A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 350
by Hectopascal(헥토파스칼 )
Episode 350
‘That monster is the emperor of the Roman Empire.’
In his previous life Zeke stole the Elder Dragon relic that the Emperor was trying to seize but was killed by hounds and lost his comrades in the continental war he started.
With that kind of past one person came to mind before Zeke’s eyes.
‘Alicia.’
Alicia Himonas.
The Northern Grand Duke the White Wolf of the Northern Continent the Wolf King the incarnation of Fenrir the King of the North etc.
Many titles were given to her and many praised her as the only hero who could stop the Emperor Nero who was called the usurper of the continent.
But in the end Alicia was unable to stop the usurper’s forces and she met her end by stabbing herself in the neck with a sword.
In his previous life Zeke always thought the same thing when he thought of Alicia.
He thought to himself countless times that if he had been a little stronger and had reached the level of the Black Knight he could have protected her.
Zeke looked at the Emperor with his horrifying appearance and thought of his dead comrades from his past life.
‘Because of this guy…’
Zeke frowned as he watched the Emperor throw off the shackles of humanity in order to extend his own life.
At that moment the emperor glared at Zeke with his sharp teeth.
“I remember who you are. You dirty Draker squire. Blood of the bloody Arthur Draker.”
The emperor’s back began to swell and eventually all the clothes he was wearing were torn.
Kkwadduk!
From behind his back tentacles that looked like snakes sprouted.
Kaaaak!
The emperor’s eyes gradually turned red.
“Ugh!”
He barely managed to come to his senses and shouted at Zeke.
“Where have you taken the remains of the Holy King? Bring them to me immediately! If you give the remains to the black snake in my mouth I can regain my original youth and eternal life!”
The emperor seemed unaware that the remains of the holy king were not here.
‘The black snake in your mouth? Is that the name of the fallen constellation? That bastard is the one who tempted the Emperor.’

Perhaps what the black snake in his mouth wanted was not the remains of the Holy King but the Holy Spear that was left here.
It was unknown why the fallen constellations were trying to obtain the Holy Spear following the Holy Relics but it could be assumed that it was related to the Demon King’s resurrection.
Zeke said aiming Bahamut at the Emperor.
“If you want to find the remains of the Holy King you will have to capture me.”
The Emperor bared his sharp teeth and shouted at Zeke’s words.
“You insolent bastard! I’ll tear you to pieces and kill you!”
Clang!
As soon as the emperor finished speaking tentacles sprouted from behind his back and flew towards Zeke.
Zeke unleashed his holy light towards the tentacles swirling around him from all directions.
Wooooow!
A powerful light rose above his head.
At the same time a large flash of light appeared in the light.
Jiiiiiing―
The flashes of light shot out in all directions and hit the tentacles.
Kaaaaaaah!
The tentacles struck by the flash scattered into dust emitting black smoke.
Zeke saw the weak tentacles in the Holy Light and realized that the Emperor had been consumed by magic.
‘Is this a similar state to Hydra that was completely consumed by magic?’
Zeke aimed his holy light at the Emperor’s body.
Jiiing―
A flash of light flew towards the emperor.
Then the Emperor extended his hand forward and a translucent red curtain appeared canceling out the flash of light from the Holy Light.
Tsk tsk tsk tsk―
The red curtain surrounding the Emperor’s body seemed to be a different type of power than magic or aura.
Zeke opened his eyes and examined the red curtain protecting the Emperor.
‘Is it some kind of ancient sorcery?’
The emperor who had created a new body through the social skills of a cultist was as if his entire body was imbued with sorcery.
As Zeke clicked his tongue inwardly the Emperor raised his sharp claws and swung them at Zeke.
Choaaaak!
Deadly poison oozed from his claws and sprayed towards Zeke.
Cheeeeek!
The venom that had been sprayed around was enough to melt the walls and floors.
Zeke used his power Chlorine towards the flying venom.
Whoosh whoosh!
The flames created by the power flew towards Zeke burning all the venom that was heading towards him and covering the Emperor.
Woohoo!
The Emperor’s body was once again enveloped in a translucent curtain.

However the flames that Zeke created contained the power of the dragon.
The salt pierced the veil created by sorcery.
When the emperor saw this he instinctively began to recite a spell as he saw the power of the flames trying to consume him.
Tsk tsk tsk―
A black aura rose from his body.
A black aura enveloped the power of the flames that covered the curtain and soon the flames began to die down.
Zeke looked surprised as he watched the Emperor extinguish the flames he had created with his power.
‘Is that the power of the fallen constellation? It’s so terrible.’
The emperor looked even more hideous than before.
The surface of its body was covered in slippery liquid and pus and an additional pair of eyes had appeared on its forehead.
The tentacles writhing behind his back stretched out in all directions making a hissing sound like a snake.
Then the emperor extended his hand towards Zeke.
Woohoo!
The black energy extending from his hand gathered together and formed some shapes.
Zeke sensed a ghostly aura from the figure.
Kkaaa …
Dozens of phantom knights like black shadows approached Zeke.
The Emperor pointed to them and shouted.
“Faithful knights of the Ghost! Kill him now!”
The shadows rushed towards Zeke at the Emperor’s command.
Before they knew it the Ghost Knights were mounted on shadow horses swords and shields in hand.
The Ghost Knights rushed at him but Zigg did not move an inch.
The ghost knights who had approached Zig like that froze for a moment.
The emperor was perplexed as he looked at the ghost that stood motionless like a statue.
“You ghosts! What are you doing! Kill him now!”
The knights whose souls were bound to the Emperor and turned into ghosts felt fear at his cries.
But even then the ghosts could not move.
Because Zeke was using the power of shadow domination.
Tsk tsk tsk―
Before we knew it Zeke’s shadows had captured the ghosts.
The spectres could not overcome the power of the shadows that was eating away at their souls.
Zig swallowed all the ghosts he had captured with the power of shadow using his absorption skill.
[Absorbed the ghost of a fallen knight.]
[The ghost of a fallen knight absorbed by the influence of Shadow Domination is transformed into a shadow spirit.]
[You have acquired the 32nd Ghost Knight as a summoner.]
The ghosts created by the emperor ended up becoming the shadow spirits of Zeke.
Tsk tsk tsk―
Zeke summoned his new summoned ghost knights.
They lined up at Zig’s command their shadow spirits looking much clearer and stronger than when they were in ghost form.
He gave another psychic command and the ghostly knights turned their horses towards the Emperor raised their shields and aimed their swords.
The emperor trembled at the sight.
“How dare you! My knights!”
Zeke snickered as he looked at the emperor.
“They are dead ghosts anyway so whoever uses them is the owner.”
Zeke summoned Cayman and other warriors there.
With the dragon warriors joining in an order of knights was completed in an instant.
Zeke gave them orders.
“Catch the Emperor.”
Cayman led his dragon warriors and ghost knights and charged towards the emperor.
The Emperor stretched out his tentacles towards the shadow spirits that were charging forward with terrifying momentum.
Clang! Clang!
The tentacles coiled around the shadow spirits like snakes and tried to throw them away but the ghost knights’ strength was not to be underestimated.
Although they were fallen knights they were ghosts who had great powers while alive.
The Emperor hesitated and stepped back as the Ghost Knights cut off the tentacles that clung to them and approached them threateningly.
In the past the emperor was also a warrior and knight with outstanding military power but he was unable to display aura with his body made of forbidden technology.
He shouted out the door.
“Gillian! Come here and kill these guys! Quickly!”
The Emperor urgently called Gillian who was fighting the Golem Knight outside.
Then something flew in from outside the door.
Hooooooooooo!
What flew towards Zeke was the head of the Golem Knight.
Boom!
As Zeke dodged the Golem Knight’s head was driven deep into the wall.
Outside the door Gillian came in dragging the golem knight’s torso.
The emperor shouted at Gillian.
“Gillian! Kill him now!”
Strengthened by the power of the black snake in his mouth Gillian was displaying the power of a black knight.
He threw the Golem Knight’s torso aside and then aimed his greatsword at Zeke.
Kwakwakwakwa!
The floor began to crack as it could not withstand the black energy flowing out of Gillian’s body.
Wow! Wow!
Gillian lunged at Zeke with a beastly roar.
Then Zeke also took up Bahamut and clashed with Gillian.
Boom!
Gillian’s greatsword and Zeke’s sword clashed causing an explosion.
Zigg was pushed back by a powerful blast of force.
But he immediately brought down the hammer of light towards Gillian.
Kwakwakwang!
Gillian was hit squarely by the Light’s Hammer but he seemed completely unscathed and charged back towards Zeke.
Phew!
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!
His greatsword fell repeatedly towards Zeke.
Zeke took advantage of the opening by sliding Gillian’s sword to the side.
Although he was drunk on magic and had lost his senses Gillian was a strong knight who was on the verge of becoming a Black Knight through arduous training.
Despite wielding a blunt broadsword he was impenetrable.
Zeke was impressed by Gillian’s skill as he faced him with his sword.
‘How dare you make an article like this. What a stupid emperor.’
Zeke stepped back for a moment then swung his sword at Gillian again.
Boom!
Gillian who was hit head-on by Zeke’s sword filled with golden power lost his balance for a moment and staggered due to the different strength than before.
Then he concentrated his black energy again and created a black aura.
Zeke said looking at Gillian.
“You said Gillian. Your skills are too great to kill me like this. It would be a shame.”
Although he appeared not to understand what he was saying Zeke said so and put on Agamemnon’s mask.
Then a golden aura arose from his body.
A golden aura focused on Zeke’s sword and a halo of light enveloped his sword.
It was a newly evolved skill ‘Blade of Brilliant Light.’
Zeke said looking at Gillian.
“If you survive I will take you as my subordinate and treat you well.”
Gillian who had lost his senses did not understand what Zeke was saying and rushed at Zeke with a greatsword filled with a black aura.
Hooooooooooo!
The air shook with a powerful blow.
Zeke held a blade of brilliant light and unleashed an infinite swordsmanship towards Gillian.
Infinite Sword Art
One-stop service
Sun and Moon Slaughter
A blade of light imbued with the power of purification blasted through Gillian’s body dissipating his black aura.
Ss …
As the power of purification seeped into Gillian’s body the black snake coiled around his body began to glow.
“Eeeeeeeeeeeee!”
Gillian writhe in pain.
The snake tattoo on his face twitched and soon something burst out of Gillian’s mouth.
Shh …
Black smoke flowed out from the body of the black snake exposed to the aura of purification.
A black snake burst out of Gillian’s mouth and quickly fled.
thud!
As the snake escaped Gillian lost strength and fell to the ground and Zeke approached him.
‘You didn’t stop breathing.’
But it seemed as if the black snake had coiled itself inside his body and had drained too much of his life force.
Zeke quickly cast healing spells on Gillian.
The wounds have healed to some extent but he has not regained consciousness.
As I was thinking about taking out the potion and giving it to her I felt an evil power growing stronger behind me.
‘What is this?’
When I turned around to check I was surprised to see that the emperor who had been fighting the ghost knights looked completely different than before.
Krrrrrrrr―
It had red eyes and snake-like skin oozing sticky fluid and from its head to its back snakes were writhing and making ominous sounds.
It was an appearance that could not possibly be called human.
The black snake that emerged from Gillian’s body entered the Emperor and took complete control of him.
The emperor looked at Zeke and opened his mouth.
“The Holy Constellation says… Bring the Holy Lance.”
Zeke frowned as he looked at the emperor who had completely turned into a monster.
‘I’ve become completely enslaved to the devil.’
At that moment a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.
[The black snake in the mouth of the fallen constellation looks at the immortal through the incarnation.]
[The black snake in the mouth makes an offer to the immortal.]
[He says that if you hand him the Holy Spear he will grant you the wish of becoming immortal.]
