Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

Chapter 158 More Wealth and Treasures



Aldred looked at their corpses and wondered. “If I turn them to undead will their power return?”

“Only one way to find out.” He raised his hand. “Arise.”

The dark mist engulfed the two corpses, and then they stepped out of the mist before kneeling in front of him. Aldred scanned the both of them and was surprised that they returned to Gold Rank.

“So they return to their original strength when I turn them into undead. Interesting.”

Maverick hopped off Xer Xai and ran to Aldred. “Aldred, those sword moves were amazing. How did you do it?”

Maverick knew Aldred was talented in almost every field, but he never saw someone used a long sword so beautifully before.

“I don’t know.” Aldred looked at the sword, the red color on the blade, and the shining outline had long disappeared. “I think the blade is teaching me some skills. Guiding me on how to use it better.”

Suddenly, all the criminals that were killed got their souls sucked out of their body and entered the blade.

Aldred and Maverick widened their eyes.

“Did this weapon just suck out of their souls?” Aldred asked.

“‘I think it did.”

Aldred felt a profound aura from the sword, and the small light grew bigger after it consumed the souls.

So this sword could grow alongside me.

“What is the name of this sword?” Aldred asked.

“I don’t know. The seller never told me.”

“That’s good. I will give it a name. What about Soul Sucker?” .

“I don’t think that’s a good name.”

“What about PP Cutter?”

Aldred and Maverick turned around to see master Pepe standing beside them.

“Didn’t I tell you to vanish?”

Master Pepe giggled and vanished immediately.

Aldred sighed. “I need to discipline my undead.”

“Alright, what name should be suitable for you?” Aldred was deep in thought. After a moment, he thought of something good. “I got it. Your name will be–Soul Reaper.”

A powerful red energy burst out of the sword and entered Aldred’s mind. Suddenly, all the skills he executed earlier were played out again in his mind over and over again.

After a moment, he now understood the fighting style of this weapon. This weapon was specifically designed to kill something far stronger than the user.

The Foresight Slash for example can make him invulnerable for a short moment before counter attacking the enemy. And all the skills that were given to him could be combined with each other to create some sort of never ending combo to attack the enemy while still allowing him to move around.

This made the sword a weapon that let him have high-damage output, mid-mobility, and great reach.

Aldred sheathed his sword in a standing stance. His body glowed red, and suddenly he rushed forward, and drew his sword before slashing horizontally.

The tip of the blade created a powerful red trail.

If an enemy got hit by these red trail, their power would be significantly reduced.

Maverick stared with stars in his eyes. So this was true talent. Aldred only held the blade for an hour or so, but he already mastered on how to use it.

He had tried to use this long sword before, but it felt like the sword did not want to be used by him. It was too heavy, too long, and too hard to use.

Aldred on the other hand felt like he was at home when he put the blade in his hands. He was so comfortable with it that he might not transform it back into a stick and let it rest on his back.

There was some sort of bond with him and the blade.

“We will have a long adventure ahead of us, Soul Reaper.”

“I hope that sword can accompany you for a long time. The seller said that he found it in a dungeon.”

“It wasn’t made?”

“Well, he said it looks like it was made from the material of a powerful fire creature, but even he wasn’t sure about it. He only said that nobody could use it even though the blade seems to contain something powerful within it.”

‘Maybe it’s that spirit thing,’ Aldred thought to himself.

Aldred put the blade in the scabbard. Patting it softly like it was his friend. He then noticed a piece of map on the floor.

Furrowing his brows, Aldred took the map and saw it leads to many different continents. But it was incomplete. The map was also slightly weird. There were lines that lead from one continent to another drawn on the ocean, but the lines had to go through one continent before it could go to the other.

As if they had to visit this continent first before they could visit another one.

Aldred wondered why that was the case. Why not just go directly to the last continent? Maybe it was for resupply. After all, even in the modern world, ships still need to rest in one place to resupply before continuing their voyage.

“What map is this?” Aldred asked the undead twin.

“This is a map that can lead us to the main continent, master.”

“Main continent? I think Stella also said something like that.”

“Why do you even want to go to this place anyway?”

“Those who can set foot in this continent are said to rule many other smaller continents. The Wildlings Gang are amassing resources to prepare their journey towards this place. No amount of treasures and wealth will be enough. Anything and everything will be taken to increase their chance of success. The funds given by the nobles also helped our process of amassing wealth.”

“Funds? Who gave you that?”

“We do not know who it was. But the Wildlings Gang are now willing to do the dirty works of many wealthy lords. Apparently feuds between rich men are so beneficial for our economy.”

“But it’s misery and hell for the ordinary people.”

“It is. But the Wildlings Gang had never cared for them.”

“Right. Your motto is kill, ****, and conquer after all. It doesn’t say ‘for the people, by the people’ or stuff like that. Well, at least you guys are honest which makes it easier for me to kill you.”

“Tell me more about this main continent. Why do you need so much wealth?”

“The journey is long, master. It may take years or even decades just to find it. During the journey, the time to get to the main continent is the least of your worries. Everything will try to kill and stop you including pirates, creatures, and even the native settlers on the smaller continent.”

“How do you know all this?”

“The gang has sent people to investigate. This information is obtained through many lives.”

Aldred nodded. “Then I should amass more wealth and treasures. And maybe more undead or even armies in the future.”
