I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 313

# After returning, the family was ruined (314)

The forces of the demon dragon and the monarch collided.

Even the ninth palace, known to be the strongest, could not withstand the momentum of the two. The huge palace was slowly collapsing. The impact of the conflict also reached the remaining eight palaces.

The dragons of the palace began to flock to the shock that spread like an earthquake. But no one came close. That was the same even for the Guardians, known as the elite of the elite.

The closer it got, the more it got caught up in the momentum of the two and split into six pieces. At best, the high-ranking dragons are being divided in a fight for momentum.

Everyone was speechless as they saw this for the first time in their lives. A ruler who rebelled. If the monarch fails to stop the demon dragon, the ruler of Dragonia will change. Originally, it would have been normal to stop the demon dragon, but now the situation was different.

The demon dragon was not something that could be stopped by the royal forces. The fuse started to burn quickly. The only person who could solve this problem was the monarch.

Some quick-witted people began to retreat one by one.

It reminded me of the aftermath after those two beings collided head-on.

If we were really unlucky, the shock could have been enough to shake the capital. Staying in this position was practically suicidal.

The guardians did not stop the retreating dragons. It would have been disloyal to watch and die without meaning to prove one’s loyalty.

The standoff lasted longer than expected. The reason was simple. This was because the demon dragon, who was supposed to rush in, began to hesitate.

‘…How on earth did this happen…’

When the first two forces collided, the demon dragon was confident of victory. As initially expected, it was because his momentum was superior. Compared to the enormous energy that covered the entire palace, the monarch’s energy was pitifully small and weak.

The years spent on the West Continent.

The demon dragon never wasted those years. Not only did he surpass the realm of absolute perfection, but through numerous researches, he accumulated an amount of mana in his body that exceeded the limits of living creatures.

Momentum is made up of mana.

Even if there was a qualitative difference, it was enough to just put it in terms of quantity. That’s why I was confident of victory.

However, contrary to what was expected, the monarch’s spirit did not fade at all even after the conflict.

Rather, it was engulfing me with a small energy, as if it were a contagious disease. No matter how much mana was poured, the result did not change. That meant one thing. The monarch’s mana is overwhelmingly higher than his own in terms of quality.

And that is to the point where it cannot be solved with just the quantity. It was like saying that the monarch’s skills were infinitely superior to his own.

It was ridiculous.

It was also a completely different result than expected. That’s why the demon dragon did not attack the monarch.

No, I couldn’t run.

Because I realized something was wrong. A variable has been created. It’s such a big variable that I don’t know if I can handle it.

‘…The monarch’s discipline was like this?’

When we first advanced into the Western Continent. The monarch was not yet at the absolute level. It was the same for me too.

I thought that if I had equally grown to the absolute level, I would have a much greater advantage in terms of the amount of mana that would be incomparable.

Fundamentally, this assumption included the premise that the qualitative difference in mana was not significant.

It’s natural. How big would the qualitative difference be if you trained for at most ten years?

Even if there is a difference, it will be enough to just quantify it. That was the reason why the demon dragon was so confident. Since the great premise has been shattered, my feet have no choice but to stand still like hardened mud.

At that time…

I felt the monarch’s clear eyes.

-Didn’t I tell you, Lucreon? Your essence is still the same.

[…!]

The demon dragon’s heart throbbed loudly.

The cowardly monarch’s words seemed to hit my ears like thunder. The corners of my mouth twitched.

But I couldn’t refute those words. In order to deny that sale, I shouldn’t have crouched down like a coward like this.

-That temper is still the same now.

[…don’t judge me lightly.]

?I can see your fear. But it was late. Time is not something you can turn back at will.

The demon dragon gritted his teeth.

It was clear that Draksis was trying to shake him up. The more you lose your cool over such a trivial remark, the closer the outcome will be to the worst.

[Hehe. Are you going to claim that you won everything with just one clash of momentum?]

That’s right. I have to admit it. I thought it was a toothless beast, but guess what? It was as if he was hiding a lot of blades sharper than saw blades under his throat. The monarch was much stronger than he thought. That didn’t mean the fight was over. I was just surprised by something unexpected. If you crouch because of one variable, you will face the worst possible outcome.

The demon dragon came to his senses.

Both fists began to erode into black. It was wrapped in so much evil magic that it could cause one to vomit blood and die just by brushing against it. The monarch who saw this said quietly.

?I see, you have surpassed the absolute state with lies.

[…What?]

?Did you think that if you squeezed out countless lives, you could truly reach the absolute state?

The demon dragon flinched. This was because the monarch’s words penetrated to the core, as if he had read his essence.

– Well, it was a strange thing. The innate talent given to you was, at best, only at the stage of transcendence.

How dare you limit yourself to the old man in the back room.

The demon dragon’s eyes turned red. He’s just an old man who uses his memories as food to keep his mouth shut. There was no need for further conversation. Time around me began to pass infinitely slowly. The Demon Dragon’s new form glided towards the monarch at incredible speed.

A weight class that is more than double the difference.

The demon dragon jumped up with all his might. His whole body swelled as if it would explode. The muscles that had been compressed and compressed gave out all their strength in an instant.

A fist filled with morale was shot at the monarch’s head. It was a punch with such force that even a high-ranking minister would have his head exploded in an instant. The monarch was unable to respond in any significant way until the fist came so close.

Joy flashed in the demon dragon’s eyes.

It was an offensive that compressed and condensed the death energy of countless living things. Even if he were the Absolute, he couldn’t survive after being hit on the head by this attack. It was a blow that was confident in its power. When my fist got close to my temple.

The demon dragon felt light. It feels like the weight of one arm has completely disappeared. The demon dragon turned his head. Before he knew it, a huge sword had passed over his shoulder. Incontinence was seen to be drawn. The flow of fraud that had been pumped to its limit was cut off in an instant. The arm, which seemed as if it would immediately reach its destination, was soaring in the air.

The heavy sword showed more agile movements than anything else, even in the slow passage of time. Before he knew it, the sharp blade of the sword was piercing his heart. The astonished demon dragon hurriedly sent mana towards the heart. A strong mana membrane blocked the bone sword. The collision lasted for a moment…

the mana shattered like a glass window. The bone sword that pierced the skin and bones without even having a protective shield began to radiate the monarch’s energy. I felt a tingling pain around my heart. The demon dragon vomited out a handful of dead blood and quickly retreated.

The monarch did not chase the demon dragon. Just stare blankly. The calm gaze that seemed to be looking at an inanimate object sent goosebumps all over the Demon Dragon’s body. I realized it instinctively. If the monarch had not had mercy in his hands, a bone sword would have been stabbed in his heart before he had struck his head.

The demon dragon’s body stiffened from the rising fear.

‘…what?’

After entering the realm of absoluteness. His time used to pass differently from other beings. It was because the movement was so fast. A state where the movement itself is no different from forming an area.

A power that cannot even be compared to transcendence. That’s why the demon dragon was confident of victory. However, the collision just now made me realize one thing.

Dragonlord.

The author’s movements…

were completely different from his own.

It seemed like it was using mana, sometimes it wasn’t. The movements were quiet and secretive. There was almost no sign of it.

And yet.

The speed itself was on a completely different level compared to himself, who was pouring out as much mana as he could. Even in the absolute state, all you can do is barely respond.

I was even more afraid because I couldn’t understand. I feel like the Daegye that I have dreamed of my whole life will come to an end today. The demon dragon gritted his teeth and let the accumulated mana flow to his limbs. The severed arm took its proper shape in an instant. Bone and flesh filled the torn chest. Only then did I come to my senses a little.

[How did you get that kind of power…]

?Didn’t I tell you that I lied and overstepped my bounds?

[…False?]

?The absolute source is not life force.

Wow!

The demon dragon bit his lip.

We gathered the living creatures of the Western Continent and squeezed out their source endlessly. The accumulated power helped him advance to new heights. The monarch’s words were tantamount to denying all of his actions.

[…So you… are the true Absolute?]

?At least I didn’t do anything to deceive my body like you did.

The demon dragon gritted his teeth. He was looking into my condition as if he were looking into the palm of his hand. A faint sense of despair covered my eyes.

It was only a one-time clash at best, but it was because they instinctively realized that they could not defeat the monarch. The difference in rank that separates the superhuman from the transcendent. There was a difference in rank between himself and the monarch that could be called distant.

Power was assessed incorrectly. It was a fatal mistake. Or, to put it another way, it would be good to say that the monarch’s actions were that cunning. It was no different from having ignored the situation for a long time while possessing that kind of power.

Resignation for a moment.

The demon dragon, revealing its red pupils, shouted.

[Why… were you silent even though you had that kind of power?]

If only you hadn’t been silent.

If only I had spread the word that I was in good health. No one would have taken the position of monarch. The West Continent would also have fallen into the hands of the Dragon Clan much faster.

That’s why the demon dragon couldn’t understand. Why on earth did I spend so many years feeling like I was dead even though I had that much power?

Just then…

Draksis answered.
