Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 457
Episode 457
“Your Majesty, we’re in big trouble!”
Damian’s heart sank at that one word.
Why is this ominous premonition so accurate?
Moreover, the person who entered the office screaming like that was Victoria, who is said to be the youngest mage in history.
What on earth is going on?
“What is it?!”
When Damian got up from Logan’s seat, Victoria’s eyes widened in surprise.
“What about Your Majesty!? It’s such a big deal….”
“Whatever it is, I can’t see Your Majesty right now. Please tell me!”
This was a clever measure taken because I couldn’t find even a half-baked double.
I felt sad again that I had no choice but to use the name of training at the King’s closed house ahead of the war.
But Victoria’s attitude was strong.
“No! I don’t mean to disrespect Damian, but you have to tell your majesty directly about this!”
Of course, Damian couldn’t back down either.
“That is difficult. Your Majesty said that under no circumstances should you seek him out until the war!”
A word with great emphasis. I was desperately hoping to understand the inner meaning, but Victoria’s expression was strange.
“Under no circumstances…?”
“Yes, that’s right. Never! You said never to look for it.”
“Absolutely… I see. It
couldn’t be there…” He easily agrees with what he says can only be considered far-fetched.
‘What did I do wrong?’
I felt my already depressed heart sink even further, but Victoria, whose expression suddenly calmed down, continued speaking.
“Then please convey the message to Your Majesty. The spell I placed on ‘Kyle Castle’ has been broken.”
“…Magic? Yes… I understand.”
What does it mean?
‘Please, it shouldn’t be a big deal.’
The moment Damian bit his lip without realizing it, Victoria suddenly asked.
“By the way, Your Majesty, when did you start training?”
“Ha, it’s been about a week.”
“Without any public announcement?”
“Yes. You only told me.”
I continue to answer questions calmly.
“I see. I understand.”
As Victoria nodded calmly, Damian realized that a secret had been revealed.
His face hardened for a moment, but Victoria didn’t care and spoke in a voice that sounded cold.
“Your Majesty is busy, so I will try to find a way. I can’t leave you like this, Master.”
Damian froze, unable to respond to those declaration-like words.
‘What the hell is going on? What magic? I need to explain that first…’.
While I was just groaning inside, I heard a voice from outside my office that made my heart stop again.
– Your Majesty! We’re in big trouble!
The driver who burst in without permission opened the door and screamed.
“The previous pope who went missing from Kyle Castle has appeared!”
“what!?”
Damien literally jumped up.
The worst situation I could have ever imagined.
I was preparing for attacks coming from in front, but it felt like a knife came from behind.
Victoria next to him seemed overly surprised, but she was too shocked to care.
“What do you mean? Previous pope? Why is a saint here?!”
For a moment, my head was spinning and my vision became dizzy.
I felt like I just wanted to pass out, but I couldn’t.
‘It’s definitely that guy. What did that guy do again?’
My stomach was boiling.
The gentleman called the monarch is always plotting something, but he never says anything.
And then, every time it disappears, a huge accident occurs.
Perhaps it was a saint this time.
It was a level of reasoning that went beyond a leap of logic and identified and identified the culprit, but that groundless confidence had already captured his reason.
“Why on earth again…!”
I was literally in awe, but there was nothing I could do.
Because the reckless actions of that man have led to the development of MacLine.
‘The situation has already happened. Can not help it.’
Whoa.
Damian tried to control his mind, hoping that there would be no more surprises.
However, it wasn’t as easy as I thought.
“Wait a minute. A saint appeared? What is her condition?”
Victoria peppers the article with questions.
The puzzled knight looked at her and himself alternately, then spewed out words again like a yell.
“That’s not the important thing. The elites of the temples on the eastern continent are all flocking to Kyle Castle! They’re ready to start a war! We need to tell His Majesty as soon as possible!”
“Ah…”
In this situation, even Seongguk…
seemed like he was going crazy.
Damien’s face turned from pale to blue due to the stress that rose to its extreme in an instant.
Even that wasn’t the end.
bang!
“Your Majesty!!”
Another knight jumped in with an urgent voice.
“Again!? Again! What!?”
“What about your Majesty!?”
“Tell me! Now!”
My heart felt like it was sinking and was now throbbing. It wouldn’t be surprising if I felt paralyzed right away.
However, the words in the article that followed were strange.
“The awakened saint declared that McLane is a nation of benefactors. It is said that he saved her from danger due to the evil plan of the Cassel Tower…?”
“what?”
What kind of bullshit is that?
As I listened to the absurd sounds one after another, it felt like my brain function was paralyzed for a moment.
It was Victoria who woke him up from his dazed mind.
“You’re awake!?”
She screams louder than a knight and jumps up.
What I saw on that flushed face was not surprise, but pure joy.
‘Is this something that feels good? uh? No, wait a minute. It’s a good thing… right?’
Since it is difficult to understand the situation, judgment becomes slow.
“How on earth!? Master! What about you!?”
“Now, just a moment, Victoria.”
Massaging the back of his neck that had stiffened from shock, Damien called out to Victoria, who jumped up and down. And then I looked at the second article that came in.
“…So to sum up the story, the missing saint was found in Kyle Castle, and as soon as she woke up, she said that we had saved her?”
Even though I tried to explain the situation, I couldn’t understand what was going on.
“yes!”
But the driver just nodded.
“Ha…”
At that point, Damian gave up trying to think of a reason.
Fuck you.
I don’t know the English language.
It’s impossible to guess at this point.
Just…
‘What did that guy do again?’
I felt comfortable thinking that way. Anyway, the situation wasn’t that bad.
‘It’s not like they were accused of kidnapping, they said we helped them!’
So what is the best way to turn this ridiculous situation into an advantageous situation?
“…Contact the temple. It seems like the empire has joined hands with the Kassel Tower. Oh no, I’ll have to do it myself. Your Majesty is busy.”
The shock that made his heart sink to the soles of his feet gradually disappeared and a smile began to appear on Damian’s face.

That day, Logan did not immediately leave Kyle with Harmon.
Although he could not immediately approach the saint who was surrounded by people, Harman and he, who was confident that the saint would recover, waited for the saint to wake up and left a clear message.
[This is Logan McLane. Victor brought the saint here. And Lord Harman saved you. If you are aware of the situation, please take a moment to instruct the people around you.]
A message forced upon the awakened saint when she was still confused.
It may have been an additional burden on the mentally injured patient, but it was something that Logan had to deal with.
Fortunately, the saint’s recovery was faster than expected.
“…I want to be alone. Everyone please leave.”
Whose words should I disobey?
As soon as those words were out, Kyle’s knights went out to the door and began to stand on tight guard.
And Logan quietly slipped into the window instead of the door.
‘This is like hiding in my castle.’
I sighed and entered the room.
“It’s been a while, Your Majesty.”
The saintess smiled as she looked at Logan.
“And you can talk to me as you did before. Thanks to you, I have found the light again. I would also like to thank Lord Harman…”
Ilya’s face, smiling with a pale complexion, looked listless, but with a relaxed expression.
Looking at that, Logan realized that she understood the situation in more detail than he thought. Perhaps there was some exchange of information within the miracle that Harman showed.
“Lord Harman hasn’t woken up yet, so I hid him for a while. And now he’s not just a bishop, but the Pope of the Holy Kingdom, so I can’t talk comfortably.”
“No. Now it’s a holy kingdom and a temple, and I only have doubts. And since I’m planning to leave the temple soon, it’s easier if you just treat me like before.”
What is it like to feel like one’s soul is being eaten away, and why does a priest who gave everything to God, and even a saint, react this way?
Although curiosity arose again, Logan did not forget what he had to say right away.
“…Still, I can’t do that. And I’m sorry, but especially since I have a favor to ask the ‘Pope’.”
Sensing Logan’s determination from that tone of voice, the saintess’s expression hardened slightly.
What I expected really happened. Of course, it was a result of luck, but that was no reason not to take advantage of the situation.
“I’m sorry if you feel indebted to me, but I need you to help me just a little bit more.”
“Ah… But Your Majesty….”
“And as you know, helping me will soon mean giving trouble to the god who tried to encroach on you.”
Ilya, who was about to shake her head with a pale complexion, paused for a moment when Logan added something.
“…I want to hear a little more about your story.”
Logan smiled slightly as he looked at the saintess biting her lip.

– The missing Pope has emerged from the land of McLane.
– The Pope’s disappearance was part of the Kassel Tower’s conspiracy. It was McLane who saved the saint.
– The saint personally expressed her gratitude to McLane and expressed her full support.
In a world noisy due to war, more shocking news than ever was delivered. The ripple effect grew bigger day by day.
– Questions are raised about the cooperation between the Cassel Tower and the Empire in McLane.
– Survivors of the Battle of Calleheim from 10 Western countries. Testimony of defeat by the Empire due to the betrayal of the Kassel Tower. Declaration of withdrawal of support.
Now that the empire’s central and western armies are advancing towards the east, leaving only the minimum number of men in the central part, a truly fatal disaster has struck the empire.
And within a few days.
– I am certain that the empire’s plot to fool God and invade Noviens continued to this day.
– The Holy Kingdom declares the Kassel Tower and the Empire as enemies of God and declares a holy war.
A proclamation by Interim Pope Austin followed on behalf of the saint who had not yet returned to the Order.
But the empire’s response was also astute.
– The disappearance of the saint has nothing to do with us.
– The Kassel Tower is still an achievement of the Empire. There is no cooperation.
– After conquering McLane, those who framed the empire will be severely punished.
The Empire officially denied any relationship with the Kassel Tower and instead accelerated its advance towards McLane.
Of course, Seongguk ignored those words and accelerated preparations for the temple, but those on the continent who watched such movements only shook their heads.
– McLane’s new weapon and the appearance of the Grand Mage and Auror Master. The current war is changing too quickly.
– Even if the Holy Kingdom participates, the winner will be decided before then.
– The Holy Kingdom will have to fight the Empire alone or wander the continent in search of opponents for the lost crusade.
The majority of people had negative views regarding the declaration of temple.
But when Logan heard the news on his way back to Ruspelheim, he couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.
