A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 526



Episode 526

‘The Sixth Demon Lord?’

Zeke couldn’t hide his embarrassment because he never expected Mephistopheles to make such a suggestion.

Looking at him like that Mephistopheles calmly explained.

“I didn’t know you had such divinity as you do now. There is a limit to the information I can obtain from observing the phenomenal world from where I am. In any case since you have already transcended species and begun to possess divinity you are more than qualified to have the name of a constellation.”

Zeke came to his senses at Mephistopheles’ words.

‘He is one of the six lords of the Demon World. Although he is currently incarnated and only a part of his soul has descended he is considered to be in the highest position among all constellations. Do not be deceived by those words.’

He knew firsthand how the constellations had trampled upon the phenomenal world in the past and how many civilizations had been destroyed because of it.

That is why I first thought that it was dangerous to believe everything Mephistopheles said.

Mephistopheles smiled bitterly as he looked at such a Zeke.

“It would be natural for you to be wary of my suggestion. I understand.”

It was Mephistopheles the devil’s device who was very understanding.

As he clapped the screen split into four again showing the four realms of the Demon World.

“There are currently five lords of the Demon Realm: two in the Abyss one in Abaddon one in Gehenna and one in Pandemonium which I rule. That makes five in total. However there are six known rulers of the Demon Realm.”

He looked at Zeke and asked.

“Where do you think the other one is?”

Zeke had also had doubts about this.

There were known to be six great demons the rulers of the Demon World but there were only five monarchs who ruled over the realm.

“A demon lord with no realm of dominion. Does this have anything to do with the offer you made to me?”

Mephistopheles smiled happily.

“It’s good that we can communicate well. Among the Demons there are many simple children so there are many times when I have to show a lot of patience and explain things to them one by one.”

Mephistopheles changed the screen back to Pandemonium.

“In fact the last Demon Lord who is no longer around was the one who ruled Pandemonium with me. Pandemonium was the largest of all the areas of the Demon World so it could easily accommodate two rulers.”

Zeke opened his mouth after hearing Mephistopheles’ words.

“Did a dispute arise in the middle?”

Mephistopheles’ gaze changed slightly.

He nodded with a bitter smile.

“You could say that. The other monarch who ruled Pandemonium with me the Arrogant Savior is currently sealed.”

Zeke repeated the constellation names that Mephistopheles had mentioned.

‘Arrogant savior.’

Mephistopheles spoke with a hazy expression as if recalling the past.

“In fact it was not I who first designed the current form of Pandemonium but the arrogant savior.”

“The arrogant savior wanted to create a new civilization in the Demon World.”

“As the constellation says he wanted to save us and our followers who had fallen into the demon world.”

Mephistopheles shook his head and continued.

“But he was as arrogant as he was eager for salvation. He was so driven by his ambition and confidence in himself that he pushed ahead with his plan without caring about the situation of the constellations or the demons.”

Zeke could easily guess what was going to happen after hearing Mephistopheles’ words.

“The other constellations have joined in attacking the arrogant savior.”

At those words Mephistopheles shook his head.

“Rather than the other constellations it was ‘I’ who sealed him.”

Mephistopheles who said those words had an expression of regret that was unusual for a great devil.

“If he continued to enforce his will not only Pandemonium but the entire Demon World could collapse. That’s why I had to make a decision.”

Zeke interpreted Mephistopheles’ words in a different way.

It could not be ruled out that a fierce power struggle had broken out between him and the arrogant savior over the demon realm known as Pandemonium.

‘It’s the words of a great demon so I can’t believe everything but it seems certain that one of the six great demons is sealed.’

Zeke wondered how he could use this newfound knowledge.

Then Mephistopheles said to Zeke.

“The arrogant savior has been sealed but the monarch’s seat still remains. His subordinates are scattered to different factions with their powers sealed. The Arataso you have with you is one of those cases.”

Zeke was startled when he heard Aratasso’s name come out of Mephistopheles’ mouth.

‘Was Arataso originally in the camp of the arrogant savior?’

Phage support support –

But then suddenly sparks began to fly out of Anastasia’s body as Mephistopheles descended.

It seemed that the sanctions of karma had penetrated even into Mephistopheles’ own domain.

Mephistopheles continued frowning.

“…There isn’t as much time left as I thought Zeke Draker. To get to the point I propose that you absorb the soul of the sealed arrogant savior and assume the rank of a constellation becoming the sixth monarch of the demon realm.”

The sixth monarch of the Demon World.

It was an opportunity to become a constellation that reigned over constellations other than the ordinary constellations.

Phage phage phage!

Anastasia’s entire body was engulfed in sparks due to the aftermath of causality.

Zeke said looking at such a Mephistopheles.

“Why do you want me to become the sixth monarch of the Demon World?”

“It’s to protect the Pandemonium that has been created for a long time. The other monarchs except for me have a plan to revive the Demon King destroy the phenomenal world and summon the Demon World on the surface.”

Zeke broke out in a cold sweat without realizing it at Mephistopheles’ words.

‘Summoning the demon world itself into the phenomenal world?’

Anastasia’s Invasion Fortress was summoned on top of an old castle reducing the Karma sanctions.

If the range was expanded in this way it would not be impossible to summon the realm of the demon world on Earth.

Pandemonium the city of the Abyss Demons where the struggle for Abaddon never ceases made up of the burning land of Gehenna and the darkness of the Abyss.

The earth literally had to become a world for demons.

Zeke furrowed his brows as he never thought that the ultimate goal of the great demons would be to summon the entire demon world to the surface.

‘Those damn devil bastards…’

If the Demon King’s descent was not prevented the world would become a living hell.

Zeke who was quickly sorting out the situation looked at Mephistopheles and said as a question suddenly occurred to him.

“Unlike other great demons I don’t quite understand why you the Demon Master refuse to allow the demon world to be summoned to the mortal world. Wouldn’t it be better to bring Pandemonium to the surface for the sake of your followers?”

In response to Zeke’s words Mephistopheles continued to speak calmly even in the midst of the aftermath of causality.

“Tsk it would be nice if things were that easy. But the problem is that things aren’t always so good when we go up to the surface.”

He pointed to the sky with his finger.

“If we erode the phenomenal world those up there will be able to intervene.”

Zeke was surprised by Mephistopheles’ words and asked back.

“Those guys up there… Are you talking about the constellations of the heavens?”

Jiji …

As soon as the word celestial constellations came out the aftershock of causality spread beyond Mephistopheles and affected Zeke.

The sanctions of karma did not allow any mention of this.

Mephistopheles said as he watched Zeke flinch at the sudden surge of electricity.

“If those damned bastards come down the phenomenal world might finally disappear this time. If that happens there won’t be any winners or losers left. Other bastards may be greedy for the phenomenal world right now but I don’t want that.”

He stretched out both hands and created something enduring the aftershock of causality.

Woohoo!

The brilliant light gathered into a sphere.

“It would be difficult to decide everything in the current situation. Since we don’t have time please take this first.”

A ball of light created by Mephistopheles flew towards Zeke.

Zeke who was watching the thing flying towards him realized what the sphere of light created by Mephistopheles was.

‘Karma data?’

I could feel the karma data compressed within the sphere of light.

Phage support support –

Mephistopheles said to Zeke.

“You know what it is. It contains everything I want to say. See for yourself and judge for yourself.”

As soon as she finished speaking light emitted from Anastasia’s body.

Kugugugugugu―

The divine realm gradually disappeared along with the great light.

Zeke who was within that area felt time which had stopped flowing again.

If we left it like this Mephistopheles’ domain would disappear completely and this karma data would also be erased in the aftermath of causality.

‘shit….’

It was difficult to trust the words of the Great Devil but it was also not something that could be completely ignored.

Zeke clenched his teeth and held the orb of light that Mephistopheles had handed him.

Tsk tsk tsk―

Karma data flowed into his body.

And then a moment later a surprising message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[You have received the ‘Fragment of Forgotten Time’ from the fallen constellation the owner of the unbreakable contract.]

[Fragments of forgotten time connect to the Akashic Code.]

[A large amount of karma data is updated.]

[Information about the ‘Fallen Constellation’ was obtained through this data.]

[The system restriction code associated with that information will be released.]

[Unlocks final scenario mode by meeting conditions.]

[The final scenario – The Fallen Constellation Chapter – opens.]

―Final Scenario (The Fallen Constellation Chapter)―

[Find and absorb the Seal of the Arrogant Savior hidden in the phenomenal world then obtain complete divinity.]

[Final Scenario Reward: Granting Constellation Name]

Zeke was surprised to see that something called a final scenario not a main quest had appeared.

‘It’s the final scenario. Does that mean the Demon King’s descent is almost here?’

Zeke looked into the part of the scenario where the seal of the arrogant savior was hidden in the phenomenal world.

It seemed he knew why Mephistopheles had proposed this deal to him and not to anyone else.

‘Even if the fallen constellations of the Demon World descend through incarnation they cannot stay in the mortal world for long. Even if they had other subordinates do it they would be caught right away. There is also the problem of whether they can withstand the power of the seal.’

On the other hand since he was human he had no restrictions on moving in the phenomenal world.

Moreover he was a transcendent being possessed of divinity and was a being that could absorb and handle the soul of a sealed great demon.

It was clear that Mephistopheles had taken all this into account and offered Zeke a deal in return handing over a portion of time forgotten in the phenomenal world.

‘If we look at the final scenario it seems like he didn’t lie….’

If what Mephistopheles said was true then there was nothing wrong with Zeke.

If he could absorb the soul of the Great Demon and raise his own rank and prevent the other lords of the Demon World from descending as Mephistopheles intended it would be in line with what he wanted.

As Zeke was reviewing the contents of the final scenario the unique area that had been spread out in the hall completely disappeared.

Woohoo!

At the same time all the demons who had been briefly affected by the divine realm that Mephistopheles had spread out collapsed from exhaustion.

Anastasia who had to endure the descent with her whole body as an incarnation in particular was completely stretched out on the floor.

Among them the one who came to his senses the fastest was none other than Ekaterina.

“Eww!”

He was from the Tuma tribe and was born with a very special body so he was able to recover the fastest.

She sat up and reached out to summon her weapon.

Quadddddd—

Yekaterina holding a huge bizarrely shaped sword made of bone in both hands rushed towards Zeke in a fit of anger.

“You human bastard! How dare you deceive us!”

Catherine who had not heard the conversation between Zeke and Mephistopheles swung her sword in strong anger.

Hooooooooooooo―

A bone sword filled with speculation flew towards Zig.
