How the Regressor Loves the Reincarnated

28. Eleven.

1.

Lugnica Albertn was born as a slave from Hernot, a small city-state in the southern continent. A place where those who have accumulated enormous wealth based on maritime trade gain the upper hand, and the poor have to worry about how to get food today.

It was only when he was eight years old that Lugnica, who was born to a prostitute in Hernot, was taken to her slave arena.

On the day of the first appearance. Everyone expected Lugnica’s death. After all, what can a little eight-year-old show against a goblin? I wonder if it was one, or against two.

It was a stage prepared for a one-sided execution. In Hernote, slaves are subhuman beings. It was such a cheap life that people would die very simply for the entertainment of those who have it.

But unlike other slaves, Lugnika had talent. A talent for combat and survival.

Because she was talented, she survived being thrown barefoot against two goblins. Thanks to her talent, she snatched the dagger from one of them, suffocating them both.

However, Lugunica, who was just a young slave with nothing, survived 12 years in the slave arena and became the king of the arena.

It was none other than his fighting spirit that knew no end.

A nightlife for the wealthy, a slave arena that runs underground in Hernot. Since playing his first match there, Lugnica has come to be treated as the goose that lays one golden egg.

It was thanks to the management team of the arena that they recognized Lugnica’s natural star quality.

Basically Lugnica is at a disadvantage in every match, but it is a matchup that has the possibility to overcome. Sufficient rest and recovery time, and differentiated treatment from other slaves.

Of course, no one taught Lugnika the art of fighting. It was something Lugnica had to train herself to survive, and she wasn’t too dissatisfied with it.

The crowd was thrilled to see Lugnica mercilessly biting opponents in the arena to achieve victory.

One to one. One to many Medium monster. Beast of prey. Heterogeneous slaves. A former knight who committed a crime and fell into slavery.

A champion created in the slave arena that will always win no matter what opponent you face. Undefeated King. Commitment.

It wouldn’t have been so strange for those who came to the arena to watch Lugnica’s match to form a sea of people.

As time passed and they grew older, the treatment of Lugnica gradually moved beyond the realm of slavery. He wants a drink, a drink. If you want a woman, get a woman. They enjoyed the undeserved luxury of being able to get their hands on almost anything they wanted.

In the end, a human victory achieved by one slave, who started as a slave and was given the last name Albert.

But all of this ended when Lugnica turned 20.

There have been many foreign enemies who have been aiming for the enormous wealth accumulated by the high-ranking officials of Hernot for decades. The reason why they failed to invade Hernot every time was because it was a country under the protection of the guardian dragon Tritier.

However, the moment when one of Hernot’s fathers, who had accumulated wealth by making reverse dividends in Lugnica’s early games, became blinded by abnormal s*xual desire and touched the mermaids placed under the protection of Tritier. Tritier judged Hernot as the sea dragon Tritier, who ruled the southern sea, not Hernot’s guardian dragon.

In the absurd situation where Hernot, which had achieved such brilliant wealth, was completely submerged in water overnight, Lugnica began to swim towards the mainland, fueled by its endless fighting spirit.

Because she has completely adapted to life in the arena, Lugnica, who has come to regard only life-and-death struggle as a joy in life, is determined to survive in order to feel the pleasure of winning a battle just once more.

However, it was realistically impossible for Lugnica, who had never even swam, to reach the land by swimming a distance of tens to hundreds of kilometers even with the minimum catch. The moment when Lugnica, sinking beneath the surface in the middle of the open sea, gave up and tried to accept her own death.

[A rather interesting guy has reached out to me. It’s the first time since the old commitment to see someone with such a fighting spirit in a mere human body.]

A rope was put down on Lugnika.

[I don’t want to die like this without being able to resolve that lost struggle. Serve me If you do, the way to live will be opened.]

It didn’t matter to him whether the rope was rotten or golden.

[If you serve me, I will also give you the strength to compete with those far stronger than yourself.]

That rope was an offer that Lugnica could never refuse, and had no reason to refuse.

[All you have to do is to struggle and struggle like you’ve lived so far. I just have to dedicate the glory of all those battles to me.]

‘I will serve you willingly.’

That’s why there was no hesitation in Lugnika’s answer.

[Welcome, Lugnica Albern. My second apostle.]

With those words, Lugnica passed out in a depressing sensation as if she were dreaming.

When Lugnica woke up after being washed up on an unknown sandy beach as time passed, there was a gospel on his stomach.

Vivere Est Pugnare.

Fight is my way of living, and living is my fight.

I dedicate this fight to my god.

Boom! Kwaaang!

Even Adele, who had easily dodged the War Hammer that had been swung through the air, was tongue-in-cheek at its power. The reason why that weapon maintains its shape even when the ground shakes and cracks is probably because it is a weapon imbued with holy power.

Thanks to her memories of previous episodes, Adele was well aware of the strength of Tauros in that form. Having risen to the level of a Master, even if he strengthened his body with mana, Tauros was superior in terms of pure strength.

In addition, his animalistic sense of battle made up for the lack of skill with ferocity like a beast.

“Ha ha ha ha!”

Adele, who had been avoiding Tauros’s attacks with minimal movement while exploding her light beam, lightly thrust her sword into his eyes for a moment.

“Chit!”

Seeing Tauros aiming for his head precisely and twisting his neck to avoid the point of the thrown sword, Adele kicked his tongue and stepped back from him. The pointy end of the war hammer that narrowly passed the spot would have hit Adele directly in the head if it had been just half a second later.

If that were the case, Adele would have died instantly without question.

There was no form or expression in Taurus’ attacks, but he was a tricky opponent that couldn’t even be compared to dealing with wild animals.

The advantage of attack range that comes from handling weapons and physical abilities beyond human limits.

In addition, it was not so easy to damage the weapon because it protected the war hammer, which was made of metal even to the handle, with holy power.

“Where did the confidence from earlier go and are you so focused on avoiding it! Don’t just run away like a coward, fight against me!”

“You will hear all the crazy sounds…”

Adele’s expression naturally frowned. It didn’t feel good to think that anyone who heard it would know that she was struggling against only one half like this.

She said that, but she did not intend to give in to provocation. If you are a warrior who has reached the state of Jago, you must always maintain your composure during battle.

Once again, Taurus’ War Hammer swung with a strong wind, but Adele’s response was quite different from before.

The light of the scattered aura was shining even brighter from Adele’s sword, which blocked the war hammer rushing towards her. Like the moonlight in the night sky that makes the stars around it fade, the light of the holy power dwelling in the War Hammer loses its power in front of it.

Quang!

A dull noise that could not be attributed to two iron weapons clashing spread out, and at the same time, both weapons were thrown back due to the impact.

However, unlike Tauros, who had a surprised expression, Adele was smiling. Adele’s sword, which absorbed the shock very easily by applying strength to his whole body, rushed like lightning and dug into Tauros’ body.

The long stab wound from the chest to the side was saved thanks to Tauros retreating at the last moment. The blood that flowed from the wide open wound stained Tauros’ burnt copper skin dark red.

“Kuhh! Yes, it tastes like this!”

Tauros keeps his place and smiles ferociously even though he has suffered deep wounds. Then his skin started to turn from a healthy copper color to a deep red color.

“Hahaha, yes. This is exactly what I wanted…! You who go against the laws of heaven, try to entertain me more! So that I can offer the best battle that will never happen again to my god!”

Tauros, whose whole body is completely bloody, bursts into light and swings the War Hammer even more vigorously. Breathing, physical strength management, and form were all messed up, but now the incomprehensible power that is difficult to describe as supernatural power covers all those shortcomings.

However, Adele felt no threat in all the attacks. In her eyes, it was just a monotonous movement.

Unfortunately for her Tauros, her intermittent attacks hit her ground, and only her fluttering fragments of the earth and the wind that her warhammer brushed past her reached her. It was everything.

“You haven’t really changed as of now, have you?”

The expression of Tauros at the voice he heard in his ear, no. Not only his expression, but his whole body stiffened.

“Did you know that you are the easiest to deal with among the Twelve Apostles? Losing reason and falling into instinct while fighting is no different than sticking out your neck and asking the Master to kill you.”

Tauros belatedly tried to turn his head and body, but his body didn’t even move.

Precisely, it would be correct to say that I couldn’t do it. Because his breath had already stopped.

The bull’s head of Taurus falls behind Adele, who lightly landed on the ground and lowered her sword, and her body leaned one step later.

‘More eleven.’

When Adele finished off Tauros, the knights of Isvant had also dealt with most of the Orcs in his village.

“Thank you for your hard work, Sir Ludmeyer. I never thought you would deal with monsters like that so easily…”

Rufus, who approached Adele and spoke to him, admired the orcs affected by the power of Taurus and the corpse of the culprit.

“Is this the master…”

But after hearing what he muttered, Adele couldn’t help but laugh bitterly. Since the master was a realm of perfect talent, you should be able to reach it if you work hard, because you couldn’t give false consolation with the same feeling.

Still, as she wanted to say something, Adele, who was rolling her head, sensed something strange. When she hurriedly looked down at the ring on her finger, what caught her eyes was the appearance of a magic stone dyed in deep red.

“Luke…!”

The crisis was just beginning to unfold.
