Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 561

#561. That’s it.

* * *

Age of Heroes of the Past.

The time when the Seven Dragons were called the Demonic Cult.

Although regarded as the enemy of the whole world, there were few opponents who were actually a threat to the Seven Dragons.

Their wealth and power, which dominated all crimes, were strong even then, and above all, it was because there was an absolute princess called a princess.

But they also had the only threat.

That’s the Sword Master.

They were absolutes who could even destroy a single clan.

In the first place, Limon alone was threatening enough.

Therefore, each clan of the Seven Dragons devised measures to prepare for the sword master’s attack.

One of them is the Icarus Cannon.

A legacy of an ancient spirit excavated from the ruins of the distant golden age, it was a weapon used in the defense of the fairy kingdom in the distant past.

Of course, what the Red Dragon Clan obtained was a ruined artifact.

Even after hiring Unryeongsa and spending an astronomical amount of money, it was not completely restored.

However, thanks to the technology gained from restoring it, the Red Dragon Clan was able to gain the power of nuclear fusion that even the Silver Dragon Clan had given up.

And it was only after achieving nuclear fusion that I was able to properly use the Ikaros Cannon.

The power of compressing the vast energy of the nuclear fusion reactor into particles and shooting it out is absolute.

It was one of the strongest weapons even in the Golden Age, when it emitted destructive light that reached 100 million degrees Celsius, even exceeding the temperature of the sun.

So this moment.

Nadia couldn’t help but open her mouth.

?

Fleurs et épées dansantes

Danse de banquet.

blooming flowers.

Fleurs en floraison

.

from void to void.

Petals gently fluttering.

It’s not even real, so it’s fleeting.

Its appearance, which seems to drift along with the wind, looks delicate as if it will disappear at any moment.

However, the moment the flower petals collided with the particle cannon fired from the Ikaros Cannon.

It was the beam side that was broken.

It pierces through mountains just by brushing against it.

It evaporates iron at once and

sets the sea on fire.

Light at 100 million degrees Celsius.

The flower of hell, created by compressing the enormous energy of the nuclear fusion reactor with the power of the ancient spirit, disappeared as if it melted just by touching the flower petals.

“…how?”

Nadia was devastated.

Not bullets, shells, or missiles.

How can a particle that has heat hotter than the sun and is shot at sublight speed disappear?

because it was not understood.

but right after that.

she realized

The center of the fluttering petals.

He swung his sword softly as if he were dancing.

A platinum-haired nun who, with just that, spun countless petals and blocked the particle cannon.

The most beautiful, fantastic, and unreal appearance made Nadia realize even if she didn’t want to.

What they are facing is the Sword Master.

Existence itself is absurd.

An unreality that transcends mutual interests.

That he was the absolute of true absolutes who could even cut down the providence of the world just by swinging his sword.

“Expand the firing range.”

“The target for emergency adjustment of Ikaros Cannon output is the entire rebel army!”

So it was.

The moment Hasneti opened her mouth.

Nadia, who immediately understood the meaning, hurriedly issued an order.

Even as they lost their minds at the unbelievable reality, the clan in the command room immediately adjusted the range of the particle cannon according to the instructions.

It expanded the beam focused on Joan of Arc to swallow the entire rebel army.

Its power dropped sharply, but it didn’t matter.

Even 10,000 degrees, not 100 million degrees, was enough to reduce humans to ashes.

Even if they couldn’t kill Joan of Arc, if they could wipe out the entire Allied army, they could have prevented Cairo from being occupied.

But…

Pallang.

“…!”

As far as the ray expands.

Petals that grow exponentially.

Over tens of hundreds of meters and covering a range of several kilometers.

A storm of flower petals that literally blocks the particle cannons pouring over that vast area without allowing a single particle to pass through.

like that.

Only 10 seconds at most.

But 10 seconds that seemed like eternity passed.

After exhausting all energy, the Ikaros Cannon stops.

Looking at the scene unfolding in front of her eyes, Nadia muttered devastatedly to herself.

“…what kind of monster is that?”

Even the Ikaros Cannon, made of superalloy, couldn’t stand its own heat, burning red and spewing steam.

In the aftermath alone, the temperature throughout Cairo rose by several degrees and the ground melted in a straight line.

Rather than burn out.

without a single scorch mark.

It’s like you don’t even know what just happened.

The bewildered appearance of 5,000 rebels made Nadia stunned.

“Nadia.”

“yes yes?”

“When will the next bombardment of the Ikaros Cannon be possible?”

“Oh that’s it. Including charging and cooling, it takes at least 30 minutes…”

“Then, instruct the 1st Corps to fire. The use of all weapons is permitted.”

“Ah yes!”

When the commander is agitated, the military is shaken, but on the contrary, the coolness of the commander calms the military.

Nadia and the Red Dragon Clan, reassured by Hasneti’s quiet instructions, commanded the 1st Corps and resumed the attack on the rebels.

Kwa-kwang kwa-gwa-gwa-gwang!

Bullets pouring from machine guns.

A shell fired by a mortar or tank.

An incendiary bomb dropped by a bomber.

to various missiles.

Thanks to the advantage of having a supply depot in Cairo right behind them, the Egyptian army unsparingly poured out various artillery fire.

Even among them, Russian-made special bullets and shells were mixed.

Its firepower was overwhelming enough to wipe out even a large army of over 100,000 in an instant.

But the result was the same.

Just like when you blocked a particle cannon.

Because the petals scattered around the sword flower took all of those attacks without wavering.

‘…Is it like this?’

Hasneti watched the scene and remembered Limon’s words.

Swordsman Gandhi.

Sword Joan of Arc.

Two sword masters who can be said to have reached the level of absolute defense.

Among them, in terms of individual strength, Gandhi, who is as good at attacking as he is at defense, is more difficult as he has achieved unified defense and defense.

But, said Limon.

If you have to fight one of them.

I’d rather have a swordsman a hundred times more comfortable.

It wasn’t just because sword fighting was better for defense.

This is because, unlike Gandhi, whose only goal is to protect her body, Joan of Arc’s absolute defense is not limited to herself.

To slash all power and flow.

Even slashing attacks directed at others.

making the army itself invincible.

A war saint who specializes in war more than any other sword master.

And seeing 5,000 soldiers, each of whom became immortal to rival Gandhi, the sword, Hasneti had no choice but to clenched his fists.

* * *

‘It was a bit dangerous after that.’

Swinging his sword, he directed all the fires pouring towards the Allies towards himself.

Dispersing the power contained within.

Joan of Arc felt a throb.

Whether it’s bullets, explosions, or fire.

Ultimately, it’s all about power.

Therefore, it was not very difficult for her, who had mastered the swordsmanship to cut all the power and current, just to receive this amount of fire.

However, when receiving the Ikaros Cannon, he had to feel the burden.

It was not an easy task for her to cut through those countless particles one by one.

Especially since the injuries from Limon remain.

I’m glad it’s her.

I didn’t know if another sword master would have been injured.

The weapons of the ancient spirits that created the Golden Age were powerful enough.

Of course, there were few sword masters who would readily accept such an ignorant bombardment.

Still, if a sword master other than Joan of Arc had come, it would have been difficult to prevent the rebels from being destroyed at once.

‘I can see why junior Billy insisted that he be careful about setting up the headquarters of the Seven Dragons.’

Perhaps it was because he had the experience of attacking the base of the Golden Dragon clan alone.

Admiring the foresight of a smart junior.

Joan of Arc chuckled.

‘But it’s over now.’

You won’t be able to fire consecutive bombardments like before.

It didn’t matter if they shot it.

ten times.

even a hundred times.

Joan of Arc had the confidence to protect her army from any attack.

Even if it was the sword master’s attack.

she blackened.

He was the most delicate, but that’s why he was a sword master who was given the name of a flower that never fades.

Bang bang! Perong!

‘…?’

But while moving toward Cairo, swinging his sword like a dance.

Joan of Arc tilted her head.

All enemy attacks are useless.

The soldiers of the Allied Forces, who gradually realized that fact, were moving forward vigorously.

Now, all that remains is to enter Cairo, subdue the Red Dragon Clan, and decapitate the Red Lizard.

For some reason.

I felt a strange sense of discomfort.

‘It’s strange.’

Taking in the pouring fire.

She looked around.

To ascertain what is the cause of this discomfort.

Fortunately, the Sword Master’s superhuman senses quickly made Joan of Arc realize something.

‘Why doesn’t the distance decrease?’

Tens of minutes after resuming the march.

Even considering the hesitation of the frightened soldiers at first, it was enough time for them to approach Cairo.

All the more because it was an armored unit focused on mobility in the first place.

‘Somehow, it seems to be more distant…?’

Why can’t I reach you even though I’m approaching?

And why didn’t he realize that fact for tens of minutes?

While thinking in doubt.

Suddenly, Joan of Arc blinked at the stone defenses surrounding Cairo.

“…no way?”

the moment you realize it.

Joan of Arc acted immediately.

He ordered the allied forces to destroy the defenses.

Until now, they were not allowed to fire recklessly, saying that civilians should not be harmed.

Puzzled about ordering a counterattack now, the allied commanders prepared to fire.

It is only natural to fight back after being attacked.

Above all, he couldn’t refuse her order to take the Egyptian army’s attack alone.

Perong!

But right after that.

The commander doubted his eyes.

It was obviously because the shells, which were aimed at Cairo’s defense facilities, wandered round and round in the air and landed in the wrong place.

Among the soldiers who were stunned by the sight.

Joan of Arc groaned.

Because now I’m sure.

The sense of incongruity he felt was because of that defense facility.

And what is the identity of the eight stone defense facilities surrounding Cairo?

“Seokbyeong8mun Geumhwajin (???????)…!”

A decisive battle weapon for sword masters created by the Black Dragon clan, who are the most skillful in fighting in the Seven Dragons.

No, that the decisive battle is defending Cairo.

And Joan of Arc, who realized that they had already fallen into that predicament, blinked blankly.

Not even the Black Dragon Palace.

He couldn’t believe why the Black Dragon clan’s decisive advance in Cairo, the base of the Red Dragon clan, was spreading on such a large scale.

Well, I had no idea.

While she herself gathers herself and marches on.

Limon had to work day and night with a sick body to complete this tactic, taking care of Hasneti.

“…This is what happened.”

Joan of Arc sighed.

One of the best fighting techniques of the Seven Dragons.

Even a sword master couldn’t easily destroy it.

Especially since she is superior in defense among all sword masters, and inferior in attack.

‘Is this a waste of time?’

The self that receives any attack.

A strategy that imprisoned even the sword master.

As long as there is no way to harm each other, there is no way to break this confrontation for a while.

Perhaps what they expect is to buy time for Limon to come back after killing Billy and Gandhi.

Even though the possibility was low, Joan of Arc, who was well aware of how absurd a teacher Limon was, could not ignore one.

“But, Red Lizard, it won’t work the way you think.”

Still, she wasn’t nervous.

twirling

I just had a smile.

“In my lifetime, I was the only student of the teacher, but now I have many great juniors.”

And…

“Uh…what is that doing?”

Nadia, who was watching Joan of Arc’s video while commanding the army, was puzzled.

After Joan of Arc, who had been swinging her sword gently until now, suddenly spread her petals wide, temporarily stopping the bombardment.

Because it suddenly changed its behavior.

Twist your back slightly.

While holding the hilt and sword blade.

In a more moderate posture.

If the dance so far was a graceful sword dance performed alone, from now on, it is as if they are going to dance with a sword and hand in hand at a classy ball.

Or…

?As if trying to throw the sword like a ‘spear’.

“…!”

The moment Hasneti realized something after seeing that posture, jumped up from her seat. ?

Quaaaaaang!

Depending on the sting that also penetrates space.

The storm of petals that stretched out in a straight line as if exploding pierced the highest peak of the Seven Dragons.
