Archmage Transcending Through Regression - Chapter 77

Episode 77

Before returning, I’ve seen how distorted beings can become when they’ve been consumed by demons.

Although the degree is different for each of them, the original form collapses and they simply give up on human beings to the point of feeling futile.

Usually it doesn’t last long.

Even more so in the capital of this religious state, where the power of God is concentrated.

Even so, if the devil dared to encroach on humans, that meant only one thing.

‘It’s no longer worth using.’

The Archbishop, who was hit directly by the storm, staggered once.

“what… … what… … do… … ”

Gradually the archbishop’s pronunciation began to become inaccurate.

Then he held his head as if he had a headache.

“timing… … Revelation… … ”

“Archbishop!”

He raised his hand to stop Siegfried from charging him.

“Until there. Be quiet if you don’t want to get caught up in it.”

After saying that, I approached the archbishop who distanced himself from me.

“You will have a headache. If you really don’t want to go to the point of turning back, you have to shake it off, Archbishop.”

“Would you shake it off? haha! A revelation came to me… … A revelation!”

The archbishop cried out to me with tears of blood.

“I hoped for a revelation all my life! With that one thought, I prayed to God and was jealous of Gregorius!”

“… … .”

“Now you can hear me. A lifelong longing… … !”

“That is your misunderstanding.”

I roughly cleared my ears and snorted at the archbishop’s words.

“That’s not a revelation, it’s just called a death sentence. You damn pseudo.”

“No no!”

The Archbishop shouted desperately.

Desperately, as if his own ‘revelation’ could not be denied.

“Now what’s wrong… … It’s you guys that’s wrong! me i… … ”

“Ah, that’s it.”

I won’t listen to you anymore.

There is no need to prolong this skit.

“I wish I could have gotten along like this. Can you see your true colors now?”

Beyond the Archbishop.

“You mean Mayril.”

“… … .”

At that moment, Archbishop Cillian’s body sagged like a puppet with a string cut off.

Then suddenly the archbishop raised his head.

Then it spoke through the mouth of the Archbishop.

「Since when?」

“From the beginning.”

“Kickit.”

The black goat giggled as if it were funny at my words.

The appearance of the archbishop giggling with only his neck raised in a state where his whole body was stretched was bizarre.

“It’s unexpected.”

She stuttered and looked at me with interest. “

Are you the wizard who caught the ugly guy?”

You are next.”

“Kuki kit.”

Mayrille laughed as if it were fun.

An attitude that is laughable, as if watching an over-the-top joke.

“Arthur, it’s a child.”

“I’m not a child.”

“I know you have a lot of power. But I’ve existed like this for a long time.」

You can’t win.

Know who you are dealing with.

Meiril’s words roughly meant that.

but.

“The bastard threat.”

It was ridiculous to me.

If you had been in a situation where everything would be irreversible before returning, you might have felt helpless after hearing this.

one i know

‘The bluff is amazing.’

Merrill is nervous.

That the ugly lord Baalzebub had fallen helplessly.

No matter how much I throw away.

In a situation where I haven’t fully regained my strength yet, the news can’t help but call for nervousness.

“Threat? no this… … Actually.”

“Whether it is true or not.”

thud!

After taking a step forward, he pushed the staff forward.

“It’s none of my business.”

「Kuki kit, then I also have an idea.」

As if prepared, Meiril reached out her black hand.

“It’s not just this old man that I’ve influenced.”

“I know. other archbishops? Since Lotus is not here, of course he must be there.”

“… … !」

At my words, Meiril’s eyes trembled.

Like how did you know that?

“It’s obvious.”

yes meylil you

“Being devilishly stupid is just what you would do.”

* * *

‘It’s in between.’

Rian, mingling with the Archbishop, looked around with sharp eyes.

-Find the one who harbors the devil.

From my experience, I was certain that what Mikhail said would become reality with a high probability.

And that it can never be trivial.

‘devil.’

It was also the reason they came to the church.

Not even an ordinary person, but a situation where an archbishop-level existence is intertwined.

Ryan broke out in a cold sweat.

What the hell did that bastard believe in entrusting himself with such a heavy responsibility… … .

‘I’m not saying that all of the archbishops here could end up going to the goal if I do something wrong.’

Couldn’t it have been done more safely?

But the damn guy.

– Directing is important.

He just said something incomprehensible, and abruptly entrusted this responsibility to himself.

the problem is.

‘It’s Magi and divine power, and I can’t detect it.’

pup… … .

If you entrusted the work, shouldn’t you at least tell me how to solve it?

We ended up hanging out together, but Mikhail was truly an asshole.

He’s not a bad guy, but he has a bit of a damn side to him anyway.

But that was then.

I was looking around the archbishops for a while.

Wasn’t the light flowing from the sword that was suddenly tied to the waist?

“hmm… … ?”

Ryan took it out of his waistband.

Each time it moved, the light became weaker and stronger.

then then

anger.

Suddenly the light became clear.

It was around the time an archbishop passed by.

Ryan reflexively looked in the direction of the archbishop.

I didn’t know all the archbishops, but that archbishop was familiar.

‘I’m sure he belonged to the old man’s family named Killian, right?’

At that moment, Lian opened her mouth unconsciously.

“Please stop.”

“hmm?”

One of the archbishops who had passed him hesitantly turned his head.

And it was Ryan who was surprised.

‘her.’

I saw something out of the ordinary.

Something with sharp horns… … .

‘Black goat?’

It stood on the Archbishop’s shoulder, staring at him.

Those eyes are endlessly unpleasant and terrifying… … .

Keying.

Lian unwittingly pulled the sword from the scabbard.

At that moment, the archbishop flinched.

“What are you doing right now!”

Seeing the Archbishop’s bewildered expression, his head turned quickly.

And by the time Mikhail’s words came to mind.

‘Did you mean that?’

Then everything made sense.

If so, what needs to be done is clear.

No, rather than being obvious, I knew it the moment I saw that.

He didn’t lower his sword.

Instead, the sword was injected with an aura.

Surprisingly, a white aura came out of the sword along with the aura… … .

– Kyaaak!

Isn’t it like starting to tangle the black goat behind you?

Rather, what surprised me was the Archbishop, from whom the goat had sprouted.

“What is this… … ?! Why is this in my body… … !”

Archbishop’s astonishment.

However, Lian couldn’t afford to listen to it leisurely.

‘This crazy.’

He immediately realized the meaning of the ‘light’ he had seen.

And I remembered the worst assumption.

‘this… … How many times did it flash earlier?’

It wasn’t as clear as before, but it certainly shone several times. At that time, the Archbishop wouldn’t have been around either.

that it is

‘no way.’

Ryan’s eyes hurriedly searched elsewhere.

After the pure white light just before, I started to see that demon quite clearly.

black goat.

Their eyes flashed, and they stretched out all at once.

corner beyond.

“Hee hee.”

A high-ranking priest was looking at himself with an extremely hideous look with his mouth torn.

“… … Oh crazy.”

It seems too cunning and evil to be called a priest.

What does it mean?

‘devil.’

Something must be done.

At this rate, this area will be destroyed by this damn demon… … .

“You’re late, human!”

However, before he could finish his thoughts, black energy burst out simultaneously from various places.

“What… … ?!”

“What the hell is this ominous aura!”

The archbishops who were caught up screamed and tried to generate divine power.

But to no avail.

“Ha ha done! It’s done!”

“Ha Haran, a high-ranking priest?!”

“Why is that child… … !”

Several archbishops were shocked to see Haran displaying ominous power.

Harran no Lotus shouted.

“No one escapes! The Hekau have abandoned you, and you are no more and no less than prey to us… … !”

With those words, the dark energy quickly began to consume the archbishops as if laughing at everyone.

The space that used to be filled with piety and sanctity was no longer there.

“Damn it… … !”

Ryan screamed.

If even the holy power of the archbishops is not used properly, that means only one thing.

‘The situation he foresaw.’

I was warned once.

A threat that cannot be ignored. There must have been an intervention by an ominous entity such as the Great Devil.

‘What should I do?’

My head doesn’t turn properly because of nervousness.

“Keuuugh!”

“This power… … no way!”

Already, the archbishops in the area were falling down one by one, complaining of difficulty breathing and clutching their chests.

And it turned black.

One by one the archbishops known to have been perfected religiously, not others… … .

‘Damn it!’

Calm down, Ryan.

Inwardly, he muttered to himself several times as he raised his sword.

Even if it was easy, I couldn’t be swayed by the devil like this.

You can’t even be swung around.

That was when I made that decision.

“… … uh?”

light.

A time when everyone was confused and in despair.

slowly.

White light, like snow, fell from the air.

Although it was slow, the demons that filled the surroundings began to wash away.

light came down

The light accumulated on the floor slowly bloomed, clearing away the rooted evil so naturally.

“her.”

The Archbishops, who had been struggling to drive out the demons just before, stopped everything without even realizing it.

I just look like I’m possessed.

In the meantime, clear tears flowed down the wrinkled cheeks of an archbishop.

That was the beginning.

The tears spread like an infection.

Even though they hadn’t decided on each other, the old people started to shed tears as if they were weaving each other.

“iced coffee.”

A light not seen in over a hundred years.

A light that no one in this place dared to touch.

what does this mean

And who knows what to do.

“Oh God.”

Everyone, no matter who they were, knelt quietly.

The only ones who did not kneel were those who were caught in confusion by the black goat.

And a voice was heard.

『Listen, children.』

A message well over a hundred years old.

However, everyone in the room knew what that voice meant.

Wise hekau.

The significance of the existence of the church.

A benevolent god who has supported mankind for a long time and has bestowed divine power.

God said.

『Darkness covered all ears and eyes for a long time. However, the talent I bestowed has come to you by cutting through the darkness… … 』

The god stretched out his hand.

It was invisible, but everyone knew it was.

It was a benevolent hand that anyone who believes can feel.

the darkness clears

Black goats showed their sharp teeth in the light.

As if they still had a chance, they moved by destroying the archbishops they were attached to.

no i didn’t want to move

But the miracle did not end there.

“Stand up.”

Lian moved.

He unknowingly raised his sword and stamped it on the floor.

Divine power rages.

What the fuck is this… … No, I don’t know how the godly situation goes.

‘it will work out somehow.’

– Directing is important.

Naturally, the words of the guy come to mind.

Yes, that bastard. He knew it would end like this anyway, so he must have sent it like that.

He said he was a warrior, so he must have had a one-on-one meeting with God.

It’s a ridiculous idea, but if it’s him, it’s enough to accomplish.

So I asked.

“How can I do it?”

『Free you.』

Strangely enough, the moment he heard those words, Lian knew what to do without even realizing it.

The stagnant state is at a standstill.

Rapid growth to the extent that the efforts made so far are laughable.

But whatever anyone says.

“Let’s try something.”

Ryan grinned.

The light that spread around from the tip of his sword began to fluctuate.

and at the same time.

anger.

Light swept the darkness.
