#488. … Who is it?
* * *
Turn back time a bit.
Rushmore City.
No, exactly where Rushmore City was.
It’s been a long time since I’ve been there with my arms folded and silently watching the city go away.
Limon suddenly opened his mouth.
“What is the evacuation situation?”
“We have contacted the Continental Guard and have confirmed that no one remains within 10 miles of the area.”
Although there are still bloodstains on the bandages.
Limon murmured softly at the words of Ellis, who commanded the Golden Dragon clan to finally finish the evacuation.
“You managed to do something like a connection.”
“The chief of the Continental Guard was more cooperative than I thought, so it wasn’t that difficult.”
“That kid is a guy who pushes ahead with whatever he decides to do.”
If I had insisted on dancing with the wolves to the end, I would have wasted a lot of time.
It was fortunate that time was saved thanks to the active cooperation.
Of course, the most helpful were the ancient spirits who reduced the number of citizens to evacuate by moving the entire city.
Anyway, thanks to that, I was finally able to start the rescue operation.
“You guys, get out of here, too.”
“…”
“…I guess he has no intention of stepping down.”
“Yes, we will stay until the princess returns.”
Even if they couldn’t follow her into the dungeon, it was their duty to be the first to greet Charlotte when she returned.
Limon sighed as he saw Elise talking calmly.
And he said it out loud.
“At most, 10 minutes. If I don’t come back inside, evacuate.”
“I don’t like it.”
“Shouldn’t you say that you knew even if it was a lie?”
“Don’t be too demanding.”
Guess who isn’t close to the princess?
They say they don’t know Ilguian.
Even though he shook his head excitedly at the sight of Elise talking brazenly, Limon eventually took a step forward.
Where the old town originally stood.
However, after Rushmore City moved entirely, leaving only the underground structures behind.
Heading towards the entrance of the dungeon, which is now left alone on one side of the sewer that has been pierced like an abandoned ruin from a long time ago.
dismissal.
Maybe because he sensed Limon’s approach.
The entrance of the dungeon that shows signs of closing gradually.
Still, he wasn’t nervous.
I just put my hand on my waist.
Sureureung.
‘It’s been 32 years.’
draw a sword
Aiming at the dungeon with the tip of a sword.
Limon took a quiet breath.
Around the time the Iron Age opened and dungeons first appeared.
Of course, Limon was among those who went to investigate the dungeon.
However, because the entrance was closed just by approaching, Limon could not properly investigate the dungeon.
But that didn’t mean he gave up on the investigation.
I tried to enter the dungeon in my own way and actually succeeded.
One problem.
That success came at a huge cost.
After that, sword masters were banned from entering dungeons by law.
Limon, who had no interest in dungeons in the first place, readily accepted the bill.
Thanks to that, it became established theory and common knowledge that sword masters could not enter dungeons.
but this moment.
Limon was trying to enter the dungeon again after 32 years.
‘I don’t know why the dungeon shuts up when it sees me, but…’
The entrance has already disappeared.
Even so, I traced the twisted traces of the space that I could feel finely.
Limon smiled coldly.
“You should know that you can’t stop the Sword Master just by fiddling with space.”
『Yam Dragon Kill Sword Forbidden

.
with a soft whisper.
The moment Limon held out his sword.
A huge hole had been punched in the middle of the void.
Unlike the originally neat dungeon entrance, it was twisted and distorted in a mess, rather than a hole, a crack.
It’s like tearing the fabric.
It penetrated the whole space where the dungeon existed and forcibly connected it to the present world.
It was a natural result.
A sword master is an existence that can cut anything.
In particular, the distortion of space had no meaning in front of Limon, who had limitedly mastered the Sword Demon’s swordsmanship, which had penetrated even the walls of this world and the other world.
It was for this reason that the Demon God who escaped by circling the earth 37 times was eventually captured and killed by Limon.
Right after that, the scenery inside the dungeon was revealed through the cracks in space.
Koo Goo Goo!
A huge vibration spreads.
Cracks started from the cracks and spread out, engulfing the surrounding space.
‘As expected, the collapse has begun.’
Limon clicked his tongue.
Maybe it’s because they forcibly made a hole in the distorted space.
When forcibly breaking through a closed entrance.
The dungeon collapses like a balloon pierced by a needle and then disappears.
In this age of iron, where each dungeon is regarded as a treasure trove, it was a huge loss more than the entire evaporation of a gold mine.
The bigger problem is that the aftermath extends to reality.
When Limon entered the dungeon 32 years ago, the entire space within a radius of several kilometers evaporated.
It’s fortunate that I deliberately chose a secluded dungeon.
If it was an urban area, an entire city would have been blown away.
That’s why everyone, from politicians to the people, united together and blocked Limon’s entry into the dungeon.
Even if it had nothing to do with Princess Gold Dragon, it was only natural that Dance with the Wolves would foam at the mouth and try to stop Limon.
However, as long as Rushmore City has been moved in its entirety, there is no reason to worry about the aftermath.
Limon immediately went into the rift.
in the light of past experience.
The remaining time until the dungeon collapsed was only about 10 minutes.
In the meantime, I didn’t have time to waste even a second to get to the 100th floor and save Charlotte.
stop!
But right after stepping into the dungeon.
Limon stopped walking.
‘This…?’
Is it the aftermath of space piercing?
It wasn’t just because of the scenery of the dungeon that started to collapse in a mess.
It was because the boundaries of space collapsed and he felt something in his super senses, which enabled him to vaguely feel the depths of the dungeon.
A great force collides.
The borders of the world are shaking.
The feeling that life is gradually fading away.
Sensing this, Limon stiffened his face and raised his sword in reverse.
Then, he slashed the sword at his feet.
Kwaaang!
collapsing floor.
penetrating space.
From the 1st floor to the 100th floor.
Tear apart the distortion of the space that was made up of 99 layers like a piece of paper.
Shortly after entering the dungeon, less than 5 seconds passed, breaking through the ceiling of the 100th floor and falling into the deepest part of the dungeon.
Limon flew away like lightning.
To block the greatsword that the monster clad in black armor was wielding at Charlotte.
Kaaaaang!
The moment you encounter the sword.
What is delivered is a terrible shock.
He manages to escape the immense power that almost broke his wrist, and exquisitely returns the sword to target the opponent’s vitals.
After making the monster with the two-handed greatsword retreat.
Limon quietly opened his mouth.
“Sorry for being late, sir.”
“…I’ve been waiting for you.”
Unexpectedly frank hospitality, unlike the always arrogant Charlotte.
But Limon thought.
that he deserved to wait for himself.
From the corners of her mouth to her suit, her figure was stained with blood and wounds.
There were clear traces of fractures in dozens of places, from fists to arms and shoulders, as if they were crushed by a landslide.
Most of all, Yonghwa’s psionic aura began to weaken as Yonghwa naturally loosened up and lost his usual arrogant spirit.
So far, how much she has been fighting hard.
how serious it is now.
Because you made it clear.
Just looking at Yuna-kyung and She-ra, lying in a dying state in the back, was like that.
“Chief, be careful. He…”
“I know.”
So it was.
The reason Limon had no choice but to focus on dealing with the monstrosity wielding a greatsword rather than immediately examining their details.
Quaang!
The moment the greatsword and the sword collided.
The sword vibrates.
A tingling hand.
The intention of bouncing down the greatsword was colorless, and the body was rather pushed backwards.
It’s not just because of the monster’s ignorant strength.
It’s because the technology that exquisitely twists the sword at the moment of collision and penetrates the impact through the sword is just as good.
so i knew
Iza is an unmistakable sword master.
A person who has reached the same level as Limon himself…
…and another fact.
That’s why I bite my teeth.
Limon swung his sword wildly.
Kang Kwaang Kwaarleung!
Lightning-like thrusts bounced off the greatsword that was swung like a windmill.
Scratching the ground, he evaded the greatsword that soared vertically from his groin by a fraction of a second, and the extended counterattack missed.
My body was pushed to the side just by deflecting and blocking the greatsword that extended as if it would cut my waist in two.
1 minute at most.
But a whopping 1 minute.
In the meantime, there were hundreds of sword attacks.
Even so, Limon, who was unable to inflict a single wound on his opponent, pulled out a sword from deep within.

The moment I lowered my sword.
The boundaries of all things are shaken.
The shock wave that followed that trajectory hit the monster before the sword.
But the monster did not escape.
Rather, he only received Limon’s sword from the front.
One step to take firmly.
A sword that falls vertically.
The moment when the swords and greatswords falling towards each other’s heads collided in the air.
– the world.
Shaked.
『Lionheart Sword Calendar

』
It’s like a bomb exploded.
A huge crater is formed.
In the midst of the already precarious buildings of the ruins city collapsing in the aftermath.
The one who was pushed out was a white-haired man.
Leaving a heavy footprint on the ground.
After taking ten steps back.
Limon barely stopped and coughed up a handful of blood.
It wasn’t just because the aftermath of the collision was so devastating that even the sword master’s body couldn’t handle it.
The shockwave from the opponent’s greatsword overpowered the shockwave he created, and it was the result of reaching his internal organs.
Still, Limon was not surprised.
Rather, it seems to be a natural result.
He just opened his mouth.
“…was it like that.”
Compared to Limon, who took ten steps back, the monster with the great sword took only three steps.
However, Limon wasn’t the only one who suffered losses.
The moment the two shock waves collided.
Of course, the monster’s greatsword was broken.
Even in the aftermath of the shock wave, Limon’s sword, which extended without concern, left a slight scratch on the monster’s helmet.
Kwajik Kwajik.
That was enough.
Cracks that started from scratches spread throughout the helmet.
In the end, it was hard to reveal the monster’s face through the shattered helmet like glass.
“…Who are you?”
already convinced.
Nevertheless, Limon gritted his teeth at the scene he had no choice but to confirm.
That the opponent is a sword master?
Although surprising in itself, it was acceptable.
The Sword Emperor was like that in the past.
Just like Black and Swordsman did.
A sword master is an existence that can be born with just one’s own efforts.
Even if the sword tower disappeared and he stopped raising disciples, there was no law saying that a new sword master would not be born.
The problem is the opponent’s swordsmanship.
No, it was a swordsman to be exact.
A sword master is an existence that can cut anything.
However, it is the sword teeth that have been accumulated throughout life that decide what to cut.
Even if there are thousands of sword masters, it is close to impossible to perfectly master each other’s sword intentions.
Compared to the original, most of the yam dragon slashing techniques that Limon had been training for hundreds of years were only imitations.
so in the past.
even at the present time.
even in the distant future.
There was only one sword master who could cut the borders of the world so perfectly.
There are 13 sword masters in history.
Among them, the one who reached the highest level with pure power and destructive power.
Because of the sword that shook even the world, he was a swordsman who broke his sword even though he was a swordsman when he did his best.
That’s why I was always teased by Limon.
Even in the final battle, he fought to the death for 10 days, slicing through 100 swords, and eventually lost even the last sword and met his death.
“Who made you this way?”
Black full body armor.
A particularly large and powerful body.
A rich beard like that of a lion.
Even the orange hair mixed with red and gold.
The opponent looked the same as he did 600 years ago, except for the pale complexion of a corpse and the black tattoo on his ear.
The greatest king who laid the foundations of the British Empire.
The one and only friend in his life who was able to share an equal friendship with himself, the absolute.
“Answer me Richard!!!”
Seeing the sword king Richard I return from the dead, Limon let out a loud roar.
