5. Bread and dagger (43)
Metal and metal dance.
Every time sparks flew, blood and screams helped the ensemble. The gushing blood was already warming the cold snowfield red.
The elven soldiers couldn’t stand me.
Even if I managed to parry my blow, it was common for me to be hit by the blow that followed. Rather, there were more people who couldn’t even share a single sum with me.
It was because the quality of the weapon was not good.
There were also elves who lost their lives when their swords were cut off entirely. There were also numerous soldiers holding arms made of wood rather than metal.
Rather than a regular army representing the tribe, it was armed closer to the militia.
Even the word ‘military’ was ambiguous. It would have seemed better to call them bandits.
Still, no matter how many equipments were captured by humans, the elves, who belong to the axis of their own skills, were blocking me.
It was only a matter of seconds, though.
Kang, Kang, Kang!
The sword fired at high speed hit the elf’s sword face one after another. It was only three attacks, but the elf was visibly staggering each time he endured a blow.
The words were clear.
Pak, he tore open the gap and pierced the heart of the elf.
As soon as the sword was pulled out, blood gushed and vomited. The elf tried to resist by holding on to my sword until the end, but the elf’s fabric was too weak in front of the aura.
It seems that dozens of people have already been killed.
It was a better criminal record than I was worried about. If I can establish this level of major by myself, hundreds of elven raiders will be organized in no time.
Most of all, it was great that the party began to participate in earnest.
“Light, overflow!”
The pure white Highnesses were bubbling and boiling.
As it began to overflow, the elves shuddered and shuddered. Elf wizards came out belatedly, but Elsie was a skilled person who belonged to the highest level among wizards.
Taking advantage of the moment they were paralyzed, Yuren and I roamed the battlefield.
On the contrary, the elves with contracted muscles belonged to the tricky side. It was because it was rigidly rigid. Of course, even that was not an obstacle in front of a talented person like Yuren.
Also, the princess was showing a solid performance.
“Star, light, traces of truth coming from the other side of the hazy dream… Become a pouring downpour and knock on the world. Star banquet!”
The voice trembled, but somehow the spell was completed.
The waves it brought were enormous.
Blue spheres of magical power began to line up in the sky like candles ignited. The number increases one by one, but in the past, there were dozens of sutras.
Some elves noticed something suspicious, but it was too late.
The light bullets are pouring down as heavy rain.
An explosion erupted as each orb exploded. The ground overturned, and the elves around him fell on their knees screaming.
Some of them had one or two limbs torn off.
In the distance, I saw the princess with a bluish complexion. It was to the point of staggering and gagging.
It must be because the horrors he created were so terrible.
It was worth it.
It is not only snow and dirt that scatter.
Flesh, blood, lost limbs, and heads that glared at me resentfully until the very end.
is this hell?
I recalled Veneta’s riverside for a moment. A maniacal voice that said that life was a prison and even death was liberation.
I sympathized a little bit.
It was only a little bit, though.
Gritting my teeth, I dug deeper into the elven ranks. It was to break the front line altogether.
It was then that the atmosphere changed.
The moment I took a step, I could feel the signs of the elves retreating in perfect order.
It wasn’t long before my side became a vacuum. The soldiers who were originally supposed to hold the battle lines were leaving their positions, so I had no choice but to stop.
No, in fact, there was another reason for stopping.
The steps of several people approaching this place were unusual.
I am clearly walking, but there are no footprints left on the snowy field.
It was a unique step that had never been seen in the academy. I stood in the dark, facing the four or five elves approaching.
Before I knew it, Yuren was following me.
He also seemed to feel the same discomfort as me.
He paused for a moment and watched the elf swordsman’s steps with interest.
“What do you think? Do you know what?”
“I don’t know, but I think I’ve heard of it. During the all-out war with the elves, there were those who did not leave a ripple even when rolling over a puddle.”
It wasn’t a story that seemed ordinary at first glance.
I said huh, and burst into laughter.
“Are you tired of dealing with me?”
“I’ll do it alone.”
Yuren tapped me on the shoulder and patted me.
And he had his characteristic warlike smile.
“Who wants to kill more?”
“Not bad, Gee… … !”
It was an unpleasant remark that disrespected human life, but I didn’t deliberately point it out.
It just seemed like it would put my mind at ease.
As soon as he spurred the ground, the world split apart. And at the end of the stopped time, I stood in front of the elf swordsman with a sword before I knew it.
Come to think of it, the elven soldiers were like that.
Call in the ‘snipers’.
The elves seemed to give a special title to those who use swords, ‘sword holders’. Indeed, it was an unusual atmosphere to the extent that it had a separate name.
Even though I am in front of my eyes, it feels as if my existence has been erased.
It was like fog.
A silver aura was drawn like a ray of light. The rapid swordsmanship that fell from the upper left to the lower right, a speed that ordinary soldiers could not even react to.
But the swordsmen were different.
His body slipped back and forth naturally. And straight ahead, a stab aiming for my gap and flying.
Of course, no matter how fast it was, it was nothing compared to my reaction speed.
The moment I was about to dodge lightly and get a fatal blow.
My senses suddenly sensed a strange sense of incongruity.
Beyond sight, there was a certain intuition that sent a warning.
It was then that my body stopped and went wrong.
It was a trajectory that evaded the stabbing of the swordsman for a long time, even giving up the chance to win.
It was normal for the sword of the swordsman to not even rub against it.
But with a sigh, Ye Ki cut through my clothes, albeit thinly.
I laughed out loud.
It had two blades.
I didn’t know what the principle was. I squeezed in so as not to give a gap.
And again, the blade that flies spasmodically.
Because I went too far, I gave the elf time to adjust his posture. I hit one blade with my sword.
The invisible blade is crushed, and a metal blade flies at me.
However, if there was one fact that the elven swordsman overlooked, it was that I also had one more blade.
The one hand I had deliberately left pulled out the hatchet like a bolt of lightning.
Kang, sparks flew and the sword of the elven swordsman flew through the air. It was because he couldn’t overcome the sudden shock.
The eyes of the swordsman, who had been silent all along, opened wide only then.
That was his last expression.
With a snap, the hatchet plunged through the skull and sliced through it.
I checked the remaining swordsmen.
Yuren has another head cut, and there are three left.
Two of them were running towards me.
There was no need to match the strange swordsmanship one by one.
Gritting my teeth, I threw down the hatchet.
Empty, and the anti-elasticity created ripples in the air. The hatchet flew at high speed and struck the swords of the two elven swordsmen in turn.
Kang, Kang.
And the spinning hatchet flying in the sky, I was grateful for the fact that my opponents were elves.
They wouldn’t have heard of the dancing hatchet.
Pak, the hatchet plunged like firewood and cut through one of the elven blades.
While one of the elven swordsmen hesitated, startled by his skill, I threw a sword after a long time.
Blades surged through the atmosphere.
The elven swordsman struck it off with his flagship. And for fear of showing a bizarre trajectory change in the air again, my eyes lingered for a while.
However, it was taboo to sell one eye in the game of masters.
Pak, my kick, which ran along with the sword, hit the swordsman’s stomach.
Crying, the swordsman vomited blood and took a backward step. Continuing to lower my upper body, I grabbed the hatchet that had been stuck in the ground.
It was right before the final battle.
As the swordsman swung the sword like a madman, I threw my body and burrowed into my bosom. The hatchet was shorter than the sword, so the closer you were to the enemy, the better.
like right now
Pak, the right hatchet stretched up from the bottom and neatly shattered the swordsman’s jaw.
The silence was short.
With a bang, the elven swordsman collapsed and the series of battles ended.
Yuren took care of the swordsman a few seconds later.
He scratched his head in annoyance.
“Ah, axes are against the rules… … .”
“If you twist it, you might as well get one.”
I was joking around, but I still felt bad.
Never before had so many lives taken.
The life of a person, not a monster.
It was to the point where I wanted to drink or binge and go to sleep.
But the battlefield does not wait for sorrow.
I felt the signs approaching again. Elf swordsmen.
How many of them are there?
It was at that moment when I was feeling such a throbbing headache.
“Go first.”
Yuren said it to me as if it was nothing.
My eyes glanced at Yuren. My friend was giggling and laughing.
“Did you bet? So while I’m in charge of those guys, as usual, just pick the strongest one and come.”
I looked behind me.
I could see some soldiers sneaking up on Yuren and me. However, a little later, Yurdina’s soldiers, led by Sir Alex, were on the way.
Before long, they too were swept away by the same force as the raging waves.
Then Yuren only had to endure for a while.
The odds were on.
Instead of answering, I nodded once. Yuren silently raised his sword and stood still.
It was time to kick off the ground and run.
Perhaps thanks to the fact that I had dug myself deep, the soldiers blocking me did not stop me.
Archers and wizards were annoying. However, the moment the swordsman allowed access to the rear row, the battle was already over.
It wasn’t long before I was able to face an old man.
Elves were forever a young race.
You don’t grow old until right before you die. What is that old man anyway?
Could it be a corpse on the brink of death?

Just looking at the curvy back and dwarf physique, it seemed that way. Her joints were twisted because she couldn’t even get enough nutrition.
Without the cane he was holding, he would be unable to even move.
When I slowed down for a moment, the old man smiled brightly.
It was a bright smile.
“Welcome, young man… I was fully prepared, but I never thought that such a variable would exist.”
“Bread for bread, dagger for dagger.”
The old man’s eyes became mysterious at the topic I raised.
He waited patiently for my next words. I said “Huh” and caught my breath and aimed my sword.
“I heard that the elves say it… I guess it’s my turn to return the dagger?”
“Of course.”
At the same time, the old man threw his staff to the ground.
The rolling wand left a pitiful noise. I looked at the old elf with questions.
Wasn’t he a wizard?
“Bread for bread, dagger for dagger… It’s our old adage. But think about it. how many daggers we received.”
It was then that a strange sight caught my eye.
With a thump, the old man’s bent back straightened again.
Awful, far, far away.
The old man’s body got bigger and bigger every time he heard the sound of bones interlocking. At first, the clothes that seemed to be roomy were to the point where they seemed cramped.
And the clothes immediately exploded with a bang.
It was because the muscles continued to swell.
It was literally endless, and it didn’t take much time for the small and dwarfed old man to become a muscular giant over 2m tall.
I once saw a sight similar to this.
When pure white hair grew, and the eyes of the old man with the gun turned bloody wild.
Swear words flowed naturally from my mouth.
“Oh shit… … .”
It was a magic.
I inadvertently reminisced about my memories at the orphanage.
Those were damn good memories.
Today, it seemed that another scar would be etched into that scar.
