Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son-Novel

Xer Xai roared and shot out a ball of purple energy that blasted the enemies to bits. She pounced forward and swiped everything with her claws.

“Keep firing!”

Dozens of these lightning-covered bolts shot towards Xer Xai. She opened her jaws and fired a large purple energy at them. When the energy passed through the bolts, they turned into mist and vanished before the energy slammed into the enemies.

They didn’t even have the chance to scream.

“This is the power of Xer Xai. Even if all the enemies were at Gold Rank, she could easily kill them all,” Maverick said. “Of course, you are an abnormality, Aldred.”

Aldred chuckled. “Killing this thing is not that easy.”

“If her power is unshackled, I don’t think anyone in this world would have a chance. To my knowledge, the weakest Xer Xai ever found could match and highly kill a Platinum Rank. So to see one in Gold Rank was almost impossible.”

“Well, the world shackled her power and used her as a test. I am lucky to have a pet like her. Look at her eating those bandits like they were snickers.”

“Snickers?”

“Some type of chocolate with nuts.”_-.

Maverick nodded.

30 warriors in thick armor ran towards them. They raised their spear and threw them. Aldred analyzed the trajectory of the spear, and determined that all of them would miss.

Less than a second later, the spears zipped past him. It wasn’t even close. But suddenly, the spears shot out strings from its handle and it wrapped around Xer Xai’s legs.

“Haha! The beast is tied. Kill it and those two who ride on it!”

Xer Xai moved her legs a little and the strings snapped.

Everyone was silent.

“Did they really think they could stop a Xer Xai with strings?” Maverick shook his head.

Aldred sighed. “Lay down your weapons and surrender. I won’t kill you. If you resist, then I have no choice.”

“The Wildlings Gang will never surrender. We kill, ****, and conquer!”

Xer Xai opened her mouth. Powerful purple light started shining in her throat. And then she shot a straight beam of purple energy that destroyed everything in its path.

The 30 warriors were nowhere to be seen.

Xer Xai ran deeper into the tunnel. A dozen gang members jumped out from the hole in the ceiling and landed on the beast. They brandished their weapons at Aldred.

“Stop this beast or we will kill you.”

Aldred stood up and transformed his stick into an upper rare grade sword. “There are 12 of you and one of me. I am bored waiting for the astrolabe to be activated, so I am going to have fun hunting you Wildlings Gang.”

“Humph! Arrogant! We will make sure to kill your families as well.”

The 12 bandits charged forward and Aldred blocked them with ease. Maverick wasn’t even standing as he calmly watched the show. He had full confidence in Aldred after traveling with him to Mount Fargon.

If these bandits knew what Aldred fought in that mountain, they wouldn’t even dare to look at his eyes.

One bandit stabbed his neck. Aldred smiled, and raised his left shoulder, knocking the sword into the air. With a single slash, the bandit’s head fell.

The bandits were shocked and backed away a few steps.

“What is this? You guys are scared now?” Aldred asked with a grin. “Only in front of harmless children and mothers you guys act so tough. In front of me, you act like cowards.”

Maverick blinked. He actually thought that the Wildlings members were brave. They even fought a Xer Xai without fear, but he didn’t say anything to Aldred.

The bandits gritted their teeth and fought him.

Aldred smiled. These gangs members had egos that they couldn’t control. When someone insulted them, they just couldn’t help but fight. Foolish.

He rushed towards them and dodged all of their attacks. Compared to that old man guardian on the mountain. Their attacks were too slow. Too slow that he yawned as he dodged a slash at his eyes.

Aldred spun. His blade slashed at the man’s waist. He rushed forward, pushing his blade into the man’s chest, penetrating his heart. Ducking down, dodging three swords that went for his neck, Aldred slashed in a wide arc.

“AHH! MY LEG!”

“YOU CUT MY LEG! YOU BASTARD!”

“You got lucky! He cut my balls!”

“How the fuck did that even happen?”

“Shut up!” Aldred shouted. He summoned his undead and told them to bring these bandits away.

The undead pulled them into the Divine Dimension and kept them there.

“Let’s keep moving forward,” Aldred said. “By the way, Xer Xai. Try not to kill too much. We want these criminals alive.”

“Yes, master.”

Xer Xai changed her energy beam into a non lethal one. Instead of disappearing into mist, their nerves to the limbs were killed, making them unable to move, but still could talk and think.

His undead army came out of the darkness and pulled these people away.

At the end of the tunnel, Aldred saw some sort of fortress with around 200 soldiers in thick armor standing in a formation in front of the thick steel gate. Atop the wall, large crossbows setup with long-bow archers drawing their arrows.

Two tall and bulky men stood atop the wall and stared at Aldred.

“Friend, we are Baldus and Arnott. The commander of this base. I am sure you don’t want to mess with the Wildlings Gang. Why don’t we stop the fighting here and make friends instead?”

The two bulky men had an identical appearance. To their clothes, and even to their weapons.

“Twins?” Aldred raised an eyebrow.

“I have heard of them. They are said to have great potential and always work together. They rose through the ranks, and now became a base commander.”

“A Gold Rank is enough to be a base commander?”

“Platinum Rank probably commanded multiple bases at once, and maybe they have their own secret base that we better not find or we will die.”

“Won’t they be scared of your status?”

“This gang is not like any others. They would never shy away from killing if they got the chance.”

Aldred laughed. “And they expect to make friends with us? Damn, these twins are good with words. I should have a little talk with them.”
