Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 655 Returning to Barthmont

As the group came out of the first spatial gate Kolvar created, Evan turned to the man and his son before speaking.

"So, I'd be counting on you guys to help out, you know?"

"What?"

When David questioned what he was on about, Evan gestured to a much calmer Leviah and spoke.

"She was trapped in a Dungeon for millennia. If she's going to have to go to Tarse, she'd need support.

I can handle the funding part of things, but we'd need someone to bring her up to speed on the current state of the Continent, the countries around and stuff like that."

"I extracted information from some of that Dungeon's challengers, and I even collected some maps so I'm not so ignorant of how things are."

Leviah chipped in after Evan spoke, dangling a map she pulled from her Inventory in front of him.

"Good, that means less work for me.

But there's still the part where you have zero idea about the current state of the Tensions between the Tribes in Tarse.

That's where we'd need David's family's information gatherers to come into the picture."

What Evan needed was information, since despite knowing who was an 'Enemy' and not from the game, he didn't know their current state at this time.

Tarse wasn't talked about much at this time during the game so he had zero idea of how things were now.

"I'd also need to explain what timings you are to move, the Dungeons I want you to clear—both for the sake of strengthening yourself and because of the elimination targets who reside there."

When he said 'Elimination Targets', everyone was reminded that Evan's contract with Leviah was basically him ordering a hit on multiple powerful beings in another country.

"These 'Fallen Celestial Deities', you mentioned. Are they-?"

"They are the same ones you know of."

Evan answered Kolvar's question before the man could even complete it, and when the Beast King asked exactly what it was they were doing that made Evan want to eliminate them.

"I've told you guys all I can say regarding the Demonic Hand's plan in Tarse, and from the fact that the Master of Dragondune is a Target, it's clear as day that their plans for Tarse are BIG.

Imagine if this lot who want to drain people for power happen to interfere when we already have our hands full with the Demonic Hand."

"I see."

"I'd eventually have to go there myself since there are some things that can only be handled by me, but to be honest, I'd like my presence there to NOT be known until after I'm done.

If the Demonic Hand finds out I'm in Tarse, things are gonna get ugly."

For the Demonic Hand, Evan suddenly appearing in a place where they had plans for was basically him telling them he was there to disrupt their plans.

To prevent this, they might decide to kickstart the Disaster immediately, without Evan even having the chance to go around and lay his groundwork.

In that case, despite not to the extent they want, the Death Toll would still be in the tens of millions.

But in the end, these were all worries for the future. He was only worrying about it this much because of the Scale of Events.

"If they succeed, one of the strongest countries on the continent would be wiped out and we'd be left with a giant 18 million km2 sized hole in the middle of the continent."

But once again, the 'Fall of the Desert Country' was a Disaster that needed time to prepare—years to be specific.

Evan also needed years to prepare, to grow his strength and influence to make things easier then.

The other Heroes also needed to get stronger so as not to hold each other back. David needed to be at the very least, an Inferior Stage Epic.

'But the Level 500 barrier is not one so easily broken…I have no idea how long it might take him to surpass that level…

The exp needed per level also increases exponentially after this…'

While Evan had a sure-fire way to surpass Level 500—The Cavern of Trials in the GEE—he wasn't sure if this was going to work the same way for David.

He made a mental note to give David a list of Dungeons.

"I'd need to do the same for Laurene too, so by the time I get back to GWE, she'd be much more powerful.

As for taking her to Tarse, the Emperor would definitely have a problem but if Sir Luke comes along, it'd be so much easier."

Evan refrained from talking much about Luke, for various reasons.

While the Sword Saint was a Legendary Level existence, his title was not 'Living Legend' but 'Veiled Legend'. This was because of the fact that he was a Legendary Level that was not known publicly.

And one of the reasons why Luke chose to hide his strength, was the man who was opening a spatial gate right in front of Evan.

'Kolvar and the other Transcendents definitely know Luke isn't a grandmaster, but they don't know he's a Legendary already.

I'd like to keep things that way until Tarse.

The Sword Saint's connections with other powerhouses of his generation—The Generation of the Previous GWE Emperor, the GEE's Empress Dowager, Gavin, and many others—the generation before Rathal and Finley's.

He also knows other Veiled Legends, some of which are even more powerful than he is. I can have Luke get them to come out from wherever they are to aid in Tarse.'

Evan thought this as he entered into another Spatial gate, before slapping his cheeks and speaking to himself.

"Tarse is for the future Evan, focus on the present—on how you're going to deal with Maude."

Turning to Leviah, he spoke.

"Your Targets are In the Continent's Centre, and we are Far South.

Our next destination is the Far East, and while we'd have normally gone straight to the GEE, we'd use an alternate route to cut through Tarse to drop you off there.

It'd be a few days delay but it's totally worth it."

The woman only nodded lightly, most of her focus being on the sights around her, those of the outside world she hadn't seen in centuries. Pride threw a side glance at Leviah, before turning to Evan and asking.

"The Tracker you placed on that woman, how precise is it?"

Pride had seen many Alpha Continental maps, as such, she knew just how big the GEE was. They were looking for one person, in an area of over 14 million km2; it was basically a fool's errand if they didn't have precise directions.

"Right now, all I can tell is that she's in the 'EAST'. But the closer I get, the higher the precision. If I enter the same city as she is, I'd be able to pinpoint her exact coordinates; X, Y, Z."

Evan replied to her while twirling around a 3-D light projection in his palm. The light of remembrance flashed through his eyes and he turned to the woman and spoke once more.

"Also, Pride, I'm going to-."

He suddenly stopped midway, not just his speech but his physical movements stopped as well.

"Should I still be calling you that? I said this earlier but 'Roselia' is honestly a much better name choice than 'Pride', so I'm actually considering switching."

Kolvar created another spatial gate and they entered into it, emerging on the other side with Evan still looking at her and waiting for her answer.

After a moment's pause, the High Demon heaved a light sigh.

'It honestly doesn't matter anymore.'

"All right, I permit you."

"Haha, permit! That's so very much like you."

Evan chuckled when he heard her answer, before swinging his hand over both hers and her brother's shoulders as he continued his earlier statements.

"So, for Roselia and Nadarus over here; I'd be needing you guys to handle the Demons of the Ninth Division members."

More than the contents of his statement, the Demon of Greed was much more concerned about the sudden name switch.

"Dude, you didn't ask for my permission?"

"Huh? Why should I do that?"

Seeing Evan's genuinely confused gaze as he replied, Greed—

Nadarus, felt his brows twitch repeatedly.

"What is this obvious difference in treatment?"

"Don't sweat the small stuff."

Evan casually waved him off, but before the man could say anything again, Evan continued with a little Trivia about Maude Gilatryd.

"She's a Member of the Blealand National Parliament, AND the COO of the Thunder Mining Group."

"…so?"

When Nadarus questioned how this information had anything to do with him, the young Hero grinned and raised his hand, rubbing his thumb over the tip of his index finger and middle finger.

"She's Filthy rich."

"Count me in."

There was zero hesitation in Nadarus' reply, after all, for the man, Wealth was also a Source of Power.

"Haha! I've already Counted you in."

Evan replied right before they entered the Final Spatial gate and re-emerged back in the Barthmont Palace.
