“…!?”
Russell’s movements stopped abruptly at the sudden voice.
A feeling as if time had been stopped.
‘This-.’
It was definitely a voice I remembered.
I think I heard this voice the first time McRae Hughes’ ghost sword bounced off.
and-. 『Heart and eyes meet and another eye opens
, so there is nothing lacking to become the cornerstone of a new myth.』 『
For that myth, I grant you another chance.』
The voice was just that.
A voice so neutral that it is difficult to distinguish whether it is male or female.
Russell asked indifferently to that voice.
‘Are you… the Dragon God King?’
It wasn’t a question I was hoping for an answer to.
It’s just that the voice I heard somehow wasn’t one-sided.
therefore-.
“It’s a valid question, and if you have doubts, focus on it for now. Iya”
– The answer was that it was completely unexpected.
『Today’s meeting was just beyond the plan, and there will be a moment to talk about things you are curious about, not now, sometime-.』 『
You should know in advance that the present moment is not eternal.』
『 As well as the fact that this is the first and last time to give help because you met an enemy you couldn’t easily deal with.]
‘Help?’
Russell winced at the offer of help.
At that moment, a certain force begins to flow into Russell’s head.
‘-This!?’
Russell was horrified to find out the identity of that power.
A voice advised the frightened man.
“Hey. It’s a power that hasn’t been allowed to you yet. So you only have one chance, and you have to use it carefully and carefully…]
Russell asked urgently at the voice that was somehow muffled.
There were many questions, but this is the first question I should have asked at this moment.
‘How can I meet you again.’
In other words, there is always a moment to talk – because it means that there is also a way to meet again.
[…]
The voice fell silent for a moment at the question that followed.
But somehow, if I felt a subtle smile in that silence, was it Russell’s own illusion?
『…Find the dragons that are still alive and breathing in this land. Because their existence will connect you and me.”
“Young Dragon Emperor who inherited me. don’t forget The power given to you is not without cost.”
“You will become the owner and hope of all the remaining dragons in this world.”
After those words, the presence of the voice completely disappeared.

The time that felt like it stopped has also found its place.

same time.
Hughes, who had spat out words of provocation, had a bewildered expression on his face.
It has to be.
‘The air around the area…?’
The jolt of magic that drifted along the surroundings was unusual.
He did not openly show any movement, but somehow felt a frenzied force.
In addition, the fear of unknown reason starts from the tip of the toe and creeps up the spine.
Hughes did not know it, but it was fear expressed through Dragon Fear.
Presence as an apex predator reigning at the pinnacle of the species.
Its presence was so great that it was fleeting, but Hughes flinched too.
Russell’s energy, which is only 5 circles at most, makes Hughes, who has reached the level of a superman, shrink.
It’s a strange thing that has no precedent in history.
‘-Did the provocation work?’
The presence of violent magical power flowing through Russell’s whole body made him wonder if his provocation had been eaten.
However, that didn’t seem to be the case either.
Because Russell’s eyes floating in the sky were too quiet to consider that.
The changed appearance and atmosphere were also unusual.
‘Clothes and wings made of flame, a pair of horns of different colors, and bright yellow eyes?’
Maybe that’s originality magic or something.
and-.
The biggest problem was not the sudden change in Russell’s appearance, nor the sudden feeling of fear.
The real problem was his sword.
‘Why is the yogi…’
Suddenly, the yogi in his beloved sword was disappearing.
No, it wasn’t just Yogi that was disappearing.
Pusssut-.
The sword body was being scattered from its tip into powder.
It wasn’t that fast.
However, if left as it is, it is clear that not only Yogi but also the sword itself will disappear.
For a while, I want to put on a look of bewilderment at the series of things I have never experienced before.
As if I noticed something.
Hughes gnashed his teeth.
‘Do you have something that can block and nullify the magic sword or artifact?’
Hughes, unaware of the details, had no choice but to think so.
Hagiya, the kid in front of me is the youngest disciple that the handsome Yeomtapju year cherishes.
There was nothing strange about having at least one such item.
‘The last time’s repulsive force must have been because of that.’
When I thought that way, the situation made sense. Of course, it was full of errors from beginning to end.
Is there any reason not to catch the error?
While looking at the sword body, about one-fifth of which had already disappeared, he suddenly threw away the ghost sword.
With Changg-!
The ghost sword that bounced off the floor tumbled across the floor terribly.
thump thump-.
He moved both fingers.
An aura began to dwell on the fingers sharpened like a falcon’s claws.
Woo woo woo woo-.
Sword masters were literally the ones who reached the level of being superhuman with a single sword, but-.
Putting down the sword did not mean that their combat power was completely lost.
Of course, the fighting power of the main body would be reduced by a factor.
‘I can only deal with one bug, so what’s the point?’
The unknown fear that I felt a moment ago?
It wouldn’t have been an illusion.
Because the senses of being a master were just as sharp.
But Hughes didn’t think it originated with Russell.
‘It’s probably because the ghost sword was scattered.’
He threw it away casually, but it was a favorite bottle he had been using for years.
right at that moment.
“Suck!”
Russell drew in a breath.
The sky parted.
Kwurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrring!
Five streams of lightning strike the earth!
The lightning bolts that twisted around and ran toward the ground were interlocked at one point.
Transformed into the shape of a giant hammer.
Thunder Giant’s Hammer.
(Mjöllnir of Thunder Giant).
The 5th circle’s top-level lightning strike magic, which was said to be comparable in power to the 6th circle, clearly took on its form.
pure white light.
The heat enough to burn down a forest with just the sparks that jumped out was concentrated on one point.
“Where!”
As if to respond, Hughes wrapped an aura all over his body.
Although the method used was different, the source of the aura used by the swordsman was also mana.
Depending on how you use it, of course it blocks magic!
Quadduk!
Acceptance was also possible.
The thunderbolt and the red aura collided.
The amount of light that would make you blind for an instant covers the whole area, and at the same time, break-even liquid!
A sharp crackling sound rang out.
Hughes unfurled his secret sword using his fingers, not a sword.
The big sword, écarlate.
The flying sword Rosso (Red).
Left and right (left and right).
Riding on both hands, different types of non-sword techniques spewed out.
The moment when Russell hit the air!
flutter!
Spreading the wings of flame rising from behind, Russell’s model flew upward.
The two secret swords that arrived there belatedly collided.
bang!
Even if the reaction was only half a beat late, that secret sword would have cut the chest and waist for a long time.
Overcoming his fear of death, Russell cast the next spell.
There was a ‘one move’ received from Eumseong, but it could not be abused recklessly.
‘You only have one chance!’
What I had to do now was the preparatory work to turn that one chance into a moment of ‘certain victory’.
‘Let’s not be impatient.’
It is true that the time limit for full tolerance is shorter than for partial tolerance.
However, if you are buried in that shortcoming and make up your mind in a hurry, even what you can do will fail.
Collecting his mind, Russell piled up the images one after another.
It takes less than 1 second to get here after dodging an attack.
Without even a moment’s hesitation, Russell released the images he had built up.
Kwalung!
What followed immediately after the thunderous roar was a superheated hell.
Part of the foot of the mountain was densely covered with flames, leaving no space to step on.
The hotly heated earth blew out the heat without rest.
Due to the heated heat, the density of the surrounding air rapidly contracts and begins to distort.
“You’re scattering your strength in all directions when it’s not enough to concentrate on one point!”
Did this McRae Hughes look so easygoing!
As he shouted, McRae Hughes roughly crossed his arms.
The wind that followed that trajectory slashed all the flames in all directions.
A storm reminiscent of Gale Storm was embodied with only the power of the body.
This is no ordinary Gale Storm.
A sword master’s aura dwells in a blizzard!
Clap, clap, clap!
The atmosphere touched by the wind cracks open, revealing its inner flesh.
number one.
After shaking off Russell’s magic with just one move, he kicked the floor at once.
bang!
“Did you think that floating in the air would make it easier to dodge my attacks?”
In an instant, he usurped the public authority of Russell, which he considered to be his own.
It rushed towards Russell at the same speed as the light beam.
“die-!”
As if he couldn’t even respond to that speed, he swung his fingers wide at Russell, who was still.
pop-.
“—!?”
At the same time, Russell, who was standing there, exploded.
No, it wasn’t Russell that exploded, it was just the elemental robe covering him.
“What-?”
The real Russell wasn’t there.
“-You tricked my senses?”
A sense of oneself as a sword master?
Surely you felt the presence of magical power?
The refractive index of the heated surface air and the reduced refractive index of light. A mirage created using two things.
The moment Chuck created an illusion through magical knowledge explodes.
Russell, who appeared on the ground before he knew it, called the real image.
Cracking earth and rising pillars of fire.
What he draws and builds up is a small-scale volcanic eruption concentrated in a single point.
Kurung Kurung -.
Along with the vibrations, parts of the earth begin to sway like waves.
The 5th circle magic, Magma Buster (Volcanic burst).
Likewise, Flare Cannon, a 5-circle magic.
The two magical formulas interlocked like gears.
clap-.
“Volcanic Cannon—!!!!”
Pillars of magma soared toward the sky like cannons.
