Episode 358 Imperial First Sword
“These lights surrounding the battlefield are neither a barrier nor a line.”
New Director Yuman spread both hands and curled the corners of his mouth.
“It’s just a light that gives strength to everyone.”
“dog sound!”
Baek Woo-jin narrowed his eyes as he saw Yu-man’s smile. Even at the end of the war, installing a light that gave strength to both sides was absolutely crazy.
However, no matter how much I looked, I could not figure out the identity of the floor covering on the battlefield.
‘What on earth are these patterns and lights?’
-I do not know. However, I don’t feel any harmful energy to humans. Only the scent of pure mana flows out.
‘I see it that way too.’
As the darkness said, unlike the white pillars where the angels were summoned, the patterns and lights on the floor did not show the obscene sacred power of Cabalon.
‘Still, it’s better to destroy it just in case.’
Even if it wasn’t harmful, there was something unsettling about Yuman’s smile. The energy of the barrier field was wrapped around the body of the Seolyounggeom and embedded into the ground with the pattern engraved on it.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
A heavy energy exploded around the blade of the Seolyeong sword stuck in the ground, and the ground split open like a rice field in a drought.
“hmm?”
Baek Woo-jin frowned. The ground was torn apart, but the white pattern on it did not disappear and remained.
“I told you. That’s not a line or a barrier. Just a bright light. “It won’t hurt either side.”
“That means it’s suspicious.”
If it had been a symbol that gave abilities advantageous to the imperial army, I would not have suspected it, but it was strange to hear that it gave strength to both sides.
“There is no need to be suspicious. The Lord Kavaron is gracious. He gives strength equally to those who doubt him.”
“When did Cabalon become the main god? And the unclean guy who became a god with human blood is benevolent? “You will freeze to death.”
Yuman’s expression, which had been smiling softly, cracked at Baek Woojin’s snort.
“gibberish! Kabaron is the one who achieved enlightenment and ascended to heaven on his own! “Where did I hear such nonsense!”
“Ask your benevolent god directly. “Did he become a god by attaining enlightenment or did he become a god by bathing in human blood?”
“If you mess with that snout one more time, right away…”
Yuman’s eyes turned red and he opened his hand, and a bright white light flickered in his grasp. I felt an enormous energy that was on a different level from Murian.
“No. “It’s not my turn to step forward.”
He folded his hands back and stepped back.
“As I heard, you’re good at provoking one thing. “I would like to go along with that provocation, but there is someone prepared to deal with you.”
“what?”
“Come out.”
At Yuman’s gesture, an old knight wearing silver armor walked out from behind the collapsed castle wall.
His red hair has lost its color, and a black long sword is hanging around his waist. The eyes were sharp, but they looked soft due to age, and the mouth was as heavy as a megalith.
Just by looking at Nogisa’s appearance, you could tell that he was an outstanding warrior, but the spirit he exuded was on a whole different level.
It gave off such an overwhelming energy that I couldn’t even think of the martial arts people I had met so far.
‘Duke Alonso. The Empire’s First Sword.’
It looks exactly the same as what I heard from Mayor Caelak before. That man was Duke Alonso van Cardien, the greatest sword in the empire and the greatest sword in the continent.
“I didn’t expect much because the black swordsman was young, but he was amazing. “That rumor doesn’t even explain half of what you are.”
Alonso narrowed his wrinkled presbyopia and spread his hands.
“Thank you for giving me the opportunity to fight such a great swordsman. New Director.”
“May Kabalon bless you.”
Alonso bowed his head and Yuman put his hands together to receive the greeting.
“Tsk…”
Baek Woo-jin clicked his tongue as he looked at Yuman and Alonso.
‘Absolute Pole…’
I tried to finish it quickly no matter who came out, but Alonso was a martial artist who had reached the absolute pole like he had not long ago.
However, his eyes are clear. I couldn’t figure out exactly if he was being manipulated like other swordsmen of the Imperial Ten Swords or if he was in his right mind.
-I don’t know what Yuman will do. Show your best from the beginning and end it in a short fight.
‘That’s right.’
I felt like I had to activate my divine magic from the beginning, attack, and end it as quickly as possible.
“I will not step forward until the battle between you and Duke Alonso is over. “I promise.”
Yuman grinned and raised both hands as if he had no intention of fighting.
“You put on a human mouth and say nothing but bullshit.”
-What is this guy planning?
‘We can’t just move on and leave that dangerous guy behind.’
I turned around and sent a warning message to Servik, who was looking this way.
[If Yuman moves, please change into the main body and stop him.]
[I understand. Don’t worry.]
Servik nodded. Even if you mess around, you are the one who protects what you say. It was best to trust him for now.
‘Still, we must be sure to prepare.’
Baek Woo-jin snapped his fingers and opened the door to the spirit world. The space behind splits in four directions, and Ignis and Sulbing Leochrome appear in the real world in their original forms.
[Kyaoooo!]
[Kyaoooo!]
Ignis and Sulbing roared at the same time, showing off their majestic presence.
“I heard you only deal with flame dragons?”
“Huh, all the Four Great Spirits?”
Yuman widened his eyes with a puzzled expression and Alonso let out a laugh.
“The more you can hide, the better.”
I turned around and made eye contact with the spirits.
“Ignis Sulbing Leo deals with the angels, and Chrome erases the symbols on the floor.”
[Croar!]
[Cow!]
[Cow!]
Ignis and Sulbing Leo laughed and flew up to deal with the angel, as if telling them to prepare a snack later, while Chrome stamped his foot to erase the pattern on the floor.
“I think we’re ready, so let’s get started.”
“All right.”
Alonso pulled back his cloak and Baek Woo-jin nodded.
-He is a strong man who has reached absolute heights even though he did not receive the power of Kabalon. You can’t think like other guys.
‘I know.’
Alonso’s strength was similar to his before reaching transcendence. It was clear that he was stronger than anyone he had faced so far, but he couldn’t take his time because of Yuman and the floor mat.
Quaaaaa!
Baek Woo-jin raised Rasadum’s aura to its peak without showing signs of impatience and activated the divine magic.
A gray flame that seemed to have been burned to ashes burned on the blade of the Seolyeonggeom, giving it absolute power.
“It’s overwhelming sword power! “I’m lucky to be able to fight a strong person like you in my later years!”
Alonso clearly felt different from the other Imperial Ten Swords, but he couldn’t ignore it.
“I will go.”
Baek Woo-jin kicked the ground while simultaneously using Rasadum’s Aura and the Holy Spirit of the Holy Spirit.
Through the narrowing vision, I can see Alonso’s excited eyes with his long sword raised. He fired a black bullet towards his eye.
Wooooow!
Alonso burned the golden sword on his long sword and struck the center of the black king bullet.
Kwaaaaaaaa!
The Black King’s bullet and Alonso’s sword strike collided, sending a terrifying shock wave through the son-in-law. The bodies of the angels who were wandering around exploded mercilessly.
“My bones are shaking!”
“I will finish it quickly.”
Baek Woo-jin pushed Alonso with Seolyeonggeom and struck his neck with the black sword with his left hand.
“I can’t finish it when I haven’t even enjoyed it yet!”
Alonso laid his long sword on its side and unfolded a golden sword. The strong energy covering his sword spread out in the shape of a fan, blocking all the sword strikes of Seolyeonggeom and Darkness.
“I’ll hold on with all my might!”
At the same time as the declaration-like words, a golden river of energy wrapped around Alonso’s long sword and his armor. It looks like golden waves are circulating around him.
“I’ll go this time!”
Alonso lowered his posture as if he was going to sweep the floor. The extended sword strike was as sharp as a lion’s fang.
Cheaaa!
Baek Woo-jin drew a wide-open sword, knocked away Alonso’s sword, and then launched a Suwangmu Unwoojang. A sword as strong as an iron plate hit Alonso on the shoulder.
Boom!
The moment the cloud field fell, the golden river soared like a shield over Alonso’s shoulder and deflected the field of fire.
“My Calphons Auror is alive. “You can attack and defend freely.”
Alonso came flying out with a grin. He strikes down the long sword in his hand and applies pressure with the force wrapped around his body.
Kyaggyaggyak!
Baek Woo-jin struck down Alonso’s sword with his sword and the armored Kang-gi with his Seolyeong sword.
bang! Quaaaang!
With a young sword strike, Rasadum’s Aura and the Holy Spirit of Great Power unleashed a wave of strong energy that covered Alonso’s entire body.
“Big!”
Alonso stumbled like a drunk and was pushed back mercilessly.
-The power of your sword strikes has increased. And that’s incomparable….
‘Overflowing with auras.’
Baek Woo-jin slowly turned his eyes and looked at the floor. Perhaps because of the pattern on the floor, my whole body is overflowing with power and auras are overflowing as if they will explode.
-Because of that floor?
‘As Yuman said, it seems to be a symbol that gives strength.’
-Do you feel anything strange?
‘There is no unclean energy yet. It’s true that I’m anxious.’
I looked up at Yuman, who was floating in the air. He just watched the battle between himself and Alonso with his arms crossed.
‘As expected, I don’t have time to waste time.’
Something didn’t feel right. Covering the aura of Rasadum with the fighting spirit of the Balrog, he jumped towards Alonso.
Cheeeeee!
Alonso pushed back the long sword aimed at the neck with Baek Bing’s crown.
‘now!’
Taking advantage of the fact that Alonso’s movement was delayed due to the frost of the white ice, he struck the darkness.
Whoops!
Alonso created a strong sword like an ax blade above his shoulder and blocked the blade of darkness.
Sigh!
Baek Woo-jin did not stop. By drawing a time gap between Seolyeonggeom and Darkness, he put pressure on Alonso.
By circulating the Auras of Rasadum and the Auras obtained through the Northern Myeong Art, he crushed Alonso’s Calfons Aura.
“Big!”
Alonso could not hold on and was pushed back in a daze. His neatly trimmed hair was loose and fluttering.
Although the spirit that reached the absolute peak was the same, there was a big difference in body, energy, and characteristics.
“Young friend, I can’t be defeated. “Then…”
Alonso rotated the blazing energy above his long sword. The golden river rose like a waterspout.
The huge river shimmers and compresses like a haze. His golden strength wrapped around the blade of his long sword without a single gap.
‘That’s it!’
Baek Woo-jin swallowed dry saliva. When I saw the river compressed to its extreme, an alarm bell rang in my mind that it was dangerous.
Although it was small in size, it contained fearsome strength. If you also bring down your sword, everyone on the battlefield will die.
“This is my best sword, Martial Spirit.”
Alonso strikes down the raised sword. This seemingly ordinary long sword had a powerful energy that could split the world in half.
‘It can’t be avoided.’
If you dodge, all the Allied Forces behind you will be wiped out. It had to be stopped at all costs.
Chiri ririn!
Baek Woo-jin raised Seolyeonggeom upward and flipped the black sword to his right side. He was clad in the aura of the polar Rasadum, and placed the Spirit of Darkness and the Beast King on his Seolyeongsword.
‘Sin sal and yam.’
They unleashed both at the same time with the strongest sword currently available.
Quaaaaa!
Shinsal splits the sky and yam tears the earth. The absolute sword paths harmonized crosswise, creating a wave of tremendous strength.
Wow!
Baek Woo-jin’s absolute slash and Alonso’s final sword clashed with martial spirits.
The earth split apart and the sky collapsed due to the enormous impact. Everything around the two turned into powder and scattered.
Quick!
Baek Woo-jin gritted his teeth. He raised the aura of the lower and middle battles to the bottom and accelerated Seolyeonggeom and Darkness.
Sigh!
The two swords, which were brought down to the end, separated the martial soul’s golden steel sword and long sword.
“Huh…”
Alonso let out a sigh of astonishment through the gap in the torn river.
Wow!
The Calonso Aura that covered Alonso’s armor faded away, and red blood spurted from his chest.
“Wow!”
“The Empire’s First Sword has been broken!”
“The Commander-in-Chief has cut down Duke Alonso!”
“Our victory is just around the corner!”
Baek Woo-jin looked up at Yoo Man, listening to the cheers of the Allied Forces full of hope.
“Now it’s your turn. Come down.”
