I Regressed to My Ruined Family

I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 293

#When I returned, the family was ruined (294)

A subtle force encroached on the area around the underground training hall. It was the energy of the religious leader. Soon he turned his head and looked around.

―Hmm, is this a training place? It’s quite well made.

Ysera and Ethan. The leader looked at the two and nodded. Traces of the two were clearly left in the underground training hall. Nevertheless, far from collapsing, the training ground still had a solid foundation. A considerable amount of material must have been used when construction began.

There was also a familiar aura. It was Ilya’s magic formula. That must have been a big help in absorbing the shock. The demon dragon, who was looking around, looked at Ethan.

-Haha, you don’t have to look at me so harshly. I didn’t come here to fight the duke. Well… if we fight, wouldn’t it actually only result in loss?

“What about the oath?”

―Lucreon, the demonic dragon of eternal spirits, swears here and now.

Ugh…

the mana in his body began to tremble violently. It was proof that the oath was operating normally. Soon, the demon dragon recited two items.

While the army moves to attack Dragonia, he and his forces will not touch Heidern at all. The other was that he would never cause any harm, directly or indirectly, to the army heading to Dragonia.

Ugh!

The demon dragon’s body was completely covered in blue. The mana surrounding his body was vibrating violently as if it would explode at any moment.

Ethan’s face slowly hardened.

‘…I knew he was strong, but.’

The level of mana that the Demon Dragon was currently displaying far exceeded his expectations. To the extent that the odds of winning, which were set at at least 40%, had to be lowered to 30% in the worst case.

‘You didn’t show your power properly.’

Continental swordsmanship competition. It was the first time I witnessed its power firsthand. It was only now that I vaguely realized that it was not the Demon Dragon’s full power. The guy had a power that far exceeded expectations. The mana that covered his entire body through the oath proved this.

An oath was the act of making a promise using the mana of the entire body.

The moment the caster casts the oath, he or she becomes much more helpless than usual. This was because focusing on something was the same as neglecting external defenses.

‘It’s a shame.’

From the beginning, I expected the odds of winning to be about 5. The moment I cast the oath, I thought I had a 5.500 to 600% chance of winning. If that prediction had been correct, Ethan would have rushed at the guy without hesitation.

What we have cooperated with so far is cooperation.

In the end, his essence was nothing more than a dragon trying to take over royalties.

Cooperation between humans and dragons?

It would be funny to think that it goes on forever. The word betrayal was a natural topic for both of us.

That’s probably why the demon dragon came with a super strong drink called the oath.

Otherwise, we would have judged that the cooperative relationship could not continue.

Unfortunately, there was no chance to kill him. Even when he was casting an oath, he was showing a very strong spirit.

Even if they had rushed in, the odds of winning would not have been less than 40%. It was not a high figure to bet on the future of the duchy. It would have been better to accept the pledge now and aim for later.

―…I swear this on my mana.

He had been reciting for a while, and only after finishing it did the mana surrounding his body gradually subside.

-Haha, this is so bloody. If I tried to take the oath twice, I might end up dead. Anyway, what do you think? Are you satisfied now?

Ethan nodded. This was a very good condition. So much so that I don’t understand why they are giving it away like this.

In particular, given that the Demon Dragon’s true power was at that level, the suspicion could not help but deepen. If he were a demon dragon, he would have moved on while eliminating all dangerous elements.

―Miss Sera Lee has also grown considerably compared to the past. I feel so proud when I see it.

“….”

Ysera pursed her lips. This was because they were not on good enough terms to have a comfortable conversation with the demon dragon. Moreover, this was especially true in a situation where it was certain that they would one day become enemies.

-I understand. We will have detailed conversations through the crystal ball. I’ll leave the unwelcome guest alone.

The new form of the Demon Dragon has disappeared. Ysera, who was quietly looking at it, stuck out her tongue.

“If you want, you can come to us within an hour… right?”

“I guess so.”

“…He’s definitely scary.”

When I saw it in the Land of Fire, I didn’t feel this much of a threat. At that time, Ysera’s state was at the level of a superhuman. It was difficult to penetrate the force of the Absolute and grasp its inner power. I only guessed that he was a great wizard.

But it was different now. Through successive training, he improved not only his body but also his prayers, and achieved great growth in various areas to the point of becoming a transcendental person. Naturally, the perspective of penetrating the opponent was bound to show a marked difference from the past.

Although it may not have been possible to see the true power of the Demon Dragon. I was able to understand that he was a monster with magical power so great that it was indescribable to his level. And even the fact that that demon dragon has much more overwhelming power than the peacock. This was the same even if a monarch was descended.

‘…I guess that’s why the duke didn’t move.’

Even if you target your opponent’s weaknesses, your chances of winning are low. Perhaps because he noticed that, he obediently accepted the offer.

“Go back.”

Ethan turned around.

Defeating Dragonia has already become a foregone conclusion. It’s something that even involves an oath. There was no reason to kick the advantageous stage.

To defeat Dragonia.

Maintaining the army was the top priority. From now on, busy days will continue.

* * *

War clouds hover.

If I were to express the atmosphere of the Duchy of Ardan in one line, it would be like this. The amount of steel imported has increased explosively. The door to the food sold outside was tightly locked. As if that wasn’t enough, the entire force was continuing intense training day after day.

Even the people’s eyes could see that war was in the air. There was no way the nobles would not notice this fact. The news quickly spread throughout the kingdom.

Despite this, there was no unrest among the royal family or high-ranking nobles. This was because the Duke personally delivered the news. I’m going to attack Dragonia. Of course, when they first heard this news, the nobles, including Delprion, were astonished to the point where their eyes went beyond the inner space and overflowed to the outside.

After hearing the story about the ‘deal’ with the demon dragon, I began to understand Ethan’s movements to some extent. This was because the terms of the oath itself were quite favorable to the duke.

If you think that the duke and Heidern are virtually one in the same, this advantage also applies to them.

Eventually an agreement was reached. Everyone agrees on competing as Dragonia. However, an in-depth discussion continued regarding how much troops to send.

Although we had received confirmation that the Demon Dragon would not move, sending the entire army into battle without any remaining troops was nothing short of crazy. Shouldn’t there at least be a unit in charge of security?

It is a matter of striking down Dragonia, who is no different from an enemy. I couldn’t just send Ardan. Each noble raised an army. However, the duke said that there was no need to send too many troops.

Each person volunteered to join the army by sharing the burden appropriately.

The number of soldiers gathered like that was well over 10,000.

The knights also gathered more than expected.

It was about four hundred.

Ardan’s army had 20,000 troops and about 600 knights.

In total, it was a large army of 1,000 knights and nearly 30,000 soldiers. A huge army gathered towards Londinium.

Battle for Dragonia!

This news soon shook the entire kingdom. The attention of not only Heidern but also the six kingdoms and empires flocked to him. This was because there were no troops that invaded Dragonia after the Balaur War.

It was natural. Even the Zeno Empire suffered tremendous damage from the initial dragon invasion, and all kingdoms clearly witnessed it.

Wasn’t even Ardan, who was said to be the greatest swordsman on the continent, able to stop the monarch only after losing all of his power?

A dragon race where one regular soldier can handle ten infantry. Invading their land was tantamount to suicide. Not only that, but even the Zeno Empire quickly sought peace, so all the kingdoms declared the end of the war with the Dragon Clan, forgetting their grudges over the invasion.

By the time Dragonia was forgotten.

Ardan himself drew his sword.

They also left behind a declaration that they would invade Dragonia with Heidern’s support.

The entire continent held its breath.

Regardless of whether it was ordinary people or formal nobles, whenever groups of people gathered together, this story was a hot topic. How will the war unfold?

Duke Ethan is known for his talent reaching the sky. So, we will win this war as well.

Starting with the opinion.

There are even opinions that there are limits to leading a war through individual power, and even opinions that Dragonia is not an easy terrain for a single country to occupy.

There were numerous opinions about victory and defeat. But one thing was certain. Everyone is tense and looking at Heidern with concern.

Actually, it was natural.

Haven’t the dragons shown no noticeable movement since the war ended? This could easily end up stinging a beehive.

Perhaps even the end-of-war agreement could turn into a piece of tissue paper. The commoners ended up worried, but the nobles reacted differently. If a war with the dragon clan began immediately, they had an enormous amount to lose. The nobles began to move. A huge amount of appeals were poured in front of each king.

The point was simple.

It said that Heidern must be stopped even now. Normally, when complaints of this magnitude poured in, there was bound to be a response at the royal level.

But strangely enough.

Among the six kingdoms except Heidern, not a single one issued a statement refuting this invasion. Rather, there were more than three kings who supported the invasion, and the remaining three kings only remained neutral. This was the same for the high-ranking nobles of each kingdom.

While everyone was hesitating, the Duke of Ardan finally voted to run. War clouds were slowly enveloping the continent.
