Capítulo 83: Ch 73 – The Eccentric Hououin Kyouma
As the group of ten teleported to the royal palace, they were greeted by the sight of the king and the royal family sitting on their thrones surrounded by guards and were looking at the reincarnates with surprised eyes when they saw the unknown individual with average height, white hair and white eyes that was behind a pair of glasses while wearing a weird white cloak that was on top of his white shirt and the only thing not white on his body were his black pants and shoes.
"Hello, your highness," said Kilt with a straight face as the king nodded at him.
"Is this the 10th reincarnate?" asked the king.
"Indeed your highness, it's nice to meet you," said Kyouma as he walked in front of the group and went towards the king sitting on his royal throne as the royal family look at him with curious eyes.
The king was a very muscular man with a big body that towers over most humans, with blue eyes, blond hair, and a beard that shows his masculinity, he was a man that seems to command respect from his mere gaze alone.
"And may I know this reincarnates name?" asked the king as he stood up to greet Kyouma.
"The name's Hououin Kyouma, family name is Kyouma," said Kyouma as he went for a handshake which the king kindly reciprocate.
"Well it's nice to meet you Kyouma, my name is Charles Pendragon," said the king with a smile as he patted Kyouma's back.
"Oh, a fitting name indeed, say, is there a legend in your family who wielded a sword stuck in a rock?" asked Kyouma which took the king by surprise.
"No? Did my name remind you of anything?" asked the king with a raised eyebrow as he sat down on his throne.
"Maybe," said Kyouma with a mysterious smile as he went back to the others while Kilt went to speak once more.
"So your highness, when will we hold the announcement?" asked Kilt.
"We shall hold it in a few days, the hero Kyouma could be taught the basics and get his own lodging inside the palace for now," said the king as the nine nodded while Kyouma just looked around in wonder even and didn't even bother to listen to what the king was saying and instead borrowed a spear from a guard and swung it around with a wide grin.
"Kyouma," said Kilt as he looked at Kyouma who was playing around with a glare, Kyouma sighed in response and gave back the spear to the guard and went back to his fellow reincarnates.
"So, what will you guys teach me?" asked Kyouma as they appeared back in the room with nine chairs with Kyouma plopping down on the floor without care.
"About the world, its races, the history, and a bunch of stuff," said Imerda by the side as Kyouma sighed in annoyance.
"Just give me the books, I'll be fine on my own, besides, I don't think you guys will be great teachers," said Kyouma as he stood up unnaturally as what he did was that he directly stood up with his legs alone as a support instead of the normal sitting down and getting up.
"Hey, just so you know I'm a great teacher," said Flare by the side with a prideful smile.
"And I'm smarter than you before you reincarnate, you were probably a big fat loser before you arrived at this world and received this thin called Cheat Skills," said Kyouma with a yawn and paced around the room with a blank stare while Flare acted like a dagger pierced through her heart.
"Enough about that, are you sure you're fine with studying on your own? Flare is not lying when she said she is great at anything, it's her cheat" said Kilt by the side.
"Yeah, and if you guys don't mind, I'd want to live in the wild," said Kyouma which took the others by surprise at his random actions.
"Why so?" asked Don with his soulfire eyes showing curiosity.
"Just a personal preference," said Kyouma as he suddenly stood by one leg alone and the other leg waving around in a chaotic manner as Kyouma showed a surprising amount of balance.
"We'll try to arrange your house in the forest beside the royal academy where the students train, are you fine with that?" asked Kilt.
"Yep, I'd also want to build the house myself," said Kyouma as Kilt sighed and rubbed his head at how eccentric this new reincarnate as he watched him spinning around on one leg at a rapid pace that his cloak fluttered with the wind like a school girl revealing her underwear when she spins with her short skirt.
"That's also fine, Don can teleport you to the forest and you can find a place to build your house on your own, are you fine with that?" asked Kilt as he stood up and went towards a door beside them and took out some wooden chests and plop it down in front of Kyouma.
"Mmm" nodded Kyouma as he stopped his spinning and look at the chests that Kilt was opening, and inside them were weapons and also tools that seems to be for him.
"Oh thank you," said Kyouma as Don stood up from his chair and walked towards Kyouma with slow steady steps.
"You sure you want to live inside the forest?" asked Don as Kyouma was so different compared to the other members of their team, they were a bit eccentric but Kyouma was too eccentric with his actions.
"Indeed sir Don," said Kyouma.
"Sigh, let's get you to the forest then," said Don as Kilt nodded at them, and with that, they appeared inside a random forest full of trees along with the chests that Kilt gave to Kyouma.
"Goodbye then, just call us with this tool when you need some help," said Don as he gave him an orb-like object and with that, he teleported away leaving Kyouma all alone in the forest with nothing but the chests on the ground and the orb.
"Well let's get to work shall we," I said and stretched my body around that felt so great and my lungs, I could keep in the air for a few minutes already at this point.
As I looked at the chests Kilt kindly gave me, I grabbed a sword that was actually a magic tool as I was already familiar with it from how long I used that cheat and swung it around and knew that it has tons of very useful enchants like self-repair, increased sharpness, and other stuff.
"Hmm, well I would only be living in the forest till I get bored of being alone, but this is a fun place to start a new home," I said with a chuckle as I look at the tree with the intention of cutting it down as my body rapidly responded and went to evolve so that it can become a better body with stronger and more durable muscles.
"I wonder what would be my daily nutrition intake at this point, it was a good thing I ate plenty before I became the 10th hero, is there any wild beast inside this forest to hunt for food?" I muttered and went to swing the sword and felt it slicing through butter while my body hastily got accustomed to the motion of swinging and hurriedly corrected my flaws the moment I swung it again.
With a smirk, I went to cut down more trees for a few more seconds as I got enough trees for a decent size house and look at the chop trunks all around me, with a sigh, I rolled up my lab coat's sleeves and prepared to pull the trunks with brute strength.
I then walk to the nearest trunk beside me and grabbed its body and got into a squatting position and felt my body already responding to my actions as my connections with my muscles rapidly got better and better which would allow me to maximize my strength.
And not only that, my blood pumped harder with the increased oxygen intake and it made my body stronger overall as I tightened my grip and with a deep breath, I pulled the trunk with all my might letting out a grunt as the grasp of the earth on the trunk's roots fought against me but I didn't stop as my body rapidly got stronger with the increasing stress and desperation with my muscles rapidly getting bigger like a bodybuilder built for strength and with a grunt, I managed to pull out the trunks as roots sprawled around everywhere.
"Phew!" I said as I looked at my muscles which rapidly shrunk down to become lean and more durable while having the same amount of strength and chuckled at my rapid rise in strength.
"A few more to go," I said with a chuckle and walked towards the next trunk as I fought a hard war against the roots of the earth with my rapidly increasing strength as evolution metamorphosed my body into the natural enemy of the ground that grasped the roots of trees.
AN: This is 1543 words, you're welcome.
The Sword of Damocles hangs above each and everyone one of you with its ever present threat of despair, so send me some power stones with your power of friendship and save the thousands perhaps even millions to come who will read this masterpiece immortalized in the tunnels of time.
