103 – Sharon Pierce (1)
The atmosphere of the mansion is strange.
When Sharon realized the fact, it was the first day since she stopped feeling any signs of people.
This is Sharon, who was tied up in a corner of the mansion by Hermann.
Through the gap in the door, I could see people with ominous red hair passing by.
They were Shaleam believers.
Her enemies and the targets of her extermination, who took her mother away from her.
Sharon untied the chains that bound her hands and feet. She simply did not solve it because Herman would get angry if she did so carelessly. On days like that, the punishment became more severe.
However, now it was clear that something had happened to the mansion.
You will receive your punishment later.
Sharon followed the traces of the Shale Cultists.
The steps continued towards the head’s study.
Kkeak-.
Sharon opened her door and saw an unbelievable sight.
The head of the family, Richard Pierce, was standing on the altar with a serious wound.
“Gwae, are you okay, matriarch?”

The blood people she followed behind her were already dead.
That was natural. Because the head of the family has always hated the Shale Cultists. Her dying mother also spoke. To defeat the Shale Cultists, get close to the head of the family.
The head of the family was now dealing with unidentified masked people.
The head of the family must have been injured while fighting with them.
Blood is flowing from his lower abdomen.
“How can this be…”
“Sharon. Let’s borrow your danjeon for a moment.”
“What on earth…”
Richard smiled softly at Sharon.
Sharon had no time to be embarrassed by the smile of the matriarch she had never seen before.
Richard’s mouth immediately opened.
“Please lend me your Danjeon. I need your will.”
“…Ah.”
“Can you entrust your Danjeon to me?”
Entrusting the power outage is never a rash decision. No. Is Danjeon something that can be given to others so easily that it can be said so simply? Obviously, ordinary methods do not work. It must be some kind of psychic technique. It’s something only Shame believers would use.
“Sharon. My child. Help your father for a moment.”
For the first time, the head of the family called me Ai along with my name. All doubts melted away.
Sharon nodded her head as if fascinated.
“Yes, matriarch.”
Something cut Sharon’s back.
Her vision turned black.
Suddenly, the day her mother died came to mind.
Even then, her mother had a cut on her back and her blood was pouring out of her eyes.
Her mother said that day.
Hate the Shaleamists and stay close to the head of the family.
I just follow those words.
◆
Quaaang—!
A huge ice pick passed by the spot where Ian was just moments ago.
A few strands of her cut hair float in the air and scatter.
A frozen corner, one of the hidden patterns of the final boss, Richard Pierce. It is a pattern that crushes the opponent with a horn-like pillar of ice.
Fighting the final boss in Pantaaka’s scenario is one of the worst moves possible, but that’s why there are often those who fight him as part of the fight.
Most people would have died with a single blow of his sword, but there were some who discovered a few hidden patterns.
One of them is the Ice Cube, which wipes out the opponent with a huge horn-shaped ice with just a flick of the hand.
Ice Blood Sword, Richard Pierce.
He is basically a knight and swordsman who has reached the level of mastery with the sword.
With his overwhelming swordsmanship ability, his most overwhelming ability is to cut down his opponent with a single sword without mercy.
The problem is that even when using the knight’s unique aura, it has almost reached the level of magic.
While all knights imitate magic based on sword skills using a sword, Richard can use such techniques even without a sword.
Sim-geom.
A state where one can use a sword in one’s mind even if there is no form of the sword.
If you focus all your senses only on the final boss’ sword, you will lose your life to a magic pattern that comes out of nowhere.
‘I almost died.’
That hand gesture from Richard.
If he hadn’t been aware of the index finger flicking pattern, he would have died.
It was difficult to even see it, but it was a pattern engraved in my mind because most of the people I saw had died.
I felt a chill down my spine.
It felt like all the senses in my body were on edge.
Because I narrowly avoided certain death.
Anyway, that crazy final boss bastard.
‘Just a moment ago, he had a greedy look in his eyes.’
Now they are trying to kill me without leaving any form behind.
No. Are you actually testing me?
Ian’s eyes narrowed as he looked at Richard.
The faint smile on Richard’s lips was even more ominous.
“Aren’t you hitting too hard to counterattack?”
“Maybe it’s because it’s someone else’s magic power, but I don’t want to control it.”
Do you see the end behind that old man?
I guess I felt bad when I found out that I was using Sharon’s power and magic power.
“……”
Ian took a deep breath without saying a word.
And he immediately thrust out his sword.
Third number.
The attack pierced Richard’s heart like a stab.
Kaang!
Richard’s sword easily blocks Ian’s attack.
“Ugh!”
Although shaken by the difference in aerial power, Ian moved forward.
One, two.
Damage is accumulating.
Nevertheless, the attack continues without collapsing.
It is your own black branch.
It is a natural law of nature that snow piles up in winter.
Kaaang!
From Ian’s extended sword again, sword energy like pure white snowflakes falls.
“Hoo.”
Richard let out a small exclamation without realizing it. A wizard is this good at swordsmanship. The use of the sword was amazing, but the strength of the swordsmanship was also somehow familiar.
However, Ian’s sword falls into the ground without reaching Richard.
A snowflake that had bloomed fell around Sharon and then disappeared.
Ian saw that Sharon’s pupils were twitching.
It was clear that he was somewhat aware of his surroundings.
It’s probably just a situation where your mind has become blurred due to sharing the Danjeon.
Richard opened his mouth coldly.
“Does he think he can cut that kid?”
Jeobbuk.
He took a step towards Sharon.
“Do you think I’ll just let you cut this kid down?”
Sharon’s shoulders flinch.
Look at that clever final boss. Are you now working like that?
Our heroine, stupid Sharon, had a high chance of getting caught up in it.
“Of course you won’t leave me alone.”
“That’s right.”
“Because you don’t want others hunting the food you raised.”
Richard’s brow furrowed.
Crack.
“sh*t!”
Quaaa…
Ian rolled onto his side, only to receive a deep cut on his thigh.
“I thought it was a coincidence.
“…….”
“But that’s not the case.”
The desire in Richard’s eyes deepened.
“I know my skills. It’s an ability I’ve never shown to anyone.”
I didn’t have the energy to answer.
My cut thigh felt tingly.
Ian ripped the sleeve of her dress and quickly stopped the bleeding on her thigh.
“Ugh.”
This is the extent of Richard’s two counterattacks.
With difficulty standing up again, Ian opened her mouth.
Not towards Richard, but towards Sharon.
“Sharon, wake up. You must have just seen it. Even if you didn’t see it, you must have felt it.”
There is no response. But she is confident that she is listening.
“It’s your mother’s swordsmanship. Yergina, say something.”
“Yes, yes. I saw it too! Richard Pierce swallowing your mother!”
Sharon’s unfocused pupils began to shake violently.
But Richard stood in the way.
“Are you starting to fight with your mouth instead of your sword? That’s really ugly.”
Richard coldly raised the corners of his mouth.
“Sharon Pierce.”
Richard’s nickname.
“Trust Abimal. That is a trick of deception.”
Sharon’s shaking pupils gradually calm down.
“The snowflake technique is only completed when snowflakes bloom. Does that child think he can make snowflakes bloom? That’s just tricking the eyes with magic.”
Sharon’s head suddenly lost its strength, like a doll whose strings had been cut.’
Richard looked back at Ian with a brightened smile and madness.
“Child. It won’t work out the way you think.”
Okay.
Ian gritted his teeth.
Yes.
That was also what made Richard difficult.
Compared to his abilities, he is cunning and insidious.
He is a person who raised his children simply to absorb them.
‘I have no choice but to show it.’
Taaat!
Ian kicked the ground.
Jump straight towards Richard.
I feel like I am jumping towards death.
But there is no more way.
You can either close that stupid heroine’s eyes or open them.
Because that was the only way, Ian rushed towards the final boss.
— Kaaang!
As soon as Ian makes a move, Richard counterattacks.
However, it is different from before.
As if he would not tolerate Ian’s foolish actions, Richard’s sword filled the front as if divided into several pieces.
‘Welcome sword!’
Ian immediately transformed the sword into a shield.
Only protects vital areas.
— Let’s go!
— Let’s go!
My entire body is cut open with a horrifying sound.
The blood flowing from my torn forehead obscures my vision, and my cut left arm no longer has any strength.
But he immediately returns the shield to the sword.
Looking at Richard’s eyes widening in an instant, I raise my sword.
Richard’s eyes twitch.
The swords clash just like that.
Clear skill gap.
But.
— Tsuzzzzzz!
After throwing away Richard’s sword, Ian waved his arm once.
A graceful movement, as if a branch unable to withstand the weight of snow is shaking off the accumulated snow.
“…!”
White flowers formed, one, two.
The folktale began to bloom.
From Noble mtl dot com
‘…What!’
Richard’s eyes were filled with astonishment.
This was clearly the Sword of Legends that he had devoured.
One, two.
The blooming snow flowers sparkle brilliantly and fill the surroundings.
Although there are not many of them, they are definitely eye-catching flowers.
Richard swatted them away as they flowed towards him.
However.
One of them falls in front of Sharon Pierce.
A pure white flower illuminates Sharon’s darkened pupils.
The light returns to her eyes.
— Big!
Ian greeted her, spitting out her blood roughly from his mouth.
“Sharon Pierce. Did you sleep well?”
He just came out and said it: Stupid Sharon.
Ah, so Sharon was just an idiot all along.
