Regressor Takes Everything
chapter-140

Support Regressor

Kang Yoo-sik, who was shaking, looked at Escar, who had brought him back into the room. "So. Have you made your decision?”

“…Yes." Escar nodded and held out the oath he was holding in his hand. Kang Yoo-sik took it thinking that it must have been autographed. ‘Huh?’

His eyes widened at the empty oath. He had thrown a condition like this, but he didn’t bite. How the hell could a young guy have trouble with his eyes? When Kang Yoo-sik was in an unexpected situation and is dumbfounded inside. Escar, who was watching him, carefully opened his mouth. "I… … Just send it back to the revelation of the Fallen Heaven.”

“What?"

“You can probably get your money back without too much trouble. So just….”

Escar had begged to be sent back without hesitation. Seeing this, Kang Yoo-sik made a puzzled expression. Although the facilities of Tacheon's Revelation were not bad, it was difficult to say that it was better than life enjoying various benefits and freedom. ‘Something… feels strange.’

Kang Yoo-sik, who sensed something, activated the wise man's eyes while repeatedly telling Escar's story to send him back. The movement of magical power was clearly captured in both eyes, and as he added to the maximization of cognition, he began to feel even the slightest flow of magical power in his body.

In a world made only of magic, Kang Yoo-sik was looking at Escar's magic for a long time. Slowly, some strange magic wriggled faintly inside, and at the same time, Escar's story was strangely twisted. It was like he was blocking him from saying something. Kang Yoo-sik’s eyes flashed at the familiar effect. ‘A pledge?’

The moving mechanism as well as putting restrictions on actions were obviously pledges. The question was, who made this pledge to Escar? Kang Yoo-sik, who was thinking of various possibilities, suddenly remembered her before returning. ‘Come to think of it, this guy should have come out eight years later.’

However, this time, due to the butterfly effect he created, he came out to Walpurgis Night while still young and undeveloped, and in addition, an unknown vow ended up being at stake. In this case, there was only one possibility that could be considered. ‘These bastards… … Are you cheating on me?’

Escar’s outstanding talent was clear from the regression case. However, that did not guarantee that there were no problems in the past. “I-over there….”

“How many skills have you learned?” At Kang Yoo-sik's question, Escar's eyes widened and he nodded. “Yes, yes… … I do have….”

“Then try it.”

“Yes?"

“Try using the strongest one.”

“…Alright." Escar nodded and put his hands together, and after a while, a faint vibration began to vibrate from inside. The ability that Escar used before returning was wave. The exact name of the skill was not known, but the utilization and power were terrifying, such as causing an earthquake by applying it.

Kang Yoo-sik carefully examined the movement of magical power for that core ability that was also used in the future, and after a while, something strange appeared. ‘Why do you move your magic like that?

He appeared to move inefficiently on a road that seemed like it would be okay to just go straight, or it would get cut off by causing a collision. It seemed as if he was intentionally trying to reduce his power, but looking at Escar's attitude, he didn't seem to have that intention at all.

Only then did Kang Yoo-sik, realizing what had happened, smiled and looked at Escar. "You. Aren’t the skills conflicting?”

“… … .”

“And I made an oath so that the revelation of the Fallen couldn’t say that.”

The moment Kang Yoo-shik said his guess, the vow that continued to pressure Escar disappeared. He shouldn't have said it himself, but Kang Yoo-sik found out the secret on his own, and the restrictions were no longer triggered. Realizing that his pledge was gone, Escar put on a slightly refreshed expression and nodded his head gloomily as he recalled his situation. "Yes… … that's right."

This Walpurgis Night was held several years earlier than originally planned, and the number and quality of products to be exhibited were very low. However, no matter how urgent it was, it was necessary to have a certain assortment. There, the method chosen by the Revelation of the Fallen was to exhibit those whose adjustments had not yet been completed. “You have innate magic, so unless I tell you, you'll never notice… … He told me to keep it a secret until then because I will continue to make unfinished adjustments.”

“Indeed. I was trying to extinguish an urgent fire, but this is it….” Even from Escar's point of view, there was nothing good about saying that he had a flaw, so he would cooperate, and he even put a written oath in case of an unexpected situation. It was not a bad method, but the problem was that it did not assume the existence of a character absurd enough to directly see the effect of the oath. “Then, is that why you asked me to send it back?”

“Yes… … You told me I had talent, but… … Actually, it's not at all….” If Kang Yoo-sik had tried to train harshly, Escard would never have tried to reveal this fact. It was a problem that would be resolved in a few years anyway, and he didn't even want to tell it until he was harmed. However, the moment Kang Yoo-sik acknowledged his talent and offered to give him a chance to live as he wanted, Escar chose to return to the Fallen Revelation. It was because he did not want to deceive Kang Yoo-sik, who gave him the first proper opportunity even if he did not know about others.

“I really appreciated the opportunity, but I don’t deserve it… … .” Escar lowered his head and spoke in a hoarse voice. Kang Yoo-sik stared blankly at that despondent figure, then raised the corner of his mouth. “What do you not deserve? Rather, I was satisfied with this incident.”

“Chu, are you satisfied?” Seeing Escar staring at him in bewilderment, Yoo-sik stroked his hair as if to mess it up.

“You. Don't you have a good sense of how useful your confession is against the Revelation of the Fallen?"

“Is this useful information…?” Kang Yoo-sik smiled sinisterly at Escar's questioning whether he didn't understand. “Trust is important in any business. Especially if you lie about the goods, the price goes back many times over.”

He had just tried to skip a few useful skills and get by, but he never thought he would get an opportunity like this. Having another negotiation card to present to Beatrice, Kang Yoo-sik patted Escar on the shoulder with a satisfied expression on his face. "Good job. When this is done… … No, there is no need to procrastinate on this.”

Kang Yoo-sik then took out a ballpoint pen and immediately signed the oath at the bottom and handed it over to Escar. “Sign it.”

“… … .”

A pledge that came back even though it was returned. Escar looked down at what he was holding in his hands and asked with a slightly trembling voice. "Really… … are you okay with this? I can only produce 60% of my original strength…”

“Don't worry. I am an expert on that.”

Wasn't he the one who healed Cha Si-hyun, who had been grunting with two skills before? Now that one can get skill books through Hermit, it was literally a piece of cake. “So don’t worry and sign it. Because I will be responsible for developing your talent.”

He would skip it a bit, but if he were to think about his potential before returning, he would then be able to become strong enough to live on.

“… … .” Escar looked down at the oath as Kang Yoo-sik spoke trustfully, and then he grabbed his ballpoint pen and wrote his name. The Uung pledge was applied to the body, and Kang Yoo-sik, who finished all the procedures, returned his ballpoint pen and patted him on the shoulder.

“It was a lot of trouble.” Escar's shoulders trembled faintly at Kang Yoo-sik's touch, and soon tears fell on the pledge.

Seeing that, Kang Yoo-sik kept silent so as not to break the good atmosphere, and after a while, Escar slowly opened his mouth with a crying voice. "Thank you… … Really… … Thank you… … .” A voice that sounded like something had been knocked over.

He didn’t know what kind of heartache she must have suffered, but Kang Yoo-sik patted her on the shoulder without saying anything. One side of Escar's chest was filled with that warm touch.

[Satisfies the debt relationship condition.]

[Checking the registration of the debtor ‘Escar’, determining the debt grade as A grade.]

[Please disclose your identity in order to use the debt.]

That gratitude rose to the notification window. ‘Mum. He’s a good guy.’

She was going to be a bit disappointed when it was a B grade, but seeing that she came out generously like this, it seemed that she was a kind person who knew how to be grateful. Kang Yoo-sik nodded in satisfaction, erased her notification window, and looked at Escar. “For now, I’ll finish the skills over there and see. In the meantime, I am resting.”

“Yes… … Let me know if you need witnesses or anything like that.”

“Yes, yes. Rest for now.”

Kang Yoo-sik, who stroked Escar's hair, took out her cell phone and called Ahn Seol-ha as he came out.

-What happened? It's not like you're canceling an appointment tonight or something like that, right?

-What? What are you canceling?!

The voices of Ahn Seol-ha and Ban Hye-young could be heard over the phone. Kang Yoo-sik smiled at him and replied straight away.

“It’s not like that. Just pick up an interesting agenda.”

Kang Yoo-sik raised an eyebrow at the plan concocted in her head. “Items from this Walpurgis Night. Can you look them all up?”

* * *

A small restaurant located in the French suburbs. It was a place where people rarely visited, and it was alone in a place away from the surrounding buildings, and the scenery gave an unknown sense of mystery.

And today, there was a slight mirage-like shimmer, but Kang Yoo-sik, who noticed the secret, made a surprised expression. ‘Is it a perception distortion… It's made quite well.'

It may be because it was used as a meeting place, but it was a very good magic circle. Kang Yoo-sik, who looked around with interest, went straight to the entrance. “Come here. Mr. Tommaso.”

As Kang Yoo-sik crossed the magic circle, the door opened and an attendant greeted him, leading him inside. Unlike the ordinary appearance, the luxurious atmosphere was decorated with antique furniture on a wine-colored background. Overall, it was a restaurant with a very similar atmosphere to Beatrice's room. ‘I really like this interior….’

When one was looking around while being guided by the attendant, a sudden, sweet air enveloped the surroundings. Kang Yoo-sik turned his gaze to the room at the strong presence and found Beatrice waiting for him. Violet hair flowing like silk and a black dress. The upper part was made of lace, revealing a lot of flesh color, and even the pit of the stomach was dug, which was quite embarrassing. “Um….”

It seemed that he was controlling the effect of delusion by paying attention to this side, but even without it, it was quite threatening. Kang Yoo-sik, who was contemplating whether or not to use the black lotus flower, moved on with only insurance. As much as he took care of this side and controlled the delusion, he decided to show sincerity himself. ‘Because it will activate immediately if it becomes dangerous anyway.'

Kang Yoo-sik took a deep breath and headed to the opposite side of Beatrice, who looked normal, not a stone. "Ah. Welcome.”

"Thank you for your time. Miss Beatrice.”

“I told you to contact me. That much is natural.”

At the sight of Beatrice smiling at her, Kang Yoo-sik sat down in her seat and looked at her. “You look even more beautiful today.”

“Is that so? Today, I'm a little restrained….”

Kang Yoo-sik smiled slightly at the sight of Beatrice lightly adjusting her clothes. “Even temperance has its own beauty. I feel better because I can see more clearly today.”

When she was wearing Mihok, she looked like a lump of stone because of the blooming black lotus, so she can't help but look prettier today. At Kang Yoo-sik's praise, which was sincere in its own way, Beatrice stared blankly at her. "I've felt it before… Tommaso is good at compliments.”

“It’s because there are many people who try to hide the truth or refuse to admit it.”

“Whoops. okay." Beatrice smiled slightly and looked at him with a pleasant expression on her face.

“Let’s eat first.” As Beatrice beckoned, courses were served one after another, and the two enjoyed their meal while chatting about small things. And after the meal was progressing to some extent, the atmosphere was ripe. Beatrice, who was sipping wine, spoke slowly. “By the way, what did you ask to see today?”

“I have come to tell Beatrice-sama something urgently.”

“What kind of story is it?” Seeing Beatrice looking at him with interest, Kang Yoo-sik responded as planned. “This Walpurgis Night, I recruited one… Do you know about it?”

"Ah… … Yes. I know.”

Beatrice's eyes seemed to be a different story than expected, and Kang Yoo-sik smiled slightly at that reaction. "There's a little problem, so I'm here to tell you."

“… … Are you saying there is something wrong with the item?”

“Yes. That is a very fatal problem.”

At Kang Yoo-shik's story, Beatrice's eyes twinkled as if she had never been disappointed. Those exhibited in Walpurgis Night were recruited and trained by the Revelation of the Fallen Heaven with great care. However, if there was a fatal problem for them, it was a story that could completely cut the leash of the already precarious revelation of the fall. ‘Or a tool to properly blame the person in charge.’

Evidence that, if true, could shake the revelation of Fallen Heaven. Beatrice, who immediately recognized the value of it, put on an interesting expression. “Can you tell me what the problem is?”

"Sure." Lucifer, who seemed to be deeply involved with the Black Dragon Lord, must reduce his influence. That was why Beatrice's existence was absolutely necessary for Kang Yoo-sik. “If you would sign here.”

However, he had no intention of working without pay. Kang Yoo-sik took out a written oath from his bosom and held it out, and Beatrice's eyebrows furrowed slightly when she saw it. Taking out the oath when you haven't brought anything that could be called evidence yet? The moment Beatrice was about to say something…

“If this ends successfully, you could say our relationship has deepened.” Kang Yoo-sik appropriately threw the bait. “So I guess I can show you the expensive ‘box’ I happened to get my hands on then. It is too much for me to have.”

"Box… … You mean…?”

“Yes. If it were Beatrice-sama, I think she would quite like it….”

A revelation from the Fallen Heaven that has a powerful influence on the entire underworld. If they negotiate with Beatrice, who became the de facto owner due to this incident, even a few people would have no choice but to lose. That was because the influence of the revelation of the Fallen Heaven was strong in this other world.

‘But what if that other side holds everything it wants?’

It was a clue to push away the enemies who were trying to take their place. And even things that could solidify the current advantage… If it was a good thing, it would be enough to overturn the advantage. “The stories I just told you. Are you really confident?”

“I wouldn’t have taken it out without it. It's not someone else, it's not in front of Beatrice-sama.”

“Hmm… … .”

At Kang Yoo-sik's story, Beatrice looked over the oath held out in front of her. Full support and friendly relations for Cosa Nostra's advance into Europe. In addition to that, various support items were written, and it took effect after proving all the items Kang Yoo-sik suggested. They were led as suggested by the other side, but there was no need to worry about getting stabbed in the back. After confirming all of the contents, Beatrice pondered for a while before smiling. "No matter how you look at it, Tommaso doesn't seem to be a vessel that will end up in Cosa Nostra."

“I’m thinking of finding out if that’s really the case.”

“Is that so? Then I am the first witness.” As Beatrice gestured to her side, the attendant came up to her holding a ballpoint pen, and she grabbed it and without hesitation signed her signature on the bottom of her body.

It was the oath that was activated at the same time. Kang Yoo-sik looked at Beatrice with a satisfied expression on his face as he perfectly boarded the boat. “Then, shall we start with a class action lawsuit?”
