The Grand Mage who transcends by regression Episode 26
3 years ago, the Demon God, who was the source of all demons, was destroyed at the hands of the hero Mikhail.
Unfortunately, not all demons were annihilated with the annihilation of the Demon God.
And among those who survived, there were those who crouched in hopes of the impossible return of the god.
There was also a kind of attacking people, albeit faintly, in order to somehow spread their malice to the world.
Of course, all the high-ranking demons have been annihilated, and all the rampaging ones are mediocre.
In any case, it was a threat to the common people who didn’t know how to wield swords as well as magic… ….
And a land buried in darkness somewhere in the world.
“Ha ha ha ha ha…!”
There was an indescribable sound of laughter resounding from there.
Who, if not the devil, would emit such an ominous and terrible laugh.
“Finally cloned! I finally succeeded… …!”
The devil looked at his result with eyes wet with joy.
Everyone has nightmares.
And after a lot of patience, he finally succeeded in replicating the hero’s true nightmare… ….
“Hero, Mikhail Walpurgis!”
The devil shouted and held out the sword in his hand.
Gorgeous armor, golden hair blowing in the wind, beautiful appearance.
“Now the time has come to pay the price for daring to drop a god…!”
Of course, the limit was to implement barely more than half of the power of ‘Nightmare’ due to lack of competence, but it didn’t matter.
Is it a warrior’s nightmare for nothing?
The devil believed that the nightmare he had embodied would be able to destroy the hero.
It barely exceeds half of its strength, but it’s still a ‘nightmare’ for a reason.
“Be prepared, warrior…!”
The demon Janus shouted and vowed revenge.
Saying that, he now took on the form of Siegfried before the return of the hero, who was no longer in this world.

“What?”
What is the unknown anger that boils in the depths of this heart?
Now all the anger would have been released.
Lian, who was watching quietly, asked me sneakily.
“What happened again, is it dead?”
“I do not know.”
I just feel a little bit like that.
I replied and looked around. It took some time to confirm exactly where this place was thanks to the excessive use of space movement magic 10 times in a row.
Eileen looked around and opened her mouth.
“I don’t think it’s an empire for now.”
“surely….”
Even if you look around right now, even the plants and animals that grew up are far from the Empire.
If so, where is it?
“I’m not sure, but from the climate and vegetation, it looks like a small Ilkhan kingdom located in the western part of the Empire.”
“It’s a small kingdom of Ilkhan….”
I’ve heard of it.
The empire was so huge that it engulfed most of the continent, so that doesn’t mean there weren’t other kingdoms within the continent.
no, rather a lot.
It is a country where small countries are attached to the outside of the empire.
“Still, I managed to take less damage. If it’s the western part of the empire… …Isn’t it the place where demons were infested a few years ago?”
“Yes, by the way, in the case of the small kingdom of Ilkhan, it was a place that had a fairly close relationship with the religious state.”
Eileen continued.
“One of the royal families of the small kingdom of Ilkhan is currently serving as the Archbishop of the Church. I heard that you can respond quickly to the situation thanks to that.”
“hmm….”
“Oh, of course, the church government didn’t forcefully support it. The royal family was competent, and the small Ilkhan kingdom responded well to what he said.”
That’s fortunate.
In fact, at the time of the annihilation of the demons, various types of talented people were active all over the continent, and thanks to that, the damage was minimized.
It was the result of running around so that my feet were sweating.
Each of those things became a butterfly effect and made the talented people who would have been ruined survive and become active.
“Anyway, that means that if you walk diligently from here, you can reach Kyoguk.”
“Yes, but…Can we walk for a while?”
“I will.”
At my words, Eileen looked at me with an idiotic expression.
“Where did you leave the space movement magic that you used so desperately until just now?”
“But magic is fun and not cool….”
“Ah yes, you said you couldn’t use it anymore because you were afraid that His Excellency the Marquis would find out? I roughly understood.”
“….”
How did he understand me so well? Even if you talk like a dog, I can understand you perfectly.
“If anyone sees it, they will know that the criminal who committed the high treason is hiding somewhere. No, why does the hero who saved the world live like this?”
“I don’t know either….”
I don’t even understand myself. Why is the guy who saved the world living so desperately?
Well, this must be the karma of Walpurgis.
By the time I arrived at the city in the small kingdom, trembling in agony.
“What is this again?”
Isn’t the state of the city busier than I thought?
Looking at passers-by, they all had thick dark circles under their eyes, as if they hadn’t slept.
“They’re all in bad shape.”
Wise also clicked his tongue slightly as he saw those passers-by. Then, he suddenly tilted his head.
“Wait, Mikhail.”
“hmm?”
“They…Don’t you feel something familiar?”
At that, I raised my head and took a moderate look at the energy around me.
and the result.
“surely….”
Although it was faint, I could feel a shallow spread of unpleasant aura.
It’s not overwhelming like the great devil of the past, but anyway, the devil’s energy is the devil’s energy.
never a good thing
Of course, ‘dangerous’ demons do not exist after the disappearance of demons.
How can you be sure of that?
That’s right, those who would have received the demon’s power to the extent of being dangerous would have all perished along with the demon.
It is such a system.
If so, what exactly is the ‘type’ of the devil in this problem, considering it as a half-way guy?
“A doppelganger?”
“No, rather…He seems to be the one who deals with ‘nightmares’, but maybe his rank is higher than I thought.”
I corrected Wise’s words and clicked my tongue briefly.
I feel like the poor condition of the passers-by right now is also connected to these things.
“If it’s spread this much, there’s no way the royal family didn’t notice it.”
“This is true.”
It’s just a place I arrived by chance, but it’s always in a bad condition.
“Of course, it seems like a problem that can be solved by leaving it alone. If it’s enough to act like this, it’s a problem that can be solved on the Gyokguk line.”
“It is, but….”
Even if you see the traces of the devil right in front of your eyes, you can’t leave it unattended.
[If it’s the devil who handles Mikhail’s ‘Nightmare’… …Wouldn’t it be difficult?]
“Hmm?”
[If the demon in question could materialize the nightmare of an existence like you….]
“Hmm.”
Again, this is not incorrect.
It’s definitely not wrong.
“It’s materialization, it’s nabal, and you just have to break your head in the face, so why are you trying to go back?”
[…] ….]
“It’s a nightmare anyway, and even the Great Devil won’t be able to reproduce the demon. Then it’s the second priority… ….”
Although he is a bit afraid, it is not a nightmare. After all, he is not our father.
Then what’s left.
“That bastard before the return…There’s only Siegfried left, right?”
[…] …Um.]
“Even if I don’t know about the other guy, I’m confident that I can beat him. Rather come out.”
It was my regret that I hadn’t beaten him in the face before returning, but isn’t this the perfect opportunity to hit him?
rather good
Set, who tilted his head for a moment, asked me cautiously.
[By the way, Mikhail?]
“Why?”
[that…If the devil in this problem tries to do something with you in the form of ‘Siegfried’… …It won’t run too fast, right?]
“Hmm.”
Siegfried.
Certainly, before the return, I despised and hated Siegfried’s incompetence.
Wasn’t Lian, before the immediate return, a victim of such Siegfried’s arbitrariness?
Perhaps the day will never come when I will forgive Siegfried in the true sense of ‘before the return’.
but.
“Why?”
That’s right after the return.
Now I feel that I have grown enough to not be swayed by such things.
“And looking at it now, I wonder if the current Siegfried side would go berserk the moment they saw him.”
[Ah.]
“I’d rather erase it before he gets involved.”
Still, it’s a prize for growing up differently than before returning.
Such care can be provided.
“The conclusion has been reached.”
Lian, who had been listening to the conversation, interjected and said.
“Wouldn’t it be George?”
“I like that simple mindset.”
That’s what hunting demons means. First of all, the idea of breaking the devil’s head and starting.
So what should I do now?
“Guys, our destination is….”
“Right.”
Before I could finish my words, Lian suddenly nodded in understanding and said,
“good. understood.”
“What did you understand?”
Do they understand what I said and get upset?
what the hell did i say
“are you okay. I understand your heart clearly. Let’s handle it well.”
“…huh?”
I don’t know what it is, but first of all, Lian decided to look at something.
And a few minutes after that.
“Oops!”
The king of the small kingdom of Ilkhan ran desperately with a gag in his mouth.
Eyes like those of a deer caught by a hunter… ….
“Oops! Ugh!”
“How are you sure?”
Lian pointed at the king with peaceful eyes and said.
“Isn’t this what you said?”
“….”
no what bullshit
A friend I met after many years was more radical than I thought.
* * *
King Leo II of the small kingdom of Ilkhan.
He was a sage who safely protected the kingdom from the hell three years ago and ruled peacefully.
Of course, recently he was suffering from an unexpected disaster that hit the kingdom, but he had a plan to solve it… ….
He did not stop worrying about the people today and was engrossed in his work.
…no.
“Oh! town!”
…There should have been.
Leo II couldn’t believe it.
How could he, the owner of a country, be kidnapped like this in broad daylight!
How outrageous is this!
Leo II glared fiercely at his captors.
I don’t know exactly who he is, but as the king of a country, he will never be defeated.
This belief was as firm as it was.
‘Let’s do whatever we want!’
There will be no loss of spirit as a king!
It was the moment when I checked the kidnappers with that thought.
“No, it’s ten years old!”
“Cuck!”
The assailant who had just appeared out of nowhere and kidnapped him flew through the air with a knee-kick in the throat.
The one who fanned the assailant was a young man with blonde hair and red eyes.
“I said to kill the devil. Where did you say to overthrow the state?!”
“Yes, you are good at it!”
The monster screamed in agony.
“If you’ve been doing that every day until now, why are you acting like a normal person all of a sudden!”
“I have always been normal!”
“Don’t talk bullshit! As I remember, you said you were destroying the source of demons and started by destroying the capital?!”
“….”
Leo II watched the gag, forgetting even the spirited look in his eyes.
And soon I realized
‘Wait, isn’t that Grand Master Sir Lian Paslov?’
Moreover, when he turned his head to the side, the young man who kicked Ryan….
‘The brave Sir Mikhail Walpurgis?’
Wasn’t it none other than the rumored warrior?
Leo II, who had been watching the scene quietly, thought involuntarily.
‘What kind of trick, really.’
What is it really?
