Worthless Regression Chapter 190

————————————==

[192] Elven Forest (1)

“… … sleep… … Kahn.”

This was before the carriage even left Eorumuri.

Gwangcheonma’s lips, which had been closed until then, opened.

Lee Seong-min, who was sitting in the coach seat, looked back in surprise.

Frau, who was looking after Gwangcheonma’s condition, also looked surprised.

“Don’t talk.”

Frau warned. All of the original energy has been burned, and the body is already close to death.

Frau’s spell holds him back, but it’s not perfect.

Seongmin Lee moved from the coach seat to the luggage compartment. He looked down at Gwangcheonma, who was lying on the floor and breathing lightly.

“… … “Elderly.”

“paper… … “Give it to me.”

Gwangcheonma continued speaking with difficulty. Hair and skin. She was completely burned out. Despite that condition, Gwangcheonma was still alive.

Please send it to me. Seongmin Lee knew what those words meant and his shoulders trembled.

He stretched out his trembling hand and grabbed Gwangcheonma’s wrist.

“Elder… … .”

Gwangcheonma could no longer speak.

Lee Seong-min chewed his lips. Drop your gaze downward. All kinds of thoughts were floating around in my head.

If you go to the Huja Mountains and contact the demon spirit, you may be able to save Gwangcheon Demon.

Even Frau, who told me that, said he wasn’t sure, but this was the only way to try in the current situation.

Erebrisa had already reached out to high-ranking priests and healers to show them the condition of the Gwangcheonma, but all of them answered that it was impossible to save the Gwangcheonma. It is impossible to revive once all vitality has been burned away.

“I have lived enough.”

The trembling voice suddenly breaks down. However, to Lee Seong-min, the voice did not break at all and sounded as if it continued straight.

“I don’t have any major regrets about living. I took revenge… … okay. That’s enough. “I think I’ve lived a not bad life.”

“Elder.”

“Let me go.”

It was burning and crumbling, so I couldn’t see its expression. Seongmin Lee thought Gwangcheonma was smiling.

“This is my life. I’m waiting for the end… … Please respect it.”

Seongmin Lee closed his eyes.

I thought it was cowardly. It’s your life, so please respect it.

There was nothing Lee Seong-min could say to counter those words. Still, I wanted to say something.

Seongmin Lee opened his mouth. But in the end there was nothing he could say. After a little silence, Lee Seong-min barely managed to speak.

“… … late… … sorry.”

“are you okay. Even if you had been here from the beginning, this is what I would have done. … … “It’s a shame I have nothing to tell you.”

Gwangcheonma let out a shuddering laugh.

My bowed head is heavy. His eyes were barely open, and the view through him was shaking.

Lee Seong-min clenched his fists. His nails were piercing his skin and causing him to bleed.

“Blood Phantom God Demon Attack.”

Gwangcheonma said.

“It’s all about martial arts. It may not be a good match for your singing style, but… … But don’t forget it. Although I did not reach the transcendental realm… … Someday, you will definitely reach the realm of transcendence. Even when that time comes, please don’t forget the Blood Phantom God Demonic Art.”

“Forget… … “I won’t.”

“That’s enough.”

Gwangcheonma’s breathing became lower.

“Do you know the name of the principal?”

“… … Byeokwonpae.”

“Rather than that name, he was called Gwangcheonma more often. Hehe… … When I think about it now, it was a nickname that didn’t really fit the bill. Cheonmara. haha… … !”

Gwangcheonma let out a dry laugh.

“I’m worried about Rubia. If she had the heart to do the old man’s favor, one day… … “Can you make sure the child is safe?”

“of course… … “I will.”

“okay… … I feel relieved to hear such an answer. I’m okay with this. This is it. This seat is… … I am. “I lived without regrets.”

It’s a lie.

Gwangcheonma himself, who said those words, knew that fact best.

A life without regrets. There is no such life.

No matter how well people live, they end up regretting it right before they die. You can’t help but have regrets.

I wanted to reach the realm of transcendence. I wanted to reach a high level that could not be reached as a martial artist.

But the wall of reality was much higher than Gwangcheonma thought. In the end, it ends here.

Even though he fought and burned down the true source, he was unable to break down the wall of the transcendental realm and did not achieve enlightenment. Dying like that was a huge regret for Gwangcheonma, but he did not want to be caught up in it.

It was because I wasn’t confident. Even if he comes back to life. He was not confident that he would be able to practice martial arts again and reach the level of transcendence.

That’s why I wanted to give up. That was enough. That’s all for me. Gwangcheonma quietly closed his eyes.

“Burn the body. So that every bone burns… … like that. Don’t collect the bone dust and leave it alone. “So that you can fly anywhere.”

“Elder… … .”

“You are different from me.”

Gwangcheonma muttered. The words were so quiet that Lee Seong-min could not hear them well.

“Elder.”

Seongmin Lee hurriedly called Gwangcheonma. No answer came back.

Shallow breathing gradually stops. Eventually, breathing stopped completely.

Seongmin Lee looked at Gwangcheonma with a blank face.

Frau, who was sitting next to him, scratched the back of his head with a complicated expression.

“… … end?”

Seongmin Lee said those words without even realizing it. Is this the end?

Is this death? Seongmin Lee felt the pulse of Gwangcheonma. Nothing rings.

The death of a relative was unfamiliar to Lee Seong-min, who returned from the dead. Seongmin Lee’s shoulders are trembling.

Seongmin Lee looked at Gwangcheonma’s face. The face is completely burned out, the eyes are not visible. I felt like my stomach was turning.

Lee Seong-min chewed his lower lip to swallow the vomit.

Rather, it would be better if someone killed Gwangcheonma. If only Chuseong hadn’t died after fighting Gwangcheonma. If that were the case, I might have felt a little more at ease.

In that case, revenge would have been the goal. However, Chuseong, who was supposed to be the target of revenge, died at the hands of Gwangcheonma.

There is no object anywhere that can relieve the emotions accumulated due to Gwangcheonma’s death.

That shook Lee Seong-min. Feelings with no place to resolve are lingering in my heart. It wasn’t my first time seeing death.

Seongmin Lee himself has had the experience of dying, seen other people die, and has killed others on many occasions.

But the death that Seongmin Lee sees now. The death of his relative shook Lee Seong-min’s emotions violently. Although he only traveled together for a year, Gwangcheonma was Seongmin Lee’s colleague.

“… … “There is no need to go to the Hujal Mountains.”

Frau muttered. Inwardly she considered it fortunate.

The demonic spirits of the Huja Mountains are very fickle. Yana was lucky and got what she wanted from Ma-ryeong, but if Lee Seong-min had met Ma-ryeong.

It was unknown whether the devil would easily give Lee Seong-min what he wanted. It might be better to die cleanly like this now. Of course, Frau did not convey such thoughts to Lee Seong-min.

“How long are you planning on holding on?”

“… … wait for a sec.”

“Holding it like that doesn’t mean the dead person will come back. “You have to let it go.”

Lee Seong-min raised his head at Frau’s cold words.

A fierce gaze is directed at Frau. Frau laughed as he looked into Lee Seong-min’s eyes.

“You look like you’re going to kill me right now. You’d better control your emotions. Your body became closer to that of a monster, and your spirit became imbued with a monster. And this guy named Yao-seong enjoys violence. If you act like a golden beast, Inseong will be swallowed up by Yao Seong.”

Frau’s warning was true.

Lee Seong-min also knew that, so he chewed his lower lip. Frau is right.

Also, it was thanks to Frau that Gwangcheonma was able to convey his last words like that.

“… … sorry.”

Seongmin Lee bowed his head.

The funeral was held quietly. There was no Yana, and there was no Luvia.

It was Frau who conducted the funeral.

Just like Gwangcheonma’s will, Gwangcheonma’s body was burned. Lee Seong-min stared blankly at the corpse of Gwangcheonma, burning in the flames caused by Frau.

The corpse did not burn for long before turning into bones, and the bones turned into white powder again. A distant wind extinguished the flames and blew away ash and bone dust.

It’s over.

Lee Seong-min stood in silence and looked at it all. A sense of futility rather than solemnity. Seongmin Lee looked around without realizing it.

No one is here.

no one. There is no Rubia or mineral magic.

The moment Lee Seong-min realized it, he collapsed on the spot. I used to be used to being alone, but not anymore.

Being alone again shook Lee Seong-min’s spirit.

The strong mental strength that even Heoju could not break through was as weak as tofu right now.

[Don’t be too depressed.]

Heoju muttered. He didn’t seem to be very at ease either. Ashes and bone dust scattered after burning. Something whitish rose up from the flames that remained burning on the floor.

It hovered around the fire and flowed into Seongmin Lee. Heoju’s magic that Gwangcheonma possessed returned to Lee Seong-min. Lee Seong-min clutched his chest.

[Still, didn’t you get your revenge and die? He would have been satisfied with that. That guy died of self-satisfaction, so there is no reason for you to be depressed.]

‘… … ‘It doesn’t always work as it sounds.’

[yes. That’s why humans are weak.]

After the funeral, Frau approached Lee Seong-min.

“Are you planning on staying in Eormuri?”

“… … no.”

Seongmin Lee shook his head left and right.

“There’s more… … Because there is no reason to stay. “I’m leaving.”

I don’t think there’s any reason to wait for Yana to come back. All errands in Eormuri have been completed.

There was no reason to remain here any longer. What next? Seongmin Lee looked down at his blood-covered hands.

There is still work left to do in the south. Gwon Jon, who put a curse on Wijihoyeon. The Gwonjon is hiding in the elven forest not far from Eormuri.

“okay? In that case, today might be my last time meeting you. “Actually, I don’t think so.”

Frau laughed and shook his head.

“Your destiny power is very strong. maybe… … I too must have been caught up in your destiny. Maybe I’ll meet you again someday. “I don’t know if it will be a good meeting or a bad meeting.”

Frau muttered that and turned around. Seongmin Lee stared at Frau’s back as he walked away without even saying hello.

After looking at Frau’s back for a moment, Lee Seong-min saw the embers still remaining on the floor.

Should I say hello?

It reminds me of the village people that Yana met. He didn’t think it was necessary to tell him. She doesn’t want to create any more relationships. In fact, that was her honest feeling.

Seongmin Lee bowed his head, looking down at the crackling flames.

As I leave Eorumuri. Lee Seong-min gathered his emotions. He called Nevel first. He took Dragon Heart but felt no change.

Before heading to the elf forest, I first wanted to know exactly what my condition was.

“haha… … really… … I can’t believe it. “A human took Dragon Heart?”

The person Nevel connected with was a blue magic tower owner who wanted to purchase a dragon heart.

He was wearing a blue robe befitting his name, and was staring at Lee Seong-min’s face from beyond the passage that Nevel had opened.

“I can’t say anything because it’s unprecedented. “You wouldn’t know it if you saw it in person.”

The Blue Magic Top Lord said this and looked Lee Seong-min up and down.

“If you get a chance someday, stop by the Blue Magic Tower. “I think I can give you more solid advice.”

It wasn’t just the Blue Magic Tower Master who said such things. Because it was unprecedented for a human to take an entire dragon heart, not everyone had much to say.

“That’s my personal opinion.”

After the mediation was over, Nevel cautiously opened his mouth.

“Dragon Heart is a mass of tremendous power. Dragons are beings that live for thousands of years and freely use magic through dragon speech, and although they are not currently appearing in this world… … Until just a few hundred years ago, dragons were said to be comparable to gods. Of course, there has been no precedent for such a dragon being hunted, but in all of history, there has never been a case where the dragon heart remained in its intact form as Lee Seong-min took it. Every dragon faces death… … I mean, in a situation where you’re going to be killed. First, destroy your Dragon Heart. Thanks to this, even if you succeeded in hunting the dragon, it was impossible to obtain a complete dragon heart.”

Nevel swallowed his saliva after saying that.

“To take a complete dragon heart, you must kill the dragon before it commits suicide. To do that, you must have the power to overwhelm the dragon.”

[Ahem.]

After hearing Nevel’s words, Heoju boasted.

“Even the fragment of the Dragon Heart had tremendous magical value and contained enormous power. however… … I can’t believe I took a whole dragon heart, not just a fragment. The human body cannot handle him, and no human or demi-human can handle the power of the Dragon Heart. No matter the method, if you take it like an elixir, it is natural that your body will not be able to withstand it and will burst.”

“But I didn’t explode.”

“So what you’re saying is that it’s unprecedented. and… … This is my personal opinion. The power of Dragon Heart is probably sleeping deep inside Lee Seong-min’s body. “If only it hadn’t been scattered outside.”

It didn’t disperse. Seongmin Lee was confident about that. The enormous power of the Dragon Heart must have entered Lee Seong-min’s body.

“Maybe it’s the body’s defense mechanism. “If it were reflected in the body like an elixir, the body may have judged that it would not be able to withstand it.”

Because it was unprecedented, Nevel wasn’t sure. However, Seongmin Lee thought Nevel’s words were quite plausible.

Until now, Black Heart has evolved Lee Sung-min’s body to help him survive in the face of the crisis he faces.

Taking the entire Dragon Heart this time was also a crisis situation where my body might explode. Perhaps the Black Heart is suppressing the power of the Dragon Heart so that Lee Seong-min can endure.

“I’m sorry for saying something unnecessary.”

“no. it’s okay. “It was helpful enough.”

Seongmin Lee shook his head and answered.

“and. “I have some additional information I would like to purchase.”

“What is?”

“Ancient Forest.”

Seongmin Lee spoke in a quiet voice.

“I want to know the location of the elf forest.”
