Archmage Transcending Through Regression Chapter 286

The Grand Mage who transcends by returning, Chapter 286

To put it bluntly, even if it was a severe ordeal for the two apostles, I wasn’t particularly afraid of it.

I didn’t even think that I wouldn’t be able to withstand it, and I was sure that I could overcome it even if I ran into it.

Neither underestimate nor overestimate.

I overcame ‘severe despair’ a long time ago.

In the first place, returning is an act that you wouldn’t dare attempt unless you overcome it.

‘It’s not that I don’t know what those twins want.’

Nine out of ten, the ordeal the two ambitiously prepared is torturing me…Well, it probably didn’t have any effect.

But then it’s not worth it

The twin apostles will express their dissatisfaction with the progress that is different from their expectations, and I will end up getting the result of ‘passing the trial’ exactly as expected.

overly expected.

i don’t want that

Then, what is the secondary income I want to gain through this tomb?

Simple.

‘Things when Asar was there.’

Exactly how did Set sympathize with the Demon God and what happened after that?

And how the great Asar lost his life….

The apostle has limitations.

There is a clear limit to the ‘things in the past’ that they can explain to me right away.

But that’s not enough.

Now, in a situation where the demon god descends and a crisis comes in earnest, the lack of information is a pretty fatal problem.

so that.

“…Set that traitor as an agent of the ordeal on your behalf?”

“An apostle tests an apostle?”

The twins reviewed my proposal with a thoughtful expression.

I spoke again.

“It doesn’t matter if I accept the ordeal as it is. Time is on my side anyway. If I’m not ready, I’d rather be comfortable and good.”

“….”

“But what about you guys? If all the hard work is wasted without any meaning, can it really be the best thing for you guys?”

“That is….”

This area is no different from a magic circle elaborately created for the ‘trial’ of the twin apostles Mecht and Lesset.

But I broke it.

Of course it will have to be restored.

Before long, this area will be able to return to the way it was before I destroyed it.

But will I give you time?

I don’t know anything else, but when the ‘challenger’ visits, the apostle must go through the ordeal without delay.

Besides, those two confirmed.

It means that even the trials they set out ambitiously can’t really hit me.

– …The contractor is really mean.

Then Wise spoke to me in my head.

– The Contractor knows that the two of them harbor a strong hatred for Set. And didn’t he create the current situation in order to make me vomit that hatred without hesitation?

…what.

I won’t say no.

– To put it bluntly, they used this apostle named ‘Set’ as bait. The contractor wants to directly check the truth of Shinhwa Age with it.

“….”

right.

As Weiss said, it was for that reason that I had planned these cumbersome things.

– Certainly effective.

I see

– If I had to give you one piece of advice, there is always a reason why divine beings put ‘restrictions’ on them.

I know that.

There must be a reason for the restriction.

I just judged that obtaining the information of the Age of Myth was more important than that.

And that’s not all.

‘After all, this is also necessary for future work.’

Now came the time when the unity of the apostles was absolutely necessary.

No matter what circumstances happened in the past, Set is also a member of such an apostle.

It is not possible to leave the seeds of discord unattended like this.

It would be better to take this opportunity to solve the problem for sure.

‘In the end, either way, it’s just doing what needs to be done someday.’

Thinking so, I turned my gaze back to the twins.

It was a pretty worried expression.

“Ha, but if that happens, the restriction of not telling the past….”

“You guys are not breaking any restrictions. They are simply giving me ‘trials’ in order to fulfill my duty as an apostle. is not it?”

“that….”

The twins were still troubled.

Of course, it’s not what I want to worry about for a long time.

The reason I provoked them in the first place was also to not give them time to think about it.

I immediately spoke to the two with a provocative expression.

“Are you afraid of me?”

“What…?!”

Looking at the twins glaring at me with their eyes wide open, I continued to speak.

“Look. Aren’t you staggering? He must not have the confidence to overwhelm Set with an ordeal.”

“Muh what what are you talking about…!!”

Lesset shouted, blushing red.

Mecht, who seems calm, also has a very heated expression.

‘It’s all over.’

Of course, it’s not that there’s absolutely no possibility for those two to refuse.

It would be unsatisfying for both of them to express the things of the Shinhwa Age, which were restricted in the first place, even in such an indirect way.

but.

‘I don’t want to do that again.’

Due to repeated provocations, the two are now quite agitated.

Besides, isn’t there even the ‘set’ that the two hate so much in front of their eyes? Even if you try not to show it, you can’t hide even a minor reaction caused by emotions.

I threw the bait.

Whether or not to take the bait is ultimately the twin’s choice.

and after a while

“Good Joe…!”

The twins accepted the offer.

It was as expected.

* * *

“Hehe, challenger. Will you regret it?”

“Yes, you will regret it.”

The twins told me, laughing with their mouths covered.

The two exposed eyes drawing an arc line was quite an expression of confidence in my victory.

“Because her despair is great.”

“No matter how heroic they are, in the end, it’s not something a mortal living for a limited time can endure!”

The twins spoke alternately.

An even face.

My stomach hurts a little when these two little boys barely reach my waist talking like this.

“What if I pass?”

“…Yes?”

“What will I do if I pass the ordeal? If you said it so confidently, what should the two of you bet on?”

“Walk? It’s an ordeal. There is a reward called a god, so why should we bet….”

“Ah, that’s the story of the ordeal involving me. To be honest, you can’t bully me, so isn’t the next best thing to bullying the set?”

“Uh, that….”

I smiled and said as I looked at the two rolling my eyes here and there.

“Then do this. If I fail, I’ll give you whatever you two want.”

“…uh?”

“On the contrary, if I succeed, you guys give me anything I want. whatever it is.”

At my words, the eyes of the two shook slightly.

If I fail, you can ask me for anything.

You don’t have to think too hard about what the twins thought of first.

“…Does it matter if it’s about that woman?”

“As I said, whatever.”

“Joe is good!”

At those words, Lesset shouted.

“Do it! It doesn’t matter because we’ll win anyway!”

“…okay.”

Lesset and Mehet alternately speak to me. The expression of unconditional confidence in their victory.

what if it was

I also asked for the additional bait thrown, so now….

“Let’s start.”

It’s time to face the ordeal.

The content of the ordeal is simple.

At the beginning of the ordeal, ‘Set’ temporarily loses his memory and gets stuck in the past.

Here, if ‘Set’ is completely buried in the past, the twins win.

If I overcome somehow and make a choice that is different from the planned memory, it is my victory…what kind of content

[Ummm.]

Set was waiting for the ordeal with a nervous expression. She turned to me and asked.

[…] …Is it because you want to know what happened that day? What happened.]

“I won’t say no.”

[I will soon be faithful to my role in the past in the ‘illusion’ created by Mecht and Lesset.]

She will temporarily lose her memory and return to the ‘set’ of that time.

With the appearance of the time when he possessed the full power of an apostle and possessed the appropriate memory and character.

[…] …You might be disappointed.]

“That’s right.”

I had already heard roughly what Set had in the past.

However, ‘hearing’ like that and seeing the scene of the day in person may not be the same.

Set is talking about it now.

but.

“If I had, I would have done it right away.”

[…] ….]

I said that and lightly brushed Set’s hair.

At my words, she hesitated for a moment.

[Mikhail I….]

“Ready!”

“You can go in now!”

And then the twins’ voices were heard.

Before I knew it, a portal large enough for one person to enter and exit had been created.

“Go in and be disappointed!”

“Let them despair as they please!”

Saying that, the twins’ eyes were on Set, not on me.

clear hatred.

Seth shrugged his shoulders, but didn’t really react to what the two said.

Just stare at the portal for a while and head there.

And that was when I too tried to enter the portal.

“A rude challenger.”

“why.”

“You don’t fully understand that woman’s ‘despair’. That’s why we’re pretty sure you can’t pass the ordeal.”

“…Hmm.”

Is it because I don’t have enough understanding of sets?

That’s why those two are convinced that I will fail.

Well, maybe that’s not entirely wrong.

Both of them will eventually buy it. It’s ridiculous to ignore what they’re saying at all.

but.

“by the way.”

“Yes, tell me. A challenger to fail!”

“When did I say that this ordeal is a standard challenge?”

“….”

At my words, the twins blinked their eyes and looked at me.

what is he saying now?

A face like that.

“What are you talking about…?”

“Originally, human psychology is such that once you eat something raw, you want to eat it raw until the end.”

My words opened the twins’ mouths. The two of them rolled their eyes as if they were overloaded for a while….

“Please don’t…Again? Oh no, is it impossible? Did we make it ourselves? Eating this raw is absolutely impossible….”

“Look forward!”

I smiled broadly at the two who struggled to deny reality. Then, without hesitation, he threw himself into the portal.

“Wait a minute! challenger! What the hell are you talking about! Talk and go!”

“I’m anxious. Mecht! What is that cowardly challenger trying to do?!”

No matter what the twins said, their voices gradually faded away.

and fell

endlessly.

towards the distant past.

* * *

“…hmm.”

When I came to my senses, I was lying aimlessly on a pile of grass.

The feel of the grass that you feel, the strength of the wind gently scratching your face….

It looks real.

Even though I know that this is not reality and that it is just a fantasy that reproduces the distant past.

“Fantastic performance for sure.”

Certainly, at this level, it deserves to be called an apostle.

After checking it roughly, this place looked like a forest that reproduced somewhere in the past.

‘first….’

But then.

“…human?”

A voice that did not seem to have any cold emotions was heard in my ears.

I turned my head.

Then I saw green hair blowing in the wind. Contrary to my memory, it was darker and thicker.

I knew right away who it was.

No matter how cold the attitude and unfamiliar voice, the unique atmosphere was still the same….

yes it was a set
