Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 1049

#Side Story 18. The wolf howling at the moon (2)

* * *

Who said that?

The more patience you use, the more you use it.

The fruit is even sweeter.

If it were him in the past, he would have laughed and said it was bullshit.

Of course, no matter how hard they trained, I have seen countless gunmen die in the wilderness in vain.

It was all the more so because I had to go through so many days of hardship that I thought that I would have no wish after this hell ended because it was negligence, naive, and unnecessary.

“How does it feel to be a sword master, you idiot?”

That was why.

This moment.

The reason why he had no choice but to remain silent for a moment in response to the question the white-haired man suddenly asked.

“How do you feel?”

“You always complained that there was no need to cut a gunman.”

“….”

If you have any complaints, I will listen.

I ended up falling deeper into silence as I watched the white-haired man speak while resting his chin on one hand.

Scratching.

He scratched the back of his head.

“Well, I think the hard work so far has been worth it.”

“I guess so.”

Of course, it seemed like he knew that would happen.

Looking at Limon who was laughing, he pouted his lips without realizing it.

“Don’t make that face. “Honestly, do you know how many times I almost wanted to put a bullet in Master’s face?”

“Why is the guy who actually did it dozens of times talking like he’s been holding back until now?”

“That means failure is invalid. Besides, if you block it calmly and effortlessly like a teacher, it makes you want to give it another hit for no reason, right?”

“Ho, really?”

To grumpy Billy.

he asked with an interested look on his face.

“Then, to celebrate becoming a sword master, are you going to try again?”

“…are you serious about that?”

“There must be a lot accumulated in me so far. “If a teacher is worthy of his name, he should at least give his student a chance to vent his resentment.”

Whether it’s a sword fight or a surprise attack.

I will accept as much as you want, so do whatever you want.

Limon is still speaking with his chin resting on one hand, without even holding the hilt of his sword.

No matter how much of a sword master he is, his defenseless appearance is so arrogant and vague that it even creates a fighting spirit that he never had before.

Especially since they are the same Sword Master.

But…

“That’s it.”

“hmm? “Are you okay?”

“Isn’t it the right thing to take revenge on the teacher now, just because I learned it by being beaten to death?”

“….”

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

“No, I thought it was a matter of instilling character.”

“Stop saying those horrible things! Is that character instillation?! “It destroys character!”

It was a moment of shame as I recalled the experience of strengthening my work in the name of instilling character.

Narrowing his eyes, he glanced at Limon.

“Above all, take care of your conscience. Do you want to beat up your student like that until the end?”

“Are you intimidated without even looking at what’s going on? “You have to guess to know what’s long and short.”

“That’s what happens when you become an opponent. “If I were to fight you at this distance, it would be obvious that I would lose 99 times out of 100 fights.”

Billy grumbled.

He is a sword master who cuts down streets.

The more he fights from a distance, the stronger he becomes, so it was foolish for him to engage in fair close combat with another sword master.

Especially if the opponent is a monster who has been training his sword for hundreds of years compared to himself who has just gained the sword.

“Well, if we fought on the other side of the world, I would win.”

“I guess so.”

Still, Limon was too proud to just admit defeat, so he added another word to make it more lame, and Limon readily acknowledged Billy’s words.

No matter how much he is a sword master, there is no way he can fight on the other side of the world.

If the duel really started on the other side of the world, Billy would have the advantage seven times out of ten.

The same would be true for most other sword masters.

Because you can cut down the streets.

Being able to attack from further away.

That was why the simple intention of the sword was extremely effective even for a sword master.

If you don’t close the distance to your opponent, you may not win, but you will never lose, especially since Billy is a gunslinger who is willing to retreat.

“Hmm…”

That’s why.

The reason why Limon, who was lost in thought while tapping his fingers, opened his mouth as if he had decided on something.

“Okay then, I guess it wouldn’t hurt to stop by for a moment before going to the Sword Tower.”

“Where do you mean stopping by?”

It’s so unexpected and meaningless.

Still, it’s strangely unpleasant.

Limon spoke meaningfully to Billy, who had a look of horror on his face due to the ominous feeling he felt in the past when he was forcibly instilled with his personality.

“Now that you’ve officially become my disciple, I think you should take more care of your duties.”

* * *

You are talented.

So become my disciple.

For such absurd reasons, Billy was full of dissatisfaction until he was forced to become Limon’s disciple.

It wasn’t just that the days were so harsh as he had to train repeatedly without being able to drink, flirt, or gamble as he pleased.

It was because I thought how great a swordsman was, no matter how absolute he was.

After all, he was a gunman in the wilderness who believed that everyone was equal in front of bullets.

But while training the sword.

The more I learn about swordsmanship.

He understood automatically.

How precious and valuable the teachings he received were.

The fact that his actions of lying, stealing, and deceiving Limon without even knowing that was something that even the words of bravery could not cover his ignorance.

That’s why Billy couldn’t help but think even more.

‘Why are there such a bunch of idiots?’

…and so on.

An expression that is very unsuitable for an omnipotent absolute being.

However, the man who could only be considered extravagant because he was an absolute ruler was Limon.

Even though they caught the corrupt spirit that attacked the pioneer village, instead of collecting the reward, they emptied their own pockets to give consolation money.

After receiving a doll from a young girl, he searches the wilderness for over a month and wipes out a group of thieves.

In the wilderness, where money and compensation were the basis for everything, Limon’s behavior was not only surprising, but also inexplicable.

Including the fact that I caught him when he didn’t like it and taught him until he became a sword master.

That must have been why.

The reason why he ended up chasing after the old man, who at first he thought was just a fool or a crazy person with dementia.

It’s embarrassing to call it respect.

It’s embarrassing to call it admiration.

At best, a gunman in the wilderness.

That kind of thing didn’t suit a fool who was only after money and didn’t hesitate to do illegal things when necessary.

But if you are a sword master.

So now that I can officially call myself his disciple.

I think I have the qualifications to respect and follow my teacher at least a little.

The thoughts he had in his heart were enough to make him feel satisfied for the first time in a long time, as he had been forced to look at the back of a respected hero.

That was why, when Limon set out on the road, he willingly followed behind without causing any trouble for the first time in a long time.

“her…?”

But at this moment.

Billy couldn’t help but make a dumbfounded expression.

Although I had been traveling all over the North American continent until now, I could understand that I had come deep into the wilderness, a place I had never been before.

It was natural that the deeper we went inside, the more crowded the place was with corrupted spirits.

Until then, he had wondered if this righteous old man had decided to wipe out the corrupted spirit.

…Until those corrupt spirits, rather than attacking them, opened a path for themselves as if welcoming guests.

“1001011!”

Sigh.

“Yonseok, I told you to speak human language, not spirit language.”

“It’s been a while since I was the alpha male.”

“So you said you were a teacher, not an alpha male.”

And deep in the wilderness.

In the green forest.

He saw an Indian girl appear above Limon’s head as if falling from the sky and kiss him on the cheek.

Billy, who had lost his mind, only opened his mouth after a while.

“Uh… Master? “Who is she?”

“Who do you look like?”

“….”

Billy’s expression became bizarre.

Because he had a guess too.

No, honestly, it was hard not to know.

The best spirit master of mankind who lives in the middle of this wilderness, which does not allow access to humans, and can control corrupted spirits.

Above all, the movement that even he, the sword master, could not feel until he got close, and the relationship that allowed him to call Limon his ‘teacher’.

Because there was only one person in the world who met all those conditions.

“Let me formally introduce you. “This is the repair that runs to your sister-in-law, Geomryeong.”

“Are you sure?!”

“Then you must be kidding?”

“Huh…

Even if it means eternal life, that’s true.

Whether or not Billy is dumbfounded by the shocking fact that the sword spirit who was famous in North America was such a small kid.

Limon calmly continued his introduction.

“And Suri. “This is Billy the Kid, the black man who will be your priest.”

“…question. “Is this your male brother?”

“I’m wondering if it’s something similar.”

Rather than a death penalty, it is like observing whether a creature or food you see for the first time is edible or not.

He tilted his head slightly and looked at himself for a moment.

Billy, who suddenly came to his senses when the girl started rubbing her cheek against Limon again as if she liked it, cleared her throat and opened her mouth.

“Kyahaha, nice to see you.”

“The question is, why are you happy?”

“If you’re asking why I’m glad to meet you, it’s because I’ve been hearing your sister’s name for a long time.”

“denial. “I’m not dying.”

“Surya, the spiritual name and the spiritual face are different things.”

“….”

One screw was missing.

When Billy looks even more shocked as he sees his sister-in-law lightly shattering the image he had of being a sword master.

Limon said abruptly.

“I think we’ve sufficiently introduced ourselves to each other… Now, let’s meet together.”

“…What should I do?”

“I mean, let’s spar.”

Knife wielders get to know each other best when they talk with their swords, so wouldn’t this be much better than a trivial greeting?

Billy made an absurd expression as he looked at Limon speaking calmly.

“Iboshipsho, Master. “I told you before… have you turned around?”

“If distance is an issue, I’ll give you the player. “You can do whatever you want, no matter when and where you start your attack.”

“…Are you serious?”

“okay.”

“Master, as you know, I am still inexperienced in handling the sword. “If you’re not careful, your sister-in-law might get hurt.”

“Does not matter. On the contrary, it would be admirable if you could even inflict one wound on Suri.”

“Hmmmm.”

Whatever you do.

The results won’t change.

After narrowing my eyes at Limon, who spoke clearly, and Suri, who started dozing off while clinging to Limon’s back as if she was okay with it.

Billy grinned.

“Okay. “Then let’s give it a try.”

So about a day.

After driving a horse all day and running through the wilderness, I widened the distance.

Billy spat on his palm and thought as he pulled out his knife.

Even though Sword Spirit is an Indian hero who has been famous for decades, he is also a sword master.

Because of the difference in training, it may be difficult to win, but if there is this distance, it will not be easy to lose.

I will definitely surprise the old master who was persistent and acted as if the outcome was predetermined even before the fight.

Be so determined.

Over a distance of tens of kilometers.

The moment Billy threw the knife.

?Drunken Moon, the sword of dreams.

Handicraft, alcohol, moon, dream, medicine, don’t

wake me

while I’m sleeping. ??, ??????

Seogeuk.

“…???”

The knife shattered…

…and Billy’s head was blown off.
