Dragonslayer’s Class Regression Chapter 33

Chapter 33

‘Sethon Draker?’

It was shocking enough that Sethon was the first person to create the Aura training Technique .

But I had never thought that the Knight of Nobility Sethon could possibly be of Draker bloodline.

‘Why wasn’t this fact known to later generations at all?.’

Until now, the origin of the Aura training Technique itself had been unclear.

It was only thought to have been developed by continuing the training Techniques passed down through each family.

This was the moment when the secret about the origin of the Aura training Technique was solved.

After recovering from the shock, Zeke calmed down Kaisir who was jumping around excitedly.

And while soothing him, he began to extract information about the Elemental Sword.

* * *

Although Kaisir’s words were rough, he tried his best to share what he knew.

“Hmm, still, you’re better than the other guys. You understand what I’m saying.”

For several weeks, he was able to learn the theory of Elemental Sword from Kaisir.

What was surprising was that the Elemental Sword was quite a systematic swordsmanship, and that Kaisir’s achievements known through legends had been significantly downplayed.

“You caught the Gorgon alone, Your Majesty? In the legend, it says all twelve knights of the Clock Tower worked together to catch it.”

“Clock Tower knights? Don’t know what that is, but anyway, I went and swept it away in one go. The others probably just did the cleanup.”

Listening to him speak in detail about the untold history of the past, Zeke had no choice but to believe that the being before him was indeed Kaisir himself in spirit form.

After leaving his physical body and going to the spirit realm where the fairy world exists, it was impossible to return to the physical world.

However, he had arranged the ruins by placing restrictions so that he could stay here only in spirit form.

“How is such a thing possible?”

Kaisir spoke as if it was nothing special.

“Well, it was possible because the dragons helped.”

“What? Dragons?”

Seeing Zeke’s surprise, Kaisir was even more surprised.

“What’s wrong with dragons helping?”

“Well, dragons are enemies of humans…”

“What are you talking about? Why would dragons be enemies of humans? There’s no being that cherishes humans more than dragons.”

Kaisir pointed at Zeke’s sword and said.

“Isn’t that sword and heart given by Bahamut?”

Zeke’s eyes shook severely.

“Y-yes, that’s right.”

If he said something wrong here and triggered Kaisir’s temper, all the effort put into soothing him could be wasted.

Zeke carefully asked Kaisir.

“Your Majesty, have you ever heard of… Dragon Slayers?”

At those words, Kaisir ground his teeth.

“You mean those cursed ones who call themselves Dragon Slayers or whatever? I remember finding them and cutting off all their heads when they were sneaking into lairs, killing precious hatchlings, and then bragging about hunting dragons.”

Zeke kept his mouth shut.

If he mentioned that his ancestor had cut off Bahamut’s head and displayed its teeth and heart, he would probably do the same thing he did to the previous Dragon Slayers.

As Zeke remained silent, Kaisir quickly calmed his anger and suddenly asked Zeke curiously.

“By the way, how did you get the teeth and heart from Bahamut, that ill-tempered one? He was the worst-tempered dragon I’ve ever seen.”

Zeke lied without hesitation.

“Our Murray family has had a close relationship with Lord Bahamut for generations. As you can see, my constitution is unique. He found it interesting and shared his teeth and heart.”

Hearing this, Kaisir nodded.

“Well, that one did have a particular interest in interesting things. He got scolded by Chronos many times because of that.”

“Chronos?”

From the context, it seemed to be another dragon’s name.

It was a name that didn’t appear in the Dragon Slayers’ records.

Zeke carefully asked Kaisir.

“Was the Chronos Kingdom named after Lord Chronos?”

“I suppose so. Since I was Chronos’s contractor, I received a lot of help when establishing the kingdom. When deciding on the kingdom’s name, it was bothersome to think too much, and Chronos was hanging around, so we just went with Chronos.”

It was disappointing to learn that the legendary kingdom’s name was chosen for such a trivial reason.

“But a contractor of Chronos? Can dragons make contracts with humans?”

While Zeke had many questions he wanted to ask, he was worried about revealing his bloodline from the Dragon Slayer family, so he asked carefully, pretending it was just casual curiosity.

From the lengthy conversation with Kaisir, it seemed that in his era, humans and dragons had very good relationships, and dragons helped humans who were less civilized.

Dragons of that time served as ‘World Coordinators’ and couldn’t provide unconditional help to the physical realm.

They could only help contractors after making a contract with humans, polymorphing into human form, and placing restrictions on themselves.

Otherwise, it could disrupt the world’s balance and endanger the physical realm.

‘’This is very different from what I know.’’

While there were many historical records after the dragon Bahamut was killed by Terakan Draker and saved the continent from crisis, history before that was mostly lost.

Due to limited information, some scholars even claimed ancient civilization was far more advanced than the present.

Listening to Kaisir’s words reinforced how little was known about ancient times.

Back then, dragon contractors were everywhere, and polymorphed dragons seemed to have provided significant help that influenced human history.

Among ancient relics found at ruins, there were items that couldn’t be understood with current magical knowledge likely created with dragons’ help.

Zeke wondered why the close relationship between humans and dragons had grown distant.

‘I should thoroughly watch Kaisir’s chronological videos later.’

After organizing his thoughts, Zeke decided to focus on fully mastering the Elemental Sword.

While there shouldn’t be major issues since he told his family he was vacationing in Argos, he needed to return to Atlas before Valhalla’s semester began.

Learning the Elemental Sword was smoother than expected.

However, Zeke struggled at an unexpected stage.

“Hey, that’s not it! You’re doing everything else well, why do you keep getting this wrong?”

He particularly struggled with the ‘Water Force’, which controls water among the four elements.

Zeke tried again to draw water power and swing his sword.

A strong force swept around like a waterfall crashing down.

Kaisir hit Zeke’s head with his scabbard.

“Kid! This is water power, not waterfall power! Water’s essence is gentleness. Don’t you know softness overcomes hardness?”

“First time hearing that.”

“This brat. Seems like he just claims not to know anything disadvantageous to him. Anyway. Water power isn’t just about using force. Watch.”

Kaisir drew his sword and summoned water power.

His sword flowed calmly like a still water surface.

It flowed leisurely like a river, moved slowly like a peaceful lake, and sometimes struck powerfully like a waterfall.

Putting away his sword, Kaisir said,

“All four elements are important, but water is most crucial. Life began from water, and over 70% of our bodies are made of water. Got it, you dimwit?”

In his previous life, Zeke only pursued extreme strength, driven by the will to survive.

Such a person couldn’t be familiar with swordsmanship that required releasing power and handling opponents gently.

His head and body understood the movements, but his heart couldn’t fully grasp the concept.

Kaisir decided to start over from basics.

As a result, Zeke had to meditate for hours daily in a cross-legged position like Kaisir.

It was torture sitting still for hours when he needed to quickly master the Elemental Sword and go to Valhalla.

Thwack!

If he got distracted, Kaisir’s scabbard would immediately hit his head.

“Clear your thoughts and look deep into your heart.”

Kaisir was speaking unusually like a priest.

A month quickly passed.

Yet Zeke still couldn’t understand water power at all.

Rather, his impatience only increased his distracting thoughts, earning him twice as many hits on the back of his head from Kaisir.

In the end, Kaisir decided to take a different approach.

“I can’t believe this fool is the only one who will inherit my legacy.”

“Could there be an issue with Your Majesty’s teaching Technique?”

“Shut up. This isn’t working. You’ll have to learn through different means.”

“There was another Technique? You should have taught me that earlier. We just wasted time.”

“I’ll make you regret those words.”

Kaisir’s Technique wasn’t anything special.

The power of water is centered on ‘relaxation’.

In other words, releasing tension was important, and Kaisir’s Technique was to forcibly exhaust the body to induce relaxation and instill the principle of releasing power.

Zeke smirked at Kaisir’s words.

He had an infinite stamina passive skill, so he couldn’t feel the sensation of fatigue.

But that was Zeke’s misconception.

“Huff! Huff!”

Training began at an intensity that even infinite stamina couldn’t handle.

It was endless sparring with Kaisir.

Without eating or sleeping, he had to constantly cross swords with Kaisir, fighting again and again.

Additionally, Kaisir used the ‘Field of Gravity’ to increase gravity tenfold on Zeke’s body.

With such a heavy body, he still had to somehow dodge or block Kaisir’s attacks.

“Move faster!”

Kwakwakwa!

Storm sword attacks using the wind field swept toward Zeke.

Zeke also deployed his wind field to block the storm sword.

But his elemental power was insufficient to block Kaisir’s strength.

He was swept away and crashed into the wall.

Fortunately, he didn’t lose consciousness, showing some improvement from before.

And Kaisir didn’t leave Zeke alone.

He made him stand up again and pummeled his entire body with new techniques.

After learning that Zeke had healing factor and infinite stamina that could heal most wounds, he became even more enthusiastic about the beating.

“Oh, how fun! This is stimulation hard to find in the boring spirit realm!”

For a month, Zeke was tormented by Kaisir as relaxation was forcibly instilled in his body.

At moments when it seemed impossible to move even a fingertip, Zeke swung his sword and practiced footwork with a completely relaxed body.

Swinging the sword in a completely exhausted state, he couldn’t tell if he was the sword or the sword was him.

It was a sensation he had never experienced in his previous life.

Zeke swung his sword in a trance-like state.

When he completely relaxed his body, the sword found its own path smoothly and steadily.

He finally understood the form that created the ‘Field of Water’ which he couldn’t achieve before.

In that moment, enlightenment came to Zeke.

Woooong!

Having grasped the principle of relaxation, Zeke swung his sword differently than usual.

He used Elemental Sword, then Wind Storm technique, and even raised his aura to use Dragon-slaying technique.

He moved and moved again following his hands’ unconscious guidance.

After a while, the energy surrounding Zeke’s body was stored within him.

He had broken through the wall of the Red Knight, beyond the Blue Knight.

Zeke opened his eyes.
