The Legends Of Creator Hero
Natural genius

Rigel's right-handed bluish rune appeared without being called. It was as if it was burning its skin from the outside and inside. Rigel groaned in pain as he continued to hold his right hand and looked at him. When looked back, five rune lines formed that flowed five different powers and spread throughout his body.

Why stage five?!!! I didn't try to use Void, yet he naturally appeared and reached stage five?? Did he resonate with the water of life or something??

Unable to understand. Why would the Void react only with Rigel drinking the water of life? is it possible that the life energy Rigel drank is almost the same as the soul core that can strengthen the Void? if true, then the answer to this reaction is either the Void getting stronger, or Rigel's body getting stronger.

"Rigel! Are you all right?! What is this, there shouldn't be any bad things that come with just drinking the Water of life..." Tirith looked confused, as did Altucray.

So far, there have been no cases where the water of life can have adverse effects such as pain or anything like that. Even Tirith and Altucray had taken it, but they had no ill effects. Instead they get the sacred protection of Excalibur. If a person who does not have Pendragon's blood drink the water of life, it should heal the wounds they receive.

"Silent... Only! This... Only increase... Unexpected!" Rigel spoke while groaning, enduring the pain.

This time not only his right hand, but his entire body felt burning in the sea of hot lava. But behind that Rigel felt the changes happening to his body slowly and of course it leads to something good... Might as well.

Rigel's struggle had ended as the pain and heat he felt slowly disappeared, along with the runes adorning his body. Rigel began to pant and sweat flooded his body. He had not felt such a thing before and had no intention of feeling it again.

"What... What the hell..." Rigel muttered and started to catch his breath.

"What's Rigel? you looked very sick before..."

Rigel looked at Tirith, in view of his reaction and Altucray was clear that this was the first time they had seen him. They cannot be blamed. Being too reckless and in a hurry to drink the water of life, he did not expect that it would make unnecessary pain due to the Void getting stronger or something.

"Huhhh~, it doesn't seem like a good idea for me to drink it again. Although the pain was unbearable and almost drove me crazy, the changes to my body can be obvious..." Stronger and more stamina than ever.

Well, it won't be proven other than trying it yourself. But it's not the time. For now, spreading the bait is his top priority. In addition, Phoenix was still a goal that he had to reach as soon as possible.

"That's enough... Let's go back, my business is done. Hey slave, prepare a comfortable place for our conference about the next target after Tortoise." Rigel accessed Index to mark this place as a teleportation point and he also had Ciel write down the coordinates of this place.

"Why should I? you have your own country, have that meeting there!" Altucray snapped at Rigel.

"C, oii. Are you really that old, to the point of forgetting that Britannia is also my country?" Rigel smiled mockingly and made Altucray even more furious.

"Tch! rather than that, when will you let go of my daughter's shackles?! don't tell me it's just a trick of yours!"

"Yes, I'll do it..." Rigel looked at the troubled Tirith and Altucray who looked surprised, "At the moment I found a way to erase his memories... See you at the conference later..." Leaving behind his mocking laughter and evil smile, Rigel teleported back to the Region. Leaving Tirith and Altucray alone.

"That bastard! Pitch there!" Altucray shouted and threw his swearing at Rigel who had vanished from before him.

Rigel returned to the Region for now before starting his meeting with another Hero. Arriving in the Region, he was greeted by Asoka who sat on the throne and Ray, Ozaru, Merial and Misa.

Ray first spoke, "Rigel, I've contacted the other Heroes over the radio and told them to gather in Britannia for a meeting. Then, I told Leo that you wanted to meet him and he's currently practicing swordplay with Fang."

Rigel gave each one a small Radio for them. In case Rigel needs their help. In the attack of the demon invasion, only Britannia alone did not suffer much damage, thanks to the protector protecting the royal capital. Because other countries including the Central Region are busy restoring the kingdom so that Britannia is the best choice.

"I've also sent some soldiers to prepare what you asked, Rigel." Continue to Asoka who sent the report to Rigel.

"Good work, you can really count on. For now, I'll see Leo first." Rigel walked towards the training room.

"I'm coming with you." Ozaru caught up with Rigel and together headed for the training room.

Upon arriving there they saw Fang who was training to fight using a wooden sword with Leo. Judging from the sweat they had, it seemed that they had fought long enough and it was clear that Fang was overwhelmed.

"Let's go, Leo. I'm old, don't have as much stamina as you."

"One more time, Uncle Fang, please!" Leo bowed his head to Fang who was already panting.

"Oii, oii, don't push Fang too much, Leo. He's aged, you better spar a sword with me." Rigel stretched his body and entered the fighting arena. Leo looked surprised and beamed as he was about to spar the sword with Rigel.

Ozaru sat quietly and wanted to watch Rigel fight with Leo. Fang saluted Rigel and Ozaru and took a seat near Ozaru.

"I'll show you what I'm capable of now! Don't blame me if you get hurt, Dad!" Leo scoffed while brandishing his wooden sword.

Rigel did not take the wooden sword and threw it to the edge of the arena. Leo did not understand and thought that Rigel would fight using his bare hands.

"Down the toy, Leo," Rigel created two swords of the same size and quality and threw one of them to Leo, "Use it from now on."

Leo took the real sword in confusion. He did not expect that it would arrive when he fought with a real sword.

Rigel notices that Leo has grown into a boy of twelve or thirteen and above. Maybe it was because he was a Demi-human, which progressed depending on how many levels they gained. If so, it is estimated that perhaps Leo has reached the level of 50 and above.

"Are we really going to practice sparring with a real sword, Dad?" Worry is clearly etched on Leo's face.

Unable to breathe, cold sweat, fear overpowered, his brain asked to move, yet his body was unwilling to obey his orders. Leo can't dwell on Rigel's pressure, but he must overcome it. His trembling hand slowly stopped trembling and gripped firmly on his sword.

"Hoho?" Rigel is shocked that Leo manages to overcome the pressure Rigel exerts. To overcome this, Leo chose to bite his lips, because the pain can make him escape the terrible pressure. Rigel smiled, "Get out all your strength as if to kill me."

"Hehe, don't blame me if you get hurt!" Leo quickly took a step and jumped up, swinging his sword over Rigel's head.

Rigel held him down with his sword and stopped Leo in midair, "Pretty good, Leo." Rigel praised a little, but Leo's attack did not stop there. He maneuvered behind Rigel and turned around, trying to injure him.

Rigel grabs Leo's leg and throws it back to where he was before, "Good trick, but it's easy to read and you're very slow."

Leo got up and put his horses back on. Now, it's Rigel's turn to attack. Rigel quickly cut the distance and swung him to Leo's left side. Not intending to hold back, Leo chose to take some distance from Rigel's attack range, he spun and ran to the other side of Rigel and stabbed his sword into Rigel's waist, but again failed. Rigel used the back of his sword to deflect the direction of Leo's attack.

"Is this all you're capable of, Leo?" Rigel again taunts, but Leo is not provoked by Rigel's taunts to make an outspoken attack.

Leo again kept his distance and concentrated his Mana on his sword and foot, "Hoho? I can't believe you can use Mana..." Rigel. During this time, Rigel had not taught Leo how to use Mana and combined it with sword techniques.

But Leo's shortcomings are evident from the time he collects Mana for too long. Rigel is deliberately silent and waiting for something Leo will do.

"Burst step!" Leo stepped up very quickly and was already in front of Rigel, "Thousand lightning slashes!" Rigel is surprised that Leo can use the moves he has shown at least once.

Rigel tried to take some distance but it was too late.

*....................

*Clang................

Leo had been far behind Rigel. In a split second, the sword in Rigel's hand broke into two pieces. Leo concentrated his attack on the sword in Rigel's hand and managed to break it. Ozaru got up from his seat and smiled, "It looks like his match has ended..."

Rigel was also surprised that Leo broke his sword, not only that. Leo managed to scratch Rigel's face a bit, it proved that his abilities had improved drastically, yet it wasn't close enough to make him worthy of being a candidate.

Leo turned to face Rigel with a bold smile, "I told you, don't blame me for getting hurt..." It was unexpected that Rigel would hear such a provocation from Leo, and it was quite comforting.

"I admit you've grown a lot, Leo... I wonder where did you learn those thousand lightning slashes from?"

Fang couldn't possibly teach him, because as far as Rigel had noticed he hadn't fought using a sword. But using his sharp claws, because he can turn into a wolf.

"I learned it when I saw the movement that Dad showed and I tried to imitate it, and then how I managed to do it."

Not only Rigel, but Fang and Ozaru who approached them were shocked to hear him. That is, Leo may be able to mimic the style of someone he sees. Instead of mimicking it, it might be more suitable to study it in one glance. If so, then Leo is likely to become a very powerful swordsman, perhaps on par with Asoka or the King of another country like Altucray.

"Well, that's not necessarily... Leo, I'm gonna show you one of my moves. Try to imitate it."

Rigel took a distance from the others, he created a new sword and an iron at the end of the arena that was useful as a target of his attacks. Rigel turned his sword a little and poured enough Mana into it. Taking the form of the Horses lowered their heads slightly down, changed the grip of his weapon and took two steps forward. Rigel threw his sword with all his might towards that iron target. Streams of electricity emerged from the sword hilt that Rigel sword had and gusts of strong wind appeared as he threw his sword forcefully.

The sword accelerated very quickly and managed to break through the targeted iron. Not too long later, the iron on which the sword was stuck was smashed to pieces due to the power it exuded. Leo and Fang stared in awe, they had never seen anyone throw their swords like that. Of course, because only Rigel would dare to do that because he could create as many weapons as he wanted.

"Great! that's so great Dad!" Leo beamed and was amazed by the style that Rigel had previously released.

Rigel smiled and looked at Leo, "Try you do as I do, use that sword in your hand. If it works, I'll give you a gift that I guarantee quality."

"All right!"

Rigel creates another target iron for Leo kenai. Rigel and the others kept their distance from Leo who was already concentrating on gathering Mana in his sword grasp.

Leo took a deep breath and started taking two long steps. He changed the handle of his sword and threw it with all his might.

*Woosh............

The wind blew fiercely as the sword thrown in Leo's hand was thrown and towards the iron target Rigel had created. The sword stuck deep enough, although it slightly deviated from its main point. Unlike, if Rigel can smash it into small pieces, Leo can only make a few cracks in the target's iron. However, in this way it is clear that Leo really has the talent to learn many styles in a fast time.

"Hahaha, really a natural genius..." Ozaru laughed a little and was amazed at Leo. It is fitting that Leo gets such a nickname. It's possible that Leo can learn some sword moves from the real fight he has to go through. Moreover, if he could learn anything other than swords would be incredible.

"I agree, natural genius is indeed a fitting designation. In retrospect, you can access Ciel with just one explanation. You have Leo's talent, if you keep developing your talent until you're strong enough to be with me, I don't mind letting you call me Dad." Rigel gave a happy smile to Leo and he took something from his inventory, "This, as a gift, I will give you this Kusanagi sword. Rather than me, I'm sure this sword will be much more useful if you use it."

Leo slowly took the sword with the blade of the Katana He felt very amazed by the sword that had great power in it. Kusanagi let out a brief flash of light as if he had found the master he was looking for.

"I'll take good care of him! and I'm gonna keep getting stronger, thanks Dad!" Leo jumped up and hugged Rigel with a hint of tears. Rigel will let it go for this time only. The next meeting of Heroes will begin.
