I Regressed to My Ruined Family Chapter 238

#When I returned, my family was ruined (239)

Ethan, who bought the printed matter from a delivery man walking around the main street, looked at the contents. It seemed like everything was written speculatively, including the assassination of lawmakers and who was behind it. Whoever was pointed out as the mastermind was different, but there was one thing in common.

The story was that the assassin would be an extreme expert who had reached the level of transcendence.

While I was looking at some printed materials, I heard Bbangi’s voice.

―Master, aren’t you overdoing it?

There was a lot of worry in Bbangi’s question. Not even a day had passed since the duke’s life-or-death struggle with the tyrant, and he was traveling around the Dwarven Kingdom dealing with lawmakers.

In the Sword Spirit’s opinion, it was an extremely ignorant schedule.

Although it has incredible resilience for a human body, it did not win the battle against the tyrant without any sacrifice.

A technique that increases heat to the limit by giving vibration to mana. The technology used by the owner basically guaranteed internal sacrifice.

Even if the troll’s grandfather came instead of the troll, it would be impossible to completely heal the internal injuries. In fact, the duke’s complexion was so pale that it rivaled drawing paper.

―If it were the owner’s ability to deal with a dwarf like that, he would be able to deal with it at any time.

“no. “This is something that must be done now.”

An alliance of rulers, including tyrants.

Unless they were idiots, they would have figured out the tyrant’s death by now.

What next?

We will find out the information one by one.

Who killed the tyrant.

Which group gains the most from the death of a tyrant, and so on.

When that happens, which organization comes to mind first?

‘It’s probably the Dwarven Kingdom.’

A group worthy of cheering at the death of a tyrant. If I had to choose the top priority, it would be the Dwarf Kingdom.

Not only was it possible to reclaim the Aachen Mountains, which were rich in mineral reserves, but it was also possible to cut off at once the cancer that had been constantly interfering with internal affairs.

With the tyrant gone, the Kingdom of Ameria was practically an empty land with no control.

There will definitely be a movement of rulers towards the kingdom.

‘It would be a waste to give up like this.’

Dwarves, due to their racial characteristics, had a structure that made it difficult for a strong person to emerge. This was because their sensitivity to mana was lower than that of other races.

Even at the level of the knight commander who protected the king, who was regarded as the most outstanding expert in the Kingdom of Ameria, he was a superhuman.

Although it is said that high-quality weapons can compensate for some of the shortcomings, it only works if the opponent is of a certain level. To a powerful ruler, it was practically no different from delicious prey.

Either use your power as an example of revenge or try to appease in some other way.

One way or another, he will reach out to intervene in the kingdom.

Dealing with the lawmakers was a kind of warning to other rulers who would reach out in that way.

A transcendental person who suddenly appeared in the Dwarf Kingdom. The only targets of assassination were dwarves who were loyal to the tyrant.

‘If it’s disaster and shadow.’

At least these two guys were slightly more rational rulers than tyrants.

Unless they are idiots, they would realize that there is a very high possibility that this Transcendant had something to do with the tyrant’s death. You will have to think at least once more before reaching out to the Dwarven Kingdom.

‘I guess I can buy at least some time.’

In the meantime, the body is restored and preparations are completed to meet the two rulers. It was a short-term goal I had right now.

While I was continuing the conversation with Bbangi. Light came through the crystal ball handed over by the leader.

As I infused the mana, the figure of the religious leader wearing a robe appeared.

“What’s going on?”

―Are you planning to visit the Land of Fire again this time?

The cult leader must have been half-aware of this since the last time he brought up the idea of sending a shape-shifter to replace Muradni.

There was no better place to process the tyrant’s skin while avoiding prying eyes.

The leader said after seeing him nodding his head.

―If you are planning to visit, how about adding one more guest?

“customer?”

―Anna’s curiosity was truly intense. If you’ll let her in, I’ll give her a full case.

It’s a case.

I guess this is a suggestion that I brought up because I know what meaning the Land of Fire holds.

Transcendant.

Whether it’s using a sword, magic, or summoning spirits. Regardless of what field it is, only those who have mastered their field can reach the state of transcendence. It was also a time when things such as daily training or combat experience did not have much significance for growth.

Entering the state of transcendence means that you have talents that are on a different level from ordinary beings, and through those talents, you will have continued to make up for your shortcomings until you have achieved great success in a field.

Therefore, in order to advance further into the state of transcendence, a different method of training was needed than before.

From this point on, what truly becomes important is….

‘Experience.’

It was an experience. Not just an experience limited to combat, but a variety of experiences that allow you to embrace new elements.

Manryu Gwijong (萬流歸宗).

All fields ultimately lead to one thing. If the gods believed in in countless temples are real, they are most likely beings who have achieved great success in all fields.

In that sense, the Land of Fire was a magical place for transcendentalists. Unknown areas are always bound to inspire, and what can be gained from such inspiration can be close to infinite depending on the individual.

In short, the religious leader’s offer was no different from asking Anna to help her grow.

It was a proposition with pros and cons.

The advantage is that the strength of our allies can increase while we are currently joining hands, even if only temporarily.

The downside was that since it was only a ‘temporary’ relationship, they might get tired when they turn into enemies one day. I remembered a time when I visited the Land of Fire in the past.

By carving a circuit into the divine sword, the sect leader paid for his visit to the spirit world.

“What do you plan on giving me in return?”

―What should I give? Hmm. Tyrant’s Shell Would you like me to carve a circuit into it?

“That’s not what I want.”

-This is such a pity. If there is anything else you would like, please let me know.

“education.”

―What about education…?

“Do you remember the wizard I saw last time?”

-Are you talking about that crafting wizard?

“okay. “This time, I plan to get help from the wizard when making items using the shell.”

―Can I at least give that wizard some tutoring?

Ethan nodded. The religious leader was a wizard who overcame the wall of transcendence. His abilities were confirmed directly in the Land of Fire.

Didn’t just engraving at most one circuit give Illya a huge insight?

Even if Ilia’s level had risen to a higher level than before, the absolute ability to engrave circuits was certain to be far superior to the cult leader. The same would be true when processing the tyrant’s outer shell.

Even so.

Ethan no longer had any intention of entrusting production requests to the religious leader.

Ilia could be said to be one of his personnel without any argument, but the leader was ultimately just an enemy.

Raising Ilya is a much more profitable business. The religious leader, who thought about Ethan’s words for a moment, answered.

-third time. I’ll go see that wizard myself. How is it?

“good night. “Where is Anna?”

―I sent it to the Kingdom of Ameria.

Ilya and Ysera.

People planning to visit the Land of Fire were already waiting nearby.

It seemed like I would be able to visit the Land of Fire again soon.

* * *

Abode of calamity.

Light shone above the crystal ball placed there. It was a communication from a shadow. As I infused the mana, a pitch black seal appeared.

-Have you found anything?

-They say something happened in the Kingdom of Ameria.

-If it’s work…?

-Do you remember the tyrant’s henchmen? Dwarves who belong to the council.

Calamity nodded. The rulers were moving to increase the influence of the Yongin tribe in their respective areas. The tyrant’s method was to take over the council.

-They say they were massacred overnight. That too, very neatly.

-The transcendent must have moved.

-Maybe so.

If he wasn’t that skilled, there was no way he could have assassinated the delegates so easily.

The timing was too elaborate. Not long after the tyrant closed his eyes, they were removing his stooges as if they had promised. The transcendent person behind this assassination incident is most likely someone who is directly related to the death of the tyrant.

Disaster pondered for a moment and asked.

-Where are you now?

-It is the border near Ameria.

-Are you going to enter?

-…well.

There was a hint of uncertainty hidden in the shadow’s answer. In order to find out who was behind this incident, it was right to go inside Ameria.

If we catch the transcendental person who killed the dwarves, we will be able to obtain information about the person behind it.

However…

the problem was that one’s own safety could not be guaranteed. Wouldn’t the forces that attacked the tyrant have any information about themselves?

The shadow wasn’t what it seemed.

A force with that much power would certainly have a formidable information network, and there was a high possibility that it would even know information about other rulers who worked with the tyrant. Maybe this was a well-planned trap.

The moment you enter the Kingdom of Ameria, you may encounter hunters. This was also the reason why the shadow was hovering near the border rather than inside the kingdom. Disaster, seeing that, nodded.

-I think it would be better to leave the Kingdom of Ameria alone for the time being.

If you do that, they will show up one by one.

Until now, the purpose of the forces that killed the tyrant was clear.

To take control of the dwarven kingdom.

Now that all of the tyrant’s henchmen have been dealt with, it will not be long before they begin to contact the high-ranking officials of the kingdom, one by one.

It is not too late to start a full-scale investigation. There is no reason to take risks and sneak into the kingdom now.

The shadow nodded at the words of disaster.

-That would be better. To agree.

―Have you gotten any information about the Transcendents?

-Approximately. However, it is only unclear information.

-Still, I want to hear it. It would be much better than no information.

-If that’s the case.

The shadow calmly continued its explanation. The point was simple. There were approximately thirty transcendental people known to royals. Among them, he began to recite one by one the list of those suspected of being absent recently.

―Duke Kayan and Marquis Chijes of the Kingdom of Nephrian, Duke Nahim of Limedel, Duke Ethan and Duke of Heidern….

The number reached twenty, more than half. Disaster sighed after hearing the list of twenty people.

-There are too many candidates.

-It’s something that can’t be helped. Monitoring the transcendent is not an easy task, even for our clan.

Among the Shadow Clan, there were less than five people who could monitor them without being discovered by the Transcendent.

Of course, it was not at all easy to find out the every move of nearly thirty transcendental people. We should consider ourselves fortunate that at least ten people were excluded.

Calamity, who understood the shadow’s words, sighed and nodded.

Twenty transcendents included in the list.

Not all of them may be involved in the tyrant’s death. At most, about half, or about ten people, would be involved.

-I’ll do half the research. Can I ask for the rest?

-i get it.

The two rulers began to move in earnest to find the culprit who killed the tyrant.
