Hiro who finished reading the diary entry marveled at its implications. It chronicled the thoughts and findings of what seemed to be a researcher during the era of demons. Dius Valorious, Tian Alabarda, and Leonidas Dominii were spoken of in passing with the last one even writing a line as a joke.

As he called the author a woman, the only one to come to mind was Effrin Gracyeanor. According to Rilu, the era of demons ended twenty-five years after their arrival. This diary page detailed the exploits of the transmigrators who Dius called the "Saviors" after the first ten years.

There were a lot of things not said in the message yet appeared all the same. One could be said to be the silent resolution of will to fight the tyranny of the demons. From civilians, they needed to bear arms to fix the wrongs of Valorious. Hiro couldn't even begin to think how cruel the land became when the author called humanity nothing more than livestock and toys.

Even with all that, the most critical and important piece would definitely be the beginnings of the Calibers. Unlike what Rilu and the historians theorized, the calibers were not created from a wish. They were the original powers three of the four transmigrators had.

Thus it could be said that everyone having Aura, Mana, and Spirit carried the legacy of the Saviors. Hiro wanted to learn more about his predecessors. Unfortunately, he only had one diary entry and it wasn't even the first.

"Still, reading about their exploits makes them more human and relatable. Dius exhibited severe white-knight syndrome, Leo appeared goofy as hell and Effrin appeared analytical while being a tad bit too uptight. Only Tian lacked characterization."

Hito felt his worries eased with what he just learned. Just like him, the Saviors were not far off perfect existences, they had quirks and personalities. Just knowing they struggled similarly to him made Hiro's other missions seem light in comparison.

He only had to kill one, in contrast, they took down seventy-two that even resurrected when killed. Remembering the description of the quest, Hiro then noticed his map now had 8 other markers all over it,

"I guess, these are the last known locations of each savior. Looks like the girls and I will be going on a road trip."

While a lot of things needed to be checked, the man felt stifled as he remained in the cabin, Hiro intended to just wing it and learn the other stuff as he traveled with his wives.

"Ah right, System confirm the location of wife targets."

- Alert: No Wife targets known. The host has yet to meet any individual. Request denied. -

".. Hmm, I need to remember Hiroyuki and Hiroto are different people. Whatever, they should be in the capital right? Let's look for anyone else and get it from there. Oh right, I am the heavenly sword."

- Alert: [Eternity Armament] equipped. User Authenticating. -

".. Hmm, last time it cleared due to [Iron Will], then you mean the rank [E] skill of [Heart of a Savior] is [Insanity]?"historical

Unable to hold in his laughter, Hiro started chucking loudly. The absurdity of it all. The system recognized that Saviors were people who choose moral excellence over logical thinking. Thus they needed to be insane first and foremost.

"HAHAHAHAHA, indeed what could characterize a hero better than those who are insane?!"

After a few more moments Hiro finally calmed down and patted the only weapons he had at the moment, four 15-cm steak knives.

No matter what he found outside. The reincarnator had both a goal to strive for, and people to protect. The time for words ended, and now the time for action is imminent.

In order to return to the embrace of his family. In order to prepare for the coming calamity. In order to find out the truth of this world. Hiroyuki Mitsurugi's journey began once more.

————

After stepping out of the cabin the sounds of the forest enveloped Hiro. The air was damp and humid. Like the rainforests, the earth had the same wet color of dark brown.

The cabin disappeared like an illusion once Hiro closed the door. Similar to burning his boat, the option to again hide in the cabin vanished. Hiro now lived and died based on his actions in the next few hours.

Excited at the prospect of a new adventure and meeting his family once again, Hiro tried to determine where on the map the capital resided. His map had the "fog of war" covering the whole area he had yet to discover.

Remembering that the Dominii took south of the continent, Hiro traveled opposite the N symbol on his map. While moving he noted the kinds of trees and plants he passed by, hopefully, he would be able to find nuts or berries or something.

After hours of wandering the sun started to set and Hiro still failed to find the forest exit. Luckily he found a stream, of water. The reincarnator waited to see if birds and animals used it to confirm it was safe.

Using [Farsight] and [Night Vision], Hiro now had built-in binoculars and NV goggles in his eyes. With nothing to do while heading south, the Man studied the new four secondary limit skills as well as his main one.

All of them were essentially the ultimate forms of his original skills to summarize.

1. [Strength Derived from Pride] [C] became [Heart's Dogma] [SSS] the biggest difference he noticed was his reality slots increased to nine, and rearming no longer needed charges but used 500 SP instead.

2. [Sight Beyond Vision] [C] became [Reverie Beyond Hope] [SSS], the number of abilities granted both active and passive skills all related to the eyes. The man felt like a superhero as he now had x-ray vision, night vision, infrared, and even microscopic vision.

The most OP would have to be the ability to "throw" his eyes like a drone. In terms of passives, his eyes would see through illusions and were no longer a weak point as supposedly his eyeballs were now as hard as his bones.

3. [Wrath of the Vengeful] [B] evolved to [Integrity of the Faithful] [SSS], the biggest difference lay in that the skill no longer only aided offensively. [Mark of Vengeance] remained, but he now also had [Mark of Protection]. The skills evolution started with hatred and then rose to the ability to protect one's people.

As Hiro imagined using this skill to safeguard his wives he liked it the most. Lastly Husband's Loyalty [SSS], the ultimate version of Beauty's Bane [D] turned him into a eunuch to every other woman aside from his designated wives. Bonuses would be granted to his loyalty to them.

The man never forgot the promises he made In his last life. When they reunite, he would strip them bare, makes them his, and relish their bodies for a week until he let them leave his side.

Incidentally, the reason he liked [Integrity of the Faithful] also related to his women. Its highest form of use granted the ability to "transfer injuries" from the defense targets to himself. While its second highest application at [SS] came in the form of healing his wounds in battle, in exchange for increasing the pain he needed to endure.

The skill effectively turned him into a mobile hospital, to bear the pain of others and protect them. The notion that his wive's injuries could be transferred to him, pleased his overprotective instinct greatly.

He then got the epiphany that wouldn't that mean he could heal his wives back to whole health? Shouldn't removing curses, and regenerating skin, organs or entire limbs be possible?

The more the reincarnator thought about it the more it seemed so. Back to the present, Hiro ended his reverie as large figures approached the stream. The man resolved to keep the food he had as a last option. Thus hunting game for supplies became a necessity.

Luckily inventory seemed to stop time, so keeping the meat from spoiling should not be an issue. As an experiment, he took a stone and rubbed it to add some heat and then stored it. When he took the stone out four hours later the heat still lingered. Normally the heat would dissipate seconds after he stopped rubbing.

One of the wolves looked towards the sky directly at Hiro. Right now the man sat on top of a tree looking over the stream, if there were any predators who frequented this place, they would normally base their area around the bodies of water.

Similar to humans, access to water drove the placement of towns. Animals were not any different. And soon enough Hiro found his game a small pack of wolves appeared. While the pack only comprised less than a dozen wolves size wise they were as large as Lions.

"Okay, time to party. Let's do this."

As excitement made his blood boil, the reincarnator lost all sense of hesitation and as a monster unleashed, Hiro leaped for the Alpha wolf armed with nothing but two steak knives.
