The Adventures of an Overpowered Knight in Another World Chapter 2- Status Window

'Is this really me?' He murmured as he gazed into the mirror.

Golden curls in short waves draped over his shoulders, paired with a striking visage, defined contours, and eyes of mismatched hues. Beyond that, his stature reached impressive heights with an athletic form, boasting firm and sculpted musculature.

'Woah, did I cross 6 foot 3?'

At the moment, light blue pants and a relaxed shirt clothed him. The absence of wrinkles or folds in his attire suggested careful tending by others.

'That aside, what were those words in my head? [Curse of the Demon Lord]? Is this why the body was in such a bad shape? Then what about the others?'

As Reinhardt concentrated intently on the phrases echoing in his mind, streams of text began materializing before his eyes.

[Ruler of Light's Eternal Vitality]—

Astonishment filled Reinhardt; this must be among the extraordinary gifts from Dioanax. It proved overwhelmingly potent. And the rest?

[Lord of Divine Wrath's Indomitable Spirit]—

Reinhardt gave a nod of understanding—this power had enabled him to shatter the Demon Lord's curse. Relief washed over him; thankfully, he had demanded such supreme capabilities prior to his reincarnation into this realm. To realize he bore the demon lord's curse right from the start felt deeply foreboding.

'The Demon Lord huh, it's like your classic cliché fantasy. Well, at least I know my end goal. Hehe, the worrisome things aside, it's time for the big reveal.'

Excitement sparked as Reinhardt clapped his hands together. Adhering to familiar tropes, he expected to call out [Status] and summon a display before him.

True to the genre's expectations, the realm responded without fail. A gleaming golden panel unveiled his status interface right in front of him.

Woah, look at all that. Overwhelmed by the splendor of his status display, Reinhardt found himself speechless for a moment. He had indeed requested godlike skills, yet this level of extravagance bordered on insanity.

His attributes screamed imbalance, brimming with an array of titles, skills, and singular powers. Every entry dazzled so profoundly that Reinhardt scarcely knew how to process them. Cheats—that label fit perfectly.

'Although I said it myself that I need skills that would allow me to power creep the Demon Lord's army... but this is...Kuhahaha.'

Far from dissatisfaction, Reinhardt felt profound thanks to Dioanax for granting these exceptional boons—who wouldn't rejoice in such dominance? Only now did the reality hit him: true reincarnation and a divine encounter. Back then, grief over his past life's hardships had clouded his demeanor, or his inherent respect might have tempered that bold address to a deity. Fortunately, Dioanax possessed a benevolent disposition.

Reinhardt shuddered at the alternative scenarios.

'Phew, after all things said and done, I received an extraordinary reward. I want to try out my abilities as soon as possible but I guess I should wait until I am outside. That said, why is no one here? Given by the size and extravagance of this castle, the owner of this body should have been quite rich. So why is no one here taking care of me?'

Clearing his throat with a cough, Reinhardt then projected his voice forcefully.

[Is someone there]

Owing to this skill, his utterance boomed far beyond his intent, sending tremors through the castle via his sacred aura.

[Voice of Providence]-

Soon after, the chamber door burst open, admitting a throng of maids.

Upon beholding Reinhardt upright in their midst, their gazes widened in unison, as though encountering a specter. Moments later, tears cascaded down their faces, and they collapsed to the ground in sobs.

What prompted such an outburst? Why did these women weep upon his sight? As these questions surfaced, a torrent of the body's original recollections and details surged into his consciousness.

With the aid of his skill, he swiftly organized the influx without strain. It emerged that he served as a Divine Paladin within the Kingdom of Solaris, one of its mere three Level Ten warriors. Additionally, he stood as the duke family's lone successor and commanded the knight order known as the Temple of Light. The servants before him belonged to Duke Arcknight's household.

'My lord, you have... woken up. This is a miracle of the gods. Truly, this is the best blessing the gods could have given us.'

Anastasia, the chief maid, brushed away her tears before lunging into his arms. She clung fiercely, extolling the gods with fervent repetition.

Her dramatic response stemmed from a straightforward cause: years prior, during a crusade against the Demon Lord's Twelve Heavenly Kings, grievous injuries and a formidable curse had left him in a deep coma, confined to his bed ever since.
