Chapter 44 – Test (3)
I saw Arya.
It is a full blown window.
Same as last time, same this time.
I can’t fully protect you
You always make it full of scars.
Sorry.
Really.
Is it because I can’t control my anger?
Azazel’s expression darkened slightly.
It’s a gloomy mug.
She trembled and opened her mouth.
“It’s because of me. Even if I just stopped Aria from following me, even if I didn’t lose to that tin can.”
Teouk.
She put her hand on her little head.
Wouldn’t he get angry saying that he was rude and that he felt bad?
Quiet beyond thinking
Azazel’s quivering eyes look up at me.
You are not that different either.
I don’t want to show my inner weakness, so I put on her pointed shell.
Even if that shell hurt someone, you wouldn’t be able to take it off.
You must have been afraid of revealing your weak and soft inside.
“Done.”
As if he hadn’t expected such words to come out, his red eyes widened.
“Take care of Arya’s wounds.”
“Yes.”
Azazel staggers toward Arya.
Even though she is a mage, she knows some healing magic.
Not to mention that Azazel Anade.
She can leave
Calm down.
I breathe out.
And see.
A man in frozen, scorched armor.
The holy sword he held.
It’s not just the cold weather that makes my skin tingle.
The sense of intimidation, pressure, and presence emanating from that person.
A being that encompasses death.
Perhaps the point of the sword reached the neck of the demon king.
A true hero who was ‘recognized’ by the holy sword.
-Are you done?
He was waiting
None other than yourself.
My head is hot.
I’m holding a holy sword
The holy sword originally exists alone.
That’s why it’s a ‘Holy Sword’.
How do multiple holy swords exist?
Little things like that are good anyway.
The important thing is that Arya was harmed.
She said she couldn’t stop it.
“Thanks for waiting.”
The words spoken do not tremble.
It was only natural that he had suppressed the anger that had risen to the limit.
Quiet, but not still.
– Why don’t you come, what are you doing? Are you planning to kill all the girls?
It’s like a provocation.
Even though I knew it, the hand holding the holy sword was overstretched.
It’s not good to get excited.
The tip of the sword shakes, the precision decreases, and the field of view narrows.
Look at it now
Can’t I see only you in my eyes
Saying you can’t forgive, saying you’re going to kill me.
What do you do with such meaningless words?
I swallowed the enmity that quietly burned.
Burning, burning, swallowing burning emotions, burns the firewood that is oneself.
“It will be different from before.”
I was frustrated before.
Being careless doesn’t mean anything.
Die on the ground
When you die, it’s over.
Undeservedly, I had a ‘next’.
I know that the opponent is not a friendly opponent.
I have already experienced it myself.
-I hope so.
Knowing that, I’m determined.
Power from the beginning
I gripped the holy sword more loosely than before.
One step.
Two steps.
Three steps.
The more they moved, the closer they were to each other.
Gradually increase the speed
Run through space
And at some point, he clashed with the former warrior.
Visor!
A rustle rang out.
The Holy Sword and the Holy Sword interlocked.
Heavy
Face to face, you know.
During a power struggle with swords facing each other, his sword aims at the side.
It seems to wriggle like a snake.
It is the same pattern as before.
If you let it go, it will be destroyed in an instant.
Am I easy enough to use the same pattern twice?
I grab his chain glove.
I tried to beat me up, but he tried to beat me in reverse as if he had read my thoughts.
If this is the case, the power will be used.
You can’t leave it like that.
I pushed him away with my left foot.
The swords they had met dropped, and he stepped back.
Caang!
He surmised that he had retreated.
It was a sword aiming for the head in an instant.
Fast, no fuss
If he hadn’t hastily pulled his sword, he would have been hit in the head.
It was a blow that made hair and fluff stand on end.
It’s not an ordinary skill.
But don’t just admire it.
Move the sword
Kang!
The guy is faster than before.
Caang!
Barely catch up
Visor!
The bastard accelerated gradually.
Kang!
This time it was close.
The sword is crying.
The warriors of the former generation are constantly pushing me.
It’s getting stronger like a wave.
Back, wrists, shoulders, stomach.
I have been aiming for vital points freely.
I was in a hurry to get rid of it.
Gradually, it was difficult to respond, and the small wounds increased.
The skills of former warriors are overwhelming.
I feel like I am dealing with a teacher.
In terms of swordsmanship, muscle strength, and tactical thinking, he was beaten by several numbers.
A feeling of being thoroughly overwhelmed in every way.
When I came to my senses, I was rolling on the floor.
His sword tracks fast.
I moved the holy sword from bottom to top.
It was a handshake.
Because the action was done in a state where the posture was out of order, the load was applied to the body, and the strength was not properly applied.
Quaang!
The holy sword flew through the air in a circle.
It’s not an opponent to miss that gap.
I feel eerie.
He desperately moved his heavily loaded body.
A long scar was engraved on the floor where he had just rolled.
Narrowly dodged.
I burst his feet with the magic I learned from Azazel.
However, as if foreseeable, he easily dodges and approaches.
The flying holy sword is still far away.
There is no means to counter his sword attack.
He stomped his feet, forcing the terrain to rise.
It’s not as skillful as Azazel’s, but I was able to use it to some extent.
From his point of view, it would appear as if the ground had suddenly risen.
Squeak.
The protruding mud wall was cut like a piece of paper.
I couldn’t even wait a few seconds.
However, that short amount of time was enough to retrieve the holy sword.
I responded by swinging the holy sword I grabbed again.
Caang!
Due to the grand sword strike, the body was pushed out.
-You foolish remnant. Is it a squirrel, not a warrior?
Awesome.
Even though I got the Holy Sword back, I took too much power.
The appropriate distance was substituted.
He wasn’t even breathing.
Only I am holding my breath.
The former warrior opened his mouth.
-It’s such a pity, so where would you cut the devil’s nails?
“You talk a lot even though you’re not going to cut it.”
-I don’t know why Karelin chose a guy with such a light sword as a hero.
That’s what I heard when I first fought with him.
For a warrior, the sword is light.
It’s funny.
There is nothing to do lightly on the sword.
“Because unlike you, who has been perfected, I’m still growing up.”
-Do you think such a crude excuse will work in life and death?
So you’re saying you don’t even have a chin?
Oops, my teeth were grinding.
“Are you admonishing me?”
-If you stopped me, those girls wouldn’t have been hurt. Isn’t it? You need to be alert to your defeat. You are a warrior You can’t lose to anyone.
It was an obsession.
It was so funny.
“Is it okay for a nobleman called the Hero of the previous generation to not be so relaxed?”
He laughed
– I’ve said it before.
He moves
– Knock me down otherwise die
His sword approaches
Quaang!
His body was pushed back.
Stronger, more ferocious, stronger than before.
Were you looking at the crowd?
-Your precious things, not you, will disappear before your eyes.
Don’t let that happen
It doesn’t let it slip out of your hand like it used to.
I have changed.
Live to change
I will prove here that it is different from when I lost my sister.
He posed
Aaaaa
I felt a deep sense of murder.
I enjoyed the feeling of being the weak in front of predators.
Can’t win
It is an absolute existence.
Can’t resist
Fragmented and negative emotions eat away at your head and slow you down.
I shook my head.
Have you ever had a fight to win?
“Would you like to hear something like that?”
Don’t lose
I rushed at it as if I was shaking off my stiff legs and my frightened self.
A strong posture like a castle wall.
Posture without any gaps.
If you move hastily, you will be hit back.
Know.
I know, but bumping into it is me.
Forcibly tapping and squeezing through the gaps is my way.
Caang!
The Holy Sword and the Holy Sword collide.
The sword let out a cry.
He moved his arms faster than before.
He responds to all
It’s not okay to look like this.
It needs a heavy room.
I gathered the light into the holy sword.
A black pulsating holy sword.
He also collected blue light.
A holy sword that burns blue.
Black and blue oppose each other.
The moment the swords collided, there was a loud sound like a bomb exploding.
The violent recoil returned and the body floated.
How many meters does it fly?
Dizzy.
‘Where is he?’
He chased me through the air.
I’m already in a dizzy state, but I have no mercy.
His holy sword was burning blue.
Wherever you want to try, try it.
I also gathered light on the sword.
Another clash broke out in the air.
Aaaaang!
Both landed safely on the ground.
Blue flames still glowed on his sword.
Did not turn off
If so, this one won’t turn off either.
Can’t turn it off
If the former warriors can do it, I can do it too.
I am also a warrior.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
Explosions occurred whenever swords collided with each other.
Like fireworks, it lit up the dark night.
His arm is broken
Does not matter.
A few ribs were missing.
Does not matter.
The leg was also twisted.
Does not matter.
Blood rose up to the neck.
Does not matter.
His head was torn and blood flowed into his eyes, blurring his vision.
Does not matter.
I didn’t let go of the sword.
As much as the sword.
-The will to endure is imaginary, but losing is unchanging.
I’m sorry, but that son of a bitch was right.
There are no variables.
He overworked himself over and over again to catch up, but he quickly raised his level.
Did you come this far?
Then go higher
Follow me again
Ok can I do this?
It’s like this.
Does that person have limits?
“I don’t lose.”
Can’t lose here
If I lose, who will protect them?
Those who have something to protect must become strong.
You have to be strong.
Because otherwise I can’t keep it.
Because you will lose
– Like that? It’s like a living corpse.
There was a taste of iron in the mouth.
There is no sound place.
-The warriors in this generation are lousy. Karelin got it wrong too.
It is leisurely.
It’s a leisurely response.
The nausea was intense.
“Cool.”
Even if I tried to refute, it was difficult because of my physical condition.
He takes the sword
And before falling.
A harsh voice was heard.
“Shut up!”
The sword stopped.
The former hero tilted his head as if wondering and stared at his back.
-… ?
A woman with dark hair is standing.
She is not completely standing.
His whole body is covered in blood, and he is supported by Azazel.
Still, her eyes do not waver.
“Don’t judge him on your own terms.”
The words were flat.
“Are you uncomfortable? Not at all.”
Unshakable like a firm faith.
“Ain is better than any other hero.”
I had faith.
“I will never lose to you.”
That word.
That belief.
Because it’s really heavy.
“Is that so?”
Energizes the body
Power goes in
I received this kind of support, but I don’t feel sad when I lose.
At the same time, the holy sword radiated light.
-Five.
Was it an exclamation or a sigh?
The shape of the holy sword I was holding changed.
The wounds suffered have been healed.
“I can’t lose yet, son.”
It’s the 2nd round start.
