Overpowered Sword Chapter 197

Level up with swords (197)

―――――――――――!!!

As the shock wave exploded, several meters of water surface was removed, and even the tiles of the surrounding road were peeled off, creating a storm.

Windows shatter several kilometers away.

Instead, several trees that were hit during the night are broken from the waist down.

The clouds flowing overhead are unraveling like skeins of thread.

Even after most of the force has been canceled out, that’s about it. If one of the two technologies had landed on a private house without being intercepted, the shape of the edge of the lake might have changed somewhat differently.

“Sigh!”

Leon was holding his sword in the center of the shock wave.

Dayton El Blanc.

The spearman who was once Clyde’s vanguard, the power of the technique he used for the last time was truly terrifying. Both of my grips had been torn apart a long time ago, so the inside of the gauntlet was damp, and to top it off, my left index finger was bent 90 degrees.

‘It was dangerous.’

With a crunch, I return my bent fingers to their original position.

Although the pain was considerable, Leon did not even lift an eyebrow. The lightning that was cutting through the wall of starlight before his eyes was something he couldn’t take his eyes off of.

A strike that opposes <Hocheon Samyeonseong> despite being old and tired.

The fighting spirit of a dying old man who almost took his life was worthy of respect as a warrior.

Damn.

In a time when even lightning slows down, the end has finally arrived.

It was the window that reached its limit first.

Although Dayton’s Auror Blade turned it into a bolt of lightning, its essence was ultimately a weapon made of mithril. The moment it collided with the <Hocheon Samyeonseong> immediately after enduring hypersonic air resistance, the durability of the dwarven mithril spear eventually reached its limit.

Neither breaking nor melting. From the surface, it scatters into fine dust and disappears.

As if he sensed that the owner’s life was over.

[‘Old soldiers never die. It just disappears’… is it.]

The light began to fade along with El Cid’s faint monologue.

It was a stellar victory.

At the point when the spear, which was like a core, was crushed, the torpedo spear lost its central point and scattered. There is nothing more ridiculous than a window that has lost its density.

Grumble!

Burning the crumbled window with a handful of dust, the aftermath of <Hocheon Samyeonseong> hit Dayton.

The old man, pushed by the shock wave, floated and flew through the air.

After being thrown tens of meters, his landing point was Lake Ladoga.

‘… Did you lose?’

Accepting what would be the final defeat of his life, Dayton blinked his eyes, which he could no longer see clearly.

I could see the night sky.

A clear sky without a single cloud, full of starlight.

‘It’s a pity that I couldn’t save that child, but I guess it’s okay to sleep like this. ‘For such a sinful old man, it was such a good fight.’

This was also the first time I properly used the torpedo spear, a weapon that was conceived to strengthen the strength that was gradually weakening as I got older.

He fought with all his might and was defeated with satisfaction.

The subject who threw everything away and even borrowed money from the evil cult was respected by the young man who would symbolize the next generation. Having lived as a noble noble since birth, he had no more regrets.

‘I’m sorry, son.’

Dayton’s eyes closed as he fell into the lake.

‘This is why I hope to remain by your side until the end… .’

The body that has shaken off all its regrets stops breathing.

At the moment when the soul was about to leave the body, which had reached the end of life.

KRRRRRRRRR――!!

A huge snake jumped out from the middle of Lake Ladoga and swallowed Dayton’s fallen body in one bite.

Its volume is a whopping 50 meters from head to tail.

The black and dusky scales, as if absorbing light, do not even allow reflected light. It would be easy to think that the name <Winter Snake> would have made it red, but within the dimension of permafrost, color was a meaningless concept.

“… … her?”

“… … Eh?”

Leon and Karen both looked at the guy with dumbfounded expressions as the situation unfolded without any time to stop or stop them.

Of course, I can guess its identity.

〈Winter Snake〉.

A monster from another dimension that the evil cult secretly summoned to Radoga territory and attempted to use to cause great chaos within the empire. It was Leon who tried to lure it out of the lake by spreading bait several times, taking advantage of its habit of preying on ‘heat’, but-

‘No, I didn’t know it would come out at this time either.’

[Same. It seems like another variable has arisen somewhere.]

Coincidentally, El Cid was right.

The moment when the “Winter Serpent,” which had been holding back again and again, jumped out of the lake, was when Rupert lost his breath on the other side of the territory.

When the formal leash was completely released, the ‘delicacy’ and another form of power that kept hovering beyond the surface of the water strongly stimulated its appetite.

‘Winter Snake’s food, ‘heat’, is simply energy.

Whether it’s a flame or lightning, if you put it in your mouth, it all becomes food.

And even though he was in a state of death, Dayton was a delicacy that could not be compared to anything that the Auror Master had ever eaten.

Krrrrrr…

Waving its long tongue as if savoring the taste of Dayton, <Winter Snake> looked back at the two remaining prey.

One is a male carrying a ‘delicacy’.

One is a female of unknown flavor.

Either way, it’s extremely appetizing.

“I think things are a little messed up?”

“I think so too.”

As I looked at the guy’s eyes full of appetite, it almost occurred to me that even if we couldn’t speak words, we could understand each other.

After exchanging a few words, Leon and Karen returned to their fighting stance.

Golden and turquoise.

The moment auras of two colors bloom above the blade,

KAAAAAAAAA――!

The “Winter Serpent”, unable to resist the enchanting temptation that seemed to be seduced by two types of delicacies, rushed forward.

A volume of 50 meters.

Unlike its huge body, its movements are fast and light.

Maybe it weighs a lot lighter than that body.

Still, its charge was threatening.

“Karen, go into the shadows!”

Leon unfolded the ‘Icarus Wings’ while giving her instructions.

A pair of flames pushed him into the air, allowing him to escape from the snake’s maw that swept across the earth’s surface.

Kugwagwagwagwagwa!!

The results of a 50-meter snake running at full speed were devastating.

The water of the lake rises like a tidal wave and overflows the area, filling up a round trace like a waterway as the <Winter Snake> passes by.

There was no reward for holding back the power in the fight against Dayton, and the aftermath immediately spread to the center of the territory.

Tremendous noise and shock!

Since this was an incident that occurred without any proper warning, even the residents who were soundly sleeping could not help but be shocked.

‘Still, the purpose of luring it out of the water was achieved.’

Leon calmly looked down at the tragedy and put the situation in perspective.

Even if you regret what has already happened, it cannot be undone.

In that case, we have no choice but to take this situation into consideration and come up with a strategy.

‘… His appetite has been stimulated because of me. ‘I would have appeased my appetite with Lord Dayton, but he is a man who has never faced an adversary before, and if you show your back, he will come after you without hesitation.’

Sure enough, the ‘Winter Serpent’ glared at him from the sky.

KYAAAAAAAAA――!!

As its roar rings out, the temperature drops.

The ‘heat’ remaining in the atmosphere is cooling the area as the energy is absorbed by it.

Immediately after that, the “Winter Serpent” attacked Leon, targeting him.

This is the result of straightening the body over 50 meters.

Pow!

Even so, Leon was not the kind of person who would gently fall into the jaws of a guy who was attacking him in a straight line on an obvious trajectory.

Behind Leon, who simply pulled away, the back fire of <Icarus Wing> appeared, and the man swallowed the flames with pleasure and turned his head again.

It seemed easy to attack him as many times as he wanted.

‘This is it.’

At that time, Leon intuitively realized something.

This way, I can draw him deeper.

Even though we’re out of the lake, it’s too close here.

It was a position where you could run away in seconds if you tried to go back.

“Karen!”

So he shouted loudly to the ground.

“From here, we will lead you to the northern area! Get the civilians in that path out of the way as much as possible! If you encounter Ellahan on the way, tell him to prepare a barrier where you can lure him!”

It’s not that I have any grudges against the lord, but that was the area with the lowest population density. Karen also agreed with his truly heroic remark that he would save more people regardless of his status.

She moved immediately.

It was something I had already done once at Al Control.

Leon watched her as she walked away along with several other clones, and pointed his sword at the ‘Winter Serpent.’

“This way! “You big snake!”

Attacks that can be perceived as threatening should not be made, and appropriate bait should be thrown to prevent the enemy’s eyes from diverting elsewhere.

Sun Sword

Red lotus transplant (two types of red lotus)

Flare

Open your palm, not your sword.

This is because when it passes through the holy sword, its power is imbued with divine power, and it acts as an extreme poison to monsters from outer dimensions. Therefore, the sacred fire contained in the ‘Stigmata of the Purifier’ could not be used either.

The heat collected within the body is gathered together.

The sphere rolled up in the palm of your hand,

“Eat it up!”

It exploded towards the <Winter Serpent>.

Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!

A mass of intense heat, light, and energy was compressed and released, sweeping the creature with its force. It is such a destructive force that even an S-rank dangerous monster cannot avoid serious injury to an ordinary living being.

but.

KYAAAAAA!?

To the heat-eating snake, <Winter Snake>, the waves of flame were nothing more than a feast.

I take a deep breath through my wide-open mouth.

It twists its body and accepts it as a scale.

The snake, which had grown 3 meters taller in an instant, was wildly delighted.

“If you want more, follow me!”

One human and one snake began a chase, flapping their wings even more inflated as if to lure the bastard.

For the Viscounty of Rado, that series of events was a disaster.

Its body length is a whopping 50 meters.

Just wriggling from side to side is enough to collapse dozens of buildings, and even flopping up and down once causes the ground to shake and the road to collapse from the impact.

“Aaaah! “It’s a monster!”

“Run! “Don’t block my path!”

“Go, go to the store! “This is a store that I built from the ground up!”

As I reached the level of an Aura Master, my senses became several times more sensitive and I was able to grasp the full picture of the chaos.

Leon gritted his molars and moved his wings.

If he stops because of cheap sympathy, there will be a level of human casualties that cannot be compared to what is happening now.

‘Faster, more accurate… !’

Feed it several Flares and select the route with the least damage to attract it.

In terms of time, it must have been less than 10 minutes.

However, Leon even broke into a cold sweat.

The burden was enormous because even the slightest mistake could result in hundreds or even thousands of casualties.

“-done!”

Still, he succeeded.

Finally, Leon entered the northern area, landed in a yard where there were no houses, and looked back.

At the same time, the ‘Winter Snake’ rushed in.

KYAAAAAAA――!

Perhaps resentful of having been given the medicine so far, the guy crossed hundreds of meters with his eyes stained red.

Why are you teasing me so much about food?

I will chew you painfully and kill you!

That primal murderous intent shakes the night air,

“My merciful goddess! Grant your grace to this desolate land, and grant it to us, from whom evil cannot escape!”

The sacred law of Elahan that had been waiting for that time was completed.

Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu… !

Light that blooms so much that it can be seen beyond the horizon.

A vortex of brilliant and warm light covered a radius of 1 kilometer, centered on “Winter Serpent” and Leon.

It is a type of sanctuary spell.

A wide area barrier that blocks anyone who is not from this world from entering or exiting.

“It looks like you timed it just right.”

Leon responded to Ellahan’s words with a chuckle.

“Well, it’s always been like that.”

“I am? “I worked really hard too!”

“Of course Karen did a great job too. “She will have a harder time from now on.”

<Winter Serpent>, who was looking around in front of the three people, finally stopped thinking.

I didn’t know what this disgusting light was, but I liked that kind of thing.

It just devours all the food in front of it.

KRAAAAAAAAA—!!!

The ground shakes.

As the earth-shaking roar loses heat, the air freezes, creating an unseasonable fog.

A monster whose very existence distorts natural phenomena.

In front of him, the hero raised his sword.

Kiiiiing!

The frozen air melts in the light and turns into a warm breeze. Holy sword El Cid. The crystallization of power sent down to this land by the goddess, a decisive battle weapon that even the great Holy King Roderick could not make a single scratch on.

The sunlight that emanated from the sword contained such sacred heat that it made even the “Winter Serpent” retreat.

“I’m sorry for keeping you waiting. “From now on, it’s junk food.”

Leon mocked the guy in a dry tone.

“I’ll throw you in until your belly button explodes.”
