Reincarnated as the Demon King's Son

”A phantom claw? ” Aldred asked.

Mary and everyone else wore their armor and thick clothes. They picked the armor from the pile of treasure, but it didn ’t make them feel safer than before.

”Phantom claw is the beast from legends and fairy tales. Some say, no one really knows its true appearance, but that thing looks similar to what was drawn in the book. It ’s also known as Phantoma.

The adventurer and everyone else slowly walked back. Their hands trembled as their eyes stared at the beast in fear.

The beast growled. Its tentacles waving around in the air. It leaped forward and vanished.

Their eyes widened.

”Where did it go? ”

”Ahh! ”

Suddenly, a group of people was torn to shreds. They did not see it coming.

”Run! ”

They all scattered and ran. A man tried to climb down the mountain but fell because someone accidentally knocked him. A man ran on the cliff. He did not know where he would go to. He did not care as the beast could come from anywhere.

And it came, unseen, undetected, silent, and deadly. For a moment, that man saw a transparent, dark-blue claw, and he couldn ’t react as his body was cut in half. His body was then chomped, thrown into the air before it entered the mouth.

As blood spilled from its lips, the beast growled in satisfaction before setting its eyes upon Aldred and his group.

”What a beast, ” Maverick said. ”Do you think you can handle this? ”

”We cannot run away, can ’t we? ” Aldred said, hesitating.

”Running is not a wise idea. ” Mary raised her sword, taken from the pile of treasures. The soldiers all stood up with their rare quality shields, armor, and weapons.

”I have no choice then. Arise, my minions! ”

Maverick frowned as the black mist clumped out of the floor. Hideous creatures that seemed to come from darkness stepped out from the mist and knelt.

”Your command, master. ”
