Reincarnated Hero System



The instant the glaive reached Abigail, the Elven girl only stretched out her hand coated in the crimson aura of destruction and blocked the lightning construct, inadvertently shattering it into two pieces.

"That kind of hurt. Not the attack though, just that you cut me off while I was speaking."

Abigail spoke as she flicked her arm lightly to get rid of the residual lightning sparks trying to penetrate her defences before looking up at Kethryllia with a smile.

Kethryllia stared back at her without a word, checking the aura pulse she had sent out to see if there was anyone else in the area for feedback but receiving none.

The two women looked at each other for nine seconds in silence. And then on the tenth…

**BOOMM!!!

They simultaneously kicked off the ground and dashed towards each other, their mid-point clash generating enough force to turn the ground beneath them to mush.

Kethryllia thrust out her lightning-coated spear while Abigail clenched her fist and condensed destruction essence around it before punching towards the incoming spear.

Fist and spear tip collided and the two energies exploded, sending a cloud of dust and dirt rising towards the clear blue skies.

The knockback from the explosion pushed the two of them backwards, and while Kethryllia was readying herself for her next attack, Abigail was more concerned about her clothes.

"Dad gave me this hoodie for my birthday last year.

Don't want it to get bad."

She started pulling off the hoodie, inadvertently covering her own vision, and there was no way Kethryllia would let such a chance go.

The Seventh Finger closed the distance between them in a single second, swinging her spear in an attempt to slash at where Abigail's neck was supposed to be, however-

**CLANGG!!!

Her Vanquisher spear rebounded off a transparent magic barrier, surprise flashing in the eyes of the demonic hand executive as her arm trembled heavily from the feedback.

Abigail finally removed her hoodie and tossed it into her inventory, revealing the similarly large black shirt she was wearing under as she spoke.

"Come on, you didn't expect me to actually start doing that without any protective measures now, did you?"

She took a spin-step forward and grabbed Kethryllia's spear, putting it over her shoulder and flinging both the spear and its wielder over using her body as leverage.

Nevertheless, the redhead who was tossed into the air flipped mid-air and created a small foothold of condensed aura at her feet, using it as a springboard to launch herself higher into the air.

Blood red aura and magic power flowed from her arm and into her spear as she held it up and pulled it back.

"Arc Lightning."

Kethryllia calmly called out as she launched the spear forward with her full might. The ambient magic power in the air around them froze as the spear turned into a beam of red light that shot through the air at breakneck speed.

Despite being in the face of this kind of attack, Abigail's light-hearted smile did not fade as she only looked stretched her right arm while she muttered to herself.

"Taking that on with bare hands would be a bad idea."

[No shit, Abby.]

In her outstretched arm, a pure black spear with dull grey runic carvings manifested. She grasped the weapon tightly and infused her destruction aura into it, lighting up the runes on it with a crimson glow.

'Perfect Accuracy.'

Without hesitation, she threw her spear towards the incoming mass of blood-red lightning.

**KAABOOOMM!!!

The two spear tips collided with each other, showing the effect of the spell Abigail had cast upon her weapon.

The two waves of crimson energy, red lightning and the essence of destruction collided with each other in a massive explosion that shook the entirety of the Dalburn Forest.

Shockwaves spread out omnidirectionally, uprooting trees, shattering rocks and turning the bodies of fleeing monsters into blood splatters on the ground.

At the source of this devastating explosion, a red-haired woman landed on the ground, before being knocked back a few metres by the shockwaves from the collision point.

Just when she finally managed to balance herself, her eyes widened ins shock and she suddenly turned around, infusing magic power into her arm to generate a two-ringed magic circle around her wrist and waving it upward.

'Multi-Earth Wall!'

The ground cracked open and half a dozen protective earthen walls rose up into the air, mere seconds before three arrows of crimson light pierced through the smoke and embedded themselves into the walls.

The arrows of light pierced through each wall, turning it into dust at the cost of a power reduction, but by the time they had managed to pierce the sixth wall, all the energy that constructed the arrows was used up and shattered into shards of light.

Kethryllia waved her hand to the side and used wind magic to blow away the smoke around her, revealing the appearance of her Elven opponent a few dozen metres away, holding up a black bow with runic carvings on it.

"That didn't turn out as expected."

She let go of the bow and allowed it to fall back into her inventory before dashing towards Kethryllia, who stretched out her right hand and called out.

"Pledge!"

The Vanquisher's pledge responded to her call, disappearing from the ground where it was embedded into with a burst of red smoke and reappearing into her outstretched hand.

As Kethryllia prepared herself for a spear thrust, Abigail kicked off the ground and into the air, raising two hands up with a grin on her face.

A large black great sword with dull grey runic carvings appeared in her open hands and she grasped onto its hilt, infusing it with destruction essence and lighting up the runes on the weapon.

"HAP!"

With a shout, she swung the great sword down onto the ground, the massive weapon slamming into the earth a moment after Kethryllia made the decision to dodge.

"Grand lance!"

Abigail called out the spell name, causing six spears of crimson stone to sprout from the ground around her and shoot towards Kethryllia.

'She can imbue her normal magic with the law's effects too?!'

Kethryllia questioned internally as she noted the crimson glow that surrounded the ordinary stone spears, flicking her left hand and creating six separate circles of red light around her.

A second later, red beams of lightning shot out and collided with the incoming earthen lances, shattering them to pieces.

'I used more energy than expected. Her crimson aura strengthens the spells' effects and makes them harder to destroy.'

Kethryllia flipped in the air and landed on the ground, slamming the butt of her spear onto the ground and shooting a bolt of lightning in the air.

Magic power coalesced in the skies and dark storm clouds appeared amidst the clear milky white clouds, a second before dozens of blood-red lightning bolts descended from the sky to strike the charging Abigail.

Abigail flipped her sword and used the flat side of the blade to block the first two bolts, redirecting the energy from the sword and towards the ground directly before muttering lightly.

"A great sword is too heavy for this."

She spun around and threw the great sword with all her might, right at the incoming lightning bolts.

The sword blasted through them as it ascended the skies, eventually piercing through the dark cloud they descended from and destroying the magic circle above it.

The Elven girl then summoned a pair of twin blades in her hands, coating them with her essence of destruction and using them to slice apart the bolts of lightning that dropped from the other dark clouds.

The thin layer of destructive essence coating her body prevented her from getting shocked by the residual sparks of lightning that snaked down her arm much to Kethryllia's displeasure.

Suddenly, the ground under Abigail's feet caved open and she lost her footing, falling directly into the sharp-toothed bear trap construct of earth.

"That's clearly not good."

She made such a comment as she manipulated her aura and gave it 'elastic' properties, using it to create a foothold which she springboarded off into the air.

However, just as she made her escape from the earthen jaws of death, Kethryllia blitzed right behind her and slashed with her spear coated in blood-red lightning.

Abigail spun around and used one sword to block the lightning projectile slash, before swinging the second one to block the actual spear that came right after.

**BAAMM!!

The Elven girl was sent flying towards the ground, but she flipped her body in the air and created an elastic aura foothold in the air to break her fall.

She then sprang off it and shot back towards the still airborne Kethryllia, showing no surprise at the red-haired woman's flight ability.

Her surprise, however, came from the fact that there was now a black spell circle of demonic energy around Kethryllia's wrist, something that wasn't there a few seconds ago.
