#924. Enough
Sword Master.
The absolute who had only 13 people.
If you ask who is the most terrible among them, the target is usually fixed.
A swordsman who caused World War II.
The Sword Demon that slaughtered 10% of humanity.
As a sword demon who even sacrificed the people.
And if I had to pick just one of them, I would usually say a sword horse or a swordsman.
Compared to the Sword Demon and the Sword Man, who threw the world into chaos, the Sword Demon’s evil deeds ended up in a small country called Valkaria.
Even if they weren’t sword masters, tyrants who committed such evil were not uncommon, if not uncommon.
nevertheless.
Limon thought differently.
Sword Demon Vlad Chepes.
He said that his second disciple was the worst sinner and sword master in human history.
It wasn’t just about learning black magic.
Because sacrificing the people he was supposed to protect wasn’t enough, and his swordsman’s sword, which could pierce even the soul, was that cruel and dangerous.
A sword master who becomes a swordsman whose footsteps in life he has lived has acquired a swordsman who can even shatter the soul.
That in itself was proof of how corrupted Vlad had become.
That’s why Limon killed Vlad.
In that sense, among the 7 Sword Masters from the Sword Tower, Vlad was the one who could be said to be his fault.
So it was.
Right now at this moment.
Why did Limon make a complicated expression?
“…You’re still alive.”
hole in the chest.
One arm exposed to the bone.
Half-corpse rather than human.
Looking at Vlad, who didn’t look fine no matter how he looked at it, Limon’s eyes sank heavily.
The fact that he fought Johanna had already been told through Li Qingyu’s telepathy.
The injury wasn’t surprising.
Warlocks are better at hiding and running than any superhuman in human history.
Not to mention, Vlad, who was also a sword master, would have been able to secure his personal safety in any predicament.
Unless, of course,
Vlad’s condition is a mess.
It was a miracle that even a sword master with strong vitality was alive.
In addition to Jinryongseongong, the confrontation with Johanna, who handles the power of the Seven Arcs, was something even Vlad could not fully handle.
Especially since he was a mess.
Even so, the reason why he was able to keep that lifeline attached was clear.
“I’m a sword master, but I’m also a warlock.”
“I’m proud of you, bitch.”
Limon clicked his tongue.
And he asked the disciple, who was living a life that should have died long ago, even using black magic.
“What do you mean stop me?”
“It is as I said.”
Looking at Limon in front of the hole of light made by Seven Arcs with deeply sunken eyes.
said Vlad.
“Did you forget? The fact that there are taboos that sword masters must never violate.”
hear that
Limon fell silent.
It wasn’t because it was absurd that Vlad, who was the most heinous swordsman among sword masters, said such a thing.
To put it bluntly, the opposite.
I was stabbed to the point.
It was unavoidable.
It was Limon himself who warned
not only Vlad, but all the sword masters born in the age of heroes about the ‘taboo’.
That’s why Limon spoke heavily.
“So you want me to stand by this?”
“It means that there is a sword master better suited than the master to close that door.”
That moment.
Limon twitched his eyebrows.
As an ordinary person would have known, the Sword Master, who came back from the dead by the Lion Resurrection Law, is an existence that cannot give up his long-cherished wish.
Not to mention, among all sword masters, he has the most intense obsession with his long-cherished wish.
For that reason, Vlad’s deterioration, who had been serving as the spearhead of the World Federation, was so unexpected.
“…Are you giving up on your long-cherished dream?”
“No, it’s just now that I know my true longing.”
who did it
They say they know ten ways under water, but they don’t know one way inside people.
Even that was true of his own mind.
He even learned black magic and committed all sorts of sins with only one desire to see his family again.
But when it went to the sword gun.
he met
Magic Lord Carol.
A monarch who lost his family and ran amok.
However, in the parallel world, the old man who did not hesitate to betray and deceive just to return to his family because his family was safe.
It wasn’t a particularly deep relationship.
It was only to the point of sharing information while accompanying him for a while at the sword gun.
However, while meeting him and sharing various stories, Vlad got to know him.
What is your real dream?
What were you doing wrong.
That’s why I took a step forward and looked at the hole in the light with heavy sunken eyes.
Vlad said quietly.
“So go Master.”
“…”
“I will take responsibility for my mistakes.”
The reason why Johanna became the new ruler and was able to unseal the Seven Arcs was because the World Federation had been dominant in the past.
He said that he would pay for his sins as the culprit who fought against the Seven Dragons as a member of the World Federation.
Looking at Vlad talking calmly.
Limon was silent for a moment.
In fact, there was no guarantee that what he said was true.
No matter how much he helped the princesses escape from Johanna, Vlad is a sword master and a warlock at the same time.
You’re never believable
This might also be a ploy to sabotage Limon.
If the Constellations help them cross over into the world, it will be easier to revive their families instead.
And the way to confirm the truth was simple.
It’s because you have to swear on a sword.
“okay.”
But Limon didn’t bother to force Vlad to swear.
After nodding.
I just turned around.
Even with a sword.
Even knowing that it could be dangerous if Vlad stabbed him in the back.
However, Limon didn’t bother to be wary of Vlad, and Vlad also didn’t look back at Limon, who was leaving.
or black magician.
whether they ever fought each other.
Even though they may have been excommunicated now, it was because they knew each other as much as they were master and disciple.
What is the true long-cherished wish of a disciple, and the fact that only the teacher can fulfill that fate.
“Master, can I ask you one last question?”
“What do you mean?”
So before he leaves.
Vlad suddenly opened his mouth.
And without looking back at Limon, he quietly asked, fixing his eyes on the hole in the light.
“If you were to sacrifice an ox for the sake of the greater good or abandon the greater good for the sake of the ox, which would you choose?”
Was it such an unexpected question?
Limon hesitated for a moment.
And he asked a question.
“Do you really need an answer to such a stupid question?”
“…No, that’s enough.”
It’s not an answer, so I feel Limon leave with words that are more certain than any answer.
Vlad quietly closed his eyes.
The sacrifice of a cow for the great.
Loss of cause for cattle.
What if you had to choose between the two?
It was a man named Limon who had been proving it with his life over hundreds of years.
That’s why he chose to fight her instead of taking Johanna’s outstretched hand.
If it had been Johanna, she would have chosen the cause without the slightest hesitation.
okay.
If only logically.
It might make sense to sacrifice a cow for a greater cause.
However, to join hands with the Constellations like that meant eventually making one’s own family into a ‘cattle’ that could be sacrificed at any time.
The Constellations will tell you.
Stars have infinite power.
Even if he sacrificed his family, it would be enough to gather more power and resurrect him later.
Anyway, in the constellation, you will be able to enjoy eternal happiness without any pain or suffering.
But can it truly be called happiness?
die as needed.
resurrected several times.
To live forever deprived of the freedom to suffer and suffer?
People usually don’t even talk about happiness or paradise. Rather, it was called
-Hell.
Yes.
If he brings his family back to life, it means pushing them into hell.
Whether or not to join hands with the Constellations.
It was the same anyway.
As an immortal sword master, if he wanted to be with his family, he had no choice but to revive himself every time he died, forever.
so obvious
However, after realizing the fact that he had not realized because of his obsession, Vlad understood.
that he cannot.
no i don’t want to do that.
Yes.
After all, he didn’t want to resurrect his family by pushing them into hell.
I just wanted a chance to undo my regrets.
When I was young, I was training in the sword tower.
to come back and rule the country.
Because later it’s too late
Even though I became a sword master to protect my family, I regretted not spending much time or making them happy until they died of old age.
But because it’s a mess.
Even if I can’t bring back my regrets.
Because I don’t want to regret any more.
Knowing that if the Constellations invade the world, even the afterlife where the souls of the family are located will not be intact.
I hope that my family can enjoy rest, at least in the afterlife.
Vlad opened his closed eyes.
Ugh.
Had it already escaped the influence of Limon’s sword piercing?
The moment the hole of light wriggled again and monsters started pouring out of it.
He stretched out his window.
Kwaaang!
Flashes of blood flashed.
A bunch of monsters that were scattered all over as blood.
Even so, he was not shaken even when he saw the monsters pouring out without hesitation and the intact light hole.
just kept moving forward.
Parss.
wielding a spear
roaring like lightning
Every time you wipe out a monster.
Her body, which was already a mess, was unable to withstand the enormous burden and gradually crumbled.
But Vlad didn’t care.
Rather, it even raised the sword and accelerated the disintegration of the body.
It was unavoidable.
Even though it’s not as perfect as the one Vlad himself uses, the forbidden sword for the sword is a sword that has the power to pierce even space.
Clearing the hole of light that could not be broken with that was, of course, ordinary spearmanship.
It was difficult even with his ‘thorn that pierces death’, the most hideous of all swordsmen.
Even more so now that he is forcibly moving his half-corpse body with black magic.
But only two.
Even with this messed up body, there was a way to deal with the hole in the light.
After going through the waves of monsters for that purpose, the moment Vlad finally reached the hole of light.
Fu-wook!
one starlight.
pierced his chest.
A long tentacle protruding from the hole of light pierced his heart like a spear.
No matter how sudden it was and even if his body was not normal, even the sword master could not avoid the surprise.
But even with his heart pierced like that, Vlad didn’t stop walking.
With her body crumbling to ashes, she took a step forward and raised her swordsman even further.
However, it was very different from the swordsman he usually used.
In the first place, the ‘thorn that pierces death’ was after he dabbled in black magic.
A sword that has changed as a result of the fall.
It was the result of resentment for the death that took away his family and his tenacity to meet his family again.
Hades Nether Purgatory Elysion, etc.
It was for this reason that all of his swordsmen were given names that meant the underworld.
If you can’t bring your family back to life, in order to meet them even if you have to go through the road that leads directly to the underworld.
but that’s wrong.
can’t be done in the end.
shouldn’t even be done.
From birth, he was a half swordsman who could not be completed.
That’s why his flesh and skin turned to ashes before he knew it, and now he drew a bloody spear with his bony hand.
As a curse on the world.
with resentment towards oneself.
with remorse for the past.
Now with irreversible regret.
A mess that could never be thrown away.
Because if there is a God, he has lived to kill God, if there is an underworld, to pierce the underworld, and if there is a providence, to break it.
And now, he has been fighting to the death with Limon, including the princesses of the Seven Dragons.
Because he gave up his own life.
With the sword that I finally achieved.
Kick the ground with your toes.

Thorns That Pierces Destiny
Fate’s End
, Balaur’s Death?
Like
that…
with the spear extended.
Burning his whole body with bloody naturalization.
The moment when the Sword Master, who may have been corrupted but fought only for his family all his life, reconciled with a single flash and disappeared beyond the hole of light.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
?The brilliance that spread and covered the whole world from the dungeon was dyed bloody.
