A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 474



Episode 474

It is often thought that the Demon Race cannot lie because they are a race of contracts.

But this was a wrong idea.

The Demons do keep their contracts.

The problem is that we have to keep in mind that the contract may have been flawed in the first place.

The present case was one such case.

Anastasia smiled as she saw Zeke’s expression harden.

“Hmm? Why are you looking like that? I never said anything wrong.”

“I have no intention of joking. If you are truly the princess of the Demon World then keep your promise.”

At those words Anastasia laughed again holding her stomach.

“Haaah! Zeke Draker I must have been too kind to you. That’s why such a lowly human being speaks to me like this.”

For a moment Anastasia’s eyes burned red.

Kugugugugugu―

The aura she emitted caused cracks to form in the arena where Zeke was standing and the entire invasion fortress began to shake.

The demons in the stands screamed in confusion.

“Anastasia is upset!”

“We have to run away quickly!”

Since she had a temperamental personality that would change her mood dozens of times even on a regular basis she had to be aware of her feelings in order to properly protect her life.

But Zeke stood there proudly completely unfazed by Anastasia’s momentum.

Anastasia seeing this burst into laughter once again and said:

“You are a lowly human knight. I don’t know what you believe in to make you act so wild.”

As she spoke sharply and raised her hand the entire arena rose upwards matching Anastasia’s height on the stage.

Anastasia shook her head as she looked at Zeke with sharp eyes.

“From the moment you entered this realm it was impossible for you to resist me. In the realm of this invasion fortress I am an absolute being.”

Quaddudduk—

Dozens of chess golems surrounded Zigg including knights on horseback rooks carrying huge shields and bishops carrying long spears.

It was a powerful Golem Knights unit created by combining the power of the Invasion Fortress with Anastasia’s doll-making abilities.

Anastasia looked at Zeke and smirked.

“If you kneel down and offer me your soul right now I will love you and Nigel for a long time.”

After hearing that Zeke took out the holy sword Ascalon as if he had nothing more to say.

Woohoo!

Anastasia frowned as she looked at Ascalon which held the power of brilliant light.

“You’re going to struggle even though you know it won’t work… If you want to punish yourself there’s nothing you can do.”

She snapped her fingers and the chess golems rushed towards Zeke.

Kwakwakwakwa―

Knight and Bishop Rooks charged from all sides swinging their weapons at Zeke.

Even as the attack approached him Zeke just stood there with his sword raised looking as if he would be crushed by the chess golems at any moment.

But at some point the chess golems that were charging forward seemed to freeze and stopped in place.

Anastasia who had been controlling the chess golems with her doll-making ability couldn’t help but be flustered when her commands suddenly stopped working.

‘What what?’

Anastasia quickly activated her power again but no matter how hard she tried to move the golems it had no effect.

But then Zeke raised his hand.

Okay!

At his gestures the golems began to move in unison.

Anastasia opened her mouth wide when she saw this.

“Oh no… how on earth?”

Zeke reached out and ordered the golems to attack Anastasia.

The chess golems began to charge towards the stage where Anastasia who had created them was.

Kwakwakwakwa―

Anastasia’s eyes wavered for a moment when she saw this but she soon gestured towards the golems.

Parts parts parts—

The chess golems scattered into dust at her gesture.

Anastasia glared at Zeke through the disappearing remains of the golem.

“On the subject of humans…..”

Just now Zeke had used the power control he had absorbed from Do-cheol one of the evil spirits to move Anastasia’s golem.

Zeke said aiming Ascalon at Anastasia.

“Hand over the teacher. Otherwise you will regret it greatly.”

At those words Anastasia looked down at Zeke and said.

“Is that really so?”

She snapped her fingers again.

Then the barrier separating the stands and the arena disappeared.

The demons who had been watching the stadium from the stands just a moment ago screamed and jumped down towards the arena.

Grrrrrr!

Kwaaaaah!

Hundreds of screaming demons gathered towards Zigg.

Anastasia said looking at Zeke.

“I won’t kill you but I’ll stuff you alive next to me and cherish you.”

Seeing the demons rushing towards him Zeke slowly raised Ascalon.

Kwaaaaah!

It was when the demons rushed towards Zig and tried to tear him apart.

Phage phage phage!

Zeke raised the Holy Sword Ascalon completely above his head and let out a brilliant light into the sky.

At that sight the demons thought that a bolt of light would strike them and stopped for a moment and stepped back but there was no response.

Anastasia shouted at the demons.

“You’re just wasting time! Run in now and rip his limbs off!”

Grrrrr!

At Anastasia’s command the demons gathered again towards Zeke.

Then Zeke opened his mouth while looking at the demons.

“Then come and see for yourself!”

Phew!

This time Zeke swung the holy sword Ascalon at the demons.

Kwakwakwakwa!

A brilliant light spread out from the holy sword and the bodies of the demons that touched it were set ablaze.

“Kkaaaak!”

The demons howled in pain beyond imagination.

Immediately after the first attack Zeke lifted Ascalon and unleashed the will of light.

Woohoo!

A huge curtain of light was spread out and the demons who entered the area trembled in pain.

“Keuh-euh-euh!”

For beings with magic simply being exposed to the realm of the will of light was fatal enough.

Those who directly received the power of the constellations rather than the power of magic were able to relatively escape the destructive power of the Will of Light.

They held their sharp claws in pain and rushed towards Zeke.

Kaaaak!

A powerful claw slammed down from above as if trying to tear Zeke’s body apart.

But before it could touch the body Zeke’s shadow rippled and black blades shot out piercing the bodies of the demons.

Shushu shu shu shuk―

The bodies of the rushing demons disintegrated in an instant and fell to the ground.

Anastasia saw this and ground her teeth and shouted.

“Damn it! Get that lowly human! Kill him now!”

Then from the sky black crows spread their wings and flew towards the arena.

Kaaaaaaah!

Along with the ominous cry of a flock of crows magically-powered spears rained down from the sky.

Shhhhh!

Zeke crouched down and raised his Shadow Armor to block the spears pouring down from the sky.

Then he picked up the holy sword Ascalon and shot a brilliant light towards the sky again.

Phage phage phage!

As lightning flashes of light spread in all directions the crows in the sky fell to the ground half-burned.

Phew!

thud!

Anastasia ground her teeth as she watched Zeke who was not pushed back at all despite being surrounded by numerous enemies.

‘That son of a bitch….’

When she saw it it seemed that even if hundreds of mid-level and low-level demons came rushing in they wouldn’t be able to stop just one Zigg.

Anastasia had no choice but to call her men who were stationed at the front.

But then unexpected news came from his subordinates.

[Suddenly a vampire army appears here! Ugh! The leader of the army is a royal vampire!]

[It’s the Beast Tribe! Suddenly the Beast Tribe came down from the west and attacked from behind!]

Anastasia who received the situation from her subordinates via telepathy had an expression of disbelief.

‘Suddenly vampires and beasts attack from behind? That’s….’

Then something crossed her mind.

Anastasia shouted as she looked at Zeke who was still fighting numerous demons.

“You bastard…! Just to buy time!”

Zeke chuckled at Anastasia’s reaction.

‘I see you noticed.’

He never thought Anastasia would follow through on the bet in the first place.

Because I had dealt with the Demons many times I knew that those who used mental abilities were extremely cunning and could change their words at any time.

Zeke who knew it well had another purpose in coming here alone to have a showdown with Anastasia.

This was to buy time for Red Eye and the Western Allies to arrive.

Anastasia couldn’t control her anger when she found out that she had been hit in the back of the head by Zeke.

Before I knew it her expression had completely changed.

The madness and anger from before had disappeared replaced by a calm expression.

As her expression changed Anastasia’s eyes also changed.

The whites of the eyes disappeared and the entire eyeball turned black.

She said looking down at Zeke.

“Zeke Draker. I admit I underestimated you.”

Tsk tsk tsk―

Her attire also began to change.

Eventually she changed from wearing a flashy flashy dress to wearing a skin-tight leather outfit and the whole atmosphere was completely different from before.

Anastasia raised her finger and aimed it at Zeke.

Then he slowly opened his mouth.

【Kneel down.】

Language that was not spoken through sound but through ‘will’ flowed from Anastasia’s mouth.

Zeke’s body moved on its own even though he couldn’t understand what it meant.

thud!

Zeke got down on one knee.

I tried to get up somehow but it wasn’t enough.

‘Is this the power of the Demon King? It seems to be a power of the spirit series….’

Power could only be escaped by meeting power with power.

Zeke tried to use his powers to escape the powers Anastasia was using.

But it wasn’t easy to get away.

Anastasia seeing his resistance pointed at him again and opened her mouth.

【Hold your breath.】

With those words Zeke could no longer breathe.

‘Damn….’

As his breathing became restricted Zeke’s breathing became increasingly labored.

I needed to somehow get out of this situation but I couldn’t think of a clear alternative.

I had to find a way to break through it before I completely lost my breath.

A number of thoughts flashed through his mind.

‘The power to make someone follow your words. If this is some kind of sorcery… Wait if it is sorcery then the words themselves are important.’

For a moment Zeke’s shadow rippled and enveloped his body.

Tsk tsk tsk―

Anastasia shook her head as she saw Shadow Armor enveloping Zeke.

“If you think you can escape the chains I’ve put in place like that you’re very mistaken. Those chains will stick to you until you die.”

Anastasia waited calmly for Zeke to stop breathing.

I wanted to stuff it alive and then torture it but given the circumstances it seemed better to kill it.

‘There’s nothing I can do. The doll is only satisfied with Nigel….’

Anastasia who was continuing her thoughts looked back in surprise.

Nigel who had been sitting there until just a moment ago was nowhere to be seen.

‘Hey where?’

Anastasia looked around for Nigel in confusion.

Woohoo!

Then sensing an ominous aura she raised her head.

Nigel dressed in a dress was making a water gun with his bare hands and aiming it at Anastasia.

Anastasia raised a finger at her in surprise.

But it was too late. A burst of energy came out of Nigel’s hands.

Honshinki

Solo Spell

The will to break

Kwakwakwakwakwang!

Nigel’s full-out performance completely burned down the stage where Anastasia was.

Kookookookookook!

Anastasia gritted her teeth and rose from the rubble of the collapsed stage.

She woke up and looked in disbelief at Nigel standing in front of her.

“How on earth did you break the ‘go to sleep’ spell?”

Nigel said clicking his tongue.

“The worthless disciple woke me up.”

“What? What is that….”

Tsk tsk tsk―

Zeke who had been wrapped in shadow armor from behind appeared again.

To everyone’s surprise he had turned the Shadow Armor into a breathing tube and was forcibly breathing into his own body through a tube he had placed in his mouth.

Because they were only told to hold their breath they realized that they could breathe if there was air blown into them from outside.

Immediately afterwards Zeke hid his situation in the shadows and used the power of the Three Eyes to delve into Nigel’s mind behind him.

And he used his power on Zeke taking advantage of the moment when his strength was weakened to wake Nigel up.

Nigel and Zeke stood side by side pressuring Anastasia.

Anastasia facing the two gritted her teeth and shouted.

“Even so you guys who entered this area will never be able to escape from here! Rats in poison…!”

Tsk tsk tsk―

Before Anastasia could finish speaking the barrier of the invasion fortress cracked and the sky was revealed.

Woorururururu―

At the same time a mysterious divine being emitting five-colored light appeared.
