0.01 Second Sword Master Episode 105
‘I didn’t mean to do such a dramatic production.’
Is it because of the reversed bluff?
When I came to my senses, I was standing on top of the dragon’s head.
“Aslan…”
Perhaps it was displeased that a human or something like that dared to stand on top of the dragon’s head, Flame frowned and growled.
But either way I
“I should have warned you not to cause a riot in the castle where the people are, Flame.”
He looked down at the dragon insignificantly and scolded him.
“Are my words funny?”
“…”
Flame straightened his frown and fell silent.
I turned my gaze to the Pope among the paladins below.
“Welcome to Eli Kingdom, Pope. But so is yours. How dare you draw a sword without permission in my territory. You are cheeky.”
“Yeah, you guys? What disrespect to the Pope now…!”
Looking at the armor he was wearing, he looked like the leader of the Paladins here.
I looked straight at the captain and said.
“Did I say rude? If you want, I will personally show you what real rudeness is.”
right at that moment.
Roaring-!!
As the fire rune was activated, small flames began to sway all over my body.
The size of the fire was not so big because it was a flame that I used only my own strength, not a momentary superpower.
I guess I can show you as much as my whole body is slightly on fire.
By the way,
“Hoo. Are you fighting after all, Aslan?”
As the flame under my feet began to radiate red energy together, a hideous aura began to spread in all directions.
“Hee, hee-!”
“Ugh!”
The Paladins were on the verge of falling to their knees in surprise, and the head of the Knights who had been teasing me was unable to say anything because his face was frozen.
It was a time when I felt like I was about to be eaten by the energy of the flame as my feet were gradually getting hotter.
“Stop it!”
Flame’s energy, which was boiling in full swing at the urgent cry, stopped.
The Pope stepped down from the carriage and intervened between us and the paladin.
“Please stop fighting. We are not here to see blood.”
“is it? I don’t even know how to fight properly anyway. Then follow me to the palace.”
I spoke to Flame as I slowly lifted myself up again.
“If they look like they’re doing something stupid while entering the palace, burn them up, Flame.”
“hehehe. It’s easy if that’s the case.”
Flame let out a sinister laugh and looked down at the paladins following me.
“Ugh…”
“Hey.”
The paladins, who were so frightened, couldn’t even move forward properly because the flames that were holding up behind them kept getting nervous.
Flame was urging them to do so.
“What are you doing? Stop procrastinating and move quickly.”
The overpowering of the baseline seemed to be very certain.
* * *
Aslan fluttered his cloak and had already flown far away and was nowhere to be found.
and behind,
coo-! coo-!
The red dragon was following the procession with footsteps making the ground shake.
“Woah, this must be a crazy country. The king of the kingdom disregarding the church. even······.”
The knight commander glanced at the dragon that was following him and quickly turned his head.
“You treat a dragon like a pet. This is impossible.”
Rehenna was also shocked by that.
To think that there was a being who could control that dragon at will.
Perhaps the dragon knight that only exists in the imagination is Aslan?
“Salute to the great king!”
“insect-!”
As the palace gates opened, I saw the knights paying their respects to Aslan, who was leading them.
Their voices boomed, and the Pope and the Paladins came inside.
“The palace is very simple.”
The commander of the Holy Knights seemed a little shocked.
The appearance of the outside of the palace is unparalleled in splendor, but this is because the palace, where the king lives, looked very monotonous.
“I heard that the kingdom of Eli is wiping away all the money on the continent. But why the hell does the palace look so shabby…”
I didn’t understand.
The king deliberately spends money to make the royal palace magnificent in order to enhance his status.
But here it was the exact opposite.
“I’ve heard of it before. It is said that King Aslan has constantly spent money for the people and enriched their lives ever since he was the commander of the Great Division. It is said that he did not spend any money on his residence and this royal palace.”
“that······.”
The commander of the Holy Knights remained silent as if he had seen Aslan again.
‘That must be the quality of a lord.’
Seonggun.
How many people were called holy forces in the history of the continent?
In fact, there have always been only the strong and the weak on this continent.
There has never been a king who is truly called a saint.
However, to the people of this place, Aslan was a sage.
‘Maybe the person our church has been looking for for a long time is Aslan…’
Then, wasn’t it God’s will that the holy relic was brought here?
* * *
The pope followed them all the way in without saying a word.
At the place where all the servants and knight commanders gathered, she proudly stood in front.
“Oh oh. Is that the Pope?”
“indeed······.”
The servants seemed to be amazed at the first appearance of the Pope.
Of course, since the pope doesn’t usually show up in the world, few people have seen the existence with their own eyes.
I sat on my throne and looked at the Pope.
“Hey Pope. Now tell me why you are here.”
Then the pope looked around for a moment and replied.
“The reason I came out of the temple and came here to Eli Kingdom is…”
She pointed a finger at me and continued.
“Aslan, it was to judge you.”
“!?”
“What, what?!”
“Our king?”
The crowd murmured.
I raised my hand to calm them down and said to the Pope.
“Who dares to judge whom?”
“I am a body that moves according to the will of Rahal and Light. It is my sacred duty to purify the continent of those who stain it with evil. And I thought you were an evil disturbing the continent.”
“So you are going to judge me?”
“At first, I thought I would. But the moment I set foot in this kingdom and saw the people there, I thought a lot. Perhaps you are the one we have been waiting for…”
It was while the Pope was saying something.
“Kyo, Pope!”
Paladins urgently called the Pope from behind.
“Stop, holy relic!”
“The relic is shining!”
The holy relic they brought to this place.
It was suddenly vibrating and emitting an intense light.
The startled knights quickly put down the holy relics and retreated.
“Don’t let anyone approach you. If an unchosen person touches the relic, they will die.”
That looks a bit risky.
Are you okay?
It’s the first time I’ve seen a holy relic run amok like that.
‘Is it because of Alexander?’
I looked in the direction of Alexander.
The guy was also looking at the holy relic with fearful eyes.
It must be because he knows very well that no one can survive if touched by the power of the holy object.
However, the holy relic never harmed Alexander.
then,
‘Now is my chance.’
The reason why the holy relic reacts like that must be because of Alexander.
Then, if you ask Alexander to touch that holy relic-!
‘A new main quest will be triggered?’
The main quest that ends after raising Alexander as a hero and saving the continent!
You can get the most comfortable and easy-to-break main quest in this game.
“Alexander.”
I called Alexander, who was far away.
Then he turned to me.
“Yes, my king.”
“Go and calm that relic.”
“······Yes?”
Alexander looked at me as if he had no idea what that meant.
“Go and touch that holy relic.”
“…”
Then the pope shouted at me.
“It’s not possible! If an unchosen person carelessly touches the holy relic, they will be punished and die on the spot.”
But I know Alexander doesn’t die.
“Trust me, Alexander. You can. That relic will not kill you.”
Alexander nodded and moved closer to the relic.
“Stop! Then you really die.”
Alexander responded to the pope’s warning.
“I believe in the words of our great king more than anything else.”
“Yes?”
“He said it was fine, so I’m sure it will be fine.”
“What is that…”
The light grew stronger and stronger, and just looking at it seemed like it would go blind.
Alexander slowly approached the relic and stretched out his hand.
and the moment you touch it.
Dig-!!
The rampant light of the sacred object disappeared in an instant.
As if nothing had happened in the first place.
“…”
For a while there was silence in the hall.
said the pope, looking at Alexander in disbelief.
“Nonsense. How could I be fine even after touching the holy relic… no way······.”
Did the pope realize it now?
That Alexander is the hero chosen by the light.
“Aslan. Did you control this power?”
Well?
What else do you mean?
“I’m asking if you forcibly sealed the power of the holy object.”
Of course not.
How can I control the power of that sacred object?
But before I can say anything-
“Me, that!”
“The Pope!”
A magic circle of light began to form under Alexander’s feet.
I knew at once what it was.
‘It’s a pillar of light!’
A pillar of light that only the protagonist of this game can experience.
It was a symbolic event to receive the call of God and officially obtain the title of Knight of Light.
However, if anyone other than Alexander is hit by the pillar of light, they will face judgment.
That is, to die.
‘finally!’
I barely restrained myself from bursting out laughing.
In the meantime, how much effort did Alexander have to raise as a hero of the continent?
I was worried that the story was twisted because he came to our kingdom instead of going to the color kingdom, but in the end, the game was going according to the story.
‘If only Alexander could receive the mark by receiving the pillar of light now-‘
The main quest is newly triggered, and if you only block the Tekina tribe, you can escape from this damn game.
By the way,
“Not me.”
Did you say that life is always a series of variables?
“The One you have been waiting for is right there.”
Alexander muttered something, and the magic circle of light that had formed under him disappeared.
And-
“no!?”
“At the feet of our great king?”
Doesn’t that magic circle suddenly appear under me?
‘what’s this. Shit.’
I sensed that something was wrong for a long time, but it was already too late.
The magic circle started to activate, and a pillar of light fell on top of it.
Kwaaa-!!
I could see Alexander smiling at me as the pillars fell over my head.
‘Alexander. That bastard…!’
damn you’re killing me
“I will curse you for the rest of my life!!”
But the scream didn’t reach him.
This is because my body has already been summoned to a completely different place by the pillar of light.
“This is…”
It is dark everywhere.
However, the surroundings changed brightly with the voice that was heard soon after.
[He who has been called by the light.]
huge temple.
Rahal’s sanctuary that only the protagonist can step on.
There I set foot.
[You are not the existence of the prophecy we have been waiting for.]
It was the winged man standing at the far end who echoed his voice.
[Ussiel]
An angel of the heavens, and one who bestows the mark of light on the protagonist at Rahal’s sanctuary.
But his voice was full of rage.
[For someone who did not dare to step on this sacred ground.]
Ussiel stretched out his hand toward me.
[I will judge those unwashable sins here.]
It went exactly like the game.
If someone other than Alexander steps on this land, he will be judged.

Just like right now.
[Judge.]
At Ussiel’s words, the huge statues standing on either side began to move.
Two gigantic statues with a height of over 30m drew their swords and pointed them at me.
[Please accept the judgment. I can’t use any magical powers or auras here.]
Ussiel’s voice rang out loudly.
As he said, no magic or aura could be used in this sanctuary.
But-
“A filthy creature that dared to be made of a god’s plaything—”
And yet, not even this sacred sanctuary could stop my seething bravado.
“Who are you talking about judging?”
Embarrassed, Ussiel even cleared his throat.
[yes. talk your way You can never go back alive here.]
The swords held by the guardian’s verbs came closer to me.
The moment that sharp blade is about to touch my body.
“Don’t be cocky.”
I stretched out my arm toward the sharp blade, lightly snapping my fingers.
OK,
Toow-!!
There was a strong gong sound from the blade colliding with my fingers, and the body of the statue that was aiming the sword at me was about to collapse.
And as the cracks that started from the tip spread out, the black energy began to rip the statue’s body into pieces in an instant.
Kwakkwakkwak-!!
The statue of the guardian who protects this sanctuary, who judges those who dare to set foot here, has fallen to pieces just like that.
“!?”
Ussiel froze on the spot with his mouth wide open.
I said to him
“No one dares to judge me unless I allow it.”
“I decided that.”
