A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 452



Episode 452

Bahamut which had a crude appearance surprisingly transformed into a cross sword similar to the Holy Sword Ascalon that had just been created.

However unlike Ascalon Bahamut’s sword had ancient letters engraved in silver on its face.

After the change a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[Black Sword Bahamut absorbs Holy Spear Longomiant completely releasing the seal.]

[The Black Sword Bahamut which has regained its original power is strengthened by the power of the Holy Relic.]

[Evolves into a legendary item granting the sword its true name.]

[The sword is named ‘Dark Sword Levatein’ which holds chaos.]

‘Levatein the dark sword that holds chaos?’

Zeke looked at the newly transformed Bahamut.

Then he reached out and grabbed Levatein.

The moment he took hold of the sword Zeke could feel it.

Although its name and appearance changed its essence remained the same as Bahamut.

Woooo …

Levatein also felt Zeke’s energy and trembled his sword and rang his sword’s name.

Zeke confirmed Levatein’s information.

―Information on the Black Sword Levatein―

Description: A sword of chaos imbued with the power of the Holy Spear Longomiant forged with blue flames by a master craftsman with the spiritual eye from the hardest fang of the cursed dragon Bahamut.

Unique Power: Chaos Period.

Unique Abilities: Indestructible Mana Conversion Shape-shifting Magic Absorption.

Special: Deals 5x damage to constellations and blood entities. / Can nullify the power of constellations when chaos is activated.

Zeke was astonished when he saw the description written on Levatein.

‘Can the power of the constellations be nullified?’

The constellations can use karma to manipulate causality at will and distort the laws of the world as they wish.

If it were possible to nullify such powers it would give a much greater advantage when dealing with the constellations.

It would also be of great help that when attacking with Levatein you could deal five times more damage to the constellations and the Holy Blood.

‘This will be useful when dealing with the fallen constellations that are trying to resurrect the Demon King.’

The Holy Sword Ascalon and the Dark Sword Levatein.

With two legendary swords Zigg was equipped to face the battlefield ahead.

Zeke was amazed to see the great sage display such miraculous abilities in the form of a spirit.

Even the great magician Hoshgar the founder of the Nirvana family who transcended human limitations and remained in a spirit form was unable to demonstrate this level of power.

‘He’s not a legendary figure for nothing.’

At that moment the great sage’s body became fainter than before.

He said looking at Zeke.

“It seems like I don’t have much time left. Sir Zeke please take this.”

The great sage reached out to Zeke.

A golden key floated above his palm flew through the air and penetrated into Zeke.

[You have obtained the Legendary Item Kronos Kingdom Report Key.]

[You will receive the title Successor of the Kingdom of Kronos as a reward for completing the linked quest mission.]

[It is possible to use the Key of Report as the successor to the kingdom.]

[Users can use items contained in the Kronos Kingdom Report for a certain period of time.]

[Some items require karma points for causality.]

The great sage looked at Zeke and said:

“The treasury of the Kingdom of Kronos now belongs to Sir Zeke. And this is my gift to you.”

The great sage took a monocle from his bosom.

He approached Zeke leading a blinking spirit and placed a monocle in his hand.

[You have acquired the Great Sage’s Monocle.]

[When equipped you can use the power of Celestial Vision.]

The great sage smiled at Zeke.

“I hope this gift will be of great help to you in navigating your destiny.”

A similarly blinking black dragon statue appeared next to the blinking great sage.

The Elder Dragon’s voice was heard in Zeke’s ears.

“You who defy fate it is time to leave this place.”

Kugugugugugu―

Zeke felt the temple and the entire city shake with a great tremor.

‘Is Carcosa collapsing?’

“This is an imaginary space made up of fragments of non-existent space-time. The longer you stay here the more you lose causality.”

Wooooow!

With those words a dimensional rift appeared behind Zeke’s body.

Within the dimensional rift a portal appeared and Zeke’s body was pulled into it.

Zeke shouted as he looked at the Elder Dragon and the Great Sage just before being sucked into the dimensional rift.

“If I am truly destined to destroy the Demon King! Please tell me! What should I do?”

At those words the great sage smiled with his spirit form gradually fading away and said:

“The signs of the end will guide you. Find a single ray of light in the midst of despair and follow its path.”

Woooo …

With those words Zeke’s body was completely sucked into the dimensional rift.

* * *

Kwakwakwakwa―

In the dimensional storm Zeke had to suffer pain that tore through his entire body.

‘Ugh!’

At that moment Raven appeared next to Zeke.

Woorurururu―

Hearing Raven’s phoenix song Zeke barely came to his senses.

A white light could be seen shining far away through the dimensional storm.

Zeke conveyed his will to Raven.

‘Raven let’s go there!’

Raven spread her wings and flew through the storm toward the light.

Zeke flew along the path that Raven had made.

He leapt into the light outpacing the swirling dimensional storm.

Woooo …

Zeke’s body was ejected out of the portal.

“Hoo hoo!”

Completely exhausted Zick could barely catch his breath.

If he had not possessed the constitution of immortality it was clear that his body would have been torn to pieces by the storm within the dimensional rift and he would have disappeared without a trace.

Soon thanks to the effects of infinite stamina my breathing returned and my body recovered.

Zig who had barely come to his senses checked the messages that appeared before his eyes.

[You have successfully completed the main quest mission.]

[New features of the system have been unlocked as main quest rewards.]

[All features of Defense Mode have been disabled.]

[System linking function is activated.]

[Direct control of the defense area including mobile fortresses is possible.]

[It is possible to use Karma Points to install weapons and defensive walls in the defense area.]

[Guardians and Administrators’ designated allies receive buff bonuses in the defense area.]

[All battles that take place in Defense Mode are linked to the administrator and karma points are calculated based on the results.]

[Active skill area buff changes to power amplification as a main quest reward.]

[10000 Karma Points will be awarded as compensation.]

[One random box outside the rank will be given as a reward.]

It seemed like I had received a reward for successfully completing the main quest mission.

Zig opened his mouth wide when he saw the compensation details.

“Are you saying that all karma points can be settled based on the results of battles in Defense Mode?”

Up until now in large-scale battles even when the Guardians defeated the enemies there were no Karma Points that were separately calculated for Zeke.

However if the information that has come out is correct it means that in the future not only the Guardians but also all those who participated in the battle will be able to receive karma points based on the battle results.

‘If it’s a large-scale battle against a monster army… you can obtain a huge amount of karma points.’

It was said that you could directly install weapons and defensive walls in the area where the defense mode was applied so it was clear that even if the gate opened and enemies rushed in all at once there would be more room for defense.

“From 10000 points to random boxes outside of the ranks… The rewards are huge perhaps because it’s a main quest.”

Zig decided to open the boxes outside of the grade later and first figure out where he was.

“Where is this place?”

Looking around all I could see was a barren plain nearby.

There were broken pillars and traces of old foundations here and there but they were so worn that it was difficult to recognize their original form.

‘It looks like an old ruin…’

Zeke tilted his head and pulled up the system map to check the location.

[Check the location of the administrator.]

[Unable to find location information for the corresponding coordinates.]

[View the relevant karma data and update the new location information.]

‘Can’t find location information? Where the hell am I….’

Soon the location information will be updated and the empty map will start to fill in.

Even after looking at the map Zig couldn’t pinpoint where this place was.

‘Please indicate the location in the System Continent map.’

[Updated continent map with relevant location information.]

After a while a picture of the continent appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

However the appearance was a little different from usual. It was because the Eastern Continent was marked along with the Central Continent on the continent map.

There Zeke’s current location was pointing to a point on the Eastern Continent.

Seeing this Zeke was a little embarrassed.

‘Could this be the Eastern Continent right now?’

But then it happened.

Doo doo doo doo doo!

Across the plain soldiers on horseback could be seen riding toward Zig.

Zeke took out his dark sword Levatein and watched the soldiers running towards him.

Eastern warriors wearing Murk Empire style armor and carrying scimitars on their waists stopped before Zigg.

They were carrying a colorful flag and Zik was astonished to see the patterns on it.

‘A badge with a double-headed eagle. It is the symbol of the Sultan of Murugan Empire.’

An eastern warrior carrying a flag bearing the Sultan’s symbol shouted at Zik.

“You barbarian of the West! Why have you trespassed against the Sultan’s prohibition!”

With those words the warriors behind them drew their scimitars and aimed them at Zeke.

As Zeke escaped from Carcosa he realized that the exit of the connected portal was connected to a forbidden passage by the Sultan and that he had inadvertently entered it.

‘Are you saying that this is where Carcosa used to be?’

The Elder Dragon said that in the Age of the Constellations the continents were not divided like they are now but were connected as one continent.

If that was the case it wouldn’t have been strange at all if there had been Carcosa on the Eastern Continent.

‘Come to think of it the ancestors of the High Elves also lived on the Eastern Continent and moved their territory to the Northern Continent. If the continent hadn’t been divided like it is now it might have been easier to travel back and forth.’

When Zeke did not respond the Sultan’s warriors stepped forward.

And then light began to flicker from the blades of the scimitars they held.

Wooooowoong―

The light of the scimitar imbued the warriors’ bodies.

Zeke realized that these were not mere warriors but ‘successors’ of the East.

The successors of the East used weapons that sealed ‘genies’ which were a cross between spirits and ghosts and called them ‘demon spirit weapons’.

The successors used a unique fighting style utilizing this demon’s weapons.

Hwarurururuk―

Flames burst from the sword of one of the warriors.

It meant that the weapon he was holding had a spirit of flames sealed in it and that he had inherited it.

The other warriors also released their magical powers and slowly approached Zigg.

At that time Zeke used the magic countercurrent technique.

Jiiiiiing―

As the countercurrent spread around the magical powers of the weapons controlled by the Successors began to intertwine.

“Ugh!”

If he had adjusted the output here more strongly he could have reversed their magic and defeated them all at once but Zeke adjusted the reverse current only enough to make them retreat.

Zeke looked at the Eastern warriors who had stepped back and pondered what to do.

‘If this is the Murk Empire… it’s worth proposing a deal. Besides Hades and Yellin might still be staying in the Sultan’s palace.’

Since it had come to this I thought it would be better to meet the Sultan and take Hades and Yelin back with me.

Zigg spoke to the warriors in the Eastern language.

“I didn’t enter this forbidden area on purpose. I had an accident while coming through the portal.”

The warriors looked surprised at the natural Jig’s eastern defense.

Among them who hesitated for a moment the one who seemed to be the leader spoke.

“Even so the crime of trespassing on the Sultan’s holy land is serious. Put down your weapons and surrender obediently. Your crime will be judged by wise judges.”

At those words Zeke shook his head.

“I am not a sinner. I was invited to the palace as the Sultan’s guest.”

The faces of the Eastern warriors turned fierce at Zeke’s words.

“You dare to make false excuses in the name of the Sultan… Your sin is even more serious you barbarian….”

Without even listening to the end of the story Zeke called out to Raven who was staying in the dimensional rift in front of them.

Kurururururu!

Raven who appeared near Zeke’s shoulder rubbed her eyes with her foot as if she was sleepy.

Raven who had grown rapidly was now as large as an eagle. In addition as her body grew her colorful feathers became more colorful than before.

The warriors of the East retreated in terror when they saw Raven revealing herself.

“Oh my god! That’s… a poem!”

“Look it’s a phoenix! An auspicious sign has appeared in the holy land!”
