Regressor Instruction Manual

Chapter 310: Jung Hayan’s Instruction Manual (4)

Even though I rubbed my eyes once, I could still see the same thing in front of me.

It was not a dream. Certainly, a large dark red sphere was falling from the sky.

“What is that…”

Shaolin was also flustered. She looked out the window and muttered to herself, and she looked even more bewildered than me.

It was obvious why she had such an expression.

‘There…’

The place where the magic fell off was the place where people from the Republic lived.

‘That’s crazy…’

Baaaaaaaannngg!

With that sound, huge magical power began to strike the protective magic that protected the city.

The people who were eating with us screamed at the ridiculous scene.

With a crackling sound, the basic magic that protected the city was shattered, and the enormous magical power was sucked into the gap in an instant.

All of this happened within a few seconds.

Amazingly, the impact did not reach here.

I didn’t know what kind of magic it was, but it seemed to be a kind of magic aimed only at the exact target point.

It was not an element type. There was something like black magic, but I couldn’t feel it.

The expression of simply swallowing up space would be appropriate. It was an aggregate of high-density magical power.

‘That’s crazy… crazy!’

No wonder I was more surprised than the dinosaurs watching the meteor fall.

I didn’t know what was going on, but I wondered if it would be better to run away from here right now.

I didn’t know what others would think, but at least from my point of view; it was like a natural disaster that I couldn’t understand.

‘Is it really a natural disaster…’

Kaaaahhhhhhhhh!

The sound I heard for the first time in my life began to ring in my ears.

The sphere that had fallen in the specific place rotated fiercely and completely consumed the space it was in.

There was nothing in it, leaving only a neat section that looked as if a paper had been stapled.

Even in other places, the dark red magic power was falling. It wasn’t a number that could be said to be that many, but it was enough to turn the city into an abyss.

As if that thing was lucky, it swallowed most of the minerals at random.

That’s the only place that thing hit directly.

Kaaaaahhhhhhhhh!

After the chain of sounds got smaller and smaller, I began to see a landscape that I had never seen with any magic.

‘How can this be? No, what is that?’

I admit that magic was a science that even I couldn’t understand, but I couldn’t believe what I was seeing with my own eyes. If I hadn’t felt artificial magic, I would have thought it wasn’t magic. I would have concluded that it was one of the peculiar natural phenomena occurring on the continent like a magical storm.

I was not the only one who was speechless at this ridiculous situation. The restaurant had now gone silent.

Beginning with the cry of a baby heard from somewhere, everyone started rushing outside. Of course, we were no exception.

“I have to go.”

“I’ll go with you.”

She seemed to be thinking for a moment, but I could see her nodding. She must have felt that it would be fine if I went, too.

Immediately going out of the restaurant, I could see the surrounding scenery going wild. I could see investigators dispatched from Laios running, and monks and ascetics looked for any injured people.

Wizards who came out late also seem to have moved early.

It was commendable that they responded faster than I thought, but…

‘The level of the wizard is low here.’

It was hard to expect them to figure out something. Perhaps the most they could do was control the surroundings and pretend to do something.

Civilians were running in all directions in the meantime. In fact, Shaolin’s minions showed similar reactions to them. It felt like they all didn’t know how to handle this.

I was not very different from them either. I had to worry about a second bombing right now. That was why I had stuck with Shaolin.

We headed to the place where the first magic fell in an instant.

‘What the…’

After arriving at the place, I saw a magnificent sight.

‘They must have all died.’

I didn’t know what happened to the people inside, but I bet they couldn’t even rescue the bodies of the ones that had gotten properly hit,

‘Are the pro and the big guy dead…?’

However, seeing some people gathered, it seemed that my wish had not come true.

As I passed through the crowd, I saw the pro and the big guy that I’d seen a few days ago. Only three minions survived. The rest were all dead.

I didn’t know how they were able to survive this mess, but I was able to nod when I saw the big guy’s one arm twisting in an inexplicable direction.

He must have saved the pro.

“Shit… Ahem. Damn!”

He was coughing while being treated by several priests.

By immediately receiving the healing magic, they could save his arm, but it seemed that he needed a little more time to recover his entire body.

On the one hand, I thought that it was amazing to have survived such a thing, but it seemed that he went too far.

Jin Qing was looking at the neatly-cut section while calming others.

It seemed that he was doing his own analysis.

I was not the one who did this, but I started getting anxious for some reason.

“I was wondering if… this…”

“I can guarantee this has nothing to do with the State this time.”

“…”

“…”

“Is it true?”

“Yes.”

This time, I had nothing to be ashamed of.

Shaolin, looking at me quietly, slowly nodded. She seemed to have understood that I was not stupid enough to do something like this.

Launching a preemptive strike against the Republic in a neutral country, it was extremely sensitive.

There was no single reason why we, were are staying here to form an alliance with Laios, would do this. Of course, I would be grateful if they thought so, too, but…

‘They can bog me down.’

If they wanted to twist my words, they could do it anyhow.

First, I needed to come up with a solution. Although we were together, I had to open my mouth in a hurry.

“It’s better to go and talk, Shaolin. I have to look into the situation separately, too…”

“Yes. I think it’s better, too. Before that big buy gets angered again… We’ll only know what happened after looking into it, but right now, they have no choice but to doubt you. Please understand that much.”

“Yes. Of course.”

‘Understand, my ass… I hope they don’t make up a scenario.’

The probability was low, but it was not impossible.

“I won’t see you off.”

“Okay.”

After talking to me, Shaolin approached Jin Qing and Valentin.

I heard them talking, but I couldn’t listen to it clearly.

They would contact the Republic immediately, and an investigation team would be dispatched immediately.

Of course, I thought that the State would also send an investigation team.

The powerless Laios would not be able to prevent a forceful group under the name of the investigation group from entering the country. Eventually, the situation would become more complicated.

‘It should be absurd from their point of view, but…’

The case had already happened and could no longer be reversed.

By now, the Queen of Laios might be having a headache.

When I looked back again, I saw those who had already controlled other people’s access and started investigating them.

At first glance, it seemed like there was nothing wrong with the State camp, but since it was a sensitive issue, I have to investigate.

If it was Jung Hayan, she might find out something…

‘Fuck…’

“Shit.”

I thought out loud automatically.

Unknowingly, the curse words continue to linger around my mouth. Suspicion began to dwell inside of me.

‘It’s not, right?’

No. It can’t be. Jung Hayan couldn’t possibly be the culprit.

‘The motivation is also uncertain.’

It was already foreseen that she would cause some accident from the time she gained 99 magic power.

Although she was being repressed by Cha Hee-ra right now, the fact that Jung Hayan could run wild at any time did not change.

She was very quiet lately, but because of that, I felt even more anxious. Since the incident with the Republic people, I hadn’t seen her in some time.

Of course, we met occasionally and spent time, but I wasn’t confident that it was enough to care for Jung Hayan.

The date was ruined, and we even got a strange misunderstanding, so if she thought it was all because of the Republic guys, she could easily take extreme measures.

I mean, unless there was no one to stop her.

‘No. Maybe not. It won’t be.’

However, within my common sense, the number of people who could demonstrate this kind of magic is limited, and of course, the number one priority was Jung Hayan.

It was her.

The idea that it wasn’t the time to cover up for others suddenly awakened. For now, I had no choice but to head to the camp of the State.

‘Shit. Damn. Damn!’

As I ran in a hurry, I saw those who were definitely located nearby. There was no way they wouldn’t have come out after all this fuss.

They were very well established, and access was controlled so that even those from Laios could not approach.

I didn’t know who took these measures, but the decision was perfect.

As soon as I threw my coat and walked inside, the Red Mercenary guild members guided me, and the wizards who came with Yuno Kasugano were also pursuing magical power or collecting fallen fragments.

“You’re late, honey. Where have you been? Did you see the magic falling?”

“Yes. I came because I saw it. I was looking at the situation elsewhere. This…”

“No, wait, just in case, I have to ask first. Did you do this?”

“No. I’m not related to this.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes. It’s really not me.”

I don’t know why she asked me if I did it, but Cha Hee-ra nodded for now.

It seems like she thought that I had done something.

Cha Hee-ra tried to tell me something, but this time I had no choice but to interrupt her.

Because it wasn’t her that was urgent at this moment.

“Have you seen Hayan? Nuna?”

“There she is.”

She said, nodding as if she understood the meaning of my question.

As I moved my gaze along her finger, I was able to see Jung Hayan working hard on the investigation with her back on me.

‘You didn’t do it, right?’

The way she didn’t come to me at once was undoubtedly suspicious.

I called Jung Hayan, and she began to turn her head with a slightly nervous expression.

‘Please…’
