A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 487
by Hectopascal(헥토파스칼 )
Episode 487
Yellin’s cold gaze pierced through Peter and Howard whose bodies were paralyzed by the poison.
The Bloodline Ability users and Draker’s knights behind them tried to find an opening to move but the swords of the mystics placed around their necks were emitting sharp auras.
Yellin said looking at Howard.
“There are rats like this wherever you go. Tell me how to deal with the one who betrayed his family in Himel Ishtar.”
Himel said glaring at Howard as if he was looking at a bug.
“After cutting off their limbs they spread honey all over their bodies and throw them under the hot sun in a place where there are fire ants.”
Fire ants have a very weak venom.
Because of this even if ants stick to your whole body and eat your skin you will only feel pain and not die.
Ishtar never lets traitors die easily.
Yellin approached Howard and held Annexy’s dagger to his neck saying:
“I wonder how Draker will deal with the traitor.”
Howard shook his head in fear unable to even look at Yellin’s beauty.
‘Who would do something like this… Seriously Carly? Did she betray me!’
However the conclusion was not readily reached. From Carly’s perspective who had also defeated Zeke her help was needed to gain the support of the Council of Elders.
I couldn’t see why Kali would have to use Ishtar to strike herself.
Kwakwakwakwang!
Again there was a loud explosion outside.
As Yellin gestured to Himel she took a small bottle out of her bosom and threw it on the floor.
Cheeeeeeek―
The bottle broke and purple smoke flowed out from it.
The Bloodline ability users and Draker’s knights inside the room were subdued and had no choice but to inhale the smoke.
“Ugh!”
Soon they stumbled backwards.
And at that moment something burst out of the purple smoke.
Kwaaaaak!

A monster of a type I had never seen before was rushing at me.
The Bloodline ability users and knights were surprised and swung their swords and used their abilities at the monster.
Kwakwakwa―
A powerful aura blade flew towards the monster.
The monster’s neck fell off and it fell to the ground bleeding profusely.
But then another monster popped out from behind.
The whole place was filled with monsters.
“Die! Die!”
Drake’s knights and bloodline ability users swung their swords at the monsters they saw everywhere.
The room was nothing short of a tragedy.
Because the knights and those with bloodline abilities who had inhaled the hallucinogen made with Ishtar’s secret arts were fighting each other as if they were going to kill each other seeing each other as monsters.
“Kwaaah!”
“Die! Die!”
Himel opened the door and let them out.
The knights and bloodline users who rushed outside after seeing hallucinations of being chased by monsters were sure to cause further chaos in the underground base.
Peter and Howard who had been injected with antidote in advance stood frozen and trembling as they watched this tragedy.
After all the knights and bloodline ability users in the room left Ishtar’s mystics tried to take the two people outside.
“Over there!”
But then the Nostra Family combat agents guarding the underground base rushed to rescue Peter the executive.
Kwakwakwa!
They tried to use their bloodline powers to suppress the mystics of Ishtar.
At the same time we opened the cage we had brought in and released the ferocious chimeras.
Kwaaaaah!
Chimeras horrifying creatures that seemed to have been created by stitching together the limbs of various monsters charged at the Ishtar sorcerers.
Then Yellin stepped forward and leaped into the air holding Annexy’s dagger.
Phew!
Yellin flew up on the wind created by the wind spirit and charged her dagger with the power of chakra slicing down the chimera in one breath.
Choaaaak―
The chimera split in a straight line from head to toe fell to the ground splitting to the sides.
The Crow Unit also quickly ran up the wall and subdued the combatants using their blood-based abilities.
It was at that time that Ishtar’s side began to seize the opportunity to win.
Kwakwakwakwa―
The entire hallway was engulfed in flames.
Yellin screamed as she saw the flames engulfing her.
“Get down!”
She summoned the spirit of the earth and created a wall of earth in an instant.
The solid earthen wall blocked the flames allowing Ishtar’s mystics to escape unharmed but the Bloodline ability users and chimeras outside were engulfed in flames and turned to ash.

Kookookookookook!
Yellin looked through the broken walls to see something sparking.
‘That’s….’
It was a being with two horns and red skin with flames covering its entire body.
Yellin realized that the being was not human but a demon.
‘Did the Nostra Family also summon demons?’
She had heard from Zeke that a group of black magicians called Narak were summoning demons.
But what she was dealing with now was the Nostra Family and the being in front of her was clearly a demon.
The demon surrounded by flames opened his mouth wide.
“Ugh.”
Another flame burst from his mouth.
Yellin gathered his wits to build the wall again but he wasn’t sure if he could withstand a stronger flame than before.
She shouted at Himel.
“Take them out of here while I hold them off!”
In Ishtar the orders of the superiors were absolute.
Himel gritted his teeth when he heard Yellin’s words but soon nodded and ran towards the exit with his men.
Soon the demon began to breathe flames.
Kwakwakwakwa!
Yellin built a wall to block the flames.
Kookookookookook!
The flames emitted by the demons strongly pushed back the earthen wall built by Yellin.
“Ugh!”
Yellin also summoned the wind spirit and created a vacuum wall.
But the Demon’s flame ignored this and forcefully pushed towards Yellin thrusting its rough teeth into him.
There was a chance that Yellin would be caught in the flames.
Yellin clenched his teeth as he saw the Himel unit disappear from sight.
‘You have to step back at once.’
I felt like I would be swept away if I didn’t retreat all at once to a place where the flames wouldn’t reach.
Yellin took a deep breath.
In an instant a blast of flames ripped through the earthen wall and headed toward her.
Hoooooooong―
Yellin quickly stepped back trying to get out of the range of the flames.
But then something unexpected happened.
A flame that had dug deep into the ground appeared behind Yellin and struck from the front and back at once.
The red flames gaped open like the mouth of a devil trying to swallow Yellin.
“Ugh!”
Yellin tried to avoid it by twisting her body hastily but the flames moved faster.
Fire engulfed Yellin.
Whoosh whoosh!
Yellin shut her eyes tightly and waited for the demon fire to engulf her entire body. However even after a while she felt nothing on her body.
She raised her head and looked ahead.
The black light in front of Yellin.
Zeke holding the Holy Sword Ascalon was guarding Yellin while blocking the flames.
‘Sir Zeke?’
Hooooooooooo!
Zeke was controlling the flames with his power to prevent the flames of the demon tribe from reaching Yellin.
It was a powerful fire that could melt even a stone wall but it was of no use to Zeke.
He waved his hand caught the flames and spoke to Yellin.
“Please rest for a moment Yellin. I will go and sort that out.”
Zeke stepped forward leaving Yellin behind.
The demon blasted the flames strongly towards Zigg again.
Kwakwakwakwa!
But Zeke raised his left hand and easily blocked the demon’s flames this time too.
It was as if flames were being sucked into his hands.
Zig who was watching it opened his mouth towards the demon.
“I guess you’re confident in playing with fire.”
Kookookookook!
Within seconds a field of elemental sword firepower unfolded from Zeke’s hand.
A dazzling blue flame bloomed from his body.
“Then let’s go somewhere and have fun.”
Kwakwakwakwa!
The blue flames that rose from Zig’s body quickly ran away consuming the demon’s flames.
Kaaaak!
The demon screamed and breathed flames but they could not stop the blue flames.
Soon the blue flames spread to the demon’s limbs.
Support support support support―
The fire demon tribe which had strong resistance to fire was burning.
Kkaaaak!
The sensation of being ‘burned’ which they experienced for the first time in their lives brought terrible pain and fear to the Hwama tribe.
He tried to escape from there forcing himself to hold back his burning body.
But that was impossible.
Choaaaak―
This was because the sword strike of Ascalon that Zeke had unleashed cut off both of the Fire Demon’s legs.
thud!
The Fire Demon lay on the ground groaning in pain as the flames burned his body.
Zig approached and pressed his foot against the Hwama tribe’s neck looking down at the demon tribe with cold eyes.
“Even the Nostra Family guys summon demons. They use everything from dogs to cows as demons.”
He illuminated the Hwama tribe with the light of the Holy Spirit.
Cheeeeeeek―
The skin of the Fire Demon tribe exposed to the light of the Holy Spirit boiled.
But then something amazing happened.
Thud!
The red fire demon’s skin began to crack and break.
‘what?’
Zeke felt something strange as he watched the fire demon writhing beneath his feet.
In the case of the real demons when they used the Holy Sword Ascalon or the Holy Spirit they would feel great pain but unlike now their bodies would turn to ashes and scatter. However this fire demon reacted differently.
Zeke asked Arataso in a situation he had never seen before.
‘Is this guy a demon?’
Then Arataso’s voice rang out.
‘That’s not a demon.’
‘What? You’re not a demon?’
‘Yes that’s a human. It’s just possessed by the spirit of a demon.’
‘The spirit of the demon possessed a human? It wasn’t summoned?’
After hearing Aratasso’s words Zeke was reminded once again that this was none other than the Nostra Family’s laboratory.
‘Could these guys be?’
Zig quickly read the information of the Fire Demon Tribe with the wisdom of a dragon.
In an instant relevant information seeped into Zig’s mind.
Through the information he read Zeke realized the true identity of this demon tribe.
‘You crazy guys. You’re summoning a mid-level demon using a flame-type bloodline ability user?’
It was a summoning method I had never heard of or seen before.
The general method of summoning demons was to draw up a summoning ritual and pay a certain price to the demons so that their souls in the demon world could be incarnated and remain in the phenomenal world.
Therefore the demons that appeared in the phenomenal world were in a state similar to being fixed in a spirit form.
But the Nostra family took a different approach.
It was to inject a strengthening agent made from corrupted holy blood into a person with the same abilities as the demons they wanted to summon strengthening their physical and bloodline abilities and then having the demon’s soul possess their body.
In this way since the soul is a demon but the body is human it is possible to bring a mid-level or higher demon into the phenomenal world without being subject to the limitations of karma.
The demons possessing the bodies of humans in the phenomenal world were able to directly absorb souls and grow in strength without being limited by karma so they had great benefits.
‘Creating a test subject like this…’
The Fire Demon Clan whose entire body was burned by the blue flames soon turned to ashes and scattered.
However as can be seen from the current situation the downside of summoning in this way is that since the human body that serves as the medium and the soul of the demon are assimilated if attacked the main body of the demon will also suffer a great blow.
It was clear that the demons who had been struck by Zeke’s blue flames had also suffered a shock that was close to destruction of their souls.
Zeke imagined what would happen if the Nostra Family’s research fell into the hands of Narak.
‘The Abyss guys might be able to summon higher-level demons or higher using this method.’
It was an abyss that had already summoned the highest-level demon named Anastasia.
The method of the Abyss required paying a high price for summoning a strong demon but the method of the Nostra Family was able to greatly reduce the summoning cost compared to the method of the Abyss.
‘If we were to create an army of mid-level demons with full power…’
The Central Continent was certain to collapse without being able to hold out.
Zeke felt a chill down his spine and decided that he had to destroy this lab once and for all.
He approached Yellin who had fallen.
“Are you okay Yellin?”
Yellin felt himself getting smaller as he watched Zeke easily subdue the demon that was emitting powerful flames.
‘To stand next to Sir Zeke… I have to become stronger than I am now.’
Among the warriors of her age in Ishtar there was no one who could stand up to her.
That’s why Yellin didn’t know what his limits were.
But when Yellin came out into the world like this and saw Zeke he realized that he had been arrogant.
‘I will work harder so that I can stand side by side with Sir Zeke next time.’
It was Yellin who burned with the will to become stronger.
He said to Yellin who nodded silently.
“Yelin you go first. I will follow after I completely destroy this place.”
Yellin couldn’t bring herself to say that she would go with them.
Because with my current abilities I was only getting in the way of Zeke’s work.
She nodded helplessly and said.
“…Be careful Sir Zeke.”
Just as Yellin was about to turn around and leave.
Kwakwakwakwa!
The hallway Yellin was passing through completely collapsed leaving something lodged in it.
Zeke was startled when he noticed that the thing he had landed on was a demon in the shape of a giant turtle.
‘Dool?’
Dool one of the evil spirits who was said to be the pinnacle of evil spirits was lying on the ground a corpse.
