A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 175
by Hectopascal(헥토파스칼 )
Episode 175
A powerful force surged through the boy’s body.
Kurururururung!
At the same time he felt a rough force that seemed to tear Zeke’s body apart.
‘Is this a bloodline ability?’
It felt completely different from the power of Dario or Bisco.
It seems that there are various types of bloodline abilities as the system does not detect this power as a curse.
Zeke took a step forward enduring the unprecedented strength the boy displayed.
Then he pointed his sword at the boy.
Ziggy opened the field of gold power.
Kugugugugugu!
A strong gravity was exerted where the boy was.
Kwajijijik!
The boy and the surrounding ground were crushed by the enormous pressure but the boy remained unharmed and stretched out his hand shouting.
“Ha! Is this all you can do? Try harder monster!”
A stronger force surged through the boy’s body.
The boy pushed away by the force of gravity that Zeke had summoned gradually came forward.
The boy reached out to Zeke.
“Get crushed!”
Kwakwakwakwa!
It felt like someone was grabbing Zeke’s body from all sides and roughly crushing it.
Fortunately Zeke who was wearing Teia’s Hersion was able to withstand the boy’s power without being affected.
‘To show this much power with bloodline abilities.’
The power of the Nostra family was felt.
The boy frowned as Zig held on to his strength.
Then he slowly began to clench his fists.

Kkwaddudduk!
A strong pressure was felt around Zeke’s body.
It felt like a giant was holding Zeke tightly in both his hands and giving him strength.
Kookookookookook!
Thanks to Teia’s Hersion and Yonglin Gap skills Zeke was able to withstand the strong pressure this time as well.
But the boy was smiling bitterly at Zeke as if he had blind faith in his own strength.
‘I’ll shatter your expectations.’
Zeke activated his Dragon Claw skill towards the boy.
Choaaaak!
Three lines of scars were carved into the boy’s body.
“Ugh!”
The boy who had let his guard down was hit by the skill and suffered a long wound from his chest to his side.
The boy stepped back clutching his bleeding wound.
“How dare this kid…”
The boy stepped back and glared at Zeke as if he couldn’t believe that he had been hurt.
Then suddenly his eyes began to turn red.
Phage crackle!
The surrounding stones slowly rose into the air. The waves of force caused them to begin to rotate violently in place.
Soon the boy pointed his finger at Zeke.
“asleep!”
Hundreds of stones floating in the air spun and flew towards Zig.
Doo doo doo doo doo doo!
Stones flew ceaselessly toward Zig.
The successive collisions with the rocks caused a cloud of dust to rise up where Zig had been.
“Haa. Haa.”
The boy came down to the ground gasping for breath as if he had used too much force.
The spot where Zig had been was a huge deep hole as if a meteor had hit.
The boy chuckled at the sight.
“Monster theme. How dare you attack me Lord Sion.”
Zion straightened his back and looked around.
“You broke everything again. You’re going to get in trouble again. You don’t know Miss.”
He slowly rose into the air.
Then he extended his hand towards the farmhouse where Zeke and his group were hiding.
As the boy turned his palm over the farmhouse completely caved in and began to collapse.
“At this point we’re all probably dead.”
Zion rose into the air again and flew somewhere.
Some time after the boy disappeared the ground beneath his feet began to shake.

Zig who had returned to his original form looked around shook off the dirt and got up.
He tilted his head as he looked at the collapsed farmhouse.
“Compared to your skills your follow-up work is too sloppy.”
If he was a pro he should have gone in checked the bodies of the enemies and hostages and erased all traces.
However a boy named Zion went back thinking that everyone was dead after destroying only the farmhouse without going through that process.
Zeke guessed that he was a secret weapon within the Nostra family only used for special purposes.
‘Normally other members of the organization would take care of the aftermath so I guess I didn’t feel the need to be thorough.’
If so other members of the Nostra Family could soon invade.
Zigg created pure fire and burned the broken An-ga.
Whoosh whoosh!
After burning all traces of Zeke and Dario he summoned Bucephalus and headed towards the bunker where Boris was hiding.
* * *
‘Phew.’
Boris who was hiding in a bunker he had built on the mountain sharpened his senses and looked outside for enemies.
A few soldiers could be heard moving up and down the mountain but they did not seem to notice the bunker and passed by and went somewhere else.
That was when.
‘Someone is approaching.’
Boris gestured nervously to Visko.
Bisco grabbed Dario with his dagger.
If they were unable to escape they would have to kill Dario and then commit suicide.
It would be better to take one’s own life than to be captured by the enemy and tortured to death.
As the two were getting nervous a signal was heard indicating that they were colleagues.
Boris confirmed that Zeke had arrived through the periscope he had installed inside the bunker.
Only then did he feel relieved and open the door.
“boss.”
Zeke entered the bunker and tapped Boris on the shoulder.
“Good job Boris.”
He spent two days wandering around leading the pursuers to different places and leaving traces.
The pursuers turned toward the eastern region after seeing the traces left by Zeke.
Zig sat down and took a breather drinking water and eating dried raisins.
After taking a short break he looked at Dario who was tied up in the corner.
“How is Dario’s condition?”
“There is no problem with his health. He made a fuss when he found out that the rescue team had come but he has been quiet since yesterday.”
Zeke got up from his seat and went towards Dario.
Dario flinched and trembled as Zeke approached.
Zig untied Dario’s gag and said:
“The Nostra family sent an interesting guy. He looked to be in his early teens and he was wearing a suit of shorts and had a bloodline ability that allowed him to move objects. He called himself Zion. Who is he?”
Dario rolled his eyes quickly.
Dario said in horror as Zeke raised his hand.
“I will tell you!”
“Who is that kid?”
Dario hesitated and then opened his mouth.
“Six o’clock.”
“Six?”
Dario nodded.
“One of the six special bloodline ability users created by the Pa family.”
“There are six of those guys?”
“That’s right.”
Zeke rested his chin on his hand and fell into thought.
The power of this guy named Zion was at least comparable to that of the Red Knight.
The presence of five more such men meant that the Nostra Family had the power of a nation.
‘And the Knight of Scorpio there.’
The mafia was rooted all over the continent and was committing all kinds of crimes.
Zeke said to Dario.
“That guy named Zion destroyed everything in Anga and left. It looks like an order came down from above to eliminate you.”
“That can’t be…”
Dario looked up at Zeke in disbelief.
Zeke shook his head with an indifferent expression.
“There’s no use looking at it that way. I’m telling the truth.”
The enemy Zig tortured him to the point of death but after the interrogation he used a healing potion to keep him alive and in good health. However the Family had even mobilized a special ability user to kill him.
Zeke asked Dario.
“Why would you use a special ability user to kill you? Do you have any information that could be fatal to the organization?”
Then Dario who had an uncharacteristically wounded expression on his face clenched his molars and said.
“I can’t say.”
Zeke understood what Dario meant by the nuance of his words.
‘It looks like something is banned.’
Members of the Abyss were also prohibited from disclosing information.
That was why there was a limit to the information one could obtain even by capturing the wizards of the Abyss.
Zeke said looking at Dario.
“You even went so far as to put up a gold medal. I guess you know the true identity of the general boss.”
Dario’s face turned pale at Zeke’s words.
Just from that reaction Zeke knew that his thoughts were correct.
‘You even put a ban on the family boss to hide his identity? What kind of guy is the general boss?’
He seemed like a very thorough person to the point of obsession.
Zeke got up from his seat and approached Boris.
“When the sun sets we move. We have prepared a boat on the riverbank beyond the mountain.”
“Okay boss.”
Then Zeke whispered softly to Boris.
“It seems like information keeps leaking out. You never know when or where enemies might pop up so be careful.”
Boris nodded at Zeke’s words.
Boris was also suspicious of that part. No matter how fast the information from Siemens was it was impossible for the Knights to rush in so quickly to find the safe house where Dario was hiding.
It was almost a done deal that there was a traitor within.
As soon as it got dark Zeke took them over the mountains and headed toward the river.
The pursuit force had already moved east so there were no signs of enemies in the mountains.
I had to get over the mountain and get to the river before the sun rose.
“Whew. Whoosh.”
Bisco felt out of breath and his heart pounding just from following Zik and Boris up the mountain taking turns carrying Dario.
‘They are monsters.’
Although Bisco was prepared to do anything to survive he never thought that this situation would come to him.
He clenched his teeth and followed behind Zeke and Boris.
* * *
“I can see the ship.”
Zeke used his eyesight to locate the ship in the forest.
Zig who was about to go down towards the ship raised his hand and gave a stop signal.
Because strange movements were detected inside the ship.
“What’s wrong boss?”
Zeke frowned.
“It seems like the Empire discovered the ship and took it over.”
They tried to go upriver to Mycenae by boat but the knights of the empire had already set a trap and were waiting for them.
Even if they recaptured the boat and sailed up the river it was obvious that the imperial army would already be waiting upstream blocking the waterway.
Boris asked Zeke.
“What do you want to do?”
“Change the plan.”
Zeke quickly gathered his thoughts and drew his sword.
“Boris you take Darius and go to Mycenae as planned. Visko you and I will seize a ship. I will take the ship and go upriver to lure those men.”
Boris nodded after hearing Zeke’s words.
“Okay boss.”
Boris immediately dragged Dario back up the mountain.
If they went over the mountains and found horses at the villages they could reach Mycenae in two days. They seemed to have split into two groups: one group pursuing them to the east and the other waiting in the boat just in case so if they could lure them away they could both go to Mycenae without much trouble.
Zeke gestured to Bisco.
“I’ll confuse the Bisco guys. Prepare the blood.”
“Okay boss!”
The two of them moved stealthily down the mountain.
* * *
As Zeke had expected it was the Imperial Army that had occupied the ship.
Imperial troops drawn from surrounding areas at the request of Siemens were waiting hiding inside the ship.
One of the knights yawned loudly and grumbled in boredom.
Then he spoke to the colleague next to him.
“But is this really the work of vampires?”
“The one who kidnapped that conglomerate was Lich. Who else but vampires can handle monsters like Lich?”
“Why the hell are we being dragged into this fucking mafia fight… Damn it.”
The grumbling knight suddenly stood up from his seat.
His colleague looked at him and said.
“Hey where are you going? Didn’t you hear me telling you to stay in your seat?”
“I’m going to take a rest. Rest. I’m going to put rice ramen in the chamber pot but it won’t come out.”
“I don’t care if the leader scolds me.”
“Okay. They all went back to the east anyway.”
The knight climbed onto the ship stood on the deck and urinated into the river.
“Ugh. It’s cool. Huh? Why is there so much fog? Was it like this before too?”
The knight finished peeing and pulled up his pants.
But the fog was thicker than before.
“Huh? What is it?”
The knight rubbed his eyes and looked ahead.
Then something appeared in the fog.
Ki-ki-ki-ki!
A dilapidated ship slowly approached. As expected it had an old flag flying on it.
The knight noticed the ship’s flag and was startled.
A flag with a skull on it.
The ship was filled with countless skeletons and horrifying looking monsters.
The knight who saw the sight was terrified stepped back and shouted.
“It’s a ghost ship! A ghost ship has appeared!”
