Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 707

#707. It’s a bunch.

* * *

Borders of the Russian Khanate.

Whereas there are always many products being transported.

As a dictatorship, it was a place that was notorious for being thoroughly closed to the general public.

but this moment.

The place, which was usually thoroughly managed by the Russian military, was blocked by the military of other countries.

…Actually, the soldiers couldn’t hide their uneasiness.

It was unavoidable.

Most of the neighboring countries of the Russian Khanate are weak countries.

In particular, Western countries were mostly countries whose capitals were devastated by demons in the past.

To them, who had heard about the horrors of the Demon God for generations, the sight of the Russian Khanate immersed in darkness felt like a recurring nightmare.

If the demon really descends.

All the more because they knew that they would be swept away in an instant, rather than being able to stop the Demon God.

However, it is impossible to escape while the reporters from all over the world are broadcasting live.

In the end, they had no choice but to pretend to be proud and boast while hiding their melancholy feelings from junior soldiers to generals.

Even if it is to reassure the people who are already fleeing overseas one after another.

Is that why?

they didn’t realize

A person walking leisurely across the border.

“Hehehe, I want this. What a mess.”

Reporters eager for interviews.

Onlookers eagerly taking pictures.

Soldiers busy with interviews.

And in the meantime, even the masters of the Seven Dragons and the players of the World Federation, who silently monitor the border while hiding.

whatever appears on the surface.

whatever is hidden underneath.

For a moment, let out a windless laugh at the sight that can only be described as funny.

He slowly raised his head.

“I expected it, but it seems that the situation is worse than I thought…”

As if thinking about something.

Or observe.

Take a moment to look at the black mist that surrounds the Russian Khanate and narrow the wrinkles around your eyes.

He ends up getting his tongue out.

“This is so good, it’s hard to even eat rice cakes after watching it.”

Take a moment to look around.

to the chest.

sleeve.

hat.

He smirked when he finally found a key in the sole of his shoe.

“Oh, it was here. Anyway, this is why you will suffer when you get old.”

smiling contentedly.

He took a stride.

And the moment he put the key he was holding into the mist that rolls like the sea.

Sseuseuk.

like a gate opening.

Part of the fog is cleared.

A passage leading deep into it appeared.

Not only the military, but also high-level players, masters of the Seven Dragons, and even priests dispatched from the Holy Alliance.

Everyone would have been stunned if they had seen the scene where the fog, which they could not even enter, had so easily revealed their inner flesh.

But they were silent.

It was as if he had not seen the passage that suddenly appeared in the middle of the fog, as well as the person who had been pacing in front of it from before.

He didn’t find it strange either.

Rather, it seems natural.

I just took a slow step.

“This is why fate is so interesting.”

Leaving only such a big smile.

After the Russian Khanate was sealed off by the black fog, the first smuggler to cross the border just so quietly disappeared into the fog.

Wheein.

Although the sky is already dark.

crashing hard on it.

A snowstorm covering the world in white.

Even so, it’s been a long time since I’ve been looking at the pillars of darkness that rise to the end of the sky that looks clear beyond the blizzard.

Whoops.

After vomiting hot steam.

The white-haired man turned around.

Poudeuk podeuk.

The snow, which was already piled up to his knees, grabbed his ankles with every step and took away his body heat, trying to turn it into food for this snowy field.

But it was impossible.

Darker than night.

Even a blizzard like a storm.

Even the cold that freezes the blood.

It couldn’t make the man wander, slow his feet, or cool himself down.

How long has it been since you crossed the snowfield like that?

The place where he finally stopped was a hill that rose relatively high even in this snowfield where everything was flat.

It was the building above it.

…It was unclear whether it could be called a building.

smooth wall.

arched roof.

up to the towering chimneys.

Everything is made of ice.

The colorless and transparent mansion, which would be more appropriately described as a work of art than a house, was guiding him, shining softly even in the dark.

If a lost person had found it, it would have left doubts about hallucinations.

But the man was not at all surprised to see the mysterious mansion.

I just entered the front door calmly, as if it were my own home.

It was natural.

Because this is his house.

In the sense that there are people who greeted him like a baby rabbit waiting for its parent rabbit in a nest.

“Welcome to Lee.”

“How are you, brother?”

Is it because of the snow mixed into the wall?

Of course, like a house of mirrors, it reflects the scenery inside.

A room of ice that absorbs the light from a shimmering bonfire and turns it into a soft light that illuminates the entire house.

sit in the middle of it.

Sharing the warmth of a campfire.

Looking at the silver-haired girl and the expressionless white-haired girl with identical faces like twins.

Limon quietly opened his mouth.

“How are you both feeling?”

“It has improved a lot. I’m pretty much fine now.”

“Maybe the house my brother made for me is so cozy that I feel pretty good too.”

“…okay.”

On the other hand, he calmly accepted Ainsha’s answer.

It took a while to gaze at Yekathrice’s still pale face and empty left shoulder.

After finally nodding.

Limon opened the shadow.

thud.

“Huh, did you bring a fairly special meal?”

“At least, this is the easiest thing to catch.”

“You’re the only one who says Siberian owls are easy to catch, right?”

He managed to catch Macgeum, who eats foxes and sometimes even wolves.

Limon, calmly accepting Yekathrice’s admiration, put his hand back into the shadow and said,

“Because it’s easier to catch them running away than to find things that are hidden so much that you can’t even poke your nose because they’re afraid of demons.”

cutting board.

cleaver.

pots, etc.

Using all kinds of cooking utensils taken out of the shadows, he prepares owl meat to eat with emergency food.

Limon thought.

It’s a good thing I had an emergency kit with me.

Without these preparations, taking care of the two girls in this snowy field would have been dozens of times more difficult.

Even moving through space becomes impossible.

Especially now that contact with the outside world has been cut off.

“I want to know how Lee is.”

So it was.

The reason why Limon, who was preparing the meat, had no choice but to stop at Ainsha’s blunt question.

I wonder if it’s okay to let the girls who haven’t gotten better yet know the situation.

Thinking for a while.

Limon finally opened his mouth with a heavy sigh.

“It’s just as you expected.”

“…Does that also mean that the Demon God is preparing for a resurrection?”

“okay.”

Hunting is always a bonus.

The result of the reconnaissance that was the purpose.

Limon said with a serious face.

“The energy of the demon is getting stronger. Fortunately, there seems to be still time…”

“In the end, it’s just a matter of time.”

Before being the princess of the Seven Dragons.

As the priest of the Holy League.

Ainsha expressed her opinion with a particularly expressionless face than usual.

“I have set a barrier over the entire Russian Khanate. It’s clear that you want to take your time and eat it as efficiently as possible.”

This situation is in the past.

It’s like when the demon descended.

What was happening only in Moscow then is now happening all over Russia.

The good news is that the revival of the Demon God is being delayed, perhaps because he is consuming his strength to dominate the three sword masters.

The unfortunate thing is…

“If the Demon God is resurrected like this, a catastrophe will happen. It must be stopped.”

When the demon is resurrected.

That power, of course, in Moscow.

It means that even the time when Europe was devastated will be far beyond.

It was impossible to even imagine what would happen if the power of the three sword masters were added to it.

Because I know that fact better than anyone.

Limon quietly opened his mouth.

“I guess I’ll have to do something.”

“That’s not okay.”

“Don’t talk nonsense, brother.”

“…You all agreed that we must prevent the resurrection of the Demon God, right?”

“That is that and this is this. It would be suicidal to go to Gulag in this state.”

Ainsha’s blunt criticism.

I couldn’t comment on Limon.

Although he was better than the two girls, he was also injured.

Limon had to fight to the limit while fighting the three sword masters and escaping with Yekathrice.

What is especially serious is that in the meantime, the enormous amount of dragon psionics was exhausted.

Even now, when dragon psionics are infested with a sense of repulsion against the energy of black magic, if you fight harder than this, you could fall into the magic spell again.

It was unreasonable for anyone to destroy the heart of the Demon God guarded by the three Sword Masters in this state.

“But there is no other way. I can’t watch the demon resurrect like this.”

“What if there was a way?”

“…What do you mean?”

“It is literally. Anyway, the biggest problem right now is that your brother’s dragon psionics are unstable, right?”

“so?”

“There is a way to solve that.”

Yekathrice said lightly.

And he looked at Ainsha meaningfully.

“Isn’t that right, Ainsha?”

Just in case, Limon’s dragon psionics may run out, so learn how to replenish them.

I couldn’t say that I was glad.

The Seven Dragons branch that Maia opened.

But for this moment, Catherine decided to appreciate her foresight and smiled.

no i was trying to laugh

Until Ainsha answered.

“It’s a crowd.”

“…Impossible, why?”

“I haven’t learned the Great Law of Yin-Yang Joy yet.”

“…”

“Don’t look at me like that. Yin-Yang Joy Dafa is the secret season of the green dragon clan. It is abnormal to learn it already.”

“No, that’s…”

Catherine was at a loss for words.

It was not wrong.

The seventy-two kinds of things that would take even a princess with a natural intelligence to acquire over several months.

Even more so, it was crazy to expect that he had already mastered the Eight Seasons, which required as many as eight combinations.

“And even if you’ve learned it, it’s impossible.”

“What does that mean again?”

“Lee’s dragon psionic has gotten too strong. It’s hard just to mix your body.”

Dragon psionics resonate.

That is, it means to come together and become stronger.

But that’s only possible when each other boils.

If one side became too strong, the weak side could not help but feel an enormous burden just by resonating.

That’s why when the seven dragons resonate with the princesses and the psionics, they have to recuperate for several months.

Even more so, Limon’s dragon psionic, which had become stronger through repeated relationships with the brides, was now at a level that even the princess could not handle.

Stronger than anyone, of course.

Even Maia, who has mastered the Great Law of Yin-Yang Joy, has passed the hurdle of life and death trying to soothe the runaway Limon’s dragon psionic.

Even more so, Ainsha, the weakest member of the Seven Dragons, had limits in handling Limon.

Even more so because of the characteristics of dragon psionics that crave each other the more they resonate.

“Even when I spent one night before going to the Holy League, I ended up fainting on the way. Even then, I was half sick and almost had to recuperate for several months.”

“…For me, that was pretty decent, though.”

“That is the criterion. Even the flapping of a dragon’s wings destroys a sparrow’s nest.”

Maybe because of Ainsha’s transparent gaze.

Or maybe it was because he was embarrassed that he had bothered the bride so much.

Limon scratches his cheek.

Yekathrice looked at the two and asked with a very subtle face.

“Wasn’t it relatively fine for a bone disease?”

“It is thanks to the restorative medicine.”

“Remedy?”

“That’s right. If it wasn’t for the medicine Maia gave me, I would have collapsed long ago.”

before leaving Brazil.

A potion given by Maia, saying that they would need it if they were weak enough to handle Limon.

No, remembering the elixir.

Ainsha closed her eyes.

At the time, I thought it was a mockery, so I ignored it, and even when it became necessary, I reluctantly wrote it.

But in this situation, I could understand it.

The fact that Maia genuinely cared about Limon and gave him the means to help him in case of an emergency.

…Unlike his foolish self, who was blinded by jealousy and monopoly.

“But now I don’t even have that medicine.”

“….”

“It is impossible for me to help Lee recover his dragon psionics with internal injuries.”

If only I was a little stronger.

If only I was a little wiser.

If only you were a little more generous.

A future that could have been prevented.

But because it has already passed.

Because I decided not to regret it anymore.

because you made up your mind

He looked at the silver-haired girl with the same face as himself but with one shoulder empty.

Ainsha said expressionlessly.

“So Yekathrice does it instead.”
