Solo Swordmaster

Chapter 868

#868. What are you doing, disciple?

* * *

Phuong!

“…so the team leader is gone?”

“It is.”

The half-human, half-bird that was scribbling the magic circle.

Yuna-kyung made a complicated expression after listening to Li Qing-yu’s answer, who grabbed one zombie with her long tail and swung it to destroy the other zombie.

“Um, I’m anxious.”

“Did you mean the Command Lord?”

“It must be precisely that she took the dragon sword.”

The words of Charlotte, who pierced the heads of dozens of zombies by telekinetically controlling the bullets fired from her rifle.

While Maia, who blew away several zombies with her fists, received it with a sneer.

Yuna-kyung asked as if moaning.

“Shall I write it?”

“I’ll definitely use it.”

“There’s no way the Command Lord, who’s already cornered, can’t cover his back.”

“Especially since I have the strongest card in my hand that can overturn this whole situation at once.”

The barrier is running out of control.

after the zombies appear.

Listening to the conversation between the princesses who were fighting fiercely while protecting Shir and Yuna-kyung, who were busy drawing magic circles together.

The blue dragon princess of the parallel world made a complicated expression.

“Do you think the power of the Sword Demon and the Sword Emperor is that much?”

“If you think about it, you would know that the seven ancestors and the seven ancestors also perished in your world, right?”

“It was just bad luck that Heung ancestors were defeated. If you had fought properly, you could not have been defeated.”

“That’s such an arrogant word.”

“…Does even you, the Golden Dragon Princess, say that?”

The short-haired green dragon princess hardened her face at Charlotte’s words, which were completely different from the golden dragon princess with roll hair.

After Geomje and Geomma.

Not a single sword master was born.

That’s why, in their world where the age of heroes did not exist, the sword master was so legendary that it was hard to be afraid of.

“If you’re that strong, I’d like to meet you.”

“I’m sorry about that. I hope that never happens.”

At the words of the long-haired Red Dragon Princess.

Li Qingyu smiled bitterly.

And he added one more word.

“Especially about the resurrection of the Sword Emperor.”

“I’m sorry I don’t understand. Still, isn’t the Sword Emperor better than the Sword Demon?”

“Well, is it really?”

“…?”

Yuna-kyung tilted her head.

A sword demon that slaughtered one-tenth of humanity.

The sword system that defeated the seven dragons and opened a new era.

If you were to ask who was more dangerous between the two, it would have been natural for the sword master, the worst sword master in history, rather than the historical hero Sword Emperor.

“Isn’t that a bit strange?”

“What?”

“Leaving aside the Sword Master, almost no records are handed down to the Sword Emperor.”

“That’s because it’s so long ago…”

“Even though there are much more detailed records about the Queen of Magic and the Queen of the Fairy in the distant past?”

Yuna-kyung stopped drawing the magic circle.

And looking at Li Qingyu, he made a complicated expression.

“Are you saying that the Sword Emperor’s feat was fabricated?”

“No, it’s not manipulation. Because his feat of defeating the seven dragons is certainly true. It’s just…”

Cheek!

turn your body around

Chopping up a few zombies with a kick containing a chain-honed crustacean.

Li Qingyu continued quietly.

“According to our Seven Dragons, the Sword Emperor was actually more of a hero than a hero.”

“…Isn’t that what it is?”

“Depending on the case and circumstances, that may be the case.”

Yu Na-kyung’s expression became more subtle.

In other words, it is because he read the true meaning that a normal hero and a hero are clearly different beings.

I wasn’t sure what the difference was.

On the other hand, I clearly know the difference.

Also, the black-haired girl who led the world peace project looked in the direction where Limon had disappeared and muttered quietly.

“I hope the swordsman will be okay.”

* * *

Enemy.

Pick up some grilled ribs to go.

Take it as it is and bite it in one bite.

After swallowing the melted meat in your mouth and taking a sip of alcohol from the glass bottle.

To the Sword Emperor who twitched his eyebrows.

Limon asked politely.

“Does it fit your mouth?”

“Yes, it tastes better than before.”

The Geomje nodded slightly, saying that it didn’t seem like they had been idle for hundreds of years.

and right after that.

Fuck!

“The food is so delicious that you can’t taste the alcohol, you bastard!”

If the food isn’t good, I wonder if it’s too much to overturn the table and kick it just because it’s delicious.

Limon didn’t ask.

I just kicked my shoulder and rolled back, straightening my body in an instant and naturally taking out a few dishes from the shadows.

“…what is this?”

“This is a dish prepared because you might want to have a snack rather than a meal.”

“Oh yeah?”

The Sword Emperor nodded his whale.

and kicked it again

Fuck!

“If this insectivore disciple had something good like this, he should have brought it out a long time ago! Are you making fun of me because I’m a woman and I can’t cook better than you?”

“Could it be?”

“Tsk.”

This time it rolled over two laps.

Get up right away like a tumbleweed.

without changing a single expression.

For a while, I frowned at Limon, who answered with the utmost respect.

Geomje tore the pancakes and ate them.

Then, after taking a sip of the drink, he lifted the bottle again and said casually.

“Hey, let’s talk.”

“What story would you like to hear?”

“That’s what you need to know, you bastard. Shall I, who was dead, ask?”

It looks like it’s kicking back right away.

Limon calmly opened his mouth at the gaze of the Sword Emperor, who was glaring fiercely at his legs.

“Then let me tell you about the country first.”

“country?”

“Master’s country.”

Was it because the words were unexpected?

Limon closed his eyes as she stopped tilting the vial.

And I remembered.

A small peninsula at the tip of the continent.

It’s not particularly developed.

Even if it’s not where you were born.

There was only one reason why he purposely built a sword tower in such a corner country and kept it for hundreds of years.

“?Master’s homeland is still called Goryeo.”

“…”

“It’s called the Republic of Goryeo to be exact.”

Consideration.

long ago.

The homeland where the Sword Emperor was born.

Without being swept away by the tribulation caused by the sword demon for that one reason only, they were protected by the swordsmith who built the sword tower.

After all, about a country that enjoyed peace and prosperity as the world leader for hundreds of years.

Limon calmly continued his explanation.

about the history of the country.

there was a crisis

how did you overcome

Unfortunately, the dynasty is over, but the lineage of the royal family still remains, and they are living in abundance with internal money.

Geomje, who had been listening to what he had to say while chewing on snacks, swallowed another sip of alcohol and said casually.

“So what?”

“I told you because you must have been curious.”

“I’m curious, what the hell does that country have to do with me?”

“Anyway, that country is Master’s hometown.”

The Sword Emperor’s arrogant words.

Limon calmly accepted.

Because there was no way that he, as a disciple, did not know that she had no patriotism or love for hometown.

Nevertheless, the reason Limon brought up the story about the Republic of Korea was because of the story to be told later.

“Actually, there is something I must tell you.”

“What?”

“After Master passed away, the Seven Dragons were led by seven princesses who inherited dragon blood.”

“Hmm so?”

“And I made the seven princesses my brides.”

“…okay?”

The first Sword Master.

A great man who faced seven dragons all his life.

When Geomje heard that his disciple ate with a descendant of a dragon, he put down his chopsticks to pick up japchae.

And instead, he tipped the vial and swallowed a sip of the poisoned wine.

I laughed.

“Good job.”

“…are you not angry?”

“Are you angry? to you?”

to his blunt question.

Tilt your head slightly.

The Sword Emperor immediately asked back.

“why me?”

“…”

“Unlike me, who only killed seven dragons, you ate all of them, didn’t you? Then you should praise him.”

“…”

“Oh fuck. It’s unfair to think about it. If the seven dragons were male, I would have eaten them all. Why are they all female?”

Thanks to that, she died as an old maid for 28 years, so it was because of them that she became a virgin ghost.

Looking at Geomje, who grumbled disapprovingly and drank again.

Limon smiled bitterly.

To be honest.

It wasn’t unexpected.

Because he was convinced that this would be the case with any teacher he knew.

That’s why, even though he was resurrected after hundreds of years, he feels both joy and sadness at seeing his teacher who hasn’t changed at all.

Take a bite of braised mackerel.

After taking another sip of alcohol.

The Geomje asked while wiping the drops of alcohol from his mouth.

“So, do you have anything more to say, disciple of a dirty bone?”

“Is there anything in particular you would like to hear?”

“uh.”

“What is?”

A little while ago, I gave you a bruise for talking freely.

Limon was not taken aback by the whim of the Sword Emperor that he wanted to hear something now.

Because I knew that she didn’t kick me one more time for saying she didn’t say it on her own, and that just by asking her with words, she was paying attention to me a lot.

So, looking at him who has the attitude to answer any question honestly.

The Sword Emperor threw something.

Took.

“Why did you live your life this way?”

“…Where did you get this book from?”

“I picked it up roughly on the way for a walk.”

Even if the picture is half.

The content is short and clear.

A children’s book depicting a hero fighting a demon with a sword.

No, the Geomje raised his eyes at Limon, who had fallen silent after seeing the children’s biography of great men that had collected his heroic feats.

“Did I teach you this, motherfucker?”

“…of course not.”

“Then explain. Why did you do this?”

Even when he heard that he had taken seven princesses as his bride, he smiled broadly.

Regarding his own heroic story, Limon did not immediately respond to the question of his teacher, who was cold and gave off a bloody spirit.

Just slowly raise your head.

He just asked softly, looking directly at her with calm golden eyes.

“Do you need a reason?”

“…under!”

Was it because there was nothing wrong?

After laughing out loud once.

The Sword Emperor shook his hand.

“done. The reason is obvious anyway.”

“I’m sorry if you felt offended.”

“I am sorry for the dog who shoots a teacher once.”

Unlike the harsh words, the Geomje did not show any displeasure.

Rather, it seems that he liked the confidence of a disciple who dared to face the sky-like master, saying that he had lived dozens of times longer than himself.

I just smiled and tilted the vial.

gulp.

Is it because I drank too much?

After swallowing the liquor that spilled out little by little, as if the bottle of strong liquor that had been filled to the brim had now run out.

She quietly opened her mouth.

“If you do this, it seems that you have solved all your regrets.”

“…”

That moment.

The Sword Emperor could feel it.

Limon, who had not been shaken by any words or blows until now, was shaken for the first time.

But I didn’t care.

I just slightly turned my head and looked at the full moon on the other side of the sea.

“What are you doing, disciple?”

put the sword beside you

I fixed my eyes on the sea.

in a completely defenseless manner.

With his back and white nape exposed to Limon.

she said quietly.

“—Come on, don’t cut my throat.”
