Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 219

The Great Mage who transcends by returning Episode 219

Dragonia.

It is a race that is naturally endowed with strong power, and according to one theory, it is a being known to have been mixed with dragon blood.

The number of people is extremely small.

A little over 100 is a number that would not be strange if it disappeared anytime.

But somehow they stayed alive.

Waiting for a savior who won’t come from a land of their own… … .

“I don’t know when you will come.”

While muttering such words, a girl tossed an apple into the air, which was then chewed and swallowed.

Dragonia’s unique sharp teeth can easily bite an apple.

A sweetness that spreads in your mouth.

The hardened corners of her mouth softened without her knowledge.

Apples are her favorite fruit.

Just smelling the red fruit will make you salivate.

“Now… … .”

The girl got up.

A cool breeze gently rustled her ultramarine hair.

The green eyes that seemed to be studded with jade shed a light light.

“Shall we go to work?”

Those who do not work shall not eat.

Unfortunately, I had to work with the apple I just chewed.

Anyway, shouldn’t you have to pay for what you ate?

Under the shade of an old tree, she came out of the shade.

with a brilliant light.

Under the hill, you can see the view of a small village made for friends with nature.

A semi-circular meadow that spreads out wide like a dragon’s wings and houses located in every corner of it.

There is a field for growing plants, and beautifully carved stone statues are exquisitely harmonized here and there.

The girl, Kyrian, stared at the scenery for a while, then smiled.

Then he headed forward.

Saying goodbye to the same Dragonians she encountered on the way, she went deep into the forest.

At first, it was a forest with such vitality as would be common, but the deeper you go, the more the atmosphere changes.

I felt an unpleasant aura clinging to my flesh.

But Kyrian is used to this much.

Even if it was unpleasant at first, you eventually get used to it after going back and forth over a hundred times.

Stepping on the black withered branches, she found her way with familiarity.

After walking like that for a while, she arrived in front of a cave before she knew it.

The inside of the cave is pitch black.

I can’t see anything.

but in the dark

Something indescribably ominous is coiling around.

boundary between the cave and the outside.

Based on that boundary, strong poisonous air is seething inside.

“Huh… … .”

It wasn’t that he hadn’t come face-to-face with the miasma, but his whole body was tingling.

The moment I touch it, an ominous feeling that the soul itself is likely to be destroyed instinctively fills up.

but.

“Whoa… … .”

even got used to it

She let her fears go, as she always did, and held out the staff she was holding in one hand.

and that moment.

thud!

the earth trembled

but still not shaken

As if she was just doing what she had to do, she just stood there with her wand glowing with a strange light in front of her.

Then the vibration got stronger.

thud! thud! thud!

The ground shook so violently that it couldn’t even compare to the moment before.

Ugh.

In the pitch-black darkness, two gloomy beams of light flowed out.

Light stares at the girl quietly.

Kyrian spoke with a firm voice to the being in the cave.

“No more than this.”

Grr.

‘Something’ in the cave growled and glared at her.

However, the light from the staff she was holding was blocking the advance of that ‘something’.

In the cave, only a weak growl emerges from the darkness.

Kyrian said to that.

“The person you are waiting for has not yet arrived here.”

“… … .”

“You have to be patient.”

“… … I

felt a deep anguish in the invisible darkness.

Anguish that must have continued hundreds and thousands of times.

It’s not strange when it breaks.

in its silence.

The hand holding the cane trembled slightly.

I got used to it, but the fear didn’t disappear.

The existence in that cave has the power to easily annihilate itself and even the clan of this village.

catastrophe.

It’s the worst ending ever.

And she was here on behalf of her clan to prevent the worst.

She reassured it with the same words as her predecessors had.

“Please calm down. A savior will come soon.”

It was clearly meant to reassure him, but at the same time it was for herself.

After a while.

The darkness that had stirred in the cave began to subside little by little.

The loud vibration also stopped.

The surroundings became quiet again as if it had never happened.

Relieved, she let out a small sigh and closed the hand that had stretched out the staff.

This time, somehow, it’s over.

But then.

“Listen.”

The ominous, oppressive sound that came from beyond the cave forced her to recoil involuntarily.

It was the first time.

After she took on this role, a proper message other than a growl was heard from beyond the cave.

I know the identity of ‘something’ inside that cave.

That ‘something’ was once the guardian of the firmament and the glorious guardian of the great.

He was wise and knew honor.

but that’s why

It was also predestined that he be covered with all those insults.

“Soon, on the day when the two moons rise, the darkness will rise and the buried dragon’s blood will boil.”

The voice continued.

「The defeat of the darkness will bring the revival of the clan, but the triumph of the darkness will lead everyone to the end… … .」

The voice was indefinite and muffled. The emotion at the end is resignation or hope.

Kyrian couldn’t even guess, but one thing was clear.

「Whichever way I go, my long patience will come to an end.

」

and.

“ah… … .”

That the clan needs a ‘savior’.

* * *

A week has passed since I finished my work in the Fairy Forest.

As soon as we left the Fairy Forest, we set off straight for our destination.

Dragonia’s village.

The Dragonia race itself is rare and has a strong mystical tendency, so there are only a few people on the continent who know the location of the village.

“Hmm, I’ve traveled all over the world, but I haven’t been to Dragonia’s village.”

The butler, who was walking with a horse on his back as usual, said.

“I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t interested, but unfortunately, Dragonia aren’t people you can meet just because you’re interested.”

“What would it be?”

Dragonia is actually a dragon.

It’s hidden by that terrible fact, but even if you take away the fact that it’s a ‘dragon’ in the first place, Dragonia are enough special beings.

A being mixed with dragon’s blood.

A higher race that doesn’t interact easily with others and has high self-esteem.

They have dragon-specific horns on both sides to match the record that dragon blood is mixed, and their backs are covered with dragon-like vinyl.

The most unusual thing is the two eyes.

Commonly called ‘the dragon’s eye’, it is said to be able to see the rightness and wrongness of others and sense the existence between reality and fantasy.

He is blessed in many ways.

No, considering the truth I heard from the World Tree, it might be more accurate to say that I was cursed.

… … Whatever.

“In other words, they are a race that even the butler who traveled all over the world sweatingly did not see when he was young.”

“That’s right.”

The butler smiled and said.

“I’m not saying you won’t find that race. You’ll know how to find it. But it’s bound to take time… … .”

“Hmm.”

I left the butler’s words behind and looked ahead.

Right now there is nothing that looks like a village around.

Forest untouched by man.

In the first place, these forests are ordinary forests found anywhere on the continent.

but.

‘therefore… … Did you say it was just camouflage?’

It was only after they were annihilated by the great demons that I clearly recognized the race called ‘Dragonia’.

special by nature.

Originally, these might have been the greatest power to oppose the Demon God.

It simply annihilated them.

There is no way that cunning Asmodeus didn’t do anything.

As if to show off his specialty, he revealed the village of Dragonia in front of everyone.

How was it hidden?

What great potential they had… … .

He showed everyone the village of Dragonia, which had fallen into disrepair.

It was literally miserable.

Red blood pooled everywhere and horribly torn bodies of Dragonia.

… … It was such a horror that I couldn’t even think of a great race that had been piled up in that long mystery.

Anyway, thanks to him, I know exactly where the Dragonians are hiding.

‘Dragonia’s village was inside the imperial territory.’

That is how the tragedy of Dragonia before the return was revealed to the whole world.

The village of Dragonia was within the Empire.

The opposite truth to the hypothesis that it might be outside the Empire and even on another continent.

So obviously… … .

“Bocchan, wouldn’t it be better to look after getting the information properly?”

Then the butler asked cautiously.

All he sees is grass and trees with no personality.

It’s not unusual for me to react that way.

“It’s better to get certain information than to search without information in a place like this for no reason… … .”

“I have information.”

“… … yes?”

I quietly pointed to the sky.

As a hero, the existence of ‘Hekau’ is really good to use.

It would be solved by simply saying the name of Hekau, even if it was quite unreasonable.

Truly an all-round probability maker.

“Uh um… … .”

Behold, even that stubborn butler did not back down at the name of Hekau.

The best probability maker.

“That’s convenient. Riddles that even famous scholars could not solve were solved by his words… … .”

“If you twist it, you’ll become a hero.”

“… … Chet.”

The butler quietly clicked his tongue and stepped back.

I smiled and continued searching through the bushes.

And how much time has passed

“hmm.”

After a lot of searching around, I was able to find what I was looking for.

“… … hmm?”

Ariandel, who had been quietly watching what I was doing, tilted his head and approached me.

“that… … Is it a stone slab?”

“Yes, that’s right.”

A small stone slab cleverly hidden between the bushes.

There is no singular corner.

There is no special sentence written on it, nor is there a symbol engraved on it.

At first glance, the appearance is so insignificant that one might wonder if it is an ordinary stone.

But I was sure.

That this humble slate is the key that will lead us to Dragonia.

Aileen also asked me subtly if I was interested.

“Well, is this what it is? It’s like a way for Dragonians to open the portal.”

“Ah, that’s not it.”

What is the identity of this slate?

It’s that simple.

“It’s just a seizure button.”

“yes? seizure… … what?”

Eileen tilted her head, then narrowed her eyes.

“I think I heard some very ominous words. Can you repeat them?”

“It’s called the seizure button.”

“… … .”

Aileen stared into the air as if she was momentarily confused by my words.

After a while, she rechecked her experiences and information about me so far… … .

“Stop! stop! Now that I’ve heard that, the normal way… … !”

“Yeah, I hate it.”

I said that and broke the stone slab.

Of course, the stone slabs were easily crumbled to the point of futility.

That moment.

thud!

The space around it shuddered.

No matter how you look at it, it doesn’t seem like a good reaction.

Aileen’s face, who tried to stop me, also turned blue.

“What are you talking about?! No, more than that, the stone slab you just smashed… … .”

“It’s nothing.”

Whatever it is, a specific medium is required to maintain a specific magical barrier.

The same goes for the barrier hiding the village of Dragonia.

Of course, there are various mediators needed to maintain the barrier, and there are many safety devices.

But there are also some that are particularly important.

“Is it just the core of the fantasy barrier that maintains the village of Dragonia?”

“Wait a minute then… … .”

“I don’t know, but I don’t know, but Dragonia, who sensed something strange, would come here with full hostility, right?”

“Crazy man, then that’s not a good thing! Why did you break this thing!”

“Are you coming anyway?”

Whether you come here angry or to welcome it, it’s the same thing.

Yes, even if the process is a bit tedious, isn’t it just as long as the results are good?

“… … .”

At my reaction, my companions looked at me like crazy.

And after a while… … .

“No, this crazy hero is real?!”

The first to roar was Aileen, who claimed to be a common sense person among the group.

and at the same time.

Kwaaang!

A powerful force hit the area directly.
