Reincarnated Hero System

"However, by the time you caught up to him, he was already well into his attack on Osto, and you proceeded to join the fray and prevent more casualties from happening while killing a wyvern on the side.

That right?"

"...yes."

The guild master replied after a short pause, with Evan taking his time to analyse everything he heard from the man.

"So, you know that the reason why they wanted you guys dead was to eliminate anyone who would get in the way of the massacre that they had planned for this big sword-wielding guy over here to cause."

"Yes, we do.

I also know that he's behind 90% of the chaos that happened in the city while I was away."

Alok glared at Greed as he spoke, with the latter glaring back while rousing his demonic energy.

"Hold yourself, silly brother. You can't win against the man."

Pride spoke while knocking Greed's head, before gesturing to Evan and Alok to continue their conversation.

"You're a little late to discussing Greed's matter.

I've already had a meeting with the Viscount, the merchant guild leader and your vice guild master, and we agreed that letting it be known that Greed was the source of Terence's power would benefit no one."

Evan leaned back on his chair and ran a hand through his hair as he continued.

"Besides, Greed never took any direct action, except giving Terence power and having him gather a few riches.

The civilians don't know about him because of that, and their rage is all on Terence. And partly on me too cus I wrecked a part of the city fighting him, however, I took a few measures to reverse how they thought of me.

Helping to fight off the monsters too also seemed to have an intended positive effect, before you guys came in and wiped everything out.

As for Terence, it was agreed that he would be dealt with like any other criminal 'from' and 'in' Osto, and my party would have not any say in it."

Right after the boy was done speaking, Eliza who had been healing the injured adventurers with her skills, walked over while wiping off sweat from her brow.

"You guys done here?"

"Almost."

Evan replied to her as he fished out a face towel from his inventory and stood up to help her with that, before placing two magic potion bottles in her hands.

She was about to thank him, only for her eyes to widen in shock as she realised that the boy's body was currently in a horrible state, courtesy of him using limit break and blessing of destruction, taking her sweet time to berate him while using up her remaining two child of life skill charges left.

This also helped the mages guild leader answer the question of how Evan's magic power had not recovered, despite noticing the boy drink a few magic potions disguised as juice throughout their conversation.

Their discussion carried on with Evan bringing out a chair for Eliza, eventually broaching the topic of how everything from the existence of the artificial dungeon, to the monster attack on Osto, was also Greed's fault, but Evan spoke up in his defence, faster than the high demon could even defend himself.

"Don't fault Greed for that.

This guy has been inside the 'Tower of Avarice', longer than your country even existed.

If you want to blame anyone, then blame your ancestors for not properly researching what dungeon they were building a city around."

The boy's words caused the Viscount's brow to twitch slightly, with the Knight captain adopting a displeased expression.

"Are you saying that he's over 300 years old?"

"If that's how old Hobha is, then this guy is easily twice that."

Evan replied to the mage's guild master with a yawn, before continuing.

"These people knew about him and the fact that he was trapped inside the dungeon, and tried to get to him for their goals."

"They didn't just try, they succeeded, multiple times and they were very irritating to deal with.

The first time I told them to get big sis' answer first, then they came back and told me that Big sis was missing, and tried to get me under the pretext of 'looking for her'. "

All those who heard Greed's words, including Evan, had their eyes widen in surprise, with Alok turning to Pride and asking.

"You're his elder sister?"

"Yeah."

"So, you're also..."

"Older than your country? Yes."

Pride replied before going back to the book that she was reading, as if what was being discussed had no relation to her whatsoever.

"Oh yeah. Can you handle this for us?"

Evan pulled out the letter he received from Kasteblum's vice guild master and passed it to Alok before the man could question why Greed was trapped in the dungeon in the first place.

Upon seeing the adventurer's guild stamp on it, he collected the envelope and opened the seal with a special method before reading its contents.

"You're level 200?

Well...it makes sense, considering that you were able to kill that guy's companion."

He spoke while gesturing to Ulmoch on the ground, before getting the mages guild master to remove the silencing spell and calling one of the B-rank adventurers who was nearby.

Alok then sent him to get another B-rank adventurer, who possessed an appraisal skill, to come and confirm if the party members were truly Level 200.

"Huh? I'm not though.

I'm just 188."

Eliza remarked when she noticed that she was also a target for appraisal, with Evan revealing slight surprise upon hearing her level.

"Just a dozen more to get to 200.

Oh well, you can get those before we reach Bultom."

The adventurer who had the appraisal skill arrived and used her skill on Pride and Evan, confirming the two to be level 200, while showing slight surprise upon discovering Pride was the same race as the person who made the dungeon they just returned from.

Her jaw dropped in shock when she saw just how many skills Evan had, re-appraising him to make sure the number she saw was correct.

"You can see all my skills?"

".... n-no. Just the number of skills you have."

"I see. I guess my Full Appraisal is really in a league of its own."

Ignoring the surprised expression on the Alok's face, he asked her how many skills she could see, to confirm if she could see his mimicked skills too.

"T-twenty s-seven."

"Twenty what now?"
