Demon Lord's Reincarnation

Kor was guiding Ren towards the Temple while being carried, and it only took them a few minutes to get there. Still, even without Kor to guide him Ren would've eventually found the location of the Temple of the Goddess of Light since it was a rather easy place to find, as the building was too eye-catching.

The Temple was located at the literal center of the city and it was a huge building that was easily thrice the size of the surrounding buildings. The Temple was exaggeratedly extravagant looking. Ren put down Kor and asked, "Is that really a Temple? It looks more like a castle."

"Yeah, this is the Temple of the Goddess of Light, the largest religious Temple in the continent. It is the place that houses the strongest army among all of the other Temples... Sir Ren, I really think we should meet with my contact from the inside first."

"No need, like I said we're going to enter proudly from the front." Ren started walking towards the entrance of the Temple while Kor was following close behind. In front of the entrance to the Temple were four knights and with one look Ren knew that the four knights standing guard were pretty decent. Ren couldn't help but smile viciously with his canine teeth showing. Ren then stopped a few feet from the entrance of the Temple.

...

The four knights noticed Ren and Kor from a distance and one of them took out glasses that could see through one's mana. The knight noticed that the beastkin who was standing behind the young human had a very enormous mana supply that could rival the elites among the knights, as for the young man at the front his mana supply was above average but it was nothing special.

The four knights thought that Ren was some kind of young master and the beastkin behind him was his bodyguard. They started to wonder what Ren wanted from the Temple.

'Is he here to ask for assistance?'

'Is he one of those young master's that want to join the Temple's knight order?'

'He does seem decently trained but with his mana supply, he wouldn't be able to get past being a squire.'

'What is this guy thinking, bringing a beastkin here?'

While the four knights were wondering what Ren came to do, Ren suddenly stopped. He then showed a very vicious-looking smile that actually made the four knights feel a sense of fear. They couldn't understand it but it felt like they were being stared down by a gigantic monster.

"WE ARE A PART OF THE FANGS OF KATAR! WE'VE COME HERE TO NEGOTIATE WITH THE TEMPLE OF THE GODDESS OF LIGHT!"

The four knights including Kor was surprised by Ren who was suddenly shouting, but more than that they were surprised by what he said.

'These two are a part of the Fangs of Katar!' Three of the four knights quickly surrounded Ren and Kor, while another knight headed into the temple to alert the others.

"Oh, are you not going to let us in to talk things out?" Ren asked as he looked at the three surrounding him.

"We don't negotiate with terrorists, especially with filthy demi-humans and those that support them." One of the knights spoke.

"To actually betray your own kind for some mutts, how disgusting." Another knight chimed in.

When Ren heard their response the smile on his face disappeared as he spoke to Kor who was standing behind him.

"Did you hear that? These guys aren't going to have a proper conversation with you. They don't even see you as an equal, to them you're actually worse than a monster. So do you still want to  talk?"

"Even so, I still believe that we could all get along as long as we're able to remove the misunderstandings. No matter, if they look at me like something disgusting, I still want to try and talk to them." When Ren heard Kor's answer the smile on his face returned.

"Did you hear that? Even though you insulted him, this guy still wants to have a proper conversation."

"Who would want to have a conversation with a beast?" The moment the knight said those words something huge suddenly appeared before him, and a thundering sound reverberated through the area.

The three knights were unable to see how he moved, but the gigantic beastkin was suddenly in front of one of the knights and his back was facing the knight.

"Please, Sir Ren, don't kill them."

"You hear that he saved your life even though you're an irritating piece of sh*t."

"Huh, what the f*ck are you saying? Are you-" The knight wasn't able to finish what he wanted to say when he suddenly lost consciousness. The two other knights were surprised by what happened, but they were well-trained knights and quickly took their distance from Ren and Kor while pointing their spears forward.

"You f*cking beast what have you done!" One of the knights shouted at Kor.

"Why are you shouting at him? He wasn't the one who did that, I did it." Ren spoke while shrugging his shoulders. The two knights were about to respond when they suddenly lost consciousness as well.

"Sir Ren you said you wouldn't attack."

"I agreed that I wouldn't kill them and I didn't, but I never said I wouldn't attack them." As Kor was about to respond, the knight that left to alert the others returned with a battalion of knights. When the knight saw his companions down on the ground he shouted at Kor.

"You f*cking beast, what have you done to them?!"

"Seriously every single one of you, why do all of you assume that it was this guy that did it? Well anyway, that doesn't really matter, so is any one of you willing to talk and take us to your leader?"

"Huh, what the f*ck are you saying you filthy brat? Why would we allow someone like you to meet our leader?"

"You guys keep on speaking curse words are you sure you guys are knights and not thugs?" Ren approached the battalion of knights.

...

It took Valdel, Mir, and Lara a few more minutes to arrive at the Temple of the Goddess of Light. The moment they arrived they saw a chaotic scene of civilians running away, and a pile of unconscious knights on the ground right in front of the entrance to the Temple. In the middle of that was a sighing Ren and a distraught Kor.
