Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 155
Episode 155
A week has passed.
“Bone is a part of the body that attaches better than I thought.”
With a new realization, I started the day full of hope.
The morning sun is very warm today.
[You really have an indomitable will. It fell from there and survived.]
“I got used to it.”
Personally, I am confident that I grew up really strong.
When I think about it now, I really respect myself in the past.
‘How on earth was I in the past that I couldn’t come to my senses even after being smashed so many times?’
It really can’t be a mystery.
me in the past amazing!
In many ways, I just think that he has indomitable mental strength.
“Whatever.”
The work related to Remegeton was roughly finished.
I ended up dedicating the bridge to my father, but that was within the expected range.
If possible, he hoped that the prospect of dedicating the bridge to his father would go awry, but what could he do with this predestined fate?
Anyway, the important thing is that it went as planned, for better or for worse.
[What are you going to do now?]
“What should I do? I’ll have to beat the devil again as soon as I shut up.”
Now, as of before the descent of the Demon God, there are five remaining great demons.
If possible, it would be nice if Enoch acted foolishly and came on his own, but in reality, such luck cannot be expected.
The two great demons have already been annihilated.
Of course, in Pandaemonium, the judgment must have come that no more ‘lord’ should be lost.
There’s no way they’ll let Enoch act rashly anymore.
They must have thought that it would be beneficial to keep their intervention at a minimum from now on and hold out until the Demon God descends.
[Is that why it’s called ‘plague’?]
“That’s it.”
Whether it’s in a mental or physical sense, they’re sure to do something.
The most similar thing to that ‘something’ before returning was the plague.
The identity of the plague is the contagion of madness.
Madness drives people crazy and naturally divides groups.
If it works properly, there is no method that can cause chaos in the world as much as that.
After it spreads, it’s too late.
Before returning, the first report of this madness contagion was in the Western Great Forest outside the Empire, called the ‘Dark Forest’.
If they really intend to infect madness, that won’t be much different from the return war.
There is no better place to spread madness than the Dark Forest.
“Are you going to leave immediately, contractor?”
Then a voice was heard from the other side. When I turned my head, there was Remegeton.
He was sitting in a chair, munching on snacks.
“Well, being a hero is a bit overly busy job, so it can’t be helped.”
“What else do you eat like that?”
“What to eat? It’s a snack I haven’t had in so many years.”
Remegeton waved the candy in his hand as if it were natural.
“I am not just a magician. Of course I eat food and I get pleasure from it.”
“I thought I also lost my hobby as my size decreased.”
“No, that sounds rude.”
Remegeton said that, then picked up a jelly and munched it.
Then he shrugged.
“Anyway, I will faithfully keep the contract I made with the contractor as a magician. In fact, it is true that I have no choice but to protect it.”
“I will remember the contents of the contract.”
“I know, I know. Do not leave the mansion. As long as I’m outside the library, I can’t use my abilities as a magician without the consent of the contractor, and I can’t harm people.”
A unilaterally favorable contract for me.
The only thing Remegeton was allowed to do was the right to enjoy ‘daily life’ as a member of Walpurgis.
Inside the mansion, he can live the daily life he wants.
Grab a snack, explore accepted knowledge, or build constructive relationships with others… … .
stuff like that.
It was a contract that was possible to make because what Lemegeton wanted was this much freedom.
“Are you satisfied with that?”
“Haha contractor.”
The boy giggled and laughed.
“The contractor has no idea how terrible solitude without a promise is. The apostle over there might know, but really… … It is a pain that only those who have experienced it know. that.”
“… … .”
“Well, since I’m not a human, but a sorcerer, I could have endured at least.”
loneliness.
Certainly I have experienced many tragedies, but solitude was not among them.
That’s why I can’t fully understand what he’s saying now.
“I just want to say that this is enough for me. Besides, from the point of view of the contractor, my presence is necessary, right?”
“yes.”
“This is a mutually beneficial transaction. Well then, let’s end the pointless story here. From this one.”
Remegeton said that and grabbed my wrist.
At that moment, red energy flowed from him and began to seep into me.
“This… … ”
“< Remegeton >’s access rights.”
The guy continued.
“Since you can’t take me out of the mansion, you need to have a means to access knowledge, even informally, right? I just gave it to you.”
Remegeton’s access rights.
As a test, I just aroused the power Remegeton gave me.
‘I’m not used to it.’
Even before returning, he had never read Remegeton.
But still, it seems possible.
“Can you do without my help?”
“Take a look.”
The guy’s aura that dwells in me is quite similar to that of the devil, as I first thought.
‘But as he said, it’s hard to see him as a complete devil.’
How should I express this?
demons and humans.
Something in between?
It doesn’t have the unique ominousness and sliminess of being a devil, and it’s too dark to be anything other than that.
What’s interesting is that I instinctively have a sense of how to deal with this aura.
Could this be an instinct imprinted in Walpurgis’ blood itself?
Since Remegeton is a magic book created by the founder himself, it will be closely related to us, so it is not strange at all.
As I concentrated, I felt a tingling sensation in my wrist, and a small palm-sized booklet was summoned into the air.
“Huh, did you really succeed right away?”
Remegeton looked at me with a puzzled expression.
“This booklet you summoned is the ‘Simplified Remegeton’. It’s a thing that boldly deletes information that can’t be read anyway and only puts in the real exhaust.”
“hmm.”
“Everything you want will be there. If there is something you want, it will come to your mind.”
As I thought of the information I wanted to read slowly, knowledge came to my mind.
The knowledge about the dark forest that I wanted to know first.
‘Right. Is it like this?’
It’s quite pleasant to get your hands on things you didn’t get before returning.
especially knowledge.
He knew vague information about the Dark Forest, but he did not know detailed information.
However, the knowledge that came to my mind was definitely ‘detailed information’.
“To go to the Dark Forest?”
“For now, I think so.”
The guy nodded, as if the information I had read was passed on to Remegeton as well.
“Well, it’s not a bad choice. If you’re a hero, one of your duties is to inspire those venomous species in the Dark Forest.”
Remegeton’s eyes shone.
Poisonous species of the Dark Forest.
Of course, I know what he means by ‘poisonous species’.
Originally innocent beings who were born with the blessing of the World Tree, but those who escaped from such a World Tree.
That’s why the people of the world called them ‘dog breeds’ or ‘renegades’, so their true identity is… … .
‘Dark elf.’
The renegade of the elves and the owner of the dark forest with the mad fairy.
They were the protagonists of the problem I had to solve this time.
* * *
I headed straight for my father’s office.
In any case, I needed to say goodbye before leaving.
“Come on, son.”
My father greeted me with a smile and a benevolent expression.
It is hard to believe that it is the expression of a person who flapped his wings just a week ago.
“How did you feel this father’s love after a long time?”
“Dad, this time I realized the precious truth that violence doesn’t solve anything.”
“Heh heh really?”
My father patted the tuk-tuk staff and silently watched me.
“Of course, it is meaningless in the face of more overwhelming violence. Let’s talk about the staff first.”
It couldn’t have been a truly heartwarming father and son relationship. It was so heartwarming that even tears came out.
[They said that Mikhail said that he earned his own money by doing this.]
It was also sad that he couldn’t deny Seth’s words.
“Yeah, seeing you come here now. It looks like you’re going to leave right away, is that right?”
“Yes, I do not have time.”
“I guess so.”
My father muttered that, then frowned for a moment.
“Okay, have a good trip. As a father, I don’t know well that my son isn’t the kind of guy who will get hit anywhere anyway.”
“I guess so.”
Likewise, my father also hit when he hit him, but he was never the type to be beaten by anyone.
“So, by the way, I’m going to take some people out of Thalia.”
“hmm? Well, it doesn’t really matter since they’re the talents you recommended, but did something happen?”
“I was thinking of going to the Dark Forest.”
“Hoo.”
At my words, my father smiled lightly.
“The next destination was somewhere, but is it the dark forest… … It’s fun.”
“Not a good place for sightseeing.”
“Well, a neighborhood full of man-eating plants and crazy fairies raiding travelers on fictitious days is certainly far from touristic.”
just as my father said
The Dark Forest is one of the best demonic landscapes in the entire continent.
It is a place that even a fairly experienced adventurer party would not want to approach.
“By the way, taking the two of them to the Dark Forest means that they are from… … “
Yes, it must be the Dark Forest.”
My father would have known roughly.
It seemed that he had guessed to some extent the identity of Hedos or Mia when we first met.
Not all dark elves live in the dark forest, but all the ‘noble’ dark elves live in the dark forest.
“However, there is only one meaning that a Dark Elf from the Dark Forest came out. Do you know?”
“Yes, I know.”
“Furthermore, I didn’t bother to tell you, but recently there have been ‘uninvited guests’ wandering around the estate.”
gate crasher.
never a good thing
If my father dared to say the word ‘uninvited guest’ at this timing… … .
“It must mean that he has a fairly important position even in the Dark Forest.”
“I didn’t try to belong to our family fence for nothing. There was a reason for everything.”
Thalia’s guild leader Hados.
His foster daughter, Dark Elf Mia.
I knew that the two had a complicated relationship and that they were entangled in troublesome incidents.
The curse of Master Assassin Hedos, Mia’s reaction, and the secret decision to take place in the capital… … .
In many ways, the two seemed impatient but full of vigilance.
‘Of course, I took everything.’
If we roughly sum up the knowledge before returning and make a guess, we can guess the identity of the two to some extent.
“I heard that the Dark Elves choose a ‘shaman’ to prove their legitimacy in order to unite their race.”
“Yes. And usually, the selection of the shrine maiden is cruel and forced.”
My father frowned as he said that.
“… … The end is also unfortunate.”
It is not unusual for the unfortunate shaman to run away.
Everyone dreams of a happy life since they are born with life.
The shrine maiden would be no different.
Dark Elf Mia.
Need to check more.
But I was sure.
The knowledge obtained through Remegeton just now spoke.
Although not well known, the name Mia means ‘apprentice’ in the language of the Dark Elves.
At the same time, the Dark Elf who is destined to become a shaman takes Master Assassin as a seed and receives his protection.
A Dark Elf whose name means ‘Apprentice’ with Master Assassin.
really.
Isn’t that a pretty exquisite coincidence?
Great mage who transcends by regression
