Psionics.
a long time ago.
Power derived from the seven dragons that ruled the Bronze Age.
It’s not even weird like witchcraft.
Not as colorful as magic,
not as powerful as a swordsman.
It’s not as convenient as a skill.
Nevertheless, psionics, which have been inherited for over a thousand years, have as much mysterious power as other supernatural powers.
One of its representative features.
“Psionics resonate.”
Of course, the sword master learns other swords.
When magic blends with other spells.
The spirits gather at the Fairy Queen.
Skills complement each other.
However, no other ability is so intrinsically mutually beneficial and resonant as psionics.
The princess who fights against the Seven Dragons is several times stronger.
It was possible because it was a psionic in itself.
“And resonance is not a one-way give-and-take. It is about coming together and becoming stronger.”
In particular, dragon psionic is difficult to resonate, so the amplification when resonance is achieved also increases.
it’s in that way
I have the eighth dragon psionic.
Also, Limon, who could naturally resonate with the princesses, was no different from a miracle in itself.
“In fact, you, the swordsman, have achieved dragon psionic resonance with our princesses several times.”
Rescuing Maia from dying.
Helping Charlotte who is in trouble with the coin.
Such as taking care of Hasneti’s internal wounds.
It is also thanks to the amplification through resonance that Limon was able to accomplish unprecedented feats not only in the Seven Dragons, but also in the Age of Bronze.
“Perhaps your dragon psionics have also deepened at that time.”
little by little like that.
But sure.
The dragon psionics he possessed must have also become stronger.
Just as a master of the Seven Dragons trains his psionics through the seventy-two kinds of martial arts.
Limon was naturally practicing psionics without realizing it while resonating with the seven princesses.
Of course, if that’s all.
Psionics would not have grown so rapidly.
Just as princesses who were born with the blood of a dragon and trained in seventy-two kinds of martial arts throughout their lives do not have infinite psionic abilities.
No matter how Limon was, it was impossible for the dragon psionic to become so strong in less than a year.
…with one exception.
“It would have been more so if we had formed a deep enough relationship to fuse each other’s psionics beyond resonance.”
“…”
That’s why Maia kept a cold sneer.
Limon was silent.
Li Qingyu turned pale.
If the training of the seventy-two types is artificial, growth through resonance between dragons and psionics is natural.
A psionic that gets stronger the more it resonates.
Especially due to the nature of the ‘eighth’.
It is a natural result that his dragon psionics have grown explosively as he has relationships with the princesses.
Thanks to that, Limon’s dragon psionics, which were already stronger than Charlotte’s, increased beyond even the princesses could handle.
“Perhaps this isn’t the first time you’ve used dragon psionics unconsciously.”
“I don’t think there was anything special like that.”
“You are the one who said that the wounds from this battle were lighter than expected.”
“Why?”
“Maybe it’s because of the psionics of biomanipulation itself, doesn’t it seem too speculative?”
“…”
Limon hardened his face.
A fierce battle with three sword masters was something he would risk his life on.
It’s only been a few days, but it was an unexpected luck that I bought it like this.
But what if it wasn’t because of luck, but because the psionics of living organisms unconsciously manifested, making the body stronger and resilient?
“It’s not just biomanipulation.”
“If you had become accustomed to telepathy, you would have become better at reading the minds of your enemies.”
“Perhaps his foreknowledge has developed, making it easier to dodge attacks, or he can feel and manipulate space more easily.”
“In that sense, originally it is a blessing if it is a blessing, never a bad thing.”
yes it is
I don’t know if it’s a normal human.
As a sword master, his body was the perfect vessel to handle even the mightiest of psionics.
In addition to swordsmanship, what if you could freely handle dragon psionics?
From now on, even other sword masters will not dare to call themselves absolutes in front of Limon.
One problem.
“If only you weren’t a swordsman.”
“…The Dragon Killer Sword.”
“exactly.”
The reason why this situation has become a curse rather than a blessing.
Maia said quietly.
“I am not a sword master, but I know that your swordsman is essentially dragon-repelling.”
It was natural.
A sword master’s swordsmanship is determined by the life he has accumulated throughout his life.
Take the teachings of the Sword Emperor.
Together they slashed the seven dragons
and came against the Seven Dragons.
Looking at Limon’s activities over the past hundreds of years, it was impossible not to know that his swordsman’s sword was at odds with that of a dragon.
And that also meant that Limon’s sword and dragon psionics could never harmonize.
“Before that, there would have been no problems.”
“You must have been able to overwhelm the dragon psionic with your swordsmanship accumulated over hundreds of years and even control it through the Seven Arcs.”
“But now your dragon psionics have become too strong.”
Embers thrown into the sea are extinguished.
Just like a bowl of water on a volcano has no effect.
Even if they are at odds with each other, if one side is too overwhelmingly strong, it will be difficult for even a collision to occur.
But what if the two are alike?
Or rather, what if the correlation of power is reversed?
Even then, will the sword doctor and the dragon psionic be calm without colliding with each other?
“I will ask.”
to know the answer.
Maia bowed her head again.
And with his lips pressed against Limon’s ear.
whispered languidly.
“Swordsmith, how much lust do you feel for me right now?”
it’s so unexpected
shocking and disappointing.
Listen to Maia’s question.
Limon opened his mouth after a short silence.
“…doctor, that’s sexual harassment.”
“I didn’t mean to be sarcastic. It is only natural that you are attracted to us as we are to you.”
On the topic that made them fight over the bride position.
Maia did not bother to criticize Limon’s behavior of mixing flesh with other princesses to his heart’s content.
From body odor to body temperature.
The seven princesses are attracted to everything about him.
As Limon’s dragon psionics grew stronger, the urge also became stronger.
However, to put it the other way around, it also means that Limon, implicitly, felt a deep attraction to the seven princesses.
Because that’s what resonance is.
It’s not particularly strange.
Whether it’s a worm that finds a mate with hormones.
Whether it’s a beast that wants a stronger seed.
Or a person who is attracted to the background of wealth or appearance.
The instinct to find someone who has what you want is something that all living things are born with.
In that sense, it is natural for Limon, who has dragon psionics, and the seven princesses to feel each other as a ‘mate’.
Maia spoke clearly as a member of the council before being a princess.
But…
“What I want to confirm is whether you feel an uncontrollable desire beyond your attraction to us.”
“I’ve acted a little bit like an asshole, but not to the point where I’m in heat with someone I don’t even care about.”
“Then, what about the person you like?”
“…what does it mean?”
“It means that you have never felt excessive impulses towards a princess you have already had a relationship with.”
“…”
“For example, after coveting your body for days and days, you are not satisfied and feel a stronger desire.”
startled
Li Qingyu, who was behind, trembled.
“Or to the point of mixing flesh without the knowledge of the other princesses during the meeting of the seven dragons.”
dreaming
In the middle of Limon’s raised eyebrows.
“Unlike you, the swordsman who lived a stoic life until now.”
in a soft tone.
Maia pointed out.
Whether you’re busy saving the world.
Whether it’s to avoid creating weaknesses.
Limon has been living away from women for the past tens or hundreds of years, let alone making any special lovers.
I wondered if it was normal for him to mix his body with the princesses he hadn’t even made a marriage contract with until his dragon psionic became this strong.
“The seething energy.”
“Excessive urges and lust.”
“Uncontrolled psionics.”
“If you are a swordsman, you know what all of this means.”
hear that
Limon closed his eyes.
Li Qingyu groaned.
“I can’t believe what you said, Maia…”
“I can’t believe it.”
Instead of Li Qingyu, who already knows the answer, but can’t bear to say it.
Maia revealed the diagnosis.
no one could have imagined
That’s why even Limon himself didn’t notice.
“You, Swordsman, are now showing the early symptoms of Juhwa-Ibma.”
“…”
“Is it hard to believe?”
“…no.”
quietly.
Limon shook his head.
Is it trust in the best in the world?
Or maybe it was because I wasn’t aware of it.
Looking at him who had unexpectedly accepted the fact that he would never want to believe, Maia continued.
“There must have been signs from before.”
“It was just that I used my swordsman to the limit in a fight with sword masters.”
“Since your dragon psionic has become so strong, it will eventually cause a collision with the sword.”
If I have to compare it.
When the hunter left the cat alone, it grew to the size of a tiger.
Previously, however, coexistence was possible only when hunters kept the tigers in cages and fed them.
But what if the tiger broke out of the cage?
There is only one ending.
whether the hunter catches the tiger
Whether the tiger eats the hunter
Because the house can’t be prevented from being covered in blood.
“In the end, your fate is decided.”
The best in the world who has been studying dragon psionics by using himself as a test subject, even risking his lifespan to be cut.
In other words, as an expert on psionics.
Maia said coldly.
“If you’re lucky, you’ll either die or become a disabled person.”
“…”
“And if you’re not lucky…”
She didn’t finish.
Because there was someone who intercepted the answer in the first place.
In the worst case, even losing one’s life or being crippled can only be said to be luck.
A gentle sword.
A calm swordsman.
A friendly swordsman, etc.
The ending met by several sword masters.
Also, the end of a person caught in the coin infestation is usually devastating.
Above all, the result that could lead to the worst disaster in human history in that the target was Limon, not anyone else.
The party spoke calmly.
“I’m going crazy.”
and.
Silence passed.
Even Maia, who was silently affirming.
Limondo, who has already found the answer himself.
In the midst of keeping silent as if no further words were needed.
What I heard was a quiet intellectual.
“Maia didn’t tell me the most important thing.”
Calm as always.
but in a heavy voice.
Looking at Maia with eyes that were deeper and darker than ever.
Li Qingyu asked.
“What is the way to cure Sword Gong?”
“None.”
“…!”
“It is practically impossible to solve the collision between the dragon psionic, which has become stronger than ours, and the sword master’s sword, with only medicine.”
“…”
“But…”
“But what?”
With Li Qingyu, who asked impatiently.
Received the calm Limon’s gaze.
Maia reluctantly opened her mouth.
“There are a few methods that have potential, if not medically.”
