#141
The stone wall exploded with a loud noise. The dark blue sea water poured down like a waterfall. Ronan, seeing this crazy act, cursed.
“That crazy bitch…!”
Outside was a deep sea where not even light could reach. It seemed like the intention was to sink Lodolan itself underwater. Asher quickly lifted himself into the air and waved his hands in the air.
【I don’t want to see it all. Disappear.】
bang! Quang! An explosion occurred again. Streams of water began pouring from three holes. The sea water rose up to my calves in a matter of seconds. Erzsebet, who had become thoughtful, canceled the magic she was preparing.
“oh my god···!”
She stretched out her hand towards the rushing water. Ugh! A purple curtain closed the hole and the flooding stopped. Erzsebet chewed her lips under pressure that exceeded her expectations.
“Ugh..I can’t last much longer!”
The hole was gradually widening due to water pressure. Root-like cracks were spreading across the entire wall. She said, glancing back at Ronan.
“Ronan-sama…!”
It was a look whose meaning was self-evident. Ronan nodded. Since I couldn’t shoot the sword, I had to go and subdue it myself.
Paaang! He strengthened his legs with mana and leaped towards Asher. Asher clicked his tongue disdainfully and pointed his index finger at Ronan.
【You’re resisting in vain.】
“Ugh!”
Ronan’s flying body stopped in the air. His invisible hand was grasping him. Asher, who was looking down at Ronan, opened his mouth.
【We really look alike… The child who didn’t even look at me even though I tempted him so much is leaving behind descendants…】
“f*ck, who the hell is that?”
【I cannot forgive. dare···.】
Asher began muttering something in a quiet voice. Ronan frowned at her. It was bad enough that the guy was trying to seduce me, but I felt even worse because he didn’t tell me who it was until the end.
【···My thoughts have changed.】
“what?”
【I will save you, so guide me to that child. If blood is connected, then paths must also be connected.】
“You crazy bitch. “If I knew that, I would have gone looking for you a long time ago.”
Ronan laughed. Even if I tried to dig up information, I couldn’t because he kept saying only what he wanted to say. He raised his arm shakily and raised his middle finger.
“f*ck you.”
After saying that, Ronan spat out phlegm. Asher clenched his fists in silence. The tightening force became stronger. A haze-like cold wave spread around Asher’s body.
‘That’s…!’
Ronan twisted his lips. It was a magic I had seen many times in my past life. Seaaaa… The cold air gathered and formed a shape. Seven great swords made of ice appeared in the air. Asher extended his index finger again and pointed at Ronan.
【It’s a shame.】
Squirt! Seven great swords were fired at Ronan. Each one was so long and huge that one could believe they were pillars of a temple. Ronan sighed.
“As expected, I can’t finish it well. Asher.”
It was the moment when the great sword came one step closer. Kwajangchang! As soon as Ronan’s arm disappeared from sight, seven great swords exploded in the air.
【what···!】
Before he knew it, Ronan was holding La Mancha in his hands. Asher’s face, who had not even seen her swinging the sword, was contorted in confusion. Shattered fragments were falling.
Suddenly! Ronan swung her sword again, cutting off her telekinetic hold on him. Now that she was free, her body began to fall. He calmly switched the power source and grabbed the hilt of the sword.
‘Managing mana has become easier. Is this the effect of Haeju?’
La Mancha’s sword body turned white. Ronan, who had gathered mana, activated Terranil’s Aura. Kwaaaaang! A huge shockwave exploded from beneath Ronan’s feet. Erzébet, startled, shrugged his shoulders.
“Aaaah!”
The space vibrated. Ronan’s falling body rose upward. Asher was embarrassed and tried to increase his altitude, but Ronan was already right in front of him. Wow! Ronan’s fist flew straight into Asher’s stomach.
【Huh!】
Saliva burst out from between the open mouth. I could hear his ribs breaking deep down there. Asher’s back was bent like a shrimp.
【How dare you…!】
Asher gritted his teeth and swung his arms as if to shake them off. The cold air gathered again, and dozens of ice thorns were created around it. Ronan quickly rolled his eyes and counted the number of thorns flying at her.
Five from the left, seven from the right, twelve just below.
After completing the calculation, Ronan cut into the air without hesitation. Twenty-four sword energy in the shape of a crescent moon appeared along the sword path. Wedge! The sword energy was fired straight at the thorns. At the same time, spikes aimed at Ronan were fired in batches. Kwajangchang! The sword energy and ice thorns collided at exactly the midpoint, creating twenty-four ice flowers.
【No way!】
Not a single sword was missed. The sound of breaking and breaking rang out. Asher’s eyes widened. It was an incredible sight, even though he had lived for countless years. Ronan immediately stretched out his arm and grabbed him by the throat.
【Ugh!】
“I won’t let you go if you don’t come out.”
As Ronan tightened his hand, Asher’s face turned pale. My breathing became tight and my concentration was broken. The telekinetic power that kept his body afloat was released and the fall began.
【Are you planning to kill this child?】
“It’s not bad. “When she thinks about what her aunt did to me, she wants that bastard dead too.”
【you···.】
The wind was roaring in my ears. Ronan never relaxed his grip. Asher’s vision was becoming increasingly blurry.
He really felt like he was going to kill himself by breaking the bowl. Asher, who was quickly shaking his head, lowered his head. Soon he raised his head and screamed in horror.
“Hey! Ronan?!”
“···Azer?”
Ronan’s eyes widened. It was the voice of Asher she knew. Her once white eyelashes were turning red again. Asher, who was crying, began to speak passionately.
“Please, please believe me…! Hugging you wasn’t something I did of my own volition. This is such a strange thing to say! Argh! “My body moves as it pleases…!”
“You idiot, does that matter now? “What happened?”
“Mo, I don’t know. “The woman suddenly hugged me…”
Every time Asher spoke, the tears that flowed were hitting Ronan’s cheeks. For a moment, the strength in his hands loosened. Suddenly, Asher’s head, which had been speaking passionately, was thrown back. Ronan raised his eyebrows.
“Aser?”
【Oh… thank you.】
“Four years…!”
The voice changed again. Ronan immediately tightened her grip, but Asher was faster at casting magic. Her invisible palm struck Ronan. Quang! He flew in a straight line and crashed into the wall.

“Ugh!”
“Ronan!”
bang! Ronan slid down the wall and fell. Erzsebet hurriedly stretched out her hand and grabbed him with telekinesis and pulled him. At that moment, an explosion occurred on the wall in a different direction than before. Kwaaaaang! The sea water burst out with a loud noise and poured down on her head.
“Oh my…!”
It was inevitable. Erzébet reflexively raised his left arm above his head. Her hemispherical shield enveloped her, Ronan, and Ithar Gand. It was just as the water reached the shield. Erzébet, realizing her own mistake, sucked in her breath.
“···hot!”
I forgot about the existence of the defense shields I had put up earlier. Concentration was dispersed, and the already dangerous defenses were shattered. The widening crack widened and the entire wall on one side collapsed.
“Oh, no!”
Erzsebet screamed. Quaaa! The stagnant water flow poured out like a torrent. The sea water swallowed the three people in an instant.
It was around the time when the water level rose to about half of the space. Asher, who was once again in the air, chanted softly.
【Frozen Field.】
A bluish chill spread beneath his feet. Kaaaang! The sea water, which had been churning as if it were alive, suddenly froze. The sound of water stopped and silence came.
Ronan and his group, who were at the bottom, were never able to get out. A biting chill rose above the frozen whirlpool. Asher, who was looking down at the black ice, touched her neck and muttered.
【···After all, blood cannot be faked.】
It was absurd. Even though he was a descendant, I did not expect him to be a swordsman with that level of skill. I almost lost consciousness and fainted.
[Ro…I!]
At that time, a boy’s cry rang out in my head. It was the voice of the original body owner. Asher shook her head from side to side.
【Stop giving up, child. Your body is already mine…and your heart is too weak compared to your talents.】
When I found out it was a man’s body, I thought about coming out right away, but I soon changed my mind. It seemed like no matter where she went, she wouldn’t find someone with this much talent.
It was a more reasonable decision to be subject to something like a curse that changes one’s gender while maintaining one’s body. The boy’s voice was heard again.
[Give it back!]
The boy’s consciousness was constantly resisting even though his body was taken away. I felt like I had to break his heart and take control of his mind first. Suddenly, a bitter smile appeared on Asher’s lips.
【Okay, let me show you what you can do.】
Asher raised his head. He concentrated his mind and punched out. Quaaaaaaa!! An invisible fist hit the ceiling and an explosion occurred. The entire Lodolan shook and screams rang out from everywhere.
“Aaaah!”
“Bah, the floor! “How did this happen?!”
“My legs are stuck…! Help me!”
Before long, the dust cleared and the open ceiling revealed itself. At the same time, a bright cloud of light poured down on Asher’s head. Asher looked up at the hole and laughed. A bright blue dot was twinkling in the distance.
【Did you see it?】
It didn’t take long to realize that it was the sky. It was as if they had penetrated all the way from the very bottom to the top of Lodolan in one go. A scream rang out in Asher’s head.
[Oh no!]
【It would be good to practice being resolute. Let’s get some air】
Asher’s body rose along the beam of light. The seal had already been broken a long time ago.
A cross-section of the prison was exposed on the side of the long hole. Lodolan, which had suffered unprecedented destruction, was in despair.
I saw people lying down and bleeding. I saw prisoners who had been lucky enough to be released and causing a riot, and guards suppressing them.
Desperate screams were constantly ringing out. A few people shouted at Asher, but nothing changed. Asher’s horizons, which continued to rise, widened significantly.
【Ah, fresh air… it’s been a long time.】
Asher took a deep breath and burst into laughter. The dawning sun stretched out before her eyes. The sunlight reflected off the water scales was sparkling. The bitter sea breeze was tearing through her white hair.
Below my feet was a Lodolan with a hole in its head. The dock carved out of the reef and the anchored ships were also visible at a glance. The people camping outside pointed at Asher and shouted.
“Yes, a person has appeared!”
“Who is it? “Did something go wrong?”
“So what was that explosion just now?”
The way it was squirming looked exactly like an ant. Suddenly, a crack-like smile appeared on Asher’s lips. After scanning the people, he opened his mouth.
【If I kill them all, will your heart break?】
[S-Stop it…!]
【I think so.】
Asher stretched out his hand and aimed at a sailing ship. It was Itargand’s ship, larger and more luxurious than the emperor’s flagship. That was the moment he clenched his fists. Kwaaaaang! An ice pick with a diameter of about 20 meters rose up and pierced the ship.
[no!!]
A scream rang out in Asher’s head. The awl, created by freezing seawater, continued to grow and lifted the ship above the water. Ujikkeun! In the end, the boat, unable to withstand its own weight, split in half. The spray created by the bow falling hit the people.
“Ahhhh! “Save me!”
“Hey, Lord Itargand’s ship…!”
The dockside quickly turned into a mess. People covered in water scattered in confusion. The sea surface was freezing due to the cold flowing from the awl. Asher, aiming at the other ship, opened her mouth.
【Shall we try a little more?】
[Please. Please stop, okay?!]
Despite his desperate pleas, Asher raised his hands again. She was about to use her magic again. Quaaaaaaa!! Suddenly, an explosion sounded from behind.
【What?】
Asher quickly turned his head. Under the dust rising like volcanic eruptions, a completely destroyed fortress came into view. He found that the hole he had made had expanded to about three times its size.
【What is this…】
I couldn’t figure out what happened. At that time, a dark shadow fell over Asher’s head. Only then did Asher hear the sound of wings flapping through the sea breeze. A familiar voice was heard.
“Hey, ma’am.”
He slowly raised his gaze. A huge red dragon was flapping its wings with its back to the sun. His terrible scars were etched into his sides and chest.
【Itargand…?】
It was definitely him. Flames were flickering and escaping from the gap between the slightly gaped teeth. On top of the dragon’s head were two people who should have been crushed to death by ice.
“You really almost died. Do you want to sleep?”
They were glaring at Asher, still holding on to the small Itargand’s horn. Asher’s face turned pale at the unrealistic sight.
【Oh, how!】
“Shoot.”
Ronan said. At the same time, Itargand’s mouth opened. His pent-up fire poured out like a torrent. Bright red flames covered Asher’s vision.
【Only this much!】
Asher raised his hand. Sigh! The ice pick that emerged from the sea was fired straight at Itargand. The fire melted the ice at a rapid rate, but because of its size, it did not disappear.
The awl that flew through the flames was about to hit Itargand. Kagagak! The ice split in half and Ronan appeared. Asher’s eyes grew so big that they seemed to pop out.
【what···!】
In his right hand, he held a red-stained La Mancha, and in his left hand, he held Ymir in a sheath. Asher reflexively put up a shield, but Ronan tore the shield down with a light swing of La Mancha.
“That’s enough and come out. “You bitch.”
The distance has completely narrowed. Wow! Ymir flew in an arc and hit Asher on the back of the neck. She rolled over his eyes and her consciousness was cut off.
