Reincarnated Hero System

Chapter 656 Blank Checks with a Transcendent’s Name on them [Monthly Bonus 2]

?"Before I go to the GEE, I need to send word over there to them."

Evan spoke after he, Eliza, Kolvar, Dandeyr David, and the Deadly Sin Trio had settled in a room in the palace for further discussions.

The two Princesses had duties to attend to, and since Selah was Malaya's guard, she followed her. She had only tagged along to Grimsgil because Malaya was there, after all.

"If I sent a message in my capacity as the Count Bourne, it'd take some time before it actually gets to the Emperor.

But if I use a member of the Five as a liaison…"

As he spoke, Evan's gaze turned to Kolvar and the Beast King understood what the boy was hinting at. Evan was surely milking out as much of Kolvar's and the Beast Kingdom's power and Influence as he could.

"Fine."

"I'd very much like it to be a magic projection message, stored in a projection stone which we'd send to them.

Also, Kasteblum has launched its Waypoint Project, right? We can send it through that."

Right after Evan said this, Kolvar called someone to prepare the necessary tools while David questioned Evan's choice of transportation means between here and the GEE.

"We'd use Trains."

"Trains? Dude, you just spoke about Teleportation and yet you'd rather use a train to get to your destination?"

Certainly, David wondered why the boy would choose to use the more time-consuming means of transportation, but Evan only replied with a light shrug.

"I have certain points I want to visit along the way, to beef up my random artifact collection.

It'd be pretty cool for a random artifact I pick up to just so happen to have the power to help me out if I get caught in a bind, so I'm just gathering a lot of them to up those chances.

Anyway, the points where these artifacts are, aren't within the range of Waypoint Locations, but are close to Station Cities."

He also spoke about having to disguise himself while on said trains so people didn't recognize him and figured out that he was heading to the GEE.

If it got out that he was heading to the GEE, then Maude might guess he was heading there for her and run away somewhere else.

'She might even leave the continent…'

That'd make things a lot harder, so he didn't want people knowing he was going there.

"In that case, you can use one of my trains."

Since Evan was planning to take out one of the 'Demonic Hand' Executives, Kolvar had no problems offering his help to make the journey easier for Evan.

"Your trains?"

"It's a little private coach I had designed for incognito movements. I'd summon the staff in a bit for them to run checks on it and see if it's in good condition.

It's also faster than normal so your trips would be faster.

However, you'd still have to disguise yourselves when you're getting on and off the Train, but at the very least, you'd be free while you're on it.

Is that okay with you?"

"Okay with me? Do you even need to ask? You're offering us a whole train to ourselves, count me in!"

Evan's enthusiasm was very high after hearing this, and the boy decided to take advantage of this moment to gain a few benefits.

"In return, I'd give you one of these."

The Hero dipped his hand into his inventory, and when he brought it out, the expressions of all those present widened in surprise.

Even Kolvar dropped the glass he was holding, completely ignoring the sound of it shattering on the floor.

He could not be blamed when you considered the item Evan was holding.

It was a fist-sized crystal, coloured with a light green hue. Its main feature, however, was the sheer amount of Wind Law Energy that emanated from it.

Dandeyr was also shocked as he recognized the true nature of the crystal, and his shock increased when he heard Eliza's words.

"Hmm? Isn't that one of the World Law Crystals we got in Duscon?"

""One of?!""

Kolvar and Dandeyr echoed the same words when they noticed the girl's phrasing. Saying 'One Of', meant that there were other Crystals of the same nature with them.

"It's sad, right? Having a good Wind Affinity but no Wind Law comprehensions."

Evan knew Kolvar did not have the Wind Law Doctrine because he remembered it being stated in the game that he acquired it much later down the line.

"Just so you know, I'm only borrowing you this.

I'd need to use it when I reach Transcendence myself, but that's going to take a long time so I'd lend it to you in the meantime.

When I reach Transcendence, I'd collect it back."

'Let's hope I don't forget I gave it to him.'

Evan thought as he dropped the crystal into the hand of the dumbfounded Transcendent. Looking at the Crystal in his hand, Kolvar muttered a line under his breath.

"…I don't think a train is worth this much…"

It most definitely was not.

Evan knew this as well, evidenced by the way the corner of his lips curled up when he heard Kolvar's mutter.

'Bingo!'

"Yeah.

Let's just say it's payment for the help you've given me so far, and…advance payment for a few favours in the future.

What do you think?"

Kolvar turned to Evan with a narrowed gaze, instantly seeing through the boy's intentions and understanding why he brought out something he knew Kolvar clearly needed.

It was one of the requirements he needed to elevate himself from the Inferior Stage of Transcendence to the Intermediate, and so on.

"Yes, you have a few favours."

"Pleasure doing business with you."

Evan had an impish smile on his face, and seeing this, a part of Kolvar was genuinely worried about what Evan would ask in return for this.

Even more so, if he asked about the other crystals the boy had.

Right now, Evan had multiple blank checks with Kolvar's name signed on them, after all.

Leviah watched this whole scene with silence, before nodding to herself. She then turned towards Nadarus on the side and asked.

"You're still a drunkard, right?"

"…the fuck? When was I ever a drunkard?"

Nadarus was clearly dumbfounded at this sudden accusation, but Leviah only deadpanned him before beginning to call out the names of some planets they had been to in the past.

"Planet Bora U14, Ankone, Mipp-"

"You've made your point. What is it?"

"Come lead me to the nearest bar, I want a drink"

She got up from her seat as she spoke, but now, it was Nadarus' turn to give her a deadpan gaze.

"Woman, we're in a castle. You can get whatever drink you want here."

"But I'd have to drink in silence, wouldn't I? I very much prefer the rowdy atmosphere of a bar or a pub."

"…"

While Nadarus was considering dumping her in the nearest bar and making his way over to the casinos, Evan who overheard their talk chipped in.

"Mind taking her over to the Adventurers and Mercenaries Guilds to get her registered while you're at that? So she can have an 'Identity' and we can communicate through our guild cards."

"I'd speak to the Guild masters and have them start her at B rank for both Guilds."

David added that line after Evan spoke, and the fourteen-year-

old raised a brow in surprise when he heard this.

"That's possible? Are the Guild Headquarters gonna let that fly?"

"I'm the Prince of the most powerful nation on the Alpha Continent. They're gonna let it fly whether they want to or not."

"Damn, some Typical Arrogant Prince Mode…I like it!"

Evan's reply to David's declaration was met with the Beastman's confused gaze, but Evan certainly had zero intentions of continuing that topic.

Swinging his arm around David's neck, he changed the topic to something else.

"When I'm done with my message to the GEE, how about we do a little training spar?"

"Translation: You want to use me as a dummy to test out your new skills?"

"Wow, you read me like a book!"

"Dude, at least try to deny it…"

David sighed and facepalmed as he and Evan exited the room, leaving behind his father who was tightly clenching the Law Crystal while muttering something about getting back at the 'Elven Emperor' Zaos.
