Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 423

Episode 423: Many stories poured out to Logan, such as holding a victory ceremony at Grand and making it a victory anniversary.

But he dismissed all the suggestions with just one word.

“As we don’t know yet, all corps will remain on standby as is. So that we can respond proactively according to future changes in the situation.”

It was a remark that had in mind the second invasion of the empire due to changes in circumstances and McLane’s conquest of the empire.

Of course, I thought there might be some people who objected, but surprisingly, there wasn’t a single person like that. Of course, countless amounts of money are spent on deploying the corps and vigilantes that maintain the wartime situation, but even Dwayne Pilsner did not object.

rather.

[Then, let’s have a victory party at each location!]

No matter how many times Logan dug his ear and asked again, Dwayne repeated the same thing.

‘What’s wrong with this person?’

In the end, after confirming that the imperial army had gone more than three days away, a victory party was held at Kyle Castle.

visor!

“Glory to the unquenchable flame!”

“Long live McLane!”

“hurray!”

Noisy atmosphere.

The faces of the attendees were filled with endless excitement.

Even Logan smiled and accepted the greeting, and the only person whose expression was not bright approached him.

“Oh, Lord Heyman. Thank you so much for your help in the last battle….”

“Your Majesty, I have a favor to ask you.”

Heyman, no, the new sword Harmon Killerbrew bowed his head in an extremely heavy tone.

The story that followed was very shocking.

* * *

“…God told me to kill myself? Am I the incarnation of Gibrik Cassel?”

There is a level of absurdity.

Logan burst into laughter at the sudden mythical story.

Harmon bit his lip. I worked hard to create a private table, but it was difficult to look like I was just talking nonsense.

“I know it’s hard to believe, but…”

“No, no, just a moment…”

Logan cut off Harmon’s words and was lost in thought for a moment.

I want to dismiss it as nonsense, but the person who said that is Shingeom. There was even a time when he almost lost his body to the spirit of his ancestor, Zibrik Cassel.

Considering the speaker’s identity and own experience, there was a high possibility that this nonsense was true.

‘Damn it!’

What I thought was Victor’s illusion was not an illusion.

Logan asked again, pressing his temples, which suddenly began to tingle.

“…Did you say that I was destined to become the incarnation of Gibrik Cassel?”

It seemed like they believed in a story that no one would think made sense. Harmon’s face brightened slightly.

“Yes. But there is a high possibility that the saintess is also controlled by the spirit of God. Perhaps these damned holy relics are the medium.”

Ugh.

Harmon looked at Richentia, who still could not get it off his neck, with disgust.

It was clearly revealed that Harmon, who had lived his entire life as a faithful believer, had completely turned his mind to the opposite direction.

Just from his reaction, you could tell how terrible the experience of almost having his soul eaten was for him.

and.

– He asked me to think of him as an enemy because if I don’t answer that question properly, I will no longer be myself.

Also, what Victor said was true.

Logan bit his lip and asked what bothered him.

“Did you say anything else? Something like that Zibrik Cassel’s soul disappeared or something.”

“…All I could say was that I would be resurrected through you. Oh, and that when the Great Demon Demon Saint was resurrected, he would wipe out all faith in this land.”

“…okay.”

“Is there anything I should know?”

Harmon, who sensed something from Logan’s words, asked back, but did not receive an answer right away.

‘Get rid of faith…’

Logan, who knew the power of desire and its value at least roughly, seemed to understand why the gods would make such an unreasonable move.

‘The Nine Great Gods are merely higher-dimensional beings who require the power of faith and are not true gods.’

The memory of Gibrik Cassel’s spirit touched my heart again, and the faint remnants of faith in my heart were shattered. At the same time, Zibrik’s soul, which disappeared along with the holy sword Vanitas, came to mind.

– What kind of people can get their hands on my work…

– I will never give up like this…

‘…I didn’t think that would really be the end.’

Logan chewed his lips again.

Rather than assuming that the gods did not know that he had extinguished Zibrik’s soul, it was more convincing that the guy’s soul remained. Excluding the holy sword, there were two more relics of the magic saint I saw in my past life.

So does that mean there are two more souls of Zibrik?

‘You can keep your ego even if you split your soul like that?’

Since he had full control over the power of the soul, he knew full well how senseless that was.

However, considering what Harmon said and Zibrick’s last words, that absurd inference seemed to be true.

‘Because he’s a rookie and a rookie.’

The image of the Almighty wielding the magic of the 9 classes of rookies that Zibrik had shown in his life passed through my mind.

These people tear down mountains with a single wave of their hands and rebuild them with a single wave of their hand.

By modern standards, beings who can use the power of the Light of Destruction Extinction magic as if they were breathing, created by the Emperor, the Great Mage, using numerous magic stones and artifacts.

Even if the images in those memories were only half true, they were monsters that would make the existence of an army or troops meaningless. It’s not logical, but I think it would be understandable if such a monster were to split its soul into several pieces.

The only problem is that nine of them, the most outstanding, ascended to heaven, became gods, and are now trying to kill him. By their own ridiculous standards.

The good news among the misfortunes is that they cannot take action themselves.

According to Zibrik’s memory, the direction in which they, who have already become beings of a higher dimension, can directly influence this world is through divine power or….

“…Let me ask you one question. Lord Harman, how much do you know about apostles?”

“yes?”

Harmon’s expression hardened at that sudden question.

But the answer came naturally.

“A saint who received the grace of the gods was able to perform miracles by representing their will…”

Harman, who was reciting the knowledge he had been taught since childhood, seemed to suddenly realize something and stopped speaking before asking Logan.

“…Are you saying that the result of this soul-consuming phenomenon is an apostle?!”

“As far as I know, yes.”

Logan, who had expected to be asked questions such as “How do you know that?” was very nervous, but then he said something unexpected.

“No, then. All of the apostles recorded in the history of the church…”

Could it be because the distrust that had already been planted in his heart was deeply rooted?

Seeing Harmon take his words literally, Logan also lost his hesitation.

“Just as you almost obtained the Holy Relic and became an Apostle, is it possible for others to do the same?”

This is a story that would be reviled as blasphemous even by priests, or even by continental people with strong religious beliefs.

However, Harman was lost in thought with a stern expression on his face, and then cautiously opened his mouth.

“…I think it’s possible. If it’s the interaction between holy relics and divine power, high-level high-ranking priests will be able to do it…. It will probably take some time, though.”

“Then the saint could use the holy relics to increase the number of apostles. Huh…”

My head hurt.

I don’t know what the apostle’s fighting power is.

However, Gibrik Cassel, who wanted to become a god from the level of a godman, was thwarted by the nine apostles. And even if the story of the apostles, who are said to be born once every hundreds of years as a legend in folklore, is only half true, it would be a very powerful disaster.

It seemed truly burdensome to deal with them in a situation where the empire’s problems had not yet been completely resolved.

“Ha…”

Logan, who was sighing deeply while washing his face, suddenly thought of a plausible solution.

“Ah! Can I tell the gods that I once defeated the spirit of Zibrik Cassel? That I will be able to in the future…”

Harman immediately shook his head at those expectant words.

“…I won’t believe it. If I had believed in the power or words of humans, they wouldn’t have tried to encroach on my soul. I would have left the extermination of you to my will.”

Harmon’s face was hard as he answered like that. The priest, whose faith had been denied by its roots, was now filled with distrust.

“You are a priest who does not believe in God… Then what on earth are you trying to ask of me? Can’t you just leave the temple?”

“Even if the gods are no longer gods, there are people who believe in them and follow them to maintain peace. If my ominous premonition is correct, the gods will not hesitate to make any sacrifice to deal with you and the Kassel Tower. Regardless of the will of the parties involved, yo. this.”

In Logan’s opinion, it seemed like it could be possible.

And if that direction is towards themselves and the kingdom, they will probably have to face the empire as well as the Holy Kingdom as their enemy.

Harmon seemed to think the same thing.

“If it is reported that I have failed, the Holy Kingdom may immediately declare war.”

“…I guess so.”

“So before that, we must drive out the incarnation of the saint, or Amunda, from the center of the cult.”

A declaration that the sword of the Holy Kingdom will hold its sword upside down.

But Logan also understood that it was best for his situation. Plus, I felt like I knew what he was asking.

“…Are you asking for help in killing the saint?”

“I know there is a connection, but once the soul is completely consumed, there is no turning back. Your Majesty should know better now.”

Harmon’s clear eyes looked directly at Logan.

Logan could only nod his head at those words.

‘The wounds engraved in the essence of existence, the soul, cannot be undone.’

That’s why I couldn’t even think of the possibility that Gibrik Cassel had split the soul into three.

Is that possible if I reach the level of a rookie?

Logan thought of Clayton, who had not yet woken up, and sighed again.

Perhaps because he thought that was a rejection, Harmon hurriedly spoke again.

“One or two superhumans are enough. No, just one superhuman to assist me is enough. As you may be feeling, my condition is not that good…” “

…Currently, the superhumans of our kingdom are receiving global attention. “I can’t move hastily. I’ve faked an injury before and tried to move, but I’m not really in good condition now, so it’s going to be difficult.”

Only you can change the color of your auror. However, he was currently cautious about using the Force, let alone being an Auror.

However, Harmon added his words in a cautious tone.

“…Is there a need to fake an injury? From what I heard, there are several superhumans who are said to have been seriously injured.”

“That’s actually… ah!”

Logan, who first thought of his teacher and frowned, soon exclaimed.

“Yes. Sir Viktor, that friend could have already robbed himself. Please let him go.”

“…It’s quite possible. But I can’t guarantee whether Victor will accept it. As you know, he has a close relationship with the saint.”

In fact, it wasn’t just a simple friendship. For Logan, who had a vague sense that Viktor had feelings for Ilya that went beyond respect, Harman’s words could not help but be embarrassing.

However, Harmon’s next words were quite persuasive.

“It’s not about killing the saint, it’s about avenging the saint who has already died. Sir Victor will understand.”

“That could be possible. Okay, let’s ask the guy’s doctor.”

As Logan nodded, Harmon carefully added a word.

“And I’m sorry, but I have another favor to ask of you.”

“hmm?”

“First of all, the saint or apostle needs to take some time before making a drastic choice.”

“I guess so. So how can I help you?”

“I wish your Majesty… would die.”

That night, Logan’s expression changed subtly.

A superhuman suddenly disappeared from Kyle Castle, and at the same time, a huge rumor hit the world.

Logan McLane, King of McLane, was ambushed.

Serious and life-threatening injuries.

The attacker is Heyman, an unidentified superman.
