A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 610



Episode 610

Zeke ran forward glaring at Harvey Draker standing at the door.

Wheeeeeek!

Then a black wind blew in front of Harvey Draker.

Hooooooooooooo!

A black wind blocked the path of Zeke and Harvey Draker.

As Zeke swung his sword towards the black wind the figure of Baron holding a dagger suddenly appeared.

Quaching!

Baron swung his dagger and blocked Zeke’s sword strike.

Zeke wasn’t surprised when the dead Baron reappeared his body cut in half by his own sword.

‘Was Harvey Drake stalling for time to open the door while dealing with me?’

While Baron stepped forward and dealt with Zeke Harvey Draker remained hidden and continued to operate the barrier circuit that opened the door.

Harvey Draker who had been behind Baron was seen leisurely entering the door.

Zeke slashed at Harvey Draker with his sword.

“Haaaah!”

A sword strike imbued with the power of the Heart Sword flew towards Harvey Draker.

At that moment Baron who had been scattered by the black fog disappeared for a moment and then reappeared in front of Zeke’s sword strike.

The black auras that emanated from his body blocked and canceled out Zig’s heart sword.

Ss …

Zeke noticed that Baron had once again used twisted causality to erase his sword strike.

‘The twisted causality is a force that reverses reality. It would be impossible to continue to use such a force. Furthermore it was used enough to nullify the power of corruption…’

He raised his sword again and concentrated his mind.

Woohoo!

An astral sword arose from Zeke’s sword expanding his sphere of consciousness.

Even the fogged Baron could not escape Zeke’s conscious realm.

Zeke swung his sword at Baron again.

Wheeeeeek―

The sword that divides the essence of existence as well as space flew towards Baron.

Unlike before Baron was unable to destroy the Heart Sword due to the twisted causality.

Kookookookookook!

Instead the black energy flowing out of Baron tried to block Zeke’s heart sword.

However the sword cut through even that dark energy and flew towards Baron’s true nature.

Chaaaaahh …

But the moment the sword of the mind touched the essence of the Baron that had turned into mist the distorted causality came into play again.

Ss …

The sword that was flying towards Baron disappeared as if it had never existed.

However as Zeke had expected Baron who had been fogged up appeared again and took a deep breath as if it was an ability that could not be easily used because it had reached its limit.

“Whew. Whoosh.”

Seeing Baron sweating profusely Zeke immediately raised his sword and ran forward.

Wheeeeeek!

Zeke’s sword slashed through Baron’s opening.

However Baron who had received power from Arthur and was capable enough to serve as the leader of the Black Stage in the first place did not easily give Zeke an opening.

He swung the dagger he was holding in his hand to block the sword and instead tried to kick his foot high towards Zeke’s head.

Phew!

As Zeke ducked back to avoid the kick Baron immediately stepped back putting some distance between them.

Then he jumped into the air and threw a dagger at Zeke.

Pavabababak!

Zeke tried to block Baron’s sword by using his dragon sword technique.

However the dagger thrown by Baron passed through Zeke’s attack much faster than expected and passed through his arm.

Swish!

Zeke noticed that graze wounds healed more slowly than those caused by normal attacks.

Seeing that his recovery from immortality was delayed even though it was not an attack by the twisted causality Zeke examined the dagger thrown by Baron.

‘What is this?’

The material of the crystallized black dagger was none other than adamantium.

Certainly for a deified Zeke adamantium could be a lethal weapon.

Srrrrrrrrrr—

The adamantium dagger Zeke was holding quickly disappeared into black ash.

Zeke frowned when he saw this.

‘Could it be that the black energy is made of adamantium…?’

As Zeke was speculating about the adamantium the Baron who was floating in the air swung his dagger at Zeke again.

Choaaaah!

Dozens of daggers made of adamantium rained down on Zeke.

Zeke summoned his Shadow Armor to try to block the adamantium dagger.

Doo doo doo doo!

However the Shadow Armor made with Zeke’s power could not stop the Shinsalseok.

A dagger flew through the shadows toward Zeke.

Zigg who figured it out immediately activated Hersion.

Teeeeing!

The goddess Theia’s Hersion made of orichalcum deflected Baron’s adamantium dagger.

Passs …

The daggers that bounced off quickly turned into black ash and scattered.

Seeing this Zeke realized one thing.

‘It’s not perfect adamantium.’

If it had been real adamantium it would not have disappeared like this and would have left a more fatal wound on Zeke.

Baron took a deep breath after seeing Zeke wearing Hersion then turned back into fog and disappeared into the door.

Zeke immediately followed Baron and Harvey Draker through the door.

But the moment Zeke tried to go inside the door began to close quickly.

When Nabu saw this he cried out in despair.

“No way!”

The door closed completely with a bang.

Zeke quickly ran out when he saw the door close but he was a step too late.

Seeing the closed door Nabu shouted at Ivan who was beside him.

“Damn it! Ivan what are you doing! Open the door quickly!”

Then Ivan shook his head with an embarrassed expression.

“Can’t open.”

Nabu shouted at Ivan’s words.

“Hey you punk! Are you saying something like that even in this situation! If those guys inside get the Book of the Dead first…!”

Ivan spoke softly at Nabu’s shouting.

“That’s not it. I don’t know how to open this door either.”

He swallowed dryly and continued speaking looking at the firmly closed door.

“The only authority I was granted by the Chief was to control the security devices here. Even that was broken by the barrier of Manna… but only the Chief can open this door.”

Ivan’s words made Nabu tear out his hair.

“What do you mean only the chief? Can’t you see that those guys opened this place and came in!”

Zeke said to the man who was avoiding the chaos.

“It was probably opened by Harvey Draker’s power.”

The high tables turned to Zig.

Zick continued waving his hand toward the door.

“The leader was a homunculus of the Great Sage who incubated the first Draker to create a new savior Harvey Draker.”

Nabu shouted in confusion at the words Zeke poured out.

“What? The Chief is a homunculus of the Great Sage? The Chief created Harvey Draker?”

Nabu looked at Zeke bewildered by the new information he had suddenly learned.

However Ivan who was next to him did not seem surprised at what Zeke said.

Nabu frowned at the sight of Ivan like that.

“Ivan you knew about this didn’t you?”

Ivan nodded slowly.

“…I thought it was a continuation of a noble will. It was something planned by none other than the great sage. Although I didn’t know that his true identity was a homunculus.”

Nabu sat down on the spot with a look of despair on his face as if his soul had left him.

“My goodness… The one who has been in charge of the sacred task of tuning for hundreds of years was a soulless doll.”

Zeke said looking at the dejected Nabu.

“In any case the leader has the soul of a great sage so it is difficult to see him as a mere puppet. However it is true that he moved in a distorted way as he blindly attempted to carry out his mission.”

He continued speaking.

“Harvey Drake was born here so he would know how the chief moved L’Rue.”

In that moment Zeke’s eyes became sharp.

“What that means is that if we just know how we too can open this door.”

Zeke stepped back from the door and raised his shadow.

“Guardian Innocent come out.”

At his command Innocent appeared from the shadows.

Kookookookookook!

Nabu and Ivan were both surprised by the sight of Innocent wearing a black mask.

Ivan was a wizard who specialized in black magic and summoning magic so he quickly figured out Innocent’s true identity.

“Could this Guardian… be the leader?”

Nabu who had been blankly staring as if his soul had been taken away suddenly came to his senses at Ivan’s words and stared at Innocent then looked back and forth with Zeke and spoke.

“Ji Jik! No matter how angry you are… did you really destroy the chief and turn him into your servant?”

At those words Zeke shook his head.

“It’s complicated to explain but it was something the great sage’s spirit personally requested.”

When the topic of the great sage’s spirit suddenly came up Nabu again grabbed his hair as if he could no longer follow the conversation.

But Ivan nodded as if he understood what Zeke said.

“It seems that the great sage’s spirit was summoned its power was transferred to a homunculus and it was absorbed and turned into a guardian.”

Ivan was an expert who immediately grasped the essence of Innocent.

Then at that moment he seemed to realize something and raised his head.

“If this Guardian is the leader does that mean he can open the door?”

Zeke nodded to Ivan’s words and spoke to Innocent.

“Innocent hand over the control of Le Rue that you have to me.”

Innocent who received the order transferred the control of Le Rue’s system that he had as the leader to Zeke.

A message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[Guardian Innocent transfers authority over the deep-sea city of ‘Rurye’.]

[Gain control of the deep sea city ‘Lurye’.]

After gaining control Zig was able to access Le Rue through the system and open the door.

Just as he was about to open the door a new message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[The constellation ‘Master of Great Dreams’ has left a message for new users.]

[Would you like to check the message?]

‘message?’

Zig couldn’t help but be surprised to suddenly hear that there was a message left by the constellation that was presumed to be Le Rue’s former master.

Zeke decided to check it out right away thinking that this might also be the arrangement of the great sage.

‘Display a system message.’

At Zeke’s decision a screen appeared in front of him and someone’s face appeared.

Zeke was startled when he saw the face.

Because he already knew the person.

‘Cronus.’

A dragon from the clock tower with the power to move time.

It was Kronos the constellation ‘Master of Great Dreams’ who had left the message.

-Zeke.

It was Kronos who had left a message hundreds of years ago who mentioned Zeke’s name.

As Zeke flinched Kronos on the screen continued speaking.

―I no longer have the power to cross the time line. I don’t know if this message will reach you… but there is a one in a billion chance that you will see this so I will believe it and leave this message.

Zeke looked at Kronos on the screen.

Having a constellation name meant that she too had become a dragon and had attained divinity.

Yet it was difficult to find any trace of Cronus as a constellation.

‘I don’t feel any power from the dragon let alone the constellation. He looks like a normal human… What happened?’

She spoke in an urgent voice while Zeke guessed what had happened to Kronos.

―Zeke if you came here and saw my message it must be because of the Book of the Dead. To be exact it is for the soul of the Demon King that exists within it.

It seemed that Cronus knew that the Book of the Dead existed here.

She continued with a dark expression.

-We’ve been wrong all along. About the Demon King’s soul.

Zeke was puzzled by Kronos’ sudden mention of the Demon King’s soul.

‘What did I get wrong?’

Cronus continued speaking urgently with a serious expression on his face.

―I tried to find out where the Demon King’s soul came from. If I could figure that out I could figure out how to destroy it. And I finally figured it out. The Demon King’s soul…

It was when Cronus was about to say something.

Suddenly the screen flickered and Kronos’s words were cut off and the words that followed could not be heard properly.

Zig was confused when the screen and sound suddenly stopped working properly.

‘What’s wrong with the system all of a sudden? Play the message again.’

Then a system message appeared.

[The message left by the constellation ‘Master of Great Dreams’ has been corrupted by unknown interference.]

‘The message is corrupted. Then restore it so that I can check the message again.’

[Restore message.]

As Zeke said the system recovered the message and played it again.

However even in the restored message the content from just before was not played properly.

Chijijijijijik―

Then the screen changed and something other than Kronos appeared.

A being shrouded in black shadow.

The being spoke to Zeke.

【Come. To me.】

An irresistible tempting voice rang in Zeke’s ears.

【New King. Come to me.】
