Episode 603
“Khahahaha!”
Roman burst into laughter while holding his forehead. Aura seeped into his emotions and huge waves rolled over the river.
“What’s funny?”
Raon frowned at the loud sound of Roman’s laughter.
‘Could it be that he got stronger?’
Roman’s spirit now seems heavier than the Roman I met at the Ravel River two years ago.
If I wasn’t mistaken, it seemed like he had climbed higher than before.
“How could you not smile when your heart, which had stopped, started beating?”
Roman picked up the ax that had been soaking in the river water and draped it over his shoulder.
“You guys are the only ones who get me excited.”
He looked at Raon and Rimmer in turn, curling the corners of his mouth.
“Get ready.”
Roman touched the handle of the ax as if to start a three-way fight.
“I will see your skills with just three sums.”
“What is the sum of three?”
Raon chewed his lip as he looked at Roman’s eyes that seemed to be filled with madness.
‘It’s obvious they’ll rush in as soon as the threesome is over.’
Roman is a person who breaks his promises so easily that he abandons his nickname, King Father.
As soon as the three-way match ended, there was a high possibility that they would attack with all their might as they got excited.
‘It would be better to save the Sword World Manifestation.’
The best chance of survival seemed to be to hold on to the triad battle as it is and use the sword system to end it in one go in the real fight that would occur afterwards.
Ugh.
Raon resonated with the ring of fire surrounding his heart. Entering the world of hyper-focus, the energy of Mangagong and Glacia was raised to the peak.
Coo coo coo coo!
The waves that followed Roman’s momentum stopped as if they had hardened and then crumbled. It meant that his current spirit was not inferior to that of that liar.
“Triad match.”
Raon calmed his turbulent heart and stood in front of Roman.
“Let’s start.”
* * *
Rimmer chewed his lips as he looked at Raon standing across from Roman.
‘It’s worse than before.’
Considering Roman’s words and actions so far, it was obvious that he would not back down and attack even after the three-way battle was over.
‘But that doesn’t mean there is no way.’
Fortunately, Roman did not bring many subordinates. If you can just kill it, you will be able to get out of here without much trouble.
Tsk.
Rimmer clicked his tongue briefly and walked up to Siyan’s side.
“Oh brother…”
Siyan trembled with her hands folded in front of her chest as if she was worried about Raon. This child, who trusted Raon unconditionally, also seemed to be tired of Roman’s vicious attitude.
“Get ready to fight.”
“Then Raon loses….”
“That’s not true.”
Rimmer shook his head and glared at Roman.
“That guy tells lies like he eats it. Even if Raon overcomes the three-way battle, he will attack. “Then you and I must step forward.”
“Ah…”
Siyan nodded slightly as if he now understood.
“You can summon the highest level spirit, right?”
“huh. “I’ll call you right away.”
When she snapped her fingers, the water giant that was floating as if guarding the ship sank, and a cute little bird that seemed to be made of water droplets spread its small wings.
The bird that landed on Siyan’s shoulder taunted, despite its cute appearance, it possessed enormous mana.
Rimmer nodded, feeling the huge energy coming from the bird.
‘This is worth it.’
Even though it hasn’t been long since the contract was signed, that bapsae is a top-class spirit. It will be a great help in the battle with Roman.
“Huh…”
Rimmer placed his hand on the sword and took a deep breath.
‘It’s sad that I have no choice but to watch.’
Roman seemed to have become stronger than before, and the person standing in front of him was his disciple and subordinate, Raon.
My own incompetence was very painful. I was more upset than when I was unable to fight properly due to an injury to my danjeon.
‘If I were to live here…’
I would have to get a prosthetic hand.
I was worried when I heard Stelin’s words, but now I’ve definitely made up my mind.
If I return to Sieghardt alive, I will beg Encia to get a prosthetic arm.
‘So please.’
Rimmer swallowed his saliva as he looked at Raon’s broad back.
‘Hold on.’
* * *
“I heard you can use the sword system…”
Roman lifted his chin while holding the ax with one hand.
“Are you not using it?”
“Don’t worry, I’ll take care of it if necessary.”
Raon faced Roman’s sparkling eyes and shook his head.
“You’re arrogant.”
Unlike being called arrogant, Roman curled up the corners of his mouth as if he liked it more.
Coo coo coo coo!
He raises the ax to the sky. A powerful aura seeps through the dark red ax blade. The energy was just condensing, but a roar sounded like the sky was howling.
“It’s a blow!”
Roman’s ax falls with a thunderous shout. The burning energy on the ax blade flashed with a chilling blood color.
Coo coo coo coo!
Raon gritted his teeth as he watched Roman’s ax sink like a thunderbolt.
‘What!’
Even though the ax did not come down completely, the pressure pressing down on my entire body was terrifying. It felt like both my shoulders were being torn off.
‘You can’t be pushed out of power.’
Vice King Roman is a super expert who is second to none in terms of strength and spirit.
If you are on the defensive from the start, you cannot continue the three-armed match. I had to use all my strength to stop it.
Coo!
He stepped forward with his left foot and raised his sword, which had been tilted downward. It contains the secrets of the ten thousand swords stored in the image on a cold silver blade.
With the determination to never give up, I struck down the red-hot ax.
Wow!
The sword and the ax merely collided, and a roar like a mountain collapsing erupted. The river flowed backwards as if frightened, and black cracks appeared in the gravel along the riverside.
Blah blah blah!
Raon chewed his lips as he watched Roman’s axe apply more and more pressure.
‘Was it this heavy?’
Roman’s ax seemed much heavier than before. It was difficult to breathe properly.
‘We have to push it out as quickly as possible.’
The skill of an absolute sword was added to the blade of the Jecheon Sword, which swayed as if it would break. He cut off the energy that had seeped between the axes, sharpening Glacia’s cold.
Quaaaaaaaaaaa!
A dark gray light exploded between the ax blade and the blade, and Raon took five steps back.
However, Roman did not take a single step back and put a smile on his face.
“It’s pretty good.”
Roman nodded loudly, as if he was satisfied, and put the ax down. It was an evil thunderbolt that was launched from the river and destroyed the sky.
Raon frowned as he watched Roman’s ax take on an increasingly darker color.
‘I can’t stand it in this condition.’
Although he wanted to save the Sword World Manifestation, it was impossible to withstand Roman’s separation at his current level.
Raon held the Jecheon Sword and the Requiem Sword in reverse and opened the world of imagery.
Sword Realm Shinma Harmony.
When the sword realm opens, the river, which had been shaking as if hit by a storm, calms down, and the golden sun and silver moon rise above the darkened sky.
Raon lifted up the divine sword and the magical sword, shining brightly in a quiet world where he seemed to exist alone.
“Is it the sword realm? “It’s good that you make quick decisions.”
Roman chuckled and lifted the axe.
“If you were arrogant again this time, your head would have split.”
He wrinkled his nose as if he had accepted the blow.
“Then it’s all a matter of separation.”
A dark red sphere condenses above the lowered ax blade.
Although it was smaller than the Kang-hwan seen in the first blow, the greater power was compressed, creating an eerie force that felt like a tightening of a leash.
Whoops!
Roman raises the ax and chops the log-like leg as if he is being sincere. I felt the bloody intention to shatter the sky on the burning dark red ax blade.
‘This is a battle of thoughts.’
Raon drew the energy that had spread throughout the mana circuit of his entire body and put it into his hands.
As if all the energy of the body became one, it burned onto the sword, creating a blade of flame and frost. The intention to protect my sky was wrapped around two unbreakable swords.
Changcheongeom Lee Cho-sik.
Changcheon Bulseon.
He swung two swords filled with brilliance towards the ax blade that seemed to split the sky.
Wow!
As Kang-hwan and Kang-hwan collided from the front, a terrifying storm of auras erupted one after another. As if the river god was angry, the river burst out mercilessly. The riverbed was almost visible.
Jjijijijijik!
Next to Kang Hwan’s clash is the clash of thoughts.
Roman’s will to destroy everything and Raon’s unyielding will bite each other, causing a fierce war.
Quaaaaaaaa!
The aurors that had been cut and cut came together and caused an explosion. A light so intense that I couldn’t even open my eyes erupted, and the entire river flooded and spread out in all directions.
Coooooo!
This time, Roman took one step back and Raon took four steps back.
Raon looked at Roman, enduring the pain from his grip.
‘I’m sure…’
That guy has become stronger than two years ago.
I know that Roman didn’t show his full power during the three-armed battle with Rimmer two years ago, but his current force is on a different level.
Father Roman was at a higher level than two years ago.
“I guess I felt it.”
Roman lowered the ax and nodded calmly.
“It’s as you think. “I’ve moved higher since that day.”
“Have we met by chance?”
“okay. I met Giyeon. “You are the reason.”
He raised his ax and pointed it at Raon and Rimmer in turn.
“what?”
“When you reach the rank of Grand Master, mental stimulation, rather than physical training, contributes greatly to raising your level. “Thanks to the stimulation of meeting you guys at the river, I was able to climb to a higher place.”
Roman tightened his grip on the ax handle and raised his chin.
“It is thanks to you that I am what I am today.”
“Hmm…”
It was the worst and unexpected situation. But the sword had already been drawn and there was no way to retreat. All I can do now is fight as best as I can.
“You spoke at length during the confrontation.”
Roman grabbed the ax with both hands and leaned it back over his shoulders. The huge steel ring rising above the dark red ax blade causes a rotation like a waterspout. The red, flickering light was eerie, as if it contained death.
“The last one is a vicious attack. “If you hold on, I’ll call it your victory.”
“Stop saying nothing and come.”
Raon held his breath and snapped his fingers.
“I like it as expected!”
Roman stopped swinging his ax halfway. In that state, the guy took explosive steps, came in front of me, and slashed the remaining path of the axe.
It was an exquisite move that included both an Auror attack using a strong weapon and a blow using the body to its full potential.
‘I knew it.’
If I had seen it for the first time, I would have been embarrassed, but it was Muhak, whom I had seen behind Rimmer’s back before.
‘But…’
Even if you know, you can’t stop it with an ordinary sword.
Even if all the money is revealed, living comes first. I decided to show everything and pulled out all of Dantian’s auras.
Raon stepped onto the river. The energy of the manga ball and Glacia rushing from his whole body was wrapped around the magic sword that was tilted behind his shoulder and the divine sword that was propped up next to his waist.
He slashed his divine sword and magical sword towards Roman’s offensive attack, blocking his entire view.
The immense heat and cold that burned in his grip spread out like a storm, adding strength to the two blades.
A golden light passes over Raon’s eyes. Blue and red invincible. The super-elevating sword strike, which would not be surprising if it was literally called invincible, pushed back the father’s strong sword and burst into an auspicious light.
Jjijijijijik!
Black flames and brilliant golden light compete endlessly, each with their own intentions.
Coo coo coo coo!
The concentrated energy interlocks like gears and emits destructive light.
Everything touched by the bizarre purple flash is erased as if it never existed in the first place.
Afterwards, a huge explosion explodes, splitting the Peren River and sending the river waters that had been pushed back flying in all directions. The river itself collapsed.
“Huh…”
Raon let out a murky breath while standing on the riverbed. The pain felt as if my grip holding the divine sword and the magic sword had been completely burned, to the point that my head was throbbing.
‘But I endured it.’
The offensive of the grown-up father was much heavier than expected. It was so ridiculously powerful and destructive that I wanted to praise myself for holding on.
But there was no time to rest. Because I could feel Roman’s presence in the thick vapor and smoke.
‘Now is the real start.’
If it were Roman’s personality, he would definitely attack you because he was excited. It would be no exaggeration to say that this is where it begins.
As I adjusted my breathing and prepared for battle, the wind blew and blew away all the steam and smoke.
Roman took about two steps back from where he was and smiled in this direction.
Wooooow!
As expected, he raised his axe. I stopped breathing and tried to prepare, but the ax went down instead of towards me.
‘uh?’
Just when I thought it was strange, a huge energy surged from behind me. It was Rimer and Siyan.
The two people who were gathering energy during the sparring poured out intense sword strikes and spirit magic towards Roman.
“Tsk.”
Roman frowned as he lifted the ax he had put down and roughly struck away Limer’s sword chaff and Siyan’s magic.
“What are you doing?”
“It was obvious that he would break his promise and attack me anyway, so I just hit him first.”
“Uh…”
Rimmer shrugged his shoulders. Siyan bit her lip next to him.
“gibberish.”
Roman snorted and put the ax on his shoulder.
“The triad showdown is over.”
He shook his head, saying he had no intention of fighting any more.
“It was a satisfying duel. Even if it’s a life-or-death situation right now, it can be quite entertaining. But…”
Roman grinned as he looked at the divine sword and demonic sword burning in Raon’s hands.
“You haven’t reached the level I want you to reach yet. “If you face me next year in that condition, you will die.”
He said that and turned off the auror he was operating. It really seemed like he had no intention of fighting anymore.
Raon narrowed his eyes as he looked at Roman’s sunken eyes.
‘what?’
Since he even sold his nickname and shouted the three words, I thought he would fight until the end.
However, Roman put down the ax with ridiculous ease.
‘What on earth are you thinking… huh?’
As I recalled what Roman said, a thought came to mind.
‘Could it be that you warned me?’
If we meet like this on January 1st next year, I will die?
After Roman appeared here, he only checked my skills and didn’t attack me as if he really wanted to kill me.
Considering that he said he was going to die at the end, it really seemed like a three-way match was held as a warning.
“Did you really warn me?”
“Fishermen have a thing called release.”
“….”
“Even though we caught the baby fish that wasn’t fully grown yet so that it could grow bigger, they let it go. But that only ends twice.”
He grinned and sharpened his axe.
“I’m done talking, so let’s go.”
“for a moment.”
Raon took a step forward, calling out to Roman, who had his back turned.
“I have one question.”
“what?”
“Lecter.”
Raon frowned as he looked at the place where the marine market was built.
“Why is he broken?”
“…Right. “Is he dead?”
Roman followed Raon’s gaze and shook his head. For the first time, his eyes contained bitterness.
“I was taken advantage of by talent.”
“what?”
“Although Lecter may not be as talented as you, he has a talent that wouldn’t be surprising if he were called a genius. But during the match between wild vegetables, I was defeated by a talent even more terrible than him and I ended up eating him.”
“Did you lose to a man named Beorn?”
“Do you even know that name?”
He smiled and nodded.
“Beorn was Rector’s servant. He was a guy who was hiding a lot of things. “You’d better be careful. Well, that’s only when you’re alive next year.”
Roman left those words and turned his back on me again.
“hey.”
While Raon was frowning, Rimmer came up next to him and called Roman.
“Whatever the situation, you’ve given up on tinnitus, right?”
“Yes.”
Roman nodded as if he had no regrets.
“Then I’ll give you a new nickname.”
Rimmer lifted his chin and twisted his mouth.
“From now on, your nickname will be Bulal, which means a damn liar who uses an axe.”
With that one word, the serious atmosphere was instantly extinguished.
“….”
A deep well appeared between Roman’s eyebrows as he said he would not regret it.
-Ugh…
Ras looked at Rimmer and shook his head.
-No matter how you look at that guy, he’s just crazy…
