I’m not a Regressor

I am not a returner Episode 295

Sky Mountains (1)

“Huh! “Huh!”

My breath rose to the tip of my chin.

A demonic woman with two black horns sprouting from her forehead was climbing a rugged mountain path.

“Where on earth did such monsters come from?”

I was well aware that there were beings called awakened people in the world beyond the veil.

I never expected that it would be strong enough to dare to fight and win against the demon race.

“If only we had an army…”

The woman chewed her red lips nervously.

Because a large number of the Demons stationed in the Beastman Kingdom had escaped under the orders of the Heavenly Demon, there was too little power to deal with the awakened people from the world beyond the veil.

The only thing I could trust was Kalyke.

‘You idiot.’

The woman cursed as she thought about Kalyke, who had died in vain while she was wiggling her lips.

“ha. “I wonder how long it will take to go back to the Sky Mountains…”

A deep sigh flowed from the woman’s mouth.

Niflheim, the kingdom of the Demons, was located in the deepest part of the Demon World.

If we crossed the Sky Mountains, it was still a distance that could be covered within a month, but otherwise, we would have had to travel for over three months.

I was walking along while grumbling and complaining.

Slurp.

The sound of something crawling through the bushes was heard.

An eerie feeling spread down my spine.

“Who is it?!”

The embarrassed woman turned her head.

A snake crawled out from between the bushes.

The snake with black scales approached her with its long tongue lashing out.

“Ha…what? It was just a snake.”

Just because it is a demon world does not mean that only demonic beasts are living a busy life.

Common plants and animals also lived in the forest, although their species and forms were slightly different from those living on Earth.

For most people, the sight of a snake on a forest path would have been enough to make them wary, but she was a demon who received the blessing of the Heavenly Demon.

From her perspective, there was no difference between snakes and earthworms.

“You’re surprising me for no reason.”

The demon woman looked annoyed and raised her foot to stomp the snake that was flicking its tongue.

at that time.

Shrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!

“Aaaah!”

The black snake soared at explosive speed and wrapped around her body.

It was only a snake as thick as two fingers wrapped around her body, but a huge force was pressing on her, as if she was being held in the grip of a giant.

“What is it? what is this?!”

A demonic woman looking around with a terrified expression.

The shade under the tree wriggled like a living creature, and a woman walked out from it.

A woman with an alluring appearance that does not match her slender, girlish body.

A woman wearing a jet black dress so long that it dragged on the floor approached the demons tied to a black snake.

“hi?”

A cold hand caressing your cheek.

My body reacted before my head to the eerie shiver running down my back.

“Ah uh.”

A fear that seems to suffocate one’s breath.

The demonic woman trembled as she felt the pants she was wearing becoming wet.

Die.

My head was filled with intuition that was close to certainty.

“I have a quick question… can you answer me?”

“Yes yes yes….”

The demonic woman stammered and nodded.

Cassia laughed darkly, waving her long tongue like a snake.

“Where is Heavenly Demon now?”

The emerald eyes were eerily shiny.

* * *

“Then let’s go.”

In front of the village of the Silver Mane tribe.

Silver-maned tribe members came out to see off Ojin and his group as they prepared to leave.

“Come back anytime, warrior!”

“The Silver Mane Tribe will await the safe return of our warriors!”

Beast-human warriors bursting into hearty laughter and beating their chests.

Ohjin nodded with a faint smile.

“Oh Jin, this.”

Leoru held out a horn the size of his palm to Ojin.

“What is this?”

“This is a flute that emits a sound that demons dislike. “It’s not very effective, but you can use it to buy some time.”

It must have been made hastily after hearing that they were planning to cross the Sky Mountains.

“thank you.”

Ojin lightly blew on the horn given to him by Leoru.

Beep.

Contrary to what I expected, the sound came out quite clearly.

“Does the demonic beast hate these sounds?”

I heard it was a sound that demons disliked, so I thought it would sound like fingernails scratching an iron plate, but it was completely different.

“yes. Of course, there are so many species of demonic beasts that the effects vary widely, but it will definitely be effective if you are a demonic beast with developed hearing.”

“Hmm. All right.”

I’m not sure about the principle, but since Leoru speaks loudly like that, it must be effective.

“Then I pray that you cross the mountain range safely.”

Leoru bows politely.

“I hope that Mr. Leoru can rebuild his kingdom safely.”

“yes.”

“And… you remember what I told you, right?”

“Are you saying that there may be one Demon race left?”

Of the five demons remaining in the kingdom, four died.

Looking at the data previously researched in the kingdom, I found that the missing Majin was the only female demon among the five.

I wanted to search the entire kingdom to find it and end things neatly.

As Ojin had to arrive at the Dragonian Kingdom as quickly as possible, he couldn’t waste time looking for a single demon who might be alive or dead.

“Haha! Don’t worry, warrior! “Even if it’s Kalyke, our silver mane tribe is enough for at least one normal demon race!”

The beastman warrior who had given Liru some harsh words at a drinking party last night was thumping his chest and laughing heartily.

but.

As he said, one demon race wouldn’t be a big problem.

It was the Silver Mane tribe that killed two demons in the castle this time.

“Then I’ll just leave.”

When Ojin nods his head and tries to turn around.

“Sniff. “Sigh!”

“Are you really… going?”

Leo and Liru, who were hiding behind Leoru, walked out crying.

The time we met didn’t last long, but it seems like we became quite attached during that time.

Oh Jin chuckled and patted the two children’s heads.

“I will come back once the work in the Dragon Kingdom is over. How are you doing until then?”

“Whoosh… Whoosh! “I’ll be waiting for you, bro!”

Leo wiped his tears and shouted bravely.

“Oppa Ojin….”

Liru, who was glancing at Leoru, took a step towards Ojin.

side.

A girl who unexpectedly kisses Ojin on the cheek.

“Li Liru!”

Leoru jumped up with a scared expression.

Liru smiled shyly, twisting her beautifully braided silver hair with her hands.

“See you again, brother! “I’ll be waiting!”

“Uh, yeah.”

Oh Jin hurriedly turned around as he felt a cold, murderous energy rising from Isabella and Ha-eun who were standing behind him.

“…Now are you going to seduce a little kid?”

Ha-eun poked Oh-jin’s side with her elbow and glared at him sharply.

Isabella bit her nails and muttered in a cold voice.

“Hehe. “He was a good kid… but it’s a shame.”

“no.”

When you say that, it seems like Liru is dead.

“Then let’s leave.”

“Crumbling. “Do you know the way there, kid?”

“I only heard about it yesterday.”

Ojin walked in the direction of the Sky Mountains.

‘It would be nice to have something to ride.’

Having the body of an awakened person made it possible to move faster than a horse, but because it traveled such a long distance, the loss of physical strength was bound to be significant.

‘I miss you, Poppy.’

Ohjin clicked his tongue as he remembered Poppy, who showed no sign of fatigue even after running for 12 hours a day.

While I was walking towards the Sky Mountains.

Wooooow!

Light began to emanate from the pendant on the necklace.

[It’s the real girl!]

Vega appeared, spinning her body in a motion that seemed to fit the sound effect of ‘bba-bam’.

Oh Jin waved his hand with a happy expression.

“Are you feeling better?”

[After a good rest, the restrictions have been lifted to some extent. Of course, I won’t be able to give you my blessing for a while… but we will still be able to hang out together like this.]

“I’m glad.”

It was a bit disappointing that I couldn’t give him a blessing, but just having Vega by my side made me feel reassured.

[By the way, has the Khan Kingdom’s affairs been handled well?]

What Vega remembers is that Ojin succeeded in defeating Kalyke.

After that, I was immediately summoned back to the sanctuary, so I didn’t know how the situation unfolded.

“huh. “It worked out well.”

Ojin explained to her what happened after she was backsummoned to the sanctuary.

[…Something like that.]

Vega looked at Riak with a sad expression.

Vega flew over to Riak and stroked the silver wolf’s head with a gentle smile on her face.

[He must have been very heartbroken.]

“…Hmph, it was a fitting end for an idiot.”

Riak walked away with a bitter smile.

Vega climbed on top of Riak’s head and repeatedly stroked Riak’s head as if she was proud of him.

[By the way, it hasn’t been long since the Khan Kingdom’s affairs were resolved, so you’re leaving right away?]

“Because we don’t have time to rest in peace.”

[But…]

Vega looked at Ojin with a worried expression.

The constellation’s blessing places a great burden not only on the constellation itself but also on the awakened person.

Especially if it is a blessing given by the constellation of the North Star.

Although he is pretending like nothing has happened on the outside, Ojin’s physical condition is probably not normal right now.

[ha. How much do you really have to upset your wife to be satisfied?]

Vega let out a deep sigh and shook her head.

Instead of answering, Ohjin lightly shrugged his shoulders and hurried his steps.

How many hours did it take to walk like that?

When I couldn’t even get out of the forest surrounding the kingdom, let alone the Sky Mountains.

“stop.”

Riak, who was ahead, suddenly stopped.

Riak, who was sniffing the ground, looked ahead with sharp eyes.

“A demonic beast?”

“Yes.”

As I activated the stigmata of the constellation Canis, I felt a demonic beast approaching from afar.

“It seems like he’s a pretty big guy, huh?”

The sound of footsteps was quite heavy, like a monster of some size.

thud! thud! thud!

The sound of footsteps pounding the ground quickly got closer, as if Ojin and his group had been spotted over there as well.

“Ready for battle.”

“Yes, Mr. Ojin.”

“Mr… “The hangover hasn’t gone away yet.”

Ha-eun grumbled and took out a cigarette pack from her pocket.

When embers flicker from the tip of the tobacco held between your fingers.

“Crumbling!”

A huge demon with an eagle’s head, a lion’s mane, and a snake’s tail appeared, smashing the trees.

“uh?”

“Crrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!”

Ojin’s eyes widened.

A demonic beast approaches, quickly waving its snake tail from side to side like a puppy meeting its owner.

“Poppy?”

I was about to wave happily at Poppy who was running towards me.

“You… the one who attacked Mr. Ojin back then…”

Isabella glared at Poppy with cold eyes.

Crack.

Isabella, gritting her teeth fiercely, produced a bloody sickle and rushed at Poppy.

“Oh, no!”

Poppyaaaa!
