Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 110 Heroes, Versus A Lone Demon

Pride rose her weapon into the air and blocked the incoming overhead slash, stretching her other hand behind her to create a barrier to block the incoming rock spears while exchanging blows with the swordsman in front of her.

She casually rose her foot from the hardened ground, sending a kick to the Swordsman's torso, and flicked her fingers to create an earth wall to block the water magic that came from behind once more.

**BOOMM!!

'Hmm...?'

Pride rose an eyebrow while standing inside the cloud of dust caused by the crumbled wall of earth.

She noticed one of the magicians touching the shoulders of two of the front guards before the wall of earth crumbled, slowing her to instantly figure out how the swordsman with the light blade got behind her in the first place.

'Some sort of teleportation skill?'

The two people the magician had tapped vanished from their spots and appeared on Pride's both sides, their swords glowing with the light of aura, signifying their grandmaster status as they slashed at barely perceptible speeds.

**SWISH!! SWOOSH!!

As Pride only had one blade in hand, she chose not to block the attacks, instead, she used a footwork technique to quickly back step and avoid their slashes, however, as if having anticipated it, someone from the opposite side came rushing at her with a golden spear imbued with an energy Pride found repulsive.

"HAAPP!!"

It looked like he had a speed skill as he closed the long distance between them in the blink of an eye and stabbed towards Pride with his glowing spear.

He had nerves to rush at her alone like that. But still—–

"Too Slow."

"Guaa!!"

Pride was way faster than that.

She dodged the spear thrust he made using all his power and rose her sword to slice his neck off instead.

However, a thin layer of white light appeared on his neck and deflected her blade, causing it to slide off from his neck to his shoulder and give him a light cut there.

"Don't rush alone! Front guards, attack her from all four sides without changing your formation! Rear guards, look for a good timing and cover for the front guards!!"

The attack force heard Webb's loud yell and braced themselves, executing his commands with utmost efficiency that surprised even Pride herself.

"Everyone, use all of your skills!! Don't hold back!"

The heroes activated their skills and surrounded him, one of them ignited a fire in his swords, another one grew huge muscles on his entire body while one of them had even transformed into a beast.

Each one activated their unique and racial skills as if they were at a skill exhibition.

"Let's go!!"

"Eat this!!"

The beastkin rushed at Pride from the lower side while the flame swordsman came for her from the upper side; both at the same time.

The flame sword hero swung horizontally and the beastkin hero who had entered his 'Beastmaster' form tried to tear her body with his claws.

It was a similar situation like earlier where the two swordsmen attacked her from both sides, if she dodged the one on top, she was going to end up receiving the attack from the lower side and if she did the opposite of that, then she was going to be met with a face full of flames.

However, to Pride, it was all futile. She felt that using her contempt of the many skill on them was a waste so she deactivated it, leaving her passives to work alone.

A second later, she changed her mind and decided to activate her Pride manipulation skill, deciding to slowly make the heroes lose contact with reality and overestimate themselves.

She coated her sword in black flames and rose it to clash with the flame sword that came from above while coating her other hand in demonic energy and grabbing the claws of the beast kin that came from below.

"What?!"

She exhibited strength that was far from what one would have expected from her slim arms as she forced both attackers backwards at once.

"You first."

She turned to the Beast kin and kicked off the ground, arriving in front of him almost instantly and ducking to avoid the aura coated claws he threw at her.

"Have some of this."

Pride delivered a palm strike to his defenseless torso, injecting a bit of demonic energy into his body in the process.

**BAMM!!

"Hap!"

Sadly, she could not inject enough to take him out of the fight as the ground cracked open and an axe-wielding dwarf emerged from within.

The dwarf swung his axe coated in thunder at her feet, causing her to jump up to avoid the slash, nevertheless, they had expected her to do that and had multiple archers launch elemental arrows of various types to her vitals.

Even while the arrows were still mid-flight, two more attackers dropped down from above, one of them being the celestial hero, Webb.

Pride coated her entire body with a thick layer of magic power while twisting her body mid-air to avoid the attacks of the two from above.

**BOOMMMM!!!!

The sword of Webb that missed its target, slammed on the ground and shattered the earth, however, he hurriedly let go of the weapon and jumped back just in time to avoid Pride's thrown sword.

He slammed his hands together and glared at the airborne demon who had revealed a pair of jet-black bat-like wings as he called out one word.

"Lightning."

The skies turned dark and a six-ringed magic circle could be seen from the gaps within the dark clouds.

Moments later, golden bolts struck down on Pride from above, each of them carrying enough power to instantly roast a high-ranked demon.

Pride frowned as she flapped her wings and moved to avoid the lightning but the bolts seemed to know their target and followed her.

**CRACKLLEE!!!

Without giving her time to rest, multiple elemental arrows came flying towards her mid air, with a few of the heroes taking to the skies with her to engage her in aerial combat and stall her long enough for the lighting to hit.

"Out of my way."

Pride spoke as she coated her sword with demonic energy and swung it at the airborne heroes, releasing a slash of black light that slammed into their bodies and sent them flying back onto the ground.

**BAMM!! BAAAAMMM!M!!!

Multiple heroes crashed on the ground simultaneously, releasing dust clouds that towered into the sky and creating craters that were hundreds of meters wide.

Meanwhile, Pride turned around and released the same slash of dark light towards the incoming lightning, not forgetting to keep her attention on the celestial who sent the lightning in the first place.

***BOOMMM!!!!

The slash of demonic energy and lightning collided, resulting in a giant explosion in the sky as the two attacks cancelled each other out.

"Raging tempest."

Pride decided to bring her own magic into the battle, activating a tier six spell with ease as the wind swirled around to generate half a dozen towering tornadoes of black wind.

She stretched her hands forward as the tornadoes spun around ferociously, occasionally shooting out blades of black wind indiscriminately as the heroes struggled to avoid them.

"Spiral flames."

Without giving them time to rest, she casted another spell as nearly two dozen five-ringed magic circles appeared around her, each of them facing the heroes as black flames came out in a spiral-shaped motion, creating tornado-shaped blasts of flames with enough heat to melt the surrounding cliffs.

"Thousand Blood Lightning!"

Webb shouted out as multiple magic arrays formed over Pride's head, each one amplifying the previous one until they were about a dozen in number.

Sadly, he was unable to launch the spell as Pride didn't hesitate to summon her weapon and slice through the magic arrays with a demonic energy-infused sword.

Suddenly, one of the heroes appeared in front of her and activated a skill as he screamed out.

"Take this!!"

He inhaled a large amount of air then suddenly sprouted fire from his mouth.

"That's impressive."

"Buho!!"

She readily avoided the flames he shot from his mouth and whispered in his ear before stabbing her sword in his abdomen.

The next moment, she infused a large amount of magic power into the blade and slashed sideways, effectively tearing through the hero's torso.

The Hero twisted his body while holding onto his belly and crumbled down to the ground silently as Pride looked at him in silence.

"Get from the way!!"

As soon as Pride heard that shout, a loud shadow was casted upon her and the cliffs in the distance behind her.

She looked up to see one of the heroes who was a descendant of the giant race, standing tall at over a thousand meters.

Before she could even comprehend when he got that big, she noticed that he was lifting something above his head with both his arms.

'That, might actually be dangerous.'

For the first time since the battle began, Pride began to have second thoughts about not going all out from the start.
