Damned 13th Regression – 194
by Jessie@AFNCC
<Regression number 13 is damn right, episode 194>
As the self-immolation disappeared Joo Gong-hyeok’s vision changed.
The location is near the power plant.
It was not far from the place where Wolf Heart Gonghyeok risked his life to intercept the great army.
“omg!”
“That can’t be….”
“that’s right! That bastard! “Of course!”
The voices of shocked humans were heard.
Joo Gong-hyeok’s appearance was neither a wolf nor a demon king.
‘One two three.’
I counted the numbers.
I heard a cry of fear that I had heard so many times in the past.
“Joo Gong-hyeok has appeared!”
“The missing Joo Gong-hyeok intervened on the 43rd floor!”
“Contact the main unit immediately!”
Joo Gong-hyeok floating in the sky looked down.
The number is approximately 3000 people.
It was a separate unit away from the main unit.
When the hunters cowered in fear.
Only one man looked up at Joo Gong-hyeok without moving a muscle.
“Joo Gong-hyeok.”
A hunter whose entire body is covered in scorching flames.
A man who forgot his name and was eaten by the avatar.
‘Surt’ of the giant city asked.
“Where is the Ymir you took away?”
Ymir is the owner and strongest person of the giant city.

Surtr who was second in command had no choice but to find him.
Additionally the two of them were being eaten by the avatar.
Joo Gong-hyuk chuckled.
“Let me tell you about Ymir. But before that send your troops.”
“You can’t do that. “We are chasing a beastman woman.”
“Get bitten.”
Clud-clack–
The knees of the hunters present were forced to bend.
The pressure coming down from the sky bent my head as if it would break and I supported the sky with my back and shoulders.
The mighty gravity of Jecheon Daeseong weighed them down.
Joo Gong-hyeok landed on Surt whose soles were dug into the ground.
“She is my prey.”
“…”
Surt coolly watched Joo Gong-hyeok.
I felt an uneasy feeling of speculation inside me.
Surtur was not human.
It is a mythical monster covered in human skin.
Gonghyuk twitched the corners of his mouth coolly for the first time in a long time.
“I guess it’s a little annoying because your name is the personification of destruction. “Shall we at least say hello to each other?”
Suit slowly straightened his bent waist.
His soft red hair glowed white.
* * *
bang!!
Ki Su-ah broke the milky-white wall of the temple and hid himself.
Like the power plant there were dungeons and historical sites throughout the 43rd floor.
This temple was one of those places.
“Haha haha.”
I was hit once more by Surtur’s ability ‘Scorching World’.
Because of the burn the more I ran the more my wound hurt.
‘Did Wolfheart escape safely?’
Gonghyuk stopped the chase alone.
Gisua came close and waited for him before encountering humans.
It was a separate unit that decided to take a detour after failing to break through the canine monster Wolf Heart.
The leader of the separate unit is ‘Surtur the Giant of Destruction’.
Among the millions of humans with the greatest destructive power he was one of the strongest.
Kugugoong!
The ceiling of the temple trembled from the impact.

“what?”
She focused her senses.
The walls of the temple heated up to a high temperature and a blazing fire could be felt beyond the walls.
A loud sound was heard that shook the heavens and earth.
As time passed she was startled.
“Are the humans retreating?”
Her sensitive senses felt the sound of footsteps moving away and vibrations.
Additionally there is a sign of someone walking around the ruins.
Quaaaang!
The stone wall crumbled and dust exploded.
A man emerged from the dust.
Ki Soo-ah who had taken a defensive stance gently opened her eyes.
“Wolf heart?”
Charred gray fur.
Wearing armor soaked in broken barbed wire he lightly kicked up the dust.
“Did you wait?”
“you….”
‘How do you know I’m here?’
Before I could finish speaking Gonghyeok cut me off.
“A jewel hung around my neck. That way you can know where everything is. and….”
Patter-
Six heads rolled on the floor.
Ki Soo-ah’s body stiffened.
Joo Gong-hyeok counted the numbers.
“Twelve.”
It was the supply and demand of Seo-sin (鼠神) Sobaek and his legitimate children.
“ah….”
“The promised hunt is over shaman.”
Gonghyeok knelt in front of Gisua and showed respect.
“The West tribe paid the price for insulting the Dog tribe with the heads of twelve of their enemies. Although I was unable to take down the heads of the three animals I think it was my ancestors’ help. Shaman thank your ancestors for their kindness and give thanks to the wolves in the sky.”
Kang!
The barbed wire crossed and sparks flew.
At that sound Ki Su-ah came to his senses.
“With this the pride of the dog race and the righteousness of Gisua the wolf-toothed shaman were preserved.”
“…”
Ki Soo-ah raised her head and saw Gong-hyeok.
He hunted Sobaek and his sons alone.
I single-handedly stopped tens of thousands of humans and Gishin tribes.
He once again saved himself from being caught in a ruse.
Only he tried to regain the pride of the canine family that had fallen to the ground.
“Who are you?”
I don’t understand.
That’s why I felt a deep sense of awe.
“If you’re so strong why are you helping me?”
“I told you that when we first met.”
He smiled showing his molars.
“I am the guardian deity of the dog race.”
A jade bead hung around her neck.
‘Wolf Jade’ glowed faintly.
Ugh-
The beads tremble as if being pulled by something.
The power of the orb was directed towards him.
‘This…’
It was a familiar phenomenon to Ki Soo-ah.
Wolf Jade always reacted like this to Sol the guardian spirit who lived with her.
Joo Gong-hyeok looked at Ki Soo-ah’s faintly shining chest and shrugged his shoulders.
“I got caught. It’s late but I’ll introduce it again. “I am the successor of Gio the guardian spirit beast of the dog race a thousand-year-old ally…”
I saw it in Ki Soo-ah’s eyes.
The translucent horn on Gonghyeok’s head was shining and the rainbow-colored auspicious energy wave that Sol had felt flowed from the horn.
“This is Gonghyeok the guardian spirit of the nine generations.”
Finally some of her doubts were answered.
Ki Soo-ah who had been silent opened her mouth.
“all right. Then let’s do it like this.”
She crossed the barbed wire to show respect.
“Wolf Heart Gonghyuk. Your trophy is the crowning achievement of a canine race! As a shaman I will honor the souls of my deceased family and express my gratitude to Gonghyeok the ‘Proud Gray Wolf’! In addition… our ancestors! “Please forgive me for my rudeness in holding the ritual without taking a bath!”
She slowly approached and gently licked Gonghyeok from the nape of his neck to his ear and then reverently crossed the barbed wire toward the sky.
“Descendants of Gitan the god of ancestral rites! A shaman with wolf teeth! Gisua delivers a new wolf head to the ancestors! His name is Gonghyuk! courage! Spirit! Jimo! He is someone who is capable of leading the wolves! “I believe that our ancestors must have noticed that you have proven yourself with numerous trophies!”
Kang! Kang! Kang!
She struck the barbed wire three times in the air.
“Wolves of heaven! Hear the howl of the new wolf head!”
“Whoop.”
Gonghyuk and Ki Suah took a deep breath.
Awwwwwwww————!
The stone walls of the temple trembled resonating with the howls of the two wolves.
Surtur’s detachment which was retreating must have suddenly turned its head at the howling.
Ki Su-ah unfastened the barbed wire and bowed.
“I ask our ancestors to please take care of the twentieth wolf head and its descendants.”
The Wolf Head ritual has ended.
Gonghyuk spoke calmly.
“Wolf-headed Gonghyeok. “I will lead the group so as not to show my ancestors and shaman that I am lacking.”
Ki Su-ah solemnly bowed and looked at Gong-hyuk with calm eyes.
“I don’t think it was a coincidence that you came to see me.”
“That is correct.”
“You probably saw it when you came home. “Another guardian spirit.”
She paused and chose her words.
“Do you want to take Sol with you? “What did you want to do that you came to me for?”
“hmm. “It’s not a story that will harm you.”
‘maybe. Or else.’
Honestly I don’t care what her position will be later.
What is important to Gonghyeok is not horsemen or guardian spirits but the ‘future of humanity’.
The lives and fate of the beast people had not been a consideration for Joo Gong-hyeok for hundreds of years.
“I will teach you. “The Confirmation Act will be re-created and you will face a new future with your guardian spirit by your side.”
“A new future?”
“Recovering the sky of the guardian spirit.”
Joo Gong-hyeok promised that to 『Hybrid Geo』.
Geo who has a high sense of pride has no reason whatsoever to help power in the destruction of the beastman race.
‘I was trying to create a half-formed guardian spirit with “Avatar Predation”…’
As Joo Gong-hyeok’s purpose changed on the third basement level the plan also changed.
It is a plan that can be carried out even with 『Guardian God Geo』 in mind.
Gonghyeok spoke sweet confident words to Ki Soo-ah.
“Recovering the sky of the guardian spirit. And the Dog people will be rewarded for the pride and generosity they showed a thousand years ago.”
“A thousand years ago?”
The Dog people had names and stories that were passed down from generation to generation.
‘A thousand years of incision.’
Ki Su-ah didn’t know what that meant.
However I clearly felt that a new wind different from before had begun to blow.
* * *
“Hehehehehehehe!”
The tiger-headed Jian laughed heartily and repeatedly patted Gien’s back.
“Well done! Wolves! You performed better than I expected! “I will not forget your exploits!”
Everyone including the tiger head welcomed the dogs who retreated as they had seen.
Kien the leader of the group was dumbfounded.
“Hey self-defense. “What kind of performance are you talking about?”
“The activity at the power plant. I’m sorry for not being able to make improvements right away. There’s nothing we can do because we’re at war!
“yes?”
Despite Gien’s reaction the tiger head nodded and laughed.
“Demon Dragon Lord Ajidahaka also promised a great reward saying that the tide of the war will be turned thanks to you!”
“Yeah….”
Gien’s mind became confused.
‘Activities at the power plant? Was there anything worth it?’
Although they fought desperately against the pouring Gishin-Human alliance.
They were defeated.
And ran away.
‘Could it be that Gonghyeok was highly regarded for stopping the human army alone?’
But that’s just one day.
Moreover the army that blocked it was not the main human army led by ‘Christina the Destroyer’ but three city corps equivalent to 1/3 of the human race.
Although it was a great achievement for an individual it was not a great feat that the world of war could care about.
‘What on earth? ‘What the heck?’
Regardless of whether Gien was sweating or not the self-defense fighter Jian left the tent with a big smile on his face.
Gien secretly spoke to Tiger Claw Huguan who was sitting next to him.
“Why is Hosin so excited?”
“hmm? That’s because the Ken and Seo clans have done great deeds isn’t that true?”
“What kind of merit is that…”
Hu Guan asked puzzled.
“Mr. Gien. Even now Gi Su-ah of the Dog clan and So-baek the Seo-sin are guarding the power plant. On the contrary they are sending reinforcements here including Gien. “Isn’t it completely Mahayana?”
“yes?”
Gien listened to the explanation in a daze and shouted in a hurry.
“It’s a great victory! It’s a shame but the power plant we were protecting has fallen. “The generator was broken.”
“what!? “The power plant has fallen?”
The latter was astonished and waved his hands.
“Mr. Gien! Please don’t make jokes like that. “If my grandfather had heard he would have been amazed.”
“It’s real! It’s real! “I don’t know what misunderstanding everyone has but we…”
“Whoa~”
Hu Guan sighed and pulled Gien’s collar.
Hu Guan dragged Qian out of the tent and pointed at the golden dimensional portal with his thick fingernail.
“Then what is that?”
“yes?”
“The dimensional portal continues to be recharged. “The Demon Dragon Grand Duke told us that the summoning of the Demon Grand Duke is in its final stages.”
“Huh?”
Gien looked at the dimensional portal which had begun to create a bluish portal.
I clearly saw the generator being destroyed with my own eyes.
However the dimension transfer door was operating normally.
Hu Guan let go of Qian’s collar.
“Stop talking nonsense and get some rest. “The final battle.”
Hu Guan looked down into the cliff-like canyon.
There was an entrance to the Twilight Ruins that no one had accessed yet.
Northern Dynasty and Southern Dynasty.
Gishins and humans.
At full power boom! If they stick together neither side will be safe.
The three races are fighting hard but if one side backs out and suffers little damage or preserves its elite strength it is certain that it will suffer a big loss in the next fight over 40 floors.
“I’m not sure but if our demon archduke is summoned victory is within reach.”
Hu Guan’s harsh eyes turned towards the enemies across the canyon.
“If there is a difference in power in an instant defeat is inevitable. Even if you confront them head-on the damage will be great so they’ll probably run away. Then the Twilight Legion is ours.”
“…”
Despite Hu Guan’s rant Kien was unable to continue speaking.
‘How on earth is this going on?’
What was happening now was completely beyond his understanding.
