A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 584
by Hectopascal(헥토파스칼 )
Episode 584
Agares looked down at Zeke from the air and raised his hand.
Then the entire arena was engulfed in blue flames.
Whoosh whoosh whoosh!
A blue flame hotter than the flames of hell swept through not only Zigg but also the space he was in.
Kwakwakwakwa!
The entire arena was engulfed in flames that seemed capable of burning down thousands of troops in an instant.
In the midst of the whirlpool of blue flames Zig’s figure was completely swallowed up and could not be seen at all.
Agares smiled with satisfaction as he watched the blue flames burning fiercely in the air.
But then it happened.
Shaeeeeeeeek―
A sharp sword strike flew towards Agares through the blue flames.
Choaaa …
The half-moon’s sword slash cut off one of Agares’ wings.
At the same time a space in the air began to shake and Zigg appeared.
Tsk tsk tsk―
Zigg whose entire body was wrapped in shadow was holding a Caladbolg imbued with black energy.
Kookookookookook!
In that state Zig took the form of the Dragon’s Slaughter method and raised his energy.
Dragon’s Slaughter Method Infinite Sword Form
Chapter 6 Section 1
Dragon Heart Stab
The swordsmanship of the Draker family the dragon slayers unfolded.
Kwakwakwakwa!
The shadow surrounding Caladbolg swirled and flew towards Agares who was in the form of a dragon piercing his heart.
Agares seeing this snickered as if it was funny and stretched out his hand to create a spear made of blue flame.

Kwakwakwakwa!
Agares unhesitatingly swung his spear of blue flame at the black swords flying towards him.
Kugugugugugu!
Zeke’s black sword strike and Agares’ blue flames collided sending waves that spread in all directions.
Pah pah pah pah!
A powerful clash of forces began to cause cracks in the dimensions just like Baal.
Beyond the plasma that was generated from the crack there was also a causal aftershock.
Pfft pfft pfft!
As the clash of forces continued the dimensional rift grew more and more severe and the aftershocks of causality began to engulf the entire arena.
Baal who had been watching this from the stands suddenly stood up from his seat.
Then he looked at Mephistopheles and said:
“Are we just going to leave the Devil’s Field alone? If we’re not careful this place could be torn apart!”
Creating a conference hall where the great monarchs could gather at once was by no means an easy task.
Mephistopheles who had been watching the match with interest pouted at Baal’s words and then stood up as if he understood.
Then he snapped his fingers towards where Zeke and Agares were clashing.
Tsk tsk tsk tsk―
Surprisingly the plasma was sucked back into the dimensional hole where the crack had formed as if time had turned back.
As the plasmas disappeared the dimensional cracks that had formed all around began to stick together and regain their original stable form.
At the same time the aftershock of causality that had swept through the entire stadium also disappeared again.
As the dimension stabilized as before Zeke and Agares stepped back in the air and glared at each other.
Agares opened his mouth to speak to Zeke.
“You insolent human. If you had stepped into my territory and come face to face with my true self your soul would have evaporated in an instant.”
At Agares’ words Zeke laughed and said.
“Just neutralize the power of a lowly demon and that’s it. You’ll just have to pray that I don’t go into your realm Agares.”
Agares became enraged at Zeke’s words and tried to summon the Blue Flame again.
However Agares’ blue flame disappeared in an instant after it arose.
He turned his head toward the stands knowing that it was Mephistopheles the demon lord and creator of this arena who had a hand in it.
“What are you doing now! Lift the sanctions immediately! I’ll eat that bastard alive!”
Mephistopheles shook his head at Agares’ words.
“I’m sorry but we can’t do this anymore. If we do this any longer this place itself will collapse.”
Agares ground his teeth at Mephistopheles’ words.
Knowing that this place itself was an unstable dimension he tried to burn Zeke in one go with his power. However Zeke not only bravely withstood his blue flames but also fought back.
Agares had no choice but to gather his strength.
Tsk tsk tsk―
He looked at Zig and said having returned to his original form as a member of the Touma tribe from the form of a dragon.
“Human I cannot acknowledge you. It is impossible for a lowly being like you to be a great monarch.”
At those words Zeke laughed and looked at Agares.

“That’s good. I didn’t want to acknowledge you either. How about taking this opportunity to step down as the Overlord and quietly disappear? I think that would be better for the Demon World.”
Agares lost his senses again at Zeke’s provocation and tried to breathe fire.
Then Mephistopheles snapped his fingers again.
Kookookookookook!
In an instant the scene of the arena disappeared and we returned to the original conference room.
Mephistopheles sitting at the head of the conference room said with a smile.
“I think this shows enough that Zeke Draker is qualified.”
Baal nodded as if he agreed with Mephistopheles’ words but Agares bared his teeth and growled as if he did not want to agree.
Then Asmodeus stood up and said.
“Devil Jang I have a suggestion.”
Mephistopheles frowned at Asmodeus’ words.
“Hmm what kind of suggestion are you talking about?”
Asmodeus the lord of Gehenna was a great monarch with power as strong as Mephistopheles.
He was also quite a tricky person especially in that he was always wary of Mephistopheles’ schemes and had the ability to see through them.
If the demons under Asmodeus had been able to understand and follow their master’s intentions even a little the Demon Leader might have changed.
Asmodeus turned his head and looked at Zeke.
“I want to confirm whether he is worthy of being the Great Monarch as the successor to the arrogant Savior.”
“Hmm? You want to test your qualifications as a monarch? Wasn’t the battle just now sufficient?”
“If just being good at fighting and taking damage could qualify you as a great monarch then <The Judge of the Ceaseless Struggle> and <The Rider of Blood and Madness> could also become great monarchs.”
If we look at the power and strength that Gusion and Wirinom possessed they were not inferior to the great monarchs.
But even so there was a reason why they could not become great monarchs.
Asmodeus said with shining eyes.
“I want to see Zeke Draker fully inherit the power of the arrogant savior.”
A unique power that demonstrates one’s status as a great monarch.
Without this no matter how strong one’s power was one could not be recognized as the ruler of the demon world.
Mephistopheles made a strange expression when he heard Asmodeus’ words.
Then he turned his head towards Zeke.
“That’s what Zeke Draker says. How can you prove it?”
After hearing Mephistopheles’ words Zeke looked towards Asmodeus and then took out a sword from his inventory.
He breathed the aura of an arrogant savior into his sword which resembled the color of dawn.
Tsk tsk tsk tsk―
In an instant Arataso who had been sealed inside the sword appeared.
thud!
Arataso bowed his head silently and took a prostration position before Zeke.
Asmodeus’ expression changed when Arataso who appeared in his prime as the leader of the Morning Star’s 1st Battalion in the past showed loyalty to Zeke.
“…Captain of the Dawn.”
Arataso was stripped of his original powers and even lost his position as the Commander of the Dawn following a decision made at the Great Monarch’s Council.
Such Aratasso was once again receiving the power of the arrogant savior and confidently displaying the power of his prime.
But that wasn’t the end.
Zeke took something out of his inventory again.
An old bone helmet with cracks here and there.
He infused the bone helmet with the unique power of the proud savior the power of re-creation and the unique realm of purgatory.
Tsk tsk tsk tsk―
As Zeke poured his power into it the bone helmet began to change.
Kookookookookook!
A demon with ruby eyes and wearing a bone helmet and armor that glows blue.
Asmodee the captain of the White Bone Squadron the 2nd battalion of the Morning Star was resurrected by his power.
Asmodeus summoned again from Purgatory a fragment of forgotten time knelt before Zeke.
“I have come here at the command of my master.”
Asmodeus who had not remembered being destroyed by Zeke before took on a loyal attitude towards Zeke who had inherited the soul of the arrogant savior.
Asmodeus shrugged his shoulders as if he had nothing more to say as the two captains of the Morning Star who symbolized the arrogant saviors acknowledged Zeke as their master.
Zeke said as he looked at the arch-demons sitting in the conference room.
“I think this proves it.”
Agares who had been wearing a discontented expression also remained silent after seeing Aratasso and Asmodeus perhaps unable to find any more grounds for opposition.
But then the <Master of the Abyss> who had been silent all along turned his head towards Zeke.
[Zeke Draker.]
Zeke looked at the abyss master who had called him and remembered his true name.
‘Beelzebub the lord of Abaddon.’
Beelzebub the lord of undead spirits and incorporeal beings was one of the constellations that loved the beings of the phenomenal world as much as the arrogant saviors before falling to the underworld.
The arrogant savior speculated that such love of Beelzebub was what created the immortal legions by reviving the souls and bodies of the dead.
Most of the demons were inhabitants of a civilization that had been destroyed as the arrogant savior had gathered fragments of forgotten time to create the Demon Realm.
But Beelzebub’s followers were those whom he had personally called up from the abyss.
Abaddon was unlike any other region in the Demon Realm as the beings gathered by Beelzebub were comprised entirely of undead and spirits who had transcended death.
Zeke looked at the flaming skeleton knight possessed by Beelzebub.
Beelzebub’s voice echoed in my head again.
[You are the being that most resembles Abaddon.]
Zeke the immortal being.
As Beelzebub said the immortal being who rose from the dead resembled Zeke in that he did not die.
Before Zeke could say anything Beelzebub continued.
[Abaddon will acknowledge the immortal Zeke Draker as his overlord. He also has one proposition to make.]
Mephistopheles who was listening to Beelzebub’s words from the side flashed a wary look in his eyes.
Beelzebub’s voice rang in my head again.
[To you the immortal Abaddon would like to request an alliance.]
All the great monarchs in the council hall were startled by Beelzebub’s sudden words.
Agares who especially did not want to acknowledge Zeke jumped up from his seat and shouted at Beelzebub.
“What are you talking about now! Not only do you acknowledge a human as your overlord but you even form an alliance as equals! <Master of the Abyss>! Have you lost your mind!”
Although his voice was filled with anger Beelzebub paid no attention to Agares’ words and said what he wanted to say.
[How about it Immortal? If you accept my offer I will send Nevilleros the Inspector of Abaddon who you have with you as an envoy to formally make a request.]
Beelzebub who was thought to be the most difficult to approach was surprisingly the first to request an alliance.
Zeke wondered why Beelzebub had proposed an alliance to him first.
Then looking at Mephistopheles whose expression had darkened unlike before I was convinced.
‘It seems that he hit the player to check the devil’s field.’
The Demon King created this position on the condition of exclusive communication with the phenomenal world which can be called Zeke’s domain.
He had thought that he could elevate Zeke to the position of overlord but he probably didn’t think that any of the other overlords would openly propose an alliance.
Zeke sorted out the situation in his head and looked at Beelzebub.
“What are the terms of the alliance?”
Beelzebub answered his words.
[I want to expand the rights of necromancers in the phenomenal world.]
Zeke asked surprised by Beelzebub’s unexpected condition.
“Are you asking me to protect the necromancers?”
[Yes. The necromancers and undead of the current world are suffering from unjust persecution.]
Beelzebub spoke in a serious voice.
[I believe that you the immortal can protect them.]
