A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 317



Episode 317

Kookookookookook!

If they were normal knights they would have been knocked back by the powerful attacks of the barbarians but the black knights instead stuck their shoulders out and clashed with them.

“Wow!”

The barbarians shouted battle cries and fought with all their might but when three black knights charged at each of them they were not pushed back at all by brute force.

Then another black knight ran in from behind swinging his bladed sword.

Choaaaak!

The crimson auror blade severed the barbarian’s arm.

“pain!”

The barbarian with his arm cut off roared like an angry beast and immediately regained his balance and stood.

He put his severed arm in his mouth and swung his remaining arm at the Black Knights.

The power of the aura blades which were condensed with magical energy used by the black knights easily cut through even the strong bodies of barbarians.

Choaaaak!

As the sword wounds on the Barbarians’ bodies increased blood flowed from their once solid walls.

“It hurts so bad!”

Boom!

At that moment a black knight was rolling on the ground with his limbs twisted on the earthen wall.

At the same time Zeke unleashed his holy light towards the black knights who were attacking the barbarians.

Kwakwakwakwang!

The hammer of light struck hard at the black knights.

However unlike ordinary minions the magic energy of the Black Knights did not disperse even under the power of the Holy Light.

‘What happened? Is this the power brought by the devil’s mark?’

When the power of the Holy Light failed Zeke put on the Mask of Agamemnon and raised the Blade of Purification.

A golden aura spread out from Roland’s sword.

A spreading golden aura enveloped the barbarians.

As the power of purification took hold in their bodies the black aura blades emitted by the Black Knights no longer had the same power as before.

The injured Barbarians regained their strength as Zeke buffed them again with healing and infinite stamina.

“Ooooh! It doesn’t hurt anymore!”

The barbarians charged at the black knights with a shout.

It seemed much easier to deal with them than before as he pushed them forward with his strong body.

Zeke slowly approached the Black Knights holding Roland the Blade of Purification.

But then something flew towards Zeke.

Push!

From a distance the Night Killer’s bullet flew in aiming for Zeke’s forehead.

Ting!

The bullet failed to penetrate Hersion’s helmet and rolled to the ground crumpled.

Zeke instantly calculated the speed and direction of the trajectory and pinpointed the Night Killer’s location.

‘Go and do it.’

Whenever he found out the location of the Night Killers he gave an order to the ghost soldiers he had on standby to kill them immediately.

By defeating them we could prevent knights from being sacrificed on the battlefield.

Zeke glanced around then picked up Roland again and approached the Black Knights.

The black knights instinctively hesitated and stepped back at the golden aura flowing from his body.

But then black smoke began to flow out around the Black Knights.

Tsk tsk tsk―

Black smoke containing powerful magic blocked the golden aura emitted by Zig and protected the Black Knights.

Zeke aimed his torch at the black smoke streaming towards him hoping to burn it.

Phew!

But the smoke seemed to disperse and then returned to its original state.

Then something walked out between the black knights.

‘That’s…?’

He was a wizard wearing a bizarrely shaped black mask that completely covered his face and wearing black leather clothes all over his body.

The wizard wearing a black mask was holding a staff that emitted black energy.

As the wizard swung his staff black smoke seeped into the Black Knights.

At the same time the black aura blades from the black knights’ swords rose with even greater power.

The wizard wearing a black mask looked at Zeke and said.

“Target identified. Kill initiated.”

Zeke realized that the staff the wizard held was a symbol of the power of the Rider of Blood and Madness.

‘It seems that the power that contaminated Hydra and the Giant Mountains with magic was similar to this.’

As Zeke searched his memories the black knights rushed toward Zeke at the wizard’s command.

And at that moment black smoke spread to the area where Zig was.

Kugugugugugu―

Zeke realized that the black current containing magic was acting as a kind of barrier.

‘Making the enemies weak and the black knights strong?’

Zeke raised the Blade of Purification again and emitted a golden aura.

Then the approaching black knights instinctively retreated to avoid the power of purification.

And he unleashed the power of purification towards the spreading black smoke.

Woohoo!

The black smoke that touched the flowing aura disappeared and scattered.

Then the wizard behind him swung his staff again.

As if creating a dimensional rift the devil’s staff continuously produced smoke containing magical energy.

Zeke felt that the power of the black masked wizard with his staff was several times more threatening than when the black knights were alone.

‘What if the Empire creates hundreds and thousands of these guys and deploys them into battle?’

It was clear that most of the kingdoms on the continent would soon surrender.

The smoke containing magic was like poison to the barbarians.

Zeke ordered the barbarians to fall back and created a huge barrier of golden aura to prevent the smoke from reaching the west gate.

‘It seems like the power of the mask has grown stronger since meeting the Fairy King.’

The range of uses for the power of purification has become wider than before.

Fortunately the black smoke did not pass through the barrier of golden aura.

Zeke lifted Roland up and aimed it at the black-masked wizard.

“I’ll take off that mask and find out who you really are.”

As the wizard moved his staff at Zeke’s words the black knights blocked his path and raised their black auror blades.

At that moment Zeke closed the distance with a welcoming gesture and leapt into the air.

He swung his dragon claws at the black knights.

Quaching!

The black knights retreated in confusion at the invisible attack.

Zeke took advantage of the gap and swung his sword.

Woohoo!

The Blade of Purification radiated a golden aura as it struck the Black Knights.

Kwakwakwakwang!

Following the golden aura a mace of light rained down on the black knights.

The black smoke was extinguished and dispersed by the intense power of purification.

As the black smoke disappeared the Black Knights were also forced to take direct hits from the light magic.

Then the wizard swung his staff and healed the injured black knights.

The black knights who had been injected with magic stood up again in good health.

Zeke felt embarrassed by the sudden turn of events.

‘Is it true that I can easily recover at any time as long as I have magic?’

Zig who had a healing factor knew very well how scary that power was.

Zeke felt the need to take a different approach.

He stepped back and summoned Richmond and Vane.

Richmond and Bane who had been holding off the demons in the outskirts responded to Zeke’s summons with an exhausted look.

“Heh heh… Did you call Master?”

“Ugh I should have just frozen all those devil bastards! How frustrating!”

Zeke said to Richmond who was running towards him in a hurry.

“Build a horseshoe-shaped wall of bone between me and those Richmond guys.”

“Ugh I worked too hard and now I’m exhausted…”

Zeke immediately absorbed the corpses of the demons and monsters then took out Bahamut and converted its power to Richmond and Bane.

Woohoo!

Richmond and Bane who received strength from Zeke immediately regained their energy and responded enthusiastically.

“Thank you master!”

“Where should I start? Just give me the order!”

At Zeke’s command Richmond created a horseshoe-shaped wall of bone that surrounded the Black Knight and the Wizard and Bane covered it with ice.

The Barbarians were amazed at the suddenly appearing walls.

Zeke activated defense mode recalling when he had faced the Snow Queen.

[Determine the defense area.]

[Refresh the area information.]

[Detects contaminated energy within the area.]

[Defends against polluted energy by linking with the user’s skill Holy Light title Fairy’s Blessing.]

As the bone and ice walls were covered in a halo of light the black smoke could not approach.

The black knights and wizards were trapped inside the horseshoe-shaped barrier and could not escape.

Zigg used Defense Mode not only for defense but also for offense.

Running Defense Mode did consume a lot of mana but since there were only monsters and corpses of demons lying around I could replenish my strength by absorbing them.

Zeke took out his guardians and placed them on the barrier just like he had done when dealing with the Snow Queen.

Kookookookook!

Horus and Idas Lynchaeus were deployed and attacked the Black Knights trying to come out of the horseshoe-shaped wall.

Shushu shuk!

Idas and Lynceus fired arrows of light at the Black Knights and red rays poured from Horus’ eyes.

Kwakwakwakwa!

However the Black Knights who were defeated by the Guardians were restored and raised again by the power of the black smoke.

As soon as he deployed the Guardians Zeke felt his mana draining rapidly.

‘We must catch the wizard quickly.’

Zeke leaving the outside of the barrier to the barbarians and the entrance to the guardians jumped into the air.

Wheeeeeek!

A blade of purification rose from Zeke’s sword glowing with a golden aura.

He planned to sweep away the black knights along with the wizard in one go.

The black masked wizard noticed Zeke’s thoughts and pointed his staff at Zeke.

Woohoo!

A strong resonance occurred and smoke filled with magic energy began to transform into tentacles and rush towards Zeke.

Zig released his power of purification emitting a golden aura.

The black smoke that was touched by the power of purification turned to ash and scattered.

The divine aura that Zeke was emitting was visible even from the autonomous district behind him.

He raised his sword and took the infinite sword stance.

Zeke descended from the air swinging his sword downward.

Woohoo!

The golden aura from Zeke’s sword spread out in all directions.

“Haaaah!”

The secret technique of the Infinite Sword Strike was revealed along with a shout.

Infinite Sword Art

Three-knot system

The Great Plum Blossom

Zeke’s body holding a sword flew towards the black-masked wizard as if it were a giant golden bird.

Kwakwakwakwa!

The wizard was pushed back by the powerful purifying force and looked for a place to hide but was blocked by a barrier and could not escape.

Kookookookookook!

The wizard had no choice but to hold his staff and resist the power of purification.

Zeke’s golden aura and the black aura coming from the staff clashed fiercely.

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

[The Rider of Blood and Madness looks upon the Immortal.]

[I am furious at the immortal who constantly interferes with the work of his servants.]

[The Rider of Blood and Madness takes the blow of the source and attempts to make a direct attack on the Immortal.]

[The power of the Rider of Blood and Madness ‘Blood Domination’ is activated.]

[Blood stops flowing through the Immortal’s body for 1 minute.]

‘The Rider of Blood and Madness used his power himself?’

At that moment as he was surprised by the message that had appeared the blood stopped flowing from Zeke’s body due to the power activated by the Rider of Blood and Madness.

“Ugh.”

Zeke’s face turned red.

Since there was no blood flowing blood did not circulate to the heart or any other organs.

If he had been an ordinary knight he would have died immediately.

But Zeke was none other than an immortal.

The titles he had accumulated began to exert their power.

[The title of the God of the Sea’s Glory rejects the power of the Rider of Blood and Madness.]

[Title Knight of the Brilliant Light protects the user from evil spirits.]

[Title Fairy’s Blessing protects the user from evil spirits.]

[Title: The grace of the divine beast protects the user’s body.]

“Huh!”

In less than a minute Zeke managed to break free from the power of the Blood and Madness Rider and soon the blood began to flow back to his body.

Instead the failure of authority caused a backlash and the blows returned to the rider of blood and madness.

[The activation of the Blood and Madness Rider’s power ‘Blood Domination’ has failed.]

[The Rider of Blood and Madness cannot believe that his powers do not work on humans in the phenomenal world.]

[A direct hit is made on the source of the Blood and Madness Riders.]

[A crack appears at the source of the Blood and Madness Riders.]

Kookookookook!

The staff that the black mask was holding was gradually starting to crack.

Tsk tsk tsk!

At that moment a dark red energy flowed out from the staff.

[The Rider of Blood and Madness unable to control his anger suppresses the wound of the source and attempts to directly manipulate the energy to destroy the soul of the immortal.]

For a moment Zeke’s eyes lit up.

He took out Solomon’s Ring from his inventory and immediately equipped it.

Woohoo!

Zeke activated Solomon’s Ring towards the crimson aura.

[Solomon’s Ring’s unique ability ‘Seal’ is activated.]

As the message appeared a crimson aura from the staff seeped into Solomon’s ring.

Kwakwakwakwa!

As all the crimson energy leaking out from the staff was sucked away a pattern was engraved on Solomon’s ring and a message appeared.

[Some of the sources of the Fallen Constellations’ blood and madness are sealed in Solomon’s Ring.]
