Archmage Transcending Through Regression Chapter 194

The great mage who transcends by returning, episode 194

“…Hmm.”

The emperor looked at those who bowed their heads in front of him with their legs crossed with curious eyes.

Beyond communication beads.

Thirty or so different races knelt down and bowed their heads.

“So you’re saying you’re former members of Malien?”

– Yes, Your Majesty.

With their heads pressed to the ground, they responded to the Emperor’s words with the utmost respect.

Parliament of Malien.

Even the Emperor is aware of its existence.

It disappeared in his own generation, but it was said that representatives elected by the citizens ruled in the past.

It was a rather interesting story.

Of course, now it was ruled by a lord like any other territory, but….

‘Kelibosra….’

In general, from the point of view of the rulers, it was natural that a city maintained by representatives elected by the citizens was not very pleasant.

It would be a lie if he said otherwise.

It was only natural that the prudent and heartless ancestors were wary of that ‘danger’.

Therefore, the previous emperor implicitly supported Kellibos.

Ironically, now.

The decision to reverse the decision of the ancestors returned to him.

‘…What shall I do?’

which decision is best

I thought for a moment about when I had risen to the position of this ‘Emperor’.

He ascended to the throne of the emperor in the bloody waters of the purge.

What were you thinking that day?

‘…He said he would take a different path from his father.’

Didn’t you repeat to yourself that you wouldn’t be like that?

The position of this emperor who stepped on the corpses of blood relatives….

– You will thank me.

Right before he died, my father said that and laughed.

Because of your heartlessness, you, my son, can do anything you want.

last years of the ancestors.

His father became a truly heartless and ruthless emperor.

He cleverly sorted out the angular families, and a lot of blood was shed in the process.

…Know.

Not wrong.

Just like his father said, he is the confidence he is today thanks to his heartlessness.

but.

‘Not all right, father.’

The emperor opened his eyes, which had been closed for a moment.

“The evidence that the devil was found was confirmed. It was pretty quick. I never thought I would find evidence and prove it to me in such a short period of time.”

Hero Mikhail moved really quickly.

He must have already prepared everything at the time he discovered the traces of the devil.

Evidence found by Mikhail.

The ‘half-life stone’ was immediately delivered to the emperor through the kingdom.

It was a short time, but the hero’s magic made it possible.

In the case of small materials, it is never difficult to send them.

…In any case, Archbishop Alley of the capital’s central temple immediately proved its ominousness and supported the hero in the name of the Church.

‘Even if I thought about it, I was sure it was too fast.’

Normally, the process of going through several people like this would naturally slow down, but there was nothing like that when it came to being a hero.

That would mean that the hero is receiving absolute support from within the Church.

– It’s all true, Your Majesty.

– If we have to risk our lives, we will. ….

“Is there anything more valuable than the honor of a warrior? There is no need to risk your life, representatives of Malien.”

In any case, if the hero was confident enough to risk his name, it would be fine.

In fact, I saw the ominousness of the ‘half-life stone’ with my own two eyes.

An enemy of humanity that brings evil and destruction in itself at this point.

The emperor has already declared that existence to be overthrown.

Therefore, it is not at all strange to draw a sword when it is intertwined.

However, Kelibos will not be so easily passed over.

‘Kelibos is quite a slob. I’m sure he’ll evade the connection with the devil….’

I’m just talking about the relevance. If the devil is truly involved, even Kelliboss cannot escape responsibility.

At least the ‘justification’ for Kellibos to rule the city of Malien disappears.

“good night. If the city is overtaken by demons, the ruler cannot help but be held accountable.”

– That’s right.

The emperor rested his chin and looked down at the lawmakers quietly.

“But is there any guarantee that the city will be completely normalized just because you guys form the council again?”

– that…

In response to the emperor’s core question, the lawmakers looked at the emperor with puzzled expressions.

Emperor Hana just looked at them.

A heavy burden weighs them down.

The spirit of someone who was born destined to rule from the start.

After a while, one of the lawmakers struggled to open his mouth.

It was Perdix.

– …I don’t think it can be normalized right away.

“Then, isn’t your council rather a seed of chaos? From my point of view, who rules the empire, there is no reason to return autonomy to you, apart from holding Keliboss accountable.”

– Your Majesty, can I dare to speak?

The emperor nodded.

I also wondered what they would say.

Actually, I was already thinking of cutting off Kelibos’ limbs….

Still need to listen.

Permission was granted, and Perdix cautiously continued.

– The reason we said normalization won’t be easy is…It’s not just because the city is sick beyond repair.

“Oh, then what is it for?”

– Because of the nature of Malien, Your Majesty. Maintaining the city of Kelibos will not be difficult. However….

Perdix paused for a moment before continuing.

– I think there will be no confusion in order to reclaim our city ‘Malien’.

“…Hmm.”

The emperor tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand.

“Wouldn’t it be better to promise me something plausible? Even if it’s a bluff, I think it would be better to say something good right away to move my heart.”

-Your Majesty is a wise man.

Perdix said politely.

– The warrior said so. To His Majesty, words spoken would be of no avail.

“Hoo.”

– …Your Majesty also said that you are interested in ‘possible promises’ within the permissible range.

A smile crept across the emperor’s lips at those words.

Warrior.

Yes, of course he would.

I thought it would be pretty fun even at the first meeting that day, but I never thought it would come out like this.

“Is that a possible promise? If so, what is the promise?”

– Once again, we will create a city where there is art and freedom.

“Be free.”

The emperor smiled and said.

“Has it ever occurred to you that ‘freedom’ doesn’t sound so good to me?”

-Your Majesty respects freedom, but hates self-indulgence.

“Haha self-indulgence!”

At those words, the emperor tapped his armrest and rose from his seat.

“That’s right. I don’t hate freedom. I just hate indulgence without responsibility. whoops yes Did the hero say that too?”

– …That’s right.

At those words, the emperor giggled and laughed.

It’s a word I like.

Freedom and indulgence….

Now they are saying that they will save the city where freedom has collapsed.

Today’s Malien is self-indulgence itself.

They’re not, warriors. He knows a lot about himself.

“good night.”

The Emperor concluded.

The guy said something that I liked quite a bit this time.

“It is as you say. I don’t like cities where self-indulgence prevails. If it was neglected, it would be the responsibility of the family that neglected it.”

“then….”

“If the devil was involved, Kellibos would be held accountable. Even if it is different from their ‘intent’, it is necessary to present one city that caused it.”

He immediately ordered the commander of the Imperial Knights, Hector, who was guarding him by his side.

“Tell Kellibos. They would be held accountable for their indulgence in failing to defend the city from demons. As of present time, Malien will not be the land of Kelibos.”

“I will follow your orders.”

Hector immediately bowed his head and left the room.

– Thank you for the grace!

All at once, the lawmakers banged their heads on the floor with trembling voices.

The weight of the emperor’s words is of a different dimension.

At the point he made this declaration, Keliboth’s hold over Malien was weakened.

‘As expected, he’s a fun guy.’

The emperor was once again convinced that his eyes were not mistaken.

The hero of this generation is quite interesting.

Like the recorded warrior, he is neither naive nor self-righteous.

It looks like it will be fun to watch.

‘I’ll have to call it one more time in the near future.’

Of course, another interesting thing is that he is not the one who will come right away when called.

Got it.

Laxia was certain that her fatal blow had hit the hero.

‘Even a hero can’t survive that blow!’

She herself knows best how immense power the Anti-Life Stone holds.

Isn’t it even refined to suit oneself?

she’s not stupid

At the point of facing the hero, he admitted that he could not defeat him unless he was prepared for losses.

That’s why he tried to gain strength by using the Anti-Life Stone, even at the cost of his own life.

She definitely felt it.

The moment you use the Anti-Life Stone, the feeling of filling up in the depths of your soul.

‘Ah, was it like this?’

Did the monarch you serve always have this kind of power?

An ecstatic moment.

I was convinced that even the hero could not control his blow.

Go beyond your own limits.

Isn’t it a power that surpasses even the destiny of being born as a ‘dream horse’?

Until now, she has played the role of stealthily commanding them while hiding behind humanity.

It was definitely fun though.

‘haha…!’

I was not faithful.

Yes, this overwhelming power!

The power to put down something, even the same devil!

yes this is real

If you achieve the achievement of killing a hero, your position will be much higher than before.

And his favor too….

“Thank you, warrior!”

she exclaimed with an expression of delight.

“I think I will get a lot thanks to you! Even if it’s a shortened lifespan, you can get it back as long as you have the achievement of killing a hero!”

He was convinced that if his blow had hit, the hero would never be able to stand still.

If that’s the case, it’s enough to cook the broken-down hero after that.

If he just died in one blow, that’s all I hoped for.

What if you’re fine?

‘No way.’

she snorted.

If that’s true, wouldn’t it mean that you can’t help the hero no matter what you do?

Impossible unless you understand the blessings you have received from the Great God.

Of course, warriors are impossible.

Aren’t the warriors the ones who receive Hekau’s blessing and oppose them?

Being blessed also means that you were born destined to stand up against them….

The hero cannot understand the devil.

And, ironically, that ignorance had strangled the hero.

“good.”

She slowly approached the hero.

It’s highly probable that he wasn’t completely dead.

If so, tie it up first.

Right away, the warrior to the monarch….

“Right. Is it like this?”

“…uh?”

An inaudible sound was heard.

She widened her eyes in disbelief.

in front of her eyes.

“Oh no. No way….”

A warrior stood.

without taking any hits.

Even the robe he was wearing was not damaged in the slightest.

furthermore.

“Uh how…Boo is impossible! How can you, a warrior…!”

“thanks. I think I know a little bit.”

In one hand of the hero, a black orb floated.

Destruction and annihilation….

It’s the power that has been condensed.

She couldn’t help but instinctively feel what it was like.

“Seriously, that’s extinction….”

“It is more efficient to unite darkness than to destroy objects in reality. I understand.”

“Ahhh….”

I couldn’t understand.

what is this

Not this warrior.

what the hell is this monster

My body was shaking without realizing it.

Instinct refuses to understand the monster.

power of the demon.

Even if she wasn’t a high-ranking demon, I could tell.

What the warrior used now.

It is a power granted only to a great god and should not be used by mortals.

Much less should a warrior use it….

“What the hell are you! What! Why did the hero use that power…!”

“What?”

Whether she was shocked or not, the hero held out his hand with an expression of no concern.

“Your George is a man.”

With those words, ‘disappearance’ reached her.

It was a slow movement that could definitely be avoided at any time, but for some reason I couldn’t avoid it.

“I hate poetry….”

As if caught by something.

The body does not move.

It’s an inevitable end, so just accept it…Her face was stained with despair.

Even if he had an end, he never thought it would be such a miserable end.

“I hate it!”

and.

pop.

The screaming stopped.

As if it never existed from the beginning, the dreamer disappeared from this world.

* * *

“…hmm.”

After annihilating Laxia, I frowned for a moment before turning my head to look at Set.

She was looking at me quietly.

with complex light.

[you….]

“What why?”

why do you look like that
