Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

719 Chapter 719 Incredible Power

Meanwhile, in a particularly strange and extreme planet.

Amidst the vast, unforgiving landscape of a peculiar planet, Shinari navigated through a relentless desert storm. The scorching winds carried stinging particles that obscured visibility, creating an otherworldly environment where survival required exceptional skill. Her silhouette, shrouded in the swirling sands, moved with purpose through the hostile terrain.

As Shinari pressed on, the very ground beneath her trembled, and a colossal form emerged from the shifting sands. A giant sand dweller, a creature native to this harsh planet, roared defiantly. Its massive form, adapted to the extreme conditions, posed a formidable challenge to anyone daring to trespass in its territory.

"Finally, something to test my new skills."

Shinari, recognizing the imminent threat, shifted her stance, ready to face the monstrous adversary. The wind howled, carrying the distant echoes of the sand dweller's roar. In the blink of an eye, she vanished from view, leaving behind a faint afterimage.

The colossal creature swung its massive tail, aiming to crush Shinari beneath the shifting sands. Yet, the assassin reappeared with unparalleled speed, her movements almost too swift for the naked eye to perceive. She gracefully evaded the colossal tail, her form dancing on the edge of invisibility.

With a calculated strike, Shinari targeted the vulnerable joints of the sand dweller. Her movements, a blend of precision and speed, showcased a mastery over the art of assassination. The creature bellowed in pain as Shinari's strikes found their mark, exploiting weaknesses with surgical precision.

Her vision allowed her to see the weak points of her enemies, and with her newfound strength she was able to use it to her advantage.

As the battle intensified, Shinari unveiled a new technique—a shadowy mirage. In the midst of her acrobatic maneuvers, she melded with the shadows, creating a single, indistinct silhouette. The sand dweller, momentarily disoriented, struggled to identify the real Shinari.

Then, from the shadows emerged two identical figures, each moving with the same fluid grace. The giant sand dweller, now faced with the challenge of multiple adversaries, roared in frustration.

At first, there were only six. Then it multiplied to twelve, twenty-four, fourty-eight before there were dozens of her clones appearing all over the place.

Shinari's clones multiplied, a legion of shadowy figures converging upon the colossal beast.

In a mesmerizing display of speed and strategy, Shinari's clones attacked in unison. The desert storm became a chaotic ballet as dozens of Shinari figures weaved through the air, striking the sand dweller from every conceivable angle. The giant creature, overwhelmed by the onslaught, roared in agony.

As the battle reached its zenith, Shinari's clones merged seamlessly back into the shadows, leaving only the original assassin standing amidst the settling sands. The once ferocious sand dweller lay defeated, its colossal form now a testament to the prowess of Shinari.

"This isn't enough. I need to find a much more powerful monsters. Something that can challenge me."

With a composed expression, Shinari observed the aftermath of her victory. The wind carried away the remnants of the desert storm, revealing the serene landscape that had once been concealed. The alien planet, though harsh and unpredictable, had witnessed the mastery of a skilled assassin who had seamlessly blended with both the shadows and the storm.

"Where can I find it? Where can I find something that can challenge me?"

As she pondered her next move, the very ground beneath her quivered, and a multitude of monstrous forms emerged from the shifting sands. Dozens of sand dwellers, their massive frames eclipsing the alien horizon, surrounded Shinari in a formidable display of primal might.

Shinari was expressionless as if she did not pay any attention to the dozens of collosal beasts that surround her.

Then, with a sigh, she swiped the air with her blade and suddenly all of the beasts were all cut into pieces.

Blood flooded the sand dunes all around her as Shinari walked pass the corpses of the monsters.

"I need to visit a stronger planet."

Within the confines of a sleek spacecraft, Cleome, a master of the art of lightning, monitored the approaching planet with a sense of curiosity etched across her features. The vessel navigated through the cosmic expanse, closing in on a world threatened by a monstrous stampede that loomed as an existential threat to its civilization.

"Is this the planet?"

"Yes, madam. This planet has send a distress signal thirty-six hours ago."

As Cleome observed the planet's distress from the control room of the spacecraft, holographic displays flickered to life, projecting scenes of chaos and devastation.

"Madam, the world leaders send a communication signal to us. What do we do?"

"Accept it."

The world leaders, their expressions a mix of desperation and fear, appeared in a hologram that hovered above the central console.

"This is Astrion-9 Planetary Council. Before we say anything, may we know who you are?"

"I am Cleome. I am one of Celestial Platoon's emissaries."

Suddenly, color returned from their faces and their expression had a bright light of hope.

"This is great news. We have heard about Celestial Platoon's powerful reputation. We don't have much time for small talks, so I am going straight to the point. As you can see, our world is currently experiencing extreme monster stampede. We would like to hire the Celestial Platoon to help us fight the monsters."

"We accept," Cleome said.

"Eh, what about price?"

"We can talk about that later."

"O—okay. Can we ask when the reinforcement will arrive?"

"I am the reinforcement?"

"But I only see one ship."

"And that's all you need." Cleome smiled before opening the hatch of the spacecraft. The vacuum of space sucked out all of the oxygen and every objects within her chamber. Thankfully, the pilot was located in another chamber, if not he would be sucked out as well. The lack of oxygen would kill him if that were to happen.

However, to everyone's surprise, Cleome was able breathe despite the vacuum. Or, it was much more correct to say that she did not need to breathe oxygen at all.

The planetary councils that saw this from the projection was shocked as well.

Cleome. "Tell everyone to turn off every electronics for a few hours. And, don't let anyone take a bath or drink from the tap."

"'May I ask why?" That was such a strange request.

"You will know why."
