Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Everyone who was watching the scene before them held their breath. Normally being surrounded by such beauties would be a blessing, but in this case, it was nothing but a horror show. The killing intent that they were emitting was spreading and now not only Samson but most of those present in the arena could feel the grip of death.

Samson wanted to say something but just slightly opening his mouth made the Emperor's wives' killing intent rise and their weapons by his neck came closer.

"I have tolerated your existence for far too long. If not for Ren always protecting you, I would've cut you down the moment I met you."

Silika stepped forward and stood face to face with Samson as she spoke. She then looked at the others and gave a signal. The others then backed away giving Samson and Silika some space.

"Do you have any last words before I send you to the next life?"

Finally being released by the grip of killing intent, Samson had a crazed look on his face.

"What have I done to warrant death? I merely stated that truth, that barbarian does not deserve any of your love!"

"Is that all you want to say, if so prepare to die."

Silika lifted her hand and a scythe appeared. Samson wanted to fight back but found that he could not move at all. In the corner of his eyes, he saw Henrietta the Grand Mage pointing her staff at him. He could sense her mana encroaching his entire body. He could even feel that his own mana was being drained by Henrietta.

Unable to move and retaliate and looking at the scythe Silika was holding, for the first time in a long time, Samson actually felt afraid.  As the scythe was about to hit him he unconsciously closed his eyes.

"You scared him enough."

When Samson heard that familiar voice he opened his eyes only to see Ren standing between him and Silika. The scythe was inches away from Samson's neck but was stopped by Ren. After surviving from the near-death experience, and seeing that he was obviously saved by Ren, almost everyone would've thanked Ren profusely but Samson did something else entirely.

"You damn b*stard it's all your fault! If not for your trickery these lovely maidens wouldn't have been sullied."

Samson who was freed from Henrietta's spell quickly got his rapier and lunged at Ren with the quickest speed he could muster at such a short distance.  Samson used every bit of his mana and enveloped it on his weapon as he tried to pierce through Ren's chest. Yet the moment his weapon made contact with Ren's chest it shattered.

...

The actions Samson did had shocked everyone, when they saw that he actually dared to attack the Emperor and actually succeed they were even more shocked, but what happened next made them feel numb. The rapier Samson used to attack had shattered into a thousand pieces upon hitting the Emperor's chest, it didn't bend nor did it break, it actually shattered, as if it were glass.

If it was just any weapon that shattered the audience wouldn't be as shocked, but Samson's weapon was forged by the dwarven brothers that created the Emperor's legendary weapon Snertal.

"How?!"

Samson screamed as he looked at his now bladeless weapon in anger, shock, and horror. As he was still in a state of confusion he heard a sigh, he raised his head and saw Ren looking at him with utter disappointment.

"Even though I gave you so much, and allowed you to go around practically unhindered this is all you amount to. The first time I met you the fire in your eyes, the obsession you had to take me down, I thought for sure that you would amount to something. When I saw the speed that you had during the fight I was pleasantly surprised. In that one aspect, you have far surpassed me, unfortunately, that's all you had. Not only that, you don't even know how to use your great speed properly and actually self-destructed on your own. You really did turn out to be nothing more than a waste of time. Now that you've made my wives and children angry to this point, I guess you have already resigned yourself to your fate. Still, I guess I can give you one last chance. I will allow you to attack me for five seconds without moving from my spot. I won't use any spiritual energy nor will I dodge any of your strikes. If you are able to somehow injure me then I will let you live."

Samson who was in a dazed state heard what Ren said and the fury within him was once again reignited. He glared at Ren his killing intent on the rise.

"You! You! It's all your fault! How dare you look down on me! Injure you? I'm going to f*cking kill you!"

Samson took out his dagger and sped around Ren accelerating to his maximum speed. Once he reached his ultimate speed, he was about ready to attack Ren. He knew from the last attack that even though Ren didn't use any mana Ren's muscles were harder than even the hardest steel. So attacking Ren in almost every part of his body would result in the breaking of his dagger that was inferior to his rapier. As he was thinking about where to strike, he heard Ren's voice.

"Three seconds left."

When Samson heard Ren's warning he no longer hesitated and rushed at Ren his aim was Ren's eyes. As he was going to stab Ren's eyes he saw that Ren had closed his eyelids blocking his eyes. Samson scoffed as he felt that even though Ren's muscles were able to shatter his rapier the eyelids were too thin to be able to deflect his dagger. As he stabbed into Ren's eyes something unexpected happened his dagger could not pierce through.

"Two seconds left."

Hearing Ren's voice Samson became desperate as he pulled away and this time sliced at Ren's neck. Yet the same as with the eyelids his dagger could not penetrate his skin. Samson then tried kicking Ren's balls but instead of them cracking it was his legs that cracked. He screamed in pain and could no longer move one of his beloved legs.

"Zero... It would seem that you can't even harm me, much less kill me. You really did turn out to be such a disappointment." Ren shrugged his shoulders as he sighed. "I guess even I could make mistakes in seeing one's potential. Well, I guess this is all you would amount to. So any last words?"

Ren grabbed hold of Samson's neck and lifted him up. Samson struggled with all his might attacking Ren with some middle-tier spells at close range, but Ren was unaffected. Over the years Ren's body has only grown stronger, nowadays he doesn't even need to use his mana or Spirit Aura to fight his opponents for his physical strength alone was enough.

After struggling a bit more and failing Samson knew that he would not survive today. Still, he did not beg for his life and instead showed a crazed look and laugh.

"HAHAHA! Fine, kill me now you b*stard! The only regret I have is that I won't be able to see your eventual fall and the Empire you created crumble. You have little time now to continue playing as the Emperor. HAHAHA, even now you still don't know that death is by your side."

"Is that all you have to say?"

Samson who heard Ren's reply was dumbfounded that's not what he expected Ren would say.

"Wait aren't you curious as to what I know? Wouldn't you like to know about the traitors who linger within your own backyard? If you kneel and beg me I might divulge everything I know."

Ren couldn't help but look at Samson with a face saying that he was looking at an absolute idiot. Ren once again sighed as he replied.

"It seems I really did make a mistake in my judgment of you. As for the information you have, I don't really care about it. Let the enemies come and it doesn't matter whoever they are, since all I need to do is crush them. I will remind them that plots, schemes, and any kind of trickery are useless against overwhelming power. I just hope that whoever is plotting in the dark to provide me with some kind of entertainment."

After saying his piece Ren broke Samson's neck. Even as death had come for him he still had that dumbfounded look on his face.
