A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 103



Episode 103

‘King of Swords Bernas.’

Zeke was startled when he saw Bernas suddenly appear.

Even in my previous life I had heard of the fame of Sword King Bernas.

It was surprising that one of the strongest men on the continent a giant among giants had shown up here in person.

As Bernas tried to take Carus away Abel asked with a cold sweat.

“Sir Be Bernas. Where are you taking the prince?”

Then Bernas looked at Abel and opened his mouth.

“I don’t know.”

With that one word Abel could ask no more.

That was the majesty of the Draker Black Knight.

Even if all the knights here rushed in they couldn’t defeat Bernas alone.

Karus glanced at Zeke.

He seemed to be asking what was going on.

But even Zeke had no idea how things were going.

Then Kali Draker drew her sword and stepped back.

“The Silver Knights will follow the orders of Sir Bernas.”

Seeing that Kali backed off first it seemed like Bernas wasn’t the enemy.

Zeke nodded toward Karus.

Only then did Carus feel relieved and speak to Bernas.

“Sir Bernas. My name is Carus Nerva Constantine the fourth prince of the Roman Empire. Please guide me safely.”

Bernas glanced at Carus and gestured to him.

“Follow me.”

Karus gave a brief greeting to Zeke and then followed behind Bernas.

No one moved from their seats until the Sword King leisurely walked out of the terminal.

Abel clenched his teeth.

Then he turned his head towards Zeke.

“Knights of the Red Lion catch that guy now.”

It seemed like they thought they had to capture Zeke alive to find out who was behind it.

Kali also shouted.

“Arrest the suspect according to the family’s orders!”

The knights of both sides clashed with Zig between them.

Pachin!

In the middle Abel and Kali clashed with swords.

“Kali do not stop the righteous vengeance!”

“Are you planning to disobey the family’s orders?”

During the chaos Zeke created an opening.

He used flashbangs and dissonance again.

Kkieeeeing!

A huge flash of light enveloped the entire terminal.

The knights of the Red Lion Order including Abel came to their senses first and chased after Zeke perhaps because it was their second time experiencing it.

But Zeke was nowhere to be seen.

Zeke who had already escaped the terminal with his stealth skill immediately summoned Bucephalos and flew into the air.

“Before I go I’ll leave you a gift.”

Zeke attacked the terminal with Bucephalus’ thunderbolt.

Pfft pfft pfft!

Dozens of lightning bolts rained down on the terminal.

The knights and soldiers guarding the perimeter were struck by lightning and fell down foaming at the mouth.

Zeke smiled with satisfaction and drove Bucephalus towards Duke Graham’s castle.

* * *

“Zeke!”

After finishing up work at the terminal Karl Lee came into the Graham residence and looked for Zeke.

Zeke was hiding in a cell in the tower where Angelina was imprisoned in the past.

“Sister Carly.”

As Zeke tried to get up Carly stopped him.

“Okay. Just lie down.”

Because of the healing factor there wasn’t really any pain but since he was extremely tired from the long journey Zeke decided to just lie down as Carly had suggested.

Zeke asked Carly.

“The Sword King suddenly appeared. Is Karus okay?”

Then Carly chuckled.

“Ask him yourself.”

Suddenly someone ran in from behind.

“Zeke!”

To my surprise Karus came into the room.

“Carus?”

Zeke looked at Carly in surprise.

“In fact Sir Bernas is my teacher.”

“yes?”

The fact that Sword King Bernas was Kali Draker’s master was something that was not known even in the previous life.

Carly said with a smile.

“The teacher is a bit shy and doesn’t like to reveal himself.”

The words swordsman and shyness didn’t really go together but that didn’t matter.

Zeke nodded looking at the safe Karus.

“Anyway I guess I feel relieved.”

“Yes. It’s all thanks to you.”

“Did you contact Payne? I didn’t think you’d come so quickly.”

“Zayed had already informed me that he would bring Peynan to Jason. So I personally led the warship to meet him.”

Zeke was amazed at Kali’s quick judgment.

Payn went over to Kali’s warship explained the whole story and quickly moved to her territory.

Kali sent knights to the Republic of Dorta to find Zeke but he had already fled south.

She had been waiting anxiously since losing contact with Zeke but when she heard that Abel was heading to Panstars she followed him right away.

In the meantime he also showed thoroughness by asking his teacher Bernas just in case.

Carly said with a regretful expression.

“Unfortunately the footage that Payne brought was damaged and could not be used as evidence.”

“I see. The storage device itself is so weak…”

Although they missed a golden opportunity to immediately drag Abel away from Drake the mission was a success since they saved Karus.

“But how did Abel’s side know that I came to Panstars? We came through Ishtar’s portal.”

At those words Carly said with a serious expression.

“There are two possible assumptions. One is that there is a spy on Abel’s side on Ishtar’s side. The other is that there may be a spy on your side.”

After hearing Carly’s words Zeke thought deeply.

‘Is there a spy between Simon and Boris?’

However given the circumstances it was nearly impossible for either of them to tell Abel their destination separately.

The wrinkles between Zeke’s eyebrows deepened.

‘There might be another way. I should look into it.’

Since Siemens of Wisdom was attached to him he was able to find out Zig’s destination in an extraordinary way.

Then Karus who was standing next to him spoke to Zeke.

“Zeke I intend to go and stay in Kali’s territory for the time being. I will never forget the favor you have shown me during that time.”

Zeke patted Karus on the shoulder.

“Carus. If you go to my sister’s territory the assassins will not come. Never die and be sure to live.”

They were two people who had been through a lot of hardships and had become quite close to each other.

A tearful Karus left the room and prepared to go straight to Kali’s territory.

Zeke asked Carly.

“Are you leaving right now?”

“Yes. If Abel or the Empire finds out that Karus is here they will try to assassinate him by any means necessary. I think it would be best to get to a safe place as soon as possible.”

If the Silver Knights were to move directly as escorts there would at least be no need to worry about attacks.

She said taking a step closer to Zeke.

“You did a great job Zeke. I’ll make sure to reward you well for your mission.”

“I’ll be waiting sis.”

After everyone else left Zig was left alone and was finally able to rest comfortably.

* * *

“Ugh. It’s been a long long journey.”

As we were moving with Karus the year changed and Zeke was now eighteen years old.

He lay in bed organizing his inventory and checking his karma points.

[Karma points held: 2710 points]

Looking at the karma points Zeke was troubled.

“Hmm I think it would be good to gradually unlock the third level of Dragon Clan skills.”

The reason why Zeke was concerned about the dragon tribe skill was because of the ‘Spiritual Art’ that was still locked.

The Honshinki he had learned in his previous life was an imperfect technique for a human like Zeke to master.

But when I thought about what I had heard from Caesar I thought that if I could use the dragon skill the magic of speech I might be able to unleash my full power.

To unlock the third level of the Dragon Clan skill 1000 Karma Points were required.

“A thousand points. It’s a big burden but if I can lift the spell….”

Following the Elemental Sword another new secret weapon was born.

Zig spent a thousand points to unlock level 3 of the Dragon Clan skill.

[Unlocks Dragon Clan Skill Level 3.]

[The Dragon Clan skill has reached level 3 and you have acquired the qualification of a ‘Dragonman.’]

[A sign of tolerance appears in the eyes.]

[Bahamut’s Heart Seal is partially released due to the qualification of Yong-in. The current compression seal level is 75%.]

[The Dragon’s Eye and Dragon’s Majesty skills grow.]

[The Dragon’s Eye and Dragon’s Majesty skills grow to expert level.]

[Locked eloquence skills are unlocked.]

Zeke cheered as he saw the message floating around.

“The spell has finally been lifted!”

Zig immediately checked the Dragon Clan skill status window.

Dragon Skills (3 levels unlocked): Dragon’s Eye (Expert) / Dragon’s Majesty (Expert) / Gluttony (Expert) / Spirituality (Beginner) / Dragon’s Ring (Expert) / Dragon’s Claw (Expert)

It was found that all the level 1 skills had been changed to expert and that the eloquence ability had also been unlocked.

“But what are the qualifications and marks of Yongin?”

At that moment something strange felt in Zeke’s left eye.

“Ugh!”

Zeke woke up staggering his eyes wide open.

It was as if another eye was growing inside my eye.

“Eww!”

Even healing factor couldn’t stop the pain.

Fortunately the pain in my eyes soon stopped.

Zik whose whole body was drenched in cold sweat went to the mirror and checked his eyes.

“What is this?”

His left eye was glowing golden.

Moreover the golden eyes had changed to resemble those of a reptile.

Zeke realized what the sign of tolerance was.

‘Oh my god. Did your eyes turn into a dragon’s?’

With his left eye turned into a dragon’s eye he could clearly see things he normally couldn’t.

He could distinguish temperatures with his eyes and could also see through objects.

It felt as if the Dragon’s Eye skill was always activated.

‘There’s so much information out there that my head hurts. I guess I need some practice.’

The moment I thought that my eyes returned to normal.

It seemed that Zeke could change his eyeballs into dragon eyes at will.

You can use the Dragon’s Eye’s abilities naturally without having to use the Dragon’s Eye skill separately.

‘Good. It’ll be useful once I get used to it.’

Zeke decided to take his time getting used to the signs of tolerance and try using eloquence next.

“Cut.”

I used both the Honshinki and the Eumsul to raise my spirits.

A sharp energy emerged from Zeke’s hand.

Shhh!

I swung my hand at the table and it split in two much more cleanly than if I had cut it with my sword.

Zeke looked at the perfectly cut table and laughed.

“Success so easily…”

The perfect demonstration of one’s soul that the master had shown in a previous life.

I wasn’t able to completely recreate it until now but I was able to fill in the incomplete pieces through elocution.

There was absolutely no aftereffect when using different letters in succession.

Zeke made a dumbfounded face but then smiled with satisfaction.

“There’s no problem at all with using single spells. If I can use double spells here too….”

Zig raised his hand took a deep breath and slowly unleashed his spirit.

“Cut.”

Kkieeeeing!

A tearing sound rang out from Zeke’s ears.

“Eww!”

Zik couldn’t stand the pain and just sat down.

If you force yourself to use the power of your soul your soul will be directly affected.

Even the healing factor couldn’t heal the damage to his soul so Zeke barely managed to crawl onto the bed panting for breath.

“Damn… double is still a long way off.”

My previous life’s master was capable of even triple spells.

The master who used the Triple Spell’s full power was truly invincible.

No demon could last even ten seconds in front of the master.

“I wonder if that monstrous master is still in the forest.”

He was one of those people I really didn’t want to meet in this life.

Zig lay down on the bed and opened the status window for the third stage of his Dragon Clan skill.

-Dragon Clan Skill Level 3-

Dragon’s Sense (Locked) / Dragon’s Breath (Locked)

3000 Karma Points required to unlock skill level 4

Step 4 required 3000 karma points by jumping several times.

‘Stage 4 will probably be possible much later.’

Zig read the description of the unlocked dragon skill.

―Introducing the 3rd stage of Dragon Clan skills―

Dragon’s Senses: The keen dragon’s senses allow you to see beyond time and space into the realm of existence. (500 points required to unlock)

Dragon’s Breath: Concentrates the energy of nature and exhales a powerful breath to sweep away enemies in one go. (Requires 800 points to unlock)

Zeke pondered as he read the explanation.

The current points I have are 1710.

If you unlock both Dragon Sense and Dragon Breath you’ll only have 410 points left.

“Hmm. Both seem like good skills. What should I do?”

Among the Dragon Clan skills there wasn’t a single one that was useless.

Zig who had been worrying got up.

“Okay. I’ve decided.”
