A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 133



Episode 133

“How about that?”

Zeke was taken aback when he heard Princess Arina’s words.

It was a magic book of light that I received by opening a random box. I couldn’t figure out how she knew that I was coming to give it to her since no one would know that I had it.

Then the princess said to Clone.

“Clone I would like to talk to you and Mr. Zig for a moment.”

Cloone bowed her head politely to the princess and went out taking Felix and Liam who were standing behind her.

Zeke still looked at Princess Arina with an expression of disbelief.

She opened her mouth slowly.

“Laura Agamemnon. Do you know her?”

Zeke was a little dazed as he had never imagined that he would hear his mother’s name from Princess Arina.

‘What the heck.’

I had a feeling that there would be some kind of connection between Luverne and her mother ever since the talk about the healer class came up but I didn’t know it would be mentioned so directly.

Princess Arina was the first to continue the story.

“Laura Agamemnon is our benefactor of Luverne along with Sir Fab.”

“Laura Agamemnon is your benefactor?”

“King Fab rescued the Luverne clan who had been imprisoned in the sect 50 years ago. Of course he couldn’t save everyone…”

“So Laura Agamemnon also helped in the rescue? The timeline is wrong.”

“Laura helped us settle down in Tempel after that. She even changed our identities so that we wouldn’t be pursued by the Holy Kingdom.”

Zeke was surprised to learn that his mother was deeply involved in helping the Luverne clan.

Then suddenly I felt something strange.

“Have you ever met Laura Agamemnon Your Majesty?”

Then Arina nodded.

“I had a short but deep friendship with Laura.”

Zeke didn’t quite understand what Princess Arina was saying.

Even at a glance her appearance seemed to be similar to Zeke’s.

“Um… rude question but how old is the princess…?”

Arina covered her mouth and laughed lightly.

“Let me just say that it’s a lot more than Sir Zeke.”

Considering his age in his previous life Zeke had lived quite a long life but the princess seemed to have surpassed him.

Zig nodded slightly and returned to the main topic asking Princess Arina again.

“You still haven’t answered my question. How did you know I brought the Book of Light?”

The princess opened her mouth with a smile.

“The black-eyed savior will bring back the lost power of Luverne.”

Zeke had heard similar words before at Agamemnon’s castle.

“Could it be that Laura Agamemnon made the prophecy?”

Princess Arina nodded.

“Those were the last words Laura said to me before she left.”

Laura Agamemnon a healer class and an irregular possessed the power of prophecy.

Only then did Zeke understand how Princess Arina knew that he had brought the Book of Light.

She said looking at Zeke.

“Laura your mother was a beautiful and wonderful woman more than anyone could ever imagine. I was so glad to have such a wise and passionate person as my friend.”

“You knew that I was the son of Laura Agamemnon.”

“Because I was on the run I ended up listening to news from all over the continent. I heard that the person who lifted the curse on Castle Agamemnon was none other than a pureblood Awakened Draker with black eyes.”

Although Zeke himself was too busy to notice the continent was pouring out news about the genius knight Zeke Draker.

Zeke smiled awkwardly and took out the Book of Light from his inventory.

Then he slowly held out the magic book in front of the princess.

“This is the second half of the Book of Light.”

The princess’s eyebrows shook slightly at Zeke’s words.

“at las….”

Princess Arina reached for the magic book with trembling hands.

Then light began to flow out from the magic book.

A message appeared in Zeke’s eyes as well.

[The Book of Light confirms the mark of the successor.]

[The code has been verified.]

[The transmission ceremony begins.]

The Book of Light began to unfold with a start.

Then light began to flicker from each letter written in the magic book.

Zik looked at the transmission ceremony with curious eyes.

Soon the letters in the book began to glow and rise upward wrapping around Princess Arina’s body.

They soon transformed into light and permeated her body.

Clang! Clang!

As the pages turned all the letters came to mind and seeped into her body.

The book fell to the table with a thud as the letters on the last page turned into light and were absorbed into Princess Arina’s body.

After the ritual of transmission was over the Book of Light became a blank book with no writing on it unlike before.

‘Are we done?’

Princess Arina was breathing lightly with her eyes closed.

At that moment a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[You have successfully completed the main quest mission.]

[You have obtained the title Knight of Light as a reward.]

[You have obtained the skill Holy Fire (S-rank) as a reward.]

[You will receive the coordinates of the ‘Forgotten Temple of the Beginning’ as a reward.]

[500 Karma Points will be awarded as compensation.]

[Additional intermediate administrator system privileges are opened.]

[Item disassembly/repair function is opened in the shop.]

[Item strengthening function is unlocked in the shop.]

[Item crafting functionality is added to the shop.]

As you clear the mission various rewards pour in.

Among them Zeke looked at the name ‘Forgotten Temple of the Beginning’.

‘The Temple of the Beginning?’

It was a name I heard for the first time.

At the same time a quest window popped up.

―Main Quest Mission―

[Take the relics containing the power of the primordial to the Forgotten Temple of the Primordial. (No time limit / When you obtain all 3 relics the coordinates of the temple are automatically activated)]

[Quest Mission Reward: ???]

Zig looked dumbfounded as he suddenly saw the main quest window pop up.

‘What is this? What is the power of the beginning and what is the holy relic? And why is there a question mark on the mission reward?’

It felt clearly different from the quests I’ve done so far.

‘Let’s put this quest on hold for now. There’s a lot more to do.’

Zig decided to put the quest on hold for now and looked through the category list of the newly opened store.

-store-

1. Buy/Sell Items

2. Item disassembly/repair

3. Item Enhancement

4. Item Creation

‘There’s a 4th item crafting item added. Does that mean I can craft items myself?’

As Zeke was checking the store categories Princess Arina slowly opened her eyes.

“I finally found the second half of the magic of light. I was able to go from being a half-wizard to a full-fledged wizard. Thank you very much.”

Princess Arina’s face pure white from head to toe slightly rose and her cheeks turned pink.

“Congratulations on successfully completing the ceremony Your Highness.”

Princess Arina smiled at Zeke.

“It’s all thanks to Sir Zeke.”

After thinking about it Zeke asked Princess Arina.

“Your Majesty I would like to ask you about the healer class.”

“What are you talking about?”

“Sister Clone said that. She said that if you’re a healer class you can use light magic without divine power.”

Princess Arina nodded.

“That’s right. Light magic is a bloodline ability that is only allowed to the Lubern bloodline. In order for others to use this power they need an artifact imbued with light magic.”

“In the case of magic artifacts it is possible to use them by creating an aura but is there a reason why only light magic requires a different power called divine power?”

Princess Arina continued speaking.

“Divine power is a power different from aura or magic power. If I had to say… I would say it is a power that draws out the soul’s power through strong wishes.”

When Zeke heard the princess’s words something occurred to him.

‘If it’s the power of the soul… is it similar to the feeling of being a spirit?’

Zig used his eloquence and the mana from the interruption to unleash his full strength.

If light magic is also about calling forth the power contained in an artifact through will it definitely feels closer to aura magic than spirit magic.

Princess Arina spoke to Zeke.

“Sister Cloone said that Sir Zeke can summon light magic without divine power.”

Zeke thought for a moment and then answered.

“Yes that’s right.”

She said with a smile.

“Perhaps it could be Laura’s influence. Sir Zeke’s body may also have the qualities of a healer class.”

Fortunately Princess Arina didn’t dig any deeper.

Zik asked a new question.

“Is the healer class only available to those of the Luverne bloodline?”

Then Princess Arina tilted her head slightly and slowly opened her mouth.

“That’s what it says in the records. However considering that Laura was also a healer I think there are two things to consider. One is that a healer class can come from bloodlines other than Luverne. The other is that the Agamemnon family is a branch of the Luverne bloodline.”

Zeke was surprised to hear that.

“Are you saying that Agamemnon might be of Lubernian descent?”

“When the bloodline of Luverne lost its imperial power in the Holy Empire most of them were killed or taken to the cult but some may have escaped. It is also possible that they changed their names and continued the bloodline of Agamemnon.”

After hearing Arina’s words Zeke felt that there was some truth to what she said.

Agamemnon’s golden sword technique had many similarities to the paladin sword technique or the imperial sword technique and above all the mask of Agamemnon the family’s sacred item was an artifact exclusive to the healer class.

If Agamemnon’s ancestors were of the Luverne bloodline then the tradition of elevating the healer class to the head of the household also makes sense.

‘Did the history get lost while hiding the identity of my blood relatives for fear of being pursued by the Holy Empire?’

Laura Agamemnon Zeke’s mother may have found out about the secrets of the healer class and helped them after learning that her family’s ancestors were connected to the Luverne bloodline.

‘I didn’t know that the healer class which was thought to be cursed had such a secret.’

Even his previous master who was well-versed in ancient knowledge did not know the details of the healer class so Zeke found what Arina had told him unfamiliar and yet fascinating.

At that moment Zeke looked into Princess Arina’s eyes and said something that suddenly occurred to him.

“Come to think of it why didn’t your princess treat her eyes with healing?”

Princess Arina looked slightly surprised at Zeke’s words.

“Are you talking about a miracle?”

Zeke tilted his head at the princess’s reaction.

“I don’t know about the grand name of miracle but if you use healing you could cure your eyes so I’m curious why you just left it alone.”

Then Princess Arina said with a puzzled expression.

“Jeong Kyung Healing can only help you recover it can’t fix a blind eye or mend a cut wound. That’s literally a miracle.”

“Huh? What is that…?”

Zeke was taken aback by Arina’s words.

In his previous life he had countless burst eyeballs broken bones and severed limbs.

‘Then what was the healing I’ve done so far?’

In embarrassment Zeke spoke cautiously to Arina.

“Your Majesty could you please show me some healing?”

At Zeke’s words Princess Arina smiled and held out her hand to Zeke.

He placed his palm against Princess Arina’s hand.

At the same time a warm light emanated from her hands.

Woohoo!

The light emanating from Princess Arina’s hand seeped into Zeke’s palm.

Zeke got a similar feeling from it.

‘It seems similar to how it restores stamina when using the Curtain of Light skill.’

Certainly it seemed impossible to treat the wound at this level.

“This is healing. Even though it’s a healer class it’s impossible to completely heal wounds. Ah Laura was a little different. She was able to use healing so strong that it could heal wounds immediately.”

When I heard the explanation it was clear that the healing and power that Zeke himself used were different.

He thought about it for a moment then looked at Princess Arina and said.

“Your Highness please excuse me for a moment.”

Zig took Princess Arina’s hand and spread healing along with a wide-area buff.

Wooooow!

The strong healing power that surged from Zeke’s body was transmitted to her.

Woohoo!

Zeke could feel his power focused on Princess Arina’s eyes.

Princess Arina suddenly felt an external force flowing in and showed a bewildered expression.

But he slowly closed his eyes as he felt warmth from the strong power that was in his body.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

The waves suddenly stopped and Princess Arina slowly opened her closed eyes.

Unlike before there was a splendid light in his eyes.

She touched her eyes and shed tears.

“Whose eyes?”
