I Regressed To My Ruined Family Chapter 11

#When we returned, our family was ruined (11)

Three days had passed since we entered the mountain range. In the anti, we went through quite a few battles.

It was still the sa now.

Currently, Hans and Myers were struggling against the saber-toothed tiger, one of the monsters that appeared in the mountain range.

“Confucius! “It’s on the left!”

“okay!”

Myers calmly swung his sword. A saber-toothed tiger scread.

Saber-toothed tiger.

It is a beast that uses its long yet sharp teeth along with its powerful instantaneous leaping ability to bite into the vital parts of its prey.

Of the first five that attacked, three were quickly dispatched.

There are only two saber-toothed tigers left.

The two beasts ignored Elena and were only rushing towards Hans. This is because the man holding the great sword was terribly strong.

The animal’s instinct is designed to attack the weak first.

The two birds rushed towards Hans at the sa ti. One was blocked, but the other was not.

Hans’ eyes widened when he saw the saber-toothed tiger leaping towards him.

Because this was a speed that could not be avoided. Soon the beast’s long teeth grazed his neck.

“Hi!”

The guy scread like he was going crazy. Elena, who was snuggling behind him, tapped Ethan’s arm.

“Ethan, that looks a bit dangerous… will you be okay?”

“It’s not dangerous.”

“really?”

“uh. “Myers is protecting well at that level.”

“It looks like blood splattered from the Chamberlain’s neck just now…”

“I bought it because Myers pulled by the waist. “If it weren’t for that, my teeth would have been stuck in my neck already.”

And that too deeply.

This is Ethan, who was willing to step forward if necessary. However, Myers was doing better than expected.

Hans was a very good teaching material for Myers.

Myers’ defensive skills were growing rapidly day by day while protecting him.

‘It will definitely be usable in about two months.’

After that, it seed like it would be okay to leave one axis of defense to the youngest.

The battle that lasted ten minutes ended.

Hans felt his neck and collapsed. After the battle with the spider three days ago, all the spices were confiscated.

The reason was not difficult to guess.

‘I guess they’re trying to raise the youngest Confucius.’

The role he played was Myers’ training material.

Thanks to this, whenever a monster attacked, Hans was going back and forth between this world and the underworld.

‘Keuyeah.’

My whole body ached all over.

Still, I couldn’t stay still.

His role on this journey was as porter and cook.

Although, unexpectedly, the role of Myers’ teaching materials was added. After lighting the bonfire, Hans took out a small pot from his suitcase. He looked at Ethan.

“Grand Duke. “I’d like to make so stew. Would that be okay?”

“uh.”

“yes.”

The guy started moving around busily. As it had already been three days since they entered the mountain range, they seed to have beco quite accustod to making food for camping.

anwhile, Ethan separated the saber-toothed tiger’s teeth and skin.

In order to carry out the fire festival, offerings had to be made to an altar inside the mountain range.

The saber-toothed tiger’s skin and teeth were a decent offering in their own right.

There were many other offerings besides this. This was because I encountered quite a few monsters during my last exploration.

‘I gathered enough ingredients.’

Now all that was left was to arrive at the fire altar.

Whoop!

“Okay. Good. Let’s eat it quickly. “Stew tastes best when it’s hot.”

The four people emptied the food in their bowls. The taste of the stew was definitely good, as Hans declared.

“I’m so glad you brought the Chamberlain. “Right, bro?”

“uh. “It’s delicious.”

It was just as Myers said.

If I hadn’t brought him, I would have been chewing on beef jerky all week. Because I couldn’t make my sister suffer.

I have experienced that kind of life countless tis in my past life, fighting dragon heads.

‘I was so sick of it.’

It was a life in which I could not enjoy any of the food, clothing, and shelter.

Since we were back in the past and this ti the Yongin people had also signed a non-aggression pact or sothing, there was no need to repeat that torture. This was precisely the reason why Hans was brought in.

In most cases, it was good to eat and live like a human being.

The al ended quickly.

After finishing cleaning up, Hans took sothing out of his backpack.

It was an insect repellent sold at a general store. The guy sprayed repellent around him.

“Then sleep well.”

The group fell asleep instantly.

I rembered how Hans, who had been on watch duty for the first ti, had been listening to so far.

‘It’s the blessing of fire.’

He said it was definitely one of the traditions passed down in the family before departure.

Except for himself, the party that ca to the mountain range were all direct descendants of the duke family. Isn’t the Fire Festival a secret event only for the imdiate family that the 10 collateral families don’t know about?

‘Why are you taking to a place like that?’

I couldn’t help but wonder.

The only thing he can do in the mountains is to act as a cook and porter.

Are you revealing secrets only to your imdiate superiors just to be able to take on such a role?

To Hans, it made no sense.

‘Are you trying to make use of ?’

A strong relationship of trust had not yet been built.

Still, he showed his devotion to Ethan in his own way.

Because over the past ti, I have provided as much convenience as possible for the Archduke and his family.

These actions may have impressed the Archduke.

‘Besides…’

Currently, there is no one other than his family that the Archduke can trust and entrust with his work. To do sothing big, you need important loyalists.

Maybe he’s trying to take on one of those roles himself.

The Grand Duke and the 10 collateral families.

Between the two, Hans’s heart was gradually leaning towards the forr.

‘Because one skill is truly monstrous.’

It’s only been about two weeks since I woke up. Nevertheless, his prestige was increasing day by day.

It was inevitable that my mind would start to lean towards one side.

He looked at the bonfire and gathered his thoughts.

* * *

Deep in the Pushkes Mountains.

There was a place there called the Temple of Fire.

It was a temple known to have existed for a very long ti.

It is said that one of the ancestors discovered the semi-abandoned place, and since then they have held ancestral rites here and received blessings from the spirits of fire.

‘It must be sowhere around here.’

Even if the past had changed, the buildings located deep in the mountains would not have disappeared.

After searching for several hours, we were able to find a building that appeared to be a temple.

It was an old building overgrown with vines, as if it had been abandoned for quite so ti.

“Is that the fire temple you ntioned?”

“It will be right.”

Ethan opened the temple door.

The air was full of acrid air, as if it had not been ventilated for a long ti.

‘It was completely abandoned.’

It wasn’t like this in my past life.

mbers of the family visited at least once a year and kept the temple neatly organized.

A war that happened faster than before.

Perhaps that’s why the Fire Temple was also forgotten. It was the mont when we were about to enter the temple.

“Hey, Archduke.”

“why?”

“Can I co in here? It looks like an important place…”

“Co in.”

Anyway, I brought it here just to show you.

The mont you receive the blessing of fire, you will be able to clearly understand what kind of line you should hold between your collateral and direct world.

“All right.”

Hans carefully entered the temple.

Inside the temple, everything was the sa except that it was full of dust.

Ethan approached the altar.

“Hans.”

“yes.”

“Take out all the ingredients.”

“All right.”

By-products collected from hunting monsters before arriving here were placed one by one.

I looked at Elena and Myers.

“The fire festival will begin now. The thod is simple. “All you have to do is offer an offering and dance around the altar when the embers start flying.”

“Dancing?”

Elena tilted her head.

“You just have to perform the dance moves that you think are big and flashy.”

“So you’re saying spirits appear?”

“that’s right. “When the spirits gather like that, they will give you a blessing.”

“That easy?”

“maybe.”

After waking up here.

Ethan had been looking through several history books to see how much the past had changed.

‘Fifteen years.’

It was a completely different ti from the past he rembered.

All major events that occurred before that proceeded in the sa way.

It has been well over a hundred years since the Fire Spirit and the Duke of Ardan began to interact.

Therefore, the ‘covenant’ made between the ancestors and the spirit of fire will continue.

What if it didn’t connect?

‘It’s unfortunate, but it’s all over unless you get the blessing.’

Not only did they offer an offering, but they also planned to perform a ritual that the spirits would like through dance moves, so they would not show a hostile attitude.

“Let’s get ready.”

“huh.”

Ethan put all the ingredients on the altar.

They placed candles on candlesticks nearby and lit them.

Lights began to flicker inside the shimring temple.

Ethan mumbled in ancient language.

It was a phrase I learned from my father in a previous life.

Spirit of fire.

The descendants of Ardan have arrived.

Offer a tribute.

I offer fire.

I offer my dance moves.

Please reveal yourself.

The mont the six sentences of ancient language used in the ceremony ended.

The candle burned brightly.

Small embers began to flutter among dozens of candles.

‘You’re out.’

The fire passage was connected.

The mont Ethan nodded, the group started dancing.

The small embers swayed back and forth following the dance and began to stick to the group one by one.

This ans that the more sparks ignite, the higher the affinity for the fire attribute.

Highest, middle, lowest.

The family divided affinity into these five levels.

‘Myers is interdiate level.’

If he had been training his Black Fla Breath since he was young, he would have had advanced level talent.

It was unfortunate, but I couldn’t help it because now was not the right ti to receive the blessing.

Elena’s talent was at a low level.

Soon, the embers that had gathered near them began to take shape.

[They are descendants of the Ardan family.]

[They are a cute girl.]

Even the middle-level spirit of fire, Ifrit, and the low-level spirit of Salamander.

Nurous embers were created near the two spirits and the surrounding area beca noisy.

But the commotion was short-lived.

Because all the spirits’ eyes began to look towards one place, as if they had made a promise.

[Oh my god.]

[What the hell is that….]

Ethan standing in front of the altar.

Even though he wasn’t dancing, there were so many sparks that it completely covered his body.

Ethan in his previous life had reached a stage where his very existence naturally attracted fire. This ans that it is far beyond the highest level.

One who controls fire.

It was one of his nicknas.

In my past life, I was blessed by Ignis, the highest spirit, at a young age, but…

‘Now even Ignis is not enough.’

Right now, I just couldn’t be satisfied with that much. Because the experience of the transcendent has already lted into the body.

It was the sa even if I returned to the past.

Just by vibrating the essence of fire on my wrist, countless sparks would ignite.

“Who will give a blessing?”

Ethan spoke towards the passage of fire that had already grown significantly.

At that mont, the passage began to tremble.

[His Majesty is coming in person!]

[Worship! Blood relatives of the Ardan family!]

The passage grew to about half of the temple.

Nurous fire spirits gathered near the passage. The mont they all ca together as one.

[Did you call ?]

A voice ca out through the burning heat.

It was a voice filled with so much power that one could shake one’s body just by hearing it.

It was definitely a spirit of a higher level than Ignis, the highest spirit.

He must be a spirit lord that I only saw in literature.

A big fish was caught.

“okay. “I want to receive the blessing directly from you.”

Ethan’s eyes lit up.
