A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 594



Episode 594

Meeeeeee!

The children of the satyr race with goat horns and legs wept bitterly.

This was because the village collapsed due to the sudden surge of demons and all the satyr warriors who tried to stop them were annihilated.

In order to save the children the adults hid them between the trees at the back of the village but the cruel beasts that resembled hunting dogs quickly smelled the scent and chased them here.

The children of the Satyr race knew that they had to somehow hold back their tears but as the strong breath of the demons drew near they were so terrified that they cried out without realizing it.

Grrrrr!

The demons heard the children’s cries figured out their location turned their heads and ran quickly toward the tree.

Kwaaaaah!

The demons led their huge bodies and rushed madly towards the tree.

If they collided with one another even the strongest tree would surely be uprooted.

The children hugged each other and cried louder and more sorrowfully.

Meeeeeeeee!

It was the moment when the demons were about to slam their bodies into the tree.

Phage phage phage!

Pure white lightning struck all around.

Krrrrrr!

The demons who were struck by the lightning fell to the ground with sticky fluid flowing from their mouths.

The crying children raised their heads in surprise at what had suddenly happened.

Just then someone approached the tree.

“The kids are here.”

Zeke discovered the children of the Sapiros tribe who had been hiding and reached out to them.

Hwaaaa …

The warm golden light flowing from Zeke’s hands healed all of the children’s wounds.

The children of Sapiros instinctively felt that Zeke had come to save them and shed tears of relief.

After saving all the children who were hiding under the tree Zeke loaded them onto the waiting carriage.

The demons that had attacked the village all fell blackened and charred and Tantra’s soldiers searched for the surviving demons and finished them off.

After clearing out the village that had been attacked by the demons Zeke went up to the back of the village with Ascalon.

There was an abandoned abyss altar and a neglected gate there.

Narak installed gates throughout the Mannyeonsan Mountains and airlifted demons and monsters from there to the Central Continent.

Then after the abyss collapsed and the gate that had been installed here was abandoned the demons controlled by the black magicians went berserk and indiscriminately attacked the farms and villages in the vicinity.

Zeke decided to destroy all the gates left here to prevent the remnants of the Abyss from sending any more demons to the Central Continent.

He immediately fired a bolt of light towards the gate and altar he saw before his eyes.

Kwakwakwakwakwang!

With a loud noise the gate and the altar were completely destroyed and scattered.

‘At this point it’s almost under control.’

The urgent matters that were visible had been dealt with first so even if the warlocks were hiding here it wouldn’t be easy to open the gate again.

The rest were planning to send Titus and Yulina to take control of the Tantra Kingdom and then come up with a proper plan.

Although it was not intentional since he had come here and subdued the Tantra Kingdom Zig thought that he should establish a branch of the Association in the Mannyeonsan Mountains centered around the Tantra Kingdom just like the southern islands and the Nagas’ cities.

Because the Tantric kingdom was rich in natural resources it had ample potential for development.

The idea was to open up this place which had been isolated for a long time due to the bloodline system and make it a hub connecting the Central Continent and the Murk Empire.

‘Of course it will take quite some time for that to happen.’

Zig thought he had sorted things out to some extent and decided to go over the Mannyeonsan Mountain Range to the Murk Empire to contact his comrades first.

But then Tosabid came running towards Zig.

“Your Majesty!”

He stood in front of Zeke and continued speaking urgently.

“Come this way. I think I have found what Your Majesty was looking for!”

Zik followed Tosabid down.

There surprisingly the black magicians captured by Tantra’s soldiers were tied up in front of the underground base where they were staying.

Once inside the base Zeke found something familiar in the underground base.

“Hoo.”

There was communication equipment inside the underground base leading to the outside.

Zeke saw this and smiled with satisfaction.

‘I guess I can use this to fix the system’s unstable communication network.’

Zig went straight to the system and connected to the communications equipment.

[External communication network secured.]

As communications that had been blocked due to the energy of the Mannyeonsan Mountain Range stabilized again a list of systems emerged.

Among them Zig activated the system sharing function that had been blocked for a long time.

There was only one person who shared the system with him.

‘Sultan of the Murq Empire. Scheherazade the Great.’

Zeke sent a message to Scheherazade through the system.

[Your Majesty can you hear my voice?]

After sending the message through the shared system Zig waited for a moment.

Join our discord and ping me to update more chapters. Discord: https://discord.gg/93rmBjgP6B

And soon a message appeared before his eyes.

[…Hmm now I can hear hallucinations. That’s a problem.]

Zig sent another message confirming that the sharing function with Scheherazade was activated.

[Your Majesty I am Zeke Draker.]

Then surprisingly messages came flying in one after another.

[her?]

[Is that really you Zig?]

[Not an auditory hallucination?]

[Can you hear me?]

As Zeke watched the flood of messages from Scheherazade he suddenly remembered why he had disabled this function.

[Your Majesty I will explain later.]

He sent a message to Scheherazade with great earnestness.

[I need coordinates to the palace. Now.]

* * *

Scheherazade Sultan of the Murk Empire watched as the palace magicians adjusted the settings of the portal device.

Unlike usual Scheherazade looked quite expectant at the moment.

At that moment the palace magicians sent a signal that the setup was complete.

The eunuch next to her approached Scheherazade.

“Your Majesty the preparations are complete.”

As Scheherazade nodded the wizards activated the portal.

Kookookookook!

A light shimmered in the magic circle and at the same time a portal opened above it.

Tsk tsk tsk tsk―

After a while someone walked out of the portal.

Scheherazade jumped up from her seat.

“Zeke Draker!”

Scheherazade greeted Zeke as he emerged from the portal beaming with delight.

Zeke bowed his head respectfully as he looked at Scheherazade.

“Your Majesty how are you?”

Scheherazade waved her hand as she watched Zeke who was the first to offer his respect as soon as they met.

“That’s fine. There’s no need for such formalities between you and me.”

At that moment Raven appeared on Zeke’s shoulder.

Woof woof!

Raven recognized Scheherazade and flew towards her.

Scheherazade who saw the phoenix which was more precious than any other being in the Murk Empire greeted Raven with a broad smile.

“Raven! It’s been a while you too. I missed you.”

Raven sat on Scheherazade’s arm spread her wings and shouted the phoenix star.

Zeke shook his head as he looked at Raven like that.

‘That weakling. He knows who the powerful are like a ghost and sticks right next to them.’

Scheherazade asked Zeke while feeding Raven the finest jerky she had prepared.

“Zeke I suddenly heard your voice in my head and I panicked. What happened?”

Since he couldn’t say that he had blocked the sharing system on purpose Zig made up a story.

“I don’t know why but… I called Your Majesty with such earnest desire that I think our hearts connected.”

Scheherazade looked slightly moved by Zeke’s words.

“You said you wanted me so badly.”

She was the Sultan who had long held the throne at the top of the empire alone.

As the Sultan of the Empire he had many lovers but he never had a true lover.

Scheherazade felt her heart flutter at Zeke’s words.

Zeke felt as if Scheherazade’s gaze was looking at him like that of a beast hunting for prey.

He quickly changed the subject thinking that she might be persistently persuaded by mentioning the Sultan’s letter again.

“Your Majesty there is a reason why I came here in such a hurry.”

Scheherazade shook her head at Zeke’s words.

“You still have a short temper. First to celebrate your return to the palace with Raven we will hold a seven-day and night banquet. We have prepared new delicacies and delightful performances so as a guest you have a duty to enjoy them.”

Sultan Scheherazade’s way of thinking was different from that of ordinary people.

Zeke sighed inwardly and sent a message to Scheherazade through the shared system.

[Your Majesty Arthur Draker lives.]

Scheherazade who was about to guide Zeke to the prepared banquet hall furrowed her brows upon hearing Zeke’s message.

She also sent a message to Zeke.

[Arthur Draker is alive. What does that mean?]

[That’s literally it. Arthur Draker faked his own death. And now he’s hiding in the shadows working to resurrect the Dark Lord.]

Scheherazade’s expression darkened after hearing Zeke’s words.

“As you said this is not the time to be having a banquet.”

She told the eunuch to cancel the banquet and took Zeke to her room.

When I went to Scheherazade’s room the gods I had seen before were startled when they saw Zeke and Raven.

The guys took a step back hesitantly as they saw the grown Raven.

Raven excitedly shouted the Phoenix Star ignoring the other gods’ wary attitudes.

Scheherazade looked at Raven as if she found her cute then laid down on a soft cushion on the floor and offered a seat to Zeke.

“What you say here will never be revealed so speak with confidence. Why did Arthur Draker fake his death?”

Zeke nodded to Scheherazade’s words and opened his mouth.

“Arthur Draker is trying to resurrect the Demon King but I don’t think that’s his only goal.”

“Heh isn’t the purpose to resurrect the Demon King itself but to achieve something else through it?”

“Yes. Arthur Draker is not the type of person who would aim to resurrect the Demon King and lead the continent to destruction. It is clear that he is hiding a more sinister purpose.”

“Hmm… Arthur Draker. I haven’t seen him in person but I’ve heard rumors about the Overlord. Those who returned from the Holy War called him a demon.”

Zeke nodded to Scheherazade’s words.

“From the perspective of someone who has seen the devil himself Arthur Draker is more difficult to deal with.”

Scheherazade smiled at Zeke’s words.

“Haha! Zeke Draker you’ve got a lot more jokes.”

But Scheherazade soon looked surprised when she saw Zeke’s serious expression on his face at her words.

“Are you kidding?”

“Yes before coming to the Eastern Continent I went to the Demon World. There I discussed this matter with the Demon World’s overlords.”

Scheherazade opened her mouth wide at Zeke’s words.

As the Sultan of the Murk Empire which united the entire Eastern Continent it was quite rare for her to be surprised.

However I couldn’t help but be surprised by Zig’s words that he had personally gone to the Demon World and met with its overlords.

Scheherazade shook her head looking confused.

“The great lords of the demon world. That’s a story that’s hard to imagine.”

“The Demon King and the great overlords of the Demon World are no longer beings of myth or legend. They are real problems that face us now.”

Scheherazade nodded to Zeke’s words and spoke in a serious voice.

“Okay I understand the situation. So what do you want to say to me and the Murk Empire?”

“You must prepare your troops. Arthur Draker is not a man who will be satisfied with the Central Continent.”

“Are you saying that he will invade the Eastern Continent? Hmm.”

Scheherazade looked troubled.

Then Zeke continued speaking.

“I know what you are worried about. You must be worried about what lies beyond the Eternal Mountains.”

Scheherazade nodded at Zeke’s words.

“Yes. One of the greatest reasons for the existence of the Murk Empire is to protect the Eternal Wall and prevent the demons from advancing south. If we have to separate troops to stop Arthur Draker and the Demon King who may come at any time there will be strong opposition.”

“Would you be okay if that problem was solved?”

Zig’s eyes sparkled and he took something out of his bosom.

Scheherazade was startled when she saw what Zeke had taken out.

“that…?”

What Zeke took out was none other than the royal seal of the Tantra Kingdom.
