chapter 29
1 Second Sword Master Episode 29
‘This far.’
Who could have imagined that Aslan would have such a demonic sword?
It was such a cheeky and arrogant sword that resembled its owner.
The problem is that I can’t get my head around what the sword did.
It feels like the world is spinning around.
I was so disgusted that I wanted to vomit.
“…”
On top of that, Aslan was looking down on himself.
It was a very three-part day.
“under-. I never intended to die so absurdly.”
Even now, if you raise your mana, you will be able to create at least one attack magic. But look at Aslan.
Rebecca calmly holds the dropped sword.
Can I do something to a normal person with that magic sword?
“Don’t drag it out too long. If you’re going to kill me, kill me quickly.”
And even if he wants to use magic, the dizziness is so extreme that even getting up is difficult. It was mental pain, as if he had suffered from dragon fear.
“Are you trying to kill me anyway? You have to finish the unfinished work with your own hands.”
yes. If you can’t kill it, let’s beat it coolly, even if it means cursing.
“I didn’t believe that baby. sick bastard. If only I had stepped out…! Then you must have died.”
“…”
“Say something. no. You mean you don’t want to mix things up with the seed of the lowly family you trampled on? This is a fucking baby. ”
As if screaming, Rebecca threw all kinds of nutheads at her opponent.
The resentment accumulated for a long time was released here.
Is that why?
My stomach felt relieved.
And still the opponent,
“…”
I just looked down at myself without speaking.
“Fuck. to the end······.”
Aslan just stared at him indifferently as he had before, but he never opened his mouth.
Is it the same this time too?
Still, people can say at least one word, right?
“Bad baby.”
But that was just then.
“Rebecca.”
The first voice came out of his tightly closed mouth.
“I didn’t call you here to kill you.”
“······what?”
“I just wanted to say this.”
He crouched down slowly and looked straight at himself.
“How have you been? Rebecca.”
“·······?!”
Rebecca’s mouth opened wide, but she couldn’t speak in surprise.
What is this man talking about now?
“Why did you think I would kill you? If I had thought of that, I wouldn’t have treated Elberstein with the utmost respect and ordered him to bring you.”
“I-I made a promise to Raoul to kill you…”
Aslan burst out laughing.
“Did you think you could do anything about this body with just that kind of unmarried engagement? She was my fiancee, but she never knew anything about me.”
“…”
Only unmarried?
You know how it’s made and it sounds like that!
“Even so, I ate every drop. It is a gift from you.”
“crazy! What are you talking about!”
“So you don’t have to suffer the guilt of trying to kill me anymore. If you really wanted to kill me, you would have used a more brutal method.”
I wanted to say something, but nothing came to mind.
“And they must have wanted to avenge the destruction of the four families by the Berak family. I fully understand.”
“Family Revenge?”
Rebecca snorted.
“The damn family didn’t even treat me as family anyway. They treated me condescendingly and ignored me for no reason.”
“Do you really think there was no reason?”
“what?”
“You said something. wake up I will help you.”
Rebecca shook off Aslan’s hand and stood up on her own.
“it’s okay. Do you know who is your lover?”
“I know you’re a strong kid.”
At that, Rebecca raised her eyes fiercely, but Aslan smiled softly.
Who knew how to smile like that?
“I wasn’t expecting a meeting like this, but… but it’s nice to see you again like this.”
“Why? The fiancée you thought was dead turned out to be alive?”
“I’ve known for a long time that you weren’t dead.”
“…?”
“I just watched from afar. I was relieved to see you create a shadow guild and become the guild leader there and go on a winning streak.”
You’ve been watching me all this time?
I thought I completely forgot.
“As before, I will continue to support you, Rebecca.”
“!?”
In an instant, I felt my face heat up.
“Dog, you’re talking bullshit!”
“Your words are still childlike.”
“What a child! How old am I now! It’s because you say strange things!”
Embarrassed, Rebecca thought of getting out of here quickly.
“Anyway, ooh, is there anything between us anymore? huh? Aren’t you coming to catch me all of a sudden?”
“I don’t know if you want to kill me again.”
“huh! It won’t happen anymore.”
When I tried to leave the room like that, my feet didn’t come off easily.
It felt like I had to pay the price for this uneasy feeling.
“It’s good that you’re sober.”
“What do you mean?”
“The kingdom of Omer is secretly preparing an army. Sooner or later, he must be marching toward the Kingdom of Eli. Lucian will be at the vanguard of that. This is information I recently learned.”
“The kingdom of Omer?”
“yes. From the front, they will try to negotiate peace with you, but from behind, they will prepare an army and attack. It’s good to be prepared. It’s not unusual there these days.”
“Are you worried?”
It was Rebecca who blushed again at those words.
“Hey, what the hell to worry about! Just pay off your debt with this! Do you know how stupid the people of Omer are right now? They even borrowed the devil’s power…”
“If that’s the case, there’s no need to worry.”
“…?”
“As long as Aslan is alive and well, there is no way the Kingdom of Eli will be defeated.”
That confident voice and sullen look.
I wanted to yell at him for talking bullshit this time, but the words didn’t come out of my mouth.
“I definitely told you. do it yourself.”
Rebecca left the office as if running away that way.
When I touched my face, I could still feel the heat.
“uh? sister!”
The guild members outside rushed to her.
“We were worried because we thought something was really going on!”
“sister. But why is your face so red?”
“Because we talked about something inside…”
Rebecca shouted as she pushed away the guild members who were gathering grossly.
“do not know! Your breath stinks, so don’t come near me, bastards!”
“Oh! sister! let’s go together!”
“no. They say they don’t serve dinner?!”
“Hey crazy bastards. Just follow me soon, it’s embarrassing.”
Rebecca, who was taking out the guild members, glanced back at Aslan’s office.
Aslan.
Even now, he is still an unknown person.
And the evaluation that he was a person full of bravado… seemed to have to be corrected now.
* * *
“Have you gone?”
woo woo woo-.
A long sigh leaked out.
“crazy. The game is truly amazing.”
It’s also shocking that I was engaged to Rebecca a long time ago, but that the woman called X’s fiancé tried to kill me.
“What kind of life has Aslan been living?”
Aslan has too many enemies.
There are many things that even I, a deceased person, do not know.
Still, it seemed that he overcame the crisis well with appropriate improvisation.
“By the way······.”
Why did Rebecca act like that after holding this sword?
It seemed like he was raising his mana to kill me.
“What kind of reaction did the sword have?”
I even looked at the sword this way and that way and shook it.
“Hey, sword. Can you hear me?”
“…”
An embarrassing silence passed.
No matter how many times it was repeated, the result was the same.
“yes. What kind of egosword is an egosword?”
There’s no way this will answer my words.
“I just wanted to get information and items.”
I wasn’t rushing to call Rebecca.
Who would have known that there would be such a bad relationship between the two?
I almost died.
still,
“Did you get any information?”
The kingdom of Omer is preparing for war.
But why?
“Because of Elberstein?”
I figured they’d send me a letter telling me to hand over Elberstein because if I waited a little longer, I’d triple the reward.
However, the kingdom of Omer did not send a letter and rather prepared an army.
Are these things you don’t even want to push?
“no. Isn’t 3 times a national rule honestly? Can’t you give me one?”
To be honest, 5 times was over the line, and 3 times was only a line.
But it’s a waste, so I won’t give it to you, and you’ll just go to war?
“Are they crazy? War is not child’s play.”
It would be better to pay 3 times the bounty and not go to war.
I just wanted to believe that the information was wrong, but-.
“Rebecca’s information can never be wrong.”
Rebecca’s information is worth it as much as it is expensive.
The information she has has never been wrong.
That means soon
“They say the kingdom of Omer is coming soon.”
Sword Master Lucian will be at the forefront.
Then there is even the Tekina tribe behind them.
“I’d just sell it for twice as much…”
That’s why you shouldn’t be greedy and should have listened to the advice to buy from the knee and sell from the shoulder.
Is it too late to regret
Resending the letter now won’t change anything.
Rebecca’s information is almost prophetic.
It is because the information is sure to happen.
This was like a rule that the developers had established since designing the character Rebecca.
Her information is unmistakable, and the price is inexhaustibly expensive because it must be done according to that information. So it was very important to get information from her in order to play the game.
“There is no choice but to prepare for this.”
I said after clearing my throat.
“Is there anyone else out there?”
Then a knight came inside.
“Did you find it?”
“Bring Elberstein.”
“Yes.”
If war cannot be avoided, we must gather our strength as much as possible.
To reduce the damage to our kingdom to a minimum so that only the kingdom of Omer could be harmed.
To do so, as in the original game quest, you must join hands with the lord of Ricard and convince Lucian to betray the king.
In any case, the war will be fought by Elberstein’s supporters.
Then I don’t have to waste soldiers, and I don’t have to go to war.
Maybe you’re lucky enough to be a fisherman.
“But Rebecca’s eyes look really strange.”
I remembered Rebecca’s face while waiting for Elberstein.
Isn’t it Rebecca, one of the five most beautiful women in this game?
Especially those purple eyes.
People may not know now, but I know the secret of those pupils.
The person with those eyes
“A bloodline born between demons and humans.”
That was Rebecca’s true identity.
“Isn’t it good that you didn’t say anything?”
After all, depending on the story of the game, it may be revealed, or it may be buried forever.
“So let me just ask.”
A person I will never see again after today.
But for some reason, I had a strong intuition that we would meet again.
