Reader’S Regeneration Life [EN]: Chapter 383

383―――――

Not yet!

“What the hell is this crazy bitch?”

As Zion and Kim Yu-hyun’s group entered the barracks, Lilith, who had been hiding, fearing that her energy might be detected by the highest-ranking celestials, immediately cursed.

She had made eye contact with Shaiella, who confidently fluttered her wings as she entered behind Kim Yu-hyun.

Already in a foul mood because of the thoroughly torn-up pigeon caught a little while ago, it was only natural that Lilith would feel resentful when another celestial, who didn’t seem to be a prisoner, entered.

Normally, celestials would react the same way Lilith did, but Shaiella blinked a few times and looked at Kim Yu-hyun as if demanding an explanation.

“Later.”

“Ah, I understand.

Yu-hyun-nim.”

“…Yu-hyun-nim?”

Lilith looked at Zion as if asking what was going on.

Zion answered very honestly and coolly, ‘I don’t know either.’

Thanks to that, Lilith wore a bewildered expression, but what could she do? She had to listen to the explanation herself.

“Is everyone here, Lysi?”

“Yes, Master.”

Zion’s group included Lilith and Lysikida, Zhan, and Kim Yu-hyun’s group included Shaiella and Ekaterina.

Kim Yu-hyun intentionally left out Eos, as there seemed to be many uncomfortable aspects for him to explain right now.

Seeing Ekaterina looking at Shaiella with a very displeased expression, it seemed to prove that his decision was correct.

Zhan promised Eos to keep everything he heard here a secret and took his seat.

“First of all, as Young Master Zion’s predicted, the celestials secretly entered Hispania’s south through the port of Nudia, aiming for the south.”

“What’s the scale?”

“It was Shaiella and dozens of celestials.”

“Did they fly across the sea?

Even if it’s adjacent, it’s still a few hours away.”

Shaiella carefully raised her hand.

Seeing her like a child wanting to give a presentation, Zion hesitated for a moment before gesturing for her to speak. She smiled and stood up.

“To be precise, I borrowed Young Master Zion Klausen’s idea.”

“…My idea?”

“Yes.

The ship you used in the pirate subjugation before.

A ship of that type that carried griffins and rose into the sky whenever needed.

I used that.

The celestials rode on it and approached the coast at night, minimizing the travel distance.”

“The celestials can’t fly infinitely, and most of the high-ranking and highest-ranking celestials are on the Nudia front.

That’s right, isn’t it?”

“That’s right.

You’re accurate.”

At Shaiella’s words, Zion let out a short laugh.

He didn’t expect them to use it as is, and to think that they used his idea to launch a secret weapon, only to be caught by Kim Yu-hyun, made him laugh.

“Now that I mention it, I’m curious.

Yu-hyun-nim?

How did you know I was there and wait for me?

Did you sense something or…?”

“Even though it was night, there was still moonlight, and something very white and shiny was coming from afar.”

“Ah…”

Don’t tell me they didn’t even turn off the lights while sailing at night for a surprise attack?

If we had done that with our ship in our world, we would have been beaten to death.

Zion muttered to himself and listened to Kim Yu-hyun’s next story.

Of course, the celestials who flew from the ship were all shot down by Kim Yu-hyun.

He took care of them one by one and finally defeated Shaiella.

Originally, he was going to kill them all on the spot, clean up, and head straight to Zion, but suddenly he had a good idea.

That was to extract information from this woman who was still breathing.

Since he also needed to learn about the celestials who would be his main enemies, Kim Yu-hyun roughly dragged her away and began interrogation in earnest.

“Of course, she didn’t open her mouth.

So, I had no choice but to give her a little stimulation.”

“A little stimulation?

Ah, you tortured her?”

“Yes.”

To you, a little stimulation means torture.

What a scary guy.

Thinking so, Zion was amazed that Shaiella was still alive.

Even if it wasn’t dismemberment, Kim Yu-hyun knew a lot about all kinds of torture.

The reason was simple.

He had been severely tortured in the Murim world [a world of martial arts and cultivation] when he was still weak.

In addition, when people around him were captured by enemies, they were subjected to the same terrible torture, so Kim Yu-hyun often caught the enemies and used the same methods to take revenge.

“I told her I would kill her comfortably if she told me the information I wanted.

But, as expected, she never opened her mouth.

So, I gradually increased the intensity and said.

Tell me what you know, and I’ll kill you comfortably.”

“You inflicted such cruel torture.

But I still don’t understand why the woman who was tortured is following you so obediently.”

“It’s simple.

That crazy celestial just likes being tortured.”

Ekaterina, who had been silent until now, shook her head as if she was going crazy and opened her mouth, thanks to which everyone gathered there.

To be exact, everyone except Kim Yu-hyun and Shaiella couldn’t hide their bewildered expressions.

They wondered if they had misheard something, but that didn’t seem to be the case.

According to Ekaterina, this woman, this celestial named Shaiella, the descendant of light, had that kind of tendency…

“You’re saying things a little strangely, Ekaterina.”

“Did I say anything wrong?

It’s accurate!”

“It’s wrong.

I’m just saying that from the perspective of someone who educates, the position of the person being educated is better.

Nothing more, nothing less.”

Zion had the words ‘Isn’t that the same thing?’ stuck in his throat, but he decided to move on.

He didn’t have enough time to pay attention to such trivial matters in the current situation.

Afterward, Shaiella told them all the stories of the celestials that she had told Kim Yu-hyun.

Seven horn blasts, their own task of turning the world to ashes.

To that end, they first start by making the demons unable to recover, and those disguised as demon followers cause incidents everywhere to incite a holy war.

Thus, the humans, who are the most numerous, suffer the most sacrifices, completely defeating the demons and completely eliminating or incapacitating two powerful rivals and the most troublesome race.

Afterward, they stir up strife between the different races and humans, causing even more blood to flow, and at the same time, they deploy radical fairies to stick to the leadership of each country, from extracting information to ultimately controlling them at will.

Finally, when the whole world falls into chaos and everyone cries out for light and only hopes for salvation, the descendants of light appear with light and put an end to this chaotic world, telling everyone to go to the new world, resulting in everything burning and disappearing.

Each and every one of them was something that everyone would believe even if it was said to be the evil scheme of ordinary demons.

But the fact that the celestials, the descendants of light, were plotting and trying to execute it, and that some of it had even been executed, made it impossible for those gathered there not to be surprised.

“They do all sorts of things.”

The first to speak was Lilith, who roughly knew about the celestials’ work.

She had heard a rough outline of the story through Ru, but this was the first time she had heard such a detailed story, so she couldn’t come up with anything other than a dumbfounded reaction.

“It’s absurd.

To think that this was the reality of what those so-called followers of light believe in.

It was a great relief that we beat them up and sent them back when they came to our northern lands to spread their teachings.”

Zhan, as a northern warrior who hated dishonorable acts the most, was disgusted.

Lysikida had already fought directly with the celestials and knew that their intentions were not pure, so the shock didn’t seem to be great.

‘If the commanders of Hispania or Nudia were here, there would have been a big fuss.’

Of course, they will also be informed of everything.

Not only the commanders but also the core forces of Nudia, including Aive, and Saradin, the king of Nudia.

And also to Queen Vanessa, who is waiting for news in Hispania.

However, in sharing information, they cannot provide everything, of course.

Even if they are on the same boat, Zion believed that it would be beneficial for each other if this side took everything and they only learned about 70 percent.

“Lysi.”

“Yes, Master.”

“By now, Ludwig will have roughly reorganized the Hispania army.

The same goes for Nudia.

Go to Ludwig and Aive and tell them that there will be an emergency meeting in 30 minutes, okay?”

“Yes, I will!”

After Lysikida left the barracks, Zhan said that he also had to attend the meeting, so he would go back and prepare, and then got up from his seat.

As even Zhan left the barracks, Lilith stared at Shaiella with fierce eyes and said.

“Zion.

You can’t trust everything.

Maybe even leaking that information is part of a trap.”

“It’s not a trap.

I can swear on my name, on my life, demon.”

“Saying that makes it even more suspicious!

What celestial in the world can be so calm in front of a demon!”

Zion shrugged at Lilith’s scream.

In fact, the celestials hated the demons, so it’s not that he doesn’t understand Lilith, who is shouting that Shaiella’s reaction is suspicious.

However, even so, this celestial provided too much information to be considered a trap.

Even the information was all facts, things that matched the contents of the novel that Zion knew.

If it were a trap, it would aim for their victory in any case, so they would have to leave at least a corner for them to use, but in this way, it was like advertising the next move of the allies instead of using the other side or inciting confusion.

“Shaiella, was it?”

“That’s right, Young Master Zion Klausen.”

“Let me ask you one thing.

What do you get from doing that?”

“Excuse me?”

“What do you get from cooperating with us like this, even betraying your own kind?”

It’s an obvious question, but it’s a very important issue.

If this woman really intends to betray, you need to know the reason.

What does she want, what is she thinking that a woman in the position of a high-ranking celestial suddenly turns around and joins here?

Even celestials are not perfect beings like gods, so it’s natural to waver.

Zion just wanted to know what shook this celestial and finally knocked her down.

“…It was new.”

“What do you mean?”

“All forms of education I received from Yu-hyun-nim, that is, pain, were new.

The one who saved me from this unsatisfactory world and took me to a more ecstatic and enjoyable place.

I thought I would go with him to the place where he is.

That’s all.”

“…”

Shaiella, muttering as if she had said something incredibly sacred, even clasping her hands together.

Thanks to that, not only Zion but also Lilith, Ekaterina, and even Kim Yu-hyun wore disgusted expressions.

He would rather it be a lie, but it was even more disgusting because it was a situation where only heartfelt sincerity was revealed no matter where he looked.

“…You’ve been through a lot, Kim Yu-hyun.

I think you’ll have a hard time in the future too.”

“Thank you.”

At Zion’s words, Kim Yu-hyun glanced to his sides and sighed as he answered.

Right Ekaterina, left Shaiella.

Even one is enough to be annoying, but he has to live with women who have similar tendencies while seeming different.

Even they are not human, but one is a dragon and the other is a celestial, so Zion couldn’t help but feel a little sorry.

But what can he do?

That’s the contradiction of the main character.

If you’re a main character, shouldn’t you just drive around with all the capable and good-looking women, regardless of their tendencies!

‘Of course, I took Lucia and Lia, who are still in the normal category… but I still left Eos, Yu-hyun.

I’ve conceded a lot.’

After muttering to himself, Zion asked Kim Yu-hyun, who was sighing deeply, another question.

“What about the work I ordered separately?

You took care of that too, right?”

“Of course.

Everything was fine from heading west from the south, and then coming all the way here again, but Shaiella was falling behind, so it was a little late.”

“Isn’t that because Yu-hyun-nim is too fast?”

“That’s right, that’s right.

Kim Yu-hyun, haven’t I told you that you’re a monster?

Are you even human!”

Shaiella and Ekaterina, unable to stand the gap, opened their mouths again.

Of course, Kim Yu-hyun turned his head slightly and showed a reaction that he was annoyed, so they immediately shut their mouths.

‘That’s really like raising them.’

Kim Yu-hyun seems to be taking a harem as the main character, but somehow the direction seems to be flowing in a very strange way, but Zion said that he didn’t think that part was his job.

“The answer.

What was their answer?”

“Don’t you already know?”

“…Well, if they hadn’t given me the answer I wanted, you wouldn’t be here.”

Kim Yu-hyun would have done something, whether it was threatening or showing force.

For him, showing strength once was easier and simpler than a hundred words.

“They said they would move immediately after I left, so they would have gathered all available people and started moving by now.

The news would have already been delivered to the Hispania royal castle, so it would be enough time to reach the eastern part of the kingdom by now.”

“They have a movement speed that is incomparable to ordinary human infantry.”

At Zion’s words, Kim Yu-hyun nodded with a gentle smile.

As soon as he finished the work in the south, he ran like crazy again and arrived at the west of the kingdom.

It was their residence where the fairies and beastmen lived.

There, he used Shaiella, who had surrendered to him, to completely shatter the illusions they had about the celestials.

In addition, he warned that if you hesitate because you’re just trying to test the waters, you’ll be massacred by the celestials with their eyes turned upside down if Hispania and Nudia are defeated, and even if Hispania wins, you might be hated for enjoying a free victory from behind, and the peace you’ve gained will all be burned and disappear.

―Fight and claim your rights with dignity.

Are you hiding behind the human race and trying to get a free victory?

―

Kim Yu-hyun was really good at scratching their pride, and of course, among the beastmen and fairies who thought they were better than humans, the opinion that there was no need to hesitate anymore came out.

The leaders of the beastmen that Zion had already worked on, and the elders of the fairies who had doubts about the celestials, immediately moved, and as a result, when Kim Yu-hyun left the west, the armies of the two races began to move without Hispania’s request.

‘If we ask first, if we reach out, we’ll become too arrogant.

Rather, we have to make them so eager that they can’t stand not coming.’

As Zion thought, the two races, who began to move in earnest when they thought they could really die if they were just hiding, were now on the move.

Now, the main characters, supporting actors, and extras have all entered the stage.

All that’s left is to sprint to the climax.

“Lilith-nim.”

“Huh?”

“Where is that woman?

The pigeon that Kim Yu-hyun shot down.”
