chapter 32
1 Second Sword Master Episode 32
Koo-!!
The ground rumbled as the giant fell backwards.
At the same time, my head also seemed to ring like a bell.
‘This, what is this…!’
As the will of the sword was activated, the swordsman and the momentary strength were expressed at the same time, the sword steel that defeated the giant soldier the other day split Lucian’s body this time.
‘This isn’t a complete bamboo spear skill.’
To be fair, you and I have one shot.
Even if it was that monster that had become a beast, if anyone touched it, it would fall out in one shot.
But,
‘Not yet… not yet the end.’
I caught my shaking spirit.
In times like this, you need to be calm.
Because there are still lieutenants and troops of Omer Kingdom ahead of them.
So now,
‘I need Aslan’s bluff.’
After defeating Lucian, I deliberately threw myself into the bluff that was sinking for a moment.
Then, the bravado rising from the waist stabilized my heart rate and made the flow of blood vessels calm.
Tumble- Tumble-
‘But where am I going now?’
I think this is the first time I’ve voluntarily brought up a bluff that had been sinking.
The feeling was strange, but not too bad.
This is why he held my spirit straight in such an embarrassing and cluttered atmosphere.
of course,
Kwajik-!!
“The Continental Sword Master is facing his end as a dirty monster. Fool.”
Crossing the line was the problem.
I followed the seething bravado and trampled on Lucian’s half-cut head.
His body, from which the demonic energy escaped, could be crushed as lightly as mud.
then,
“Are you guys wooden?”
I glared coldly at the knights in front of me.
Aslan’s bravado, which started to explode once, made me impulsive and stimulated them.
In my work,
“!”
they took a step back.
Without stopping there, I took a step forward toward them.
“If you are the same as this monster, raise your sword.”
And fought bravely.
It’s a power without a rattle, but the eyes looking at them and bravado were the strongest on the continent.
“Ugh-.”
But none of them drew their swords.
Rather, he groaned and trembled like a frightened beast.
Then the morbid bravado burned even hotter.
Like a beast that has found its prey,
“Because I, Aslan, will personally deal with you.”
He expressed the bluff of losing his cowardly head.
“Anyone can jump. I’ll purify you like that monster.”
“…”
A moment of heavy silence passed.
It wouldn’t be strange if someone pulled out a knife and ran at it like this.
But,
“Ooh, we are not monsters!”
One of them raised his voice.
Then, you and I shouted as if we had been waiting.
“We are not demons!”
“I’ve heard rumors, but I can’t imagine that the commander of the Grand Division, Lucian, will become such an ugly monster…!”
“In addition, he killed the lieutenants who had been with him for over 10 years without hesitation!”
Seeing Lucian turn into a demon, they seemed shocked.
Also, hadn’t he personally witnessed the merciless butchering of his adjutants?
The shock was just great.
“We didn’t come here to do this.”
“To think that the kingdom of Omer would really fall into the hands of demons…”
The flow was good.
If I could persuade them and bring them to my side…
“These pathetic bastards.”
However, the morbid bravado that once started stepping on the accelerator could not stop.
I looked at them with scornful eyes, absorbed in the rising rage.
“Can you guys call yourself a knight? You just stand there like a scarecrow, not knowing what state your superiors are in or who is playing the kingdom.”
“…”
“You are insignificant bastards who do not even know the honor of being a knight. Don’t you even know what you’re raising your sword for? It’s a waste to even call him a knight.”
Despite such insulting remarks, the knights simply bowed their heads.
Fortunately, they did not seem to have the will to fight.
“But-.”
I told them with a wriggling bravado.
“It is not too late.”
“…?”
“You still have a chance. A chance to make everything right.”
Their heads, which had been fixed on the floor, slowly came up.
“If you truly hate demons and deny their power, prove it. That you guys are different.”
in silent silence.
It was an awkward silence, no different from before.
However, if there is anything that has changed, it is their eyes.
“Can we really be different?”
“Can you restore our tarnished honor?”
I nodded.
“Yes.”
And he glared at Perimara, who was not sure what to do next to them and was only looking at her eyes.
“It’s probably the beginning of dealing with the devil’s minion next to you.”
The eyes of the knights were all focused on Ferimara.
Their anger was poured out on him.
“Perimara.”
“I have heard the rumors. You say you practice black magic?”
“Surely you corrupted our kingdom!”
Then Perimara screamed in a fit of rage.
“Hey, you stupid bastards! Are you fooled by such a pun! Your enemy is not me, but that Aslan!”
Well, he only said the right things every phrase, which made it rather bitter.
“Did you dare say that you were playing with words?”
However, such words are like throwing firewood at Aslan’s bluff.
“To think that a man who has tarnished and tarnished their honor would talk like that. You want to die.”
“Hee, hee!”
Ferimara looked at my terrified eyes and took a step backwards, eventually knocking her butt to the floor.
The knights drew their swords and approached Perimara.
“Perimara. Don’t resist! We will catch you and investigate directly. Who are the evil forces hiding in our kingdom!”
He gritted his teeth.
“This is why the clogged knights are useless.”
“what?”
“Do you think I will be easily captured by guys like you?”
Then Perimara cast her magic and tried to escape like last time.
Then he yelled at me as if he was going to kill me.
“wait. Today’s humiliation will never be forgotten. I will definitely, definitely come to avenge you, Aslan!”
oh for a moment.
Do you think it would be dangerous to miss it like this?
If Perimara disappears like this, I don’t know when and where it will attack me.
Right then.
“Perimara!!”
Elberstein flying lightly like a feather in the air with a booming voice.
As he falls, exhaling blue spirits,
Pooh-!
“Aagh!”

Just like that, the knife went through Perimara’s thigh and pierced the floor.
“Eh, Elberstein! Yes, you… you dare! Aww!”
“Don’t miss twice.”
Elberstein drew the knife and this time stuck it in the other foot.
“Aww!”
“I will make you pay for your sins. Perimara!”
“This, this kid!”
Ferimara raised her black magic power and gathered it in her hands.
It was to use magic to kill Elberstein.
But,
I’m sorry-!
Before Perimara’s magic even manifested, Aaron’s foot hit him in the face.
“100 million-!”
Ferimara collapsed on the floor and passed out.
All of the magical energy he raised was also gone.
It was Perimara who generously showed her ugliness until the end.
Elberstein said as he pulled out the knife that was stamped on Ferimara’s foot.
“Thank you, Aaron.”
Aaron nodded and walked away.
It was because the Omer Kingdom knights were approaching Elberstein.
“Prince······.”
“You-all.”
“Well, we are…”
“It’s okay. I know what you guys are talking about. But now, rather than regret-”
Elberstein looked in my direction and continued.
“Shouldn’t we correct the wrongs as Grand Commander Aslan said?”
I looked at Elberstein’s information quietly.
[Elberstein]
Power: 85
Intellect: 85
The power level, which temporarily soared to 90 due to the rage attribute, gradually came down and stopped at 85.
Now, Elberstein has become a strong man with the same skill as Aaron.
no. If you use your traits well, Aaron might not be an opponent anymore.
Suddenly our Aaron looks shabby.
Looking at the situation going back, it seemed like it was time to sort things out.
“Have you made up your mind?”
At my words, the knights couldn’t reply.
“If you still want to follow the power of evil, there is no choice.”
I closed my eyes and made one last morbid bravado.
“The only way to purify this place is by killing you and that army.”
“!?”
It was an absurd, absurd bravado.
I don’t have the strength to do that, and no matter how many times they lost their grand division commander, they had a good chance of winning if they waged an all-out war with us.
But,
“Uh, we have no intention of fighting, ah, Aslan, the commander of the Grand Division.”
“Boo, please be generous…”
Aslan’s bluff like an idiot was completely eating them.
Their bodies and voices trembling like aspen trees prove it.
there,
“Aslan, the commander of the standby division.”
Elberstein also seemed nervous.
These were the ones who truly believed I had the power to annihilate that great army.
“Please have mercy.”
“I have already given enough. It’s just you guys who didn’t answer.”
Then the knights raised their voices one by one.
“As Aslan said, we will right the wrong with our own hands!”
“Our Omer kingdom will drive out all evil forces!”
I looked at the shouting knights in a hurry with an arrogant nod, and said to Elberstein.
“I think you will.”
“Yes. I will also agree with them.”
“good.”
I turned away from them.
Flutter~
I didn’t forget to flap the cape nicely.
Then Elberstein grabbed me.
“Aren’t you going with me?”
I?
You might get involved in another strange fight?
If I’ve made it this far, I feel like I’ve done my job.
Asking for more of this was the same as asking to chew the rice in his mouth instead.
“Reclaim your kingdom, Elberstein.”
So I’ll go back to my kingdom,
“I’ll be waiting.”
What a generous reward you give me.
At the same time,
[You have completed the quest.]
* * *
“…”
Elberstein stared blankly at Aslan’s back as he walked away.
Still he felt like someone out of reach.
It was like a person looking down on everyone from a height so far away that he could not dare to cross or even touch it.
‘I can’t be like him forever.’
However, if I constantly try to reach him, wouldn’t I be able to follow his toes someday?
“The rumors that you might be on par with Sword Master Karman are true.”
“no. maybe even more Lucian, who became a demon, with a single sword, no. I killed that with my bare hands…”
“It was the first time in my life that I had ever forged such powerful sword steel by hand.”
The adjutants were still trembling.
All of them were overwhelmed by the amazing power that Aslan had shown and the sense of intimidation that oppressed the opponent.
“If we didn’t know it and waged an all-out war with the Kingdom of Eli…”
My eyes closed spontaneously.
The entire plain will be stained with the blood of the soldiers of Omer Kingdom, and Aslan will be standing on top of the corpses piled up like a mountain.
chuck-!
“…?”
At that time, Elberstein greeted Aslan with a bow.
It was not something that could be seen as the status of a prince, but the courtesy of a loyal subordinate towards the lord.
“Wow, Prince!”
The lieutenants were startled and tried to stop him, but Elberstein was unmoved.
“It’s okay. He is already my lord. Are you preventing me from even saying goodbye to my lord?”
“Ha, but the prince is the one who will soon become king. If we return to the kingdom of Omer and drive out the current king who has colluded with the devil…”
Despite their concerns, Elberstein shook his head.
“Even so, as a knight, I chose him as my lord. Together with you, I will rebuild the Kingdom of Omer and reclaim the stolen throne, but I will not forget the spirit of the knight he taught me. There…”
Elberstein continued with a hearty smile.
“Didn’t he tell you? I will wait.”
“…”
“Even if I become a king, my heart will always serve him as my lord.”
Then the knights could no longer dissuade him.
It was because, even to them, Aslan looked like a person who was far beyond something.
All knights and those who wield a sword cannot help but admire Aslan’s majesty.
That’s why even after counting Elberstein’s heart a hundred times, he still had it left.
“Go back. As he told us, isn’t it time to make things right?”
The knights responded in a loud voice.
“Yes!”
That’s how Elberstein calmed down the chaotic army and headed for Omer Kingdom.
