mage who transcends by regression Episode 13
Dirge is a good spirit.
A really good spirit.
Dirge had no doubt that he was an incredibly kind spirit.
Why?
Because the owner said it was good!
And the master entrusted such a great responsibility to Dirge.
It’s called digging a hole in the ground!
All you have to do is dig a tunnel by diligently following the blueprint!
Digging was one of Dirge’s favorite things to do, so Dirge had fun digging.
Dig and dig again.
Digging again… ….
digging… ….
kept digging I dug so hard that I couldn’t tell if my arms were soil or arms.
are you okay!
Because the owner made it.
I can’t let my master do bad things! It’s no wonder that the owner made Dirge!
Ammut, a colleague next to me, just tapped Dirji with a pitying expression whenever he said such a thing, but it didn’t matter.
After all, a spirit is a being that is not bound by time. Of course, Dudge was just having fun.
It’s a job I like, and it’s even what the owner wants!
‘Digging is fun!’
With that thought in mind, Dirge dug diligently. And how much did it dig?
Occasionally digging the ground will reveal unidentified objects that have been buried.
It could be a simple junk or an ancient treasure.
Dirge and Ammit collected a lot of things by digging.
But that day… ….
What Dirge found that day was different from usual.
“What is this?”
Dirge tapped his dainty feet and observed ‘it’.
It was just a little bit, but it was contained in a glass bottle of the same size, and it had a strange red color. According to Dirge’s impression… ….
‘Looks delicious!’
Yes.
It seemed delicious. Just looking at it, it feels like strawberry juice.
I remember the owner once giving it to me to try.
“Hyungjae!”
It’s a windfall. But in any case, Dirge danced to celebrate this great fortune, even with her lack of language skills.
Then he hurriedly ran, carefully removed the stopper from the glass bottle, and took a sip.
“Delicious!”
“What else are you drinking?”
Ammut, who was assisting Dirge from behind, approached and asked.
And as soon as his gaze turned to the vial Dirge was sipping, Ammut exclaimed in amazement.
“Hey hey! Someone told me not to just roll around! If you pick it up and eat it, it’s Jiji, Jiji!”
“Delicious!”
Dirge screamed desperately, holding the vial dearly.
“I will drink more!”
“No what…?! It says something more than that… ….”
A letter engraved on the place where the glass bottle was placed.
Looking at it, Ammut tilted her head.
“…< The Berserker's Potion >?”
“Ugh.”
and that moment.
The moment Ammut uttered the name ‘potion’, Dirge changed in a very subtle way.
The dainty body expanded.
“Ugh.”
gradually.
– Ooh oh oh oh!
Dodge got stronger.
And Ammut, who was watching from the side, was stunned at the formidable phenomenon.
“What the hell!”
Even if you can’t do it, you’ve become 30 times stronger!
Ammut hurriedly secured the glass vial of the remaining Berserker’s Potion and sweated profusely.
“It’s more, is it okay?! Are you okay?!”
I don’t know what it is, but it’s strange.
It’s not just about getting stronger, it’s about changing the species!
This didn’t seem like something, so Ammut asked for confirmation.
But at that moment, Dirge was going through a process of change.
‘Why am I digging a tunnel?’
‘Why isn’t the owner looking for me?’
‘Who am I.’
‘Who is at fault.’
An excessively rapid change of heart.
and the result.
– I’m fine girl.
“Cow girl?!”
What did he eat wrong? Why is he suddenly like this?
‘Ah, I ate something wrong.’
Ammut, quickly convinced, is about to ask again.
Dirge said with a twinkle in her eyes.
– I will take revenge!
And that’s how we got to the current situation five minutes before the opening.
* * *
* Summary:
Dirge came after eating an unknown potion and evolving into darkness.
“…hmm.”
I nodded my head involuntarily at the concise summary.
Berserker’s potion or something.
why the hell did you eat that?
‘No, more than that.’
Anyway, how did Dirji change like that?
Dark evolution model answer.
It is enough to make you sigh just by looking at it. Do you honestly feel that your life is in danger?
at that time.
– Master, I will ask.
“Dir.G, did you throw away the concept?”
Dirge said with a solemn expression and voice.
– Forget the weak me of the past.
“….”
– Organisms tend to grow. I grew up one step through the incident of my master’s betrayal.
“Uh that…Strictly speaking, this isn’t betrayal, is it? Since we have not yet reached the ‘consequence’ of betrayal, we are still on the way to betrayal… ….”
– Don’t make fun of me, master!
Wow!
Dirge’s wrath caused a fierce storm to rage across the area.
Dirge roared pitifully, his bright red eyes dripping, and shouted again.
– Bonamana ‘I’ll be sure to pick you up again.’ I must have thought not to look for it while talking the same thing!
“Oh no!”
– I’m not PX2, Master!
“P-X-Two, where the hell did you learn that word…!”
That’s a word you shouldn’t say!
However, Deoji, who was already crooked, was unstoppable.
– plural!
Dirge shouted, thrusting out his large, beautiful twin swords.
– Give me that lowly neck!
“….”
Right now, Dirge is literally full of thoughts of separating my flesh from my bones alive.
‘I’m exhausted.’
Now is the moment when I need my high intelligence reaching the 10th circle.
The conclusion came quickly.
“< Teleport >.”
Let’s bounce first.
Of course, I wasn’t the only one missing, and Wise and the warrior were also present.
Whoop!
In an instant, the scenery changes.
“…That should be enough.”
Long distance teleport.
Even if you can’t do it, you’ve reached the distance you have to walk for three days, so Dirge won’t be able to chase you for a while.
‘I don’t think Dirge’s condition will last forever anyway.’
I know a little about < The Berserker's Potion >.
An elixir that instantly possesses strength beyond the limit for those who drink it, and at the same time makes their temper violent.
I know it was made in a few bottles in ancient times, apparently because of its effectiveness, but I never thought Dirge would find it.
“Time is on our side.”
All you have to do is run away with the teleport. There’s no reason to make a fuss around him for taking a berserker’s potion due to his personality.
“Even if I just keep my distance from Dirge while leisurely buying time like this….”
But at that moment.
Kwagwagwagwa!
Isn’t something starting to rush in like crazy from far away?
– Jooeeeein!
“crazy.”
What is that!
It must have been a long-distance teleport, but when the hell did it get here!
This is unavoidable.
“Ahhh < Meteor (Deterioration) >!”
With moderately deteriorated Meteor, we contain the rushing Dirge… …!
– Destroy!
“No crazy!”
Aaaaaang!
However, even Meteor, who was summoned like that, was split as it was by the twin swords that jumped up violently.
At that moment, I started running.
“What is that! What!”
[It’s karma, it’s karma.]
“Shouldn’t you have looked for it right away?”
Alternate talking set and wise.
Fragmented meteorites devastated the plains and filled the area with dust.
But in the meantime.
“Those eyes! Eye color!”
Dirge’s red eyes, clearly visible through the dust. He was filled with the determination that he would surely kill me.
– Jooeeeein!
Through the dust, Dirge started to advance frantically toward me.
really a moment.
Despite the doping effect of < The Berserker's Potion >, could Dirge’s potential be this much?
Dirge reached right in front of him.
– It’s Judgment Time!
‘ruined!’
No matter how much it is, there are sins committed, and magic is also sealed, so it has become like this!
“Yes, you cannot become a hero and violate your conscience….”
[No, now?]
Set said with a puzzled expression.
“Are you not even aware that you have no conscience to say that?”
Wise also shook his head. But what do you mean? Still, I must keep my last conscience.
It’s true that I haven’t found it for a while, but I can’t beat it like a dog to wake up… ….
Then Dirge shouted.
– Say ‘I’m sorry’ to the owner!
“Yes?”
– I’m sorry!
Dirge looked at me with an angry expression to the limit and said that. Of course, I was thinking of apologizing.
“I’m sorry…do?”
– I’ll take it!
“…?”
Didn’t Dirge, who was very irritable at that moment, put down the twin swords without hesitation?
Looking for something, Dirge spoke again with an infinitely serious expression.
– Do you know the owner?! People should apologize!
“Oh that’s right.”
– Yes, sorry… …apologize….
As he spoke, Dirge’s large body slowly began to shrink, as if the wind had deflated.
then soon
pop!
With a voice, the guy who returned to the image of Dirge I remember confidently reached out his hand.
“Zuin!”
“…uh yes.”
It wouldn’t have been strange if he had killed me, since he had taken the < Berserker's Potion > as well, nothing else… ….
“haha.”
Dirge seems to be Dirge after all.
* * *
“Zuin….”
Dirge, who had grown sullen after being struck by a bout of lightning, quietly lowered his head and shook his head.
“face…doesn’t exist.”
Saying that, Dirge’s body was limp. Even if it was a doping effect, it seemed that he was very concerned about the threat to me.
“No, to put it bluntly, I am the cause.”
Honestly, if I’m 100, I’m 100 wrong.
Even if I don’t have a conscience, I’m aware of that much.
“You can hit it if you feel sad. You deserve it.”
When I say hit me now, it’s never because I think it won’t hurt if I hit it now.
yes never
At my words, the other guys looked at me with even more trashy looks, but I averted their gaze.
“no….”
Dirge shook his head.
Then he stood up from his seat and looked up at the sky with a vain expression.
“life….”
“….”
“Desperate. I was digging, but when I came to my senses, I threatened the owner with a knife.”
“Uh that…okay.”
Why do you think I’m wrong the more he talks? I don’t get discouraged so easily, but I get frustrated with Dirge… ….
Then Dirge came up to me with a splash and spoke cautiously.
“Zuin.”
“Okay.”
“There is something I was worried about.”
Dirge looked at me for a moment with bright eyes. Then, uncharacteristically, he looked worried, then opened his mouth slightly.
“Ask for life advice.”
“…hmm?”
suddenly?
When I looked at him with those eyes, Dirge said to me with an expression that promised something important.
“I want to be independent!”
“…?!”
It was a very important commitment.
