I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 33
#When he returned, the family was ruined (34)
The energy contained in the black magic that stretched like a whip was enormous. It was a power that only a warlock of at least the 5th rank or higher could show.
However, compared to the power contained within, the way the warlock handled power was very immature.
‘what?’
It felt like I was watching a clumsy knight who drank a lot of elixir and swaggered his shoulders.
After vibrating the essence of fire.
The great sword was swung between the joints of the whip. Even among the dark magic that contained enormous power, the link was weak.
The whip was instantly cut in half.
“What…what is it?”
Warlock Girsten showed a puzzled look.
After he began training in black magic in earnest. No one could easily receive his dark magic.
That was the same even for a 5-star skilled knight who used mana like water.
It’s a whip that has a track record of hunting down even skilled knights, but it gets cut off by a guy who seems to be using only a small amount of mana at best?
I was embarrassed.
Meanwhile, Ethan rushed towards the warlock.
“Pitch-black darkness, protect my body!”
Girsten hurriedly chanted. A round sphere appeared around his body.
It was a defensive magic that looked sturdy at first glance.
However, it was not without gaps.
‘It’s really clumsy.’
This guy only knows how to use force and doesn’t know how to handle it delicately. A guy like this is actually easier to deal with.
Heat began to rush towards the tip of the great sword.
Girsten saw that and laughed. The mana contained in the sword was truly insignificant.
Even if you play it well, it is at the level of a 2-star knight or not.
He focused his energy on the shield.
The direction from which the sword is stabbed. A great deal of dark magic gathered there.
‘That’s pathetic.’
If you focus your defense on one point, the defense in other areas will naturally become weaker.
It wasn’t difficult for Ethan to slightly change the direction of attack.
In an instant, he released the pill inside his body.
A lighter and faster body.
I twisted the blade using my body.
I swung my sword in the direction where the shield became vulnerable.
Huh!
The sword swung with an eerie sound and crushed the black sphere.
Chiiik!
Fire energy is not only the energy of fire that burns enemies, but also the power of purification that returns harmful things to nothingness.
Black magic was nothing more than amplifying the energy of mana by coloring it with death energy.
The dark magic power gradually began to melt away from the enormous fire gathered at one point.
“What…what!”
The warlock screamed.
Clearly, the dark magic he was pouring into was much more than that knight’s mana. But why on earth does the shield melt?
‘Help the master!’
He urgently began controlling the skeletons.
Click!
Click!
The skull gourds rushed at Ethan, holding pickaxes. Unfortunately, Ethan was the one who could easily destroy these low-level undead with just his body.
Bye!
With one punch, the skull was reduced to ashes.
Bye!
Bye!
Bye!
The number of skeletons quickly decreased. Girsten was astonished at that sight. The skeletons he raised were summoned using orcs, which were famous for their hard bones.
At best, it’s not the type of summon that can have its entire body shattered into dust with a single light punch.
“What kind of monster is this…!”
Soon after, the defense shield was breached.
“Kah…Kahahah!”
The warlock’s new form soared high into the sky.
Not only was my neck held tightly, but my entire body couldn’t move at all, as if it had been sealed.
Fear naturally filled Girsten’s eyes. Ethan, who was looking into the guy’s eyes, chuckled.
Because he was so weak compared to his power.
It’s so bad that it makes you wonder if he’s someone who spent his whole life reading magic books in his closet and is experiencing real combat for the first time.
All of the warlock’s blood vessels had already been sealed. Ethan, who easily subdued the guy, began to figure out what was inside his body.
Near the warlock’s heart, there was an area where energy was concentrated as if it were the inner core of a monster.
‘It’s clear.’
The way the Yongin people built up energy was very similar to this.
The only difference is that as the Yongin people accumulate energy like this, the heart itself becomes more and more special.
‘It was called Dragon Heart.’
Dragon Heart.
This term refers to the heart that contains the essence that an individual called the Yongin tribe has trained throughout their life. Aside from the fact that he built up his strength the way the Yongin people trained, there was something else unusual about it.
‘I mixed the human mana breathing method here.’
Humans and dragons.
What the warlock trained was a mana breathing technique that combined the strengths of the two races.
‘That’s fascinating.’
In my previous life, I had no interaction with the Yongin tribe.
For humans, the enemy that must be killed was the dragon race, and on the contrary, the dragon race was.
Because they possess so much power, they treat humans as a lower species and do not attempt to interact with them at all.
‘Of course, there were a few humans who were eaten by the dragon people.’
Those who were called traitors to humanity.
In the end, they too were devoured by some information and their lives were only prolonged for a short time.
At the last moment, it ended up in their mouths and was reduced to nothing more than a meal.
‘It was definitely like that.’
Something has changed a lot in this life.
That was the case with the mixed technology of the two races that was immediately revealed before our eyes.
Such a sophisticated blending of the two formats naturally required a very deep level of technological exchange.
Originally, the Dragon race had little substance that could be called technology.
As the past changed, their actions seemed to change as well.
Whatever it is, one thing is certain.
‘They both got along very well.’
The dragon race and humans began to coexist.
This was it.
Ethan looked at the warlock.
I was very curious about how on earth this guy was able to obtain this technology.
“Where did you learn that skill?”
“….”
Even though his throat was strangled, the warlock did not open his mouth. I immediately grabbed his finger and broke it.
Wow!
“Ugh!”
The warlock’s scream rang out along with an eerie sound.
“Do you know the Yongin tribe?”
“….”
The moment he spoke, his eyes began to shake violently. It was no different from admitting that you knew.
“If you keep your mouth shut, your body will break into pieces like this finger here.”
“Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu us us ushering in such an arrogant act… there is not much left… Hahaha…”
It was that very moment.
The energy that had been building up in his heart began to swell as if it would explode.
Just looking at the size of the power, it was so explosive that it easily exceeded the mana reserves of a 6-star knight.
Ethan wrinkled his face.
‘Self-destruction?’
All passages near the heart were blocked with mana. The explosion range has become much smaller than before.
However, he could not stop his heart from exploding.
Because the speed of self-destruction was too fast for that to happen.
puck!
In an instant, the guy’s heart exploded. The guy who was laughing and bleeding fell to the floor.
“Hehehe… the church… will last forever…”
The guy closed his eyes after spitting out the last word mixed with blood.
‘platform?’
Ethan tilted his head.
platform.
It’s a word I’ve heard before.
‘There were crazy people like that in my past life too.’
A group of psychopaths who were fascinated by the dragon clan’s enormous power and began to worship them directly.
To put it in one word, it was a kind of pseudo-religion.
A warlock who cries out for a religious order.
The missing records of the Barony.
Even the mana breathing method is a mixture of dragon and human techniques.
“It’s complicated.”
There were quite a lot of fragments of information obtained from this abandoned mine. He immediately began searching through the abandoned mine.
If this warlock had left any records, he might be able to find a clue about this incident.
But all that was in the mine was bone fragments and black metal that had been reduced to ash. Ethan looked at the metal in the cart.
It was enough to make a great sword.
‘Almost all the metal is canned.’
There was almost no metal left in the abandoned mine. This probably means that this warlock has been mining metal for a very long time.
The metal Neprion in the cart, which can be said to be the last remaining one in the abandoned mine.
He took out Neprion and put the metal in his bag.
The bag that ate the metal swelled up.
‘When I return to the Barony.’
First, I need to trace the missing records.
dukedom.
In that vast territory, the warlock would not be the only human who could be called a servant of the dragon clan.
‘Perhaps the dragon race already exists within the duchy.’
Among the dragon race, there were also individuals that could imitate human appearance.
So it wasn’t an entirely impossible story.
‘It’s going to be a lot busier from now on.’
Helmut turned a blind eye to a man who could be called a servant of the dragon race.
Depending on whether you did it because you didn’t know anything or if you knew it, your way of dealing with it will also vary.
After making the great sword.
It won’t be too late to think about future events later.
Ethan came out of the mineshaft.
* * *
“No more undead will be found in the mines from now on.”
“Thank you! Grand Duke!”
After coming down from Mt. Mitron.
I returned to the village and retrieved the horse I had entrusted to me. I left the small village amidst the hospitality of the village people.
Now that you have obtained the metal, it is time to smelt the sword.
‘Not even a decent blacksmith can do that.’
Blacksmiths in the baronies were immediately excluded from the candidate group.
There was no way he would be able to smelt a new metal with skills that were at best limited to steel.
Even if smelting is possible, it is obvious that the results will be crude.
‘A dwarf is perfect.’
A race that can smelt even new metals as if they were metals that were handled last night.
That was the dwarf.
‘There were dwarves living in the Pusikes Mountains.’
A place where I previously went to receive the blessing of fire. Dwarves were living there too.
One thing that concerns me is that they do not have very good feelings towards humans.
‘I guess we can resolve it if we go find it.’
Even if you go and think about it, it won’t be too late.
The horse’s head turned toward the Pushkes Mountains. After a week of travel, Ethan arrived at one of the places where dwarves were known to live.
Steel rock mountain.
It was one of the mountains in Pushkes.
After carefully searching the surroundings, I was able to find a passage leading underground.
‘Here it is.’
The entrance to the place where the underground race lives.
I went inside.
After entering the passageway that lasted for a while, I was able to find a place full of buildings.
It was clearly a building suitable for dwarves to live in.
However, there was no sign of popularity in the village.
‘There are no guards.’
The exterior walls were completely black, as if no repairs had been carried out at all.
When I saw the traces, it seemed like it had been gone for over ten years.
‘…what? ‘Have you changed your place of residence?’
In addition to this place, I know of several other places where dwarves live, but they are all located too far away.
‘We have to solve it here.’
It was when he tilted his head.
I felt like I was popular somewhere.
“Yes? human?”
When I turned around, I saw a stocky old man. It was a dwarf.
“Let me ask you something. “Didn’t dwarves originally live here?”
“It was like that in the past.”
“Have you by any chance immigrated? “I’m asking because I’m trying to entrust a production request, but the village is empty.”
“produce? Why are you looking for it here? “If you go to a human city, you’ll probably be able to find it easily, right?”
“…What do you mean?”
“What are you talking about! “Everyone left here to make money.”
Ethan tilted his head.
Dwarves are a closed race.
Moreover, in the past, humans used dwarves as slaves as soon as they discovered them, so they were one of the races that were very hostile to humans.
The reason Ethan knew the whereabouts of the dwarves was because of the dragon people who emerged from his previous life.
At that time, all races had no choice but to come together, and through the inevitable cooperative relationship, we became comrades risking our lives and were able to learn about the dwarves one by one.
Dwarves are famous for being a closed race. Are those dwarves living together with humans?
Ethan looked at the old dwarf.
“…Are there really dwarves in the city?”
“I heard it exists. “If I give you a lot of money, you’ll gladly take on the production request, right?”
Soon after, he rummaged around in his arms and handed me a business card.
[Greston Dwarf Association]
―Production requests are always welcome!
―Reasonable price, amazing quality!
―Produced by dwarves, of course!
“What do you mean by Greston? There’s a fairly large city of humans around here, right? If you go there, you will be able to meet him.”
“….”
“Oh! When you go there, be sure to tell them that this ‘Cheche Mora’ introduced you! Then, I also have to pay the introduction fee. You can do this much, right?”
“…I guess so.”
I felt like I needed to visit Greston.
