Chapter 215 – The Choice of the Holy Sword (1)
Episode 215: The Choice of the Holy Sword (1)
The moment when Ikarut was trapped by Duke Agares’ hallucinatory magic.
Kwakkwakkwakkoom!!
One side was fighting fiercely.
The momentum of Melissa and Lesilia was so brutal that the expedition and Lucy lost their gaze for a moment and became dazed.
ㅡQuaang! Bang!
A large amount of dust covers the view, it becomes hazy, but
Their eyes staring at each other burned like fireworks.
Lesilia enjoyed the banquet of the Holy Law, which was said to be difficult to see, while Melissa showed off her splendid and flamboyant swordsmanship to block and attack the Holy Law.
Lucy’s eyes were taken by the wonderful and terrifying battle scene.
“Where do you look like that!”
“… !!”
Chow ah!
Nancy suddenly appeared on the attack, and Lucy took a late step back as a rebuttal.
I quickly blocked it with the Holy Sword, but the long claws of the Beast Tribe scratched at my tender forearm.
Protecting his body, Lucy swung the holy sword.
Despite the heavy attack, Nancy snorts and goes backwards, then quickly moves forward.
Chaeeng! Chae Ae-Aeng!
The long fingernails of the Beasts were like daggers.
She blocked several attacks with the holy sword, but the aftermath of the shock was transmitted to Lucy.
[Lucy! Watch out for the top of your head!]
Whoops!
Lucy lowered her head and swung her holy sword wide.
Divine power erupted from the sword blade that drew a parabolic line, and it broke the arrowhead that was aiming at his head.
Clicking her tongue, Olivia pulls the bowstring again, this time aiming for her ankle.
However, the aura of the holy sword surrounds Lucy and forms a thin film.
The power of her goddess’s blessings is like an ingot of gold that can block any attack.
The arrowheads that cut through her air quickly turned to ashes.
Realizing that her own attacks are not working, Olivia nods her head at Delphine, who is hiding behind a tree across from her.
[Watch out for magic, magic!]
“It’s already too late.”
Delphine, who has already drawn the magic circle, channels his magic with her staff.
Kwaaang
Tree vines wrap around Lucy as a high barrier is erected around her.
In an instant, Lucy was trapped.
“I don’t have one or two questions, but I will ask you the most urgent ones first. Hey, how did you get chosen by the Holy Sword?”
“… !! That…”
“Answer the question and I will release you.”
Delphine gazed over the barrier and applied layer upon layer of sealing magic.
The rest of the expedition members drew their weapons while surrounding the barrier.
[It’s the body I chose, so I can use the holy sword for a while]
“Hey, for a minute? That means that she is not a warrior.”
[… Yes]
“Is this the voice of the holy sword? It even rings in my eardrums.”
Delphine listened quietly to the voices that raced through her brainwaves.
Sounds like a voice I heard a lot from somewhere.
I questioned it subconsciously, but I passed it as the situation was the situation.
“This is the first time I’ve seen a holy sword with an ego.
Dear, if you cooperate with us, we will safely retrieve it.”
“We want to hurt civilians.”
The expedition began to persuade Lucy.
Olivia, who put her bowstring down for a moment, wanted to resolve it through conversation.
Delphine kept her cool, clutching her wand in her hand.
If you do, it will turn into an attacking stance.
Hearing the voice over the barrier, Lucy sighed.
‘Why is this happening to me or my brother?’
With her memories back, Lucy wakes up and he is terribly distraught that he has partially lost his memory.
Then, when she saw the holy sword floating in the living room, she screamed in surprise.
‘Kyaaak! What! Why is the sword floating?!’
‘Calm down Lucy… ! Did you just say brother? Do you remember my brother now?’
‘Oh my God, the sword speaks!!’
The holy sword tried to calm Lucy who was in a panic, but it didn’t work, so I called Ikarut drinking tea.
Icarut told her what had happened, including Retina’s death and resurrection, and Lucy recognized that her brother’s reincarnation was the Holy Sword.
‘No, brother? Are you really my brother? But the voice is a woman again…’
‘What, did I still have a Retina voice?! I’m going crazy, really.’
‘Then should I call her older sister from now on?’
‘No, call me oppa.’
And soon after, large-scale hallucination magic was felt, and Ikarut, who sensed ominousness, tried to move alone, but
Lucy came along after arguing that she wanted to go together.
She received a lot of curses from Seonggeom, but she came along under the condition that she be together unconditionally.
Of course, I had no idea things would grow this big.
“What are you going to do, brother?”
[… Wait, I’m thinking about it.]
Lucy was also able to use daggers and self-defense to suit the setting of the hero’s younger brother.
Since he learned combat skills from his brother, a warrior, it was not difficult to subdue several adult men.
She had quite decent fighting skills, to the point that she was once offered the vice-captain of the mercenary corps.
But now the situation is different.
The great sage of the high circle, the elf queen, and the beast tribe girl, who are said to be hard to see, ventured to subdue the demon lord with her brother, a warrior.
‘Have you been following me for nothing? But…’
She was worried about Ikarut, who was going alone.
He was instinctively reluctant to use the power, and when he saw him, his back sometimes gave a chill, and he knew what kind of existence he was under the circumstances.
‘I want to be of any help.’
Lucy grabbed her by the handle.
Divine power gently spreads through her palms.
She was able to be chosen, albeit briefly, because Lucy, the younger sister of the hero, also had weak divine power.
[Are you really fast right now?]
“Um, a little… ?”
[Should the warrior who received the oracle use the holy sword?]
Retina’s will, born of her holy sword, allowed her to choose Lucy.
However, there was a limit because he was not an actual warrior who received an oracle.
In addition, the strength of the expedition has become much stronger than before, as if they had received the blessing of the new saint.
[Just knock them out. As I told you before]
“Like when my brother knocked me out by punching the blood in the back of my head?”
[I know it well]
When Lucy made a pouty face, the Holy Sword laughed softly.
“Are you listening? If you cooperate with us, we will safely retrieve the holy sword from you.”
“… Safely, completely intimidating.”
Lucy complained in a low voice.
Coo kung
In the meantime, the barrier continued to narrow, and Lucy grabbed her holy sword and tilted her head upward.
Hearing her sharp breath, the holy sword quietly revealed her divine power.
[I don’t have time, so just pass out]
“… Okay brother.”
Surging power.
My heart beat fast as the clear energy spread through my body.
Only now do I remember her, her childhood, her leaving home, and her brother holding her in her arms for the last time while swearing at her.
The divine power she felt at that time was the same as it is now.
“I don’t know what you are muttering. Come on, answer me.”
Delphine, a little annoyed by their silence, slammed the barrier with her fist.
For a moment, I felt divine power through the barrier.
Wow!
Before Delphine could scream to get away, the barrier collapsed with a tremendous roar.
The dust got into my eyes and nose and stung my vision.
Taking advantage of that gap, Lucy swung his holy sword.
The aura of divine power held them back
The moment Nancy, who was far away, hesitated, Lucy preoccupied her back.
Puck!
He struck the blood on the back of his head with the back of his sword.
As the aura of the holy sword penetrates her blood, Nancy’s eyes turn white and she collapses in front of her.
And her eyes caught Olivia pulling her arrowhead.
Pishuuk!
The attack was dodged, but the arrow barely grazed Lucy’s shoulder.
I covered it with her palm, but I could feel the sharp pain.
However, Lucy was awakened by the choice of her holy sword and came to her senses faster than normal people.
Rumbling
As soon as she took one step, a large fire broke out around Lucy.
Even if I felt like I was going to get burned by the heat, my body was safe under the protection of the holy sword, but my senses were vivid.
“Anyway, it was wrong to safely retrieve the holy sword. The purpose of the expedition is to prevent civilians from getting hurt… There are no exceptions.”
Olivia picked up her Nancy and took refuge in her tree while Delphine raised her wand over her thumbs and spread her four fingers.
As the triangular magic circle was drawn at high speed, the aura of the holy sword also became stronger.
Whoa, when Delphine’s breath came in, a huge gust of wind blew up.
The gust of wind immediately ran to Lucy, and Olivia took advantage of her chance to evade it with arrows.
As soon as his feet touched the ground, an arrow attack, and a gust of wind dominated the air.
With the help of the holy sword, Lucy evaded the attack, but she couldn’t close the distance with them.
[Lucy, I will use my strength, so gather your divine power as much as you can]
“How do you gather divine power!? Alas!”
The arrowhead missed her Achilles tendon, causing her to bend at the knee and fall.
As Lucy, who had fallen down, caught him by the ankle, the holy sword also fell to the floor.
Lucy tried to get up quickly for a moment, even his pain.
“You can never be chosen by the holy sword.”
Olivia, already tugging her bowstring, was aiming at her neck.
She gives her a glance that he will shoot at her if she moves the slightest, then glances at her holy sword.
“Since the only owner of the holy sword is the hero, even if you are chosen, it is not yours.”
Olivia’s voice was strangely branched.
And her gaze at the Holy Sword seemed to be locked in her memory.
“Saint Etia was right. A new hero has appeared, and the Holy Sword is also waiting for a new hero. Real retina… Rex is dead.”
Olivia’s eyes moistened slightly.
Lucy, who had noticed her, reached for her holy sword, and as the string of her bow was pulled tight, she glared at her wrist.
“Even if you have divine power, you, a civilian, are not a hero. The hero over there is the owner of the holy sword, so please let go of him.”
[Who said he died?]
“… ! Warrior… ?”
As expected, Olivia was the first to respond to Retina’s voice.
Olivia, who has been loyal to her warriors more than anyone else, is only embarrassed by this situation.
The holy sword has the hero’s voice and is talking to you?
Anyone who hears it can laugh at it, saying it is crazy.
“Really warrior… Are you a warrior?”
[Olivia, would you believe me if I said the real me?]
“Ah, this sweet tone. I’ve always forgotten…”
Olivia put her bowstring down as if her arms were giving way.
Even when she heard it again up close, she was hit by that hero, ‘Retina’.
Truly she did not die. She doesn’t know why she was resurrected with the holy sword, but she said that what matters to Olivia is whether the hero is alive or dead.
“I thought you would still be alive… But why why, now…”
Olivia, who had completely lost her will to fight, stretched out her hand, but was stopped by the wavy aura of her holy sword.
Fuck!
[Sorry, Olivia. I’ll do a proper explanation later]
The moment Olivia was distracted by her holy sword.
Lucy did the same to Olivia, just as her brother passed out by piercing her blood with the blade of her hand.
Her golden hair fluttered in the air as she fell, followed by her fireballs.
The Holy Sword’s aura shield wrapped around Lucy and Olivia, but the cracks came out a little.
“Huh… I’m sorry brother, I don’t think I can stand it any longer.”
The holy sword selects and amplifies the possessor’s divine power.
Lucy had weak divine powers and grew them big, but the wick of the small flame burned easily.
‘I really feel like dying.’
A normal human being could not withstand the enormous divine power.
Lucy, who was gagging, eventually knelt down on his knees.
I need to avoid it, but I don’t have the strength to avoid it.
However, Delphine, distracted from focusing on the magic circle, created a huge fire in the air and shot it straight away.
Kwa-ang!
Fire on Lucy’s head.
But the fire was extinguished before it even reached Lucy.
“Adventurer…”
A black cloak covered her head.
Relieved by his enormous size, Lucy entrusted her weak body to him and closed her eyes.
Ikarut, who lightly received the weak woman’s body, was about to lie down on the floor.
[Hey, what are you doing]
“… Don’t break the atmosphere, oppa.”
Lucy, held in his arms, opened one of his eyes and said poutingly,
After the battle, Ikarut ran and laid Lucy down without a word.
