#849. The swordsman’s way

* * *

For a while.

Yuna-kyung kept her silence.

No, it wasn’t just her.

The Blue Dragon Princess, the Red Dragon Princess, and the other clans of the Seven Dragons.

All the people who had followed Limon only belatedly were looking at him with complex expressions and closed lips in silence.

Ahead of the ashes of his disciple.

Grabbing an old pistol.

Limon standing still.

Rather than a person, his back was heavy, lonely, and desolate, like a rock that had been in place for over a thousand years.

made them silent

But it can’t be like this forever.

After hesitating and hesitating for a long time, Yuna-kyung carefully opened her beak.

[…Are you okay, team leader?]

“Yes, it’s okay.”

that’s a lie

Yuna-kyung thought involuntarily.

No matter how calm their expression, they answered in a calm voice.

Because I couldn’t hide the deep feelings that couldn’t be expressed in words.

That’s why Yuna-kyung muttered in a much more subdued voice.

[I regret a little that I didn’t notice that the cowboy oppa was helping us.]

“It’s not something you should blame yourself for.”

[Is that so?]

“Because that was also this guy’s choice.”

If you want to fool your enemies, you have to fool your allies first.

Whether it was to minimize the risk of betrayal being exposed, or because freedom of action was limited due to drunkenness.

like a reckless hero.

Or like a stray wolf.

Billy’s choice was to take on everything alone instead of receiving help from them until the end.

And I would have been proud.

Listen to what Limon said.

Yuna-kyung nodded slowly.

[Well, at least Cowboy oppa seemed satisfied, right?]

“To the point of absurdity.”

last minute.

held by Billy.

Recalling that smile that seemed so relieved for a person who was about to die.

He fixed the old pistol.

“Closing your eyes before the master not once, but twice, is like a nasty disciple.”

To Limon, who quietly evaluates the selfish disciple who left with a satisfied smile on his face.

Yuna-kyung asked quietly.

[But he was a good older brother, right?]

Hearing that.

Limon hesitated.

And after a short silence.

He nodded slowly.

“…okay. He was a disciple who was not ashamed of anyone.”

Of course, he stretched out saying that a gun was better than a knife.

An idiot who enjoyed drinking and gambling with women and used even his teacher to make money.

And a foolish fool who was so obsessed with his dream of becoming a hero that he went astray and had no choice but to cut it down.

But even after death, he was willing to endure the shame to do the right thing.

While saving the belongings of the disciple who resembled him the most.

Limon said quietly.

“Let’s go now.”

[…Would you mind

if we just go like this ?]

[….]

“Above all…”

Taking my eyes off the ashes piled up in front of me as they slowly spread out in the undulating mist.

Limon said coldly.

“Because it is the way of swordsmen like us to pray for peace with blood rather than alcohol.”

revive his apprentice.

Like a tool, pamper yourself and eat it.

The cost of doing so would be huge.

Before being the guardian deity of mankind, as a teacher.

Contrary to the serene and calm appearance, Limon’s golden eyes were shining brightly.

Not only Yuna-kyung, but also the Red Dragon Princess and the Blue Dragon Princess had no choice but to swallow dry saliva.

Burr.

“Why?”

“…never mind.”

Maybe it was because she suddenly stopped walking and shuddered, which made her look so strange.

Ruler asked quietly.

Wanderer answered sharply.

It hurt my pride to say that I suddenly had a creepy feeling.

After that, he slowly ran his pale fingers over his neck to avoid being noticed by Ruler, who started walking again.

she gritted her teeth.

As if I was scared.

It wasn’t just because of the goose bumps.

A tingling sensation in the neck.

And the blood on your fingers.

It made Wanderer rekindle the anger that had barely subsided.

‘Black and that dog …!’

The moment when betrayal is revealed.

She gritted her teeth as she recalled Billy throwing a knife at her without hesitation.

Of course, that would be complete suicide.

Of all the spells cast upon the resurrected Sword Master, the biggest taboo was harming Wanderers.

In the end, the knife missed.

Instead, the spell kicked Billy down.

However, the fact that even the knife he threw while bound to the spell left scars on his body drove Wanderer into a frenzy.

Besides, it was Billy’s attitude that angered Wanderer more than anything else.

[Kyahaha! I wanted to, but I guess I can’t. If I knew it would be like this, I should have tried it earlier.]

[You…!]

[Now that it’s come to this, I’ll give you one last piece of advice instead of an apology for deceiving me and repaying you for giving me a second chance.

] ripped off

even while shedding blood.

Instead of suffering, smirking.

He grumbled lightly that he might have succeeded had he tried it when he was weak.

Billy said to her with the most serious eyes.

[?Miss, I don’t carelessly use forbidden arts.]

The easier it is to acquire power.

The cost is greater.

That’s why black magic is dangerous.

In particular, there is a reason why lion resuscitation is considered taboo.

Billy’s act of speaking boldly and shamelessly on the subject of deceiving and betraying himself until now drove her mad with rage.

gouge out the eyes

cut off the leg

ripping off the arm

Even though he hacked up his entire body and cast numerous curses to make him die in the most horrible way, he couldn’t get rid of his anger.

It only deepened my anger that I had been deceived by such a bastard until now.

‘Damn the sword masters…!’

Come to think of it, all other sword masters are the same.

A swordsman who died in a duel.

A sword that has completely escaped.

The sword that died while chasing after the sword.

A swordsman who died defending London.

A swordsman who died like that.

The openly uncooperative Geomyeong and the selfish Geomwang.

And after several defeats,

he revived as many as nine sword masters, including the half-corpse-like Sword Demon, but none of them did their job properly.

Now that I found out that even the most cooperative Billy was the culprit who contributed the most to destroying the World Federation.

It was a pity that he had used his lifespan to revive such things.

“…Ruler.”

“Why are you calling me?”

“Why did you say that earlier?”

“It’s just in case.”

“prepare…? something like that?”

So it was.

Why did Wanderer open his mouth sharply?

This is because Ruler’s instructions after disposing of Billy were intrusive in many ways.

However, there was no wavering in Ruler’s attitude.

“We need measures to prevent the worst.”

“It’s already the worst situation from the point of needing to prepare for that…”

“It must be so for us.”

“…”

“But the important thing is not us. It is the fate of the world.”

So, just in case, follow your instructions.

Listen to what Ruler said.

Wanderer frowned.

It is the fate of the world and Nabal.

Because she was interested only in her current position and future, she did not want to accept Ruler’s instructions.

But I couldn’t refute it openly.

Even more so now that he has already lost most of his sword masters and is in a poor position.

That’s why when Wanderer licks his lips.

Sseuseuk.

with a full gun.

The fog that had been fluctuating along with the magi dissipated.

The fog that had been blocking his vision until now disappeared and Wanderer reflexively became wary of the open space that suddenly appeared.

No, she tried to stand tall

, but she couldn’t.

“This is…”

Waves flowing instead of fog.

Sunlight pouring in from above.

Coral lights that reflect the light like stained glass.

It’s definitely in the same fog, but there’s no such thing as the eerie atmosphere that was creepy until now.

Rather, it is a beautiful sight that feels like the middle of a temple rather than the most warm and reverent deep sea.

Even the cold-blooded Wanderer had no choice but to look at it as if possessed for a moment.

“…at las.”

Unlike such a wanderer.

Ruler was not bewitched by the scenery.

No, I didn’t see the scenery itself at all.

There is only one thing that catches his attention now.

In the middle of this large space are two sarcophagi with human figures carved on top of a towering altar.

To be precise, there was only one sword in front.

“Kangma Doryongsword!”

The sheath was wrapped around the thick chains extending from all directions, and only the hilt was visible.

Nevertheless, Ruler clenched his fists as he looked at the sword, which had an unusual energy even at first glance.

The fact that he had finally found the 6th Seven Arcs after going through countless regressions for a long time made his dry heart throb.

‘As long as that’s all…!’

Wanderer also flashed his eyes.

Of course, if you get the Kangma Dragon Sword, you will make up for the loss you suffered from losing the sword masters.

It would be possible to escape from being threatened by the Heavenly Demon or being unable to even refute the words of the Ruler.

That’s why I’m going to have a good time.

A wanderer who steps forward.

Ruler didn’t bother holding on.

As long as I can collect the Seven Arcs and break the seal, I just quietly watched as if it didn’t matter who got it.

…no, it seemed so.

Until he pointed his hand at Wanderer’s back.

So before she even realized it.

Ruler snaps his fingers.

The moment the light from the tip of that finger flew towards Wanderer’s back.

Quaang!

“…?!”

Wanderer was frightened.

It wasn’t just that there was a sudden roar from behind.

It was because the tail of a black shadow that rose out of the air at the same time as the roar passed past her neck.

It didn’t even end there.

The moment the shadow turned the palm of your hand.

It was because the intangible rock mirror, which had the power to crush even iron, was aiming for Wanderer’s life.

Perong!

However, the ambush failed again this time.

It was because the ruler who appeared in front of the Wanderer suddenly exploded the dark mirror with a single kick.

“I’m so sorry.”

Was it because he understood that the ambush would no longer work?

In the end, the shadow, which completely broke its hiding and revealed its true form, muttered as if it was genuinely regretful.

“It might be difficult for you, but I wanted to at least deal with her first.”

elegant black hair.

Beautiful outstretched horns.

A particularly long and thin ring.

Even the wings made of shadows.

Looking at a girl who exudes intense dragon psionics all over her body in perfect combat readiness with a characteristic appearance that cannot be recognized even if she is in a crowd.

Ruler quietly opened his mouth.

“…Black Dragon Princess.”

“Yes, it is me.”

Why?

It seems that I am more than happy to have recognized myself.

Or it seems that it is nice to see the meeting that I have been looking forward to and longed for like this.

Looking at him with eyes as deep and dull as black crystals locked in the night, with an enchantingly bewitching smile on the face that always wore a calm smile.

Li Qingyu curled her red lips.

“—Ruler.”
