I am not a regressor episode 312
Faded Promise (4)
“Well, what is it? “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Ha-eun looks embarrassed, as if she feels burdened by all the attention focused on her.
The Yongin people looked at the Yongan located at the corner of Ha-eun’s left eye with eyes filled with awe.
“iced coffee.”
“Yo, dragon maiden.”
The Yongin people who were caught in chains bowed their heads in tears, like religious people who had witnessed the coming of Jesus before their eyes.
“No, I’m not a virgin. What did you say earlier…” .”
“Sister, be quiet for a moment.”
Oh Jin covered Ha Eun’s mouth with his hand as she chattered as if she had a headache.
“What do you mean by prophecy?”
“… that.”
The Yongins hesitate, looking at each other.
“I’ll let the old man explain that.”
The answer came from a different direction from where the captured Yongins were gathered.
“purr!”
Poppy fiercely shows her teeth and takes a fighting stance.
On top of the collapsed rock wall, a group of hundreds of dragon people surrounded Ojin and his group, aiming magic arrows at them.
An old dragon man in the center of them approached Ojin and the others, holding a cane.
“My name is Kelion. Although he is lacking in stamina, he is leading the dragon people.”
The Yongin with gray hair finished his brief self-introduction in a polite tone.
“My name is Kwon Oh-jin.”
“I heard. “You were a hero from the world beyond the veil.”
“… “Did you hear that?”
Who did you hear your story from?
“It’s because I have a pretty close relationship with Baek Moo-gang.”
“ah.”
I never would have thought that Baekmu River and the being who leads the Yongin tribe have a connection.
“Let’s move our seats first. After hearing the commotion, a chase team from the demon race may follow.”
“yes.”
Ojin and his party walked deep into the canyon following Kelion’s guidance.
Ugh.
After passing a certain area, I felt like my body was floating, as if I had passed a gate, and the terrain in front of me changed.
Ohjin moved from a narrow canyon to an open space in an instant.
In a large open space sparsely overgrown with vegetation, dozens of barracks that appeared to have been hastily installed were lined up.
‘Were they using this place as a temporary shelter?’
Looking at the traces around the barracks, it seemed that it had been built only 2-3 days ago at most.
“You guys, watch the area around the canyon to see if the demon tribe’s chase team catches up with you.”
“yes!”
“Even if you spot a chase team, don’t attack right away, but report first.”
“I understand, Elder!”
The Yongin unit that had been caught in Isabella’s chains turned back and headed toward the canyon.
“Please come in here.”
Kelion, who guided us to the barracks in the center, entered the barracks first.
In the center of the barracks was a wooden table that looked crudely made.
“The nobleman of prophecy has come, and I am sorry for having to host him in such a shabby barracks even though I cannot give him a warm welcome.”
Kelion bows deeply towards Ha-eun.
His attitude was so extreme that it was incomparable to when he spoke with Oh Jin.
“uh… huh. Okay, it’s okay. But what did you mean by a dragon maiden or a noblewoman?”
Ha-eun asked, leaning slightly toward Oh-jin, as if she felt burdened by Kelion’s extreme attitude.
“… “I think the explanation will be long.”
Looking at Ha-eun, who had a puzzled expression as if she didn’t know anything, Kelion sighed softly.
“The Yongin people had a guardian deity called ‘Dragon God’ in the past.”
This is how the story began.
100 years ago from now.
When the large-scale invasion of the demons began, the Dragonian Kingdom was also attacked by the demons, just like the Khan Kingdom.
The attack on the Yongin tribe was so powerful and thorough that the Khan Kingdom could not even be compared to it.
At that time, the one who fought against the forces of the demon race was the dragon god Kaleios, who was the guardian deity of the dragon race.
Unlike ordinary dragons who enjoy living alone, he created a rare for the Dragonian Kingdom himself and claimed to be its guardian.
“And the hero who fought with Kaleios against the demonic army during the war a hundred years ago is none other than ‘Kailus Benedict.’”
Cailus Benedict.
It was a name I had never heard of.
“Were you of the Yongin tribe?”
“no.”
Kelion shook his head quietly.
“Mr. Cailus… “He was human.”
“yes?”

Ojin’s eyes frowned.
It was a human who helped the dragon god Kaleios fight against the demon army 100 years ago?
‘That doesn’t make sense.’
Although there is some difference in the flow of time between Earth and the Demon World.
Even so, 100 years ago, in the magic world, the ‘first crack’ leading to the Earth itself would not have been opened.
But how can a ‘human’, who is not another being, help the dragon race and fight against the demon race?
“Kaylus said that he ‘flowed into’ this world.”
It flowed in, la.
So does this mean that a passage existed between the Earth and the Demon Realm even before the first crack opened?
‘It’s not out of the question.’
If it was a huge crack with a diameter of several kilometers like it is now, there is no way it wouldn’t have been discovered, but if it was only a few meters wide like when Ojin was first sucked into the demon world, it might not have been discovered by people.
Humans often mistakenly believe that they know everything about Earth.
In fact, if you look at just the area, the area without human touch is overwhelmingly larger than the area touched by humankind.
“Kailus was the de facto leader and savior of the dragon people.”
Kelion said in a voice full of awe.
Ojin frowned as if he couldn’t understand.
“… “How could that happen?”
How can a human who came from another world become the savior of the dragon race?
No, apart from the savior and nabalgo, how on earth could a human being who is not an awakened person live in the demon world?
“Because he had the ‘stigmata’.”
“… Stigmata?”
A short laugh escaped Ojin’s mouth.
There is no way a human who was not an awakened person could have survived the Demon World.
The answer to that obvious question was so simple that I couldn’t help but laugh.
‘The Awakened have existed 100 years ago?’
It feels like all the common sense I previously knew is being disorganized.
“yes. He was an awakened person with the ‘stigmata of Dragon’.”
It was the same stigmata as Ha-eun.
“Master Cailus distributed the stigmata of the dragon, which was given by the Constellation, to the dragon people.”
“… “You gave it away?”
Among the awakened, there was no one who had the ability to share stigmata with others.
‘No.’
Constellation of black stars.
The awakened members of the Black Star had the ability to pass on their stigmata to another being.
‘But the constellation Draco won’t be a black star.’
At that time, my mind became confused as to what was going on.
“Yes, he blessed us with stars.”
Kelion lifted up the old robe she was wearing and showed off her left breast.
There was a clear ‘Stigmata of Dragon’ engraved on the left breast, similar to Ha-eun’s.
“At the time, the Yongin people were gradually losing the ability to properly handle the powerful magic contained in their blood. “This is because the magic passed down by dragons has been lost over time.”
In the distant past, the Dragon race and the Dragon race were born from the same roots.
Although the analogy is not exact, it is said that in the past, the relationship between the dragon race and the dragon race was similar to that between worker ants and queen ants.
In other words, they were a race created to worship and worship the ‘dragon’.
But the dragons did not need the help of the dragon people.
Because each object was too powerful and had a clear subjectivity, group living was avoided.
The dragons abandoned the dragon people and scattered far away.
Until then, he had worshiped the dragons and learned their magic little by little, but after all the dragons except the dragon god Kaleios left the kingdom, the magic gradually began to be lost.
This is because Kaleios’ magic alone could not digest all the magical powers with various characteristics.
“Then Kylus appeared in our kingdom.”
Through the Stigmata of Dragon, Cailus taught the dragon people how to control the powerful magic power remaining in their bodies.
“He was literally a savior to us who were dying of fever at the time because we could not properly handle the magic power within our bodies.”
Kelion clenched his fists tightly.
The eyes that were as hot as fire and the reverence in them told them well what kind of being Cailus was to them.
‘Is that why he didn’t show any resistance when he first saw us?’
Since the savior who saved the dying race was none other than a human, it would be natural for a completely different reaction from that of the beastmen.
“So what does this have to do with the prophecy you mentioned earlier?”
I understood why a man named Cailus became the savior of the dragon race.
But what does Ha-eun have to do with that?
“After the war with the Demon Race, the Dragon God fell into a deep sleep. And Cailus… .”
Kelion’s expression darkened.
“He suffered serious injuries and passed away.”
Are you thinking of Cailus?
His tightly clenched fist was shaking slightly.
“Caelus Benedict… “He was the savior of the dragon people and a close friend of the dragon god. He left a prophecy before he passed away.”
The end of the long story has reached the prophecy.
“When darkness falls on the kingdom, the woman with the Dragon Eyes will come.”
The surrounding attention was focused on Ha-eun.
“The dragon’s eyes will draw the soul of the dragon god into his body and awaken the sleeping dragon god… That was the last prophecy left by Cailus.”
Dragon God Kaleios.
The last dragon who remained until the end to protect the dragon people who were nothing more than slaves.
Could it be that Ha-eun’s ‘Yongan’ is the key to awakening him from a deep sleep after being wounded?
“uh… “Are my eyes really that amazing?”
Even Ha-eun tilted her head with a puzzled expression.
Suddenly, the face of an old man who showed his ugly greed to take over her ‘dragon eye’ flashed through my mind.
‘I thought the power of the dragon’s eye was just enough to allow me to handle the dragon’s magic more easily.’
It seems that the power in her eyes far exceeded Ojin’s thoughts.
“When the kingdom was reduced to ashes by an attack by the Majin army, and many of our compatriots lost their lives… I realized that the time for prophecy had come.”
Kelion got up from his seat and approached Ha-eun.
He knelt in front of her and bowed his head low like a priest praying to God.
“Dragon Maiden… Please bring the soul of the dragon god into his body and wake our god from his long sleep.”
Kelion’s shoulders were trembling slightly as he bowed his head low.
