Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 417

Episode 417 ‘These guys, something is strange.’

They gave me a strange feeling from the first time I saw them. It feels unnatural, as if the soul was forced into a shell made to imitate a human.

Even from the moment they spewed out their aura, it was clearly visible that their souls were shaking and shrinking little by little.

Was it possible to ‘consume’ one’s soul in that way?

It was both interesting and creepy, but it didn’t actually feel that dangerous. Because they seemed like people who would die on their own if they just endured.

That’s why Logan wasn’t too embarrassed when fifteen of them, believed to be mid-level Auror users, surrounded him.

However, their attack was unique from the start.

Those guys who seemed to rush in like crazy, swinging swords loaded with dark red auras. The five in front of them stopped in their tracks and suddenly pointed their swords at him.

Ugh.

‘hmm?’

For a moment, Logan was taken aback by the unexpected movement.

The aura on the sword took the form of a faint haze, then erupted like a skein of thread, entangling his entire body.

Movement like magic, not auror.

At the same time, dark red auras stretched out in a straight line from the other ten swords that formed the encirclement.

‘under!?’

There was no spirit or signal.

Nevertheless, Logan’s eyes widened slightly at the sight of him moving like one person.

But….

whip!

bang!

The dark red aurors pouring in from all directions could not penetrate the golden shield that covered Logan’s whole body.

Even the black haze-like restraints and the dark red auror blade that seemed to maximize killing power were of no use. This was because the whipblade, which had become more powerful these days, completely dominated the space of about 20 meters in all directions.

The movement, twisting like a snake in the air, could not be clearly seen, and it seemed as if golden lightning was striking around Logan and deflecting the enemy’s barrage.

‘this…?’

However, regardless of the power of the attack, the movements of the black knights were an eyesore to Logan.

‘Swordsman’s swordsmanship?’

The basic swordsmanship of the empire’s strongest warrior, which I had experienced not long ago, was perfectly integrated into the swords of the black knights.

However, there was definitely something strange.

‘Is it not applicable?’

chuck.

The angle from the step down to the arm extension angle was perfect. The dark red aura emanating from the bending sword was definitely powerful.

Perfect swordsmanship with no wasted movements.

But that was it.

Slurp.

Chachaechaechaeng!

The golden whip-like whip blade freely bent and deflected sword strikes coming from all directions.

But after that, when Logan watched the guys without intentionally counterattacking, the guys who had been pushed away rushed in again and launched the same attack as before.

The same goes for those who try to bind themselves using methods that are unknown whether they are magic or aurors.

These black knights continued to pressure Logan, emitting a haze like dark red strings, as if it were their greatest task. They seemed completely unaware that their attacks had no effect on Logan.

‘In the same situation, only the same method is used? ‘Is it a doll?’

Of course, even if it were to this extent, the minions would not be able to resist even once and would die instantly.

In any case, I had to think of this as a battle doll, not a person.

‘It’s a weapon that imitates a superhuman. But with this level of combat power and time limit… Is this really the Empire’s secret weapon?’

I looked around to see if they could be captured in huge numbers, but I couldn’t see any more knights in black armor or dark red aurors.

I really thought it would be a relief if this was all.

‘Let’s get this over with.’

The passing team, who used the same sword skills as one, was clearly strong, but there was nothing they couldn’t break if they overexerted themselves a little. If they were just real dolls that couldn’t do anything at all, they might not get hurt at all.

Logan, confident that he had obtained all the information about them, changed his stance from defensive to defensive.

Pabababak.

Kwakwakwak!

The moment the Whip Blade, which had been deflecting the attack while creating a golden shield and lightning in the air, disappeared, the dark red Auror Blades pierced Logan’s body in the middle.

It was then that the black knights stopped moving for a moment as they watched Logan’s body disappear in a blur.

“As expected…”

Sgak.

With a sneer, the heads of two black knights and one arm fell. It was a disaster that suddenly happened to those who tried to restrict their movements by strangely transforming their aurors.

but.

“back!”

These guys just point to the enemy’s location without screaming.

It was surprising how the other three reacted in an instant while the two’s heads fell, but that was all.

“…Are they really dolls?”

The sight of him aiming his sword again without any concern for his colleague’s death seemed bizarre at first glance, but Logan was no longer nervous at all. Those who can play around with just the remnants of ghostly shadows won’t be able to do any harm to him.

But at that moment, the black knights’ eyes also changed completely.

“Even at fifteen.”

“swarm.”

“Finish.”

At the same time, Logan sensed that their souls were rapidly decreasing. On the other hand, their energy begins to explode.

Ugh.

The dark red energy that emanated from the remaining thirteen bodies, as if they had given up on direct attack, immediately put pressure on Logan’s whole body. It was a net of aura so dense that it was difficult to cut it easily even with the flashing whip blade of the sword being swung.

‘Write!’

This is the moment when Logan’s expression frowns slightly.

[Self-destruction. Be careful.]

A familiar voice he heard recently entered his mind.

‘Harman?’

The question of how he sent the message from so far away quickly disappeared.

Logan recalled a memory from his past that he had buried for a while.

The appearance of ghosts who did not hesitate to commit suicide the moment death approached.

Those guys were definitely a threat back then.

But the person I was then and the person I am now are completely different.

‘That’s all….’

Even considering the difference in personnel, he couldn’t help himself.

I think so.

[Me too. I almost died.]

Logan’s complexion hardened at Harmon’s message that followed.

And at that moment, I noticed the black knights’ armor bulging greatly. It also keeps the restraints in that state and slowly rushes toward you.

‘Tch!’

At the same time, a golden glow erupted from Logan’s body, and dark red light and golden light mixed for an instant.

– Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

A huge explosion followed a beat after the explosion and caught the attention of everyone on the battlefield. Even the Imperial and McLane forces, who were skirmishing on the southern and northern walls rather than the western wall, turned around for a moment.

Those near the epicenter could not even scream and were torn apart by the shock wave, and soon the middle of the vast western wall collapsed with a rumbling sound.

“Aaaah!”

“The walls are falling!”

“Avoid blood!”

Because the center was blown up, the V-shaped wall collapsed, creating an entrance into the castle.

It was a disaster for McLane’s army and an opportunity for the Imperial army.

The moment when the joys and sorrows of both sides were mixed.

“Where was His Majesty…!?”

The complexions of most of the McLane troops who were sighing in relief on the left and right sides of the castle wall that did not collapse at the astonished cry of one McLane army knight turned pale.

However, a golden auspicious ray of light soon rose from the place where the castle wall collapsed.

‘Damn it.’

Logan spread his aura and instantly blew away the rising dust and debris.

The force core, which was trembling as if squeezing out the remaining power from the force heart that was draining away like an ebb, was constantly humming as if to protest that power should not be wasted like that.

‘It’s over when morale drops.’

For Logan, it was a very intentional performance.

Fortunately, the intention seemed to have worked as thunderous shouts erupted from the castle walls.

“Wow!”

“Your Majesty is alive and well!”

At the same time, a number of knights who had fallen a short distance away from the epicenter of the explosion were seen staggering to their feet.

There were already countless corpses of vigilantes and soldiers whose forms were difficult to recognize scattered around the area, but the McLane army’s morale was restored just by the fact that Logan was fine.

Of course, the parties’ thoughts were slightly different.

‘If the timing had been a little off, I really could have died…’

For a moment, goosebumps appeared, and Logan trembled and gritted his teeth.

If his skills hadn’t improved quickly recently and he couldn’t use the power of space charm with his whole body, he could have really died here.

And above all.

‘Harman.’

If it weren’t for his voice, I wouldn’t have been able to guess the level of self-destruction of the ghost and use the space charm.

‘As expected, Victor’s worries were excessive.’

Logan glanced at the wall to the right where Harmon would be, then turned his gaze forward again. Through the dust he had swept away, he could see the imperial soldiers with their sinister eyes shining.

“It’s the enemy commander!”

“Kill it!”

“The wall has collapsed!”

“Charge!”

Shouts coming out without any hesitation.

Taking advantage of the moment when McLane’s bombing stopped due to the disaster of the castle wall collapsing, the imperial army began to race toward the gap in the collapsed wall.

In front of them, Logan faced them with unwavering gaze and raised his sword high.

“Knights, get into formation! I will take the lead!”

Golden light rising into the air.

The light once again attracted the attention of McLane’s troops.

Unlike ordinary soldiers, the knights who survived the fall took their positions behind Logan, even though they were staggering.

“The Empire won’t even be able to take a single step into the castle! Stop them with all your might!”

“yes!”

The knights responded vigorously.

Tens of thousands of enemy troops pouring in.

All that stood in their way were about 100 knights, including Logan.

Although one-third of the upper castle wall collapsed, the V-shaped cracked end was only about the width of the castle gate, so it looked as if a huge amount of sea water was pouring in through a hole in the embankment.

but.

– We have His Majesty Logan.

– The best sword of the continent.

– McLane’s Sun.

The knights’ gaze was fixed on the leader.

Moreover, even if the castle wall collapsed, the location where they stood was within the range of the great magic formation. The effect of the magic circle, which adds vitality to the body, was helping the shocked knights quickly recover their condition.

Additionally, other means existed.

Although they were shocked by the fall, all of McLane’s knights, regardless of their level, possessed the Zercle artifacts. The artifacts each person activated covered their bodies and boosted their confidence a little.

The continent’s strongest monarch and weakening magic circle stand at the forefront. And artifacts.

– You can block it!

Reckless confidence began to fill the hearts of the knights.

But at that moment.

Among the advancing enemies, people wearing robes of various colors were seen.

“Speed up!”

“Armor!”

“Sharpness!”

Wooooow.

Like a flood of blue light.

The magic they poured out poured into the front lines of the imperial army.

The charging speed became even faster, earth mana was added to the armor to increase defense, and each weapon began to glow white.

That would be more than enough to offset the effects of artifacts and weakening magic circles.

The confident faces of the MacLine knights darkened slightly.

In front of them, the magicians of the empire were running past the knights.

“I will avenge your Excellency the Sword Spirit!”

A handsome, grizzled blonde mage wearing a silver robe.

The magic pouring out of his hand quickly becomes a cold wind that tightens all around Logan.

“I will definitely crush you this time!”

A beauty with silver hair and emerald eyes poured out pure white magical power that froze the entire front, as if trying to avenge her previous shame.

“Just leave it like that!”

A fat middle-aged woman glides across the ground and shakes the ground beneath Logan’s feet as harshly as her foul mouth, restraining him.

“It’s over!”

A middle-aged woman with a vicious look poured a ton of water out of the air, adding physical force to the force of the cold wind and the magic power of the glacier.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

The combined magic of the four best magicians in the empire was truly perfect. If it weren’t for Heyman, an unidentified silver-haired mercenary and a young blond Auror user jumping out of the air behind him.

“Hwaap!”

“Where!”

The moment when the silver and red auras broke the joint magic from above.

bang!

Logan destroyed the earthquake simply by slamming his sword into the ground.

“Oops!”

Then, ignoring the fat mage who was coughing up blood, he raised his sword into the air.

Soon, a golden aura resembling sunlight spread brilliantly among the silver and red auras that disturbed the magical harmony of the cold wind and glacial tsunami.

Ugh.

Quaaaaaaaaaaa!

The mages frowned as their joint magic broke and bounced away.

“No way!”

Led by the mage of the cold wind who shouted, they once again created their own magic and began to pressure Logan.

White and blue light mixed dizzyingly before Logan’s eyes, and powerful magic poured out to cover the entire area once again. And now, the great army of the empire that had been pushing behind them was approaching right in front of them.

Right then.

‘now.’

Logan pulled out the last move he had been saving.

Ugh.

The eight force cores in his heart vibrated and spewed out another core, and soon the number of force cores increased to nine, orbiting in unison, amplifying the force that had hit the floor to its maximum again.

The highly exalted spirit looked down on the battlefield with a higher status than ever before.

‘…can do.’

The moment when Logan is inspired by a sense of omnipotence, as if he can do anything.

Flash!

A beam of light brightly illuminated the battlefield, rising from the Imperial Army headquarters. It was a huge and majestic blue light, like a pillar supporting the sky.
