A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 351



Episode 351

‘You will grant my wish?’

The fallen constellation proposed a deal directly to Zeke through the emperor who had become an incarnation of the constellation.

The message appeared before Zeke’s eyes again.

[It is said that the black snake in the mouth can grant anything it wants.]

[They say that omnipotent power and eternal life are possible.]

Zeke said as he looked at the Emperor who had become a complete monster.

“If you can listen to everything I say why don’t you use that ability to take the Holy Spear away from me?”

[The black snake in his mouth says that his intervention in the phenomenal world is limited due to karma restrictions.]

[However it is said that if an immortal becomes his incarnation he is permitted to use his powers regardless of karma.]

[The black snake in his mouth reveals that his power unlike the powers of the other constellations cannot be stopped even by Karma.]

Zeke was able to guess the current situation through the words of the black snake in his mouth.

‘The power of the fallen constellations is still limited by karma. But there are ways to circumvent such karmic limitations.’

It was probably along similar lines that the upper-level demons were summoned to the phenomenal world without karmic sanctions through the Bloodstone in the Abyss.

Zeke wanted to find out information about the fallen constellations through the black snake in his mouth.

He opened his mouth to the incarnate emperor.

“If I become your incarnation will there be any disadvantages?”

Zeke’s question brought the message back to me again.

[The black serpent in the mouth of the fallen constellation says that the price will be very small compared to what he will gain with his power.]

It was quite a clever statement.

He didn’t say anything about the compensation or the price but only said things that could be interpreted positively.

Zeke asked the question again.

“I want to know what the price is. I can’t make a deal without knowing that.”

The black snake in Zeke’s mouth remained silent for a moment before sending another message.

[It is said that in order to become an incarnation of a constellation one’s soul must be connected to one another through a chain of oaths.]

Zig listened to the black snake in his mouth and something came to mind.

“Is the Chain of Oath referring to the chain that connects each other’s hearts when making a contract with a dragon?”

[The black snake in the mouth says it is something similar to that.]

As Zeke looked at the floating message he realized that the black snake in his mouth was cleverly reducing its meaning through expressions.

‘The contract between the dragon and the contractor is a connection between equals. However the connection between the fallen constellation and the incarnation cannot be the same.’

Zeke guessed that becoming an incarnation of a constellation would mean surrendering one’s soul and becoming completely subservient to it.

Through his conversation with the black snake in his mouth he was able to guess what the contract with the devil meant and how it influenced the phenomenal world by avoiding the sanctions of karma.

Zeke said looking at the Emperor.

“That proposal is quite interesting.”

At his words the black snake in his mouth sent a message again.

[The black snake in the mouth of the fallen constellation promises the best treatment if you become its incarnation.]

Zig nodded at the message.

Then he took out the Holy Spear from his inventory.

The Emperor who had become an incarnation of the black snake in his mouth opened his mouth as he looked at the Holy Spear that had changed into an appearance similar to Bahamut.

“The master wants a holy spear.”

Zeke said looking at the emperor like that.

“How can I trust a monster like you and give you this?”

Then the message came back to me again.

[The black snake in his mouth says that if he passes the Holy Spear to his incarnation a contract will be established and he can immediately carve a seal with his power and grant the immortal’s wish.]

Zeke looked at the message from the black snake in his mouth and wondered.

‘Even if it is through an incarnate body expressing one’s will in the phenomenal world is something that can be subject to karmic sanctions so there is quite a lot to say about that.’

He could feel that the black snake in his mouth was quite anxious for some unknown reason.

Zeke spoke to the constellation.

“If I make this deal will it give me the power to eliminate Arthur Draker the head of the Draker family?”

A son who wants to get rid of his powerful father and take his place.

Human beings have always continued their history through such struggles for power.

The black snake in his mouth accepted the desire that Zeke had just spoken of as truth for it felt so ‘human’.

[The black snake in the mouth of the fallen constellation says it is quite possible.]

Ddddddddd—

The energy emanating from the emperor’s body shook the entire palace of the Holy King.

Zeke realized that this vibration was not a threat but rather the constellation’s inability to hide its joy.

Zig nodded after seeing the message and slowly walked forward.

The emperor who had become a monster glared at Zeke with red eyes.

At the same time snakes began to writhe behind his back and his head began to change shape.

The skin covered in sticky fluid split open revealing red eyes within.

Red eyes on the tips of dozens of tentacles watched Zeke’s movements as if watching him.

Zigg holding the Holy Spear stood before the Emperor and looked up at him.

Then he aimed the spear he was holding at the emperor.

Krrrrrrrr―

As the spearhead was aimed at him the Emperor bared his sharp teeth and roared at Zeke.

Zeke snickered at the sight of such an emperor.

“Here take it.”

Zig swung the spear around and held the shaft forward.

The Emperor wary of such a zeal moved his tentacles towards the spear he extended.

As the tentacles wrapped around the spear shaft of the Holy Spear and tried to take it away Zeke who still held the spear looked at the Emperor and said.

“But you know Emperor there’s something I really wanted to ask you when I saw you.”

The emperor who had become a monster looked down at Zeke with his red eyes flashing.

Zeke spoke to him.

“Why on earth is that happening?”

Then the message came back to me again.

[The black snake in the mouth of the fallen constellation says that the deal will be made only when the Holy Spear is completely handed over.]

Ignoring it Zeke spoke to the Emperor again.

“That’s why you made the entire continent like X to do what to do with your old body.”

It was Zeke who unconsciously let out the harsh words from his past life.

As a strong murderous aura flowed out from Zeke the Emperor instinctively swung his sharp claws at him.

Phew!

Before he knew it an aura blade shot out from Annexi’s dagger in Zeke’s hand.

Choaaaak!

The aura blade emitted by Zeke cut off the Emperor’s arm.

“Kaaaak!”

The emperor screamed and tried to step back.

But first the chain flew out of Zeke’s hand which was holding the spear.

Chorrrrrr!

Chains snaked around the Emperor’s arms and body running along the spear.

The Emperor was unable to step back and faced Zigg with the Holy Spear in his middle.

“How dare this insignificant thing!”

The Emperor shouted and stretched out the tentacles behind him.

A cloud of black mist rose from the tentacles and sharp protrusions emerged as it flew towards Zig.

At that moment a golden aura flowed out from Zeke’s body who was holding the spear.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

The black fog that touched the golden aura disappeared in an instant.

“Haaaah!”

Zeke leapt into the air holding the spear and twisted the Emperor’s arm upside down.

Wood crunch!

The Emperor’s arm twisted and broke but this could not inflict any damage on him who had already become a monster.

Instead the Emperor’s neck and limbs turned backwards and a grotesque sight emerged with a tentacle-like back plate forming a chest.

But what Zeke was after wasn’t simply to break joints.

He reached out towards where the tentacles were writhing.

chin!

He grabbed the hilt of the jeweled sword Roland which was stuck on the Emperor’s back.

At the same time Zeke unleashed a blade of brilliant light.

Woooo …

A powerful light burst out from within the Emperor’s body.

Paddududuk―

The Emperor’s body exploded with the power of the brilliant blade of light.

“Kuaaaah!”

The Emperor screamed in agony as his left upper body was almost blown away.

But soon bones and flesh began to grow from the exploded body of the emperor and he regenerated back to his original form.

The Emperor extended his new arm unaffected by the soul sealing technique and swung it at Zeke.

Choaaaak!

Zeke dodged the Emperor’s attacks here and there while holding the spear.

The Emperor who sacrificed all of the strength he had as a knight and transformed into a monster may have surpassed human strength but in terms of technique he could not keep up with the Black Knight Zeke.

Zeke simply dodged the attack and then unleashed the Elemental Sword’s golden field of power.

Kugugugugugu―

A powerful pressure pressed down on the emperor’s body.

The Emperor opened his eyes wide and said feeling Zigg’s power beyond the normal course.

“Did you also receive power from the constellation?”

Instead of answering Zeke put Annexy’s dagger away and clenched his fist.

And immediately he loaded up his gold and began to strike the emperor with his fists.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Zig crushed the body of the emperor who had become a monster with his fist full of strength.

Kkwadduk!

The body that was torn apart by Zeke’s fist was regenerated by the power of the constellation.

Zeke then punched the regenerated Emperor’s body again turning it into a lump of meat and the Emperor’s body immediately began to regenerate again.

As the terrible pain repeated itself the Emperor felt terrified by Zeke’s attacks.

“That’s enough!”

But Zeke didn’t stop.

Again his fist struck the Emperor’s face.

Boom!

The Emperor’s face was crushed teeth bones and brain matter flying out in all directions.

Tsk tsk tsk―

But without a doubt the emperor’s body was restored.

He shouted at the black snake in his mouth.

“Master! Save me! Quickly! Give me the strength to kill that bastard!”

Despite the emperor’s pitiful pleas the black snake in his mouth showed no response at all.

Zeke who was watching the scene looked at the Emperor and said.

“He has already abandoned you.”

The Emperor looked at Zeke and said trembling in disbelief.

“That can’t be true. I as the Emperor of Eternal Life will rule the Empire forever…”

“Instead of having such crazy fantasies and doing such nonsense you should have just died quietly.”

Zeke’s punching began again.

It was a literal unfiltered punch without any technique or anything mixed in.

Zig’s fist filled with golden power thoroughly destroyed the Emperor’s body over and over again.

The Emperor’s will to fight was completely broken as his body was repeatedly destroyed and regenerated.

He spoke to Zeke trembling.

“Save me… I’ll give you whatever you want. Money power beauty… anything…”

“I don’t need anything.”

The emperor was taken aback by Zig’s firm words.

“Then I will give you my empire… my empire. You become the Fire Emperor.”

“Even if you give me that I won’t take it.”

The emperor was shocked and terrified by Zeke’s words.

A new kind of human being one I’ve never seen before who has so few desires that no temptation means anything.

It was not only the emperor who felt fear of him.

The black snake in the constellation’s mouth that descended into the emperor’s body also felt similar emotions.

Unlike other humans who were full of desires he had no idea what Zeke wanted.

The black snake in his mouth who had been getting what he wanted through bargaining since ancient times could not help but question the very existence of Zigg.

Because of that the constellation instinctively felt that they had to get out of here quickly.

Now that he had descended into the body of an incarnate being his origins were to some extent intertwined with the phenomenal world.

He was quick to learn that the Rider of Blood and Madness had attacked Zeke directly but instead had part of his source sealed into him.

Although he felt sorry for the Emperor’s body that he had worked so hard to seduce and turn into an incarnation he could have lost his power like the horseman of blood and madness if he had done something wrong.

He had no choice but to observe the situation and then try to escape from the emperor’s body.

Ss …

Because of this the emperor’s body began to disintegrate like sand.

Zeke noticed that the black snake in his mouth was trying to abandon the Emperor’s body.

The emperor whose soul was mortgaged to the black snake in his mouth had no choice but to be dragged along with him to the Demon World.

“Oh no….”

At that moment Zeke turned the spear he was holding upside down.

Then he thrust his holy spear with all his might into the heart of the Emperor whose body was disintegrating into dust.
