Chapter 718,
Chapter 180. Fighting each other (8)
* * *
The battlefield of Jin and Diphus outside Riccarton.
The wilderness was breaking.
Like a huge storm, the thunderstorm spread from the beacon sword Sigmund tore through the sky and the earth.
A considerable amount of time has already passed since the two teleported from Riccarton Castle.
In the meantime, even though the battle had been so intense that the whole terrain of the wilderness was twisted, there were no injuries to the two of them yet.
They are unable to strike a blow to each other.
Jin was wasting more energy.
This was because Difus could easily hit and run through flight, while Jin had to spread brain energy enough to dominate the entire battlefield in order to press him.
But even if Jin was ‘wasting’ his strength, it wasn’t enough.
On the contrary, Difus was admiring it as he pushed aside the cerebral qi that grew stronger as time went by.
[It’s this kind of power without being endowed with power like me… I can see why you rebelled against your mother. You probably didn’t feel the need.]
Difus said, dodging the thunderbolt.
[But not everyone can do it like you.]
Jin didn’t answer and focused his eyes on the lightning that cut through the air and disappeared somewhere before it hit the ground.
‘It’s not the first time. It’s been a long time since… my attacks that the 4th Horseman avoided or parried are disappearing.’
At first, Jin didn’t even notice. Because the battle was fierce, there was no time to check even the afterimages of the wasted sword.
However, the two men’s workshop was now losing balance. The taut string was pulled a little toward Jin.
There was only one reason.
This is because even if Difus received some of Rosa’s powers, he could not become stronger than Jin.
Even if it was intact, it would be the same, but since he received irreparable damage from eternalization and even used teleportation unreasonably, the gap widened faster.
‘Where do my attacks that disappeared like that go? Is it going to be returned to the Fourth Horseman in some way…’
[Looks like you’re worried about the guys left in Riccarton Castle. Seeing how he keeps getting distracted while he just started pushing me.]
Jjaeong-!
said Difus, slamming Bolgar down. Jin shot Sigmund up and fired a thunderbolt, and he could confirm that the thunderbolt that missed also disappeared.
“Focus on you guys. I don’t think it’s an action to fight me to do post-processing on an attack I dodged.”
All of a sudden, Jin retrieved the brain energy that filled the battlefield all at once.
Difus shrugged as he slowly descended.
[You have good eyesight. I didn’t expect to notice already.]
“If I was worried about my colleagues, I would have tried to return to Riccarton Castle somehow. I’m not going to fight like this with you all in one place.”
Jin changing swords.
“I honestly don’t know why there is post-processing on missed attacks. But now it doesn’t matter. Since the search battle is over, you won’t be able to afford to do such a thing from now on…”
A pure white aura wrapped around Bradamante.
That silently glowing aura gave off an atmosphere that was completely opposite to the brainstorm that had been violently trampling the entire wilderness.
[I’m going to leave brain and spirit skills alone and use lower level power. Would it be okay?]
Jin changed his sword to minimize miss attacks.
Brain Ki itself was too ferocious, so there were many attacks that were inevitably shed.
Also, choosing an aura instead of aura was for the purpose of conserving power.
‘I’m pretty sure he can’t beat me. They’re already fighting assuming defeat.’
Jin kept getting that feeling from Dipus.
In fact, after the operation began, all of Difus’ responses were maneuvers to buy time.
Separate Jin from his colleagues, spread fantasy magic on the Ziffle side, and place the most troops on the Kingelo side.
It was the same even now. Difus was dragging the fight sluggishly by post-processing the attack that he hadn’t dared to miss.
Jin came to the conclusion that all these actions were to arrange Rosa’s participation in the war.
Another evidence was Orgal and Siris.
Even though it’s been a long time since Jin was separated from the group, there is still no news of friendly teleporters.
‘Currently, there is no one in the Garden of Swords faction that can handle Orgal and Kingelo except for the bust. But the reason people with teleportation skills can’t find me is because Orgal is tied up somewhere.’
If Orgal had been with the allies in Riccarton Castle, they would have already sorted out the situation and started looking for Jin.
In particular, with Orgal’s ability, he should have visited Jin several times.
And there was only one existence in the Garden of Swords that could bind Orgal.
Chest God Rosa.
Orgal is currently unable to join the battlefield to prevent her participation.
It was the reason Jin had to save his spirit. After dealing with Difus, we need to support Orgal.
“Are you okay? Everything you’ve done has been like that… but that’s not something Difus-nii would say. My older brother was someone who fought only with a sword. He later hinted that he would join the return of the demon sword for the sake of his family, but he still worshiped the sword the most. Because we go to the sword.”
So, let me show you the true nature of the swordsman.
Right after Jin continued to talk behind his back, Difus felt a momentary white sensation before his eyes.
It was Bradamante’s blade that blocked his vision.
The response was delayed because he had become accustomed to the speed of brain energy.
At a speed that surpassed the thunderbolt, Jin was unleashing Runkandel’s decisive battle.
Runkandel 6th Decisive Electric Light.
The decisive battle he fought in the first mission to kill Barton with Dipus. Jin chose the sword as a start.
Difus hurriedly stepped on his steps and spread his wings.
However, another runekandel’s decisive force was already falling at the place where he flew and ascended.
Runkandel 3rd decisive battle meteor shower.
There is nowhere to escape.
Hundreds of black spirits covered the sky before anyone knew it, cutting through the clouds and disturbing Dipus’ vision.
The rapidly increased combat speed was embarrassing, but up to this point, it was a level that Difus could deal with.
It was also possible to send missed attacks to Riccarton Castle.
However, Jin nailed it in advance, saying that he would not be able to afford it.
That means that he learned all the patterns and countermeasures of Difus in the search battle.
Jin had the confidence to push forward without giving Difus time to catch his breath, let alone spare time for post-processing of the attack.
Just as Difus was about to return the five meteor showers and send a bounced attack to Riccarton, Jin had already thrown himself into the meteor shower’s twisted trajectory and opened a new sword.
Overlord Sword 1st Decisive Meteor Breaker.
This time, contrary to the meteor shower, the appearance of sword spirits gushing from the ground continued.
Unlike the real Supreme Sword that Ron had unleashed, the sword did not shine as gray, but Jin had acquired the sword he had seen in the Sword Emperor Temple by changing it to the Runcandel style. With the help of Tushin’s class when training in Lapra Rosa.
With Difus at the center, the meteor shower and meteor destroyer interlocked, and one of Difus’ wings was torn off.
‘Two seconds until playback.’
2 seconds no matter how fast. It was the speed he had confirmed by tearing Difus’s wings several times with the jet fighter.
However, Jin prepared the next sword even faster than that.
Runkandel’s 5th secret weapon: Lightspeed Piercing.
The center of gravity kept twisting as the aura inside his body fluctuated and he engaged in several decisive battles at once.
The beam thrust pierced Difus’ remaining wing.
‘Four seconds until the aura reflux calms down.’
The reflux did break out. Jin closed the distance to him, calming the backflow while the fallen Dippus regained his stance and cut off the remaining sword energy of the meteor shower.
Difus was unable to post-process the missed swords any longer as he blocked the attack.
When 4 seconds had passed, the distance between Jin and Difus was 20 paces.
And the regurgitation that broke out on Jin completely stopped progressing, and Dipus’s wings were on the verge of regenerating.
‘You should have realized this by now. No matter what I do, my sword is faster than regeneration.’
As expected, instead of struggling to keep the distance, Difus approached Jin and swung the Bolgar.
A huge blade soaked in chaos fell on Jin’s head.
However, the number that Jin foresaw as he switched swords was the end of this fight.
‘It’s just that they think they don’t have enough time to unfold the eternity.’
It was true. In such an urgent battle, even a Jin cannot be fully eternalized.
Therefore, each time in battle, it was necessary to accumulate time to unfold the eternity by a very small amount.
I had to push Difus one step at a time, leaving a cliff behind before I knew it.
Runkandel’s 1st Decisive Battle, Seokcheon.
Among the legacy left behind by Jorden, the family’s foremost decisive battle.
When Bradamante was pinned to the ground, Dipus, who was rushing forward, belatedly recognized which sword the move was for.
“You have good eyesight. It must be thanks to the memory of Deepus.”
But it was too late.
The aura that had already engulfed the ground exploded, creating a huge sword that split the ground and sky in half.
Difus hurriedly stepped to the side, but Sweak Chun’s sword spirit soared from that side as well.
Even the fragments of the aura left in the sky by the meteor shower and the meteor destroyer were swept away by the river and were about to be pulverized.
[Kwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…!]
Fragments of the shattered meteor shower pierced Difus’ back, and Sakcheon’s sword was rushing into the sky, piercing the ground more and more ferociously.
One of them engulfed Dipus’ left wing and left arm, which had just been regenerated.
If it was the right arm holding the Bolgar, the battle would have ended at this point.
However, only the battle continues, and the match has already ended a while ago.
Jin was so sure. Difus was also in a state of battle, assuming defeat from the beginning.
Even though Difus knew he was going to lose, he took Jin out of the battlefield and induced a one-on-one confrontation.
To give Rosa time to move.
Also to make Jin despair.
Thinking about that intention, Jin gritted his teeth once.
“If I end up killing you like this… do you think I’ll despair? Don’t be mistaken, the 4th horseman of the bust. Sister Mary and I have come after preparing to send Difus.”
Soon, Jin widened his eyes and finished the slaughter and swung his sword at Dipus again.
