Episode 138:
I heard a voice.
“so? what do you see?”
“Are you in already?”
Anneline said she could come in and out of this space.
She bluffed and said ‘freely’ once every fortnight.
So, in the time within this space, it was possible to move once a month.
It was ambiguous to say that it was free, but Vinchen did not bother to point it out.
“Didn’t you say you could only come in once a month?”
“That’s right, but there’s something I need to check.”
“Is that the box by any chance?”
“So you see that?”
“I see.”
“Wow, it looks real.”
Anneline laughed as if dejected.
“I think you really are the [Truth Seeker] that Aslan was talking about.”
“If you see that box, are you a truth seeker?”
“huh. Aslan said so.”
“Then, didn’t you just check me in this space instead of testing me here and there?”
Anneline’s body twitched.
“Hey, I also check on my own, huh? After some verification as a dragon, huh? There is such a thing as a procedure, you know?”
“You forgot the existence of the box.”
“…no it’s not.”
“I guess that’s right.”
Vincen laughed.
Perhaps Anneline was not very interested in ‘those seeking the truth’.
So, I had completely forgotten about the existence of the ‘box’.
It was just a request from old friends for 500 years.
“You know how much you value your friends, seeing as you kept your promise for 500 years, even though you weren’t very interested in [Truthseekers]. Since ancient times, dragons have been said to be a species of faithfulness, which is very surprising.”
“Huhuhu I don’t do what I did. Thank you so much for finding out.”
“Then, what is that box that you have kept faithfully?”
Anneline, who was in a good mood, said it willingly.
“Go and open it.”
“Since you have been faithfully protecting it, you must know more about that box than anyone else.”
“yes.”
“Can you teach me?”
“I wasn’t close, but there was a guy who ate a piece with Aslan. Was her name Nedia?”
Vincent’s body flinched.
Nedia.
An unmanned man 500 years ago who studied the Pasa sword, which included the supernatural sword, from Vinchen and studied the Pasa sword with Vinchen.
He was Vincent’s teacher.
“what? A name you know?”
“I heard. It’s a common name.”
“That’s right. Anyway, before Nedia died, she handed over a secret fee to Aslan. Along with the box containing that secret grade.”
That box was that.
“Why did you put it here?”
“For about 300 years, I cherished it and kept it well, but after about 300 years, it withered a bit. No one has ever found that.”
Vincent nodded.
“That’s why you kept the promises of close friends from 500 years ago and the promises of close friends from 200 years ago in one place so that you can keep them together.”
You seem to have bothered me a lot.
Vincen did not say that.
“But I am the Black Flame Dragon of trust, end, and destruction who values fidelity.”
* * *
Vincen was able to realize.
‘It was designed so that only those who can see the blade of the supernatural sword can see it.’
So it was visible in Vincen’s eyes.
Vinchen opened the box and looked at it.
Inside the box was a neatly stored book.
The book did not have a separate title.
Vinchen put the book down on the floor and bowed once.
“What are you doing?”
“Looking at it, it seems to be a non-urgent document containing the inspection. I am showing the minimum courtesy to the person who prepared this stipend.”
After meditating for a while, Vinchen took out a book and read it.
‘Although it matches the flow of the Pasa sword.’
Most of the previous chapters were omitted.
‘The flow of mana to use the supernatural sword. The method of awakening eyesight to see the supernatural sword has been deleted.’
There were even higher rises than that.
Basically, swordsmanship that can be learned only when you can use the supernatural sword.
-Then, it must be the secret level reserved for those who mastered the supernatural sword skill.
‘you. Can you hear that Nedia was my teacher?’
-what? Yes?
As Vinchen’s achievements increased, it seemed that Yulian had access to deeper information.
‘My name is Daven. Can you hear me?’
– Ah! old man! I told you not to! I’m going to break my head!
Vincen laughed.
It seemed that things about his name were still limited.
‘Don’t mess around.’
-I’ve never been so close! When did I mess around!
‘That’s right.’
– It’s unfair! it’s annoying!
‘what?’
-I respect you. Hehe.
A month has passed.
Annelin, who stopped by the space of the ring, laughed dejectedly.
“Wow, are you all right? No, maybe a month or so. Because your mental strength far exceeds that of normal humans.”
Vinchen focused on the Ascension Sword of the Supernatural Sword.
According to the secret level, the existing supernatural swordsmanship was close to half a swordsmanship.
‘It seems that considerable research has been conducted since I was imprisoned.’
I realized while reading the book.
This wasn’t something Nedia could do alone.
It seemed that the heroes of the time, including Aslan, Raenmgo, and Besatul, were deeply involved and helped.
– The surprising thing is that some of the divine power was grafted onto swordsmanship.
Divine power, in other words, was divine.
Vincen can accept divine powers through the ‘Holy Grail’.
-It’s a structure where the divine power that saves people is combined with the supernatural sword, and the efficiency is greatly improved. Interesting.
Things that were not understood halfway through were explained in detail by Julian.
Julian’s vision and point of view seemed to suggest an interpretation, so to speak.
-And… Probably, in order to properly implement these swordsmanship, not only the heart, but also the entire body must have solid mana.
It was clear that the normal body would be smashed before even using these swordsmanship.
-Such a constitution is the ‘sacrum’ that older brother was talking about.
Two months passed.
Vinchen was able to learn a little of what could be called a high-level swordsmanship of ‘supernatural swordsmanship’.
‘With a simpler sword. A supernatural sword that doesn’t even require making a sword.’
I learned a much easier and more concise skill swordsmanship.
This was basic.
And three months passed.
– It is very easy to combine the simplified supernatural sword with other swordsmanship. And, in particular, it is very compatible with Adenka’s linking sword.
The things Nedia left behind were like swordsmanship made considering Adenka’s chained sword in the first place.
About 6 months in terms of the inner world.
About 3 months passed by collimating the outside world.
“I don’t see anything more surprising now.”
In fact, every time I came in, I was a little nervous.
Isn’t Vincen going crazy?
Usually in such an environment, if you strive for training alone, there are many cases where you go crazy.
But Vinchen was too fine.
Rather, it grew tremendously every month.
8 months passed.
“Do you think you are quite tall?”
“Is that so?”
Anneline was curious about how far Vinchen would grow.
“I never thought of a future for meal delivery.”
“I am always grateful.”
“it’s okay. Because it was just a bet. There is no such thing as starving to death.”
That said, but the food and water provided by Anneline every month were of the highest quality.
The food served in the box infused with her magical power was rare and nearly magical.
It was difficult to obtain unless it was a dragon, and it greatly helped Vinchen’s physical growth.
‘Even if it’s a dragon, it won’t be easy to get these ingredients.’
-That’s why that old woman is more affectionate than I thought.
A year has passed.
Over the course of a year, Vincen grew up beyond recognition.
Anneline shook her head.
“Are you going to send another letter? It’s not enough for meal delivery, so now it’s for postman? What the hell do you think of me?”
“I think it is a kind and great Black Flame Dragon of end and destruction.”
“Oh, you saw it right.”
Anneline often delivered Vincen’s letters to the outside world.
Sometimes he sent letters to the Red Fort, and sometimes to Adencarga.
I contacted Selvira regularly and inquired about Henna’s well-being periodically.
“Oh, I’m tired. I’m tired. I’m an errand boy.”
Anneline was a little thinner than a year ago.
Time passed quickly.
A year and a half has passed by the standards of the outside world.
Vincen did not go crazy and continued to practice steadily.
Annelin also continued to support Vincen.
“It’s hard.”
After giving Vinchen food and water, Anneline came out and took a deep breath.
It didn’t show up to Vincen, but Anneline was very tired.
“I should have gone back to Mana earlier.”
I was forcibly holding on to the lifeline, wondering how long Vincen would last.
“I’m dizzy now, so it’s hard to draw blood.”
The water Vinchen drank contained ‘dragon blood’.
It was a fact that Vinchen had not been taught.
It is made of pure mana and would be of great help to Vincen’s mana training.
“I’m going to die anyway. If you save it, it becomes shit.”
Based on the space inside the ring, 6 years have passed.
By outside world standards, it was almost two years.
Anneline appeared in a clean, neat white outfit.
Anneline laughed as if it were absurd.
“It really lasts 6 years. You must be crazy.”
“Thank you.”
The Vinchen of 6 years ago and the Vinchen of today are very different.
Anneline chuckled.
“It smells quite like a man now.”
At some point, Vincen’s skeleton could be believed even as an adult.
I was 16 by the outside world standards, but physically I was 20.
“It seems that it is difficult to hold on to this space any longer.”
“okay. You just have to break this space and get out.”
Anneline looked Vincen up and down.
“With your strength now, you can break it without difficulty.”
“yes. Then let’s try it.”
Vinchen took out the red lotus.
Sureung-
The clear sword sounded.
Anneline took another step back.
“Pull out the sword carefully. You should be able to cut off the skin of your current black dragon. There is a very bloody aura on the sword.”
She instinctively sensed the power of the supernatural sword.
“Have you grown that much?”
“I will never lose against any wizard.”
“Since the dragon says so, it must be so.”
“it’s okay. Hurry up and try it. It’s another matter for me to feel it and for you to show it yourself.”
This space was a space of superpowers.
And Vinchen had a sword that could cut supernatural powers.
“My sword was originally named Supernatural Sword, but through training it has become a little more advanced. It would have been impossible without your help.”
“Why is your tongue so long today? Hurry up and show me.”
“Lastly, would the great Black Flame Dragon give the supernatural sword a new name?”
“I?”
“You must be very proud.”
“I guess so?”
After thinking seriously, she opened her mouth.
“I thought it would be a transcendence sword of end and destruction. In fact, it’s a little ambiguous to even attach a grandiose name of end and destruction, right? Apocalypse and destruction are mine.”
Anneline laughed and said.
“It’s very unfortunate, but let’s do it with transcendental swordsmanship.”
“All right.”
Vinchen raised mana.
Set an example for Anneline.
“It was created through Nedia’s family, passed on to me by Anneline, and passed on to Vincen Adenca. The name of this sword is Transcendence Sword.”
Vincen swung his sword.
I didn’t use Adenka’s sword.
It cut through space using its natural power to cut supernatural powers.
Light began to seep in.
It was the light of the outside world that I faced after two years.
“And Vincen Adenca solemnly swears.”
Vinchen put Hongryeon on the ground and knelt down.
He put his right hand on his chest and bowed his head.
“To the great dragon who has been faithful for a long time…”
No,
she decided to call her by her favorite nickname.
“I will become a warrior who is not ashamed of the Black Flame Dragon of the end and destruction. I will never forget the name of Anneline, who gave the name of Transcendental Swordsmanship.”
Annelin’s answer was not heard.
The clean, white shroud he had been wearing earlier lay neatly folded.
-Brother…Look ahead.
Vinchen finished the silence and raised his head.
A huge bone appeared in front of Vincen.
A bone that preserves the shape of a dragon.
It was a keel.
It was the last gift Anneline left for Vincen.
