I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 262

#When I returned, the family was ruined (263)

The shadow widened its eyes.

Shadow worshipers’ power ‘melt.’ The manifestation of power was bound to vary depending on the level of the dragon race.

Naturally, his power as a ruler, the highest level, was refined to the limit.

The time required for transfer is only a moment, and it can move without a trace, and it does not make it vulnerable while moving.

This powerful power was the power that made the shadow the ruler. Being able to rise up behind the target’s shadow.

No one could block the five sharp claws flying from behind. The same was true for higher-level entities, such as transcendents.

Because it was an offensive that was more stealthy than air, faster than thunder, and as sharp as the Ardenheit.

So far, countless creatures have been killed.

That’s why the shadow was confident.

The duke was completely oblivious to the surveillance gaze, and as if heaven was helping him, he moved to a place where no one was around and his vital activity seemed to be deeply subdued, as if he was in a state of deep meditation.

Are there better conditions for assassination than these? Nevertheless, the shadow endured and endured. Just because it’s a good-looking rice cake, if you swallow it in one bite, you’re bound to get sick.

The moment I was finally convinced that it was perfect, I moved right away. He lightly dug into the pitch-black shadow behind the Duke and lashed out with his fingernails.

Red blood will burst out.

The shadow was sure.

No matter how good you are at flying and crawling, you can’t be in a tense state at every moment.

It was a law that even a transcendental person could not escape. All living things need to rest, consciously or unconsciously.

But it got stuck.

And so easily.

The corners of a person’s mouth smiling coolly caught my eye.

“You got caught.”

-…what?

The shadow’s instinct sounded a warning. That one word had numerous meanings.

‘…Surely it was a trap?’

Since when did you know you existed? Was the reason you moved to a deserted place to tempt yourself?

It’s disadvantageous.

It was something that could not be helped due to the nature of the assassin. When the other person does not notice your presence. A surprise attack at the most vulnerable moment was the most powerful attack method an assassin could launch. In fact, it is no exaggeration to say that the victory of the battle depends on the first offensive.

The shadow did not have the hard exterior like a tyrant, the crazy rampage like a disaster, or the power of words like a demonic dragon. Of course, because he is the ruler, he has powers beyond the basics.

In the end, he was just a warrior who fell within the category of ‘assassin’.

It’s time to step back.

In a forest that was burning everywhere, a shadow spread mana. Any ‘life’ within a radius of 1km could burrow into the shadow.

In that sense, melting was a very good escape. Although the surrounding area is burning, all living things may not have been completely exterminated.

That’s what the shadow decided. But it didn’t take long to realize that it was a misjudgment.

‘…does not exist.’

there’s nothing. The strong fire burned all living things within its radius. The means to widen the distance had disappeared. The duke saw this and asked with a cold smile.

“Are you trying to run away?”

―….

Boom!

bang!

Before he could even reply, the divine sword flew in all directions. A sword strike so quick that it looks like an illusion.

The shadow’s hand moved. Ten nails clashed with the blade and made a cackling noise.

Each sword strike was too heavy. Since the entire sword body was made of Ardenheite and it was a great sword, it was inevitable that it would be inferior in strength. The new form of shadow was pushed back frantically.

“Your grave is here.”

His words were filled with confidence.

The shadow frowned upon seeing Ethan.

-You… how did you know?

“Isn’t it strange that you don’t know something when you show it off like that?”

―This… cheeky….

“Your friend said that too. Then they buried the bones. “Maybe because they are the same ruler, their attitudes are very similar.”

-no way…!

The shadow was astonished.

There is only one ruler who has recently died.

tyrant.

Are you saying that the person in front of you is the person who killed the tyrant?

If I had heard this before the assassination attempt, I might have laughed it off.

But now my fingernails are lightly clogged.

‘…He’s a dangerous guy.’

The shadow had an intuition.

From the bloody momentum to the expert swordsmanship and the enormous flames that burn the surroundings.

Even if he were the ruler, this person was someone he could not ignore.

Push!

The blade grazed the shadow’s face. Dragon’s blood splattered everywhere.

I’m being pushed back.

The human was one step faster than him, was sharper, and contained murderous intent in every single blow. Every time the nails clashed with the sword, which was burning with white flame, ten nails were seen breaking off little by little.

‘How can he have this kind of power…’

Even though he was a shadow with abilities focused on assassination, he was also a ruler.

A body with overwhelming power given to dragons.

Naturally, he himself had physical conditions that were several times superior to that of humans.

Still, it gets pushed back.

Poorly.

What’s more problematic is.

It was true that human shadows had disappeared thanks to the pure white flames that had begun to burn down the entire forest.

Now, it is no longer possible to launch a surprise attack. The situation was getting worse.

“You’re still watching.”

-…what?

“Wouldn’t it be better to use your last power and then die?”

-How could you do that…!

The shadow let out a roar as if it had been stabbed in the lungs. Hibernation and melting. In addition to the two powers, the shadow had one more power. However, it was a power that was rarely shown.

This was because it was a technique that guaranteed a sacrifice that would reduce one’s overall strength. It is a power that cannot be used unless death is truly imminent.

All rulers were bound to have one of these powers. However, that last power was not shared even among the same rulers. Who would want to reveal their last move?

In that sense, the Duke’s words struck right into the shadow’s heart.

How does he even know that fact? Did you notice that when you killed the tyrant?

He must have used his last power right before he died.

The shadow’s composure was slowly broken like a cracked window. The guy was urging him to use his powers. It wouldn’t matter if it was pride, but what if it wasn’t pride?

It’s probably not possible.

What if that person knew what his final power was?

‘…shit.’

The moment I used my power, I had to be prepared to lose at least 20% of my power. The saying was 20%, but it was not surprising if the balance of power among the rulers collapsed at once.

The shadow regretted for a moment.

I didn’t even have time to organize my complicated brain. The wounds continued to increase and there was no escape direction at all. The pressure from the knight was so strong that it was suffocating.

He reigned in the position of ruler for a long time. That may be why I naturally let my guard down.

…It should have been a disaster.

“Perseverance, do you still think there is hope?”

―….

“What do you like?”

The feeling of extreme superiority contained in the words. That person was treating him inferiorly. I felt moved.

However, the moment the next scene was revealed, the shadow could no longer continue such thoughts. The outer shell that began to cover the entire human body. Even the outer shell… belonged to a compatriot who had been facing it for a very long time.

Conclusive proof that the tyrant met his death by that human sword. Human transformation did not end there. The shape formed by the mana that exploded from within the body

was… the arm of a tyrant that I had seen for a long time.

“Then die.”

The sword was swung with a cold word. Although it was fast just a moment ago, it was clearly visible.

This time was different. The skin bristled with an eerie force. A very swift blow.

Suddenly!

Both arms were simply cut off, like a lizard’s tail. It was only then that I saw it. It was not only cutting off both arms like a great sword splitting head, but also rushing towards the heart. There was no time to continue my thoughts any longer.

The instinct engraved in my body made my heart beat faster. Soon darkness fell throughout the burning forest.

It was so pitch black that not even a ray of light could enter.

* * *

‘I finally used it.’

Ethan sneered quietly in the darkness, unable to see an inch in front of him. He also knew about the shadow’s final power. This was because I had seen it used in the last battle in my previous life.

‘tent.’

It was his power.

Darkness and assassination. Is there any other word that fits better than this? Its power not only completely covers a certain area with darkness…

‘Now.’

I swung my sword.

I felt a heavy shock. Still, I couldn’t feel anything. No, to be more precise, my five senses have become blurred. As if my limbs were paralyzed.

Mana was spread.

I felt a shape. It is of the shadow. The two arms that had been cut off moments ago were taking shape at an incredibly fast pace. What collided with the sword were both newly regenerated arms.

The second effect of the veil.

It dulls the senses of the living being inside. It is powerful enough to completely paralyze the five senses of an ordinary transcendental person.

The third benefit is.

The entire body was regenerating as seen before one’s eyes. It was able to reconstruct its body using the darkness within the veil. Infinitely as long as the darkness does not disappear. As it was the last power, it was a power with powerful efficacy.

A power that is no different from that of a tyrant. Of course, in return, he loses his vitality, which is the source of life, at every moment.

The reason Ethan encouraged the use of the tent was simple. When you get the Tyrant’s Mantle. As he died while using his power, I obtained a very high quality item.

‘It’s no different from a shadow.’

There was a lot to be gained from him too. Even the outer skin and blood organs. If he analyzed everything thoroughly, he didn’t know if he would be able to utilize ‘melting’ as well.

Even if that’s not the case, it’s as if a shadow can completely kill a presence.

You might be able to put your presence into hibernation as well.

It would not be impossible to not only analyze the shadows within the veil but also obtain a body fully imbued with power.

“Go for it.”

As the vibration continued, each strand of mana began to boil. Finally, the pure white flame completely engulfed my entire body. An immortal, deathless flame surrounded Ethan’s body.
