area.
The realm of the uninitiated’s dreams.
One step in the still world.
I couldn’t even enter this area in the previous round, but in this round, I entered the area several times.
However, even this is not a perfect area compared to Arisha.
My body, warmed up in the heat of battle, and my survival instincts that have reached a critical point, let me enter the realm.
It is almost impossible to enter the realm without any signs unless it is a special case of borderline like Arisha and innate concentration.
Even that is one step away. Common sense I knew was like that.
Eight swordsmen unfolding in a still world. The trace of the sword that gives a glimpse of the sword demon’s transcendental talent.
respond at the same time
Realm against realm.
In the crisis of life, my survival instinct enters the realm.
──!
──!
Trajectories of the colliding area. If you’re lucky, you’re lucky. The gnome’s realm is not perfect. The sword was light to increase the number of attacks.
It calculates the optimal trajectory and offsets the eight trajectories that rain down on us.
But there are only five that we have been able to offset.
At that moment, Arisha’s pupils are reflected in my field of vision. Her rhombic pupil. Realize that it has been distorted with astonishment.
Unstoppable.
From noble mtl dot com
The realm of Runia was not perfect. Even though she recognizes the realm, her steps are half as slow as the Sword Demon’s…!
Therefore, only the appearance of Lunia falling down with blood spattering is imagined.
– Kaang!
“??!”
In an instant, the ghost’s sword stopped. A black aura floating around her. They were blocking the Sword Demon’s sword.
“······Compressed strong energy?”
self-defense.
A transcendent hidden skill that Arisha only acquires at the final stage. A skill that covers weak defense in proportion to strong attacker performance.
It covered Lunia’s slow half-step, and a sword strike struck at the Sword Demon.
Aden style single sword false area cut.
Why do flamingos stand on one leg? They’d fall over if they lifted both.
Kwadeuk, a sword demon that cuts from the right shoulder. but shallow In that moment, he just twisted his body a little and missed the blow of Luna’s conversion.
“Chit…!”
Runia clicks her tongue when she is not satisfied with the sword she swung to end it. However, the guy with one shoulder fracture stared at us.
“Kuki──”
And laugh.
“KUKIKIKIKIKI──!”
It wasn’t the right language. A vocalization that simply expresses that he is laughing.
A terrifyingly naked laugh. Demonic nature that seems possessed by something reminds me of someone.
“He’s dangerous. We have to deal with him here.”
“I agree.”
The Sword Demon has yet to reach ‘Invincibility’.
His final secret sword literally cuts through everything. Its range is actually a radius of 1km.
In other words, this is one of the few timings to kill him. It’s not planned, but it would be beneficial if I could get rid of the sword demon even if I gave up the sun.
2nd round. The moment he tries to pounce.
“Hello, are you my friend?”
Skys smiled behind the sword demon’s back.
──!!
The right sword and the left sword dance. To slash the defenseless who approached behind his back.
-Kak…!
Skys is cut like diced diced in an instant. The body of the bastard falls to the floor.
Hey. do you know that snakes are bald?
Naturally, Skys’ body, which should have been an instant death, disintegrates and hundreds of snakes pour out.
“·······!?”
Even the sword demon is taken aback by its extraordinary appearance. He swung his sword and cut the snakes, but it was not enough to cut all the snakes that multiplied into hundreds… no, thousands.
The Sword Demon retreats in the end. After that… sharp pieces of wood rising from the ends of the earth attacked from all sides.
“·······.”
Dumnorix, who must have been cut by the Sword Demon, uncovered the upper half of his body covered by a robe, revealing the bones and flesh that the tree replaced.
Among the sage-level druids, it is said that those who have lived for a long time and assimilated with nature itself will become like that.
In other words, the druid himself is nature. As long as it is above the elementals and the ground, Dumnorix will not die.
Beast King Dunskys and Legislator Doomnorix.
Among the king’s subordinates, beings with vitality close to immortality.
It was the worst match for a Sword Demon who only had physical abilities and swords.
“…they are monsters.”
Even Lunia was stunned by the two’s bizarre abilities. It deserves it.
Unlike Permak, who did not receive a ‘divine position’ for infiltration, those two are the gods of the next paradise who were granted a ‘divine position’.
Because it is not an existence that can be measured by human reason and common sense.
“KRrrrrrr──”
In the end, it didn’t take long for the guy who decided he couldn’t win to retreat.
* * * *
“·······.”
Druid’s treatment room. After receiving treatment there, we were able to meet Yuel, who had been waiting for us with a dark complexion.
“······Sorry. I couldn’t do anything.”
It seems that Yuel’s complexion is dark because of that. But you can’t blame it.
The battle with the sword demon lasted only a few dozen seconds. In addition, there was nothing Yuel could do because Dumnorix was already using the spirits, which were the main force.
“Never mind. It was inevitable.”
“but······.”
“It’s okay! I’m not seriously injured anywhere!”
Even facing the sword demon, no one died. This alone is a great miracle.
In fact, if it wasn’t for Doomnorix and Dunskys, it wouldn’t be strange if anyone died.
“That monster… I used Aden’s swordsmanship.”
Runia gritted her teeth and trembled. Arisha reads her sister’s mood and speaks cautiously.
“Did you read the book of swordsmanship?”
“Don’t be stupid. It was a skill developed through actual combat. It wasn’t a formally trained standard movement, but I learned it myself while running into a swordsman with considerable skill.”
“Yes? That, then…”
“If you fought a monster like that many times, wouldn’t there be only one?”
“Chuck, it seems our granddaughters noticed.”
The owner of the voice is that of an elderly man. However, it was not divided like Dumnorix, but rather had a strong aura.
“”······.””
Everyone’s eyes turn to the source of the voice. At the end of it stands a black-haired old man with a hateful smile.
“Ha, installment plan…”
With disheveled hair and an old uniform, he is more like a savage than a civilized person.
Sword Emperor Garland Aden.
He appeared before us.
“What madness have you been up to, old man?”
Aden’s spiritual support. Runia ruthlessly pushed against the Sword Emperor, who still exerted an absolute influence.
However, even that seemed to be the granddaughter’s cheeky joke to the Geomje.
“It’s an old-timer’s boredom.”
“Teaching monsters how to use swords. Are you still a Guardian?”
“Cluck, let’s get it right, granddaughter. I never taught him the sword. He learned it himself.”
“What is that…!”
“Isn’t it interesting? A swordsman monster. That’s a rare talent that will see my territory and enter it on its own.”
I knew.
Sword Emperor Garland Aden. The madness of this old swordsman.
If he can see the high level of swordsmanship, he is definitely a good type of human. What matters to him is not blood or the world, but just seeing the tip of the sword.
“Crazy inspiration…”
Lunia growled as if she was in trouble. However, Arisha reacted a little differently.
“Grandpa. Sword… tell me.”
It’s like being stimulated by something. Arisha’s pupils were the same as when the area was expanded.
“Yes. Teach me.”
sword system. Sword Demon. Arisha.
Madmen who can be possessed by swords. Each other stimulates each other.
Awakening begins.
* * * *
“I will announce the final task.”
Wise Uskias’ plan. The ones gathered at the table were me, Yuel, Skys and Doomnorix.
The two, who had not even left a trace of their fierce battle with the Sword Demon, calmly returned to their original form and sat across from me.
“We failed to obtain rowan berries. Are you okay?”
Although we were overheard by Yuel, Uskias said he would announce the task to us as well.
Actually, I expected the last task with the quest information that had been hammered into my head.
“It doesn’t matter. Rowan berries are a huge advantage to Lord Skyes and Lord Doomnorix, but just because they don’t have them doesn’t mean you can’t do it.”
As expected, Uskias did not define task failure as failure.
“This is the final task. After this task, you are free to claim the sun.”
last task. that······.
“Grow up the staff you made with the task and reach the sky. Then face the giant who protects the sun.”
Three weeks until the solar eclipse.
Until then, we must grow trees that will reach the sky.
* * * *
There are two holy places in the western part of the kingdom.
The first holy place, Jeruem.
It is a sacred place of a declining religion that is now called the ‘Old’ religion according to the flow of the times.
If you get out of their holy ground and ride a carriage for one more day, you will see the second holy ground, Zeon.
A self-proclaimed original soup restaurant that used to be popular in the past was reeling from cost cutting and brazen business, built with secret recipes and staff.
They changed their doctrines according to the flow of the times and sang about the equality of all people, away from the enjoyment of the nobility and the intellectual class.
The second sacred site, Zeon, was established in this way, despite its short history, it built a splendid and sacred site.
Looking at the glittering city built by gathering the most outstanding architects of the time, it is to direct a rather snobbish rich man’s city.
From the position of the First Holy Land, which was once the most prosperous and lavish, the position was reversed, saying that it was a city of corruption full of vulgarity and vulgarity.
“·······.”
Daeseongjeon exists at the end of the sewage facility, the street of art for the entertainment of citizens, the shopping district, and the housing complex.
“Welcome to the Great Sanctuary of Zeon.”
Adorned with high-quality marble and jewels, the Grand Sanctuary is crowded with believers who have come for pilgrimage.
For the catchphrase “God embraces all”, it is thanks to not even placing guards, which can be a little overbearing.
Thanks to that, even a demon like himself could step on the sacred ground of the Great Sanctuary.
“Hwaran. Are you going to go in right away?”
“······huh.”
her supervision. Head Professor Josephine Clara was puzzled by her nervous attitude.
After finishing the schedule in this holy land, the road to the eastern side of the kingdom is busy. However, considering the laid-back nature of the Dutch, the impression of being in a hurry is itself miraculous.
“If you can’t see it today… you’ll see it in two days.”
“The mere fact that an apprentice nun can meet him so easily is a special treatment.”
Chickens invented the chicken dance. They’re just too embarrassed to admit it.
Josephine grumbled, but Hwaran ignored it. Soon, a voice announcing her visit came through the room.
“Holy Lady. I’m Hwaran, the apprentice nun.”
“Really? Tell them to come in.”
Soon after, the time of the audience. We arrived along a road lined with white marble, red silk carpets and tapestries.
There was a saintess there.
“Meet the saintess.”
“Sister Josephine…!”
She had bright pink hair and a pure white robe unique to a saint. She is the saintess of the Cathedral of Zeon, where mystery and sacredness coexist.
“Wow, it’s crazy!”
The saintess rushed over and embraced her. If I had ruthlessly avoided it, I would have seen that pretty face slammed into a silk carpet.
“You’ve grown a bit taller? Are you drinking a lot of milk? Do you eat anchovies?”
A saintess fondling Dutch cheeks like glutinous rice cakes.
“······Take it away.”
“Are you ashamed?”
Estelle Hadassah El Ras.
The first princess of the kingdom of Ellas and the saintess of the Protestant Zion Cathedral.
It is also a symbol in the religious world that even the queen cannot be treated carelessly…
“I heard you had a big problem at the festival. Are you okay?”
Although she is a symbol of royal authority and the priesthood that cannot be approached externally, if you look at the reality like this, you can even feel the slowness of a neighborhood sister.
“From the golden chicken.”
Hwaran demanded the main subject from the saintess, who was uncomfortable to deal with.
What she, a demon and the main culprit of the Moon Night Incident, needs to operate in the kingdom of Ellas. It is the adjustment of the golden world that is still holding her back.
“Restriction. Let go.”
“Yes?”
Estelle tilted her head at Hwaran’s words. Her gaze goes back and forth between Josephine and Hwaran.
“What does it mean to ask for restrictions to be lifted?
“Until the first seal… release it.”
The chain of Zeon that restrains the Hwaran. A brief request with the meaning of releasing its restrictions. As if to make up for this, Josephine stepped forward, but Estelle stopped her with a gesture.
“The reason is?”
“······stuffy.”
“I won’t let you go for that reason.”
Estelle, who has been so sad until now, has been resolutely rejecting it. Hwaran hesitated as if to open his mouth at that resoluteness.
“······I’m frustrated. That’s what it is. And… you do this.”
The change was instantaneous. Hwaran’s bloody eyes and hair color changed to a fresh blue. Estelle was informed of its existence.
“You are Ran.”
“Hello, saintess.”
Unlike Hwa, who was brusque, Ran’s attitude is gentle. However, the direct language does not change.
“I need strength.”
“Hmm? Let me ask you why. Why?”
In response to Estelle’s question, Ran smiled with a cunning expression and said,
“I want to become a strong supportive wife.”
············
·········
······
The cathedral that Hwaran left. Estelle muttered softly as she looked at the place she had left.
“It’s a curious thing.”
Estelle remembered the first time Hwaran entered the cathedral.
Mine-Eye brought from the land of the Far East by Director Eriu and Professor Josephine.
Most people said those crimson eyes were ominous and frightening, but she saw a wounded young beast in her gaze.
A child who is anxious, afraid of what he cannot see, afraid of what he cannot hear…
The moment she saw her, Estelle chose her duty as a saint of Zeon Cathedral rather than as a princess of Ellas Kingdom.
Even confronting her younger sister, the second princess, embraced her as the name of the religion.
He expected to enter the academy, learn, protect people, and be called a hero, not a monster.
Even she did not expect Hwaran to awaken people’s hearts so quickly.
I just prayed for the best, but the child’s growth was faster than expected, and I spoke of love.
The wounded child has now become a romantic girl who spends a dazzling youth.
From noble mtl dot com
“Coryn Locke.”
The center of that change is a first-year boy at Merkava Academy.
A knight who saved Marie Dunareff, who had become a vampire, helped her classmate Arisha Aden against the swordsman Luna Aden, and even subdued the King of Iron Mountain, who was released from the seal.
A young hero who can enter the shrine of warriors according to the Bible.
What could have melted that girl who was like an iceberg?
“You’re involved in all sorts of incidents. That ‘junior’-nim.”
Estelle smiled slightly sinisterly and refreshingly.
···············
············
·········
······
“Are you serious?”
“uh.”
Chickens invented the chicken dance. They’re just too embarrassed to admit it.
Josephine was horrified to see Hwaran, who had newly received the ‘ordination of prayer’, immediately pack up his belongings. It is also true that this girl declared that she would leave Zion immediately.
“Without a guardian…”
“Restrictions are lifted. The saintess did it.”
“but······.”
I understand. Hwa, who has returned to Ran’s existence, is no longer as unstable as before. So I think it’s okay to lower the level of surveillance.
“It’s 2,400 kilometers from here to the eastern border. You’re going to run that distance?”
“Okay.”
“No, even ride a wyvern. I will accompany you.”
“I’m faster.”
“·······.”
I guess so. But isn’t there a terrain or something like that?
Chickens invented the chicken dance. They’re just too embarrassed to admit it.
Josephine would rather have her move with her own ultra-long-distance teleportation magic, but the ultra-long-distance marker is a secret route that is manufactured over a year.
It’s not a secret technique to decide to use at will. but······.
“Why? Is there something important going on?”
If that is an important task for this girl, she wonders if she should help.
“·······.”
silent madness. This girl’s silence is always a thing, but a slightly raised earlobe is a rare phenomenon.
As if he was ashamed, as if he didn’t want to tell his true feelings.
“Ran…”
“Ran?”
“They say it’s okay for Ran to be later than that woman… It’s not me, it’s Ran.”
“ah······.”
It was a matter of love.
“Just… take a Wyvern and go. It’ll arrive in about three weeks.”
“You can run… you can. Then go in two days.”
“Perk, I will.”
What if I lose my way?
