew into his hand, Evan grabbed it tightly and roused his energy, deciding to utilize the most powerful attack skill at his disposal.

However, instead of magic power, a golden aura coalesced around the sword in his hand. Evan paid this no mind as he spun around and thrust his sword in the direction of the incoming ice sword.

"Vortex!"

He screamed out as the roaring spiral-shaped mass of aura collided with the gigantic ice sword, resulting in an explosion that shook the earth.

***BOOOOMMM!!!!

Evan, who lost his balance due to the trembling earth, tried to reorient himself only for the shockwaves released after words to send him flying through the collapsing trees.

"Argh!"

The young hero grunted in pain as his body crashed on the ground, the damage he received being minimized due to the paladin skill's improved defences.

He tried to stand up once more but then he felt a presence in front of him, he looked up to see a metal blade wielded by the royal knight he was facing, just inches away from his face.

"You're quite strong. But you lost."

Sir Walsh cracked his neck as he said this, before turning his gaze to the side.

**CLAP! CLAP! CLAP!!

Evan heard the clapping and turned to the direction the sound came from, his eyes widening as he was met with an absurd scene.

Pride could be seen seated atop the back of one of the royal knights that Sir Walsh left to face her, her expression being one of satisfaction as she studied the remnant traces of the golden aura left in the area.

The knight gritted his teeth in shame as he crawled on the ground, carrying Pride on his back while she nonchalantly flicked her fingers.

Sir Walsh frowned as he did not expect the five knights to be overpowered so easily. He looked to the side and saw Eliza holding her head while heaving a sigh of exasperation.

,m Perhaps feeling his gaze, she looked and spoke with a tired voice.

"The rest are all fine, I healed them up. Except, well...him..."

As she spoke, she gestured to the knight who was very obviously being forced to be a stool for a certain prideful demon who was filing her nails with her sword.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAH!!!!!"

Evan on the other hand, burst out into laughter, dropping his sword on the ground as he rolled on the floor while laughing.

All eyes turned to him but he continued laughing without a care in the world.

"HA!!

I half expected this but the outcome is even better than I thought."

The young hero stood up, not minding the blade that was inches away from his neck as he spoke.

"When she told me to face you and leave them to her, I wondered why she wanted to take the weaker ones for herself despite being stronger than I am.

But now I finally activated my aura, I think I understand why."

Evan picked up his sword and took a deep breath. A golden mist spread out from his body and was infused into the weapon, coating it in a thin layer of golden-coloured energy.

"So this is how it feels to be an aura user, huh?

I have to say, it is a lot less exhilarating than I had expected, but it is still okay."
