A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 517



Episode 517

[You have acquired imperfect divinity.]

Zeke was startled when he saw the message that appeared.

‘Imperfect divinity? What does that mean?’

I expected that since I absorbed the evil spirit of chaos I would gain powers or skills.

But this time something was different than usual.

Zig quickly checked the entire message window.

[A portion of the evil spirit Chaos’s spirit body has been absorbed.]

[The consumed stamina and mental power mana replenishes.]

[Absorb the spirit of the evil god and gain the power ‘Unique Barrier’.]

[By absorbing the spirit of the constellation the seal on the seal stone is partially released. The current compression seal level is 45%.]

[You will receive 25000 Karma Points as a reward.]

[One special random box will be given as a reward.]

Up to this point it was similar to the general absorption rewards.

The important thing was this:

[The amount of corrupted Holy Blood and Constellation Souls has been absorbed beyond the standard amount.]

[The absorbed Holy Blood and Constellations affect the Immortal’s soul.]

[The rank of the Immortal Soul has grown.]

[The soul of the immortal is formed into the rank of the transcendent.]

[The blessing of the Elder Dragon connected to the Immortal and the protection of the Earth God and the God of the Forest allow the transcendent status engraved in the soul to remain in the body.]

[The soul of the immortal is free from the sanctions of karma.]

[Transcendent’s rank combines with the unique class Immortal.]

[Unique class Immortal transforms into Legendary class Immortal.]

[Passive skill category changes to unique power.]

[The passive skills ‘Healing Factor’ and ‘Infinite Stamina’ combine to transform into the unique ability ‘Full Recovery’.]

[The passive skills ‘Unbreakable Will’ ‘Limit Break’ and ‘Sense of Plunder’ combine to transform into the unique ability ‘Courageous and Unrivaled’.]

[Acquire the unique ability ‘Reign’ as a Legendary Class privilege.]

[Power Dragon Species Domination Charisma Control Shadow King Unique Barrier is absorbed into Unique Power ‘Reign’.]

[The unique power ‘Reign’ changes to ‘Absolute Reign’.]

[One random box outside the rank is given as a Legendary class privilege.]

[Acquire the divine constitution as a legendary class privilege.]

[The heart of the dragon that can withstand the divine power is still sealed.]

[You have acquired imperfect divinity.]

Zig checked all the messages that came to mind and opened his mouth wide.

‘Legendary class immortal?’

As the unique class immortal changed into a legendary class immortal Zeke gained the status of a transcendent being and because of this he gained ‘divine status’ albeit imperfectly.

Emperor Ajita Hakana of the Meat Eaters and the evil spirit Jegang ate high-ranking souls and gained the status of gods of evil and evil spirits.

Zeke also gradually raised the level of his soul by absorbing the fallen constellations of the Four Evils and Nephilim as shadows but it did not reach the realm of the transcendent.

Then this time he absorbed the evil spirit of chaos and his soul level surpassed that of a human.

There even though he had attained the status of a transcendent being thanks to the blessings of the ancient dragon and the protection of the divine dragons he was able to escape the sanctions of karma and remain in the phenomenal world without going on a journey of ascension.

Even Zeke didn’t know that the titles he earned through quests would have such power.

‘A legendary class with divine status and a passive skill that changes into a unique power….’

I really felt what it meant to change classes.

He read the information about the changed unique powers.

―Proprietary Information―

Complete Recovery: Completely recovers from all physical wounds as well as mental damage.

Infinite Breakthrough: You gain a sense of piercing the essence of a perfect spirit and strong fighting spirit and endless possibilities.

Absolute Ruler: As the ruler he can subjugate any being and exercise absolute authority over them.

Zeke looked satisfied after seeing the explanation of the three unique powers.

‘The power of the previous powers has become stronger as they have been combined.’

Zeke tried to move the shadow with absolute dominance to experience the power.

Tsk tsk tsk―

The shadow followed Zeke’s will much more naturally than when he moved as the King of Shadows.

Previously only the area merged with the Shadow Armor could move according to Zeke’s will but now it felt like the entire shadow was connected to him.

‘With full recovery and infinite breakthrough both physical and mental defenses have been perfected. Even if Narak draws the power of another constellation he will be able to deal with it.’

As the soul ascends to the level of a transcendent being the perspective also changes.

Zeke looked at the wall of the waterway where the magic circle had been drawn with a different gaze than before.

The back world had disappeared but I felt that something was hidden inside it.

As he reached out shadows rose and broke the wall.

Kwakwakwakwang!

The wall crumbled away revealing a huge cavity.

Zig entered the cave wrapped in swaying shadows.

Kwakwakwakwakwang!

A huge fireball crashed down on the protective shield surrounding the Mycenaean city walls.

Toodoodoodoo!

Although the shield could not be breached the fragments that were blocked by it fell down the barrier.

Because such a large chunk had collided the broken debris was about the size of a large rock.

Kookookookook!

As debris piled up on the shield small monsters squeezed through the gaps.

Gelgelgelgel!

Kebra one of the frog-like races of the demon world quickly jumped inside.

Kerruruk!

The Kebra race which resembled bipedal frogs appeared gentle on the outside but were actually very cruel and cunning.

He was also adept at using various weapons spitting poison or applying it to his weapons to paralyze his enemies.

As if to demonstrate some level of intelligence the Kebras crawled between the crevices of the rocks and under the protective shield.

The giant shield installed by Hades was intended to block large-scale magic and siege weapons so it was unable to stop the invasion of small infantry.

The Kebras took advantage of that to penetrate the blind spot of the shield.

Kerruk!

Hundreds of Kebras managed to crawl into the giant shield by lowering their posture.

They were a tribe specialized in battle even more than the common Kebras and were one of the vanguard units personally raised by Catherine the second of the princesses of the Demon World.

Among the three princesses of the Demon World Catherine was known to be the most belligerent and had many personal guards and the Kebra unit was always at the forefront of the battle.

Kerruruk!

The Kebras accustomed to combat rushed towards the most vulnerable spot on the Mycenaean outer wall.

Because it was small and moved so stealthily it was difficult to spot.

They planned to enter through the underground passage leading to the castle.

Since they were a species that resembled frogs in the first place passing through the dark and damp waterways was no problem at all.

Soon the Kebras discovered an underground aqueduct leading into the Mycenaean city as planned.

Grrrrr!

The Kebra platoon leader in the lead sent a signal to the other members.

Soon they were trying to enter the waterway in unison.

But then it happened.

Taaaaaang!

With a sharp sound the head of Captain Kebra who was standing in front of the waterway flew off.

thud!

The body of Captain Kebra with one side of his head completely crushed lay sprawled on the floor.

Kerruruk!

For a moment the Kebras were startled and sent out a warning signal.

And then an arrow flew from the retaining walls that had been built discreetly on both sides of the waterway.

Shushu shu shu shuk―

Hundreds of arrows rained down on the Kebras.

Kerruruk!

In an instant a dozen or so Kebras were hit by arrows and fell.

As the confused Kebras tried to escape a unit of archers led by Claire appeared from behind the retaining wall.

They were carrying modern multi-shot crossbows and were aiming at the Kebras.

Claire sent them a signal.

“All hands on deck!”

A rapid stream of small arrows poured from the crossbow towards the fleeing Kebras.

Pubber pubber!

The Kebras who were running away with their backs turned were hit by arrows and had no choice but to fall.

Adnan and Bodmir who were waiting behind the retaining wall asked with surprised faces at the power of the multiple-shot crossbow.

“Was that sniper rifle and that crossbow also made by Sir Zig?”

At those words Claire answered reloading her crossbow and loading it.

“I heard that the idea was given by Sir Zeke and the design and construction were done by Paynen and Gelion.”

Adnan was purely amazed when he heard that.

“It will take some training to get used to it but it will certainly be very effective in combat.”

But then it happened.

As the Kebras retreated another type of monster broke through the barrier and approached the waterway.

But the type of monster that was approaching was unusual.

“Slime?”

Slimes with translucent sticky shapes were approaching looking like golems.

The slime force was sent by Elizabeth the eldest of the three princesses of the demon world.

Elizabeth was known to be the most skilled in magic among the three princesses.

She was a figure with high status within the Demon World having organized all the magic in the Demon World that was spread out in a disorderly manner and established a theoretical basis for it and for this achievement she was the one who received the greatest trust from the Demon Archduke.

Claire raised her crossbow as she watched the slime army closing in.

“All hands on deck!”

Hundreds of arrows rained down on the slimes again.

But the arrows passed right through the slime’s body.

Pubber pubber!

The arrow landed directly on the floor behind it and the slime continued to move as if it had not been hit.

Claire’s expression hardened when she saw this.

“An enemy that is impervious to physical attacks.”

Adnan nodded at those words.

“Yes it does. It seems to be a creature created by magic.”

Adnan who had faced various demons and monsters as a Highlander knew well how to deal with these types of enemies.

He put his finger in his mouth and whistled.

Beep-

As soon as Adnan gave the signal something flashed on the watchtower on the outer wall.

Hooooooooooo!

A giant fireball appeared and fell towards the slimes.

Kwakwakwakwang!

As the fireball collided with the slime army flames engulfed the area.

Adnan Claire and their group who had escaped the flames behind the retaining wall watched the slime’s movements.

Ggg …

As Adnan had expected the slime was engulfed in flames and was unable to move forward stumbling.

Then Adnan whistled in a different way and this time the ground shook.

Ddddddddd—

A huge wall of dirt rose up around the slime engulfed in flames completely covering them.

Kookwakwakwakwa!

When covered with a huge mass of dirt the slime which had already been hit by fire was unable to move any further and was buried in the ground.

Claire sighed in relief when she saw this.

“Whew but the magic worked. That’s a relief.”

Adnan deliberately took charge of the defense of the most vulnerable section of the outer wall the waterway and requested ranged attack units and magic units.

This was because by utilizing these to attack at the right time and place the siege defense power could be sufficiently increased.

But then it happened.

Kwakwakwakwang!

Again a huge ball of fire fell on Hades’ shield.

Adnan who was watching this spoke in a low voice.

“…It seems like the shield is almost at its limit.”

Adnan who had seen the large-scale barrier magic created by the hermit and manna of the story was able to see the state of the protective shield that Hades had deployed.

He told Claire.

“It would be a good idea to slowly advance inside the outer wall and prepare for a siege. If the shield breaks it will be difficult to stop them with just the retaining wall…”

Before Adnan could finish speaking something fell toward the shield again.

Kwarrrrrrung!

A huge glacier appeared above the protective shield and then fell vertically.

Quadddddddd!

As the massive mass of ice crashed down even Hades’ shield could no longer hold out.

Tsk tsk tsk―

The protective barrier began to split like a spider web and then began to break apart.

At the same time the glacier that had collided with the shield also split in all directions and rolled down toward the outer wall.

Kwakwakwakwang!

Splintered ice boulders scattered in all directions.

Kookookookookook!

As the barrier broke ice boulders fell around the retaining wall next to the waterway.

Just then a huge boulder of ice fell toward the retaining wall.

Then Bodmir leaped into the air with his bastard sword in hand.

“Haaaah!”

He swung his bastard sword at the ice rock.

Kwakwakwakwakwang!

The ice boulder shattered with a loud crash shards of ice flying out.

Pavababababak!

Sharp pieces of ice were embedded everywhere.

Bodmir landed shattering the ice rock and catching his breath.

“Hoooo!”

But as he exhaled white vapor came out of Bodmir’s mouth.

Adnan realized that the temperature around him had suddenly dropped.

‘What is this…?’

Adnan and Bodmir who had also been on missions in the North quickly realized that the temperatures were not normal.

Adnan shouted.

“Go back inside the castle immediately!”
