Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 429

Episode 429

“The ‘guest of honor’ will be arriving soon.”

Lewis nodded at his subordinate’s words and stood up.

If the subordinate had known the true identity of the ‘guest of honor’, he probably wouldn’t have been able to report it so calmly, but there was no need to tell him. Because his coming here now had to be confidential.

‘It’s been a while since I last saw you.’

Louis remembered the king’s face and sighed softly.

He didn’t tell anyone, but ever since he first saw the king, who was the Baron’s prince, he would sometimes have strange dreams.

– For Grandia!

– for!

A middle-aged man with a face full of scars screaming for his life.

Sometimes he slaughters knights and soldiers with the golden dragon symbol, and sometimes he is chased by them. In some parts of the dream, there is a king who is as old as himself.

I began to often have dreams that I couldn’t understand, but that clearly seemed like the story was continuing.

And that too whenever there is something to do with the king.

It was the same this time too.

– Please. For the liberation of Grandia.

– Please leave it to me.

When he was entrusted with something, the king nodded and walked away. And I was looking at that with a heavy heart.

– Is the captain really okay?

-Logan is a person who keeps his promises no matter what. So let’s believe it.

It was an extremely bizarre dream, but the sense of reality and emotions were so vivid that it could not be considered a dream.

How long has it been since I last felt such real emotions in a dream?

‘I guess it’s because my mind is complicated.’

The war was won, but the lord was seriously injured.

Thinking about the current situation where I could neither be completely happy nor sad, it was understandable that I would be disturbed enough to have a strange dream.

Lewis sighed for an unknown number of times and left the room.

Heehee!

“stop!”

“Please identify yourself!”

Soldiers who saw two horses galloping from the south blocked the road.

But then.

“Stand back. You are an honored guest. I will greet you personally.”

Suddenly, the soldiers were startled by a voice heard from behind and retreated.

It was a voice I couldn’t recognize. Because it was the voice of Louis Hyon, the deputy commander of McLane’s 2nd Corps and the actual commander of the operation.

And they soon encountered an even more surprising sight. Louis Hyon looked at the two strangers and bowed his head politely.

“Meet the distinguished guests.”

The other person even accepted the excessive courtesy as if it were natural.

“It’s been a while, Lord Louis.”

“Yes. It looks a little unfamiliar.”

Even the story that continued with a bitter smile was a flow that the soldiers could not understand.

They couldn’t help but stare fascinated at the back of Louis and the guests until they completely disappeared inside the fortress.

Jump and jump.

“How are you, Master?”

After entering the interior of the fortress, as soon as the people around him disappeared, the middle-aged man suddenly asked.

“It’s just as I reported. There is no recovery.”

“Hmm, I guess that’s true too.”

also?

“…Do you have any guesses?”

“No, not yet… I think I’ll have to see you in person to say for sure.”

Just those words alone made Lewis’ complexion brighten.

‘If His Majesty says so.’

I thought that he too could be fully revived.

Logan, on the other end, smiled bitterly as if that thought was too obvious.

“You have to see to know. Excessive expectations…”

But his words did not last until the end.

“Please, please, save your life, Your Majesty.”

your majesty.

Lewis, who even used a title that should not be heard around him right now, bowed his head to him again with earnest eyes.

Knowing the weight of his heart, Logan couldn’t bear to blame him.

“…If I could, of course I would. No matter what the cost.”

I could only say that and nod my head.

And with just that answer, it seemed as if the weight on Lewis’ heart was lifted.

“Yes, I believe it. He is a person who always keeps his promises no matter what happens.”

Lewis, who turned around with those words, certainly looked more energetic than before.

“hmm?”

So much so that he didn’t even realize that Logan was tilting his head while looking at his back.

‘What promise did I make to Lord Louis?’

There was a lot in my past life, but in my current life, I didn’t really have any contacts other than my teacher?

Seeing him puzzled, Eilen, who had also transformed, poked his side.

“Why are you doing this all of a sudden?”

Logan, who unconsciously frowned slightly at the voice of the transformed man, quickly shook his head and shook off his distracting thoughts.

“No, no. Let’s go.”

Why do I care about such trivial words in this situation?

‘Are you escaping reality because you are afraid that your teacher might not be able to wake up? ‘You’re ugly, Logan.’

Logan laughed at himself, threw away his idle thoughts, and quickly accelerated his steps.

And not long after, the group arrived in front of a door guarded by a man who could be described as gigantic.

“See you, Your Majesty.”

“Thank you for your hard work, Lord Luther.”

Looking at the giant who was bigger than him even when he knelt down, Logan lightly patted the man on the shoulder.

Ugh.

Soon, a light vibration occurred, and the figure of the brown-haired middle-aged man disappeared like an illusion, and Logan’s figure popped out.

The semi-grey hair was still there, but it felt like the color had come back. Compared to Eilen, who also showed his true self and appeared completely normal, we could see how serious Logan’s injuries were at first.

Therefore, it was not surprising that the giant’s eyes were slightly shaken when he saw that scene.

“…Are you feeling okay?”

“It’s probably better than Master. Please open the door, Lord Luther.”

“…Yes, I understand.”

Okay.

The door opened with Luther’s words. Since it was a fortress built from the beginning with only combat in mind, each of the doors was extremely heavy.

When the door opened, I saw a window with warm sunlight streaming in and a small bed next to it.

Bourdelle, who was looking out the window with a bow, fell to his knees on the spot the moment he saw Logan’s face.

“See you, Your Majesty.”

“Yeah. You’re having a hard time.”

Logan answered formally in a calm voice, and his gaze quickly shifted to the old man lying on the bed.

Very thin appearance. His face, which was seriously aged when he was in conflict with the previous king, looked even older now that he had reached a new level.

It was heartbreaking just to see the young man, who was over 70 years old and not suitable for his age, approaching that age, and even the owner was still unconscious.

“Master…”

I was just sorry and sorry again. I had always felt like I was in debt, but now I had no idea how to repay that debt.

“There has been no improvement since he collapsed. He can barely swallow rice and water…”

“I guess so.”

“…yes?”

“Haa…”

Bourdelle tilted his head at those words, as if he knew the details as soon as he saw them, but Logan didn’t have the presence of mind to answer.

‘No way…’

Luther, who came in next to him biting his lip, also added.

“The priests say that even though the physical treatment has already been completed, you still can’t come to your senses. They don’t know why…”

“Your soul has been injured.”

“yes?!”

Luther asked in a surprised voice, but Logan just bit his lip and was lost in thought.

Ever since I heard about Master’s condition, I had guessed that this might be the case. That’s why I ran here as soon as I was able to move my body.

‘I thought it was strange to hear that he overpowered three superhumans even though he was seriously injured, but he definitely looked beyond the wall.’

The problem is that it never worked out well for the teacher.

Perhaps, the teacher was able to achieve such a powerful feat because he had seen a portion of the soul’s power and forcibly used that power.

However, in order to hold on to a broken body and extract strength beyond its limit, the shock is bound to be extreme. In other words, the teacher’s current condition was not a physical wound, but a fainting spell caused by a blow that consumed his soul.

‘Damn it…’

I couldn’t help but curse.

However, as Logan looked at his teacher, he was soon able to straighten his frown a little. Fortunately, I realized that his soul was not as severely damaged as Clayton’s.

‘Damage rate 10%. ‘If this is enough…’

Of course, once a soul is damaged, it cannot be restored. If it is true that Gibrik Cassel has split his soul and stored it in his relics, there may be a way to control his soul after he reaches the level of a godman. However, according to what he knew now, that was the accepted opinion.

Also, even though it is 10%, if 10% of the nervous system disappears, it is normal for the average person to not be able to move their body.

And 10% of the soul had an even greater weight.

So much so that it seemed natural that the teacher would not wake up until now.

But in other words, it is only 10%.

If there is a stimulus that can make up for that sense of loss, and if the person in question already knows how to handle that force, wouldn’t they be able to move again the moment they regain consciousness?

Logan focused his energy with that expectation.

Ugh.

“Logan!”

Eilen was startled by the golden force that surged through his entire body for an instant and grabbed his arm. Because the cracks in Logan’s force core were still not healed.

No matter how serious the swordsman’s wounds were, her husband was more important to her.

But Logan smiled bitterly and pushed away his wife’s hand.

“Oh, it’s okay. I’m not trying to use up the Force.”

“yes?”

“I’m just trying to stimulate your spirit. Well, to put it simply, wouldn’t it be similar to waking up someone who has fainted by stimulating their heart?”

It was a completely unconvincing sound, but Eilen had no choice but to take his hand away with a shocked expression on his face.

Looking at that expression, Logan smiled bitterly.

‘For now.’

What’s the problem with pushing a little harder as long as I can get my teacher back up again?

Thinking that his wife would be in trouble if she found out, Logan focused his mind again on his soul.

As I said before, there was no need for the Force. The only goal is to stimulate the soul that fainted due to extreme shock and wake it up again.

An ordinary person would faint again immediately, but if Master had truly been able to control the power of his soul, it would be a different story.

– Master!

Wooooow.

An inaudible soul wave spread around the area, stimulating the soul of the stunned swordsman.

– Master, wake up!

His soul, which had not responded at all at first, began to vibrate little by little.

– Master!

However, the vibrating feeling continued and no further changes were felt.

‘It doesn’t work either.’

Logan bit his lip in despair.

Should I give up on Master like this?

‘I haven’t done anything for you.’

I always forced sacrifices.

– Isn’t McLane a territory in the southwest? What happened to the son there?

From the moment of first meeting.

– I want you to become a pillar of this country.

Past the time when I began receiving teachings in earnest.

– You don’t want to be king?

Until the time of conflict with the previous king.

He abandoned his teacher’s expectations and pursued only the safety of his family and himself.

Nevertheless, the teacher.

– New Felix Esperanza. I swear allegiance to the monarch of my new kingdom.

In the name of building a new kingdom, he endured everything and endured stigma to support himself.

This is the result? Is this really the end?

“No… no. I can’t let you go like this!”

The atmosphere in the room became even more gloomy due to Logan’s urgent shout.

But Logan didn’t even notice that and just bit his lip until it bled.

‘You must receive compensation.’

You must enjoy your life in the peaceful country you created.

You should sleep comfortably while being praised.

‘Not like this.’

never!

Logan erased his hesitation until the very end.

and.

Wooooow.

‘Off.’

I started to squeeze my own soul.

10% of your soul is damaged?

Then I will fill you with my soul.

Logan’s spiritual power flowed into the swordsman in an infinitely emotional flow that was never rational. Once damaged, the source of the soul, which cannot be restored, began to pour out its power to others.

Soon, an enchanting golden light filled the room.

It was some time later that signs of change appeared in the eyes of those who were staring blankly at the scene.
