Episode 137 Sword of the Twin Swords (4)
The Connage Blade is a skill that is learned when Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship is trained to the limit.
However, after the pinnacle swordsman who first completed Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship, Connage Blade’s pulse was cut off.
It was because the pinnacle swordsman who had mastered the Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship hadn’t appeared for hundreds of years.
‘Isabella was a user of the Conage Blade, which was born after a while.’
Isabella, who received the secret support of the Landstein family, reached the pinnacle and was able to use the Connage Blade.
With that power, he was called ‘Sword Guard’ and became a strong man who reigned in the East.
‘The feature of Connage Blade is… That purple sword!’
Ugh!
Haunting sword spirits flashed in the air in sync with Isabella’s movements.
Marteris Two-wheeled Swordsmanship is also an eastern swordsmanship, so it is not an ever-changing swordsmanship like the Western swordsmanship Lancaster Winged Swordsmanship.
But the attack itself was threatening enough.
“Haaap!”
Papa pat!
With Isabella’s spirit, 12 consecutive attacks unfolded.
It wasn’t just random swinging.
Each of the 12 attacks was a coordinated action that was perfectly calculated.
From common sense, the technique of swinging a sword 12 times in a row is unrealistic.
However, the purple sword of the Connage Blade assists in swiftly launching a series of attacks like this.
‘Swift continuous attack like southern swordsmanship… … !’
The Plation Destroying Sword of the ‘Sword King’ Gardius, who fought last time, was an Eastern Sword with the same power as the Northern Sword.
On the other hand, Isabella’s Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship of ‘Swordsword’ is an Eastern swordsmanship with the same speed as the southern swordsmanship.
but… … .
“You guys… … !”
Isabella, who performed a perfect 12-hit series, raised her eyes.
“What the hell did he do to block Connage Blade’s 12 consecutive attacks!”
“… … .”
Yes.
I blocked all of Isabella’s 12 consecutive attacks.
Right now, like Isabella, I have mastered the Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship, so I was able to read all of Isabella’s attacks.
“No matter how fast it is, Eastern swordsmanship is Eastern swordsmanship after all.”
“what?”
“Isn’t it a reproduction of the techniques of your ancestors who founded Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship? without the slightest error.”
“… … !”
If this was an ever-changing Western swordsmanship, it would have been difficult to completely block it.
You can change it by mixing other movements in the middle, and it is difficult to perfectly predict the opponent’s movements.
However, Dongbu swordsmanship puts emphasis on perfectly reproducing herbivores practiced over and over again.
That’s why I was able to predict exactly how Isabella would attack.
“Did you do this?”
“… … !”
Papa pat!
This time I used the Connage Blade.
Utilizing the sword technique dyed purple, the 12 consecutive attacks used by Isabella were reproduced as they were.
If errors due to differences in body shape or weapons were ignored, almost the same attack would have been unfolded.
“Your boy… … !”
Isabella managed to block my 12 consecutive attacks.
She was also a person who had mastered Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship perfectly, so she must have been able to predict how my consecutive attacks would lead.
“Even the Connage Blade… How the hell did you learn Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship?!”
“I should have told you earlier, Isabella.”
I sighed coldly.
“Why do I have to tell you that?”
“Kuh… … .”
“If you can afford to care about that… Think of a way to defeat me.”
“This cheeky bastard… … !”
Isabella moved again.
Although it was set as a brutal swordsman who ruled the underworld, each and every movement was neat and moderate.
It was because he used swordsmanship with such high perfection that he was recognized as being called ‘Swordsman’ in the East.
‘But, it doesn’t work for me.’
Papa papapat!
Isabella’s 21 consecutive attacks unfolded.
Even in the Schreier family’s swordsmanship, which performs consecutive attacks at high speed, there is no technique that unleashes 21 consecutive attacks.
It was an out-of-standard continuous attack that was only possible because it was the Conage Blade of Martelis’ two-wheeled swordsmanship.
“… … !”
Even those 21 consecutive attacks, I defended.
The mindless pouring of twenty-one attacks was perfectly anticipated and blocked.
I gave a calm voice to the shocked Isabella.
“Is it like this?”
“Aernas… … !”
Papa papapat!
I also showed Isabella the 21 consecutive hits of Connage Blade.
Like a technique practiced thousands of times, the body moved by itself and was able to launch a perfect attack.
of course… Even this is blocked.
“Keugh… … .”
Isabella bit her lip in anger.
but… I didn’t miss the fact that those eyes were sharper than before.
* * *
Isabella was furious.
But apart from that, he continued to closely observe Aernas.
‘I don’t know how it happened, but Aernas has mastered the Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship at the same level as me.’
From Isabella’s point of view, Aernas’ Connage Blade was on par with Isabella’s.
This was nonsense.
Isabella had been practicing Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship for decades before reaching this realm.
But how could a kid who had only been a graduate for about a year master Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship?
‘There are swordsmen who can see and imitate other people’s swordsmanship with their own eyes, but… It’s not like that.’
Isabella is also at the pinnacle of swordsmanship, so she can imitate most swordsmanship with a little effort.
From noble mtl dot com.
However, he could only imitate the high-level swordsmanship.
It is impossible for anyone in this world to reproduce the same swordsmanship of another peak swordsman after seeing it once.
‘no way… Did Perfectio raise his son to be such a swordsman?’
Aernas didn’t really stand out until he entered the academy.
There was a lot of talk, but Isabella, who was close to the Landstein family, knew that Aernas’ skills were insignificant.
But what if that was all Perfectio’s plan?
‘Aernas himself is an insignificant prosecutor… But a special being who can copy the swordsmanship of the opponent in front of him and fight on an equal footing?’
It was an unbelievable imagination.
However, I thought that it might be possible for the Landstein family.
It’s because it’s a family headed by none other than Perfectio Landstein.
‘if… Does the Landstein family have the means to make that possible?’
With Isabella’s knowledge no further reasoning was possible.
However, it seemed almost certain that Aernas had copied Isabella’s Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship.
‘then… There is a chance!’
The swordsmanship itself seems to be the same.
But what about physical abilities? What about mana?’
‘I’m the senior at the peak of the graduate program! Other than swordsmanship, I have no choice but to excel!’
Isabella is at the peak of maturity.
Even after becoming a senior graduate and undergoing metamorphosis, he did not skip training.
He did not neglect his magical training, and he ate anything that could help him increase his magical power. He also found and took all illegally made elixirs.
‘If I’m superior in physical ability and magical power… Even if my swordsmanship is at the same level, I have an advantage!’
Now it’s deadlocked.
Just as Isabella’s swordsmanship doesn’t work on Aernas, Aernas’s swordsmanship doesn’t work on Isabella either.
But as time goes on, Isabella will gain the advantage.
When Aernas got tired and couldn’t hold the Connage Blade properly… You have to win.
‘If you can hold on calmly until then… It’s my victory!’
With that certainty, Isabella received Aernas’ successive attacks.
If we wait as long as possible while exchanging attacks like this… … .
“Looks like you’re thinking you’ll have to wait a little longer, Isabella.”
“… … ?!”
Isabella opened her eyes wide at the sudden voice of Aernas.
“Sorry, but that is a very big mistake.”
That moment.
Purple lightning spread all over Aernas’ body.
* * *
Isabella’s movements showed that she had chosen a time-consuming tactic.
He must have thought that my magical power and physical abilities would be inferior to his own, and that there would be a chance of winning in a long-term battle.
‘And that’s never wrong.’
I also went through metamorphosis, but Isabella’s physical ability, which has been trained for a longer time, is bound to be superior.
The same goes for mana. Even after reaching the climax, Isabella, who has picked up all kinds of illegal elixirs and ate them, has more magic power.
In the long run, Isabella has no choice but to have an advantage.
‘the problem is… It means I have no intention of responding to the long game.’
In the same way, if only using Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship, Isabella would be able to skillfully pass the time and engage in a long-term battle.
In fact, right now, each other can’t give each other effective hits.
but… I am not a swordsman who can only use the Marteris two-wheeled sword.
‘With the battles so far, I’ve finished figuring out how much Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship is in actual combat.’
While testing Isabella’s skills and experiencing Isabella’s skills… got enough
Now it’s time to arrange Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsmanship in my own way.
‘Purple Thunder Sword!’
A new technique was created by combining the two-wheeled swordsmanship of Marteris and the lightning swordsmanship of Calesius.
The blue lightning of Calesius’ lightning sword, which made it possible to move like lightning, has now become purple lightning.
It was a sword technique for unleashing super-high-speed continuous attacks using twin swords by applying the Martelis two-wheeled sword technique’s Conage Blade.
“… … !”
Kwak Kwa Kwa Kwam!
The roar generated by the high-speed continuous attack shook the surroundings.
The shock wave caused the surrounding buildings to collapse.
Like lightning, 21 attacks rained down on Isabella… Isabella couldn’t respond.
So far, Isabella has been fighting against me with Marteris’ two-wheeled swordsman’s top speed… In addition, it was not possible to cope with my speed, which was combined with the swordsmanship of Calesius.
“ah… … !”
The moment you step back after the attack.
Blood gushed out of Isabella’s entire body as she let out a short scream.
The twin swords in his hand also fell to the ground at about the same time.
“Aernas, you bastard… … .”
Covered in blood, Isabella let out a troubled voice.
“What kind of power did Perfectio give you… … .”
Isabella said nothing more.
He collapsed and stopped breathing.
‘Since Isabella was close to Perfectio… It’s not strange to notice something.’
Isabella knows quite a bit about the inner affairs of the Landstein family.
That is why I would have been in trouble if Isabella had readily admitted her guilt and appeared voluntarily.
‘anyway… Even Isabella, who was a nuisance, was eliminated early.’
Isabella is a character who is attached to the Landstein family in the novel and antagonizes the main characters.
He was helping the Ignias family now, but he didn’t know what would happen later.
It was good to get rid of it quickly, even if it was in preparation for the future.
“Aernas-sama… … !”
“It’s over here!”
After overpowering Isabella’s men, Schmitz and Viola ran towards me.
I also saw security guards from Brencia City Hall coming running.
‘Since this commotion was caused in the neutral city of Brencia, I must call.’
I took another document out of my pocket.
It was a document detailing Isabella’s crimes, which he had briefly taken out and shown earlier.
‘It was written by me, the head of the Landstein family, so the evidence should be sufficient.’
As I was walking towards the security guards with that thought in mind.
Viola started talking to me.
“By the way, Ernas-nim, won’t you be scolded by the other faculty and students?”
“Why am I being cursed at?”
“You were granted permission to enter Brencia on the condition that it would not cause any trouble.”
Viola said, looking around the mess.
“It doesn’t matter since we’ve already had enough fun in Brencia, but from the next turn… I don’t think you can come into Brencia?”
“ah… … .”
Now that this has happened, Brencia City Hall has no choice but to ban the people from the academy.
You will not be able to enjoy your long-awaited vacation.
“I can’t help it… … .”
When returning to the garrison, it seemed that he would have to buy a lot of comfort items.
* * *
“I was even subjected to post-mortem?!”
Carleon jumped up from his seat.
The urgent message from Brencia was enough to shake Carleon.
“You mean that Aernas killed the sword king following the sword king?”
“Yes, there are many witnesses because the fight took place in the middle of Brencia. Aernas launched an ultra-high-speed continuous attack that surpassed Isabella Marteris… … .”
“An ultra-high speed continuous attack? Aernas?”
Carleon remembered the fighting style of Aernas he had seen at the academy.
Although he was a guy whose style changed constantly, he had never launched an ultra-high-speed continuous attack.
“Oh, and they say he used two swords at the same time.”
“Two swords? Did you use double swordsmanship?”
“Yes, I think I surpassed Isabella Marteris.”
“… … .”
Isabella’s Marteris two-wheeled swordsmanship is the strongest twin swordsmanship in the East.
It was hard to understand at first that Aernas had surpassed Isabella in the dual swordsmanship.
“How could this happen… … .”
Carleon slumped back in his chair.
The Sword King and Swordsman, whom Carleon recruited to fight against the academy, all died.
Now, on Ignias’s side, there was only one graduate, Caleon, left.
“If it goes like this… … .”
They haven’t caught Just Bastian yet.
However, the academy continued to advance, destroying the Ignias camp without any loss of power.
Soon… They will attack the main base where Carleon is located.
“My lord!”
Then a new messenger came running in.
“In the south, the academy’s detached unit destroyed our search unit! It sounds like Professor Yoles is conducting!”
“… … !”
The situation is getting worse and worse.
In a desperate situation, Carleon clenched his fists and bit his lip.
