Level up with swords (127)
――――――――!
There was no sound.
There was no shock.
Without even the feeling of having cut something, the light and heat pouring out from Brave’s blade swept the entire area.
How many more seconds passed like that?
When the light that had been burning his eyelids faded, Leon carefully opened his eyes. The power that had been flowing into his grasp was cut off, and perhaps due to his mood, the weight seemed to have become lighter.
“ah… !”
When his blurry vision became clear, Leon was able to see the crater created by his slash.
The land that evaporated into a spherical shape.
It looked like the sun had gone down.
Brave’s flash cut out only the portal connected to the ‘Mirror Canyon’, and did not emit heat or shock beyond that range. This is because Leon’s fear of the mine collapsing led the sword.
Crispy.
Then, Brave’s sword body, which had released all its strength, was broken into pieces like thin ice. The body made of special metal scattered like sand, leaving the sword with only the handle intact.
Jugendsteel No.111 ‘Brave’.
The sword created with a groundbreaking idea by the Grand Meister of Prefecture has finally fulfilled its role after hundreds of years.
‘Blacksmith Alecto.’
Thanks to his legacy being passed down intact for hundreds of years, Jugend’s crisis was able to be resolved.
It’s a relationship from 300 years ago.
If only Rodrik had not argued with the dwarves, if Alecto had not vowed to beat him once, and if Irexana had not told Leon about his accomplishments.
Countless coincidences and inevitability combined to overcome malice.
As a warrior, it was a moment that made my heart swell.
[Disciple.]
At that time, El Cid couldn’t control his curiosity and asked.
[You said earlier that you knew why Alecto made Brave a one-time use, right? because?]
‘Oh, that? It was surprisingly simple.’
[Say it without hesitation. Who on earth did you learn it from?]
‘… ‘Why don’t you take care of your conscience first?’
Leon, who laughed at the shameless sound, explained.
‘You said that, right? Except for the holy sword, there is no weapon that could not be destroyed with one swing.’
[Well, that’s right.]
‘So that’s what Mr. Alecto thought. Since it breaks once you swing it anyway, there wouldn’t be any problem if you create a weapon that breaks in one go from the beginning.’
[Ugh… ?]
It sounded far-fetched, but it wasn’t wrong.
Even El Cid was speechless and dazed for a moment.
‘And although the Holy Sword itself is strong and has the power to defeat external enemies, it does not have the function of maximizing the firepower of a single blow like the Brave. As far as one blow goes, it surpassed the Holy Sword – isn’t that something that can’t be said?’
[…] … .]
‘It’s my expectation, so Mr. Alecto’s true intentions may be a little different, but… At least I thought so. How about you?’
El Cid was silent for a moment.
His memory is such that even if he saw someone not 300 years ago, but 3,000 years ago, he can recall them as if they had met him yesterday.
A dwarf who was stubborn, stubborn, and more eccentric than the others.
Alecto’s grumpy face was strutting towards him.
What do you think, I won this time? do.
[…] under!]
It’s absurd, I’m appalled by the shamelessness.
El Cid laughed.
[Hahahahaha! That bastard is real!]
I could think of dozens more arguments to refute.
They could have scolded me for handing out consumables as if they were swords.
But El Cid just laughed.
The sword that was forcibly created 300 years ago by an idiot who had only met him a few times opened the way for him to become a disciple in this world.
[okay! I lost, you pudgy bastard!]
Even though I was admitting defeat to someone for the first time, I was so cheerful that, if I had a body, I would burst out laughing until my abs were all numb.
How happy Alecto would have been to hear that.
He wandered all over the place saying he wanted to tell other people, and he probably didn’t let go of a beer glass in his hand for an entire year. El Cid laughed out loud, hoping that he was somewhere listening.
“It was a wonderful blow, warrior.”
Irexana suddenly came to his side and smiled.
“You have completely destroyed the bishop-level death spell.”
“It wasn’t my power, it was ‘Brave’s’ power.”
Leon said, showing the long sword with only its handle remaining.
“The sword that the Cardinal’s father left me saved this country. “It was a treasured sword that exalted the name of Jugend and was so wonderful that even Holy King Roderick admitted defeat.”
“… “I’m really glad you said that.”
Irexana’s calm voice became slightly wet.
“He was someone who said he wanted to pat King Seong until the day he died, so he must have been pleased with the warrior’s words.”
Did an old memory come to mind?
Irexana put her hands together as if praying and her expression immediately changed.
It’s good to exchange good words, but there are still issues that haven’t been resolved.
He looked at Leon and brought up the topic.

“It was
Because they were concentrating on conquering the Great Mine, the level of the chase team was not that high. Those belonging to the Chaos sect who are good at deceiving and tricking may all get away.
As a result, a bloody storm would blow across the continent.
At that moment, Leon thought of a good idea.
“Cardinal, please wait a moment.”
“yes?”
When he grasped the handle of the holy sword without answering, El Cid, who read his meaning, immediately drew a map of the continent in the air.
A map with various colored markings.
Among them, I looked for something moving near the Jugend border, and indeed, there was a yellow mark moving. 『Dosangeomrim』, they are the cultists of 〈Chaos〉 who have amassed over a hundred magic swords.
‘It’s too late. Even if we chase them by airship from now on, it will take a full day, and they will have crossed over to another country before then.’
Leon, who had been following the mark with a nervous expression, soon discovered another unexpected mark and his eyes widened.
how? Rather than wondering, I thought, ‘Is it true?’
I didn’t know why the arrival was delayed, but it makes sense.
“I think we can rest assured, Cardinal.”
“What do you mean?”
“Do you see the flashing yellow sign next to the border line and the golden hammer sign blocking the way?”
“Yes, I can see it.”
When I explained the meaning to Irexana, who did not know the English language, she also smiled and sighed in relief.
It had to be that way.
Have you ever encountered a tiger while trying to avoid a wolf?
The evil cultists of
* * *
On the border of the Kingdom of Jugend, on the outskirts of Area 13, there was a carriage running without hesitation.
It was a suspicious carriage, without a single emblem, let alone a flag.
That’s not all.
The horses pulling the carriage had their eyes bright red and foaming at their mouths, pacing their feet like crazy. There was no doubt that he was caught up in the power of ‘madness’.
The people sitting in the coach seat were talking noisily.
“Whahahaha! run! “Faster!”
“okay! Run hard and die!”
maniac.
They were a people that could only be described as such.
Hair dyed in several colors, unfocused eyes, and even an outfit that lacks uniformity. If I stayed in the slums, I would immediately be treated as a drug addict.
They are the madmen who are shunned even within the evil sect. The third sect is the followers of Chaos.
“Hey, buddy!”
“Why are you calling me, friend?”
They rhymed with bullshit like two madmen playing together.
“I’ve been thinking about this for a long time, but I think the brothers of ‘Despair’ and ‘Destruction’ are extremely wasteful. “Isn’t that right?”
“oh! “I wasn’t the only one who thought that!”
“yes? Am I right? word? Yes, horses! You guys, please say something! “I’ll give you carrots as a reward!”
Naturally, there was no way the words that had been ‘maddened’ would respond, so the two madmen continued to complain about missing screws.
“This world is our toy box! The brothers don’t enjoy it and pour it out like bitter water! “It’s a bit like this again. What are you going to do if Youth collapses all at once?”
“that’s right! “There is no other toy as fun as Youth!”
“I don’t like the idea of releasing spiders in places where they can’t be seen! “Why did you hide the surprise gift so deeply?”
“We’re not going to do that, are we, buddy?”
“Of course, buddy!”
The maniac shouted, excited by his colleague’s response.
“Let’s go to the desert this way!”
“desert? “It’s hot!”
“I’m going to die! That’s why it’s better! Let’s give those toys to people as gifts! To those who are waiting for war!”
The western continent was now a vortex of conflict due to the conflict between the indigenous nomadic tribes, the beast people, and many other issues.
If more than a hundred magic swords were spread across that chaotic land, the tension that had been tightly drawn would snap and those who had lost patience would chase the scent of blood.
Sisanhyeolhae (屍山血海).
If the corpses piled up in war form a mountain and the blood flows like a river, their purpose will be achieved and a great deal will remain.
“It’s okay to be the crazy emperor of an empire, but there are other brothers around him! “If we get closer, they’ll definitely tell us to f*ck off again!”
“Friend, you are right! “Let’s go to the desert!”
“You understand my feelings, friend!”
As the madmen hugged each other and made a fuss, the sun in the sky looked down at them indifferently.
No, it might be wrong to say that I was indifferent.
“ok?”
Then the madman looked ahead and tilted his head.
It is a carriage that runs without pulling the reins once.
If there was someone standing in front of him with just one body, he would be immediately noticed.
She was standing on the road, where there wasn’t much room to get out of the way. The saint was dressed neatly in her black habit, with her hands clasped together.
―Deus Lo Vult.
With three words of prayer.
Paaaaaaaaaaaaat!
An enormous wave of light exploded.
Seongcheolswae (聖鐵碎).
When the Holy Church’s strongest holy magic machine revealed its power, there was no room to block or dodge. The Chaos cultists abandoned the carriage a beat late, but even their evasion range was within the range of light.
1 second later.
The light of judgment subsided.
“-I am the iron mace, the one who shakes off the taint from what the Goddess looks upon. “With each swing, I think ten times, and I look up to the sky without a single trace of shame.”
Elahan, now fully armed, folded his hands and finished a brief prayer of self-reflection.
“Please look over this condemnation, merciful goddess.”
Ellahan, holding the Seongcheolswae again, looked ahead.
The carriages, evil cultists, and weapons steeped in malice that evaporated with her blow were good.
These were things not worth remembering even for a moment.
Take a few steps forward.
Breathing in the air purified by divine power, Ellahan knelt down on one knee in front of the horses lying limp on the ground.
“… “Pity me.”
With the death of the evil cultists, the ‘madness’ was lifted, but it was already too late.
There were conditions that could not be corrected even with restorative methods.
“I’ll at least relieve some of the pain. “Leave in peace.”
Ellahan stroked the four horses one by one, channeling divine power into them until their hearts stopped.
Then the words, which were twitching with pain, immediately became quiet.
Although animals could not speak human language, Ellahan felt gratitude in their hollow eyes. After closing every last one of her eyes with her own hands, she stood up.
Clap!
As the 〈Sacred Barrier〉 helmet falls back, silver hair overflows.
Ellahan suddenly opened his helmet and planted the Seongcheolsae into the ground.
And then he put his hands together.
“Goddess, please guide the way.”
At the same time, Seongcheolsoe fell in one direction, and Ellahan’s eyes also turned in that direction.
It was in the direction of Area 1, the center of the Kingdom of Jugend.
“at las… !”
Ellahan jumped up and down with an expression filled with deep emotion.
A ‘revelation’ came in the middle of the night, and I waited and waited for several nights on this desolate road.
My desire to meet the warrior went far away, but I had no choice as the goddess told me to stay there. As a result, an incident that would have devastated the entire continent was prevented.
“I’m not satisfied because I feel like I’m in charge of disposing of leftovers.”
When Ellahan, with a pouting expression, reverse-summoned
There was no longer any reason to stop now.
The golden eyes sparkled strongly, reflecting the light.
“But from now on, you can fight together with the hero, right?”
With clear eyes like an innocent child, she immediately bent down and kicked the ground with both legs as hard as she could.
There was a sound of the ground breaking like a cookie.
Paaaaang!
Leaping over the sound in one leap, the saintess, leaving behind a cloud of dust, began to advance towards Area 1.
It was a sight that anyone would doubt their eyes if they saw it.
The meeting between Leon and Ellahan was not far away.
