Episode 88 Non-stop rain (2)
If something like that falls to the ground, both sword masters and ordinary people die.
Not just death, but a dog’s death without having done anything.
‘It’s a waste… I never thought a saint could use mana…’
He swallowed his saliva in an unexpected situation.
“Everybody is going to die today.”
What he said with a cold expression was not something a saint would say.
Duke Zahard narrowed his eyes and looked directly at Ray.
‘You’re serious.’
It was never meant to be a joke, nor was it a playful look.
“If you get hit by something like that…”
“I wasn’t involved in something like this…!”
The troops behind Duke Zahard despaired as they looked at Meteor, who was floating in the sky and burning brightly.
To be honest, I wasn’t sure if Duke Zahard himself would be able to survive if a boulder of that size fell.
That’s why he threw the last game.
“…How about the Great War?”
Of course, I know that the other person doesn’t even have to accept it.
Do they fight against each other in an overwhelmingly advantageous situation? It is absurd.
Iriel and Sieg were well aware of how much a great battle in such a situation would have a favorable effect on the opponent.
“You can’t respond, saint.”
“It’s a no-brainer.”
Ray nodded.
He was thinking of doing the same. There is no need for a major battle.
Besides, since I was going to kill them all anyway, I had no intention of wasting time fighting.
Seeing his reaction, Duke Zahard was cornered.
“Killing them all is fine. But if you kill them all with your own hands, there will be problems, big or small, right?”
“…Really?”
Ray looked at Iriel and asked.
“…That’s true… but the opponents are rebels. No matter how many kills the Holy Son is going to do, we will be able to put an end to it.”
Zeke, who had been listening quietly, lowered his head and said.
“I apologize, but I will say something, Holy Son. If caught anyway, they will all be executed. There will have to be problems, but they won’t be as big as they are now.”
After hearing their words, Ray thought for a moment.
He promised to make the kingdom the best on the continent.
If there was a problem on the road ahead, big or small, the promise could be disrupted.
If you intend to kill them all anyway, wouldn’t it be better to take them prisoner and kill them through a fair trial rather than massacre them with magic?
Moreover, it is disgusting to see the duke struggling to beg for his life even once.
Having made up her mind, Ray smiled and moved Mana.
“Cancel.”
Uh-uh-
Meteor, floating in the air, disappeared in an instant.
The rocks scatter into the arms of Mana, and the flames fade and soon disappear.
When the huge Meteor disappeared, Duke Zahard sighed.
Even if it was a big battle, I didn’t know what the odds would be, but it was better than leaving Meteor floating in the air like now.
You can’t put a ticking time bomb by your bedside that you don’t know when it will hit the ground.
Unlike Duke Zahard, Iriel and Sieg were nervous.
Troops retreated and expanded the place.
No, even if it wasn’t necessary to widen it, there were only two people around Ray, Iriel and Zeke.
This is because both enemies and allies avoided his surroundings while casting Meteor.
When the seat was ready, Duke Zahard raised his bastard sword.
The Duke was carefully watching Ray’s posture, looking for an opportunity to attack.
Standing as if fixed in place, aiming his sword at him, he frowned as he looked at Ray.
‘That’s strange… so many gaps. Is this a target?’
In Ray’s appearance, standing crookedly looking at Duke Zahard, many gaps could be found even at a glance.
Strangely, however, it seemed that if he wanted to attack, he would immediately block it.
As he continued to stand still, Ray took a step forward.
“What are you thinking? Shall I go?”
“…”
His eyes were cold, but his mouth was smiling.
‘It’s definitely not an expression that a 15-year-old kid would have.’
Duke Zahard took a deep breath and charged Ray.
His heavy sword slammed down as if trying to split Ray’s head.
Kaang –
With the sound of metal clashing, Duke Zahard’s sword was blocked.
The peacock’s eyes widened.
“A sword made of mana?”
Ray, holding a transparent blue sword, spoke as if slightly surprised.
“Didn’t you manage to cut it?”
With his words, Duke Zahard looked down at his sword.
Then, I could see that the surface of the bastard sword had been slightly cut off.
At that, the duke stepped back. His hands started to tremble.
‘From the beginning, I planned to compete with the Aura Blade…!’
A sword master’s secret technique that cuts everything.
Instead of successfully attacking with that aura blade, he almost cut off his own sword.
Where did such a monster come from? Did Shin really teach me magic from a young age?
No matter what Duke Zahard was thinking, Ray was surprised in his own way.
The sword, made only using mana, possessed tremendous destructive power.
Because they did not use mediums such as swords or arrows, they contained much more of the natural power of mana.
In addition to that, even though he drew the mana of the atmosphere with great density, he couldn’t completely cut off the duke’s sword.
It must have meant that Duke Zahard’s skills were enormous.
In fact, Ray could end this fight right away.
He was the one who killed five Death Knights in an instant.
No matter how much he was a sword master, there was no way he couldn’t kill that much.
There is no point in killing one like that.
If you’re stuck with a sword master, it would be better for you to develop your own swordsmanship if you learn how to use his swordsmanship and how to flow mana.
That’s why I’m fighting him in this way.
Ray burrowed into Duke Zahard’s arms.
He held that Ray in check and swung his sword.
The sword, which moved freely in a graceful curve, showed great proficiency.
Ray let go of the duke’s sword that was slashing his shoulder and took a step with his left foot.
The sword was quickly inserted into the duke’s side, which had a gap created by cutting the sword.
Duke Kaaang-
Hana blocked Ray’s sword with amazing speed.
‘Is he also a sword master?’
When dealing with the Death Knight, he thought that if he put his mind to it, he could win with swordsmanship.
One thing I felt while dealing with Duke Zahard was that I couldn’t defeat the Sword Master yet with only swordsmanship.
Even if the training was lacking, it was too lacking.
However, the Duke’s idea of dealing with Lei was not.
‘What is this!’
I could feel it every time the swords collided.
One sword attack. In one encounter, Ray was growing rapidly enough to be full of spirits.
That would be because Ray was determined and had input all the Duke’s sword moves into his brain.
Then, he reflects it in his swordsmanship and pours it out towards the duke like a practice opponent.
The duke felt that this series of processes seemed to make Ray grow at a tremendous speed.
Ray’s sword cut the Duke’s shoulder with powerful energy.
‘I just wrote…!’
Seeing him perform the same technique he used, Duke Zahard hurriedly raised his sword.
The sword’s speed and proficiency were poor.
What’s more, the step forward wielding a sword was something I had never seen before. Oddly enough, I couldn’t stop it easily.
If you tried to block it, it was a waste of money, if you tried to ignore it, it was a waste of money.
It was the first time he had ever seen swordsmanship, even after going through a lot of combat experience.
Would it be terrifying in the eyes of others?
In just a few seconds, dozens of swords were intertwined
.
Like cotton sucking in water, Duke Zahard’s swordsmanship spread through Ray’s sword.
Even the family’s secret swordsmanship was taken away.
Even though he was cutting his throat, the sword turned around and cut his thigh. In the end, Duke Zahard allowed the attack.
It
was a shallow wound, but that single wound meant a lot to him.
At first, I thought maybe I could win.
He doesn’t seem to have any actual combat experience, and his sword proficiency is also poor.
In addition, I don’t know if I don’t know how to activate mana in my body or I just don’t use it, but the speed of the sword is remarkably slow.
However, the speed starts to pick up soon, and in the midst of fighting, the proficiency starts to rise to the point where you can’t recognize it.
Duke Zahard, who has been called the supreme equipment since he was a child, muttered involuntarily as he looked at the wound.
“If there is a genius, this is it…”
Even so, there was no such thing as Ray stopping his sword.
Rather, it flew towards Duke Zahard even faster.
The swords that flew toward the inner knee and chest of the neck and elbow, respectively, were menacing to anyone’s eyes.
Thinking that he taught that menacing sword made him angry.
“Keuuugh!”
Infused with an aura, the sword bounced off.
Kang-Kang-
Ray’s sword, which bounced off one, began to cut again more quickly.
Kagaga River-
Ray continued to shoot his sword, putting pressure on my duke.
‘Looks like it’s time to finish it.’
There was nothing more to gain from the duke.
All that was left was to wield the sword a lot and practice it.
Ray put his sword back.
Then, the duke used his sword as a staff to let out the breath he had been holding back.
“Heo-euk… heo-euk…”
“Are you satisfied now? Let’s finish it.”
“Heo-euk… stop that… heo-euk… stop it. I’ll be caught easily…”
“You can’t.”
“What is that…”
Ray said coldly as he looked into Duke Zahad’s trembling eyes.
“As a duke and sword master, there’s no way you helped someone revolt. Are you the one who encouraged and led the rebellion? Did you seduce other nobles and get some rice cakes?”
“Keugh… I just told the nobles around me that there was such a way!”
“Damn it!”
Ray finished his speech and raised his sword.
Duke Zahard laughed at Rey as he saw the sword slashing overhead in an honest straight line.
‘I’m still on top of the actual combat experience!’
A straight line attack like this will create a gap as soon as it spills.
All you have to do is to shed the sword of the excited saint and cut off his head.
He raised his bastard sword obliquely above his head.
However, at the last moment, Ray’s sword disappeared into a blur.
After that, the sword that started to form past the duke’s sword cut through the duke’s body.
Saaaaah –
With a sound like paper being cut, blood leaked from the peacock’s wide-open eyes as if he couldn’t believe it.
“How….”
At the last moment, after making the sword disappear by dispersing the mana, did he make the sword again with mana in that brief moment?
It was the best attack ever.
No sword master would be able to stop this attack.
A sword master widely known on the continent. Duke Zahard met his end like that.
His dismembered body thumped to the ground.
Only Zeke and Iriel were able to see the last of them.
In particular, Zeke, who was a sword master like Duke Zahard, was shocked.
“An unstoppable sword…”
The sword that any sword master would have dreamed of at least once unfolded in Ray’s hand.
