Archmage Transcending Through Regression Chapter 222

The great mage who transcends by returning, episode 222

“…Ahh.」

Deep inside Dragonia’s cave.

A dragon was lying helplessly with its head hanging down.

Both eyes were full of gloomy light.

As if it just exists like an inanimate object….

“Will this time be the end of my patience?

”

Of course I know it doesn’t make any sense.

He is aware that this is his last time, but he has no idea that his perseverance will be rewarded in a good way.

a very old past.

The reason why he had no choice but to fall like this.

He, as always, was trapped in the past, constantly regretting it.

– I don’t know why we should give our lives for humanity.

– Aren’t they the lower races anyway?

– We must have a more sacred and noble duty.

The voices of my old kinsman fill my head and echo.

What if he had insisted a little stronger that day?

It’s not just words.

Could it have changed if he had tried to solve the problem with the momentum of risking his life?

If so….

Perhaps the disastrous result of an angry god punishing his own people could have been avoided.

At least, my people would have been able to die an honorable death as guardians of the world.

maybe maybe maybe….

That way, you constantly have delusions of what it would have been like if you had done the right thing.

It was the way he chose to endure this hellish moment.

“…Mr. Asar.」

– If you don’t do your duty, I will reap the favor too!

When I recalled the wrath of the great god in my memory, my eyes trembled for a moment.

The arrogance and selfishness of the old race….

In front of the god’s wrath, even the famous dragon, a high race, was meaningless.

The old race has fallen….

“haha….」

Will the savior be able to truly save everyone?

Will he be able to save himself, who is already dead as he foresaw?

I don’t know.

The years have made it hard to hold on to hope any longer.

【Yes, it is impossible.】

【Since your race has already ended.】

【Accept it.】

The only dragon at the moment.

Apophis crouched down to protect herself from the terrible urge to erode herself.

without thinking about anything

He locks himself in delusion filled with the convenience of being able to protect himself again.

…That’s how he continued the patience he had been doing endlessly.

* * *

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

”

It was too ominous to be called a dragon and took on a sad appearance.

“…Stop it!”

“You can’t let Selliold go out of town like this!”

The Dragonians desperately tried to stop the rampaging dragon.

All kinds of magic poured out and the barrier covered the dragon that was running out of control.

but.

「

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah

“…Oh no!”

The dragon’s mouth, which had been suffering for a long time while shedding bloody tears, suddenly began to see black flames.

I know the identity of that flame.

From the outside, it looks like a simple flame, but it’s the same, but it’s not.

“B Breath….”

The butler muttered in a trembling voice with his mouth open.

Breath.

In old records, it was said that the dragon would occasionally unleash a lethal blow.

Did they say that the breath emitted by the proper old dragon was so powerful that even the capital of the country was reduced to ashes?

‘Of course, it’s not like that now.’

It seemed that he was neither in a perfect dragon state nor in a properly rational state.

Of course, it wouldn’t be comparable to the power of the breath in the records.

But that doesn’t mean it isn’t dangerous.

“…Tsk.”

“Savior?”

Kairian tilted his head.

I stepped in front of the dragon, which seemed to be about to release its breath at any moment.

Accordingly, the eyes of the Dragonians who were confronting each other in a tense atmosphere were also focused on me.

“This human?”

“Why are humans here….”

I left their eyes behind and quietly faced the dragon.

‘It’s completely gone.’

All sorts of emotions were swirling in the two eyes that were dripping bloody tears.

I let out a small sigh and put strength into the hand holding the staff.

‘It is said that Dragonia was destined to be annihilated no matter what it did unless it used its hands properly….’

The curse grows thicker by the day.

Isn’t there a way to prevent it also in a situation where it is not appropriate?

It occurred to me that there were more things that I missed in the world of regression than I thought.

“…first.”

I stretched out my staff towards the dragon, which was about to unleash its breath.

Mana is intertwined and entangled to create magic.

Of course, the magic I’m going to use now isn’t just made up of mana.

For a general magician, magic is to weave formulas using ‘mana’, but for me it is a little different.

divine magic.

The biggest change after reaching the 8th circle was that he was able to use divine magic on a larger scale.

“< Weave. >.”

At that moment, the divine power and mana inherent in me raged and began to entangle the dragon’s mouth tightly.

“…?!”

The dragon widened its eyes and exhaled as much as it could to release its breath.

But it’s already too late.

Because the magic I’ve concocted has definitely sealed the dragon’s mouth.

Roaring!

Instead of devastating the area, the breath simmered in the dragon’s mouth and burst out.

For a moment, the dragon’s eyes turned white.

thud!

Prepare the next magic again.

My purpose is not to kill the dragon in front of me.

If that was the goal in the first place, I would have used the most lethal magic I have ever known.

I was taken aback by the unexpected situation and moved right in front of the struggling dragon.

His characteristic pupils, resembling snakes, swayed right in front of his eyes.

[Michael what are you going to do?]

Set asked.

I spoke to the guy while casting the magic I had prepared.

“I need to know what’s going on.”

[Maybe I can find out after fainting?]

“No, that wouldn’t be it.”

Judging by the gibberish that this dragon just spewed out, he was clearly aware of ‘something’.

Judging from my unstable mental state, it must be the truth that I never wanted to know.

The world tree gave me a clue.

She said that ‘occasionally’ Dragonia realizes its true nature.

That is, the state of self-awareness does not continue.

If they were properly aware of their condition in the first place, it would not make sense that Dragonians would not realize their identity.

In other words, in order to know the problem of Dragonia with certainty, it can be seen that there is no chance other than now.

it was better

Congestion is certainly not a pleasant thing, but there is nothing like this to check the current situation.

“Then where….”

I put my hand on the dragon’s head.

The light of divine great magic embraced the dragon in the palm of his hand.

and….

“< Reveal. >.”

The dragon’s severed consciousness unfolded right in front of my eyes.

* * *

“Seliord.”

As soon as I came into consciousness, I spoke the name of the dragon that ran out of control.

Saying someone’s name is an important act.

It’s because it means that you are definitely aware of the other person’s existence.

“….」

But there is no response.

I slowly moved into a deeper consciousness.

The inner consciousness is not particularly different from that of humans.

thick fog.

Fragments of memories of ‘Seliord’ that can be seen from time to time.

I don’t see anything special right now.

Or just chatting with colleagues.

Faint hopes and fears….

You can see this and that, but the most important things are not visible.

The most important thing.

‘Seliord himself is not there.’

Seliord, who could be said to be the subject of this ritual, was nowhere to be seen.

Memories that pass like a fantasy through fog are just memories.

In order to properly understand the current situation, it was necessary to identify Seliord himself, who was aware of ‘something’.

But then.

cooong.

While I was walking, I felt a strange vibration under my feet.

iron puck.

something ominous and soggy.

An unknown black mucus slowly began to fill up.

“…hmm.”

This is not good.

At first glance, this useless goo looks like a curse that binds Dragonia….

There’s nothing good about being exposed.

…but.

‘This curse isn’t a curse tied to Selliold himself.’

yes sure

I turned my gaze to the path this bloody black goo was flowing into.

It’s coming in from the ‘outside’.

In other words, the cause of the curse exists outside.

I concentrated and observed the flow of the curse.

You must finish your business before it is completely filled.

I headed for the ‘deep part’ of my consciousness, shaking off the mucus that was filling up with the momentum to swallow me right away.

and could see

The little dragon crouched on the other side and trembled.

The dragon’s scales in reality were pitch-black, but what I saw immediately in front of me was a clean blue.

call his name again

“Seliord.”

“…?!」

Then he reacted instantly.

He flinches and straightens his crouched body for a very short time and looks at me.

Blue eyes like scales looked at me quietly.

“All of you…?」

“I am a warrior. Well, the shrine maiden called me a savior.”

“…!」

His pupils tremble slightly.

“Looking at the rough reactions, it seems that you have realized your true nature to some extent. You will soon forget.”

“Ahhh….”

Once again he shuddered in agony and began to moan.

“That’s right. We, Dragonia, were actually called a high-level race a long time ago….”

“Yes, it is a dragon.”

I grimaced as I looked at the slime that had now risen to my ankles.

There is no time, so you need to quickly get to the point and get information.

“What exactly did you see?”

“crime…I have seen the sins of our ancestors….”

He answered my question faithfully, despite his gibberish.

“Everything was written in that curse. They have renounced the duties they owed to the clan, and that has made us…」

“If you gave up your duty….”

“They had to be protected! In a battle with an ominous being, I had to help the right person at the vanguard!」 The

blue dragon shouted again with a desperate voice.

“But I didn’t! That we, their sins…Oh no no! We are them after all! After committing a terrible sin, they end up…!」

‘It’s not in good shape.’

Did the other dragons that ran rampant in the past also lose their memories in despair after going through this process?

“Not only that! Lord of Sin! You must be on the lookout for him! He’s definitely on this…!」

With that, he hurriedly approached me.

Then he grabbed my clothes with trembling hands and said.

“I think we…! Atonement must be made! You can’t just forget and collapse like this, savior…!」

The mucus was now up to her knees.

The dragon finally delivered his last words with great difficulty.

“Please, my savior! Freedom and salvation to the one who endured the sins we committed alone…!」

“Okay.”

It’s time to get out.

I put my hand on the head of the dragon who kept screaming in anxiety.

The body is too small to be called that great high race.

But it’s okay.

“Let me save you.”

Is that why I came here

And after answering that, I got out of Seliord’s consciousness.
