Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 322
Episode 322
: This is when Igmun completely disappeared from the man’s sight.
Sigh. Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The chains that bound Rosaria were loosened.
When the chains were completely released, Rosaria’s ultra-fast regeneration occurred.
Quad deuk. Quad deuk.
With the man’s permission, the limb was instantly regenerated.
Let’s not say anything for a while.
It was only when Igmun’s presence was gone that the man looked at Rosaria.
[There are no eyes anymore.]
[….]
Rosaria had no reaction to the man’s words.
[How long are you going to pretend to be brainwashed?]
[….]
I hope Rosaria remains silent for a moment.
[Why… did you… save me…?]
She raised her head and made eye contact with the man.
It wasn’t the eyes that seemed to have lost their senses in order to exert mental control a moment ago.
From the moment the first mind control attack failed, the man entered his own world of images.
Lilith’s brainwashing was broken so easily.
I was shocked and shocked by that ridiculous power.
The reason Rosaria acted was to avoid being discovered by Igmun.
Lilith, the Queen of Dream Demons and Demon Seas.
She has lived for so long that there are rumors that she was a lover with the first Grand Duke Baal.
I’ve never even thought about trusting myself when I’m just a maid.
It is also true that the one who is following behind is Igmun.
As a result, the queen.
Lilith’s plan failed.
The power of mind control that strengthened Rosaria could not reach the man.
He was unable to cross the gate to the Earth where he was plotting with other archdukes.
Igmun, a close associate, also seemed to have been tricked by the man.
What I didn’t understand was the man’s attitude.
why.
[You didn’t kill me, right?]
When I first saw you in Lilith’s castle, and even now.
Even though the man had the power to easily tear apart a higher-ranking species, he somehow managed to control his power.
[I was looking for a guide who knew the deepest level well.]
The man said it as if it was no big deal.
How can you keep the highest species alive with just that?
[Me… How can you trust me…]
[They say the world of images doesn’t lie.]
Then the man pointed to his red eye.
The two eyes that were red just a moment ago had changed to blue.
Rosaria’s body shook slightly.
A huge power just by facing it.
This is because I felt the power of Lilith, which was like mental control.
[What is the answer?]
The man asked again, appreciating her surprised expression.
[I… will not betray my servant.]
Rosaria said, chewing it up with her teeth and spitting it out.
I failed in the mission given by Lilith.
Like Igmun, he is not one of Lilith’s favorite relatives.
How did you come back alive?
Why couldn’t I get over the gate?
Have you ever had an affair with a man?
You will rack your brains and invade the world of images, citing all kinds of reasons.
If I went back now, it was obvious that I would be tortured worse than death by Lilith.
Then the man opened his mouth again.
[What does it mean to be a species?]
[What…?]
[What does it mean to be the ruler of a species?]
A fundamental question followed from the man’s mouth.
[Whether you live or die is none of my business.]
The man frowned.
[It’s disgusting to see you give up without doing anything.]
[What do you know…!!]
This is the moment when Rosaria, in tears, is about to scream.
The man raised his hand to stop her from expressing her anger.
[In the past, there was a guy called Behemoth.]
As if a man was telling a story about the past.
It’s as if he doesn’t care whether she listens or not.
He brought up an ancient story that Rosaria didn’t know about.
It was about the origin of monsters and could be called a myth.
Why did the Abyss form and what is a species?
The man’s story asked her many questions.
And not for long.
Rosaria was called a traitor to the Nightmare tribe.
* * *
After obtaining a capable guide, the king proceeded to subdue the dream demons.
By the time we arrived at Lilith’s castle, a significant number of the highest species had already died.
Even if Lilith disposes of the man, it will be difficult for her to enjoy her previous power.
Several top species, led by Igmun, gathered in the main castle.
Lilith must have been planning to drain the man’s strength even a little.
But that was a mistake.
Igmun, who was in charge of the boundaries of the main castle, obediently cleared the way.
And when the man came back out to confront Lilith.
Igmun knelt down.
[King.]
The man nodded and Igmun swore obedience.
[You are the new Grand Duke.]
Lilith, the Queen of the Dream Demon and the Demon Sea.
It was the moment when the person who had reigned as the Grand Duke for a long time passed away and a new Grand Duke was born.
An entity that establishes and destroys the great prince who rules the Abyss.
Rosaria was finally able to realize what kind of person she was with.
And that’s it.
It was the beginning of a long journey.
* * *
Taehyun opened his eyes.
My head was pounding and my heart was pounding.
This may be because I was watching the living history of the Abyss just a little while ago.
Rosaria was in front of me.
It was not the helpless succubus of memories, nor was it the pitiful succubus who told the man to take his life.
She finished her journey with the king.
She became a complete queen and stood proudly in front of Taehyun.
[Did you enjoy time travel?]
Rosaria asked with a smile.
“That man….”
[Yes. He was the king.]
“….”
Taehyun swallowed silence.
king.
It was definitely different from when Taehyun first saw him.
Either way, it would be closer to the king in Noname’s memories.
‘If you look at the timing… does that overlap with the time when we completely moved from Earth to the Abyss?’
[Has the question been resolved?]
Taehyun nodded.
Why do other archdukes despise her so much?
Why does she swear so much loyalty to the king?
A question that I had not understood all along was resolved with a memory from before.
The reason I didn’t show any more memories.
‘I guess they think this is enough to resolve the current question.’
This is a journey before Rosaria becomes the Grand Duke.
Just showing that to the contractor would have been a miserable feeling.
[You must have been disappointed with your original wife.]
I could understand what Rosaria meant.
The reason she is not recognized by the grand dukes is because she was a high-ranking servant and rose to the position of grand duke through the power of the king.
That was why the proud princes did not acknowledge it, and it was no wonder that Taehyeon, who had now obtained the power of the highest species, did not acknowledge it.
Although Rosaria herself doesn’t think it’s a big deal.
“No way. “This has helped us trust each other a little more.”
[Hmm?]
Rosaria tilted her head as if she was surprised.
“Did you really think that something like that would change how I view you? “If it’s true, I’m disappointed.”
[….]
Rosaria’s expression was seen to harden slightly.
‘Rosaria has a cute corner.’
Rather, Taehyun rose from a porter in his past life to his current position.
‘What kind of background are you from?’
What is important is the present created by overcoming the past.
Rosaria and Taehyun.
I overcame past adversity to stand where I am now.
It was natural that trust would deepen through that alone.
[indeed. The woman saw the person properly.]
Cough.
Suddenly Rosaria started laughing as if she was satisfied.
Taehyun quietly watched the scene.
The reason there were tears in her eyes wasn’t just because she was laughing.
It was a while later that she stopped laughing.
[contractor. Now it is your turn to keep your promise.]
At the word promise, Taehyun remembered the origin of this matter.
[You can guess how Typhon was rescued.]
Shocked.
My body reacted without me knowing.
Rosaria continued quietly.
[However, prioritize your relationship with your wife over that guy. Can you promise me that much?]
“Yes. “We have a friendship.”
Taehyun smiled awkwardly and answered.
It seemed like I would have to avoid T-Phone for a while.
Her tentacles wiggled as if she was satisfied with Taehyun’s answer.
[So where is your next destination?] Red
eyes sparkled as he asked that question.
I’m looking forward to it.
The contractor’s next move is to destroy the bloody balance maintained by the Grand Dukes, which even he himself was unable to do.
Taehyun was lost in thought for a moment.
There was one reason for his recent unconventional move.
‘Leading the turf war to victory in Rosaria’s camp.’
What he meant by that was to form a minimum alliance with other archdukes, no matter the method.
That’s why the king chose himself as the key.
I thought I could get a clue about the future tribal war and meeting the king.
However, my thoughts changed through a memory from a while ago.
‘A turf war is not just about expanding one’s power.’
The king in Rosaria’s memories had a power that surpassed even that of the Grand Duke, even in the early days of his Abyss activities.
The king in Noname’s memories was already strong enough to have all the princes at his feet.
‘Nevertheless, the ethnic war could not be ended, so I had to choose the key.’
On the surface, the turf war between the archdukes is said to be a struggle for power.
At least it wasn’t just because of that reason that it came up as a quest for Taehyun, the key.
‘A slightly more fundamental reason.’
that.
‘The oath of summoning.’
‘Accepting the magic power of the Archdukes through the oath of summoning.’
Only then did I feel like I could see a little bit of the path I needed to take.
[You seem to have realized something.]
Rosaria said, looking at Taehyun who was lost in thought.
“okay. “Thanks to you.”
Taehyun calmly assessed the situation.
Among the princes, he made a pact of summoning with Rosaria Typhon Hazard.
The remaining Princes are Igmun Orgal Beelzebub Jormungand Lucifer.
Besides this, you never know what kind of monsters there might be.
The being of the highest species clearly possesses monstrous power.
It seems that the history of the Abyss is older than Taehyun thought.
‘It must be difficult to meet Orgal.’
He has already been attacked by Taehyun and Rosaria, so he is not in a position to communicate.
Typhon is attacking Orgal’s castle, so if you touch it, you could lose everything you’ve built so far.
‘Right now, there are limits to using hazards.’
I made a pact of summoning with her, but it didn’t look like she would help me right away.
Since he is a guy who works strictly for his family, it would be better to call him when a more suitable bait is prepared.
Rather, there was a high possibility that the rumor that a summons pact had been signed would be leaked to other grand dukes.
‘If you guess his actions based on his personality…’
He will try to create an advantage for the dragon race by moving the other princes who are watching.
[I guess my thoughts are getting longer.]
Around that time, Taehyun’s thoughts were about the only archduke he had not met.
It reached Lucifer who had signed a contract with Cody Cruz.
“Rosaria. “What kind of guy is Lucifer?”
Rosaria burst into laughter, as if she had never expected such a straightforward question to be asked.
We’ve already shared some secrets.
She didn’t withhold information like before.
[An archangel who was taken down from the upper world.]
He has the power of regeneration.
[He is the one who ascended to the throne of the Archduke even after being demoted from the Upper World.]
“That means…”
[Yes. If he regains his original power, he will definitely be the strongest among the Archdukes.]
