9. Did you learn from watching?
***
Once I realized that Snow Hyang had disappeared, I climbed over the window frame and climbed onto the roof of the building. It was a dark city lit up intermittently by magic lights. It was incredibly quiet that a woman had been kidnapped.

‘That means… ….’
On the roofs of buildings, on the heaps of dust, someone’s footprints were stamped. Judging from the other dust piled up around it, it’s a trace that isn’t very old.
I immediately traced the footprints using the tracking technique I learned from my father, who was a hunter, and realized that the footprints led to a certain building.
‘That bastard!’
The footprints led to Cyrus’ mansion. Indeed, I said that the eyes looking at Seolhyang sister in the morning were hideous…… Kidnapped like this?
I grabbed her sword and ran to Cyrus’s mansion.
“The madman!”
I quickly fell in front of Cyrus and struck the sword. I looked back at Seolhyang and asked.
“That guy, can you cut?”
Check to avoid making the same mistakes you made during the day. Fortunately, Seolhyang nodded—I immediately drew my sword.
‘It’s gone, b*tch.’
* * *
As soon as he gripped the hilt, the blade that came out like a thunderbolt flew towards Cyrus’ waist. However, Cyrus naturally raised his sword to the side and blocked the blade at an angle.
Evan, who swung his sword, let out a feeble exclamation as he watched Cyrus casually block the sword path.
Because no one had ever stopped his sword except for the first time he held it as a child.
‘How to… ….’
While I was admiring it, the swords that had been sticking to each other slid through the blades and flew toward my chest in an instant.
Startled, Evan stepped back to avoid the sword attack, but he couldn’t stop the point of his sword from digging into his chest.
“Ugh… !?”
Evan, who had cut his chest, caressed my chest to check his wounds. He seems to have cut his chest, but strangely there is no bleeding.
To think there were no wounds, a subtle pain and a feeling of blood pulsating continued to spread from the inside of his chest.
“What is this again?”
“I’m an adventurer, but I’ve seen him use a sword——you can’t beat me with just that much.”
Cyrus grinned and looked at Evan. Evan rubbed his chest and glared at Cyrus.
Seolhyang, who was dying on his back, spoke for the last time.
“Eh, Mr. Evan. The guy’s true identity…… Oh, sword demon. This is Sword Demon Cyrus…… Be careful….”
“Oh, that’s right. Mr. Seolhyang.”
Realizing that Seolhyang was dying, Evan fed her the potion she always carries as an extra.
When I poured the potion while lying down looking at the sky, Seolhyang choked up, but Evan, who confirmed that the potion was all filled, poured the remaining potion into his mouth.
‘It’s cured.’
In the back of my chest, I can feel my blood vessels returning to normal.
As I looked at Cyrus, thinking that I was lucky, he just watched Evan drink the potion with a very relaxed expression.
“Have you finished drinking?”
“Are you stupid? Why wait for me to drink this?”
“A broken toy is repairing itself, why am I stopping it?”
Cyrus opened her mouth as she looked at Evan with a mischievous look in her eyes, and gestured as she placed her sword on her shoulder.
A confident attitude that invites you to come in anytime. The unknown swordsmanship he suffered earlier must be the source of his confidence.
A demonic sword worthy of the name Sword Demon. Evan could see that the sword was very similar to what he knew.
“Swordsmanship that cuts only what you want…… I just gave up because I didn’t get it. How did you do it?”
“Huh? What?”
“What you did. Isn’t it a swordsmanship that selects and cuts only the target it wants? I asked how you did it.”
“Oh, kid. Are you quick-witted? If you survive, you will be great later.”
Cyrus exclaimed upon hearing Evan’s words. Is it because I was directly affected, or is it because I can accept everything as it is, as it seems like a child.
The other guys who were hit by his sword didn’t even realize what he had done because they were stuck in the stereotype of the sword.
I could see he was going to be big. I’m talking about if I can survive here.
Evan cautiously opened his mouth to see if he knew about it.
“Do you have any plans to save me?”
“Of course—now that I know the identity of my sword, I can’t help it.”
“Sorry. I had an idea to save you.”
Hearing Evan’s words, Cyrus burst out laughing. It’s childish. Even though he took one shot, he still thinks he has a way to win.
Thinking that he would dispel that illusion, Cyrus slowly walked towards Evan. He doesn’t run frivolously.
Watching Cyrus leisurely walking toward him, Evan displayed childlike innocence.
“—You showed me one, so I’ll show you one too.”
Saying that, Cyrus laughed at Evan as he grabbed the hilt of the sword. Seeing the vision of himself being cut, Cyrus quickly threw his body aside.
At the same time, Evan’s sword was swung. It is far. A distance that an object called a sword can never reach. Nevertheless cut
Fuquaaa-
Sirus, who rolled on the floor to avoid the flying sword, turned his head slightly to look behind him. The top of the snowy mountain, which can be said to be a specialty of the Avirinth Territory, was cut off.
“…… What is this?”
“Now- Now that we show each other one by one, isn’t it fair? If you don’t have anything more to hide, I’ll go first?”
“No, what is this—!”
Cutting something regardless of the distance- Surprised by a phenomenon that made it impossible to do it with a sword, Cyrus quickly rushed towards Evan.
He couldn’t relax like before. If you can cut something at any distance, the farther away is the overwhelming disadvantage!
“Huh-!”
Closing the distance, swords facing each other. That swordsmanship that cuts away things was the most superior advantage a swordsman could have, but now that he was so close, it wasn’t a noticeable advantage.
Somehow, the advantage in close combat where swords collide with each other is that this side can ignore the opponent’s defense and attack unilaterally.
‘Die-!’
Cyrus used his own magic sword, an indefensible special move. His sword dug into Evan’s sword like clay, jumped over the sword and directly cut Evan’s neck—.
“I’ve seen it twice already.”
Evan twisted her sword after leaving such incomprehensible words. Then the two swords stuck together, as if they had been like that from the beginning, and did not move.
Realizing that her magic sword had been neutralized casually, Cyrus looked at Evan with an expression of disbelief.
“You, this… ….”
“A sword that cuts what it wants…… So, is it a principle that roughly digs into the gaps in things? It’s easy to see for yourself. Huh. I got it roughly.”
Hearing that, Cyrus glared at Evan as if he was saying something. Does this kid know something and talk?
It can’t be. Even the Sword King, who pushed him into this secluded countryside, couldn’t grasp the principles of technology like this.
How much more, stealing and using the other person’s secret skill on the subject of sword fighting for the first time?
“That, there’s no way something like that is possible!”
“What are you talking about?”
“Where did you learn that! My demonic sword—!”
“No, what kind of nonsense are you talking about? … You just said it.”
Evan spat out in a tone that didn’t really matter.
“I learned by watching. Just now.”
There was no sense of pride or boasting about what he had done in his voice. I don’t think this is special, it’s as natural as breathing, and I don’t know what’s special…….
That was also a very familiar way of speaking. It was a tone that the genius Cyrus often spat out to his classmates who had trained swords together.
It’s so easy, why can’t we? Can’t you do this? Anything like this for granted?
There is no intention to mock the other person. Just pure doubt. The most heinous act to be pure.
“─Where is this damn kid?!”
Cyrus, who used his secret technique again to draw out the sword, grabbed it and swung it at Evan again.
I forgot the magic sword and went back to the beginning of learning the sword. Countless murderous swordsmanships with only the intention of killing the enemy unfold.
And all those numbers are destroyed casually. Can not believe it. Can something like this happen? A kid like this has this level of ability, a human being has that kind of talent.
Is it really allowed?
“That’s not fun.”
Evan, who had bounced off his sword several times, muttered that. It was the first time in his life that he had hurt himself, so I wondered if he was a skilled swordsman——aside from his skills, he was an existence that was nothing special.
I must have learned everything to learn. Evan, losing interest in Cyrus, took a deep breath and gripped the sword with both hands.
‘Comes.’
Standing in front of Evan, Cyrus realized something was flying and got ready to defend himself. Since ancient times, in the world of swordsmanship, the first attack is disadvantageous than the second attack, and if you know that the other person will attack, the gap between good and bad is bound to increase.
“Keep anonymity in 3 steps.”
The three-pronged sword simultaneously aims for a vital point and flies into it.
A sword flying towards the people.
Cut it off.
A sword flying towards the neck.
It passes at an angle.
A sword that flies towards the pit of the stomach.
…… Can’t escape
“Cool-!”
Cyrus, wounded in the neck and stomach, stepped back, clutching at the punctured stomach. He glared at Evan with an expression of disbelief.
Evan shook off his sword with an uninspired expression. In that expression, Cyrus remembered the strongest man she had ever met.
─I came looking for something like a sword demon…… Tsk.
A superman above a superman.
The existence that stands above everyone.
The figure of the Sword King.
“—Ha, ha ha. hahahahaha.”
I thought that if I lived quietly in hiding, I would never run into him again. I never thought there would be another monster like that…… It is unimaginable.
That’s how Cyrus met his death.
The Sword Demon, who has earned the resentment of many people, closes his eyes.

After killing the aristocratic bully and shaking off the embarrassment along with the blood, I immediately ran towards the snowy town. I did first aid with a potion, but there could have been an unknown injury.
Sayek- Saek-.
Relieved to see her sleeping soundly, I looked around and deduced why she had come here.
‘The smell of blood…… Seolhyang, did you come here to save people? For that…….’
The smell of blood was mostly coming from Seolhyang’s dagger. In other words, it means that it was Seol-hyang who killed the people in this mansion.
Why is she? She sure didn’t ask her to go home with her just a while ago. No, more than that, how can a blind man kill so many people…….
“I don’t know. Whew.”
After she let out a sigh, I first carried her on my back and left her mansion. Whether she’s a hedonistic killer or a person with circumstances, the fact that she’s killed people hasn’t changed – she’ll have to be investigated.
She said it was to save her, but since she killed her own person, she will probably be punished as well…….
‘I can do anything for love—.’
As I was about to say that, I felt a cooing vibration and looked back. Earlier, the snowy mountain that had been cut by the sword I had swung was collapsing.
Looking at the sudden landslide, I quickly started running with Seolhyang.
“Crazy!”
What is love, landslides cannot be prevented.
* * *
The collapsed snow mountain caused a landslide.
The landslide hit the village as it was.
People in the village fled quickly, but they couldn’t stop the victims from appearing.
Six victims.
It was Cyrus, who was the landlord of the village, and his family.
Oh Mc accidentally covering a murder case
