Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 153

Episode 153

[How on earth… … ?]

Set looked at Lemegeton.

I can’t help but be agitated.

It was fine to say that there were no cases where he could accurately detect himself until now, except for the same apostle.

However, Remegeton called the set correctly as if it was not a big deal.

“The Apostle of the Storm Set.”

[…] … .]

“Even among the apostles, he is quite complex. The information I have is limited, so I can’t be sure, but from what I know… … ”

[Stop.]

Set glared at Lemegeton.

Indescribable emotions rushed across his face.

before something explodes.

“Let’s get to the point.”

I properly arranged the situation.

We don’t know exactly what Set went through or what emotions he’s living through now.

But this is not good.

Should I say intuition?

This is a topic that needs to be overlooked here.

At least for now, information I don’t need to know.

Remegeton asked at my words.

“Aren’t you curious? He is the apostle who is with you. Why do I know these knowledge and what is that knowledge… … Would that be interesting?”

“It’s not interesting.”

How does Remegeton know this knowledge? And if you know, what exactly are they… … .

It’s definitely interesting.

but.

“I don’t think you’ll tell me so nicely.”

Even if this Remegeton is not a complete devil, we must not forget that there is a side of ‘evil’.

Even if you tell me the knowledge, the information that Remegeton voluntarily informs me without any payment should not be taken as it is.

“… … Hmm.”

Remegeton frowned as if he didn’t like it.

“You are quick-witted. Certainly, what I just said was simply a play on words for my own interest.”

“Then don’t tell me. I didn’t come all the way here to fit in with that nonsensical pun.”

“good. Just before that… … ”

Lemegeton looked right at me.

“As Walpurgis, I would like you to answer one of my questions.”

“say it.”

“That apostle set should have disappeared originally. It’s from the distant past, and unlike the other apostles, it’s not protected.”

“It did.”

Originally, the set should have disappeared.

However, I repaired the barrier that was keeping her.

Compared to the other apostles, it’s definitely a different treatment.

“But you repaired it.”

“It did.”

“The magical knowledge required to repair it is difficult even with 8 circles. So I am judging that your insight has transcended even the 8th circle.”

“so?”

I thought I knew what Remegeton was trying to say, but I asked back without knowing.

After a while he asked.

“Can you get me out of here?”

“Hmm.”

It was exactly as expected.

The solitude that Remegeton harbors.

The desire to get out of here and experience the world… … .

In order to read Remegeton’s knowledge, a considerable price is required.

The information and knowledge obtained otherwise have pitfalls or contain poison.

In that respect, it wasn’t bad for me that Lemegeton asked for a ‘price’ first.

Liberation of Remegeton.

If you grant that wish, I will be able to receive a promise of vast knowledge from Remegeton.

but.

“I cannot free you. That doesn’t work either.”

“… … is it.”

Remegeton nodded calmly.

Then, as if my business was completely over, I tried to snap my fingers again.

turning the stopped time.

It also meant that he didn’t want to talk to me anymore.

just before that.

“but.”

At my words, he stopped moving.

“It would be possible to give you limited freedom.”

Remegeton frowned and asked as he stopped.

“What do you mean?”

“It is literally. It means that it can make you stand and go outside in a limited way.”

This was not in my original plan.

It’s an impromptu idea, but it’s not bad.

‘possible.’

If need be, I can completely free Remegeton.

But I don’t think so.

Even if Lemegeton stood and went outside, it had to be in a form that I could thoroughly control.

“If limited… … “

It’s a simple story.”

I looked straight at Remegeton and handed him an offer he couldn’t refuse.

“You’re making a contract with me.”

“… … !”

Remegeton’s eyes widened at my words.

* * *

Loneliness is a very terrible feeling.

okay.

To the point that even the greatest magicians could not stand it.

Remegeton was neglected by the family for a very long time.

I don’t know what he looked like or what his personality was when he was active with Shijo.

Anyway.

It was certain that loneliness was eating away at Remegeton.

If that’s not what it would be.

“I accept it.”

There’s no way that Remegeton would make a decision this quickly.

Even though this ‘contract’ was basically full of contents that were entirely advantageous to me, Lemegeton didn’t hesitate at all.

Because of one condition that guarantees only one ‘outside world’.

And among these contracts, of course, there was also information transfer.

“… … under.”

Remegeton pointed to his body and laughed.

The guy was cut in half exactly from the body he had just before.

“Was it moving like this? It’s been a long time.”

Maybe 13 or 14 years old?

He touched my body here and there with an appearance that made me wonder if it would be like this if I had a younger brother.

The magic used to temporarily free Remegeton was not much different from Set, so it didn’t take that long.

“According to the contract, your powers are entirely under my control. All you are allowed is the minimum amount of power you can use ‘outside’.”

“I know, I know.”

Remegeton nodded.

“doesn’t care. Even if it’s a power, it’s only effective inside the library, and it wasn’t something that could be used outside.”

“Okay then let’s get to the point. the knowledge you have.”

“What good. What do you want?”

Remegeton continued with a peaceful expression.

“As I said, at this point, only about 30% of the knowledge I have can be viewed.”

“know.”

That’s about what I expected.

No matter how much it is, my authority cannot exceed that of its creator, the founder.

But is that 30 percent less?

no that’s never

Because Lemegeton’s knowledge is enormous.

Even 30 percent of that knowledge would be an enormous amount.

“First, about Sijo.”

“There isn’t much information about my creator that can explain it.”

The guy shrugged.

“The amount of ‘information’ I can tell you is more than less, because I am a magician created by the creator when he established this family.”

The guy shrugged.

“So I don’t know anything about the Creator before that. Of course, that doesn’t mean we know everything about the Creator’s actions after that, too.”

“Then tell me at least that.”

“Hmm, but again, this is not something that can be simply explained in words. … … good.”

Remegeton reached out.

“Let me see you for a second.”

“… … what?”

In that moment, I was blown away.

Then, along with familiar sensations, consciousness came to mind.

The scenery around me changed rapidly and everything began to be reconstructed.

and.

“It’s difficult.”

A voice came.

Before I knew it, a red-eyed man with long hair was in front of me.

It was the founder of the first Marquis of Walpurgis.

* * *

「It’s not easy. I’ve been struggling like this to fulfill the family’s wishes… … .」

Shijo looked somewhat impatient.

He was buried in all sorts of research material.

As if he had not been able to rest for a long time, there were dark shadows under his eyes.

「What should I do… … .」

I turned my head and looked around.

This place appeared to be Sijo’s office.

Surprisingly, the office at this time is no different from the office my father is currently using.

I was curious.

What is the research that Sijo is so anxious about trying?

I looked at the titles of the materials.

-Upper genetics

-Trait change

-Trait reversal

… … .

various research materials.

However, it was difficult to specify exactly what the sijo was trying to do with just those.

Even while I was looking at the data, Sijo was diligently moving.

“Remegeton Remember the theories I studied. Not a single word should be left out.”

“Yes, I understand.”

“But it must not be read by unqualified persons. The same goes for descendants with outstanding talent.”

The founder glared at Remegeton with eyes full of madness.

“Keep in mind that talent and qualifications are not proportional. It must be someone with ‘qualification’.」

「Qualification. I will remember it.”

“Yes, this material… … .」

Pajik.

At that moment, the scenery I was watching began to fluctuate.

There was noise, and the voice of Sijo could not be heard properly.

I somehow concentrated my mind to hear even one more clearly.

“… … separate from… … We must… … I have to do it.”

A little more.

“This world… … keep… … 」

Even if it’s just one letter.

I could barely hear Sijo’s last words clearly.

“We are.”

Sijo said firmly as if he would convey that much.

“It is different from them.”

It is different.

I couldn’t immediately understand who ‘they’ were and what made them different… … .

In any case, it was clearly etched into my brain.

And that was the end.

Again I was swallowed up by the light.

* * *

“Uhm.”

I came to my senses.

As soon as I could somehow distinguish my surroundings, I struggled to make sense of the scenery I had just seen.

[Is Mikhail okay?!]

“He’s fine, but… … ”

I grabbed my head and recalled the information I had just seen.

One thing is clear, however, that Sijo was afraid of something and diligently prepared for it.

Not sure what exactly it is, but… … .

“Remegeton, do you know?”

“I know. Unfortunately, I don’t have the authority to tell you that at this point.”

“… … hmm.”

The history of the great family is by no means short.

Of course, the fear of Sijo that I saw was a long time ago.

‘It was a confusing period.’

The period when the families called ‘big family’ emerged in the empire was a chaotic period that could be said to be the greatest in history.

An empire was not an empire.

A time when conflicts broke out all over the continent and each other openly revealed them to each other.

But I don’t think Sijo was afraid of that.

Plus the word ‘clan’.

‘Is it true that there was a clan to which the founder originally belonged?’

If so, what is that clan?

Many questions appeared and disappeared in my head.

It’s obvious, but the answer wasn’t as clear as I thought.

‘No, it’s okay.’

This is within the expected range.

I didn’t even think that I could clearly know about Sijo from the beginning.

Rather, just having this much information in your hands is a huge income.

So what’s left now.

“Lemegeton.”

“say.”

“How much knowledge about the devil’s ‘plague’ can you read?”

“plague? What is it? Did you come to me to find out that kind of information?”

Remegeton laughed at my words.

“That much is possible.”
