A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 413



Episode 413

Keeeeeeek!

Zeke raised his sword and drew forth his spirit.

He drew up his will to defend and materialized the shape of a giant shield.

The amorphous clones rushed towards Zigg but were blocked by the shield he had created.

Kkwadduk!

Zig summoned the will to cut towards the clones blocked by the shield’s shape.

Kookookookook―

The shape of a huge greatsword appeared above his sword.

Zigg immediately swung his true will in the form of a greatsword.

Kwakwakwakwa―

The form of the great sword raised by Bahamut’s sword cut through the amorphous clones.

Srrrrrrrr—

The willpower-filled Honshinki was capable of cutting down even formless demons.

The clones made a creaking sound and soon began to melt into jelly-like shapes.

Cheeeeeeek!

The clones which had turned into acidic liquids evaporated emitting a terrible stench.

Zeke realized that he could use his psychic powers with much less strain than he had previously when he had used psychic powers.

‘Because the consumption of spiritual power was high I didn’t actively use it in battle… but its efficiency has greatly increased.’

Before meeting Nigel I used the magic of speaking to exert all my energy but it ended up draining my spiritual power even more.

Zeke grabbed his sword and aimed it at the main body not the clone.

As the clones he had created were easily destroyed by Zeke’s attacks the main body of the demon began to stir again.

Kururururururu―

Different types of legs began to sprout from his body and soon he was crawling on the ground with hundreds of disgusting legs.

Then the flesh split open and a mouth with sharp teeth appeared.

The demon immediately rushed towards Zeke.

Keeeeek―

Then his tongue came out of his mouth and tried to wrap itself around Zig.

Quaching!

Zeke swung his sword and struck out the tongue and surprisingly there was a metallic sound.

‘What is the body made of?’

It moved flexibly like a living thing but was stronger than steel.

At that moment the mouth of the demon’s body opened wider and other tongues came out from within it.

Wheeeeeek!

Dozens of steel tongues flew towards Zeke like whips.

Seeing this Zeke immediately flew up on the dragon’s wings.

Then he used Power Freeze on the tentacles in the air.

Tsk tsk tsk―

The frozen tongues were fixed firmly in place.

Zig took out his hammer from his inventory summoned his will to strike and swung it at the frozen tongues.

Phew!

The image of a powerful crusher was embodied in the lecture’s will to deliver.

Kkwadddd …

The frozen tongues that were struck by the hammer filled with the will of the lecture were shattered.

As his attacks continued to fail against Zeke the demon retreated in confusion.

Gulp gurgle gurgle—

The flesh moved here and there and blinked its eyes.

Zeke saw such a trick and tied a chain to the hammer and spun it around.

“Okay now it’s my turn.”

He quickly threw down the hammer hanging from the chain filled with his strength and determination.

Hooooooooooo!

The hammer flew towards the demon with terrifying speed.

The demon quickly tried to retreat by moving its hundreds of legs but Zig’s hammer was faster.

Kkwadduk!

The sound of bones crunching echoed as the hammer struck flesh.

Keeeeeeek―

The demon screamed and tried to dig into the ground.

But Zeke didn’t just leave it at that.

Chorrrrrr—

As the chain wrapped around the demon’s body Zig unleashed a field of golden power and pulled with all his might.

The demon that was trying to dig into the ground had no choice but to be dragged out.

Zig held the chain in that state and unfurled the Holy Light.

Jiji …

A bolt of light shot through the chain and struck the demon’s body.

Keeeeeeek!

As the power of the Holy Light that burned magic penetrated into his body the demon twisted its body as if in pain.

Zeke looked at this and took out Roland with his other hand.

Woohoo!

At the same time Zigg who was wearing the masks of Hersion and Agamemnon held Roland and unleashed the skill of the blade of brilliant light.

As the powerful purifying force was felt the demon seemed to panic and tried to escape from the chains.

Zeke felt that this demon possessed powers similar to those of the shoe dragon he had previously faced.

‘Compared to that time it’s much easier to deal with them.’

As time passed Zeke also grew so it became possible to deal with him with much more ease than before.

But then a strange reaction occurred in the demon.

Grrrrrrrrr—

The demon’s body trembled and a hole appeared in its flesh.

Then it started to emit black steam from the hole.

Cheeeeeeek―

The black vapor emitted by the demon began to coalesce in the air.

‘What is that?’

The black vapor gathered into a sphere and a red eye appeared in the center.

As soon as it was completed the mass of flesh that Zeke had been restraining collapsed in an instant.

Kwarrrrrrrr—

The flesh poured out as if melting and the remains of countless demons flowed out and scattered.

‘What is that?’

All sorts of corpses including half-digested demons body parts and monsters with complete bodies were strewn about the floor wrapped in a sticky liquid.

Cheeeeeeek―

The liquid that flowed out together seeped into every corner and melted the bodies of the demons and monsters.

The ground of the basin soon became slick with melted demon water and monster fluids.

Seeing this Zeke realized that the mass of flesh he had been dealing with until then was not the actual body of the demon.

He looked at the black sphere with red eyes floating in the air.

‘Is that the main body of the demon?’

That was when.

Jiiiiiing―

A light flashed from the demon’s red eyes and red compressed air poured down toward Zeke.

Zeke hurriedly summoned the will of the room and tried to block the compression projectile.

But surprisingly the compressed air broke through the room’s will and poured down towards Zig.

Kwakwakwakwa―

Although Zig was momentarily flustered he trusted Hersion and took the compressed gun head-on.

Boom!

A powerful explosion occurred throwing Zeke backwards.

Cheeeeeeek―

The part of the armor that had received the compressed gas turned red but fortunately there were no other special problems.

But apart from that Zeke was a little confused as he had difficulty guessing the identity of the compressed gun that the demon had fired.

‘It doesn’t seem to be a magic cannon… What is this?’

Judging from the fact that it came through the main attack it didn’t seem like a normal attack.

Then the black sphere began to ripple.

Gulp gurgle gurgle—

Black tentacles stretched out in all directions from the sphere and flew towards Zig.

Wheeeeeek!

Zig flew into the air using his Dragon Wings skill.

Black tentacles extended from the demon and chased after Zeke.

He slashed at the tentacles with his blade of light.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

But as if by mist part of the tentacle disappeared and steam rose again creating the severed part.

‘No matter how much you cut it it’s no use.’

It was a strange demonic creature that did not seem to have a physical body but used physical force when attacking.

Zeke decided to attack the main body of the demon without dealing with the tentacles.

Ziggy who had turned in the air aimed his brilliant blade of light at the demon.

Woohoo!

His sword vibrated as he tried to cut down the demon’s hand in one stroke.

But at that moment the demon’s body dispersed like fog.

Choaaa …

Although Zeke attacked with the Blade of Light he was unable to cut through all of the fog that had spread in all directions.

Tsk tsk tsk―

Immediately afterwards the steam gathered behind Zeke again and he returned to his original form.

‘this….’

The ability of the demon to disperse like fog neutralized the Blade of Light.

‘If you don’t purify him at once he will continue to regenerate.’

At that moment azalea blossomed again from the demon’s body.

The demonic spirits came together and created a clone that looked exactly like the demon.

The demon instantly created several clones that resembled himself.

It was the same only smaller in size but had red eyes.

The clones moved slowly and surrounded Zigg.

As Zeke examined them the clones’ eyes flashed and they began firing compressed air towards Zeke.

Kwakwakwakwa!

Compressed projectiles flew in from all directions but Zeke calmly swung his sword to block them.

Quaching!

While blocking the pouring compressed air Zig thought about how to deal with the demon.

It was quite difficult to deal with a demon that had no substance.

At that moment something crossed Zeke’s mind.

‘I might be able to catch him with this.’

Zeke raised his sword and created a field of wind energy.

Phew!

A strong wind blew and swept the ground roughly raising dust.

Kugugugugugu!

Zeke hid his body in the dust.

Then the demon created more clones and tried to corner Zeke.

But then the demonic clones hidden in the dust suddenly began to disappear.

The demon noticed this and let out a scream.

Gooooooooo!

As if it was some kind of command the clones emerged from the dust and tried to move towards the main body.

But at some point the movements of the clones that were moving completely stopped.

No matter how much the main body commanded the clones did not move.

And then a huge shadow rose from the ground then quickly rose up and swallowed the clones.

Zig swallowed the clones with his absorption skill.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

The demon blinked his red eyes in confusion as his own clone was consumed by the shadows.

As the dust cleared Zig stepped out from the shadows and aimed his sword at the demon.

As soon as Zeke appeared the demon stretched out its tentacles again and tried to attack.

It was at that moment that the demon’s tentacles flew towards Zeke at high speed and were about to wrap around his body.

Kugugugugugu―

The tentacles could not go any further and stopped in the air.

The demon was confused when not only its tentacles but its own body itself stopped moving.

Zeke looked at the demon and reached out his hand.

“Power Shadow Rule.”

Tsk tsk tsk―

The black magic wand was unable to escape the shadow control power that Zigg had unleashed.

Just as the being that was subdued by the shadow could not move the demonic being that was originally made of a black spirit had its main body bound.

With the title Ruler of the Sunset Zeke’s shadow rule was more binding than before.

After binding the demon with his shadow domination Zig slowly approached the guy with Roland a blade of brilliant light in his hand.

Kkieeeeee!

A strange noise came out of the demon.

Zig spoke to the demon while holding the blade of light.

“I tried hard but this is all for now.”

Without hesitation he thrust the blade of light into the demon’s eye.

Kkaaaaaaah!

The demon who was bound by the shadows and unable to disperse into the fog screamed in agony as he was struck by the blade of light.

Tsk tsk tsk―

By the power of purification the demon slowly disappeared emitting black smoke.

At some point Zeke pulled out Roland and stepped back casting absorption towards the suffering demon.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

A shadow suddenly rose and wrapped itself around the demon’s hand.

Keeeeeee!

The demon was slowly sucked into the shadows in agony.

The demon completely sank into the endless black swamp created by Zeke’s shadow.

At the same time a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[I have been binge eating completely corrupted external species that have been eroded by magic.]

[The consumed stamina and mental power mana replenishes.]

[The ability of the absorbed external species is absorbed and the skill ‘Clone (A-grade)’ changes into the skill ‘Shadow Clone (A+-grade)’.]

[The ability of the absorbed external species is absorbed increasing the skill stealth proficiency.]

[The ability of the absorbed external species is absorbed increasing the proficiency of the skill.]

[2000 Karma Points will be awarded as compensation.]

[One special random box will be given as a reward.]

‘External species?’

I’ve heard of ancient bells and ideal bells but this was my first time hearing of an external bell.

Although it felt different from the usual demons I never expected it to be a completely separate species.

‘If I ask the teacher he will know.’

Deciding to ask again when he returned to the house in the forest Zeke approached the withered and dried tree lying in the middle of the basin.

‘It’s huge.’

If it hadn’t dried up it would have grown as large as the tree in Naga’s city.

Zeke walked toward the withered tree and placed his hand on its rough surface.

‘Find a secure area with a system seal.’

[Searching secure areas according to administrator’s command.]

[There are no security zones specific to this area.]

‘what?’

Naturally he had thought that the Earth God would be sealed here but when he was told that there was no security zone Zeke couldn’t help but be flustered.

‘Is this somewhere else?’

After much thought Zeke decided to take a closer look around.

He scanned the area around the dried tree looking for an entrance he could enter.

‘I’m sure there’s something there.’

Something caught Zeke’s attention as he tapped the wooden surface.

‘There is an empty space here.’

When Zeke tapped the spot hard enough the surface cracked and dried bark fell off in clumps.

“Here…?”

Surprisingly there was a staircase leading down into the hole created by the broken bark.
