94 Inheritance (1/2)

Rei held Aiko as they were walking toward the city of Camelot. Rei wanted to come here as it meant that he would be ascertain what time it is during the holy war. Making two cloaks Rei covered both him and Aiko.

”This will help us hide from other people senses.” Rei said with a smile as he looked at Aiko. She nodded as she hung the hood lower. Leaping to the roof, Rei made some silencing seals to silence his foot steps as he jumped across from building to building. Rei could see that Camelot was overrun with demons.

'hmm, I hope that Arthur hadn't died yet, I don't want Merlin to be sad.' Rei thought as he sent out his haki. He could feel that the city was mostly filled with demon life signitures while there was a power human life force going towards the castle. Rei smiled slightly as he couldn't feel Meliodas' signiture.

'This either means that dad hadn't lost his emotions and is still with Eli chan or that he did and is somewhere else. I'd much rather the first option.' Rei thought while he leaped towards the castle and walked calmly. Walking through the walls, Rei could really marvel at the infrastructure.

”Aiko chan, this place is quite amazing isn't it?” Rei said as he showed Aiko the decorations.

”?How do you know my name? I havn't told you yet.” She said tilting her head.

”Errrr....

*BOOOOMMMMM!!!!!!

A sudden explosion cut Rei off as he looked towards the direction.

”Lets go Aiko chan, there is something interesting over there.” Rei said as he switched topics and walked over to the location.

Rei sat on top of a wall with a smile as he and Aiko watched what was happening.

”Why don't you help?” Aiko asked.

”Hmmm, because it's coolest to arrive just before disaster?” Rei said with a slight tilt of his head.

”Like a hero?” Aiko said turning her head to Rei.

”Huh, I suppose so. After all, years ago I did want to become a hero.” Rei said with a smile as he remembered about his life in Boku no Hero Academia.

”I did? So you don't want to be a hero now?” She asked.

”You really ask the hardest questions now don't you. Well I suppose it's because there is no good or bad. There is only the zone in the middle and some people are just lighter to darker. Everyone has their own back story and while I may be a hero to someone, it also means that I'll be a villain to someone else.” Rei said as he looked towards Arthur who pulled out Excalibur.

”So your a lighter shade of grey?” Aiko questioned as she looked towards Rei.

”Hmm, I'd say I'm more in the middle as I have done evil things to people.” Rei said.

”Well you're a lighter shade of grey to me.” Aiko said as she leaned more on Rei.

'Stockholm syndrome? Well I did kill her mum and take her with me.' Rei thought as he gave Aiko a side glance before looking back at Arthur. Right now, Arthur was using the techniques that various human legends had left behind in Excalibur.

”He's going to die.” Aiko said out of nowhere as she looked at Arthur fighting back against top ranked demons.

”Hou~ How can you tell.” Rei said with curiosity as Aiko was able understand what was happening.

”Weak points are showing up everywhere on his body while the two demons don't have a single one that was hit by him.” Aiko said shocking Rei slightly as Aiko was able to see the weak points of people.

”How can you tell that these are weak points?” Rei asked wanting to confirm.

”There are red dots everywhere on their bodies.” She said simply.

'She would be perfect to be an assassin with this talent.' Rei thought.

”AAAAHHHHHHHHHRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGG!!!!!!” Arthur screamed in pain as blood could be seen appearing every where on Arthur's body.

”Righto, it's my turn now.” Rei said as he stood up. He was about to set Aiko down when she grabbed him signalling him to bring her along. Rei only shrugged as he jumped down.

Cusack, one of the highest rank demons, crouched near Arthur as he looked at him and spoke.

”You made two grave mistakes lad. First is your fatal lack of power, I'd wager that the sword contains countless souls of countless human heroes and granted you power. But with that the strain was much bigger. I'm sure that you trained yourself but you couldn't reach their level so now your body is destroying itself. And the second...you trifled with the wrong opponents.” Cusack said as he was about to use his ability to control Arthurs' body.

”You made one too, no detecting me.” Rei said as he placed a hand on Cusack's shoulder shocking everyone as Rei seemed like he appeared out of nowhere. Cusack couldn't move as he was drenched with sweat. The pressure he felt from Rei was on par with the demon king and could easily kill him at any moment. Rei threw Cusack backwards as the body made a shockwave as it collided with Chandler, who was also one of the highest ranked demons.

Merlin appeared a split second after Rei threw Cusack as she was about to attack him. She was shocked at the sudden appearance of this duo as even she didn't detect them. One small and one large, the pressure she felt from the large figure was the same as what she felt from the demon king and the goddess.

Rei waved his hand as he healed all of Arthurs injuries with nature magic while Merlin was about to attack due to the fact that Rei might of wanted to harm Arthur.

”Who are you?” Merlin questions on guard in case Rei tries anything.
