A Dragonslayer’s Peerless Regression – 616



Episode 616

Kwakwakwakwa!

With a huge impact the carpet broke through the shield and entered the central city of Atlantis.

“Eww!”

Nabu sat up hitting his waist as if he had been hit all over his body.

“Oh my it’s a shame. What the hell is this? What kind of wealth and honor am I supposed to enjoy?”

Zeke leaving Nabu’s grumbling behind approached Nigel.

“Are you okay Master?”

Even though he was able to fully recover his body even with Zeke’s power he was unable to do anything about the damage to his soul.

Since Nigel had taken the risk of breaking the seal and going too far Zeke couldn’t help but be worried.

Nigel’s face turned slightly pale but he soon nodded as if it was okay.

“I’m fine. But here…..”

The central city of Atlantis which had broken through the barrier felt very different from the outside.

The sky was completely overcast and dark as if covered with dark clouds and no light was shining down at all.

The surrounding buildings were all collapsed or covered in black mold and strange moss and vines were growing everywhere covering the walls.

Naboo also opened his mouth wide at the sight.

“Wow what is this? It’s completely different from outside.”

Zig bent down and felt the ground and the growing grass then nodded.

“I’ve seen a place similar to this one.”

Nabu asked with a surprised expression on his face at Zeke’s words.

“Somewhere similar to here? Where?”

“It was a glimpse into past memories… but the continent beyond the Dark Sea where another Book of the Lion was hidden. It looked like this there too.”

Nigel frowned at Zeke’s words and opened his mouth.

“So it’s said that the power flowing from the Book of the Lion affected the surrounding environment.”

At those words Nabu opened his mouth wide.

“A sealed book torn in half and yet this much power leaking out?”

Zeke said as he looked at Nabu.

“The continent beyond the Dark Sea was in a worse state than this place. Not only was the appearance bizarre but everywhere….”

Kaaaah!

Before Zeke could finish speaking a scream echoed from far away.

He continued looking at the place where the scream had come from.

“There were demons influenced by magic scattered all over the place.”

Zig rose from his seat raised his sword and spoke.

“We must be on high alert and head to the center where the Book of the Dead is sealed as soon as possible. There is no way to know how far Baron has approached.”

At Zeke’s words Nigel also drew his sword and nodded.

The three men stood guard and immediately headed toward the center of the city.

Zeke stood in the front Nabu in the middle and Nigel at the back.

It was while I was walking between those half-collapsed buildings.

I felt something approaching from the other side.

Krrrrrrrr―

A demon that looked like a wild dog approached Zeke and his group baring its teeth.

The demon glared at them as it opened its mouth tearing in four directions instead of up and down which looked quite threatening.

But not one or two but dozens of such demons appeared.

Zeke said pointing his sword at the demons.

“You two please provide cover from behind while I deal with those guys.”

At the same time Zig leapt forward and slashed with his sword at the demon in front.

Kwakwakwakwa!

A sword strike imbued with the power of brilliant light struck the demon’s torso.

Kaaaak!

The demon engulfed in the power of light fell to the ground oozing disgusting fluid and Zig stretched his shadow and wrapped the fallen demon in one breath.

Ss …

Zig who had absorbed the fallen demon smiled as he watched his karma points rise.

“Okay I needed some points anyway. That’s good. Come and see.”

Krrrrrrrr―

The demons opened their mouths wide at Zeke baring their sharp teeth and flicking their poisonous tongues.

When Nabu saw this he trembled and shouted.

“Eww I’ve only seen it once or twice and this guy is so hideous!”

He spoke angrily and summoned an arrow of light with his voice floating it into the air.

Behind him Nigel took out the pieces of orichalcum he had collected and infused them with the power of his spirit.

The demons glared at them and then rushed at them from all sides.

Kaaaak!

First Nabu fired an arrow of light at them.

Pavababababak!

Dozens of arrows struck the demons’ bodies with precision.

Keeeeek!

The demons struck by the arrows of light were pushed back.

Then from behind Nigel quickly threw a piece of orichalcum containing his full spirit.

Kwakwakwakwa!

Shards of orichalcum shot out in all directions piercing through the bodies of the retreating demons.

Kkwaddudduk!

The limbs of the demons impaled on the orichalcum pieces were torn to pieces and scattered in all directions.

At that moment Zeke’s shadow approached and absorbed the bodies of all the dead demons.

The amount of karma points obtained from absorbing demons was considerable.

‘Is it because they received the power of the Demon King directly from the Book of the Dead? Their karma points are quite high.’

It was a good thing for Zeke since he knew that Arthur Draker’s men including Baron were using twisted causality so the more Karma Points he had the more smoothly he could deal with them.

‘Sweep it away in one breath.’

Zeke looked at the approaching demons once again and reached out to the orichalcum pieces that Nigel had scattered.

Woohoo!

The orichalcum pieces rose into the air in response to Zig’s aura and soon began to spin violently.

Zeke clenched his fists toward the pieces.

Then the rotating pieces flew roughly through the air piercing the demons’ bodies and turning them into pieces of flesh.

Keeeeeeek!

The body of the demon was hard yet slippery with bodily fluids making it difficult to even scratch it with normal attacks.

However the Orichalcum fragments imbued with Zeke’s power easily tore the demons’ bodies apart like minced meat.

Tsk tsk tsk―

In an instant the scorched earth demons seeped into Zig’s shadow.

Zeke smiled with satisfaction after gaining a large amount of karma points.

He gestured towards Naboo and Nigel.

“The closer you get to the center the more powerful the demons will appear. Be careful.”

Naboo and Nigel nodded nervously and followed Zeke.

As Zeke had expected the closer you got to the center the more hideous and powerful the demons appeared.

Even breathing was uncomfortable due to the condensed magic they were spewing out.

But even those demons with such powerful magic were just good point providers in front of Zeke.

thud!

The demon that resembled the cause was hit by Zig’s sword and fell to the ground.

As expected Zeke’s shadow greedily devoured the demon’s body.

As it is a demon that holds a lot of condensed magic energy it was possible to obtain a large amount of karma points.

As I continued forward defeating the attacking demons I soon reached the center of Atlantis.

Nabu pointed with his finger to the building standing in the center.

“Is the Lion’s Book over there?”

To his surprise there was a temple standing where he pointed.

However unlike typical temples it was a stone building with a pointed spire.

It was a completely different form of temple than any they had ever seen before so it felt unfamiliar and a bit intimidating.

But then it happened.

【Come new king.】

Again the voice they had heard earlier rang in their ears.

Nabu opened his eyes wide when he heard this voice.

“Did you hear that? You guys too. I said something about coming.”

Zeke nodded to Nabu’s words.

“Yes it looks like the Book of the Lion is sealed there.”

He picked up his sword and slowly headed towards the temple.

But the moment he approached the temple.

Phage phage phage!

A bolt of lightning made of magical power shot out in front of Zeke preventing him from approaching.

At the same time a message appeared before Zeke’s eyes.

[Top-tier security systems control the area.]

[Entry will be denied if you do not have the authentication key.]

Zig looked at the message thought for a moment and then spoke to the system.

‘Unlock the security with the control I have over Le Rue.’

Then the system went silent as if trying to follow Zeke’s command and then soon displayed the message again.

[Control of the Abyssal City of L’Rue does not include the access authentication key for the secure area.]

The control authority over Le Rue held by the chieftain and the management system of this security zone seemed to operate separately.

Zig thought for a moment and then spoke to the system again.

‘Check if I can access the security system using the title and powers I have.’

The system fell silent again at Zeke’s command and connected to the security system.

It was a while later.

[Warning. The system has detected an illegal intrusion and has activated a protection program.]

[A guardian is summoned to protect the area.]

Zig was confused when he saw the system’s warning message.

‘How was the system created that it cannot be accessed even through the Kabbalah system?’

As Zeke stepped back in confusion a magic circle was summoned in front of the temple and the Guardian appeared.

Wooooow!

The Guardian appeared emitting a powerful aura.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

The summoned guardian was none other than a giant golem.

He was over five meters tall wearing a helmet shaped like a lion’s head holding a heavy club in one hand and a longbow on his back.

The important thing was that the golem was made of a silver metal that gave off a brilliant light.

Zeke watched the golem for a while and then realized what the metal was.

“Orichalcum Golem?”

The giant golem was made out of Orichalcum.

Zigg’s Orichalcum Hersion was also an unprecedented artifact and it was even unbelievable to see a golem made entirely of Orichalcum.

Zeke couldn’t help but be amazed at the sight of the golem blocking the front of the temple radiating extraordinary majesty.

But then the man behind him let out a shout.

“What the heck? Is that really Hercules?”

Nabu stepped forward in surprise.

Then he shouted excitedly.

“Crazy! The legendary Atlantis was able to be the most powerful civilization at the time thanks to that Orichalcum golem Hercules!”

Nabu let out a gasp as he summoned the book unfolded the imaginary image of Hercules and compared it with the real thing.

“Oh my goodness! This is even more ridiculous than the legend! The books clearly predicted that it would be orichalcum plating or some other metal with a similar pronunciation. No! It was actually made entirely of orichalcum! Wow the Atlanteans are really freaking crazy!”

Nabu was so excited that he jumped up and down for joy at having discovered something new like a wise man.

But then a golem named Hercules started to move.

Kikkigik!

He put down the club he was holding and took out the longbow he had on his back.

Then he pulled the longbow with all his might and began to aim.

Then magical power was concentrated on the empty bow.

Wooooow!

In an instant magical power condensed and an arrow appeared.

Early on Nabu got excited again.

“The arrows of Hercules! With those he defeated all the invaders who invaded the city…!”

For a moment a flash of light appeared from Hercules’ bow.

Kwakwakwakwa!

An arrow of light rose high into the air then quickly turned around and fell towards where Zeke and his group were.

Only then did Nabu come to his senses and scream.

“Kwaaak! But that doesn’t mean I wanted to take it personally!”

Before the scream could end an arrow of light struck and an explosion occurred.

Kwakwakwakwang!

The surrounding area was completely devastated by a huge explosion.

As the thick cloud of dust settled a spherical protective shield made of black shadows appeared between them.

Zeke deployed his Shadow Armor and blocked Hercules’ arrow.

When Hercules saw this he tried to pull the bowstring again.

Then Zeke shook his head and transformed the Levatein he was holding into the shape of a spear.

“You’re not so kind as to be hit twice!”

At the same time he hurled Levatein who had been transformed into a spear at Heracles.

Kwakwakwakwakwakwa!

With a huge explosion Levatein flew through the air.
