9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 417

Episode 417

Episode 134. Hwa-Eun’s Guardian (3)

Yuma left behind her white-faced Ka, and started to walk.

“Hey hey. Yuma! What are you talking about! Aren’t you telling me to die?”

“Cheer up, Jeka. I hope you are alive when I return.”

Fuck! Fuck! Kujik!

Yuma and Marlon, who had passed Zecca, could soon hear such a sound. It was the sound of Duran beating Zecca, but the two of them didn’t bother to turn around to check it out.

“Jekah, as soon as he gains his strength, he falls apart.”

“Originally, power is only appropriate if it is destroyed before or after gaining it. Where in the world is there anything for free?”

“Well, that would be it.”

It wasn’t just a joke.

Yuma sincerely thought that power gained without cost was worthless. Even if Zecca became stronger by obtaining the Dragon’s Eye, it would be meaningless if he did not pay the price accordingly.

Because owning power and using it are two different things.

In that respect, Zecca needed more and more intense training than before. Every time Yuma

moved,

he felt that the energy of his anger was gradually getting stronger.

The energy of Hwaan perfectly matched that of Mantu, who had been resurrected for a while. Because of this, Yuma’s monkey-like face came to mind as his energy got closer.

“Remember what I said about Mantu?”

“Of course I don’t remember. He said he was an idiot who looked like a monkey. He is also the fourth teacher after Lord Duran.”

“that’s right. But if you think about it, Mantu has many similarities with you.”

“okay? It doesn’t sound like a compliment.”

“It’s a compliment. If you had seen what a great end he had, you would have admired him for the rest of your life.”

“You’re a recognized person, so what’s the point? I should have followed you when you left for the east.”

After escaping from the pure white land where the primeval forest disappeared, the two entered the temple-like atmosphere again.

“Isn’t the scenery different from before?”

“Right, it seems that the structure of the seal has changed. It must be because Friga Matiu is dead.”

Countless stone statues had disappeared like lies.

Instead, there were small flames swirling around where the statues were, but they seemed to be floating in the air without a flame, just like a fire spirit.

And those sparks were forming the road.

It was a straight line, and the flames were getting bigger towards the back, but strangely, the place where the biggest flames were embroidered looked the darkest.

“It is strange. Why is it the darkest over there? The light is the strongest.”

Yuma, who sensed the area with his unique aura, soon learned the reason.

‘It’s another dimension from there.

As Freega Matiu’s magical power disappeared, a new dimension that Hwaan was sealed in was revealed.’

Because it is a different dimension, visual distortion occurs even when the lights are bright.

Yuma explained this to Marlon.

“If it’s another dimension, wouldn’t you have to escape by creating a fire like in the free country after entering again?”

“Just because you are in another dimension doesn’t mean there are only hostile beings. There might be a situation where you don’t have to start a fire and cut the dimension.”

“Hmm. But there’s no law saying that there shouldn’t be infestation with demons or the minions of the demon dragon you just killed. If that happens, there may come a situation where I have to protect you by myself.”

I’m honestly not sure

Marlon smiled bitterly as he added that.

“Did you lose your confidence?”

“No, it’s not like that. I just came here and clearly grasped my strength. You can go out and try harder.

It’s just that if you and I go there and meet guys who are difficult to handle, it’s going to be difficult. You need to be rational.”

“It is shocking. The words to think rationally came out of your mouth…

I’m not kidding, Yuma was really shocked. To Yuma, Marlon is synonymous with a man who rushes without turning back.

“Hey Yuma. what’s the reaction I think you’re mistaken about something, but since Ferrol, the fishing village, you always had accidents, and I acted rationally. Think carefully.”

Yuma couldn’t help but blink his eyes as if he had eaten a blow.

“That’s all when I was playing Mero in Ferrol. At that time, we both turned the top. But let’s see after that. It was the same when I first came to ask the boss for a request, and also when Godmother Zishka. Which one was reckless, you or me?”

“Is that all? It was your opinion to beat Heize to death, and you were the one who terrorized the capital gate to save Natalie, and it was you who went to the Ahmad Front to find Sir Duran, and in the east too… Listening to Marlon’s history, Yuma felt confident

. I had no choice but to realize that I was far behind Malone.

“On the other hand, I mean. As a mercenary, faithfully carry out requests, form a team, move systematically, and place importance on the discipline of the Black Wolf. Even now, I am speaking of rational judgment.”

What Malone said was 100% right.

“Yeah yeah…you are more rational than me.”

“It’s not really like that. You could say you were more courageous. So now tell me What is the gift to give to me hidden in the dimension on the other side? Is it something that can paralyze my sexual thoughts?”

“Uh… maybe.”

“What is it, man?”

“That fire eye… Mantu had it, so let me use the power of fire.”

“You madman! why didn’t you tell me earlier? Let’s go right away. Now was not the time to question whether it was a rational decision or not. It only hurts your mouth!”

And Marlon ran into a dark dimension where only sparks were shining before Yuma could stop him.

Feeling somewhat confused, Yuma had no choice but to follow Marlon.

However, Yuma could not enter the dimension where the flames were.

[The path of succession has begun. Because no one can walk together on the sacred path that must be broken through alone.] A

strong repulsion was pushing Yuma away from the entrance to the dimension.

There was nothing that couldn’t be done if it was to create a spark and break it by force, but there was another reason why Yuma was looking around with a shocked look on her face.

just that voice.

He was using a stern tone, but it was definitely Mantu’s voice.

“Mantu!”

Without even having time to worry about Marlon, who had fallen to the other dimension alone, Yuma shouted Mantu’s name with all his might.

Roaring!

Then, in front of Yuma, several long flames sprouted. They were entangled in an instant to draw a human figure, and they had the same appearance as Mantu with his eyes open.

A face resembling a monkey, a roaring body, and infinitely arrogant eyes of flame.

“How… are you here?”

[Do you know me?]

Yuma’s fingertips, which were reaching for Mantu, stopped abruptly.

[I asked if you knew me.]

I wasn’t pretending not to know.

Yuma immediately understood that ‘Mantu’ in front of him did not really know him.

‘Well, the real Mantu became a demon, swept away the demon army in Lagatino, and finally met his own death…

Probably this Mantu in front of me.

No, this existence that looks just like Mantu must have been a device he made while sealing Hwaan in his lifetime.

‘Is it a kind of test for the succession of Hua’an… For example, this mantu is the guardian of Hua’an.’

Even so, isn’t this very similar? Except for the fact that the tone is a bit solemn.

Mantu, confirmed by his unique aura, was made up of the power of Aura and Hwaan, as Yuma expected. Part of Mantu’s ego must have been mixed with it in a special way.

However, the unique aura of ‘living beings’ felt in humans or other living beings

was not felt at all.

“We haven’t been together for a long time, but we know each other better than anyone.”

[What’s your name?]

“Your tone doesn’t adapt. Did that monkey want to look cool to the next generation of humans?”

[Name.]

“Yuma Drake.”

Seeing the guardian who looks just like Mantu, who doesn’t even react to the nickname monkey, made me laugh.

It wasn’t a laugh out of embarrassment or reluctance. It was because he seemed to know how much Mantoo was in shape while making this protector.

[Yuma Drake. You don’t know me, but I don’t know you. Even so, you seem to have a pretty close relationship with me.] “Yes, you were my friend and teacher.”

[I wouldn’t have had the personality to make a student.]

“I probably did. If he wasn’t a better guy than himself, he would have ignored it for now. You in your youth”

[Mantu of flames. I wasn’t such a classy person.]

“Ha ha ha! It’s embarrassing when you guys in the underworld hear it, so you can’t sleep well. Anyway… I want to ask you something. You just said that you can only walk the path of succession alone. Is that a test for succession to Hua An?”

[Yes.] “The name of the guy who has just entered the path of succession is Marlon. What if he fails the test?”

[They will rest in flames.] “Whoa…. That sounds like I have to defeat you and force myself into that dimension.”

[If possible. However, do you think that the power gained from the divided struggle is really worth it? Also, the succession of Hwaan is something that even gods cannot intervene. Are you a being beyond God?]

When Yuma couldn’t answer, Mantu smiled for the first time.

[Trust him and wait. If you are my disciple, you should behave like that. In the meantime…]

Whoa!

The flames that lit up Mantu’s body grew even thicker.

[I’ll check if I’ve learned it well, but I’ll give it a try. This is an opportunity that will only be given to you and me once.]

At that moment, Yuma recalled the memory of being helpless even after opening a storm while receiving training from Mantu.

Because of Mantu’s unique ‘blocking the streets’ battle.

If you think about it, it was right to trust and wait for Malon like Mantu said.

Now he secretly thought of him as a target for protection, but Malone was Yuma’s first opponent and the man who had the world’s strongest position in his previous life.

In addition, Malone, like Yuma, had the character of an unmanned person to the end.

‘It’s funny to worry about a guy like that.

If I break in, they will probably resent me for ruining their fight.’

Organizing her thoughts, Yuma looked at Mantoo and nodded.

“good night. It’s been a long time since I’ve met a teacher, so I’ll obey you once in a while. When we’re together, that’s not often the case.”

[It must have been a very rude disciple. Come on, I’ll give up the player.]

I’ll give up the player. It was a story that made me smile.

Yuma thought so.

In this world, the only people who dare to say ‘I will give up the players’ to him are not offended, only those whom he recognizes as his teachers.
