A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 434



Episode 434

‘boss?’

Boris looked in disbelief at Zeke blocking his path.

Zeke said as he watched Boris’ body which had almost been burned by the healing factor regenerate.

“Boris you will not retire until I give you permission.”

Boris smiled without realizing it at Zeke’s words.

Just by his presence in front of me I could not feel the intimidation that Abel gave off at all.

Zeke said looking away from Boris and glaring at Abel who was holding Zahhak.

“It’s been a while Abel.”

Abel glared at Zeke with mad eyes.

“Zeke…Zeke Draker….”

“Yes it’s me. Abel you… you look quite unwell.”

Zig who possessed the power of the Three Eyes could see Abel’s condition at a glance.

Abel who died by his hand had already lost his soul and was only left as an empty shell.

Zeke shook his head at the cruelty of Ramon Siemens who went to such lengths to protect Abel’s reputation.

He held Bahamut and glared at Abel.

“You probably didn’t want to live like this either. I’ll let you go cleanly out of brotherly love.”

As soon as he finished speaking a holy light rose from Zeke’s body.

Then a black flame burst out fiercely from the Zahhak that Abel was holding.

“Kill him! Kill him! Kill him!”

Abel engulfed in flames rushed towards Zeke.

Phew!

Zeke lightly swung Bahamut and blocked Abel’s sword.

Boom!

A powerful collision occurred sending waves ripples through the surrounding area.

Abel stepped back with a pained expression on his face as he felt the recoil throughout his body.

But Zeke’s expression didn’t change at all.

He looked at Abel with an indifferent face and said:

“Abel has really become weak.”

Abel was a knight who had risen to the level of a black knight even though he had borrowed the power of baptism.

However the current Abel could only emit an undying black flame and there was no trace of him ever having reached the level of a black knight.

Abel picked up Zahhak and sparked again.

Whoosh whoosh!

Looking at the blazing flames Zeke lifted Bahamut and invoked the power of freezing.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

The black flames that had been flying around Zeke’s body froze in that shape.

The power of freezing froze the flame that Abel had created.

As Zeke moved forward the area of ​​the freeze widened as he moved.

As soon as the surroundings froze Abel who had started the fire stepped back in confusion.

“Kill him! Kill him! Kill him Zeke Draker!”

Zeke spoke softly as he watched Abel who kept repeating that he would kill him even while retreating.

“Do you remember why you had to kill me Abel?”

To Zeke’s question Abel did not answer and just kept repeating that he would kill.

‘This is already a situation where normal thinking is impossible.’

I had hoped so but there was no need to waste any more time on the soulless shell.

After blocking Abel’s flames with the power of freezing Zeke moved his feet again and slowly approached Abel.

The black flame was the ability of Zahhak the sword of Terracan Draker held by Abel.

If the sword was taken away there would be nothing more Abel could do.

Woohoo!

Zeke’s sword was imbued with the power of the spirit.

Zeke lightly swung his sword which contained the will to cut.

Crunch-

Abel’s arm covered in the scales of the dragon fell off in vain.

Abel’s arm holding Zahhak rolled on the floor.

When Abel saw this he screamed instead of saying he would kill him.

“Kaaaaaaah!”

It seemed like he was screaming in anger at the fact that his arm had fallen off rather than because he felt pain.

Abel’s scream echoed throughout the crumbling tomb.

As the sword fell to the ground along with his arm the black flames that Abel had unleashed began to slowly die down.

Zeke said aiming his sword again.

“The cursed dragon heart that was transplanted into your body. I don’t know what Ramon Siemens plans to do with it but I’m going to destroy it properly this time.”

He focused all his strength on the sword he aimed at Abel.

Abel felt threatened by the current situation and panicked trying to step back.

But Zeke’s sword was faster.

Phew!

Zeke’s sword with its strong will pierced Abel’s heart.

Kkwadduk!

A hole opened in Abel’s heart with a bone-crunching sound.

“Krrrrrrr!”

Abel knelt down holding his pierced heart.

But even though the attack was successful Zeke felt something strange.

‘There is no dragon’s heart?’

Surprisingly the cursed dragon’s heart did not exist in Abel’s body.

It was when Zeke was trying to approach Abel who was kneeling in a situation he could not understand.

Wooooow!

The space behind Abel split open and something popped out.

Chuck! Chuck! Chuck!

Four knights standing next to Abel.

Each of them wore a red blue black and white herion.

Zeke was surprised when he saw them.

‘Could these guys be… the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse?’

These four horsemen known as the Riders of the Apocalypse appeared in the previous life when the Roman Empire was expanding its territory by attacking the entire continent and were symbols of fear to the Northern Alliance.

When the Horsemen of the Apocalypse appear only death will fall on the battlefield so much so that even the rugged and brave knights of the North tremble in fear.

Zeke vividly recalled the time when he had seen the Riders of the Apocalypse suddenly appear when he had been involved in the war as a member of the Northern Alliance.

At that time Zeke was guarding the high ground with the Allied Forces in a fortress built by dwarves. The fortress was so solidly built that it could be called an iron fortress. And at some point during that siege those four knights appeared.

Although the situation was clearly not unfavorable for the Northern Alliance the appearance of the Riders of the Apocalypse completely changed the situation.

Within a week the fortress was overrun by Imperial forces and many were killed.

By losing the strategically important high ground to the Imperial Army the Northern Allied Forces were forced to open the way to Himonas where their headquarters were located.

If the Horsemen of the Apocalypse had not appeared on the battlefield at that time the situation might have been different.

‘I never thought the Horsemen of the Apocalypse would appear here.’

It was a much faster appearance than when it first appeared in its previous life.

While Zeke hesitated at the unexpected appearance the Horsemen of the Apocalypse drew their swords and surrounded Abel.

From the red rider’s sword flames flowed from the blue rider’s sword cold from the black rider’s sword poison and from the white rider’s sword electricity flowed.

The Horsemen of the Apocalypse walked forward towards Zeke.

Their eyes flashed inside their helmets as they swung their swords at Zeke.

Kwakwakwakwa!

Flames cold poison and electricity all flew towards Zig at the same time.

Kwakwakwakwang!

Zeke evaded the knights’ attacks with his whirlwind and then immediately used his magic countercurrent technique.

Kkieeeeeeing―

However even though Zeke used the magic counter-flow technique the four riders were not affected at all.

‘At least that means it’s not the power of a magical weapon.’

If they were artifacts it would have been easier to deal with them but the Riders of the Apocalypse were not such easy opponents.

As if to prove it four knights scattered around Zeke and each aroused the four attributes of energy given to their swords in a stronger manner.

Kookookookook!

The first to rise was the White Rider.

Phage phage phage!

As Zeke crossed swords an electric current created by the White Rider enveloped his body.

If he had been a normal knight just facing the white knight and the sword would have sent an electric current through his entire body turning him into a lump of charcoal and collapsing.

However since Zeke was not an ordinary knight the current emitted by the White Rider did not have much effect on him.

Tsk tsk tsk―

The speed at which the body recovered from the effects of immortality and healing factor was faster than the speed at which the body was fried by the current.

However even as a Zeke he could not help but feel the tingling pain but with the successive attacks Zeke had completely adapted to the electricity.

Feeling that he could handle the pain Zeke took out his sword with one hand and his hammer with the other.

Then he swung his hammer with golden power towards the white rider.

Boom!

There was a loud noise and the white rider hit by the hammer flew to the other side.

Shaking him off Zeke tried to run straight to where Abel was.

But there were four riders of the Apocalypse. The blue rider immediately blocked Zeke’s path.

Kkwadduk!

A powerful cold energy emanated from the sword wielded by the Blue Rider.

The cold was so strong that even a simple brush with that attack would have frozen the entire body of an average knight but it was of no use against Zeke.

Jeez jeez jeez!

Zeke used his power of freezing to resist the Blue Rider’s cold.

Instead the Blue Rider’s legs were frozen by Zeke’s power.

Zeke swung his hammer at the frozen blue rider.

Kwakwakwang!

There was a sound of armor creaking and the blue rider was thrown to the side.

“Haaaah!”

Zeke reached out towards Abel and blasted him with lightning.

Then the remaining red and black riders appeared in front of him and raised their shields to block Zeke’s attacks.

Support support support support support―

Zeke didn’t stop there and swung his hammer straight at the two knights.

Kwakwakwang!

The Black Rider’s shield was dug deep by Zeke’s attack.

However the attack was somewhat concentrated on the black rider and the red rider dodged it and swung his sword that was filled with flames.

Whoosh whoosh!

Flames poured down fiercely toward Zeke.

At that moment a strong wind blew from Zig’s body.

The field of elemental sword wind power was spread out.

Kwakwakwakwa―

A strong storm arose engulfing the Red Rider’s body and blowing him far away.

After blowing away all the riders Zeke ran straight towards Abel and swung his sword.

That was when.

Wooooow!

The space in front of Abel distorted and something appeared.

A hand suddenly appeared in the distorted space and deflected Zig’s sword.

Quaching!

Ziggy was thrown back by the strong rebound.

He was a little flustered but he remained calm and looked at the being that had burst through the space.

A warlock wearing a black hood.

Zeke looked at him with somewhat nervous eyes because of the ominous aura he gave off.

Then I realized his true identity.

“Harvey West.”

Harvey West the mad genius of Nirvana and the priest of the Abyss had appeared.

Yellow eyes glowed and flashed from inside the hood.

The priest opened his mouth to speak to Zeke.

“Zeke Draker. It’s nice to see you like this.”

Instead of answering Zeke took out Roland and raised his sword.

Suddenly the Horsemen of the Apocalypse gathered again next to the priest.

‘Were the Horsemen of the Apocalypse the Knights of the Abyss and not Siemens?’

In my previous life I didn’t know about the existence of the Abyss so I simply thought they were knights secretly raised by the Empire.

However when I looked closely at the circumstances I learned in this life I saw that the powers of the Roman Empire and the Siemens Nostra Family Abyss were tightly intertwined.

The priest stepped forward and spoke to Zeke.

“I have been watching you for a long time Knight of Salvation.”

Zig holding Roland stepped forward towards the priest and spoke.

“You were just watching from behind gloomily but what made you reveal yourself when the wind blew?”

Zeke glanced at Abel’s fallen body behind the priest.

Then he slowly opened his mouth.

“That soulless husk must be quite important. To Narak and Siemens.”

Although he thought it was quite meaningful the priest showed no emotional agitation at Zeke’s words.

Instead he turned around in a calm manner and placed a hand on Abel’s shoulder.

Amazingly the cut-off arm began to bubble and a new arm sprouted from it.

“Euuuuuuuuu!”

At the same time Abel’s body which had been in the form of a dragon returned to its original human form.

After the priest took his hands off Abel’s body he spoke to Zeke.

“As you said it is only a shell but Abel’s body is important to us.”

“That must be because he is the medium that will resurrect the Demon King. If it weren’t for Abel’s body that accepted the dragon’s heart the Demon King’s soul wouldn’t be able to endure it.”

At Zeke’s words the priest’s eyes hidden under the hood were slightly shaken.

“The more I look at Zeke Draker the more I realize that he is truly an enigmatic being.”

But surprisingly there was a note of goodwill in the priest’s voice.

It seemed like he was genuinely curious and interested in the existence of Zikra.

The priest looked at Zeke and continued speaking this time with a feeling of pity.

“Your presence is amazing but if you continue to interfere with our work we can no longer stand by and watch.”

“It’s funny. You’re talking as if you’ve been overlooking me all this time.”

“Don’t you think so?”

With his words the priest revealed his hidden status.

Kugugugugugu!

The moment I felt the awe-inspiring force surging from the priest’s body I almost fell to my knees without realizing it.

‘This is….’

A realm beyond the power of the Black Knight.

Harvey West the priest of the Abyss possessed powers at least on a Grand Master level.

He slowly opened his mouth towards Zeke.

“Zeke Draker I have a proposition for you.”

When the priest finished speaking he extended his hand toward Zeke. Then he continued slowly.

“How about joining hands with me and getting rid of Arthur Draker?”
