Reborn as the Hero’s Daughter! Time to Become the Hero Once More! Chapter 364
After shaking off the knights pursuit, I returned to the Capital Raum.
Using the forest terrain and Stealth Gift to my advantage, losing people who were amateurs at investigation was a trivial task.
For the ti being, I decided to head to Maxwells mansion. I had to convey what I confird today.
Nicole was to be guarded in his mansion tonight. Cortina was aware of that already. Since the situation affected Michelles parents, there was nothing suspicious about being protected by Maxwell, who was the biggest firepower of this city.
Oh, welco Nico- Whore you?
Thanks for the welco. Mateus, was it?
This was technically the first ti I was eting him as Reid, so I pretended that this was our first eting.
However, Mateus was tasked with protecting the house, so it was natural that he would stay vigilant towards an unfamiliar man.
Seeing him reach for his sword, I felt like teasing him for a bit.
In the end, I didnt get to move my body much when dealing with Lichtenberg. Even with Kufar, it was my overwhelming victory in terms of affinity.
In other words, I still havent had an opportunity to fully display my current power. With a tough guy like Mateus before , I could do that just fine.
Im the old mans acquaintance.
Thats quite a sneaky way of putting it. Even enemies are acquaintances, right?
Instead of answering his question, I just revealed a aningful smile. It was an attitude to get him to misunderstand it. And he easily took that bait.
He forcefully pulled out his swords and attacked right away. The speed he put into it showed that he was not holding back at all.
However, for the current , those slashes were awfully slow.
I dodged his left slash by shifting sideways, and hit his right slash at the blades base, turning it away.
In response, I sent a low kick towards his shifted leg, but he avoided it as expected.
That was within my calculations, however. Instead of killing my montum, I swung my arm on top, did a half-rotation, and added a backward roundhouse kick.
Switching from low to high attack while his posture was broken proved to be too much for him to react to and he took the attack on.
That said, he wasnt so bad to take that hit directly. Thus, he stopped my kick with his shoulder, and decided to charge at . But his feet suddenly stopped.

You really have no openings, huh, mister?
You did well to notice it yourself.
Alright, its my loss. Co on, I lost again? Why is Raum so filled with monsters lately?
Mateus, who shrugged his shoulders with those words, had a thread coiled around his neck. The thread was going over the doorknob, so if he had charged earlier, it would have strangled him.
Still, I was charged with protection. Couldnt you tell your na at least?
Yeah, sorry for provoking you earlier. Im Reid.
It was just a montary exchange, but I managed to easily ward Mateus heavy attack away with one hand and capture all his movents, so I was satisfied.
As expected, soone on Mateus level was no opponent for in this body. Confirming that fact alone was a good enough result.
After a short while, Maxwell returned ho, and after being guided by Mateus, I reported the situation about Kufar to him.
Maxwell looked a little surprised to see return so soon, but quickly collected himself, thinking that it was possible knowing the forr , and we moved to a different room for discussion.
So yeah, Kufar turned out to be the reincarnation of the priest from my previous life, and a Sli.
Wait, I am not following you, so explain it from the start.
Well
Hearing my clear and concise explanation, Maxwell criticized . It was botherso, but his judgnt was usually correct, so I had no choice but to explain until he was satisfied.
After he heard that he had sprouted an ego under the influence of so Ley Line in the north, and rembered his previous life, Maxwell couldnt help but be astonished.
What, how can that be If it was not you, I would have laughed it off as nonsense.
We both reincarnated similarly, but we are fundantally different. I was reincarnated by Marias spell, after all.
In that case, he is a natural reincarnator huh. Quite a valuable existence.
Well, I leave how to convey this to Cortina to you old man. Also, I used the Polymorph scroll today, so tell her I cant see her this month.
Oh dear The first half aside, please do not make say the second half. A maidens hysteria is beyond my hands.
Still, if I dont disguise, shell realize what Ive been doing as Nicole.
If it was so unfamiliar uncle, I would have attacked in my original form. But this ti it was different as the people concerned were Michelles parents. They both knew my face, so if I displayed strength that clearly exceeded an adults they would start suspecting things.
Maybe I could have deceived them with the Illusion Ring, but rescuing them was connected to the risk of physical contact, thus I chose to go with Polymorph instead.
This happens because you use Polymorph without considering the situation
Co on. Though I did think I wasted it at the end.
As I was holding my head in regret, pain ran through my body. It was the sa pain I have experienced several tis over the past few months. In other words, the pain of reverting to my original body.
Kh, Im out of ti huh Maxwell, please
Clothes? Give a mont.
I left the rest as I grit my teeth in pain. Hearing it, Maxwell rushed out of the reception room.
After experiencing it over and over, I could endure it without fainting, but I still couldnt move. I asked him to get my clothes for .

The underling solder clothes I was currently wearing were too big for my original body, so I needed to get changes. Well, it was just Maxwell, so I didnt really mind staying buck naked either.
Just as I finished my transformation, Maxwell returned with my uniform. I languidly accepted them and started changing. Seeing how I didnt care about being seen, Maxwell retorted in exasperation.
Goodness, it seems your road as a lady is still long.
Im not even walking that road. Leaving that aside
Our conversation got interrupted due to Polymorphs ti limit, but Kufars case was the focus now.
There is certainly Dens case, but I had not considered that a Sli would undergo abnormal evolution.
Yeah. You said there was a disguised culprit in the Adventurers Guild despite magic being sealed there. That was probably also Kufar.
So you are saying that he used the Slis characteristic mimicry skill to disguise himself? That is one troubleso monster when it possesses an intellect.
Also, the poison that Cloud found the other day
Disease Sli fragnt? There were no cases of it being subjugated recorded in the north.
The rare species of Sli that appeared in the north. It had disappeared without being ever subjugated.
And then, the poison of that sa monster had spread in Raum, and at the sa ti, Kufar, who was also a Sli, had appeared. He seed to be trying to improve the Half-Demons standing in the society by summoning Devils, and there was also an organization with similar goals and thods.
It would be weirder to not make a connection among them.
In that case, Kufars claim that he was the sa priest that beca the reason of my death was quite convincing.
So the sa person that drove you to death beca your enemy again? That is Quite a strange coincidence.
To the point that Im starting to think that it was part of Whiteys sche.
Incidentally, Reid, how is your equipnt? A Sli should have been corrosive. It would be very sad for equipnt of that quality to get ruined.
Everythings fine on that end. Its made with the Evil Dragons materials, and the threads are Mythril too. Corrosion cant do anything to it. Materials play the part too, but Astes skill has to be praised as well. As for my katana, Ill take care of it later.
So you hold the advantage over Kufar alone? Physical attacks are hardly effective against slis as you know.
I have Enchant for that. The current can deal with him easily.
He wasnt soone I needed to be afraid of as long as I knew his true form. As long as I didnt get dragged into his trap, I could deal with him.
I declared fully convinced in my words.
