Reincarnated Lord: I can upgrade everything!

Loyalty, this seemingly well-known term in Boundless, was a severe sense of commitment and dedication from a servant to a lord but there comes a certain point where even a god is impressed.

Alex’s loyalty had reached that point. It had transcended a point where he had completely let go of everything, including the honor of his service and in return, he gained what countless spirits and mortals yearn for.

Becoming an immortal!

Crackle!

After flying right through Kirin, Alex hovered, looking at the charred corpse that couldn’t be recognised as the great black mane general.

His celestial presence was fleeting as he kept ascending. His eyes remained on Asher’s until he vanished into the starry sky, leaving Asher with nothing but a stunning status panel.

[Name: Shomer M’el (Guardian from God)

Age: ???

Rank: ???

Talent: ???

Loyalty: 100 (+1!)

Job: ???]

A little smile appeared on Asher’s face. “What a spectacular way to escape this infested world.” He spat, feeling glad that Alex would no longer be stuck in the spirit world alone and also a bit sad that a friend was gone.

Maybe one day, they would meet again but for now, all he could say was…

“Thank you.”

While saying that, Asher looked at the thousands of beasts, Shomer M’el, whose mortal name is Alex had slain.

All three evil generals were dead, and the generals of the White Lotus were greatly injured but in exchange, they slew thousands, reducing Belial’s army greatly.

Asher looked at Ithamar with great respect in his eyes. He was a Saint Ranked Swordsman and yet, Ithamar consumed his stamina!

At his rank, he could fight for a week straight and still walk out breathing fine yet this frightening sword had absorbed all that stamina in one gulp!

And this was with the aid of Ariel Ashbourne, an imperial-ranked knight!

Asher couldn’t imagine the horror of what would have happened if it had been him alone resisting Ithamar’s spread.

A foreign thought came into his mind, one that wasn’t from him!

The interruption only meant one thing!

Sirius had awakened!

Turning, Asher gazed into Sirius’ crimson right eye. The left couldn’t open properly.

It seemed like Shomer M’el did more than just kill their enemies, his energy also quickened Sirius’ recovery.

After all, he was taken over by Belial for months.

Sirius approached and lowered its head and Asher touched the wolf’s head with his own. “Did you kill her?”

Asher chuckled. Hearing Sirius speak was unusual but the question he asked made him feel amused.

Sirius still didn’t forget Black Rose!

“I did.”

As he caressed Sirius’s head, the wolf became transparent and entered into his heart. Without being told, Asher knew it had gone to the mortal world.

Releasing a weak yet relieved sigh, he turned, his eyes dilating at the sight of Belial slithering away from the battlefield.

“Where’s Lamech?”

…

Asher stood amongst the other beasts, like Zillah, the Moon-chasing wolf, Night, and some others, looking at Lamech.

The Volibear sat on the tree trunk, where it usually sat. Although it’s been hours since the war, Lamech did not revert to his normal bear form.

He remained in his war state. And from Night, Asher realized the moment Lamech left his war state, he would die.

His tough hide was scarred at different places with grievous wounds inflicted by Belial that couldn’t heal.

It was said that wounds caused by Belial inflicted much pain like thorns pressed into an open wound!

Yet, Lamech’s face remained stoic.

“Young Ashbourne.” Lamech faced Asher with a soft human smile. Now that his face was restructured, he wasn’t limited to showing expressions with his eyes.

“You have less than four days remaining. Your mortal body would begin to reject your spirit if you do not return.”

His deep voice fell into Asher’s ears.

Asher revealed a bittersweet smile.

Seeing this Lamech chuckled. “You don’t know how to return. Hahaha, is this bravery or foolishness?”

Although he laughed, Asher could see Lamech was dying.

“All the imperial Volibears are dead. We didn’t expect Belial’s powers to have grown to such an extent but he’s greatly wounded now.”

“His forces are also severely weakened.” Zillah added.

Lamech responded with a nod. “Come, Asher.”

Asher walked up to the bear who rose as he approached.

Lamech placed his index finger on him—his hardened claws pressed against Asher’s head.

“It’s time.”

A white mist left him and entered Asher. In a blink of an eye, Asher discovered Lamech had reverted to his normal bear form while he was strangely taller and had white fur all over.

He had thick braids attached to golden rings, long claws that could cut through steel, overwhelming power running through his veins and a visually stunning outlook.

Right now, he looked like a Volibear in its war state. The only difference being he still had clothes on.

[Ding! Host has gained a third talent: Awakened Volibear Hide!]

This was a talent similar to his brother, Áthánatos Immortal Ragnarok Hide, a talent that both made his brother powerful and undying!

As he clenched his fist, lightning crackled on the surface of his bulging muscles. He looked at the two long braids that ran down his chest, almost reaching his waist!

His claws, which seemed as if they were created from blue crystal, crackled with lightning while one of his eyes glowed so bright that blue mist drifted off it.

He didn’t have spikes protruding out of his elbows and shoulders like other Volibear but his own war state looked even more imposing.

[Talent grade: First Order Zenith!]

Hide talents were talents that covered the human with an empowered physique created by the talent host’s force.

Meaning that Asher didn’t transform into a bear as if injured greatly in this state, his actual body would be seen.

It was like wearing a living suit of armor!

Asher squatted, staring at Lamech’s lifeless body. His hide retracted into his body, and he began to dissipate until he vanished completely.

His journey in the spirit world had come to an end.
