#845. then stop it

Swordsman Adolf.
One of the very few disciples who was not excommunicated by Limon because he died while fighting against the swordsman who caused the world war.
However, as a result of being used by a resurrected demon in Russia a few months ago, he confronted the Seven Dragons.
The Sword Master who was defeated by Yekathrice and Ainsha.
But he was just defeated.
Not dead.
If you decide to run away, even the same sword master is difficult to catch, so what is a sword master?
after a fierce struggle.
The moment I finally got into trouble.
Adolf fled without hesitation.
It was Limon’s teaching that in the first place, in order to win, run away at any cost to survive.
Of course, the price was high.
That was the empty left shoulder.
Yekathrice and Ainsha’s desperate attack took away one of his arms.
So it was.
Why did Lee Chun-gi calmly open his mouth?
“Honestly, it’s a bit unexpected.”
“What?”
“You’ve already returned to the front.”
“Ah, because of the words that the treatment will take several months?”
“Was the divine lord’s assessment wrong?”
“It is not wrong. I just underestimated the sword master’s resilience.”
Adolf laughed.
To be honest, it wasn’t something to blame the Holy Lord.
From Gandhi to Vlad Joan of Arc, etc.
The divine lord, who healed the severely injured sword master many times, is the world’s best healer and at the same time an expert on sword masters.
Because Adolf’s condition was so serious that she asserted that it would take several months for her to recover.
Nevertheless, there was one thing that allowed Adolf to recover so quickly.
“Of course, the virtue of the sword I’ve newly realized is also great.”
“Are you a swordsman who cuts time?”
“It’s thanks to you two fries.”
A sword master who eventually learned how to cut through time in order to confront the two princesses who drew the power of the time dragon in their veins.
Adolf said with a deeper smile.
“That’s why I always wanted to repay you.”
There was no need to ask what the answer was.
behind oneself.
In other words, Adolf’s gaze toward the place where he felt the presence of a frantic fight with the sword spirit and Ainsha Yekatrice gave all the answers.
So Lee Chun-gi turned his gaze to his shoulder.
“Including the debt on that left arm?”
“Oh, this is fine.”
“Did you say it was okay?”
“It’s the same as me blowing off the arm of the silver fryer.”
Of course, considering that he exchanged his perfect arm for a splash mixed with the blood of a dirty dragon, it was a huge loss.
After saying that I can go over that much generously.
Adolf erased his smile.
“I can never forgive you for spoiling my bride’s chastity.”
“…I’m asking just in case, but by that priest, do you mean swordsmith?”
“Sure. Who else would dare be my mate if not someone as perfect as Rin?”
“…”
With the long-cherished wish of making all mankind into sword masters.
To that end, a handsome boy who burns with ambition to make Limon, who can become the most perfect woman in the world, his mate.
The craziest sword master.
Looking at the sword light that everyone is talking about in unison.
Lee Cheon-gi pointed out.
“I know that the swordsman rejected you.”
“Don’t you know? There is no tree that can not be felled after 10 shots.”
“Even if I propose ten times, the swordsman will not change his mind.”
“Then you have to take it a hundred times or a billion times.”
“But what if the swordsman doesn’t change his mind?”
“I have to force myself to change.”
“…”
“Of course, I’ll have to deal with the fries that possessed Rin first.”
After dealing with the dirty mongrel.
Defeat Limon with his own sword.
Forced into a woman.
Lock yourself in a place that only you know.
Even if you commit a hundred years or a thousand years, until your heart breaks, you can make her your own bride.
According to Limon’s personality, once he had children, he would never give up on them no matter how much he hated himself.
At the end of keeping silent while watching Adolf spit out crazy sounds with a single smile on his face.
Lee Chun-gi opened his mouth.
“Then I cannot let you go behind here.”
“Are you trying to stop me?”
“yes.”
“Um… what a coincidence.”
To stop the Sword Master alone.
Adolf did not laugh at Lee Chun-gi, who said something that would be ridiculed even by a princess who had completed the dragon’s blood.
Instead, it seems to be very polite.
He only muttered while fiddling with the blood on his uniform.
“I’m about to cut you down a while ago.”
“…Have you met another me?”
“yes. It was really annoying. It’s like I can’t communicate, and it’s like doing all sorts of trivial tricks.”
He mistook himself for being a member of the Seven Dragons.
As a result, he recalled the Yi Chun-gi of the parallel world, which he cut down with the elites of the Infinity Guild.
Adolf laughed.
“Yeah, but it was at the level of a flying insect.”
Adolf’s assertion with ridicule.
Lee Chun-gi did not deny it.
Because he knew too.
No matter how many skills he acquired through 『Technological Replication』, most of them were miscellaneous.
That he could never be the opponent of a sword master because he didn’t even have his own unique skills, let alone absolute skills.
In fact, even though he treated himself in another world with his guild members, only a few drops of blood splattered.
The fact that Adolf didn’t have a scratch on his clothes, let alone a scar, was proving that fact.
“Honestly, I have no interest in you. So, if you run away now, I won’t bother killing you.”
Absolutely pure disregard.
Although the name is one of the absolutes of this era.
At the words of Adolf, who treats him like a flying fly in his ear.
Lee Chun-gi shook his head.
“I’m sorry, but I cannot accept that offer.”
“Hmm, you are an idiot who puts his life on the pride of you in this world or in another world.”
“It’s not because of pride. Because stopping you is my job.”
After answering calmly.
Add a soft word.
“―The sword-gwang death penalty.”
Is it because of that unexpected title?
Adolph blinked.
Then, as if he had heard something really bizarre, he stared blankly at Lee Chun-gi, and then suddenly asked.
“Why are you calling me the death penalty?”
“Why do you think?”
“…”
Hearing the answer, he stood in front of Adolf, who made a face of even more incomprehension.
slowly.
Reach out to the side.
Then, a sword appeared from the space.
Although it is not as flashy or perfect as the sword Arondite that was broken in the final battle with Limon in the past.
But he grabbed the sword, which was neat and hard enough to hold and wield.
quietly open your mouth
“Now that it has come to this, I will formally introduce it again, albeit belatedly.”
“….”
“My name is Lee Cheon-gi.”
Since the establishment of the World Federation, he has been a member of the Seven Dragons…
No, the reason he has fully cooperated with Limon since then.
Even though he was busy with all sorts of things after the fight at the Blue House, Limon visited him regularly and he had to keep quiet for several months.
This is the reason why he must stop the black light at this spot.
Another reason to stop it.
he said calmly.
“He is the one who will inherit the yam dragon slaughter sword.”
After the sword tower was closed.
The first and last apprentice to officially learn swordsmanship from Limon.
At the same time, seeing the last priest aiming a sword at him, the sword light blinked again with a bewildered face.
“…Learned swordsmanship from Rin? A yam-killing sword?”
“If you’re asking if you studied with a swordsman, yes.”
“Hmm…”
Adolf narrowed his eyes.
And the sword Lee Chun-gi was holding.
standing posture.
body and skeleton.
After skimming through it one more time, he nodded slowly.
“Okay, then I understand why you call me death penalty.”
First of all, did you judge that Lee Chun-gi’s words were true?
Adolf stopped talking.
But that didn’t mean that I had a crush on him.
“But do you know this?”
“What are you talking about?”
“You still don’t deserve to call me the death penalty.”
“…”
“I have no intention of accepting as a priest an idiot who doesn’t even realize his swordsmanship.”
Adolf was sneering.
Because you could tell by looking at it.
That this one-eyed person in front of him was not a sword master.
And I don’t know if it’s another death penalty.
From his point of view, Lee Cheon-gi was just one of the many failures that Limon taught but failed to realize the swordsmanship in the end.
“It doesn’t matter. Whether the brother-in-law admits it or not doesn’t change the fact that I learned the sword from the Master.”
“… I guess you don’t understand.”
So it was.
Why did Adolf coldly shoot Lee Chun-gi, who was standing in his way as a failure?
“Don’t you dare pretend to be friends with Rin, you stupid bastard with no talent.”
Could it be contempt stemming from the belief that only sword masters are perfect human beings?
Or is it jealousy for learning the sword from the teacher who should be her bride?
Or is it both?
Unlike before, when he was ignoring him, Lee Chun-gi was not shaken even when he saw Adolf who was blatantly murderous.
Rather, he calmly agreed.
“You’re a chaff with no talent… You are not wrong.”
I fought Limon.
Because I also learned the sword myself.
Lee Chun-gi was well aware of how absurd being a sword master was.
The fact that even himself, who is the absolute leader of this era, is only a half-penny in the eyes of a sword master.
“But even I can at least prevent the death penalty.”
“…okay?”
Nevertheless, looking at Lee Chun-gi, who aimed a sword at himself without retreating an inch.
With one hand on the hilt.
Adolf said coldly.
“Then stop it.”
A priest who does not know the subject.
I will discipline you as the death penalty.
Pay the price with your life.
Lee Chun-gi did not hesitate to follow Adolf’s teachings, which exuded an outright killing.
Just quietly raise your sword.
I just aimed at a handsome boy in a military uniform.
That’s how…
Although they were taught by the same teacher, the sword fight between the one-armed death penalty and the one-eyed priest on opposite sides marked the beginning.
* * *
In thick fog.
he was thinking
Deep, heavy, complex and quiet.
He had been silent for a long time before he opened his mouth.
“…is it.”
difficult acceptance.
bold confirmation.
clear understanding.
He slowly nods his head and opens his mouth again in the complex shaking that is transmitted even to his dry heart.
“After all, our failure was predestined.”
[■■■■.]
“Thanks for the advice.”
and.
voice returning.
Maybe it’s because of contacting in this fog through various expedients, but it’s so familiar that it resonates like an echo, but it’s unfamiliar.
To the person who advised you.
he thanked
If you think about it, it’s so obvious that you should have realized it sooner.
However, I had no idea how much longer it would have taken me to realize it had the other person not provided me with a completely different perspective.
[■■■■■.]
“…what do you want?”
But nothing is free in this world.
To some extent, Ruler asked straight-forward to those words.
And after having a long and short talk with the other person.
After thinking for a while, I agreed.
“Is it really the next best thing?”
I can’t say it’s the best.
But at least it’s not the worst.
After thinking deeply about which one to choose.
The true absolute of the Iron Age, who is said to be the strongest among all lords because he can win no matter how many times he fails.
The regressive lord, Ruler, made a decision.
