Children of the Holy Emperor Chapter 239

239. Sword Master (3)

“…Logan seems to be doing well.”

Seongjin muttered softly.

The air on the battlefield changed.

Although he couldn’t see, Seongjin could feel it.

Morale, which had hit rock bottom, was revived and the atmosphere was dramatically reversed.

“But that alone is still not enough. I have to open the way for Logan…”

“Sir! Say no more!”

Director Bruno, who carried Seongjin down the watchtower, spoke urgently.

Strangely enough, the prince’s condition is getting worse by the minute.

‘Why on earth?’

All the prince did was stand still in the watchtower. Even though he looked extremely tired just a moment ago, it wasn’t much different from how the prince usually looked.

But why is blood suddenly flowing from his eyes? Also, why is the current state of the Aurors becoming more and more blurry, as if they are all dying?

“Lord Saron….”

Director Bruno, who was urgently looking around to find an exorcist, soon shed a bitter smile.

If you think about it, there were times when she was so upset that she didn’t want to go to the monster task force at all. But lately, whenever something happens, people are looking for her.

“I will bring the priest. Please stay here for a moment, sir!”

After taking off his winter clothes and wrapping them around the prince, Director Bruno left with an anxious expression.

“I have to move the shaved ice….”

[Didn’t you hear what the idiot said? Don’t talk and keep your mouth shut, you idiot!]

The devil bastard cried in Seongjin’s ear.

[Ugh! Why on earth did this happen? Aside from the eyes, why is my body suddenly in this state?]

‘Oh, I see.’

Seongjin was equally puzzled.

I thought I was taking good care of my body this morning, but why did I suddenly become like this?

To be honest, Seongjin’s condition now was much worse than when he fought the Lycan Slope Lord. Obviously, my father treated me completely once, but why?

‘… Just because I overused the spirit eye?’

The day before, I stayed up all night and used my spiritual eyes, but in the morning, there was nothing wrong except that my eyes were a little tired.

Moreover, I cannot understand the state of his body, which seems to be completely torn apart by auras.

Of course, while running around on shaved ice all day, I overused my Aura, but that wasn’t the first time it happened.

That alone couldn’t fully explain my current physical condition.

‘shaved ice… … .’

okay. shaved ice.

Seongjin’s head, which had been dull due to lack of energy, slowly began to turn.

‘This is the third time in total that I’ve felt such a sharp decline.’

Once at the Canyon Fortress, once at the Ice Wall Base, and the last time when I was just trying to chase down a demon.

This happened right after controlling the shaved ice three times.

‘no way… … .’

Seongjin, who had been unconsciously releasing aura as a habit from the hand holding the ice heart, realized.

I’m finally getting the hang of it.

‘When controlling the shaved ice, I felt a sense of unity as if I was moving my body myself.’

While Bingsu’s body was running wild like that, what if the aurors inside his body were running wild along with him?

Didn’t his Auror reflect Seongjin’s will so easily that he could easily react even unconsciously? So he warned Logan several times to be careful when moving his Aurors.

If a thought was strong enough to move the shaved ice with just a thought, it would not be surprising at all if the auror inside the body also shook in concert with it.

‘Then everything fits together, doesn’t it?’

So, after fighting at the canyon fortress, my condition deteriorated rapidly. And after going overboard once again to catch the devil here, it was now difficult to keep my body in check.

‘Is it a big deal? I think I still need to move the shaved ice one more time.’

If it continues like this, your body might not be able to withstand it.

Seongjin thought as he tried to strengthen the hand holding the ice heart.

‘What if it’s just a moment? I need to clear the way for Logan to catch the demon. The only person here who can do that right now is me… … .’

[…] huh?]

At that time, the demon king who was whimpering screamed loudly.

[Are you thinking about something strange right now? What are you thinking? Why do you think you can’t hear me? Are you planning something bad again?]

Oh, actually, the devil. I thought about it for a moment.

Isn’t the fact that I unconsciously moved my body’s aura because my soul couldn’t completely leave my body?

[…] What are you thinking?]

But if I could leave this body completely.

If only I could control shaved ice like that.

[What are you trying to do now!]

If only I could separate my soul far enough so that my body would not be guided by thoughts.

If that happens, eye injuries will no longer be a problem. I will be able to see with my soul without having to borrow your spiritual eyes.

Once my thoughts were organized, the rest was simple.

Recalling his previous experience of flying to the border of the dimension, Seongjin carefully asked the Demon King.

I ask you to call Seongjin’s spirit from far away. So that he can leave his body as easily as before.

[Are you crazy?]

It was natural for the demon lord to jump around in his head, trying to break his crystal clear.

[You man, do your work! Completely separating the soul from the body? You’re really going to die like this!]

That’s something you don’t know, devil.

I’m doing this so I don’t die. If I make the Aurors run wild one more time, this will really be the end of this body.

[no! I absolutely hate it! Do you think I will do that?]

Don’t worry too much. Because I will definitely come back to this body.

There are still many faces to see. Do you think I will die easily by then?

[Hey, Seongjin Lee!]

Or do you really want to let the Aurors run wild once again and watch this body be torn to pieces?

Is that the result you want?

[you… you… … !]

The demon king, who was trembling, immediately said, “Aaaah!” He let out a scream and flew out of his body.

‘But I can’t think of any other way.’

Seongjin thought as he closed his invisible eyes. She wanted to concentrate as much as possible.

Then, the blood pushed out from the eyelids slowly flows down the cheeks like tears.

‘good. I definitely have a decision to make. ‘The fact that it can be stimulated with medicinal tea clearly means that it is functioning autonomously to some extent.’

I can hear it.

I can hear the devil calling.

I am the next generation oracle. There is nothing in this world that cannot be accomplished through my thoughts!

How many times did I repeat that?

The effort was not in vain, and soon really faint sounds began to be heard through Seongjin’s crystalline flame.

[…] Repent! Repent!]

[Where are you? If you can hear my voice, please respond… … !]

These guys are still doing this.

I want to ask you a serious question. Isn’t life a waste?

[Ugh! Seongjin Lee! See you later! I will never forget today! Sigh!]

Ah, I found it.

hmm. Devil, I actually feel quite sorry for you.

While Seongjin is concentrating all his attention on the devil’s call, suddenly the loud voices of some children ring in his ears. The voices were somehow familiar.

[Good luck dad! Happy Dad! Look at Mores! Sir Sharon!]

[Dad, Your Majesty! Daddy, Your Majesty! Mores is dead! Sir Sharon!]

what? Why is it so familiar?

For some reason, it seems like this has happened often before.

‘Don’t cry, you guys. Everything will be okay in the end.’

I can clearly see that.

With that last thought, Seongjin’s consciousness quickly left his body.

* * *

Wedge! Wedge!

A brilliant silver-blue aura is quickly struck in large concentric circles.

The beautiful sword energy flowing along the sword’s trajectory spread delicately in the air, like flower petals embroidered stitch by stitch.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

A quick sword that stabs into the top again and again.

The overlapping and overlapping lights scatter splendidly and spread in all directions like fluttering flower petals.

Rumble!

Another ice monster collapses helplessly where the flower had bloomed.

But this time there was no loud impact sound like before.

This was because Logan had already finely ground all of his limbs except for the center where his heart was, in case it would harm the knights following him.

“……?”

Logan, who was taking care of Arjuna, glanced up into space as if wondering.

Of course, there was nothing there, but strangely enough, Logan felt that someone’s curious gaze lingered there for a moment.

‘What on earth?’

But there was no time to think for long.

Woooooo-

This is because the Glature Trolls, who had finally identified their target as Logan, rushed towards him, screaming all at once.

Thump thump thump thump!

Several giants rushing towards him at the same time.

It wouldn’t be difficult to deal with them one by one, but if he dodges, the remaining demon beasts will definitely rush straight towards the troops following behind.

then.

‘Cut it into small pieces.’

All the directions they were running from, the ice pillars coming in at various angles, each side without any gaps.

Hwiik-

The silver-blue aura emanating from Arjuna spreads wide like a fan.

At first glance, it looked like it had been swung wide and sideways, but each and every one of them was a fatal ray of light from a quick stab.

The closest extremities of the Glacher Trolls are temporarily sealed.

‘Chop it into small pieces again.’

All surfaces surrounding the pole are sealed.

‘Split it.’

The axis of movement that leads to the extreme point is fundamentally sealed.

Clap la la rock.

Countless fleeting fragments that have been broken into pieces that are difficult to perceive with the mind.

In the Sword Master’s thoughts, all the things that have stopped are listed in a series of continuity. It unfolded before his eyes, one by one, and finally began to come alive in his thoughts.

Arjuna’s traces engraved on each fragment also continue, and eventually become one will that permeates everything.

Puff puff puff!

The legs of the five Glacher Trolls running side by side exploded at once.

Finely broken pieces of ice flew up, and a shock wave was strong enough to shake the entire basin.

“I can’t believe it…!”

Old man Vincent, who was running south with Sir Sebastian, stuck out his tongue.

Dekaron Knight’s eyes were able to carefully examine the prince’s sword even from a distance.

And the results were truly shocking.

‘How can the sword of a prince who is only a young boy contain such deep thoughts!’

Because he was a Dekaron Knight and had not yet become a Sword Master, he was able to recognize Logan’s sword more clearly than anyone else.

That sword contained everything he didn’t have. It is a sword that is capable of reaching the principles of the world.

“I thought it was only Balthazar.”

The old man pursed his lips in exasperation.

Aside from Seonghwang in this Delcross, I thought in my heart that the only person who would be able to attack me was Balthazar in the Imperial Capital.

His level is nothing compared to this!

For the second time in his life, the old man felt the huge wall in front of him.

‘It wasn’t just a success!’

Many years ago. The day when the young emperor unexpectedly visited Lord Sigismund and took away Princess Amelia.

After experiencing the fear of near-instant death for a moment in front of him, old Vincent never set foot in the imperial capital again.

It was a shame, but it was because he was so afraid of meeting Seonghwang, who was much younger than him.

When I first met Prince Mores, what was the reason why I committed the crime of lese majeste? Isn’t it because I felt a vague fear of the majestic spirit that I could never capture at that age?

But here is another one of the same thing!

Isn’t this really crazy and jumping around!

“These people are like monsters. Are all the people in the Seonghwang family monsters like that…?”

Sir Sebastian glanced back at the complaint and said calmly.

“The prince is a sword master.”

“Yeah, I see.”

The old man nodded with a worried expression.

Sword Master.

This was the moment when, in name and reality, the youngest sword master on the continent was officially born.

* * *

Logan, who quickly cleared out the northern Glacher Trolls, headed to the center of the battle line, leaving one or two demon beasts for the knights.

And around that time, he began to sense a faint magical energy in his energy.

A dense vortex of darkness that was clearly different from that of the demonic beasts.

‘Lee Seong-jin was right. There is definitely a devil beyond that mountainside!’

he said

Pursue that first, even at all costs.

Logan caught a glimpse of the Masain and Wolf Knights struggling on the front lines, then jumped up and jumped into the middle of the enemy lines. Like this, he planned to run straight towards the mountainside.

However, the situation that followed was worse than expected.

Crumbling!

Kkkkkkkk!

As if by some kind of order, the Lycan Slopes began to flock towards Logan.

That’s not all.

The Glature Trolls spread evenly across the front line all turned to look at Logan. This meant that the enemies had identified Logan as the top priority for elimination.

‘It’s going to take more time to break through than I thought. Maybe I’ll miss the devil.’

Logan swung Arjuna sharply out of urgency.

Squirt!

All lycan slopes within the wide attack range of the Henesys long sword were instantly cut in half and killed.

At that time, without missing the opportunity, a Glatzer Troll rushed towards Logan.

Boom boom boom!

This was when Logan was reflexively aiming Arjuna at the guy.

Coo!

A Glature Troll suddenly appeared from behind, blocking his path and swinging his fist.

Cluck!

The Glature Troll that was charging at Logan was hit with a counter, and its head and neck were instantly torn apart.

“……!”

Logan blinked for a moment at the shocking sight.

“…Lee Seongjin?”

For some reason, I suddenly remember what Lee Seong-jin said.

-If things don’t work out, I’ll help you.

No, no matter what. no way?

But then the ice monster, which was quickly ahead of Logan, collided with another Glacher Troll running from the side.

Kuaaang!

Tens of tons of ice monsters collided with all their might. There was a terrible noise and an enormous shock wave.

“Is this really Lee Seong-jin? Is this what you call Vince?”

No matter what anyone says, the intentions of this Glature Troll were clear.

Before Logan becomes a single target and is checked, he wants to draw attention to himself first.

At that time, Logan’s eyes briefly fell on the Sigismund family insignia, which was surrounded by an ice monster.

It looked comical because it was covering its back vaguely, but it was also a sight that felt somehow familiar to Logan.

An image of Mores running through the Blue Rose Labyrinth with a red cape clumsily tied around his neck flashed through his mind.

“haha.”

Strange.

I’ve thought about this sometimes, but why do I keep thinking that Lee Seong-jin resembles Mores from his childhood?

Whoa whoa-

At that time, the Glacher Troll blocking the enemy turned to look at Logan.

Although the ice monster had no organs that could be called eyes other than the imperfect outlines of its features, Logan still felt that the Glature Troll was staring at him and giving him all the attention he could.

-good! Hurry and chase after the Magi!

Yes, Seongjin Lee. Of course I intend to.

Logan, who smiled unconsciously, lightly lifted his body up.

And, using the power of kicking one of the lycan slopes as the driving force, it began to shoot forward with great force.
