Chapter 619
Episode 619 Awakening (1)
A sword master who does not belong to the kingdom.
Although extremely rare, there were definitely Masters who lived their lives by traveling all over the continent, reluctant to be bound by circumstances.
The two Masters who participated in this war were also of that type.
The fact that they had to deal with goblins was quite unpleasant for the two, who went to war especially because of their past bond.
At first, the two protested and vowed not to mix swords, but soon changed their minds when they realized that all the goblins were Auro users.
If you are a prosecutor, it can’t be a heart-pounding situation.
Wouldn’t this be a great opportunity to test how much ripple effect one’s power has!
After becoming a Master, it was a series of life where I couldn’t feel how strong I had become.
As the opponents who risked their lives to clash swords gradually disappeared, that loneliness eventually returned to them.
I finally got to stand on the right stage.
As I thought about it, I began to have a little bit of anticipation.
“Karan.”
“I know.”
The two glanced behind them.
“Flies have been noisy since yesterday.”
chuck-!
The moment when I thought the tip of the sword was shaking for a moment.
The sword of a middle-aged man called Karan slashed through the streets and cut down trees.
coo-!
let the tree fall
There was Soyoung, who was quietly looking at the two.
Holding a short sword in reverse.
When I blocked the blow casually and showed it, even Karan, who flew the sword, admired it.
“It’s a great skill with a woman’s body.”
It seems that he is not just an errand boy.
Soyoung, who looked down at the hand holding the sword bottle, grinned this time.
“As expected, a Master is a Master.”
It’s just that they came to provoke you.
I hope you can see through the immersion technique.
You didn’t get the title of Master for nothing.
She was determined and hid her presence.
Having melted her own body in the air, she quietly scattered like a gust of wind.
Even though we are looking at each other with our own eyes, we cannot feel the other person’s presence at all, so how should we express this gap?
The two middle-aged men laughed happily.
“Thirty years have passed since he reached his peak, but I would have thought that there would still be an Assassin who was so stealthy that I couldn’t even notice.”
“ha ha ha. It was said that the Kingdom of Celia was a country of the strong, and that was true. Maybe you’ll get lucky and get a chance to face the saint and the sword.”
If only those who guarded the territory had this level of skill.
When dealing with the owner of the principality, wouldn’t it be possible to face the sword while burning this body?
Even he is afraid of his own power and is unable to bring it all out.
If he is a saint who is considered the best of all time, wouldn’t he be able to endure even if he puts all his strength into it?
Such a thought came into the minds of the two middle-aged men.
Karan laughed bitterly and touched the sheath hanging from his waist.
“I want to show you more tricks, but if you let me live, it will definitely become a nuisance.”
Did you feel hesitation in the way you speak?
A middle-aged man who was looking at Karan cautioned him.
“Forget about halfway thoughts. Even if you look like that, you’re not an easy opponent.”
That’s right.
Karan decided to let go of his moderate mind.
I reflect on myself for having hesitated for a moment.
Instead, he spoke bluntly.
“You, Philes, worry too much. I’ll take care of it, so just stand at a distance and watch.”
In the end, Karan drew his sword.
Gyeeing-!
Once I made up my mind, the long sword body let out a resonant sound as if it were happy.
The intimidation of a sword master.
Even though he was hiding, the two eyes looking directly at him seemed so deep that he didn’t even know the floor.
So-young, who looked at him as if nothing was wrong, got goosebumps at the implicit momentum.
‘I think it will be difficult to fight back.’
Originally, while he was attracting the sword master’s attention, the other guards planned to attack the rear one after another, but looking at the current situation, it was all over.
Just having one sword master in front of you will naturally give you strength in your hands.
A posture that shows no gaps at all.
A feeling of pressure, as if your entire body would be hacked to pieces if you were careless even for a moment.
If it was just one person, if two sword masters worked together, it would be difficult for even her to endure.
While watching Zeke, I thought that the Sword Master was also a person, but that was a completely wrong idea.
I could keenly feel why a master who had reached full maturity was called ‘the state of becoming a god’.
They were never human.
‘It would be best to see the opportunity and run away.’
In the end, So-young completely abandoned the idea of fighting.
Instead, he looked around to find an effective way to get away without being seen.
“Are you trying to run away?”
Sensing his intentions, Karan shook his head.
“What a foolish idea. Do you think you can run away?”
“Will you be considerate so I can run away?”
“ha ha ha. can’t be I don’t like cutting women, but I’m in debt. forgive me.”
“You’re an ugly knight who abandoned chivalry.”
At first glance, the tone was relaxed, but in the heart, it was only nervous.
As if preparing for the impending shock.
Soyoung gripped her sword.
just as expected.
When I thought the new type of Karan was a little blurry.
Kwaaaang-!
A clean-cutting sword flies aiming at his side.
Soyoung, who barely managed to get the sword away, took three or four steps back.
“Aww!”
It seemed that the previous blow was simply a joke.
It was a sword that was so heavy that it made my hands tingle.
‘I have to get out of the defensive!’
So-yeong, who became impatient, quickly pulled herself away.
While retreating, he swung his sword a few times to blow off the sword aura, but Karan eased the shock with a light sword strike.
“Where!”
He hit the ground and followed closely.
Kaaaang-!
Caan-!
It’s just a few bumps.
However, with just that, Soyoung felt like she would miss the sword right away.
To think that he, an Assassin and no one else, was one-on-one with the Sword Master.
To think that the stealth technique that I prided myself on not being noticed by anyone would be useless.
Her usual pride became a handshake and tightened her throat.
Eventually, the moment her steps caught up with Karan.
“Goodbye.”
with a final goodbye.
A huge bastard sword came down to the shoulder blades.
* * *
The battle became more intense.
It didn’t take long for the goblin army, which had been dominant at first, to gradually lose to the Leven mercenaries, and soon the tide was completely reversed.
It was an army made entirely of mana users, but they did not have much mana.
In addition, swordsmanship was at the level of an introductory level, so it was not up to the mercenaries who had lived on the battlefield for a long time and learned their experience.
“Keew!”
“Quaaaaagh!”
In the midst of many screams.
It was seen that the goblins’ forces were noticeably reduced.
In the end, the commanders who were worse than gave the order.
“Retreat for a moment!”
“Retreat after!”
The goblins who heard the order showed their back even while fighting on the front line and ran away.
However, there is nothing worse than retreating without any plan on the battlefield.
It goes without saying that it is easier to catch a fleeing enemy than a fighting one.
Naturally, the main force leading the Leven Mercenary Corps moved forward.
“Don’t miss it! Chase to the end!”
“Wow!”
“Wow!”
The mercenaries who were chasing them with arms in their hands start catching up on the street one by one.
The goblins who couldn’t escape soon were brutally killed at their hands.
“The Lord is dying! Key profit!”
“Keo-eo-eok!”
In an instant, the surroundings turned into a sea of blood.
The corpses of goblins were scattered all over the place.
The monster’s bloody smell was unbearable.
Having clearly reduced the number of goblins, the Leven mercenary corps satisfactorily turned their forces.
“stop! Do not approach the walls!”
“Stop the chase!”
The vanguard turns around and the soldiers fall back.
Their shiny plate armor had already become sticky with goblin blood.
But even so, their faces were bright.
The anxiety of having to deal with 10,000 mana users was also momentary.
It was because it was worth doing more than I thought after fighting directly with swords.
The vice-captain rode his horse and approached the mercenary leader.
“Contrary to expectations, we were able to win easily.”
“ha ha ha. Even if you have talent, monsters are still monsters. It was thanks to the good command of the vice-captain. I would like to thank you on behalf of the soldiers.”
“Stop that. I’ve done something…”
The vice-captain hurriedly lowered his head and took an example.
The leader felt better because things went better than expected.
‘If I do this, they will be satisfied.’
He won a great victory without borrowing the power of black righteous people.
Is that all?
The horde of goblins, which had been approaching ten thousand, now had only seven thousand left, so it would not be long before the principality was captured.
If you’re lucky, you might be able to drive out the goblin horde and get the recognition of King Celia and become the new master in place of Prince Soleil.
when he is in the middle of a dream.
The vice-captain spoke.
“Captain, what are you going to do now? Driving out the goblin horde within the principality is almost done, but next you should think about your relationship with Prince Soleil.”
Prince Soleil.
It must be referring to the saint of the holy kingdom.
However, he had no other choice.
If you don’t start a war now, you will die at the hands of the black righteous people, and if you start a war and win, there will surely be a clash with the saint.
However, in the latter case, an excuse can be made.
He said that he only recaptured the principality, an unexplored land occupied by monsters, instead.
In fact, it was clear that he caused a war, but since he had the cause, he would not be able to punish himself severely even as a prince.
The captain’s eyes glistened with ambition.
“There is no need to be too greedy. Drive out the monsters and withdraw our troops.”
“To withdraw… are you saying you’re leaving the Duchy of Soleil?”
Starting a war and then withdrawing at the last minute?
What nonsense is this!
When the vice-captain questioned as if he had misunderstood, he replied with a nod.
“Because if I stayed in the territory, I might make a justification for the king.”
He wasn’t asking for much in the first place.
One is that black people are satisfied and go back.
The other is to expand their own position by taking credit for clearing the monsters in the principality.
However, as the vice-captain who didn’t know his intentions, he couldn’t understand his current judgment.
The vice-captain kept repeating the words he couldn’t get out of his mouth.
‘What the hell are you thinking about?’
A little over a week has passed since the black room started planning a war and started moving with the Leven Mercenary Corps as a signal.
They didn’t know that the owner of the principality was running madly toward their territory.
