Regressor, Possessor, Reincarnator

Episode 44

“Confucius, you don’t need to look at it yourself. Curse can be transferred!”

Soned Sangju stopped Allen with an anxious face.

What will happen if the curse is transferred to Prince Allen? Aside from his fondness for Confucius, his reputation was at stake.

“I understand the generosity of Confucius. However, there is also an elixir, so there is no need to look at it yourself.”

“No, something similar could happen again, so why not check it out yourself?”

“Oh, Confucius!”

Karik was startled by the change in appearance from the way he entered the room, but only nodded after hearing the story he was bragging about.

‘The story seems to have ended well.’

It is said that he arranged a meeting with Soned at the will of Confucius, but Karik felt very sorry for him because he learned of his situation after a few days of acquaintance.

Seeing Soned’s improved expression, Karik felt proud of himself.

“Prince Allen, did the story end well?”

“Yeah, I was lucky. I was lucky to hear the story of Karik Sang-ju, just in case, and to keep Banshee’s tears in my pocket.”

“… I hope they are the tears of that Banshee.”

As Karik turned his head, Soned carefully pulled it out of his arms and showed the purple elixir in front of him.

“Isn’t it something that is hard to find even in the royal capital, this precious thing… .”

Karik looked at Allen with a surprised face.

Banshee’s Tears weren’t terribly difficult to make. Because it’s hard to find Banshee.

However, even if it was successfully made, it belonged to a product that is difficult to find in high-ranking aristocrats or royal families.

Especially since it was the most effective among the things that cursed.

Allen smiled and opened his mouth as if nothing was wrong.

“The value of each person is different.”

Just as the values ​​of slaves and commoners are different, so are the values ​​of commoners and nobles.

Comparing the value of the elixir purchased by a merchant’s son and a high-ranking nobleman with a large sum of money, of course, the latter would be more valuable.

“For me, I just judged that the favor given to Soned Sangju was more valuable than this elixir.”

“that… , that is an overstatement.”

Sonned was grateful for his kindness, but at the same time couldn’t hide his bitterness.

‘I owe you a bigger debt with this.’

Even though his son was suffering from a curse, he hated himself for calculating the value from a merchant’s point of view in favor of others.

“That’s it.”

It does not say that men are equal, that all life is noble. It doesn’t make any sense, because it’s just a mouthful.

It was simply invested because the future value of Soned was incomparable to this elixir.

‘I paid off the debt I borrowed in my previous life.’

In order to reduce Julius’s influence, he also looked for the Demon Contract Books he had obtained here.

‘In order to proceed with several things at the same time, you have to take a certain amount of damage.’

There was only one chance now.

The time when Julius vacated the mansion.

Time to prepare for the future without any interruption.

So Allen was guided by Soned and arrived at the room where his son was said to be resting.

“Is it here?”

“Yes, here it is.”

Sonned tried to go in first. Although nothing has happened so far, the curse may suddenly run rampant.

“I will go in first, Confucius… .”

However, the moment he opened his mouth first, his purpose could not be achieved due to the hand that opened the door first behind him.

“Hey, Confucius!”

“It’s okay. Such a curse can be stopped enough.”

Not even a direct, widespread curse could not penetrate the body of a strong giant.

Allen pushed Sonned aside and went inside.

The room was quiet.

He said that Sang-joo’s son is resting, so he must have taken the best measures.

Allen strode forward and came straight to the bed in the center.

‘… Young man.’

Have you just turned fifteen?

However, the pale complexion caused by the curse, and the body thin enough to show bones, made him look several years younger than his original age.

However, it was not clear whether this change was due to a curse or an illness.

‘It would be nice if I simply got sick… .’

It can’t be.

Allen immediately showed his senses.

A dense net spread widely and confirmed the body of Sang-ju Sang-ju’s son.

Threads spewed out from Allen’s core and, according to his will, adhered to various parts of Sang-ju’s son’s body.

As I focused more closely, I could feel the vitality of my body slowly waning, as if someone had taken it away.

Now, thanks to the numerous measures taken by the top-tier stock, it is maintaining the status quo, but it is not known how long it will hold up.

‘Your vitality is going somewhere.’

The warlocks who were also subjugated were for blindfolds.

Julius’s heading to Gavia was something that had not happened before the return, so he could only guess, but seeing the condition of the son of Sang Sang-ju, he was sure of it.

‘They haven’t been subjugated either.’

Allen rechecked what he had planned inside, as it was expected, while feeling the slightest bit of bitterness at the fact that he could not completely prevent this from happening.

“… Okay, are you all right, there’s something wrong with you… .”

Linbell and Sonned, behind them, rushed over to see if something had happened as Allen stood quietly near the bed.

“… No, I just checked the status of the curse for a while.”

“Well, then… .”

Sonned looked at Allen with anticipation, and Allen nodded as if he was right.

“The curse is strong, but not enough to stop Banshee’s tears.”

“As I said, right now… !”

“Soned.”

Allen paused for a moment, then remained silent for a moment.

Sonned was nervous about seeing Confucius for nothing, but fortunately it wasn’t the kind of bad thing he thought.

“Can you help me?”

“One sip is enough for a curse.”

I was worried at first.

How to use the remaining elixirs.

‘Should I keep it for later or use it for others?’

I wasn’t sure if I’d be able to get something like Banshee’s Elixir again if I used it like that, and I needed a way to protect the curse for the future.

‘Just because I don’t use it doesn’t mean there’s a problem with the plan.’

When Allen’s thoughts went there.

[…] … .]

A foul stench from somewhere lingered in his nostrils.

like inanimate. The vicious stench that stabbed him with his lifeless, empty gaze.

‘… Are you turning away from those who are cursed?’

What makes such an action different from your previous life?

Allen’s revenge was not to be sacrificed by anyone.

‘They are the inhabitants of the counties before they weigh the profits.’

So, only the son of Sangju-ju can be saved.

‘Even if you use all the remaining elixir, you cannot save everyone under the curse. However.’

Maybe I should at least try to save it.

“I do not believe that the only victim of this curse is the son of Sangju-ju.”

“that… , Yes. That’s right.”

Anyway, this curse will end in a month or so.

“There will be countless victims. I don’t know if anyone is already late. No, it must have been too late. It must have been some time since the curse spread. However… .”

When Julius arrives at the estate.

When an elf escapes from the young divine forest.

‘We can end this situation.’

“I want to at least try to save it.”

Allen appealed to Sonned with a sad face.

For Young Jimin.

For those who suffer from the curse.

“Isn’t everyone under my protection?”

for me.

Soned looked at him like that with a confused face, then closed his eyes tightly and answered.

“… Do it, no, please. Confucius.”

“Thank you.”

Allen still had a good smile.

Unlike before, it was a handful of innocent smiles.

Sang-joo’s son was immediately given a sip of the elixir.

The elixir took effect immediately as soon as one sip was passed.

“Collock-, Cologne-”

“Eric! Eric! Are you okay!”

“Oh, father? what is this… .”

“Are you okay? No pain anywhere?”

“Come to think of it… .”

When Allen revived through the sense of which he had not recovered, he could feel that most of the curse that had been lurking in his body had been weakened.

‘If it’s like that, I think I’ll get better if I rest for a few weeks.’

Soned, along with his son, Eric, who has been awake for a long time, hastily bowed his head to Allen.

“Thank you so much for your help.”

“you’re welcome. On the contrary, I feel a little sad that I think it is a little late.”

When Allen smiled bitterly and apologized, Sonned quickly waved his hand as if he was saying that.

“No, what are you talking about! All thanks to Confucius… .”

“Thank you for saying that.”

Allen waited for the father and son to finish the conversation, and then followed Soned’s guidance to the drawing room.

“Let’s get the exact situation first.”

Allen started talking as soon as he sat down.

“therefore… , when did the curse spread? As far as I know, Julius subjugated the warlock who spread the curse.”

“Can I explain this to you?”

When Soned paused Karik for a moment, Karik readily agreed as if it was okay.

“You’ve been here longer than I have, so you know better. it’s okay.”

“thank you. So, this is probably the part that Confucius was curious about. It was announced that Confucius Julius had subjugated the Warlock, so why is the curse spreading again?”

Soned’s tone was calm.

As his son’s condition improved, he seemed to have regained his usual composure.

“In conclusion, it is true that the curse has subsided after the warlock subjugation. However… It did not disappear.”

Allen recalled memories of the past.

The calamity that will occur in the manor in the next month.

The status of Julius that was raised by resolving it.

“Is it exactly around the end of the harvest festival?”

Soned’s story didn’t last long.

The curse, thought to have disappeared after Julius finished subjugating the warlock near Gavia, began to rise again a few days ago.

He himself did not believe the rumor at first, but when his son was cursed, he had to believe it.

He smiled with an unknown face and continued.

“I didn’t mean to pass it on because it was a common rumor.”

Allen was silent.

However, the heart quickly reaffirmed the plan that had been looming since the time when Banshee’s tears were obtained.

‘At first, I had only a simple framework in mind, but… .’

He changed his mind when he saw that Julius had subjugated the Warlock and the curse that began to recur in the West.

‘This is available.’

Rescue Soned’s son and build a crush on him.

With his cooperation, he helps a cursed person and defeats a witch.

It secretly undermines Julius’s reputation and makes him friendly.

‘There must have been no antipathy towards Julius yet.’

Just because the curse didn’t go away doesn’t mean that Julius subjugated the warlock doesn’t go away.

But what if Allen solves a problem that Julius could not completely solve?

‘They will have no choice but to compare.’

Humans are such creatures.

“Thank you once again for Confucius’ willingness to offer the elixir.”

Soned bowed his head once more.

As he regained his stability, the years of a skilled merchant appeared in his eyes.

“Because Confucius said he would help others, I will gladly follow Confucius’ decision.”

“I, too, will help Confucius!”

Soned seemed to have guessed Allen’s intentions and tried to jump on it, but Karik, who was still just a shabby merchant, was swept away by the atmosphere and sympathized with him.

“then… , I will give you instructions.”

“Please feel free to tell me.”

“Say anything.”

Allen took out the remaining elixir in his arms and offered it to them.

“First, call the nearby alchemists and tell them to dilute this elixir. Until the effect of the elixir does not disappear. Be careful not to steal it.”

When Soned accepted the elixir, he continued speaking to Allen.

“And ask the priest who lives nearby in my name.”

It is difficult to find a priest, but if you search the city, you will be able to find at least one.

They will also be happy to help with this work if they allow for missionary work in the nearby area.

“Also, help those who have been cursed to recover through the herbs above.”

“That word… .”

Allen nodded as if yes.

“I will take care of all the burdens that come with it.”

The upper part of the dyke is the upper part that mainly supplies medicinal herbs, so the quantity will be sufficient.

“I know that Enelia and Linbell will stay here for a few days.”

There was no way Sonned couldn’t understand the meaning of Allen’s words. Soned said firmly, as if it was natural.

“There will be no lies in the calculations.”

‘The work below is finished.’ Now it’s time to kill her witch and let her gossip.

Hearing Allen’s many requests, Sonned closed his eyes as if thinking for a moment, then opened his mouth as if ambiguously.

“… Confucius’ grace will move many people. However… , it will be difficult to break someone else’s curse with this.”

“I will.”

Allen himself had no idea that such a measure would solve the problem.

‘It’s just to show you everything.’

It was just a base work to support future rumors.

He took responsibility and did his best.

So the curse is resolved.

After all, Confucius Allen is superior to Julius.

“… Then what about Confucius?”

At Soned’s question, Allen slowly stood up.

‘Anyway, a curse is extremely weakened when the person who cast the curse dies.’

If she were killed, Allen’s actions were enough to solve the whole situation.

“of course-“

“-I am going to kill the subject of the curse.”
