Chapter 447 - Let\'s Think Things Through
The tone of his voice was domineering and powerful that the marching army unconsciously stopped. The demi-humans who stopped their march were now able to get a good look at the newcomer. It was then they were able to identify who the person standing in front of them was. This was the strongest of the beastkin, no not just the beastkin this was the strongest demi-human in the underground city.
"It\'s Kor."
"It\'s the master warrior Kor."
"What\'s Kor doing here?"
"Did he tell us to stop?"
To the people of the underground city Kor was a very famous individual, in the eyes of many he was not only a strong warrior but also a hero. Kor was the one who had saved many of the current citizens of the underground city. So when they heard him say that they needed to stop, they were confused as to what to do.
When Ren heard what the head warrior said and looking at the reaction of the demi-humans it was obvious to him that this demi-human was the supposed strongest warrior.
"Kor stand aside." The chief stepped forward.
"Why are you suddenly going to war? Is it because of those humans standing there?" Kor gestured at Ren and his companions. The Chief sighed as he pointed at Valdel.
"This is the person who had succeeded in completing the trial of the wolves. He is now the leader of this pack, so when he says we go to war then we must… Also, this is not a war out of hatred, this is a war for our survival and for our people. Surely even you would understand that this is something that must be done."
"There\'s no such thing as a war that\'s not out of hatred. How can you say this is something we must do? Is dying in battle something we must do, is killing others something we must do? Why do we need to fight, can\'t we just continue to rescue those that are in need? If we go to war with the Holy Kingdom many will die, and by then no one will be saved."
"So are you willing to allow your kin to continue to be mistreated without doing anything?" Valdel chimed in looking at the beastkin called Kor.
"I don\'t know who you are, and what reason you have for making us do this, but no matter what war is never the answer. I will save my kin in my own way without the need for bloodshed. The only reason for all of this happening is because at the moment the citizens of the Holy Kingdom are simply misinformed about demi-humans, if we are able to speak with the Temple of the Goddess of Light and come to an understanding surely things will change."
"Do you truly believe that? So how come you\'re still here fiddling with your thumbs and not talking to the Temple of the Goddess of Light?"
"I have already sent them a letter and they are willing to meet with me. It\'s just that they have to prepare some things first before the meeting. So can you please wait and stop this?"
When everyone heard what Kor said they were surprised, did he really believe the words of the members of the Temple of the Goddess of Light?
"Are you a retard? If they were earnest about meeting you they would already have met you. This is obviously a trap." Ren couldn\'t hold it in as he spoke out his thoughts.
"How would you know that if you don\'t try? It could be a trap, yes, but it could also be the truth, it could be a chance to change things."
"Are you truly willing to do this while many of your kin are being discriminated upon, while many of them are dying from hunger or abuse? Even now as we are wasting our time talking many of them are dying." Valdel spoke sounding a bit more irritated.
"I understand what you\'re saying and I too want to save them, but war is never the way. If we go to war many will die not just from our side but the other side as well. I do not want to take the happiness of others just to gain my own happiness. So please, let\'s think this through before we regret our actions."
When Valdel heard Kor\'s response he was reminded of his past self before he got his memories as Kir. Still, he was sure that he wasn\'t this bad as he was willing to kill evil no matter what. This guy seems to not want to hurt anyone no matter if they were evil or not.
While Valdel was thinking about what to say, Ren spoke first.
"This talk is going nowhere, so you either move aside or I make you move!" When Kor heard what Ren said he didn\'t answer with words instead he answered with action. Kor took a defensive stance and stood in front of the army like an unmoving mountain. When Ren saw that and looked at Kor\'s eyes that were filled with determination and resolve, Ren showed his vicious smile which made those that knew what that smile meant shiver in fear.
"Now that\'s what I want to see! An actual beastkin with some backbone! Now that you have told me your ideals let\'s see if you have the power to back-up those ideals!"
Ren\'s mana and bloodlust started to leak out of his body, which made most of the warriors in the army feel an incredible suffocating pressure descend upon them. It was a good thing that Ren was in control now and was only directing all of this pressure on Kor, if the weaker warriors were to receive this pressure at full force they might have immediately died.
When Kor felt the oppressive aura leaking out of Ren he was momentarily surprised. This was the first time he had faced such an overwhelming aura. It was obvious from this that Ren wasn\'t some random human.
"If you\'re this strong then why do you need to shed so much blood, surely someone like you can deal with this in a better way."
"Hmph, to me this is the best way to deal with things. If you want to deny my way, then show me your strength to uphold your ideals!"
Ren then disappeared from his position and then reappeared before Kor. The warriors who had witnessed Ren\'s insane speed before were still surprised by the sight, while those that had witnessed it for the first time thought that Ren used a teleportation spell.
On the other hand, Kor was actually able to see the moment Ren dashed towards him. The speed was indeed surprising, but more than that Kor was surprised by Ren\'s control over his own body. Ren was able to accelerate at full speed and decelerate at the same time so that he was able to stop before Kor.
"Enough talk!" Ren shouted as he delivered a front kick. Kor could have dodged this strike, but instead, he steadied his stance hardened his muscles while circulating his mana. Ren\'s kick hit Kor at the center of his abdomen. The sound made by Ren\'s kick was like the sound of a blunt object hitting steel. Ren was surprised by the outcome of his attack, Kor didn\'t move a single step as his feet were planted firmly on the ground. Seeing that scene before him Ren showed a look of utter euphoria.
"Will you listen to me now?" Kor asked.
"Are you kidding me?! This isn\'t enough, show me more!"
