Demon Lord's Reincarnation

\'The stance he did could be considered a coincidence, but that technique he used on me was obviously Fangs of the Wolf. So he\'s either an exiled person from the clan or he knows a traitor of the clan.\'

"Oh, did I forget to introduce myself? Well, alright then, I\'m Ren just Ren."

"How are you related to the Tranor clan?"

"You have a lot of questions, is this battle or an interview? Anyway, I\'m not obligated to answer any of your questions." Ren placed one of the short swords on his shoulders and pointed the other one at Richard with a smile on his face.

"Fine, if you won\'t speak then I\'ll force it out of you!"

Richard\'s demeanor changed as his momentum kept on rising. Richard pointed his two short swords forward and the image of a green dragon enveloped him. The image of the green dragon roared it was as if it truly was a dragon. Richard then charged at Ren the green dragon\'s mouth was wide open it was like a dragon wanted to devour Ren.

Seeing this scene Ren couldn\'t help but chuckle. In response, Ren did the exact same move but the quality of the technique was obviously different. Richard\'s dragon was green but Ren\'s dragon was black no it looked like the scales of the dragon were the night sky filled with stars, and the eyes of the dragon were the blazing sun. There was also the matter of size, Richard\'s Charging Dragon was the size of a large hill while Ren\'s was two times more than that, it looked like an adult charging at a young dragon.

\'He even knows Charging Dragon!!!\'

Seeing the scene in front of him made Richard feel even more surprised. If a while ago was just speculation he was now sure that Ren knew the secret techniques of the Tranor clan. Even though it was obvious that he would lose in this collision between the two techniques, Richard could not stop or back down. Instead of stopping like a coward as a proud member of the Tranor Clan, he was not going to back down and kept on charging forward.

The two dragons collided and as expected Ren\'s Charging Dragon devoured Richard\'s own Charging Dragon. Richard who was already bleeding from the previous Fangs of the Wolf had acquired a few more bruises on his body. Ren had held back the power of the attack if he fully unleashed it, Richard would have become a shredded person.

Richard who staggered back a bit did not fall and roared as he tossed one of his short swords upward, Ren did the same thing. Once in the air, the short swords filled with Qi burst with sword light and quickly darted toward each other\'s opponent.  Richard and Ren also charged forward with their remaining short sword and shouted the name of the technique in sync.

"STAR FALL!"

The short sword in the hands of the two extended with Qi and became a sword of pure white light. The sword that was falling towards them was a distraction while the sword at hand was the true killer move. The two moved at the exact same time but only Richard was hurt and Ren was able to block the strike by raising his hand stopping Richard mid-swing.

Richard and Ren once again took some distance from each other. Unlike at the beginning of the battle, only Richard was full of injuries while Ren remained unscathed.

"So do you still want to continue our little chat?"

"WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!"

Richard suddenly laughed crazily as his aura once again erupted with strength like never before. This was one of the unique innate abilities some of Leonard\'s descendants inherited from him. Only a select few descendants were able to inherit this powerful ability of Leonard Tranor, the more excited for battle the more strength one could unleash. The upper limit of this ability was unknown, but it was a weaker version of the Strongest Mortal Soul\'s will to fight.

Richard no longer cared about Ren\'s identity every single chaotic thought in his mind disappeared and the only thing left was the battle happening in front of him. Richard inhaled and exhaled slowly, the breath of Qi could be felt circulating within him in a weird way. Richard loosened his body and his spirit as if he was breaking free from the hidden shackles within his very self.

Looking at what was happening in front of him Ren could not help but smile that vicious smile of his. It seems that this descendant was able to inherit a very incredible ability. Richard disappeared from Ren\'s sight, this skill would be able to fool others but not Ren.

Ren quickly lifted one of his swords above his head as Richard suddenly appeared there, Ren then quickly placed his other sword behind him as Richard disappeared and reappeared behind him. This flow continued for a while, Richard disappeared and reappeared from different angles trying to find Ren\'s blindspot, unfortunately for him, Ren did not have such a thing.

Still, Richard did not stop, slashing, piercing, and even pounding with his swords. Ren calmly took them all, right now he was using another technique from the Tranor Clan, Falling Leaves. This technique was one of the rare defensive techniques created by Leonard Tranor. As a firm believer of the best defense is a good offense Leonard almost never created any defensive moves, but once in a blue moon, he would accidentally create one.

Falling Leaves was created by Leonard when he was meditating under a large tree. Many of the leaves of the tree were falling down at a fast pace. The number of leaves that fell at a time was in the hundreds that\'s how large the tree was. Sensing the falling leaves Leonard was distracted so he decided to cut down each leaf and to make things a little bit more interesting he did it without moving from his spot while his eyes were closed.

At first, Leonard was unable to cut down all the leaves as some of them as his senses could not detect each falling leaf. So as he continued, his senses increased in sensitivity and the moment anything came close to a fifty-meter radius Leonard was able to slice it without moving or looking.

Ren did not need to train his senses to such an extreme to use Falling Leaves, since, unlike Leonard who fully focused on physical skills, Ren is able to use mana sensing. Leonard was a pure physical fighter, who despite learning spells later never used them. He only learned them so that he could better react to opponents who used spells. On the other hand, Ren used everything he could to win battles, so his fighting style was a mix of spells and physical skills.

...

Richard used all the techniques he knew but was unable to get past Ren\'s Falling Leaves, in the end, he lost. For the first time in his entire life, Richard had lost a battle and instead of feeling dejected, he felt delighted. Seeing the smile on his descendant\'s face, Ren was also smiling.

"I lost... Still, I\'m really curious. You don\'t have to answer, but are you from the Tranor Clan?" Richard who was on the ground looked up at Ren\'s smiling face as he asked this question.

"Well, I guess I can tell you a little bit. After you rested for a while let\'s go somewhere to eat while we chat."
