Reincarnated Lord: I can upgrade everything!

Chapter 131  Old Enemies

Inside a beautiful courtyard, a handsome man clad in a silk robe that exposed a bit of his chest caressed the head of his mount, a royal Swiftwing with a calculative glint in his eyes. While his bird enjoyed his caressing, he was busy thinking of something else.

Tapk! Tapk!

"Countess Nephis, don't you think we have been silent for too long?" He said it without looking back. Should Asher see the beauty this man, Reuel Zaul, crown prince of Intis kingdom, spoke of, he would be frozen in shock.

The eyes.

The body shape.

The height.

That charming smile.

It was his fiancee, Lia! After she watched Asher get shot to death, it was as if the clouds were furious and there was a heavy lightning that struck the receiver, causing a huge current that electrocuted every living being in the building!

Such a thing had never happened before and it went on the international and local news platforms. She and Choi Kang spent 2 months in the hospital before they eventually died, only to find themselves in the world her ex created as a game.

Reuel before her was the Choi Kang and her body was also different but as a mage, skilled in the spells of fire and vast knowledge, she figured out a way to reconstruct her body, thereby transforming into the great beauty she once was.

It had been months since they reincarnated into the world and they had finally adjusted.

"I must ascend to the top once again. Honestly, I never thought that he would grant me a greater present upon death. I mean, what could be better than being a prince of such a unique kingdom, a kingdom with great military powers?"

Reuel snickered proudly.

Nephis chuckled. "We have information that none of them have. It's time we start making use of it before the wave of abyssal creatures he planned starts to spill from the north."

Reuel shrugged. "I'll conquer the north before then and build a great wall. Do not forget that the ruins of the old races are there and among those ruins is the gem of life that belonged to the elves. With it, we shall be immortal." Reuel's eyes were radiant, filled with lofty ambitions that seemed to be beyond the heavens.

Nephis eyes flickered. She was Countess Nephis Nyx, of House Nyx. A house that has always been led by female mages! Beside her were two huge white ice tigresses!

She was a vassal of the royal Intis family and a subordinate of Reuel, but because she rebuilt her body, Reuel recognized her immediately.

"Do you think he's also here?"

Reuel turned his head toward her. His brows furrowed. "There's a chance since he died in the same building, but he also might not be here since he wasn't struck by lightning." Reuel smiled.

"He was killed by my bullet."

"Forget about him. I think you should speak to your father about expanding. I want to be the first empress of the Intis Empire and not one of the queens of the Intis kingdom." Hearing Nephis' desire, Reuel chuckled. "As you wish, My Lady." They came close. He took her hand and kissed the back of it. ...….

Meanwhile, on the streets of the Imperial city, Asher could be seen clad in a brown hooded cloak with his BloodBlades. All three of them, after eating a meal at a restaurant, were heading for the teleportation channel. Asher recalled how Slyvia kept looking at him from the windows on his way out of the palace. There was something off about that beauty that made Ashe distance himself both mentally and physically.

How could she be so beautiful yet she had no profession, unlike her sister, refused to get married and yet had such aura that was out of the ordinary?

She had secrets; he could feel it.

"Your Lordship, are we returning to Nineveh?" Nero asked.

"We are." Nero smiled at his reply.

Asher turned to him. "Why did you ask?" "I've missed training for three days. I really want to return."

Asher and Alex chuckled. When they got to the teleportation channel, they waited until it was their turn, paid 10 copper coins each, and when all three of them got onto the platform, Asher saw different pinpoints but locked on the one that led to Nineveh.

This pinpoint was hidden and would only be revealed to him for now. If he should open it, some random fellows might pop into his dominions without his knowledge. Not long after, he found himself on the teleportation channel in Nineveh. When the bright light died down, three of them were revealed to the Desolate Slayers that manned the area. Thud! Thud! All 10 of them, valiant-looking, dropped to their knees. "We greet His Lordship!!!"

"Arise."

His deep voice fell into their ears. ...…..

Upon seeing Asher strolling toward the castle, the King Swordsmen were shocked to their bones. "It's his lordship!" Almost instantly, the gate was open and soldiers on horseback rushed out with extra horses. Asher was dumbstruck. He was the one that decided to walk since he wanted to have a feel of his stronghold after experiencing the magnificence of the imperial city.

But since his men were in a tough spot, he mounted the horse and rode into the castle. Outside the castle were Cynthia, Kelvin, and some other maids and servants.

"We greet His Lordship."

They bowed their heads.

Still on horseback, Asher looked at them with a smile. "Anything you couldn't handle while I was out?" "No, your Lordship, but with the aid of 1000 workers, Aquilia was able to build the grand teleportation formation in the stronghold. In a few days, she'll be done with the second one."

"That's good news."

"What about the troops?"

"The infantry are marching for Baron Tyre's domain and shall reach the outskirts in a few days. But Commander Eritrea has sent a letter, informing me that she had conquered two villages in House Scarlet's domain."

"Excellent."

"Sirius has conquered all the villages and the two towns and is waiting for the troops to head for House Scarlet's fort."

Everyone's jaws dropped.

Sirius had crushed House Scarlet in just four days! The might of the silent pet beast sank into everyone's minds, causing their faces to pale at the horror of Sirius's unmatchable strength, yet Asher wore a smile.
