Demon Lord's Reincarnation 22 Sparring

Ren woke up early in the morning, the moment he awoke a female voice sounded in his head. "Hey Master who knew you were such a beast in bed."

When Ren heard this female voice he was shocked for about two seconds before he remembered what happened yesterday. He then looked to his right and saw a sleeping naked Lara. He slightly caressed her face and smiled. This little girl had devoted her entirety to him without question, to him she was irreplaceable.

Lara who was still sleeping responded to being touched, and she smiled. It was only when she was asleep that Lara able to express her emotions so freely. After seeing her smile Ren stood up and readied himself to do some training.

When he got out of the inn, he felt Valdel's presence at the inn's backyard. Ren headed to the back and he saw the hardworking friend of his swinging the new sword he got. The force of his swings were irrelevant but his stance was near perfection.

Ren found that the talent of all heroes to be shocking. They have a limited amount of time to be strong, and they get to their level in an extremely fast pace. All heroes no matter if they were weak in the eyes of Ren were all geniuses of battle.

"Hey how about we see how good our new weapons are?" When Ren asked this, Valdel stopped swinging the Zweihänder and looked at Ren.

"Oh...that's a good idea, we haven't had a good sparring session in two years I think. So were are we going to do it? We can't fight it out here since we might destroy the houses."

"Follow me I saw a good place where we can spar. I saw it before we got into town. We just have to jump over the walls walk a bit and will get there."

...

Ren, and Valdel who was following him left the town and headed to a secluded area, an open field.

"This place is good enough ready your weapon Valdel and come at me." Ren simply stood casually in one spot with no intention to get into any stance. Yet Valdel didn't take this as insult, since this was how his best friend fights.

Valdel readied the Zweihänder, while Zwei spoke in his head. "Master I haven't seen how your best friend fights, but I assume he's quite skilled."

"He's not just quite skilled, I haven't seen any other person that is as skilled as he."

"Well master I'm guessing you haven't met many other people yet."

"Yeah but I still think Ren would still be more skilled than them."

"Well I think together we can beat him."

"How about me?" Nika butted into their conversation.

"I will use you sometime later Nika for now let's go with Zwei."

Ren was getting impatient while waiting for Valdel who was currently talking to Zwei.

"Are you coming or what? I have not much time until the adventurer's test."

"Well you haven't even prepared your weapon yet, so I was waiting."

"I don't need it for now. I will use it after we ascertain your weapon's abilities. So just come at me already."

The moment Ren said those words, Valdel disappeared from his spot. It was like he teleported in front of Ren, and downward sword slash came without any warning. Seeing the incoming attack, Ren simply swayed his body to the right to evade the sword slash. Valdel then kept on attacking without pause, a downward slash, a sideward slash, piercing, and even kicking, but no matter which way he attacks Ren evaded everything within a paper thin margin.

"Master with your current abilities you wont be able to match Ren. So I will channel my own mana into you." Zwei fused her mana into Valdel's, which doubled his mana output. So when he used [boost] The sudden increase in speed caught Ren off guard.

"[earth wall]" Ren had no choice but to use a spell. A sudden wall of earth got in between Ren and Valdel. Yet Valdel sliced through the wall like it was nothing.

"[earth wall] [fire wall] [wind wall] [ice wall]" Ren used multiple spells in succession, while backing away from Valdel. He was using all the spells he can currently use that can block Valdel's path. Yet same as before Valdel was able to cut through everything.

"So that sword of yours can cancel out magic, is that it?" Ren was getting a bit excited.

"It seems so, Zwei can cancel and absorb magic to a certain extent. It all depends on-" Valdel didn't continue saying what he wanted to say. Zwei warned him not to tell Ren.

"No need to say anything Val. Having the weakness of your trump card known by another person isn't really a good thing. So you don't need to tell me anything. Still I guess it's my turn to use my weapon."

Ren's tattoo shone brightly and his weapon appeared in his arms.

"Here I come Val."

"Bring it on Ren."

...

After an intense few minutes the surrounding area was now filled with craters, and the nearby trees have been either sliced or blown away. Valdel was laying on the ground, his hands and body were bleeding a bit, but he was still alright. The only true problem was his energy was drained, and that he couldn't even stand at the moment.

Ren who was standing right beside him was still unscathed, but he looked at bit pale.

"I'm impressed master, you were able to use me to that extent, and didn't die." Silika spoke in Ren's mind.

"I already told you that I'm unlike all that came before me. Still that ability of yours was quite powerful, but it takes too much. I guess I'll just save that move as a my trump card. I'll only use that move if there is nothing else I can do. Well mastering that move, seems to be quite interesting as well." Ren was once again smiling his vicious looking smile.

"That move was cheating Ren! You're already a cheat, and now even your weapon's a cheat as well."

"A cheat? Me? Heh, Says the guy that has a weapon that can negate and absorb almost all magic." Ren rebuked him, which resulted with the best friends laughing heartily.
