Regressed Reincarnation: How to Escape a Fantasy World!! - Chapter 64
Morpheus: Would you like to make a deal with me?
Allen: What kind of deal?
Morpheus: Something related to the figurines I showed plus a few extra things that I want.
Geralt: Go on.
Morpheus: All right. So here is the thing, I would like you both to spread the figurines or at least their poster to all over your country with a heavy reward. YOU MUST GUARANTEE THEIR SAFETY. Other than that I need you to handle any situations related to me in your respective Kingdoms cause believe me when I say this, ‘I won’t be the one taking any losses.’ Plus I need to you spread the rumour of our party name as another great party that has been formed by joining various strong mysterious people.
Allen: Is that all? Haha…and here I thought you would ask for support or something like free to enter our country on a whim or a part of our country to rule.
Morpheus: If that’s what I wanted then I would have taken it (that asked for.)THIS DOESN’T MAKES SENSE CHANGE IT Honestly, it’s not that hard.
Geralt:…
Allen:…
Morpheus: In return, I’ll fulfil your one humanly wishes each. It should be equal to what I asked and I want you to tell me that right now.
Geralt: Okay, that is not too heavy to ask for. As for what I want-
Zwain: Pardon my rudeness your majesty but can I ask for the wish instead?
Geralt: ….Zwain…All right, since it is you, it better be worth it. Otherwise, you’ll be stripped from your rank immediately.
Zwain: Thank you, Your Majesty. Morpheus…can you?
Morpheus then smiles as he takes his dagger out and blinks in front of Zwain. Both the Kings have shocked faces as they observe Morpheus’ movements.
Morpheus then does something that makes Zwain breathe a sigh in relief. Morpheus then blinks back to his original positions as Zwain begins to speak.
Zwain: Morpheus, can you cure the Demon Burning Curse of all the people who are suffering from it in Alfheim. There are currently 104 people including a few high ranking members who are suffering from it.
Zwain drops a bomb in the conversation. Not just me or the Kings but also everyone around us is shocked except the old man who is silent and the kids who are making a confused expression. ‘This is ridiculous!! The Demon Burning Curse, which is supposed to be one of the most dangerous curses in this world, has finally found a cure? It may not be known among the common folks but it is one of the most dangerous weapons used by both Devils and Demons alike. Forget about it being real, even if it is a rumour, the Devils and the Demons will do their best to eradicate the root cause of it.
“Morpheus…are you…a God or something??” I couldn’t help but blurt it out. At my voice, everyone turns their head at me before looking back at Morpheus. Well, it will make more sense if he is so. I mean, even the Dryad Queen, who is known to know the cure of all the diseases present in this world does not know how to cure it, so how can a child who hasn’t even lived 10000th of the life she lived to know the cure?
Morpheus then speaks again as a smile forms on his face, “If I were to be a God, I wouldn’t have been asking for your help now, would I?”
I turn silent on his answer. Well, it does makes sense but still…
Morpheus: All right I’ll do that. It’s a deal then. Now for my next question, who is the strongest person in this world right now? Or it would be better to ask who would be at the top 3 right now?
A pin-drop silence envelopes the surroundings before father speaks again.
Geralt: I can’t say who is at the top because it is mostly kept a secret but as for the next 2 it would be the Dragon King followed by the King of Monsters.
Morpheus: What about the Devil and the Demon Kings and also what about you both?
Allen: Haha…it might be a bit shameful to speak but we both are currently at the bottom of the food chain. I and Geralt along with the Dwarf King, Darius and Mermaid Queen have allied together that also include, Pixie Queen, Wood Fairy Queen, other strong Human, Elf race, etc. We have to do this to survive in this cruel world.
As for the Devil King and Demon King, they too have an alliance of their own along with some hidden power to protect themselves, but individually they fall somewhere in the middle.
Morpheus: How many races are there currently known?
Geralt: Not including the hidden ones, there are currently 19 Combat races; like Devils and Demons who specialise in fighting and brawl, and 45 Non- Combat Races; like Pixies and Fairies whose purpose may differ from taking care of nature to taking care of the natural law and order, some of the Ancient Non- Combat races even specialise in Time Magic but that is mostly a myth and 12 Races that fall somewhere in between like us Humans and Elves.
Morpheus: What do you mean by Ancient?
Geralt: Those are the races that were born first in this world. It is said that every race currently present in this world, is born from them or by them. Some runic drawing speaks of the Legends that every race started by the same procedure, it is still not proved but it is said that the Ancient Races have bought a few people from a particular world and made them breed until they could establish themselves and thus forming the current world. There are other legends or maybe rumours but no matter how plausible they might sound since they don’t have a backing of any sort, there is no point in believing them.
At this theory faces of most of the people here turned perplexed, this is too big of a secret that father told us too easily. Since the Royal Family has the right to know this, I was told about the truth pretty early. Observing the surroundings, though everyone is shocked, Zwain and Adelphus are making a complicated face. Is there something they know about it? And it looked like I am not the only one who saw the difference.
Geralt: Zwain…as the King of Elves I order you to tell everything you know.
At this command…Zwain looked at Morpheus as he speaks with a bitter expression…
Zwain: Sir Aether…. I am Alex.
