Chapter 458 Future ‘Disasters’ And Plans

Name:Reincarnated Hero System Author:


At least 100 of the 'Living Legends' on Aidos originated from these few countries. But this did not mean that there were no Living Legends from other countries, just that they were not up to the 100 mark.

Now then, as for the Countries with the tag of 'Major World Power'; they naturally met all the previously mentioned requirements, and had at least 100 Living Legends, along with an extra 10 Sovereign Level Existences having originated from them.

There was a huge number drop when comparing the Legendary and Sovereign levels, but it could not be helped as Aidos' Sovereigns did not exceed a thousand in number.

They were once more than a thousand, but a certain powerful human's rampage more than 2 decades ago wiped out nearly all the Sovereigns from a particular race, reducing the overall number below 1000.

For a planet with a population in the billions, this was an exceedingly small number, even when compared to the number of Legendary levels.

Anyway, the fact that the Great Western Empire (GWE) had the tag of 'Major World Power', meant that they, along with the Great Eastern Empire, (GEE), Desert Country of Tarse, the Elven Empire, Draidan, the Aelum Kingdom and so on, each had at least 100 Legendary and 10 Sovereign Level Existences originating from there.

However, because of the great power these existences had, along with the fact that not all of them were under their home country's control, meant that there were certain restrictions on them placed by 'The Five' in a bid to maintain a certain level of Order on Aidos.

This was the manner in which the Legendary and Sovereign level existences dictated the 'Major' powers of Aidos.

Scaling things up a bit, this could also apply on the Continental Scale and was part of the reason why the Alpha and Beta Continents were often seen as superior to the Dark Continent in recent times.

The reason was simple, the two continents had more Transcendent level existences originating from them.

Although the Dark Continent was the one that was hit with the full brunt of the Demons' Attacks during their invasion, a thousand years was more than enough time for the Survivors to get themselves back up, especially considering that was the continent where the majority of the Planet's Dragons lived.

That was also where the Dragon Empire, ruled by 'Dragon Lord' Altrishia, was situated.

So, on the Transcendent level of things, the Alpha Continent had Rathal and Kolvar, the Beta had Zaos and Vulwin, while the formerly Delta, currently Dark had only Altrishia.

However, Altrishia spent the majority of her time either on the Islands of the Divider Ocean or the Dread Ocean's Islands.

Although she did go back to the Dark Continent, she hardly stayed there because staying there meant she was going to inevitably come across the place where the former Dragon Lord, Gorm, fought his last battle against Greater Demon General McEnda IV.

"Former Dragon Lord Gorm…"

Evan's room door was opened as he was speaking, just in time for the entrant to hear the remaining part of his statement.

"…and McEnda IV."

"Hmm? Why are you talking about that abominable bastard's servant?"

The boy turned his head and his grey eyes met with the red eyes of the Demon of Pride who had entered into his room.

He tilted his head lightly and saw one of the maids who clearly looked dismayed on how to handle the high demon who just casually barged into his room like it was the most normal thing on Aidos.

'True…guests don't normally enter the rooms of Ducal Heirs like that…'

After waving his hand to dismiss the maid, he sat up on the bed and gave a reply to Pride's question.

"Nothing much. Just thought of something that guy did that's gonna give me trouble in the future."

"Huh? Didn't you say he and the previous Dragon Lord double-suicided?"

"Yeah, he did."

Evan got up from his bed and uncreased his clothes before looking back at Pride and concluding.

"And that's precisely the problem."

The High Demon was clearly very confused about what he meant but Evan just told her not to worry about it…for now.

"It's not important now.

What's important now is the next Disaster on the list.

If I was the leader of the Demonic Hand, after having one of my divisions wiped out by 'Strongest Human' Rathal, and suffering two consecutive catastrophic losses due to the intervention of a certain hero, I would definitely bring up my other plans that I have in stock and deploy them before anyone can catch on or interfere.

In order words, some of the 'Eight Disasters' are definitely going to happen earlier than planned.

Take the 'Lizard Lord's Outbreak' for example, that one is supposed to happen in about eight years or so."

Pride took a seat on one of the chairs in front of his room desk, leaning back and crossing her legs as she spoke.

"If I were them, I'd cut that time from eight to four. Even if it means things would not be 100%."

Evan took a seat on the other side of the desk and held up one of his pens, twirling it in his hands while he replied to her.

"That's what they would do…if they were the ones who had the choice."

"What do you mean?"

In response to the question asked by the high demon with narrowed eyes, Evan only smiled lightly and called out a certain date.

"April 12th. Year 1051."

He cleared out the desk before pulling out a large map of the Alpha Continent and placing it atop the desk.

"The goddess Artemisia made a descent to here…Dungeon City Lacertilia."

Dropping a coloured pin on the map, he continued.

"She placed a few things at the bottom of one of the Dungeons of Lacertilia, one that had a Maximum Level limit of 500.

She also triggered a Delayed Dungeon break on that same dungeon, in addition to halting the growth in strength of the boss monster on the Dungeon's deepest floor."

Evan pulled out another coloured pin and placed it on the map, on the symbol of the Dungeon that was drawn right next to Lacertilia's label.

"The name of that Dungeon is the 'Lair of the Lizard Lord'."

"Lizard Lord?"

"Yep.

And that brings us to the third Disaster…the 'Lizard Lord's Outbreak'."

When he was done speaking, Evan looked up at Pride and spoke with a serious tone.

"The Demonic Hand chose when they wanted to carry out the 'Dullahan Attack'.

This time, they would not be the ones to decide.

We're forcing them to carry out a Disaster of our choosing and at a time of our choice."

Hearing Evan's words, a small smile appeared on Pride's face as she found his words very appealing.

"We're not gonna play by their own game, huh?"

"Indeed.

It's not something that's gonna work always, but this time, it's definitely going to work."

The Eight disasters were;

The Dulhan Attack,

The Lizard Lord's Outbreak,

The Seven Deadly Sins Massacre,

The Wolf of the End,

Fall of the Desert Country,

The Basilisk's Stone Festival,

The Barbarian King's uprising, and lastly, the worst of them all;

The Ancient Demonic Dragon's Resurrection.

"Chronologically, the 'Dullahan Attack' was supposed to be first, then the 'Deadly Sins Massacre', after which the Demonic hand would turn their attention to the Beta Continent and have the 'Barbarian King's Uprising' happen.

But thanks to Artemisia, we can force them to keep their attention and their focus on the Alpha continent for now, by making the 'Lizard Lord's Outbreak' a disaster presided over by the 'Seventh and Ninth Fingers' to happen first."

"What about the others…which Executives of that Organization are handling the other Disasters?"

Evan pulled out a clean sheet of paper and wrote down the Demonic Hand Executives who were presiding over the Eight Disasters and passed it to Pride who skimmed through it.

"I see. This Lizard Disaster was supposed to be the Joint work of the Seventh, Ninth and Tenth Divisions, but the Tenth Division has been wiped out so it's only the Seventh and Ninth left."

"Yes…we should also consider the possibility of them sending in the now-free Sixth Division to assist the Seventh and Ninth.

The difficulty of things would increase if that's the case.

Seith Beddoe is an Epic Level existence, defeating him requires at least Peak Grandmaster, or another Epic Level.

As for Kethryllia, she may also be an Epic level, but she's weaker than Seith for sure…still, dealing with her is not going to be easy.

Especially because of her Weapon."

"And what is this weapon?"

The young hero used light magic to create projections of multiple weapons, two of which Pride recognized to be his Sword; the 'Unforged', and Eliza's staff, the 'Memoria'.

"Her weapon is the spear of the Vanquisher Series, the 'Pledge'.

And unlike Eliza and my weapons, it's on Phase 2."

"Phase 2? Your weapons have Second Phases?"
