Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 267
The great mage who transcends by regression Episode 267
Wise ate.
really.
He physically ate the < Longinus > that was said to have fatally wounded a divine being.
I want to say something crazy, but it’s true. It just suddenly opened its mouth and ate Longinus.
what the hell is he
They say they were born from me, but where on earth do they say that I have the power to devour such things?
I’ll turn, really.
– It is the best gourmet.
Weiss licked her lips in satisfaction.
A lot has changed in a short period of time.
He received a proper name from me and ate < Longinus >, which belonged to the pinnacle of sacred objects.
It is strange that there is no change.
Especially when I think of how visibly unstable he was when he first appeared in front of me.
Yes, that’s definitely true… … .
“What makes you look like me?”
why do you look like me
If you look at the appearance right now, would you say it’s similar to Remegeton?
Just like when I was younger.
The only difference is that my hair is longer than mine… … .
– Well, since they were born from their father, it is only natural that they look similar.
“… … hmm.”
It’s definitely not wrong, but I don’t know why I’m embarrassed.
Certainly, as Wise said, it originated from me, so it’s not unusual for it to take on a similar appearance.
– Even if it looks similar, it’s only the size of my father’s palm after all.
“… … Hmm.”
I swung the staff around.
Of course, it didn’t happen that the appearance of the staff changed just because Wise grew up.
Just staff as staff.
Wise is just like Wise.
“Are you really a spirit?”
– I said it before, but my father doesn’t know, so how can I know?
That’s it.
But apart from that, what can I say? It’s more like something else than a spirit.
Of course, it is said that all ‘trajectory spirits’ are like that.
[By the way, Mikhail.]
Then Set said.
[Can I stay still like this? Mamon seems to have been completed. I think there must be something to deal with.]
“There is nothing to be done… … .”
cooong!
At that time, an explosion occurred on the other side.
A huge building was collapsing in a really cool way.
“… … hmm.”
Oh yes.
There was that.
* * *
By the time Mikhail finished his work, the five of them felt an unprecedented sense of liberation.
Yes!
The sense of liberation that you can destroy anything you come across without paying attention!
reputation? Aftermath?
No need to worry!
Because they are now working on demolition work as ‘heroes’.
It was because he believed that whatever he did, Mikhail would take care of it.
He was pretty good at handling the situation.
But, as always, nothing lasts forever.
What remains after burning to the fullest is emptiness and a handful of anxiety.
“… … hmm.”
When he came to his senses, half of the kingdom’s capital had been blown away.
Now that I’ve come this far, I can’t stop thinking about this.
… … was it a bit harsh?
Or, to put it bluntly, I think the problem might have been that the city was half-threshed after blowing up a building related to a merchant house… … .
“Is this really okay?”
“Wouldn’t Mikhail take care of it somehow?”
Eileen and Lian chatted leisurely while looking down at the collapsed capital city.
Of course, even as I said that, I couldn’t stop the slight anxiety from raising my head.
Honestly, at this point, I started to think that it was almost impossible to recover.
I don’t know if it’s a certain kingdom.
But it’s not a sale.
The economic foundation has completely collapsed and the royal family has also lost its trust, so a rebellion may arise at any moment.
Thinking about that, I started to get a little anxious.
That’s because he didn’t think that this mess would be resolved in a short period of time.
Besides, so is the atmosphere.
“The hero is the cause!”
“Let’s kill our hero! The hero is my enemy!”
The atmosphere that seemed to catch and kill the hero at any moment pervaded the capital.
companions know
In any case, what they did this time was necessary.
If someone hadn’t done it, the entire capital might have been covered with the undead.
But it’s also true that you can’t blindly ask them to understand.
“… … Hmm, this is true.”
With his hands behind his back, the butler who made a great contribution to this demolition shook his head.
“The situation is very dizzy.”
“How could Mikhail do it? I don’t think it’s going to be an easy situation, even for Mikhail… … .”
Ariandel also looked down with a worried expression.
When everyone was so worried.
“There will be no problem.”
Sage Herma spoke in a calm voice.
Even at this moment, he was diligently recording something, but he continued talking without taking his eyes off the record.
“Because there is an obvious motive for this, and that ‘motivation’ must be quite understandable.”
“But King Crozen… … .”
“If I was going to assert my rights so confidently, shouldn’t I have taken responsibility in the first place?”
Herma said calmly.
“If you look at it objectively, it was a kingdom that would collapse in a more miserable way anyway. It would be better to prescribe a poisonous drug even now.”
“Ha but… … .”
The problem is that the value of the name ‘Hero’ may fall to the ground in the process of prescribing the extreme drug.
But that was then.
“… … Well, of course, it’s not like I wasn’t prepared. I have a request from the hero in advance.”
Saying that, Herma let out a small sigh.
“It’s strange that my records are being used in this way, but there’s nothing wrong with that.”
“… … yes?”
Everyone except Herma tilted their heads.
Could it be that Mikhail had instructed Herma to do something in the meantime?
and after a while
“I took myself as an officer of the former warriors. Besides, I am acquiring a lot of knowledge to the point of being called a ‘wise man’.”
Herma said that and put an end to the ‘Record’ in her hand.
Then, isn’t a bright light coming from the record?
“Hoo.”
The butler’s eyes widened as if he was interested.
“You noticed, Merdin.”
Herma smiled and unfolded her own record that radiated bright light.
“My records are not just limited to text. As an officer of the hero, I record everything related to the former hero… … .”
“… … Can you play it?”
Herma nodded with a mischievous smile.
“That’s it.”
Hwaaak!
Bright light stretched towards the sky.
yet… … .
< No matter what you do, the necessary rituals are almost done! As long as it's like this... … . >
Phyllum, Capital of Sale.
In front of the people there, the true face of the colossus named Avaricia was revealed.
Leaving out unnecessary parts.
It is the ‘truth’ that highlights the wickedness of the great demon called Mamon.
* * *
A few days later.
“Uh um… … .”
Krochen, the king of Seil, was chewing on his rice with a shrunken expression on his face.
And on the other side is none other than me, Mikhail Walpurgis.
“It tastes good, Your Highness. Half of the people are starving to death because they don’t even have enough grass to eat for a day, but they eat really well.”
“… … Can I clean it up?”
“Hey, are you going to clean up this cooked food again on a whim? I think this is really great haha!”
I laughed and chewed the meat in front of me.
Every time I spoke, Crozen’s shoulders shrank.
“Uh uh… … .”
“If you have shame, it’s right to lower your head like that. haha.”
At my words, Crochen’s expression turned black.
Within a few days, his position had noticeably decreased.
of course.
It was revealed that Avarittia, whom he trusted so much, was in fact the great devil who tried to turn the entire people into undead.
It was all thanks to Herma’s records.
Even the truth related to me exquisitely has been ‘edited’, so it couldn’t be better than this.
Still, isn’t it too much to go out to the king of a country?
Okay.
Because Sale is a small country.
Originally, he had potential, but Crochen himself forgot all of that.
In other words, this treatment now is the result of Crochen himself.
In fact, it’s actually serious.
No other being, but the Great Devil was directly involved in state affairs.
It was a problem that could turn the entire continent into an enemy.
No matter how stupid I am, I’m not stupid enough to not know that.
“I am really… … .”
“Don’t you know? Your Highness’ words mean nothing.”
I said that and lightly sliced the meat in front of me.
Really good quality.
To the point where I couldn’t even imagine that there were a lot of people starving to death even if I went out of the capital right now.
“Ah, Your Highness… … what should i do to you You who tried to cooperate with the public great devil of mankind.”
“I really didn’t know he was the Prime Evil… … !”
“Just because you don’t know doesn’t mean it’s all. I don’t know why you’re pretending not to know that obvious fact.”
At my words, Crochen’s shoulders trembled.
A few days ago, there was nowhere to be seen showing off the arrogance of the country dreaming of becoming a military powerhouse.
I have no intention of giving Crochen the honor of being a king.
Of course, I had no intention of giving him a sense of self-esteem.
“You see? The dream of becoming a military power that Mamon instilled in you was a trick that even a child would not be fooled by.”
“… … .”
“Your father… … ah yes Let’s stop talking about this. It means nothing.”
I stared at him quietly.
The moment he catches my gaze right now, that moment will be like hell to him.
“Why did you want to gain such strong power? Were they planning to increase the national treasury by raiding prosperous neighboring countries and stealing their property?”
“That that… … .”
It’s funny.
Damn it, so many people are suffering because of this guy.
“A king like that is meaningless. It is not that there is no talent to replace them. I’m the one who thinks it’s the right thing to do if there’s room for conversion.”
I remembered before the regression.
And now, I saw Krozen, who was bowing his head in front of me with an awkward appearance.
“I guess I’ll tell you… … I don’t think there’s any need for that.”
“… … !”
“You are not the only member of the royal family on this sale… … .”
He laughed as he said that, but Crozen couldn’t even refute.
I am the Great Mage of the 8th Circle.
Maybe I’ll reach the 9th circle soon. In addition, as a hero, he has even gained cooperation from the Empire and the Churches.
Crochen couldn’t do anything to me.
There is nothing more to say if even the justification is being pushed back.
I savored the taste of the food while waiting quietly.
Regardless of Crochen’s stupidity, the taste of the food itself wasn’t bad.
“What do you want me to do… … me i… … .”
“What should I do?”
Funny thing.
That I want Crochen to do something? What does that man who is not touching his feet want to do?
no it can’t be
“Your Highness, think about it. did you say Now I don’t want anything from you.”
“I am… … .”
“You can just give up and let go. If you don’t want to… … .”
I quietly clasped my hand.
At that moment, the plate that had been in front of Crochen a moment ago crumbled and disappeared without a trace.
“You have to be prepared for that.”
“Hee hee hee?!”
It’s pathetic.
How many people were suffering from hunger and famine.
However, the king who should be responsible for such people is like this.
“This time will change! Unlike before, he cares about the people and what his father wanted… … !”
“You have already abandoned your people. That’s it. Do you really think the people will be able to trust and follow the king who abandoned them?”
It can’t be.
With those words, he stood up.
“Yo warrior please… … !”
A desperate voice came from behind, but it meant nothing.
“… … Tsk.”
It’s obvious, but it doesn’t feel good.
Clearly, Sale is a foreign country, so I, as an outsider, did not want to intervene.
But there are some things that don’t change.
If so, be firm when cutting.
A few days later,
a new king was crowned in Seir.
And no one in Seir regretted the dethroned king.
* * *
After finishing the sale, I briefly explained the current situation to everyone.
“… … So, did you say that the Demon God actually reached the point right before his descent?”
“yes.”
“By the way, we’re not sure whether it actually descended or not?”
“Unfortunately.”
Everyone’s mood went down quite a bit at my answer.
Especially, except for me, Herma and Ariandel, who should have known about the existence of demons, were darker than anyone else.
“… … In the end, the time I was so wary of is coming.”
“It was natural that it couldn’t be stopped, but now that it happens again, I can’t help but be afraid.”
If so, what should I do?
Since then, I’ve been thinking about the future course, but in the end, there is only one conclusion.
“That’s why I think I’ll have to go back to my family first.”
“hmm… … ? suddenly?”
“Oh suddenly.”
It wasn’t really something to hide from my colleagues, so I told everyone.
“Don’t be alarmed, listen.”
“Oh yes… … ?”
“I guess… … .”
The truth I’m about to reveal is sure to be very surprising and may be the truth you don’t want… … .
There are also truths that need to be revealed.
“It seems that the founder of my family, Walpurgis, is related to the demon.”
I quietly waited for the reaction of my colleagues.
There may be a little bad reaction like this, but it’s something I have to handle.
Silence hung between us.
And Ryan was the first to speak.
He looked at me with a serious expression… … .
“Hmm, was it like that?”
He nodded as if he understood.
He glanced at the other side and nodded, saying that he understood everything.
No, why do you understand?
Don’t blindly convince me.
“No, could it have something to do with drinking my blood? Be a warrior! It has something to do with that demon!”
“No, even if you say so.”
Ryan spoke to me in a calm voice.
“You weren’t even like a normal hero until now.”
“… … .”
“It can be mixed. Demon blood.”
“No shit.”
Why the hell are you convinced?
That’s not what I’m saying, but be a little suspicious.
no no
Ariandel may have been shocked.
She is the person who affirms me as a warrior more than anyone else.
Of course she… … !
“It’s okay, Mikhail. There is a saying that the enemy of an enemy is a friend.”
“… … No, really, don’t convince me with that kind of thinking.”
Oh really. Some.
