A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 396



Episode 396

Woof woof woof!

The dagger stuck in Do-cheol’s heart caused a strong vibration.

Kwakwakwakwa!

And the magical storm blocking Zeke became stronger than before.

‘What on earth have you done?’

When Zeke saw that Do-cheol had plunged a dagger into his own heart he sensed that something unusual was about to happen.

This was because I had seen quite a few wizards and demons of the Abyss performing rituals by stabbing daggers into their hearts.

Grrrrrrrrr—

Something changed in the body of Do-cheol who stabbed himself in the heart with a dagger.

The crouching body twitched and then shook as if something was about to jump out from behind.

Keeeeeeeeek―

Do-cheol screamed in pain twisted his body and fell to the floor.

Zeke glared at this sight amidst the storm of magic.

That was when.

Suddenly Do-cheol’s back burst open and a black hand popped out.

‘What is that?’

This never happened when Nigel caught Do-cheol in his previous life.

‘Did the situation change when I regressed and met the Four Evils and the Abyss?’

The black hand writhed as if trying to tear through Do-cheol’s skin and get out.

Grrrrrrrrrr!

It was a scream as if crawling from the depths of hell.

Soon a bloody body began to emerge from Do-cheol’s body.

‘This won’t work!’

Zeke tried to escape the magical storm by using the sword’s spirit transformation skill.

But the moment he was about to use his skill the storm of magic that had surrounded him disappeared without a trace.

He raised his head and looked ahead and something rose from within Do-cheol’s skin.

An unidentified being covered in sticky blood all over its body like a newborn fetus.

The being raised its head looked up at the sky and muttered something.

[Whew… So what they said was true. I’ve finally gotten rid of that damn curse.]

Zeke looked at the being that was emitting an ominous aura.

It had a similar appearance to a Taoist iron dragon with a pair of huge horns on its head but it had a completely different aura and intimidating feel to it than a demon.

Looking at the beast-like face and body covered in thick hair and sharp claws and toenails it looked similar to a demon at first glance.

But the actual aura it gave off was completely different from that of the demons.

Zeke had felt something similar before.

‘The Snow Queen. Nephilim…’

The being that emerged from Do-cheol’s body stretched its body.

Then he looked at Zeke with red eyes and said.

[You insignificant human. You will pay the price for opposing the bloodline of God.]

Zik was taken aback by Do-cheol’s sudden change in appearance and by his words.

‘The blood of God?’

At that moment something crossed Zeke’s mind.

‘That is a being born from the blood of the constellation!’

I remembered what Aratasso had said when dealing with the Nephilim.

Zig slowly raised his hammer thinking that it wasn’t an illusion that the energy emanating from the transformed Do-cheol was similar to that of the Nephilim.

“Who are you?”

Do-cheol took a deep breath and smiled faintly.

[It’s not something that a lowly human being should know. You just need to be obedient and serve as our food.]

Zeke chuckled as he remembered the Nephilim’s words that humans would be their slaves forever.

Soon Zig’s expression hardened again and a bolt of light shot out from the hammer he was holding.

“A whip is a cure for a mad dog. I guess the same applies to a devil.”

Looking at that Do-cheol smiled and pulled at the corners of his lips.

[You arrogant bastard. Do you think a mere human can handle my divine power which has taken off my cursed skin and regained my divine status?]

Do-cheol reached out his hand towards Zig.

Woooo …

A vibration rang in Zeke’s ears.

Zigg who felt dizzy for a moment staggered slightly.

‘what?’

Do-cheol said as he looked at the bewildered Zik.

[Go and kill your own kind. Human blood and flesh are our food so we will eat the strong humans here and grow stronger.]

Zik just stood there blankly after hearing Do-cheol’s words.

Then Do-cheol tilted his head.

[What are you doing? Go and kill your own people right now.]

It was Do-cheol who gave orders as if Zeke were his subordinate.

Zig shook his head once picked up the hammer and strode toward Do-cheol.

Then he used all his ‘strong will’ to strike Do-cheol’s body.

Kkwaddudduk!

[Cough!]

The sound of bones breaking was heard from Do-cheol’s body after he was hit in the stomach by the hammer.

Do-cheol who had been standing there blankly suddenly fell down and glared at Zig as if he couldn’t believe it.

[Nonsense! How can a human reject the ‘power of God’!]

“I don’t know what the hell you’ve been talking about since a while ago.”

When Do-cheol gritted his teeth at Zig’s blunt answer and reached out an iron claw suddenly popped out from the ground.

The iron claws that immediately fell on Zeke seemed ready to tear his body apart at any moment.

Kkwaduk!

But surprisingly Zeke caught the iron nail with his bare hands.

Kookookookookook!

Zig who had pulled up the gold field broke the iron nail.

Whoosh!

Zig grabbed a shard of the broken iron nail and summoned the power of chlorine.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

The mighty power of authority melted the iron nails into molten metal.

Do-cheol was terrified when the molten iron dripped onto the floor.

[How can this human have power…!]

Do-cheol panicked but soon came to his senses and quickly tried to run away to avoid the approaching Zig.

But he was already caught in Zeke’s clutches.

As Zeke reached out a chain shot out and flew quickly towards the fleeing Do-cheol.

Chorrrrrr!

Chains wrapped around Do-cheol’s body as if he were alive.

He was startled when he saw the chains wrapped around him.

[Ugh! How did this end up in human hands!]

Do-cheol seemed to know the identity of the chain that Zig was handling.

“Do you know about this chain?”

He waited for a moment but Do-cheol showed no sign of speaking so Zig held onto the chain put on Agamemnon’s mask and breathed the power of purification into him.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

A golden aura seeped into Tao-cheol’s body.

[Kuaaaaak!]

Zig grabbed the distressed Do-cheol and asked him again.

“Tell me everything you know about this chain.”

Although Do-cheol appeared to be the most cruel he was actually the weakest and most cowardly of the four evildoers.

He was infinitely strong towards the weak but he was used to showing a mean side and lowering himself towards the strong.

‘It’s clear that he just shed his skin and his spirit hasn’t returned properly. Once he regains his strength I can subjugate him with my divine power.’

He thought he had to buy some time to regain his strength.

Do-cheol spoke to Zig while shedding tears.

[Please save me.]

“You were talking about a lowly human being earlier and now you’re suddenly like this? What are you planning?”

Zeke was used to dealing with such sly guys.

He pretended not to hear grabbed the chains and continued to pour the power of purification into Do-cheol’s body.

[Krrrrrrr!]

Do-cheol exaggerated and made a painful sound.

This is how I tried to buy time and regain my strength.

But Zeke was able to see through Do-cheol’s trick like a ghost.

“You’re being tricky. Okay keep doing it.”

Zig took out the Holy Spear from his inventory recalling that Do-cheol had called himself a ‘blood of God’.

Do-cheol who was trying to buy time by using tricks was terrified when he saw the holy spear that Zig took out.

[Why is that here…? Could it be the power of immortality?]

“Didn’t the guy who told you to bring me here tell you that? It’s too late to know now.”

Zik grabbed the spear and stabbed Do-cheol in the leg.

Cheeeeeeek―

Black smoke rose from Do-cheol’s leg which was stabbed by the Holy Spear.

[Kkaaaah!]

This time a scream of real pain escaped.

Zig pulled out his spear and said.

“It’s effective. It would have been convenient to have this when dealing with the archer.”

When Gong-gi’s name was mentioned Do-cheol was flustered and raised his voice.

[What have you done to my brother!]

“Brothers? Are you saying that two evil spirits are brothers?”

It seemed like they were not lumped together as four evils for nothing as there seemed to be some kind of connection between them.

Zig thrust his spear into Do-cheol’s neck and spoke in a low voice.

“You’ll know if you try it yourself but this is truly the spear of the God-Slayer. You’d better answer properly and not try to make a fuss.”

Since the Seongchang was the only divine object that could kill the blood relatives of a god it was definitely effective against Do-cheol as well.

‘Damn it. I’ve never heard anything like that from them.’

He only signed the contract after hearing that the Abyss could shed its husks and regain its original status.

And the contract was to bring Zeke back alive.

But I had no idea that the target was an immortal being with a holy spear.

Zig asked stabbing Do-cheol in the neck with the tip of his spear.

“Tell me what you know about this chain.”

Do-cheol hesitated but as the spear slowly dug into his throat he finally opened his mouth.

[O Solomon! These are the chains of King Solomon.]

Zik looked surprised when he heard the unexpected name coming out of Do-cheol’s mouth.

“Are you talking about Solomon the king of Carcosa?”

Do-cheol nodded.

[That’s right. King Solomon used those chains to capture the gods.]

Zeke inherited this chain as a legacy from Terracan Draker.

So I asked him to see if I could hear a little more about the Terracan but what I heard was something completely unexpected.

I thought it wasn’t an ordinary artifact since it was a chain that could capture not only the demons but also the fallen constellations but I didn’t know it was King Solomon’s chain.

‘King Solomon’s ring was given by the Elder Dragon. Then this chain could also have been made by the Elder Dragon.’

Zig took hold of the spear again and spoke to Do-cheol.

“Who sent you here? Explain to me what you look like now.”

Do-cheol felt a great fear at the thought of having a weapon in his throat that could completely erase his existence beyond the wheel of reincarnation.

Do-cheol whose hobby is capturing the weak and terrorizing them has found himself in the complete opposite position.

Do-cheol trembled and then opened his mouth.

[The priest of the Abyss came to me. He said that if I join hands with him he will help me shed my cursed skin and regain my original divine status.]

Zik heard Do-cheol’s words and pulled the chain.

His head turned and he met Zeke’s eyes.

Zig looked into Do-cheol’s eyes and said.

“What is the cursed ruin and what is the divine power? Are you not just a simple demon?”

Then Do-cheol slowly opened his mouth.

[We as I said before are the bloodline of the great god.]

“Tell me exactly so I can understand. Otherwise I’ll get a spear stuck in my heart.”

Do-cheol gulped at Zig’s words.

‘This guy is more than enough.’

Do-cheol realized that it was impossible to deceive Zig so he had to tell the truth.

[My brothers and I are beings created from the Holy Blood.]

“Does that mean you guys are Nephilim?”

When Zeke found out about Nephilim Do-cheol opened his eyes wide in surprise.

[How do you know that! Clearly ‘that history’ has been erased from humans!]

“Because I caught one Nephilim with my own hands.”

Zeke responded calmly sending the power of freezing through the chains.

Kkwadduk!

The power of freezing slowly froze Do-cheol’s body.

[Ugh!]

The power was also available to the Nephilim.

Zig started asking questions again as he watched Do-cheol suffer.

“The evil one is Nephilim… but why are you guys like the devil now?”

Do-cheol said sweating profusely.

[We are cursed.]

“What curse are you talking about?”

[It is a curse that the divine power is sealed within the ruins and is reincarnated forever.]

After hearing Do-cheol’s words Jik was able to understand a little bit why the ideal species were different from other demons.

It seems that in his previous life he had no chance to meet Narak so he ended up just being a slightly stronger demon.

“Are all Nephilim cursed?”

Do-cheol shook his head.

[Only those who joined hands with the fallen constellations received this curse. The others either died or lost their status and were transferred to a higher dimension as spirits.]

Now I understand why the Nephilim are no longer seen in the physical world.

‘It was unusual for the Snow Queen to remain sealed. I still don’t know why Master Kaiser didn’t destroy the Snow Queen but instead sealed her.’

Zik gathered his thoughts and stepped on Do-cheol’s chest.

“I have a rough idea of ​​what happened but why did the priest order you to arrest me?”

At those words Do-cheol shook his head.

[I don’t know about that either! Really!]

“Really? Then you’re no longer valuable.”

As Zig picked up the spear and tried to stab the bastard in the heart Do-cheol shouted urgently.

[Wait a minute! I remember!]

He heard Do-cheol’s words and stopped the spear right in front of his heart.

Zeke glared at Do-cheol as if telling him to speak.

Do-cheol opened his mouth trembling.

[I said I needed it to put that curse on you!]

“What kind of curse are you talking about?”

At Zig’s cold voice Do-cheol rolled his eyes here and there and soon opened his mouth.

[Drake! It was said to be a curse to destroy Drake!]
