Regressing with the King’s Power - Chapter 453

Episode 453:

I became conscious.

And then I found out.

The fact that he is now in recovery.

I tried to open my eyes, but they were so heavy that I couldn’t open them.

‘Did it come over?’

After the quest’s time limit was over, I crossed the gate with Tolkien on my back.

I remembered it clearly up to that point.

I felt like I lost consciousness from the shock that hit me right away.

‘The King of the Underworld’s magic has become stronger.’

It was a movement from the upper world to the lower world.

Since Taehyeon was in a state of complete collapse immediately after arriving in the upper world, there cannot be no risk when returning to the lower world.

You can probably see the change only by opening the status window.

It seemed difficult to understand in the current situation where I couldn’t open my eyes or speak.

[You look frustrated.]

At that time, I heard the familiar voice in my head and remembered the owner’s name.

‘Elven.’

I was so exhausted that I couldn’t control my magic, but I felt reassured that she was nearby.

‘Did I come back properly?’

[okay. Since we are now in the spring water of healing, there is no need to overdo it.]

Spring water of healing.

Of course, mental and physical treatment.

An all-purpose healing center that can even restore a certain level of existence.

One thing that is unfortunate is that the amount is still limited and is only used to restore supply.

It seemed like it was put in right after Taehyun returned.

[Was the trip to Sanggye fun?]

‘It was to die for.’

I confessed my true feelings obediently.

Anyway, she can read Taehyun’s thoughts when she is near Shinsoo.

There was no benefit in showing off.

[Don’t worry. I have no intention of reading your memories. In the first place, Bonyo’s power was not mind control.]

‘Thank you for that.’

He expressed pure gratitude when he said that out of consideration for him, he would not carelessly read his thoughts.

[They brought an interesting dwarf from the upper world.]

And he’s a meister, not an ordinary dwarf.

The Elven let out a strange laugh.

‘dwarf. ‘Is Tolkien okay?’

Belatedly, he remembered the Underworld King’s spell that must have been applied to him.

The pressure was such that even Taehyun lost consciousness.

A man who lost both arms to Horus would have had a hard time fully enduring the shock.

[Don’t worry. In the first place, he was so downgraded that it was difficult to call him a meister. There is no way the magic of the underworld could be applied properly.]

That’s a good thing.

I was belatedly relieved by her words.

It felt like there was some sarcasm mixed in, but I didn’t care about it now.

[We’ll talk about it in detail when you come out. Recovery is the priority now.]

It won’t take long to recover.

He said not to think about anything now and focus on accepting the healing spring water.

The Elven’s voice disappeared without a moment to reply.

‘Anyway, it’s arbitrary.’

After my body fully recovered, I opened my eyes again.

It had been about a month since I returned to the lower world.

* * *

Rosaria was the first to notice that Taehyun had woken up.

[I’m sorry.]

She immediately apologized.

This is because he believes that the origin of this incident lies with him.

“It’s not for Rosaria to apologize.”

The problem is that it is Typhon’s fault who is even more persistent in trying to get back his old power.

Taehyun supported her.

[Knock.]

She touched her head with her tentacle, as if her head hurt just thinking about it.

Taehyun then talked about what happened while he was concentrating on recovery.

Taehyun couldn’t hide his surprise when he heard that a month had passed in Earth time.

“So much time has passed?”

[The powers of existence were entangled. I heard that he collided with the Absolute through a dwarf… but what on earth did he eat in the upper world to end up like that?]

‘Existence…!!’

At her words, Taehyun suddenly remembered the blue eyes he had feasted on in the world of images.

‘Horus’ blue eye.’

At the time, the situation was urgent and I didn’t have time to check, but I definitely felt an alien force stirring within my body.

Taehyun opened the status window.

Some pretty significant changes were noticed.

Strength: 700 Stamina: 700 Speed: 705 Magic power: 900 Spiritual power: 150 Charisma: 750

All stats 700.

Even though he couldn’t use his proper strength in the upper world and just rolled, his stats had increased significantly.

Is that all?

We looked at one skill that stood out to Taehyun.

‘It is the eye of the Absolute.’

Eyes of the Absolute (???) – Opens the eyes of the imperfect Absolute. Magic Power: 100

The skill that was supposed to open the ‘Elyos’ Eyes’ was changed to ‘Open the Eyes of the Imperfect Absolute’.

‘I’m still unable to fully handle it due to my lack of physical strength.’

[I wonder what you got from the upper world.]

Rosaria said this as if she had a general understanding of Taehyun’s situation.

“I agree.”

Taehyun tried using the skill without any hesitation.

Tiring.

[The skill Eye of the Absolute (???) has been activated.]

[The skill’s proficiency is insufficient.]

[An incomplete skill is activated.]

Woah.

Taehyun’s vision on one side became brighter for a moment as he waited for most of the foreign energy to escape.

On the surface, it didn’t seem any different from the ‘Eye of the Watcher’ when one of the blue eyes was opened.

Rosaria, who was watching, did not have a good expression.

“You saw Cheongan last time, right?”

She also confirmed it when she first used the ‘Eye of the Watcher’.

Taehyun responded by asking why he was surprised again.

The answer came from an unexpected place.

[Isn’t it because the blue eyes you opened are not ordinary eyes?]

Taehyun turned his head at the voice he heard in his head.

At some point, there was an Elven with a branch of the Divine Beast wrapped around his waist.

It seemed like he was always attached to the body of the divine beast.

[I heard it from a dwarf who fell short. Absolute being of the 10 heavenly realms. You met Horus, right?]

He nodded in response to the question, as if he had already figured out the general situation.

[It’s a miracle that he came back alive.]

‘Why do you have to do that?’

Unlike when I say focus on recovery.

She was cold now.

These are the Elven and Rosaria, about whom only limited information was received from Tolkien.

Just like ancient memories.

This is because most of the things experienced in the upper world are restricted from being revealed freely in the lower world.

If you are forced to look at that level of memory, it may have a permanent impact on the other person’s existence.

On the other hand, Rosaria and the Elven judged that Taehyeon, the key to the King of the Underworld, would be able to speak on his own.

Elven and Rosaria.

If both of you are willing, it’s not a problem to peek into defenseless memories.

Nevertheless, I was glad that they believed in me and waited for me.

‘There’s no need to deceive these guys.’

It is said that Tae-hyeon opened the perfect blue eye in the upper world and was able to control divine power.

He then revealed that he had joined forces with his doppelganger to feast on one of Horus’ eyes.

[On the first trip to the upper world, not only did they bring a meister from the dwarf tribe, but they also pulled out the eyes of the Absolute… It was more than expected.]

The Elven reacted as if he was dumbfounded.

[It’s still incomplete, but Ra’s eyes are clear.]

Rosaria responded as if she was worried.

The Elven’s reaction was not difficult to understand, but Rosaria’s reaction was unexpected.

The Elven answered the question.

[The look in your eyes that says you ate it. It belongs to the master of the 10 Heavenly Realms. Well, it seems like the owner of the 10 heavens has changed now… In any case, the power of existence contained in such a guy’s eyes can’t be light. I was wondering why it took so long at the healing spring, and I guess he was digesting its power.]

I didn’t deny it because I had just checked the status window.

He said that his physical abilities have increased significantly compared to before, so he feels like he can now have a decent battle with the Archduke even without skills.

[First of all, it would be best not to use that power as much as possible.]

“Why?”

[He was a guy that even the Grand Dukes couldn’t easily deal with. You can tell just by looking at the shaking existence of the contractor who used those eyes.]

The Elven affirmed and Rosaria continued.

[Don’t worry. Doesn’t someone like Jormungand also deal with blue eyes? A contracted person would not be eaten by just one eye.]

In the Lower World, the only one with perfect blue eyes is Lucifer, who was once a member of the Upper World, and Jormungand’s Odd Eye is also related to that of the Upper World.

‘Even so, Lucifer is Jormungandra…’

How did this guy who was born a monster come to obtain the Blue Eye?

I was curious, but Rosaria probably wouldn’t answer.

[Tsk. Blue eyes… I don’t like them either before or now.]

Rosaria said this after examining her blue eyes several times.

“At best, it’s just the eyes.”

[The person who walks the path of the King of the Lower World is the eye of the Upper World.] Let’s

just complain for a moment that it doesn’t suit us.

She was having a telephonic conversation with the Elven.

“Why are you leaving me out?”

Taehyun told him not to hide what secret he was talking about in front of him.

The Elven looked at Taehyun and Rosaria with a strange expression.

[Do you really have to do it?]

the elven asked.

[It will be much easier if you help us with the magical power of the Divine Beast.]

Rosaria said with a benevolent smile.

“What. “What?”

[Wasn’t Myeongsaek your first contractor? I’m just trying to give you a gift.]

“A gift?”

Without answering, Rosaria unleashed purple magic power.

Colorless magic bloomed from the body of the Elven who sighed.

“…?”

For a moment, Taehyun had doubts about the unexpected situation.

Suddenly, the branches of the divine tree wrapped around my body.

“uh?”

Tsuzzzzzzzz.

The magic power that had been filled with water was leaking out.

It wasn’t just magic that was missing.

The spiritual power, which was recording a value of 150, was also sucked away at once.

Even before I could express my admiration for Shinsoo’s enormous capacity.

Rosaria’s tentacles took the form of thorns.

“Rosaria. “Isn’t it?”

Taehyun flinched without realizing it because he had already done so much in the body of the great devil.

[Is there a method as good as this for destroying magical power?]

“So why all of a sudden…”

Before I could question it.

Phew!!

A sharp tentacle pierced my chest.

“…!!”

This is Taehyun, who has been touched by her tentacles countless times.

Most of it was related to recovery.

It was different now.

Kahak.

Taehyun vomited blood as the purple magic power ravaged his body.

It was colliding with the other Archduke’s magical powers residing in his body, as if he was forcing a reflux.

Even though I was proud that I had developed a tolerance for most pain, it was not something I could easily endure.

Every time that happened, the branch of the divine tree controlled by the Elven tightened its body.

That’s it.

thud. thud. thud. thud.

[contractor!! He woke up… Huh!!]

After hearing the news that Taehyun had woken up, Typhon came running and witnessed the current situation.

“T…Phone….”

Come and solve this for me.

Taehyun spoke with difficulty and made eye contact with him.

I’m sure the intention was conveyed properly.

[Hmm… Hmm… I’ll come back next time.]

Typhon cleared his throat and turned his body around.

It reminded me of the intense attack I received from Elven, Rosaria, and Gilper the other day.

‘You traitor.’

Taehyun looked at Typhon as he walked away with hateful eyes.

If I get out of here, I will definitely be held accountable for this incident.

[Ahahaha. Just thinking about it makes me happy.]

Rosaria burst into laughter after reading Taehyun’s thoughts.

“So… I have to tell you what… situation this is….”

Pupupupupuk.

With five additional tentacles.

Kahak.

Taehyun vomited blood once again.

The Elven also shook his head once again.

The change occurred suddenly.

Unlike when it collided with other magical powers.

The moment when colorless magic mixes with purple magic.

Tiring.

[Skill Dream King’s Eyes (???) has been registered.]

‘What?’

An unexpected message came to mind.
