A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 447



Episode 447

When the name Zeke Draker came up Manna looked interested.

“You are talking about the Knight of Salvation. I heard that you became the disciple of Lord Nigel.”

Nigel became irritated at his words.

“What kind of disciple are you! Your skills are so lacking that I only taught you how to hold a sword!”

Nabu laughed at those words.

“You’ve lost all your money so how can you brag?”

Nigel breathed life into Naboo again. Then Manna clapped her hands together in prayer.

thud!

In that moment an aura spread from Manna’s body and Nigel’s killing intent disappeared as if it had been washed away.

Manna the last monk of the Daeragyo sect whose legacy was lost long ago had created an absolute defensive barrier.

Manna recited a short prayer and then said:

“Om Aranam Aradha Sabah… So Lord Nabu. Why do you need the power of the Knight of Salvation?”

Although the killing intent was gone Nabu opened his mouth to Nigel while still being strangled.

“Kekeke! Eugh. So that’s… That’s where the upper limit of karma is.”

When Nigel heard the words “Karma’s upper limit” he shook Nabu’s neck in his hand.

“Don’t try to muddle through and just tell me straight you rascal!”

Nabu made a pained expression and barely managed to open his fan.

Tsk tsk tsk―

The figure of Nabu who had disappeared for a moment suddenly appeared behind Manna. He avoided Nigel and spoke behind Manna.

“You’re such a nasty old hag. Anyway what that means is that if we go there Karma will realize our existence and open the way to the paradise.”

Even when he met Nabu’s words he looked surprised.

“The path to Peach Blossom Land is open… This means that the restrictions of the oath the leader made to us may be lifted.”

Nigel said through gritted teeth.

“What about Peach Blossom Spring? Do you think I should go to a place like a senior center?”

Nabu clicked his tongue at those words.

“It wouldn’t be strange if Old Nigel went there at any time. Honestly it’s ridiculous that such a monster still exists in the real world…”

Woohoo!

As Nigel regained his energy the absolute defensive barrier that Manna had set up began to ripple.

It took Nigel’s meeting to calm her down.

Nabu spoke while floating in the air in a long supine position and fanning himself.

“Anyway since we’re going straight to Peach Blossom Land we need a trustworthy agent.”

I met that Nabu and asked him.

“Is there any reason why we shouldn’t select a reasonable number of Highlanders?”

At those words Nabu said with a slightly embarrassed expression.

“Well if you say it like that it might be true but if it were our kids they’d all be dead before we even got there.”

Nabu’s firm words startled Mannaga and she opened her eyes wide.

Nabu nicknamed the Hermit of Stories may seem easygoing but he never says anything wrong.

Since Nabu was very picky about people there being acknowledged by him meant that one was a very skilled person.

“For the Lord Nabu to say something like that. I am curious about the person known as the Knight of Salvation.”

Nigel said glaring at Nabu with a disgruntled expression.

“Fuck I get what you’re saying. Then hurry up and call that Zeke guy. He can destroy that place and then we can take out the rest of the demons.”

At those words Nabu again made an embarrassed expression.

“Oh that’s it. I’ve been trying to contact Zeke but I can’t get through to him because I don’t know what he’s doing.”

Nigel eventually exploded at Naboo’s words.

“This kid! Are you kidding me by calling a busy person right now!”

“Ah why are you mad at me! Is it my fault that you can’t contact me? Anyway it’s the same whether you’re a teacher or a student!”

Again while Nigel and Nabu were meowing Manna turned her head and looked outside the barracks.

He spoke to Nigel and Naboo in a low voice.

“I don’t think it’s time for us to fight among ourselves.”

Naboo and Nigel turned their heads and focused their attention on the place they were looking at.

Soon both of them were startled at the same time.

“What is this? A high-level demon… No this is the energy of the highest-level demon?”

Narak devised a way to summon high-level demons into the mortal world using artificial bloodstones.

However it was known that the maximum number of creatures that could be summoned using an artificial blood stone was only upper-level demons.

But the aura of the demon that I felt now was clearly that of a top-tier demon.

Nabu said with a serious expression.

“This thing there… is summoned with all of its full power. The wavelength itself feels different.”

Nigel nodded drew his sword and said

“These Narak bastards have summoned the highest level demons. Do you think they have ten lives left? Manna you hold on tight and don’t break the defensive barrier. Nabu don’t do anything else and try to contact Zeke until you do and when you do come back here quickly.”

Woohoo!

As her body rose into the air the power of the psychic body enveloped Nigel.

“I’ll catch that demon kid.”

Kwaaaaang―

With a huge explosion Nigel’s body left the barracks and ran towards where the demon’s energy was felt.

Nabu broke out in a cold sweat as he felt Nigel’s stormy energy.

“Oh my that old lady is strong too.”

When I looked back I saw that Manna was already sitting in the barracks concentrating and chanting.

It was to firmly maintain an absolute defensive wall to prevent the devil from entering.

Nabu took a mirror out of his bosom.

“Ugh Zig you punk answer the phone. Hurry up.”

“Solomon obtained the power of immortality.”

Zeke’s eyes wavered as he heard the Elder Dragon’s words.

Zeke also wondered how the power of immortality was created and how it was passed down through the Draker family from Solomon.

‘The first immortal. Was that power a trace of dissonance created by a rift that escaped fate?’

A small crack called Irregular created by the God of Chaos.

The crack combined with several elements to create the unexpected result of immortality.

Zeke thought for a moment and then asked the Elder Dragon.

“Didn’t King Solomon seek immortality from the beginning?”

『The power of immortality is a contradiction that mortals cannot possess. Even Solomon cannot intentionally create such a contradiction. This is the result of the crack created by the god of chaos.』

It was surprising that the only immortal with the power to kill a constellation could have arisen simply by chance.

Then the elder dragon continued speaking.

“Solomon pondered what he could do after becoming immortal. And the path he chose was something even I could not have predicted.”

Zeke heard the elder dragon’s words and guessed what it was.

“Did you start committing murder from that time?”

『Solomon knew that he had become immortal and could not be destroyed so he wanted to save the earth from the clutches of the constellations.』

Since it was the same story in the end Zeke nodded and took out Solomon’s ring from his inventory.

“Then did you also receive this ring when you started your new life as a priest?”

『Solomon created the initial form of the system using the Akashic Code. After receiving the system I too was able to manipulate karma. That ring was the first artifact I created while working with karma and it was intended to seal away evil beings.』

Zeke sensing something strange after hearing the Elder Dragon’s words asked.

“Then it wasn’t created from the beginning for the purpose of sealing the fallen constellations?”

『In the age of the constellations there were many dangerous beings not only among the constellations but also on Earth. In order to protect his people Solomon did not borrow the power of the constellations but instead stood up and fought against those beings himself sealing his soul in a ring.』

In the system description it was written that Solomon’s Ring was used to seal fallen constellations and high-level demons so I didn’t think it had any other uses.

‘It seems that originally it was possible to seal other souls as well.’

But then suddenly the floor and walls began to shake.

Ddddddddd—

Zeke felt a huge vibration and asked the Elder Dragon.

“What is this all of a sudden?”

Support support support support―

The statue of the elder dragon on the throne blinked and disappeared and reappeared repeatedly.

“They are the guys.”

Sparks flew from the dragon statue placed on the throne.

Phage support support –

As Zeke approached the dragon statue the Elder Dragon’s voice pierced his ears.

“I feel like I’ve used up too much of the causality I have left.”

As the sparks flew stronger currents flew in all directions.

The Elder Dragon’s words continued in a halting manner as the dragon statue blinked.

『This place Carcosa… exists but does not exist… exists in a fragment of space and time… lacks causality… can be invaded by them…』

Zeke repeated the words as he heard the elder dragon’s interrupted words.

‘In the fragments of space and time? What the hell is this guy…?’

Kiiiiiik―

A terrible sound echoed throughout Daejeon.

‘What is this sound?’

Something was creeping through the gap between the ceiling and the wall of the room.

Tentacles dripping acidic fluid through cracks in the wall revealed sharp teeth.

Zeke knew what these tentacles were.

‘Is that an outsider?’

A part of the tentacle swelled and split open revealing an eyeball.

The eyes that popped out of the tentacles glared at Zeke.

The tentacles of an alien species suddenly appeared and gradually wrapped around the pillars of the Great Hall and descended.

Then he straightened his body like a snake’s head and slowly approached where Zig was.

As the outside world appeared the electric storm surrounding the dragon statue on the throne intensified.

The Elder Dragon’s voice flickered again.

『Connection… Zeke Draker… To the north of the city… There is a temple there….』

With those words the dragon statue completely disappeared.

Zeke didn’t hear the full story but he knew it was time to move.

He immediately took out Roland and equipped Hersion.

He aimed his sword at the dozens of tentacles approaching him.

“Come and see.”

Keeeeeeek―

The tentacles all rushed towards Zig.

In that moment a surge of energy from the Holy Spirit surged through Roland.

Jiji …

A white lightning bolt shot out in all directions from the holy light that rose above Zeke’s head.

Kieeeeeek―

The tentacles that were hit by the lightning of light were burned black but they quickly regenerated and expanded into multiple tentacles.

Seeing that sight Zeke wearing Agamemnon’s mask unleashed a blade of brilliant light and struck down the tentacles.

Choaaaak―

Acidic fluid spurted out from the cut section.

Cheeeeeeek―

It was so poisonous that the stones where the liquid fell were corroded and crumbled into pieces.

No matter how much Zeke cut them off the tentacles continued to grow and increase in number.

‘There’s no end to this.’

First Zeke used his power of freeze to stop the tentacles’ movements.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

A cold air containing the power of freezing spread out from his body.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

The tentacles that touched the cold froze and became motionless frozen in place.

Zeke succeeded in stopping the tentacles’ movements with his power of freezing.

‘I should go north during this gap….’

Then one of the frozen tentacles suddenly began to turn red.

Cheeeeeeek―

Then surprisingly he released the cold air created by his power and started moving again.

Cheeeeeeek―

The other tentacles also turned red and one by one they released their power of freezing and bared their teeth at Zeke.

Kaaa …

‘What kind of people are they unleashing their powers on themselves? This is a first for me…’

Zeke immediately released his power of freezing and swung his sword at the tentacles.

He dodged the flying tentacles and used his dragon skill and soul attack at the same time.

Kwakwakwakwa-

The dragon’s claws and sharp will cut through the tentacles.

However the severed tentacles continued to regenerate and increase in number.

The number of tentacles had clearly increased compared to before.

‘What an annoying bunch of guys.’

But then something crossed Zeke’s mind.

I remember using the elemental power of the Elemental Sword to fix the statue of the Goddess Theia that was about to pop out of the outer shell.

‘What if it’s an elemental sword?’

Zeke immediately grabbed Roland and summoned the power of the Elemental Sword.

“Hoooooo.”

The Elemental Sword was so powerful that even Zigg had a hard time controlling its power.

Because of this it was important to control it as it could easily run wild.

Zeke created a field of firepower that was the most powerful of all the elemental swords.

Hwarurururuk―

Pure fire arose from his sword.

‘You can control it up to here. What’s important is when you swing the sword.’

The tentacles rolled their eyes and crawled along the walls floor and ceiling toward Zeke.

And then at some point the tentacles shot out like lightning.

Kaaa …

Zeke immediately grabbed his sword and took a step forward.

Elemental Sword

Field of firepower

White Flame Dance

The blazing white flames dyed the entire Daejeon white.
