Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 801

#801. I’m sorry

* * *

As much as I’ve lived for a long time.

Limon has had a lot of experience.

And experiences that aren’t traumatic become strength.

Thanks to that experience, he was able to immediately judge what he had to say and do without being shaken in any situation.

but this moment.

he was silent

The figure of the disciple lying dead in the middle of the artificial flower garden was covering Limon’s mouth.

Is that why?

Limon silently reached out his hand.

softly.

Smooth silver hair that gently penetrated through her fingers like the wind and then flowed down like a silk thread.

Limon let out a sigh as he felt the faint vitality flowing through the flow of the silver waterfall.

‘Is it still the same?’

breath too.

heart rate.

Even body temperature.

It is so faint that it is hard to feel even with the superhuman senses of a sword master, so it is easy to mistake it for a corpse.

However, Limon, who had a complicated expression on his face as he looked at the apprentice who was obviously still breathing, shook his head slightly.

‘I should consider it fortunate that the Great Law of Return is still maintained.’

Postmortem Anastasia.

Wanderer resurrected it.

He tore his own eardrum and escaped.

After continuing to search for the teacher, he saved him from being cornered by Geomrang and the Swordsman.

Looking at the last disciple whose heart was pierced by an ambush by the black, he made a bitter expression.

Now she is in a state of suspended animation rather than dying.

In fact, it was at the level of forcibly holding on to a life that should have died long ago.

Maia’s desperate medicine.

Psionics of biological manipulation reached their peak.

The vitality contained in the spell of black magic that goes against the order of things.

It was actually close to the miracle of reviving the lion, which was possible because all of that was interlocked.

But even miracles have limits.

The vitality that had already run out was consumed slowly and ceaselessly just by breathing.

It was for this reason that Maia moved Anastasia to this artificial flower garden.

In order to stop metabolism and preserve life as much as possible by borrowing the power of the dragon psionic contained in Kihwayocho and Limon’s fragments.

It was a relief that Anastasia’s life was still maintained thanks to that.

But…

‘How long will it last?’

stroking Anastasia’s cheek.

Limon felt bitter.

He knew that Sir was working hard to break Wanderer’s spell and heal her.

And Sir, he will surely find a way.

She is the legendary great witch, and even though magic is not omnipotent, it is a power close to omnipotence.

two problems.

One is that in order to replenish her lack of vitality, she must eventually kill all the other sword masters or free her from the spell.

Of course, the majority of the originally resurrected 9 Sword Masters have already died or suffered fatal injuries.

But they are sword masters.

Will I be able to kill everyone else?

It was something that even Limon could not guarantee.

It was even more so to break the spell by subduing it.

Still, it wouldn’t be impossible if we took the time to defeat them one by one, as we have done until now, but…

the problem was that time.

‘Did they say one year at the most?’

Limon closed his eyes, remembering the limits that Maia had warned him about as the first in the world.

one year.

It is by no means a short time.

However, the time was too short to destroy the World Federation and defeat the few Sword Masters.

Perhaps, especially since Anastasia’s remaining vitality could be exhausted in a few months.

Of course, it wasn’t that there was no way.

If the Seven Dragons attack the World Federation with all their might right away, they could end it within a month.

And if he asks.

The seven princesses will gladly comply.

Because they were his brides.

But Limon didn’t.

Rather, he asked Maia not to tell the other princesses about this.

As the groom of the seven princesses before becoming a swordsman, he couldn’t push his bride to death for the sake of his disciple.

‘There is no absolutely right thing in the world.’

So, remember what you said.

Limon fell into bitterness.

It wasn’t just for Rose.

to save the life of a disciple.

killing the other disciples.

I have to weigh with the brides.

It was also self-help for my own situation, which was bound to go wrong no matter which side I chose.

Of course, he is the guardian of mankind.

Just as we have done the right thing regardless of means to protect humanity, we will eventually make the right choice this time too.

But…

“Asha, do you know this?”

Like that, stroking the disciple’s head.

After thinking about it for a long time.

Limon suddenly opened his mouth.

“I have a bride.”

If Anastasia had been awake, how would she have reacted to her words?

Because you know the answer.

Limon continued with a wry smile.

“That also made all the princesses of the Seven Dragons as brides.”

“I’m very surprised. To be honest, I never imagined myself to be such an asshole.”

“…but don’t agree so readily.”

Recalling the character of the last disciple who, in a sense, was the most embarrassing among all the unique disciples.

After inadvertently adding a word.

Limon continued.

“The White Dragon Princess is really like the White Dragon clan.”

“It’s stupidly pure and honest, but that’s what that child’s weapon is.”

“A cute bride with a comfortable smile on her face.”

calm and

just quietly.

A voice that rings the garden.

“As you know, the Silver Dragon Princess is crazy.”

“He’s a guy who could be a huge disaster if he goes astray, but he’s a fool who puts the White Dragon Princess above all else in the world.”

“The most headache-inducing, but the funniest and most delightful bride.”

Like a lullaby.

Sit on the edge of the bed.

While stroking her clean silver hair.

“The Blue Dragon Princess is a no-brainer.”

“Even after giving up your beliefs, you always worry about whether you are right, and you believe in me more than anyone else.”

“So you are a noble bride who will keep me from going astray.”

in the middle.

stop talking for a moment

Briefly mix up anecdotes from the past.

“The Red Dragon Princess is passionate.”

“It’s too passionate, so there’s a bit of a radical and single-minded side.”

“So there were times when I was quite embarrassed, but she’s a charming bride who makes me hot with her unstoppable passion.”

or sigh.

or scratching your cheeks.

sometimes with a bitter smile

“The green dragon princess is staying in the outside world.”

“Although he always lives pessimistically with vicious language and cynicism, in reality he has a softer heart than anyone else and is meticulous.”

“She is a pitiful bride who wants to hug her and soothe her wounds when she sees them together.”

over several hours.

without stopping even for a second.

just keep telling the story

“Princess Gold Dragon is surprisingly not perfect.”

“That’s why the heightened effort built up is rather dazzling, and the occasional laxity is cute.”

“I want to see her like that, so I want to be mean on purpose and bring out the sloppiness, but she’s the bride I can rely on the most.”

over the past year.

everything you’ve been through.

feelings for the seven princesses.

“The Black Dragon Princess… well.”

“Honestly, I don’t know what to say. Even though I’ve known you the longest, it’s the hardest to know what’s inside.”

“But she is a dependable bride who can be trusted to do her best for me in any situation.”

how long has it been

words become sparse

After eventually completely disconnected.

In the artificial flower garden where silence came, Limon closed his eyes again.

Or the confessional.

Limon did not like the act of seeking forgiveness by confessing sins to the gods of some religions.

no matter what crime

The one who deserves an apology.

Even having the right to forgive.

It’s natural to be a victim.

Those who go to confession want to be forgiven by God and avoid punishment and only avoid guilt.

“I’m sorry, Asha.”

in that sense.

This was cowardice.

In a sense, apologizing to an unconscious partner was more shameless than confessing.

But although there was bitterness on Limon’s face, there was no shame.

He had no intention of avoiding his sins, and this was a story that would have to be told again someday.

“Because I couldn’t compromise for you.”

if he compromised

Just as he accepted the princesses of the Seven Dragons.

Forgive me for that sin and give me another chance.

While stroking the head of the disciple who might not have been like this, Limon quietly continued.

“And for not being more considerate of you.”

If you stopped her from trying to regain the throne in order to prove her qualifications as a bride.

Or stop it before it slips off.

If they prove their love,

they will run amok and cause catastrophe in the Russian Khanate.

Even then, the disaster of having to personally cut Anastasia, who could not give up the proof of her qualifications, might have been avoided.

I don’t regret it.

He is the protector of mankind.

Because it was to protect humanity.

“So wake up soon.”

However, it is not that there is no lack of self and pity for the lost disciple.

Limon bowed his head.

“At that time, let’s finish the story.”

Live as if passing by.

kiss the forehead

After brushing your hair one last time.

Limon got up.

There are still many things I want to tell you. Enough to stay up all night for a few days.

But I couldn’t.

He had work to do, a place to return to, and above all, brides waiting for him.

That’s how I cut myself in the past.

wanting to save now.

the last disciple.

Leaving behind the woman who could have been his first bride, he quietly passed the space.

* * *

Paging.

“Have you been well, Swordsman?”

The moment you go beyond space and return to Elemental Resort.

Looking at the smiling face that appeared in front of him, Limon asked without knowing himself.

“…were you waiting for me?”

“yes.”

“Since when?”

“It’s not very long. It’s only a little over an hour.”

“If the meeting was over so quickly, why didn’t you just call me?”

As if it was nothing really.

The black-haired girl spoke

calmly.

“Because I can’t interrupt the time the swordsman spends with his pupil.”

“…Did you hear from the doctor?”

“No, I’m just guessing.”

“Is that so?”

Limon smiled bitterly

. Maybe because of this.

It was like that from the beginning, but it was because I really felt like I could read my heart against Li Qingyu now.

Of course, that was something even Wei Black Dragon couldn’t do, but she was the Black Dragon. Li Qing, who

even ate the soul of the founder and completed the dragon’s blood. If it were Wei, it might be possible to even read the mind of the sword master. It

was the scary thing about Li Qing-yu that made him think that way even though he knew that it couldn’t be.

But she is also his bride,

and as a groom who has been goofing around while the brides are working. Li Mon apologized honestly,

”

Sorry

to have kept you waiting.”

That’s

why Li Qingyu hesitated.

But in the end, the choice was Limon.

She calmly continued,

“Rather than that, Swordsman, I have something to tell you.” ”

Is there anything decided at the meeting?”

”

…?” If it’s not related to the seven dragons

, what do you have

to tell

the story you’ve been waiting for over an hour
