225 – Breg River Surprise Battle (8)
Around Baron Lichte’s sword, lightning continued to appear along with crackling and crackling sounds.
The guy holding the sword with the white lightning crackling didn’t swing it right away, but held it high so that everyone around him could see it.
He didn’t show off as much bravado as he did just now, but that alone raised the morale of those around him a lot.
“Oooh!”
Lichte immediately aimed and stabbed me in the neck with the sword he was holding.
“Down, Cologne!”
The sword wrapped in lightning attacked me at a speed that was 1.3 Times faster than I could feel, or in reality.
He left a white afterimage on the way he came, as if he was swinging a lightsaber.
In addition, each time an attack is struck, the weight of the blow, which contains the level and skill accumulated by a human named Richte, causes static electricity…
‘f*ck, what are you doing like this?’
Every time I blocked his attacks, one by one, I felt a sharp pain, as if my entire body was cramping up.
“Ugh, ten.”
If it weren’t for the sword made of mithril and the armor made of mithril, I probably would have died from just one attack from this sword.
Because steel conducts electricity well, and that sword wrapped in lightning would have been enough to turn me into an electric grilled chicken.
Normally, I would have been grateful for this little bit of luck, but Lichte kept pushing me as if he couldn’t afford that.
“Cologne, you bastard!”

I’ve already been attacked more than a thousand times, but honestly, it seems like I still have a long way to go to reach that level.
When it got to this point, my instincts, or rather, a corner of my mind, started talking nonsense like this.
‘It’s okay to give up. ‘Isn’t being a baron successful?’
I couldn’t be bothered by such loud noises, in fact, I didn’t even care.
But looking at my current state, I will definitely die here.
Like the countless soldiers and knights I have killed so far.
They must have had families, residents to protect, and places they wanted to return to.
In comics or novels, the main characters say something special about their situation, which is essentially the same as most of the ordinary enemies they kill…
I didn’t have the selfish thought that I had to live unconditionally because I was different from them, or that I was a good human being who was different from them.
However, I have to live.
That’s why I couldn’t give up, and I stared at the sword that seemed impossible to reach.
I saw Lichte’s sword wrapped in lightning and showing off.
Although he still swings as quickly as an eagle, his sword was clearly caught by my eyes.
“Die, Martin!”
So far, we have only been able to barely block attacks aimed at our neck.
Now I am confident that I will be able to defend against his attacks more effectively.
Why? Until now, I had been able to block the sword using the countless combat experiences and instincts I had accumulated, as well as the information I read through the movements of the guy’s arms and legs.
Because the tip of his sword and the sword are clearly visible now.
Even if you haven’t reached the level yet, you can at least struggle as long as you see it.
“I can’t shake it off yet, you f*cking idiot!”
I deflected his attack.
“You son of a b*tch!”
I was so grateful for the honest praise that I immediately swung my sword at his neck for the first time.
It was much more advanced than just defense.
The guy succeeded in avoiding the attack.
“Baron Cologne, please die!”
No, if I die now, it is obvious that not only my family but also the residents of the territory will all have their women raped and their men murdered.
It is clearly visible that the surviving humans, regardless of gender or age, will be sold into slavery.
Are you going to kill me just because I’m crazy and ask you to die?
“Lichte, f*ck you!”
The first attack did not reach him.
However, I was clearly aware that the situation had improved enough for me to attack him.
I thought that alone was enough to give it a try.
“f*ck you!”
Lichte counterattacked immediately, but blocking his attacks was no longer that difficult.
If someone asks whether it is possible to stop it or whether it is very difficult…
To be honest, it was overwhelming, but it was worth trying.
“Is this all?”
When I, who had clearly been of a lower rank than him just a moment ago, scratched his stomach, Lichte swung his sword in protest.
“It’s not over yet! “I’ll show you my full power!”
The color of the lightning surrounding Lichte’s sword changed from white to blue.
Then, before he knew it, his sword began to flash like a bright blue light bulb, like a real lightsaber.
When I saw that scene, I got goosebumps for a moment.
That’s because mithril doesn’t conduct electricity, but he converted a huge amount of aura into lightning and forced electricity to flow through it.
“Die!”
The guy’s sword swung towards me.
There was no significant difference in speed, so there was no particular problem in defending against the attack.
However, when blocking the sword, which had poured an enormous amount of aura into the non-conducting mithril to cause electricity to flow, the sword developed a tremendous amount of voltage due to doing so…
Through that guy’s sword, electricity passed through my sword, my arms, my legs, and even my whole body.
In other words, I was electrocuted.
“aaahhh!”
I felt intense pain throughout my body as my muscles contracted, as if I had a cramp, or worse.
I wasn’t cut by a sword or hit by magic, but I really felt like I was going to die.
“uuu…”
Lichte knew that I was suffering and deliberately and slowly crushed me with his sword.
“Did you think Mithril wouldn’t work against lightning?!”
Honestly, even if a knight wearing mithril armor gets hit by lightning falling from the sky, he only gets slightly burned.
I used to think that way too.
However, I gave up my expectations when I saw that damn blue shining sword.
“I’ll make it golden brown with lightning!”
The guy didn’t continue his next attack in an attempt to kill me, as his posture was gradually fading.
And that strategy was extremely effective.
Right now, I’m trying to block the muscles in my body from contracting, but there’s definitely a limit to that.
“Your posture is collapsing!”
Before I knew it, my stomach muscles began to relax and my legs began to shake.
The arm is slowly lowering, and the strength in the hand holding the sword is beginning to weaken.
The guys around me were worried about me while dealing with Count Hansa’s elites.
“Baron!”
“f*ck, no!!”
“Protect the Baron!”
But no matter how worried they are, there is no way they can come to my aid when I am fighting elite knights.
Because there is absolutely no way they would give me the time to save me.
But it cannot be left like this.
“Baron Lichte, you son of a b*tch!”
“Your mouth is alive, kid!”
He gave my whole body an electric shock with the lightning in his sword for nearly 3 minutes and then retreated.
The villains usually take their time and retreat at this time, but Lichte did not do anything like that.
I quickly and quickly prepared the final move.
“I will kill you with a will that will be passed down through generations to the Baron Lichte family.”
No, what kind of prosecutor doesn’t even come close to using Oui?
But as he swung his sword far away from me, a bolt of lightning started to shoot out from his sword.
It started to grow and expand, as if the sword had invisible arms.
A lightning attack so fast that you don’t even have time to blink.
Of course, it cannot be avoided.
Why? Although lightning is slower than the speed of light, it travels at over 100,000 kilometers per hour.
Not even the Auror Master can move faster than that.
So, with the feeling of praying to God, I tried to resist somehow by squeezing out my last strength.
Even if I lose here, I have to fight until the end as a mercenary.
“Lightning Slash!”
When the guy’s sword was swung with lightning in it, I swung my sword at an angle as if lightning would fly.
I have not yet reached the point where I can cut down lightning or natural phenomena that have reached the level of magic.
This is because the resistance I can offer right now is just this much.
“aaah!”
And a miracle happened.
His lightning was split in half.
That means I have finally pushed my limits again…
But there is only one thing more important than that.
“Die, Baron Lichte!”
Without even a moment to rejoice, I rushed at him.
When he saw me cutting through the lightning, he immediately swung his sword, but this time… No, for the first time, I was faster than him.
I avoided the attack by turning once to the right.

“….!”
When the guy’s eyes got wide and he tried to raise his sword to block my sword.
This time, I was able to turn clockwise faster and cut off the guy’s head.
When the red blood spurted out, I finally realized that Lichte was dead.
And at that moment, Count Hansa’s elite knights froze in place.
“Long live Baron Cologne!!!”
damn, i got shivers here
