◈ Everyone Else is a Regressor (62)
"I knew you humans would come here."
"Truly pathetic, crawling all the way here, believing the words of a woman deluded with grandiose fantasies."
At the forefront of the werewolf pack were two noticeably larger werewolves.
It was hard to distinguish their gender, as they had completely transformed into monsters, but the one on the left seemed to be originally a woman, judging by the slightly higher pitch of the voice.
They were probably mid-boss monsters, subordinates of Quinodon, controlling this area of the ruins.
Moreover, their stats were higher, and their race grade remained at Rare, surpassing KiJun's own grade.
How did KiJun discern this?
―You are facing a Darkness/Evil attribute boss monster. The title effect [The Last Hero (L)] activates, enhancing all abilities by 30%.
―You are facing an enemy of a higher grade. The effect of the title [Transcender of Limits (L)] has been activated, dramatically obtaining positive adjustments.
This surge in power was evident immediately upon encountering them, as the messages appeared before his eyes.
Suddenly, KiJun wondered if the title effects would disappear if he engaged the underlings instead of these bosses. However, a quick test with his shield confirmed that they did not.
―Clang!
―The level of the skill 'Flash Throw (R)' has reached level 5!
The King of the Well, now faster and radiating brighter light than before, circled through the air, beheading over ten werewolves before returning to his hand, with the two mid-bosses unable to react in time.
"What―― You damn human!"
"We'll kill you!"
Despite their shock and fear at KiJun's performance, surpassing their reaction speed, the werewolves tried to suppress their negative emotions with anger.
Yet, KiJun, facing the werewolves who seemed ready to attack any moment, casually shook off the blood and brain matter from his shield and snorted.
"I'm not a human, but a Flame Human. Seems like your eyesight is bad, being beasts and all."
"Whew, that really woke me up. Nice attack, leader."
Were these werewolves different from the ones he had encountered before, elite troops numbering in hundreds, appearing all at once, intimidating him for a moment?
Even Armillca, who seemed to be stiffened up, drew his sword with a whistle.
In, too, was on alert, protecting Lora, who, with a determined look, pulled out a thick book from her bosom.
No, it wasn't a book.
It was a leather case containing hundreds of glowing papers.
She took out a few sheets, placed them between her fingers, and glared.
"I will use the sacred battle spells――!"
"Ah, Lo――ra! So gracious!"
Regardless of Armillca's scream, Lora chanted with a passionate voice amidst the enveloping light.
"O you who oversee every holy struggle of warriors, the brightest morning star in the heavens. Hear the prayers of the battlefield and respond!"
―...Huh?
Just then, Lucy turned to look at Lora, her eyes widening slightly.
As Lora threw the papers, they burst into flames in mid-air.
A dazzling golden power... no, more fittingly, a divine power, formed a giant ring surrounding the area.
"Ishtar, the brilliant goddess of victory―― bless us with your light!"
―Aaaaaaaah!
Suddenly, a shining pentagram appeared within the ring enveloping KiJun and the werewolves, then vanished.
KiJun's eyes widened as he felt a new vitality surge within him.
It wasn't a dramatic increase in power, but it affected all his skills uniformly, and most importantly... his inherent light power was being amplified.
For KiJun, this was an earth-shaking event because, due to his unique skill of repelling all buffs and debuffs, he had never received buffs from others before!
'I can't believe it's accepting the buff without resistance.'
―It must be because the contractor has become a Light Human. Since the powers are fundamentally the same, it accepted it without resistance.
'Goodness, what an incredible blessing. Ishtar, a priestess of light...'
―Contractor, ugh, I don't like that girl, but we might have to stick with her for a long time. Sniff...
'Alright, don't cry, Lucy.'
A priestess who could apply buffs to KiJun, who otherwise couldn't receive them, was naturally someone to keep for life.nôvel binz was the first platform to present this chapter.
As KiJun chuckled at Lucy's sobbing manner, he lifted his shield.
Seemingly irritated by the light Lora created, a werewolf man―― mid-boss A, with elongated claws, swung at her.
―Clang!
The werewolf's sharply extended claws clashed with the shield, creating noise and sparks.
Despite his efforts
to overpower KiJun, only a smile formed on KiJun's lips.
Already empowered by 'The Last Hero' and 'Transcender of Limits', and now unexpectedly supported by Lora's dramatic intervention―― the attack didn't feel heavy at all.
―Kill that woman first――!
As the werewolves rushed like a wave at Lora and the others, KiJun blocked mid-boss A's claws, gathering strength in his shield hand, igniting more fiercely with flames and light, and spoke without looking back.
"Protect them with your life, In."
While some party members were terrified, the werewolves, unable to withstand their hatred and anger towards him, rushed from all directions.
Ironically, mid-boss B, who was being toyed with by Armillca, couldn't escape the effect of the Blinding Taunt either.
―That damned flame, that annoying light――!
"Ha, you have the guts to take your eyes off me...? I'll grant your wish to die!"
Even though Armillca was dominant in a direct fight, the werewolf, having lost all reason, stood no chance against him from behind.
Quickly beheading the mid-boss, Armillca threw its head among the werewolves rushing towards KiJun, distracting them before charging in, slashing down dozens in a display of his might.
"I can't let leader be the only cool one! Lo――ra, watch meeeee!"
"I'm watching, so be careful!"
Unlike the previous battle, where most werewolves were bestial, this time they faced well-armed, elite troops. Yet, KiJun faced them without blinking.
'Salutaris.'
His spent mana and spirit power were replenished by the unique circulation of his own magic, warming his entire body.
Part of it flowed to Ur and Lucy, becoming the power of light and flame, while the rest fueled Adamant, transforming his two shields into divine weapons.
KiJun, standing firm on the ground, relentlessly pushed and tore through his enemies.
Until he fell, no one could surpass him, and he would not fall unless he chose to.
"Ha, the calculations keep changing!"
"Hoo―― are you okay, Lora?"
"Yes, yes. I'm fine."
As the tide of battle turned, Herbert reappeared, launching attacks, and In, who had been protecting Lora, finally had a chance to catch his breath and fight more comfortably.
It seemed there were more hidden enemies, as over a hundred werewolves emerged after the two leaders died, but by then, even Lora, abandoning her role as healer, was casting light attack spells, cleaning up the battlefield neatly.
―Level 30 achieved: Strength (U) increased by 1, Dexterity (L) by 1, Spirit Power (L) by 1.
―Due to the stimulating battle, additional growth in Strength (U) 1, Endurance (U) 1.
―Fire Spirit Magic (R) reached level 60, Adamant (L) level 4, Salutaris (L) level 5.
"Hoo."
KiJun tried to hide his joy as he felt his body creaking, realigning and strengthening in real time.
But a faint smile still appeared on his face.
"Jun."
"Yeah."
Herbert approached and spoke to him.
Anticipating what he was about to say, KiJun hardened his expression and nodded.
"The enemy's tactics were too calculated. There's a traitor in the village."
"Yeah."
"Perhaps our arrival disrupted their original plans. They might be afraid of us becoming true humans. So they attacked us in desperation."
"...Yeah."
"In the worst case... we might find the village gone when we return."
"I hope that's not the case."
A bitter smile, different from the one before, crossed his lips.
While contemplating leaving the guns in the village, he noticed Herbert's oddly calm expression while discussing such matters.
"Aren't you surprised?"
"The best prophecy is history itself. I've seen this kind of thing before. It's all too common."
"......"
Strangely, that echoed the words of the famous Romantic poet George Gordon Byron.
"Let's go," Herbert said shortly, looking back at the party members before scouting ahead, then glanced at KiJun.
"That's why I told you not to get too attached."
As they entered the mountain, the werewolf attacks completely ceased.
While ascending the mountain and checking the map, they soon discovered an unnaturally piled rock tomb, confirming it to be a silver mine.
And after hours of digging through dirt and rocks, they finally found silver imbued with the power of the moon.
A large deposit of Moonlight stones was a bonus.
"They're all dead? By them? How, how..."
"No! That can't be!"
"..."
"Please spare them... If not for that condition, I wouldn't have let you in. Never."
"There's a magical contract. I took it when escaping the lab..."
"Fine, I don't care about the rest."
"No, there are people who must be killed."
"That woman."
"The wolf pup? Are you talking about Gin?"
"...I know, it's okay."
"It's not my child anyway."
