Genius Regressor Makes Mythic Items

An unimaginably vast plain, resembling an ocean as large as the Pacific.

There,

“Roarrr!!”

“Crush them all!”

“Erin shall fall today!”

Deafening roars and explosions constantly reverberated.

War.

A war filled with magic, supernatural abilities, and gigantic monsters, resembling something from his previous life on Earth. Shimun’s eyes widened at the sudden and overwhelming scene before him.

The reason was simple.

“Another force of theirs is joining!”

“Retreat is not an option!”

“Hold your ground!”

With the cries, new forces appeared on the expansive plains.

They were none other than, ‘Giants?’

Giants.

Already stunned by the sudden war, Even the cacophony of battle noise seemed overshadowed by, the enormous vibrations caused by thousands of giants charging forward.

Rumble!

Only then did Shimun realize, ‘Ah.’

He understood.

‘The voices… It’s similar to when I absorbed Tiamat’s blood before.’

He was experiencing a situation similar to when he reversed Tiamat’s blood with Chronos’s sand. The difference this time, ‘The details seem more vivid than back then…’

Back then, when he saw the five Dragon Lords, despite being much weaker than now, their sheer presence alone had been overwhelming.

Back then, he wasn’t okay.

In contrast, ‘The vibrations and everything feel more realistic this time.’

It felt like shifting from watching a 2D movie to a 3D one. A subtle but definite difference.

And this difference probably, ‘Is due to this Broken Silver Arm.’

The excruciating pain, as if his very soul was being scorched. The arm that made him scream for the first time since his regression.

This must be the cause.

That meant, ‘Like Tiamat’s blood, these must be remnants of memories…’

Just like Tiamat’s memories, these were likely the memories of the arm’s owner before it was severed.

Then,

Boooom!

Perhaps because the sensations were more vivid than with Tiamat’s blood, the overwhelming presence crushed Shimun’s entire being as if gravity had increased several times.

Yet, since these were memories, not directly affected, Shimun focused on the voice as powerful as a Constellation’s.

『Foolish beings.』

Turning toward the source of the voice, neither human nor beast.

Then,

‘Wow…’

Shimun couldn’t help but gasp in awe.

It was no wonder.

‘How gigantic is it exactly?’

Even Vrtra, combining the aspects of a naga and a lamia, was immense enough to reach the stratosphere and could easily crush ordinary giants.

『Given a chance, you chose to fight pointlessly…』

Yet the colossal being before him couldn’t be fully seen in one glance. Shimun had to tilt his head almost at a right angle just to capture its upper body.

Only then did he realize, ‘My goodness…’

Shimun understood.

‘This… isn’t its full form…’

This being, even larger than Vrtra in her true form, hadn’t revealed its entire body.

‘It’s just the upper body!’

It was only showing its upper body and head. The chest rose like a mountain, without its voice, one could easily mistake it for part of the landscape.

Above,

『This is your last chance.』

Eyes glowing blue like stars or satellites turned towards the ground.

『Nuada. Choose.』

The immense pressure from its gaze was secondary.

‘Nuada? Hold on.’

Regardless of its star or satellite-like size,

‘Is it talking to me?’

Shimun realized those gigantic blue eyes were directed precisely at him.

To confirm, “Choose? What choice do you mean?”

Shimun’s lips moved on their own, voicing words. Shimun chuckled.

‘I see. It’s similar to the experience with Tiamat… even in these details.’

When he experienced Tiamat’s memories, he had seen from the perspective of the dragon god Tiamat. It was the same this time.

‘Nuada. So, the owner of the Silver Arm.’

Then,

『Don’t bother with repeated questioning.』

Was it irritated?

The giant’s blue eyes narrowed.

『Submit and swear loyalty. Then the divinity and positions of you and Erin will be preserved.』

It cast a gaze so arrogant it couldn’t even be called arrogance.

But, “You’re the one being bothersome, Satan.”

Showing a faint smile, Shimun—no, Nuada, the true owner of the Broken Silver Arm, spoke.

“Listen carefully.”

With cold eyes, he declared,

“We, Erin, would choose annihilation over ever bowing to your filthy giants…”

Before he could finish, “Wait!!”

A thunderous yell pierced the space between the two entities.

“What you say contradicts what you told me!”

It wasn’t just the sheer immensity of the giant with the piercing blue eyes, called Satan, that interrupted.

“You promised the divinity of Erin to us, the Fomorians!”

Boom!

Just like Vrtra’s true form, a colossal one-eyed giant lumbered forward, making the ground quake.

“Even in the past, your stupidity remains unchanged, Balor.”

Nuada clicked his tongue.

“That being betrayed Yahweh and even turned against Lucifer, who reached out a hand to him.”

He let out a scoffing laugh and sneer.

“Do you think such an entity will keep a promise?”

“Shut up! Nuada! You’re the fool! Satan even made an ‘oath’ to me!”

Balor, emphasizing the word ‘oath’, glared with his large single eye.

“Ha! What a fool.”

But even at that harsh outburst from Balor, Nuada responded with an even deeper sneer.

“What does an oath mean to him? If it weren’t for the Seven Deadly Sins, he would have already lost his divinity due to countless lies. You should know that if you’re a king too, shouldn’t you?”

At those words, Balor glanced up at the massive Satan. He knew well how important a promise and an oath were to a Constellation, just like the King of Fomorians, Balor, did.

Soon.

“…Satan’s divinity is as clear as yours and mine, Nuada. At least, in my eyes, it is.”

His somewhat hardened eyes turned back to Nuada.

“Tsk, this is why the Fomorians can’t dominate Erin.”

“Shut up!”

At Nuada’s sigh, Balor roared in anger.

“You may have that damn arm, but!”

Pointing his thick finger at his single eye.

“I have an eye better than anyone else in Erin! My judgment is far superior to yours, Nuada!”

Veins popped in his neck as he spat out words.

“Ha.”

Nuada let out a deep sigh briefly.

『Don’t worry. Balor. I had already intended to give you another position in Erin.』

Satan’s heavy voice descended over the two divine kings’ heads.

Like a child deceived by candy.

“Another position?”

Balor, lifting his head sharply, hesitated faintly.

『Indeed.』

Kugugug.

At Satan’s vast nodding, which could not be unnoticed.

“Yes, of course! I knew it!”

With a bright smile as if he had received candy.

“Did you see that, Nuada? Now, Erin will be ruled by me, Balor! I am the true divine king of Erin!”

He turned immediately to Nuada, roaring with the triumph of a victor.

But Nuada did not respond in any way.

He just looked at Balor with pitiful eyes.

『Then…….』

Above his head.

『Since you’ve missed your last chance. You must be dealt with.』

Satan’s heavy voice descended once more. At this signal.

『Sprout.』

Sprout.

out…….

Echoing voices were heard. Next to Satan.

Kugugugugugu!

Something massive sprouted in an instant. He thought there could be nothing as large as Satan. Nuada slowly raised his head.

『It took longer than expected.』

Took longer.

Longer…….

He confirmed another colossal being, perhaps even slightly larger than Satan. And then.

“Haha…….”

A hollow laugh escaped involuntarily. No wonder.

“Flame Emperor Shennong…… you’re involved too?”

An entity he never expected had appeared. However, even at Nuada’s question.

『…』

The colossal being called Flame Emperor Shennong said nothing. He merely looked down at Nuada with his glowing red eyes.

Perhaps the silence triggered something within Nuada.

“To think you’re acting as a giant. The Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors are also done for! Ah! Well…….”

Nuada spoke in a mocking voice.

“After suffering so greatly at the hands of the Five Emperors, you even lost the place to return to. It’s not surprising, is it?”

He curled up his lips in a sneer. Despite his exterior that seemed unresponsive to provocation, did it work after all?

『How insolent!』

Insolent!

lent!

He immediately erupted in fierce anger. With eyes that burned even more fiercely, he glared at Nuada.

『Yes, in the end, you’re just like those divine kings.』

Divine kings.

Kings.

With those words,

Kugugugugu.

He raised his massive arms as large as a mountain.

As a result, night fell over the vast plain. But this was just a moment. As the shadow of Shennong’s arms overtook other shadows in an instant,

Fwoooosh!

“Guh!”

Even the divine king Nuada found it difficult to endure the intense heat that scorched the plain.

Fwoooosh!

Suddenly, sun-like spheres of flame formed in his enormous hands.

Then,

『All divine kings…… shall disappear.』

Disappear.

pear.

With his characteristic echoing voice, shennong struck down the suns he held in his hands.

Kugugugugu!!

As Shennong said, the suns that scorched the vast plain by their mere presence burned everything here to the point of leaving no trace.

Yes, That’s how it should have been.

『Ho, is that the Silver Arm?』

“C-Crazy…….”

The reactions of Satan and Balor could be heard. Their expressions were different, But the emotions they held looking at the current situation were the same.

And then,

Crackling!

Silver sparks.

“Guh!”

Nuada, who had wrapped them around his entire body, let out a brief scream.

“Seize…… it! Airgetlam!”

Crackling!!

He thrust his right arm, emitting silver sparks so intensely it was barely visible.

At the end of that arm, His right hand, which was blocking Shennong’s sun-like spheres, clenched with all its might.

Then, surprisingly.

Fsshhh…….

The sun-like flames that had scorched the vast plain disappeared without a trace. One would expect anger from a blocked attack.

『As expected, authority doesn’t work?』

work.

ork…….

But Shennong looked on with interest instead.

That was all.

『Then, physical force will suffice.』

suffice.

fice…….

With those words,

Wham!

With a speed unimaginable for such a massive body, he grabbed Nuada’s right arm.

Then,

“When did he!”

Without giving Nuada any time to react,

Crack!

“Argh!!”

He tore off Nuada’s arm.

*

“Argh!”

A scream escaped Kim Shimun’s mouth. The familiar ceiling and surroundings came into view.

-Oh, oppa!

“Appa! Appa!”

Kyuu!!

Voices could be heard, but.

“Ugh!”

Kim Shimun could only groan softly, clutching his right arm.

Soon after.

-Let’s get you to bed first! Shiyeon?

“Okay!”

Kyuu.

As if being carried. His vision swayed. Eventually. Only when a soft sensation enveloped his entire body.

“Haa…….”

Kim Shimun could regain his composure. In his vision.

-Oppa. I’m examining you for now…….

He saw the Philosopher’s Stone in the flask checking his body condition here and there. The Philosopher’s Stone, based on Paracelsus’s flask, gradually becoming a homunculus.

Given that its main self was located at the center of Kim Shimun’s chest.

-Physically, there’s no problem at all?

It quickly and accurately diagnosed Kim Shimun’s body condition.

-It seems to be a mental issue…… are you really struggling? Should I get some sedatives?

To the concerned Philosopher’s Stone.

“No, I’m alright now.”

Calming his ragged breathing, Shimun smiled weakly.

“Just like you said…… it was quite a shock. I’ll be fine after a bit of rest.”

“Appa…….”

Kyuu…….

He patted the heads of Shiyeon and Kyung, who seemed on the verge of tears.

“Appa’s fine.”

The Philosopher’s Stone, watching Kim Shimun for a moment, said,

-Okay. Shiyeon, Kyung, let’s give oppa some rest and step outside.

“Okay…….”

Kyuu……

Shiyeon and Kyung left the bedroom with the Philosopher’s Stone.

“Hoo.”

Kim Shimun took a deep breath and placed his hand on his forehead.

Then,

Trembling.

“…The shock is pretty intense.”

Kim Shimun let out a hollow laugh as his right hand continued to quake like a malfunctioning cellphone on his forehead.

‘Well, it’s no wonder.’

The sensation of having a limb ripped off while still alive. And not by any ordinary strength, either.

‘It was the grip of a colossal being.’

He had faced the grip of Flame Emperor Shennong, as massive as a mountain. His sheer physical strength exceeded anything a human could possibly imagine.

‘It felt like the whole world was pulling on my right arm…….’

Shaking his head, Shimun looked at his right arm, gradually calming down. As the tremors subsided, he smiled faintly.

“It wasn’t all for nothing, after all.”

Over his steadily calming right arm, some welcome notifications appeared, making him forget the overwhelming sensation.

『‘Damaged Silver Arm’ has been successfully bound.』

『‘Damaged Silver Arm’ has been changed to ‘Nuada’s Silver Arm’.』

『‘Nuada’s Silver Arm’ has been added to your traits.』

‘Traits…… wait a minute.’

Seeing this, Shimun’s eyes sparkled. The reason was simple.

‘There’s an information window for this, right?’

Just like the Dragonoid trait, Nuada’s Silver Arm also had an information window.

Kim Shimun immediately said,

“Status window.”

He opened the status window.
