Chapter 292 People heading to Dmitri (5)
15 days ago.
Knight Commander Jonathan, who thought there would be no more surprises after Fred, felt his heart sink when he discovered a name.
[Ares]
“… Ares That Ares?”
It was embarrassing.
Even people like Fred Logan were candidates beyond imagination, but Ares was a different dimension from them.
Ares was a so-called genius.
Born in Valhalla, he showed a growth trend that attracted people’s attention, and then broke all records and became the youngest player in the Valhalla ranking.
if it was that much.
People wouldn’t have called him the continent’s greatest swordsmanship genius.
Ares was always famous for defeating aura swordsmen of a higher level than himself, but unlike the general category, he did not fight with ‘the power of the aura’.
A systematic swordsmanship that beautifully pushes the opponent.
The swordsmanship he invented himself overcame the difference in aura and destroyed the opponent.
sequentially from 100th.
Ares raised his rank.
Then one day, an incident occurred that shocked people.
Continental ranking 12th.
He challenged Schneider, a member of the Twelve Swords of the Continent, and after a fierce battle, Ares defeated Schneider and took the 12th place.
The events of that day caused great upheaval.
It was a general judgment that beings using 6-star auras could not be dealt with unless they had an aura of the same level because the difference in destructive power rose rapidly in stages.
However, Ares, who reached the level of 5 stars at an early age, proved that he could overcome the difference in destructive power with only swordsmanship.
A swordsman’s genius.
People praised it.
I don’t know how long it will take, but Ares said he could take the top spot anytime.
‘Ares is from Valhalla, but he is a wandering swordsman who is not tied to any one place. So, even though the emperors of Valhalla and Cronus worked hard for 10 years to get him, he never swore allegiance to anyone. But to think that Ares is volunteering for Master Roman’s enlistment.’
I couldn’t believe it.
sure thing.
No matter how much you think about Ares’ support, it was clear that the balance was destroyed.
* * *
The moment Ares goes on stage.
Chris knew it was coming.
People, including Knight Commander Jonathan, said that a person like Ares should skip the test, but Chris insisted that it was not right.
Roman Dmitry announced his intention to recruit private soldiers.
It was Chris’ judgment that the qualities of an enlisted soldier who would blindly follow Roman Dmitri, even if he was supported by beings who exceeded that condition, could not be evaluated simply by force.
so.
was put on the list.
Since it was his turn, his name was called, and Ares pointed out ‘Chris’ as his opponent, receiving people’s attention.
And now.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
Chris was helplessly pushed.
It was completely different from Diego’s time.
Against Diego, if he felt like he was pushed one-sidedly by the overwhelming destructive power, Ares felt more pressure than Diego even though he used an aura that was one level lower than that.
It was hard to come to my senses.
If he raised his sword to block an attack, Ares’ attack exploded in a vulnerable area, and Ares stepped up if Chris showed even a slight shake, not allowing him space to catch his breath.
Caang!
Kakakakakang!
Sparks flew.
There was no time to think.
As instinct warned, Ares’ waves were blocked, and the heavy aura broke through the defense and shook the inside.
Kaang-
The sword bounced off.
Chris didn’t miss a moment.
‘One island.’
Flash.
realm of speed.
The moment he attempted an attack that knocked out Diego and Fred at once, Ares let his silver hair fly and let Chris’s attack pass.
Chris’ face reddened in astonishment.
Most of them were attacks that didn’t even respond properly, but Ares’ eyes clearly seemed to grasp the ‘path of movement of the sword’.
And then.
hook.
Kwadeuk.
It dug into the space and cut off Chris’ chest.
Gold appeared on the armor.
Chris’ expression distorted at the attack, which would have been fatal if it had been a little deeper.
The opponent was a being worthy of his reputation as a swordsman genius.
And apart from the fact that it was simply strong, it was a completely different type of swordsman from the beings Chris had dealt with so far.
Western Front.
Chris met Hannibal.
Ranked 3rd in the continent, he used an overwhelming aura, and Chris felt that he could never win in a destructive confrontation with him.
But Ares was more threatening than Hannibal.
It doesn’t mean Ares is stronger than Hannibal, but Ares’ method of fighting with swordsmanship is Chris’ natural enemy.
Unless you can get an edge in swordsmanship.
There was no way for Chris, whose aura’s destructive power was weak, to reverse the current situation where he was being pushed back unilaterally.
Flash.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
attempted a counterattack.
A quick attack cut the distance from Ares, and Chris took a few steps away to catch his breath.
“Whoop whoop whoop.”
I didn’t care what other people looked at.
Only Ares and himself.
Leaving the realm of testing, I really wanted to win this match.
‘… I will be defeated the moment my intentions are slightly off.’
Ares has arrived.
He stretched out his sword and smiled, revealing that he still had time to spare.
“Dmitri’s flashes were not false. Please do not let me down until the end.”
at that time.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
I heard an explosion right next to me.
Kevin and Logan.
The match between the two ended before Chris did.
* * *
Logan of Steel.
Steel (鋼鐵) meant honesty.
Caang!
I parried Kevin’s attack.
As expected, Kevin took steps and dug into the side space and attempted an attack aimed at Logan’s blind spot.
It was usually a situation where you could defend by stepping back.
Kevin’s movement was just as menacing, but Logan raised his sword wide, and instead took a step forward and slashed it down.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
An exploding aura.
It fell like lightning.
His body shimmering with an aura showed a willingness to take Kevin’s attack, and instead of giving up his flesh, he intended to harpoon Kevin’s bones.
Kevin had no choice but to retrieve the attack and turn around.
In the number of Dong Gui Jin (同歸於盡), the one who lost his life first had to be Kevin, who had a weak aura.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.
The arena floor was broken.
Logan’s gaze immediately caught up with Kevin’s.
The exploding aura crushed the ground and Logan caught up in an instant, as if devouring Kevin.
The use of the aura was at a high level.
If Ares put pressure on Chris with a focus on swordsmanship, Logan’s aura to protect the body and speed up with explosive power, etc., showed great skill in pushing opponents.
There was not the slightest hint of weakness.
People tried to prove their worth by defeating Kevin in this spot that could barely be called a test.
Caang!
Kakakakakang!
clear advantage.
Logan took the win.
The people watching shut their mouths, thinking that maybe the two mountain ranges of Chris and Kevin might collapse.
however.
sigh.
Kevin laughed.
the stronger the opponent.
In a situation where he was increasingly cornered, Kevin kept smiling as if he couldn’t hide his joyful feelings.
Since entering the stage of cannibalism, he has shown extreme tendencies.
I became more honest with my emotions, and my blood boiled like crazy whenever I met a strong man like now. Logan was strong.
Logan of Steel was a swordsman who destroyed opponents with his honesty, and he stayed in 19th place because the top rankers avoided confrontation with him.
In fact, a strong player in the top 10 or higher.
As Count Clive, he had no choice but to seize him in a fit.
Logan pushing Kevin, Logan overpowering Kevin proved how great he is.
so that.
It was worth knocking down.
The match against the strong brought the meaning of Kevin’s existence to life.
‘I must be the first being trusted by the lord. It’s me, not Chris or Fernando. I am the sword that represents the lord.’
blast furnace.
Logan is.
It was such a good opponent to shine the value of his existence.
* * *
Kevin laughs.
provoked Logan.
‘Smile?’
against yourself.
no one can relax
Even Roman Dmitri would have hurt his pride, but he couldn’t tolerate an existence like Kevin.
I heard that Kevin defeated Blanco in a great battle against the Kronos Empire.
Dmitri’s goblin is now a celebrity whose name people remember, and Logan has recognized his skills.
It was only that he was stronger.
Logan pushed forward, exploding his aura at Kevin’s cornered figure.
Kwalung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
The aura overflowed.
The attacks in the past were not reckless pushes, but limited space one by one for the current blow.
Logan’s secret skill is to spread the aura and attack at once called the aura wave.
Leaving the situation of the test, Logan bet the odds for a solid victory.
That moment.
Flash.
Aura split.
The overflowing aura was ripped away, and Kevin with the face of a demon could be seen behind it.
‘The first half of the Heavenly Demon’s Sword.’
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
An explosion occurred.
The collision between the Aura Wave and the Heavenly Demon Sword swept away the existence of the two, and Logan sought Kevin’s location as if he would not back down.
But so was Kevin.
Kevin rushed towards Logan and showed no signs of backing down, even though he knew that he would be swept away by the flood of auras at the slightest deviation.
on the tip of the knife.
two existed.
Kevin raised his aura and swung his sword at Logan.
“Where do you block this?”
Quaang!
Logan wavered.
I punched the ground into my leg and parried Kevin’s attack.
“This too!”
Using the repulsive force of the bounced sword, Kevin attempted a follow-up attack. It was also an opportunity for Logan to counterattack.
But the moment Kevin’s eyes meet. I instinctively chose to defend.
Rather than worrying that he might be fatally injured by the number of Dongguijin, he was convinced that Kevin’s attack would be faster than his own.
As expected.
Quaang!
The attack exploded.
Against a 5-star prosecutor, Kevin showed a mad look.
“This too!”
Quaang!
“This too!”
Quaang!
“Stop this too!”
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
It was the look of a madman.
Kevin did not back down, even against the iron Logan at the tip of a sword whose aura was raging.
If the opponent counterattacks with all their might. In the same way, he used the Heavenly Demon Sword to press down Logan.
The fundamental power of the aura was lower than that of Logan, so he was upset and blood leaked from his mouth, but Kevin rather showed his teeth stained with blood.
Madness was the symbol of madness. Logan’s strong obsession with victory, rather than his weakness, caused the surprise.
widely.
Unknowingly.
Logan took a step back.
Kevin, like a hyena, did not miss the opportunity and raised his power.
‘Three seconds in the first half of the Heavenly Demon Sword.’
Moment.
Logan also showed a fierce look.
Even in the face of Kevin’s powerful blow, he rather chose to attack, befitting his nickname of steel.
Kwalung.
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
aura wave.
swung the sword
This was not a test, but a matter of pride, and the two prosecutors did not back down from each other.
Quaang!
Qurrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
clashed
A violent collision ensued, and a thick cloud of dust enveloped the surroundings. Those who watched held their breath.
The fight between Kevin and Logan was overwhelming.
If Ares overpowered Chris, Kevin and Logan showed their obsession with winning to the extent that it wouldn’t be strange whoever won.
The dust has settled.
yet.
I saw Kevin’s face.
rumble.
Blood flowed from his face.
His face was covered in blood as a result of being exposed to the storm of aura, but unlike his miserable face, it was Logan who knelt.
Kevin’s attack was one step faster.
Even with his honesty called steel, he could not withstand the attack that tore his aura and came in.
Accepted reality. Logan lowered his head with a miserable expression in a situation he could not have imagined even when he left Valhalla.
“… lost.”
Admitted.
Kevin deserved the win.
People weren’t happy.
I was overwhelmed and just stared blankly.
Kevin’s gaze turned to Chris’s stage.
I shouted at Chris, who casually wiped the blood flowing from his face and was fighting.
“Chris!”
people said
Chris is.
It’s Dmitri’s second-in-command.
Kevin was always dissatisfied with that, and the infested inferiority complex always wanted him to be the first person Roman Dmitri trusted.
It doesn’t mean that I hate Chris and hate him.
Chris didn’t see Kevin as a competitor from the start, but from the start Kevin saw him as a mountain to climb.
Like Chris trying to surpass Roman Dmitri.
Kevin did.
“I cannot watch Dmitri lose. If Chris loses against him, it’s my turn next.”
I grinned.
complex.
and blind loyalty.
That was the basis of the human being Kevin.
