Regressor of the Fallen Family Chapter 223

Episode 223: The moment when golden aura and red aura intersect at the center of the battlefield.

The eyes of everyone nearby turned to that place.

Ordinary soldiers might not have known it, but the leaders of both sides knew that the match between the two would lead to the outcome of this war.

And as Padric, who considered Logan at a disadvantage, there was something he believed in that was separate from his son’s plan.

‘Even if His Majesty the Swordsman wins, he will not kill Logan. Could it be that priests are really trying to kill each other?’

It will decide whether you win or lose.

Maybe I’m not fighting properly.

There was some kind of expectation.

however.

Quaaaaaaaaa!

Grab it! Boom!

Ugh.

The duel began with heavy drinking, and blood poured out from the beginning.

When Logan staggered with blood spurting from his side, the swordsman did not miss the moment and kicked Logan’s side, knocking him down.

The swordsman threw his sword without hesitation at the disciple lying on the floor, and as the sword cut through the empty ground, the golden auror aimed at the gap, creating a thin stream of blood on his neck.

bang!

After a fierce battle that took place in an instant, the priests were thrown in opposite directions.

The gazes they gave each other while trying to stop the bleeding wounds were heavy, but also extremely murderous.

A sight that makes Padrick unable to close his mouth.

“That…?!”

Fortunately, the Lewis he encountered seemed equally shocked, probably thinking the same thing.

Hehehe.

The sparks flying between their gazes were more intense than everyone except them expected, to the point where it seemed as if the cool wind passing between them was cooling off the heat.

“You’ve improved a lot.”

“Thank you, Master… Sigh!”

Kwaaaaang!

The moment I answered, a blade came aiming for that gap.

Logan reflexively struck the blade in front of him, but perhaps because he did not apply enough force, his body was pushed back and he felt a tingling pain throughout his body.

But the master’s sword had no intention of stopping.

Red aurors rushed towards Logan’s body, which was being pushed out.

There seemed to be no hesitation at all in the red beams that were targeting only the vital parts of the body.

‘Damn it!’

In order to make up for the loss of momentum, Logan had no choice but to overexert himself a bit, and the moment his will was activated, a wave of 32 layers of golden aura poured in front of him.

Kwakwakwakwakwa.

Boom!!

The power to erase all approaching swords in an instant.

However, the teacher’s red aura only faltered for a moment and did not fade at all.

The teacher let out a short exclamation and disappeared without a trace before suddenly appearing behind Logan and unleashing a storm of attacks again.

“Sigh!!”

Paba babang!

visor!

bang!

Fortunately, Logan was able to block most of the attacks and even counterattack.

This was partly due to Logan’s characteristics of surpassing the limits of his realm, but more fundamentally, it was because he was familiar with his teacher’s swordsmanship trajectory.

Skag.

Wow.

The moment the two bodies crossed, blood splattered from Logan’s arm and a scratch appeared on the swordsman’s cheek.

It was a sight that clearly showed the difference in skill between the two, but their facial expressions were the opposite.

The swordsman let out a soft sigh as he saw Logan smiling.

“As expected, you have great talent. Are you saying you remember all the tricks I showed you?”

“It was an undeserved favor. How could I forget it?”

The expressionless eyes of the swordsman wavered for an instant at the words that were not appropriate for the battlefield.

“…nonsense.”

But unfortunately for Logan, the teacher’s shaking eyes quickly regained their original position, and the teacher’s body, which had become even stronger, disappeared as if the space was shortened for an instant and appeared right in front of him.

Ugh.

As soon as Logan managed to dodge, the ground he was standing on cracked.

Cold sweat ran down Logan’s back, and for a moment, he felt as if his body had become dozens of times heavier with a force that shook the space.

‘Heavy pressure sword!’

The first technique he learned from his teacher was applying pressure to his entire body with proper killing power.

– If implemented properly, it is a talent that can be useful against opponents below a certain level. I’ll show you slowly. Concentrate!

I feel like I’m remembering the first time I was taught.

Of course, it was a different level of power than back then, but he was also different from back then.

Ugh.

A similar force spread out from Logan’s sword, offsetting the heavy pressure of the sword.

But at the same time, the burning red auror completely split the space where Logan was.

Slurp.

“hmm?!”

An afterimage that blurs without any sensation.

The swordsman intuitively knew that this was the result of the ghost shadow, the method of movement he had taught, being exercised to its full potential.

Naturally, the response was carried out quickly.

Kwaaaaang!

The red and golden auras intersect once again.

The priest’s eyes met as he touched the flashing sword.

That’s it.

“…I learned it properly.”

“Because you taught me properly.”

“Yes. That makes it even more unfortunate.”

bang!

“Oops!”

Contrary to the slightly sad look in his eyes, the swordsman’s kick to Logan’s abdomen was terrifyingly powerful.

The eyes of the swordsman who followed Logan as he bounced away were heavy, but the red aura coming out of the sword cut Logan’s whole body so quickly.

– The ultimate purpose of my martial arts is to control space. And I chose speed as that means.

A quick sword technique that clearly brings back memories of when I was taught it.

The teacher’s movements, which had become faster than before, were so powerful that they could not be blocked simply by being familiar with them.

but.

‘I still have energy.’

– Ghost Shadow is the purification of my martial arts that gave me the starting point for becoming an Auror user. It’s such a great technique that even I, who created it, think it’s a miracle.

– Don’t be conceited just because you know and master the theory, but practice swordsmanship for the rest of your life. I don’t think I’ve seen the end yet either.

Slurp.

The moment when Logan remembers his teacher’s teachings and takes a step forward.

His body split in two and two Logans swung their swords at the same time.

Chaechaechaechaeng!

bang!

“Huh?!”

Two eyes opened wide at once.

Looking at his teacher in confusion, Logan smiled bitterly inwardly.

‘relics. This is the extreme of the ghostly shadow that I realized.’

One of the reasons why I am confident that I can deal with my teacher.

but.

“It’s still rough.”

The swordsman’s new form, which was clashing swords with a sombre voice, disappeared leaving an afterimage.

Soon, an eerie red light appeared from all sides of Logan and tore through his entire body.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa!

bang!

visor!

“Ugh!”

Dozens and hundreds of sword strikes in one breath.

Even though I had already read the direction and did my best to respond, I couldn’t help but get big and small wounds all over my body.

It was the power of the swordsman’s second secret technique, the speed of sound cleavage.

Push.

Blood gushing from all over the body.

But the problem wasn’t the cut.

A moment when even your mind becomes dizzy from the accumulated shock caused by those wounds.

Logan had no choice but to use another secret move he had been saving up.

‘Damn it.’

Flashing.

The bracelet of regeneration begins to quickly heal Logan’s injuries.

“While using His Majesty’s grace like that!”

The sword wielded by the teacher with a stern expression came before my eyes again.

A body that moves instinctively.

Fortunately, perhaps because it was right after using a major technique, there were subtle gaps in the teacher’s movements.

‘relics.’

Logan’s body split in two again, and the two Logans passed by their teacher.

Skag.

The two people cross again with a faint plosive sound.

The eyes of the swordsman who was standing across from me trembled slightly.

A deep sword mark carved on his right arm.

It was the first time since the clash that I had suffered a serious injury.

But Logan felt more angry than happy about it.

A situation where priests are fighting against each other.

Why on earth do we have to be like this?

Logan spoke with his heart intact.

“Is there a reason we have to end up like this? Master, please look at the cause. Just like when we joined forces to end the civil war in the past!”

The teacher flinches at those words.

Has there been some change of heart?

Logan continued as if he had been waiting.

“Master. The king is now taking a completely wrong path…”

“I know.”

“…yes?”

“How can you not know the mistake your Majesty has done to you? But I feel like you are more dangerous than your Majesty.”

“What is that…”

“Logan. What are you planning to do after taking down His Majesty?”

“That, of course, normalizes the kingdom…”

“You don’t want to become king, do you?”

An unexpected word.

Logan’s expression hardened at that one word. “I

don’t have the heart

to…”

Before I went to the Empire, I would have been able to say that without the slightest hesitation.

But, funny enough, in the current situation, with my teacher in front of me, those words didn’t come out easily.

Although he had never thought about it before, it naturally occurred to him that if he became king, it would be much easier to prepare to stop the empire.

“…I didn’t mean to do that. Really.”

However, because of that brief hesitation, the teacher’s face had already hardened even further.

“That hesitation is your answer, and so this is my cause, Logan.”

The red thunderbolt that shot out from the teacher’s sword blew away the last remaining hope without a trace.

“Let’s end it now.”

Ugh.

With a small resonant sound, the red aura condensed closer to the blade and began to turn into red lightning.

Logan’s face, who knew its meaning better than anyone else, became tense.

‘Lightning chaser.’

The teacher’s final secret.

The most powerful technique that fully embodies Felix Esperanza’s martial arts philosophy of using the power of speed to dominate space.

In some ways, it could be said to be a desperate moment, but Logan’s eyes actually shined.

As I had imagined countless confrontations with my teacher in my head, the situation in which I had the highest chance of defeating my teacher was right now.

– The secret technique that puts all your strength into it is ultimately a double-edged sword. Never use it when you are unsure.

– me? I also find it difficult to have perfect control when using Lightning Chasing. Because it was originally that kind of technology.

A weakness that the teacher taught himself.

‘It’s such a strong technique that its weakness is that it can’t control its strength…’

It was absurd, but Logan saw the possibility of defeating his teacher in it.

‘Goes!’

The characteristics imprinted in the soul are activated, and a shining core is added to the heart’s force core.

Even though I had been practicing almost every day since my awakening as a superhuman, I still had a hard time getting used to the feeling of being elevated in an instant.

The feeling of your strength increasing and your senses expanding.

Although he felt confident that he could do anything, Logan knew that it was an illusion.

‘Even now, my abilities are at best equal to those of my teacher.’

Before the war, I thought that in this condition, I would at least surpass my teacher in basic physical abilities.

However, now that I have competed with a teacher who is truly fighting, I can see that this is not the case.

Even if his abnormal physical abilities and senses were included in his elevated level, he would barely be at a similar level to his current teacher.

Fortunately, Logan had prepared a few more moves.

‘Boots of the Wind God, Gauntlets of great strength. ‘Guardian’s pauldrons’

wow.

The special artifacts he named began to accept the Force and amplify their physical abilities.

Although they were always activated, the artifacts were temporarily sealed because it was judged that it was impossible to defeat the teacher with that much improvement in ability.

They were activated to disturb the teacher’s senses at a critical moment.

There.

‘Time acceleration.’

The natural magic built into the beloved sword Lux was activated for the first time in a long time, leading to the acceleration of consciousness.

It feels like time is speeding up several times.

Only when that feeling was added to the sense of power and elation that spread throughout his body did Logan become convinced that he had surpassed his teacher’s physical capabilities.

– Relying on artifacts will only stagnate your skills.

The teacher uses only sturdy weapons due to his stubborn ideology.

It felt like a direct challenge to the teacher’s ideas, but I couldn’t help it.

‘If we don’t do this, we have no chance of winning.’

Of course, the entire plan was not to simply defeat the teacher by improving physical abilities through the artifact.

There was a separate biggest hand prepared to counter the master’s secret technique.

Ugh.

Logan concentrated all the power of his heart’s force core on one point.

‘can do!’

Soon, it was clearly visible that the teacher, whose entire body was covered in red lightning starting from his sword, was about to begin an unbelievable acceleration.

Logan calmly swung Lux, vaguely aware of the figure of his teacher rushing in and moving irregularly in zigzags.

The golden force transformed into an aura, and soon the aura that extended along Lux’s blade turned into a strange wavelength and covered the entire area.

That’s it.

The moment the golden and red lights meet and collide, the teacher’s expression appears to be distorted.

But Logan’s expression did not waver.

‘You won’t be able to stop it. I never even told you.’

The five techniques of the divine sword and arcane, following the four techniques that cut through waves, metal, earth, and flames.

After the first three meals to cut down tangible things.

The second part of the three-way process to cut down something that exists but whose form is not specified.

‘Splitting life.’

Logan’s golden aura began to completely crush the red aura.
