Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 480
Episode 480 ‘This world is definitely interesting because it has many variables.’
Aion, the god of water and agriculture, or rather, Aion’s apostle, thought so.
The reason for distinguishing between the two beings was clear. This is because a god inhabiting a human body has reduced cognitive and thinking abilities and even inherits some of the desires left in the body.
No matter how much the essence is the same, how can they be viewed as the same being if the level of awareness and desires are different?
Of course, there are cases like Ageron, the god of gold and commerce, or Lord Ageron of the old Gold Dragon, whose nature is so rough that he is not affected by human remnants.
Anyway, the apostle of Aion found this situation quite interesting.
His untimely leisure was partly because he had the confidence to resolve the situation no matter how it unfolded, and the fact that the person he possessed had a very laid-back personality, as befits a priest of Aion, also played a role.
‘It wasn’t a lie.’
I finally became convinced after seeing the guy who was supposed to be the incarnation actually destroy Zibrik’s fragments.
When your perspective on the world changes, your thoughts also change.
Although his status as a god had been lowered and most of his original wisdom had been lost, it was enough to understand the underlying situation.
but.
– dare!!!!!!
When the remaining fragments of Zibrik began to draw in all the power of the altar again, he had no choice but to narrow his eyes.
As we had seen once 300 years ago, Jibrik was twisting the conditions of the Advent spell, which could only be used on descendants with his own magical traces.
A transformation that simply requires a little bit of one’s own blood to be mixed in.
A whopping 2,000 years have passed since Zibrik left this world, so it is not surprising that Zibrik’s blood has spread to the majority of humans on the continent. In other words, the condition was essentially the same as being human.
Of course, the resulting loss of energy and divinity will also be great, but he will have no choice but to accept it. Because it would be better than just disappearing.
In any case, Zibrik is showing an amazing sight by instantly modifying a resurrection technique that covers half of the 10 classes with only a part of the split soul.
‘As expected…’
That ridiculous genius, which seemed to have mistakenly resided in the body of a human being of a lower race, as if the soul that should have been born as a member of the Shinryong clan, had not gone anywhere.
but.
‘Yes, it’s just a fragment.’
The apostles were not impatient.
It’s not because they’re stupid that they handled things this haphazardly.
We have already figured out the best way to get rid of the parasites that covet fish from fish farms, which keep appearing again no matter how many times we kill them. Revealing part of the true self through the apostle is not the entire plan.
“…I think this much has been used up.”
“The power gathered at the altar is much greater than I thought.”
“As expected, what we saw through the species’ perspective was too limited.”
The apostle of Asaron, from the dragon race, and the apostle of Atran, from the dwarves, added strength to Aion’s words by adding words that did not need to be said. The other apostles would also have figured out cause and effect at a glance.
As they became such small beings, the instincts of a species that was subordinate to dragons seemed to be revealed.
Aion’s Apostle found it quite funny, but he didn’t show it.
However, he courageously opened his mouth.
“It’s troubling if the situation progresses this way. I don’t think it’s time to count the losses anymore.”
“Come forward, Ageron. As promised, this is the moment for your apostles to sacrifice themselves.”
Ageron’s golden scales trembled, but no answer came immediately.
I understand the desire to reject it, but this is clearly a ‘promise’.
As an Ageron apostle, he had no choice but to protect it, so Aion’s apostle just watched the situation with a relaxed mind.
On the other hand, Logan couldn’t relax at all.
‘no!’
Until the first crown flew, I thought there was a way. Since there were apostles watching and he had memories of defeating Zibrik’s soul before, he decided that there was no need to use the last resort.
However, when he saw the bracelet start to glow and Zibrik’s soul try to enter the emperor’s body, he had no choice but to change his mind. To be precise, it was because I witnessed Clayton and Luisa becoming thinner at that moment.
I glanced at the apostles, but strangely, there was no movement, and their essence was so high that not even a fragment of their mind could be read.
Crackling.
Logan gritted his teeth and made up his mind.
‘Can not help it.’
The apostle thinks later. Because I can’t sit here and watch the death of my people while watching Zibrik’s descent.
Wooooow.
The nine force cores located in the heart resonated intensely for an instant, spewing out one more core.
And at that moment, the power of the magic circle that bound him was torn apart.
Wood-dud-dud-duk.
“Oh my?”
“That’s impossible!”
“Is that possible…?”
As soon as the apostles’ exclamatory voices rang out, the beloved sword Lux in Logan’s hand was swung, sprinkling brilliant golden light.
Ugh.
The strike of the Light Clash, which reversed the 9th type of causality of the divine sword’s vision, tore apart the magic circle, Zibrik’s soul, and the emperor’s body in one go.
but.
“…It’s amazing.”
Emperor Ani Jibrik suddenly stood up and looked at Logan with his raised right arm with an indifferent expression.
Pusssss.
A supreme bracelet that crumbles like dust.
The gratuitous artifact that once brainwashed even the Pope lost its purpose and was destroyed.
And soon, a dark gray energy spread like fog from that spot.
Logan’s golden energy, which had poured into the gray fog that had suddenly grown in size as if it would annihilate his body at any moment, began to slowly be pushed out.
The moment when Zibrick’s gaze, who had been looking at the scene without any change in expression, turned to the sacrifices piled up behind him.
Their bodies seemed to have dried even further, and their severed left arm sprouted anew with a surge of red energy.
Zibrik, who was looking at the arm that looked oddly whiter than it was, soon turned his eyes back to the golden light that matched his own power.
Ugh.
“Was it possible to deal with something like this with the power of life? It’s such a pity. The loss was so great because I gave up on you.”
After checking the apostles who were still bound by the magic circle, Zibrick’s gaze turned to Logan again.
“My descendant, the child who defied time. You will have to pay for my losses.”
As Zibrik raised his pure white left hand, the gray energy amplified and pressed the golden light.
Wooooow.
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa.
Rumbling.
“Hmph!”
As the pouring gray energy began to push out the golden light, the entire vast cave square shook as if there had been an earthquake.
That’s it.
‘Damn it.’
Cold sweat broke out on Logan’s forehead.
The situation has already reached the limit of characteristic expression.
However, the revived Jibrik’s power was stronger than expected.
It made me wonder if the difference between when I was just a soul and after I got a body was this big.
Even….
‘Recovery?’
While confronting him, Zibrik’s soul, which was just a small fragment, was seen growing in size by swallowing the remnants of the soul remaining in the emperor’s body.
Moreover, I felt that Gibrik’s power was amplified accordingly.
That was the time when Logan unconsciously bit his lip in a truly hopeless situation.
“I guess it was just an expedient. I can’t expect more.”
“Ageron, are you still hesitating?”
“Keep your promise.”
“Before it’s too late”
“Before even my body is taken away by Zibrik.”
“…I get it. Damn it.”
A series of incomprehensible voices were heard coming from the direction where the apostles were, and suddenly a huge golden light burst out.
A brilliant radiance that is something different from your own golden light.
Before Logan could understand the meaning, Zibrick’s expression became horribly distorted.
Kwaaaaaaa!!
“Ageron!!? How!?”
“This time, I will put an end to it, Jibrik.”
Ageron’s voice rang out, followed by a mind-boggling roar.
And only then did Logan realize that the ceiling of the cave plaza had been blown open.
Between the huge hole in the rock wall, which was probably several hundred meters long, I could see golden and gray colors intertwined in the sky high up in the sky.
Rumbling.
In the aftermath alone, the mountain was being chipped away and the square was collapsing. The power of true gods who disappeared a long time ago in ancient times has appeared in this world.
Logan stared blankly at the scene for a moment, and only came to his senses the moment the fragments of the falling rock passed before his eyes.
“…Damn it.”
Kwakwakwak.
Then, he reflexively used his aura to lift the bodies of Clayton and Luisa, who had almost been crushed by a rock the size of a house.
Although he hesitated for a moment, he took King Dongyik, who might become his in-law, when he tried to escape the collapsing cave.
Flash!
The two energies colliding in the sky instantly collided head-on, creating an intense explosion of light.
A light that is dazzlingly beautiful but contains the power of destruction.
Against the rays of light pouring down from above, crushing everything, Logan raised his auror to the highest level.
“Jenjaang!!!”
He wrapped himself and the bodies of the three people and used as much power as he could to cut off space and protect their souls.
For a moment, the light pouring in with the power to destroy everything that exists turned my vision pure white.
Soon, the terrible flow of power disappeared and Logan carefully raised his head and looked up at the sky.
To be exact, it is a huge sphere-shaped mass of light formed by half golden and half gray intertwined.
‘It’s really amazing.’
Although the light did not flash like before, the enormous power conveyed within the sphere felt extremely vivid.
As a result, the surrounding environment came into view a beat later.
“…Hmm.”
Where had the mountain range that stood so strong gone? I was left standing inside a crater in a wasteland where everything had been shattered.
‘Mountains and mountain ranges disappeared without a trace.’
It was at this point that I felt my heart ache what a terrifying time it must have been in ancient times when these people ran rampant.
Strange, disturbing voices could be heard from one side.
“Did we get into a power struggle?”
“It would be over faster if one of us helped.”
“Then you did it.”
“I don’t want to throw away the enemy attacks I’ve accumulated over a thousand years. It would be better to throw away the body of an apostle.”
“Still, if Zibrik wins, that’s what it should be, right?”
“Could it be that Ageron can’t dispose of just one fragment?”
Before he knew it, the five monsters surrounding him each spat out a word.
“Apostle…”
Logan groaned, and among them, the blue-scaled apostle turned to him as if responding to his voice.
“That was impressive, descendant of Zibrik.”
uh?
A moment when Logan was rather taken aback by the strangely non-hostile tone.
“For a human, he’s definitely amazing.”
“It would be nice to have you as our representative.”
An apostle in the form of a giant elf and an apostle in the form of a dwarf also responded favorably.
Why are you like this?
Looking at him in confusion, the apostle in the form of a huge orc sighed.
“Then the trust needs to be adjusted, hmm. Then I won’t be able to stand up.”
“But it’s worth it.”
While the white-scale dragon apostle was also nodding like that, the blue-scale dragon apostle spoke words that awakened Logan’s spirit.
“Yes , yes. . I thought it was an expedient, but it turned out that I had reached the level of a rookie, albeit in a shallow way. And that’s with power, not magic.”
“Ah…”
Logan was finally able to realize why he was able to endure without exhaustion even after using his special ability. He was barely able to overcome the mental shock caused by the series of battles. The wall of limitation was finally overcome.
As soon as I realized it, my anxious mind calmed down as if it were a lie.
I felt that my will was in complete control of my surroundings.
It was only then that I became convinced that I could twist the laws of the world and change cause and effect with just my will. “Ha…”
The
soul, completely absorbed in the situation, looked around.
Unlike before, the circumstances of the apostles and their status above were read in an instant.
From the mouth of Logan, who finally figured out why the apostles were like this. A grin escaped.
