The Returned Sword King Decided to Become a Tyrant Chapter 137
Massacre (4)
I felt a little bit absurd.
What are you planning to do with such an unhealthy body?
“You want to kill me?”
“How dare you show off in front of me… …!”
Marquis Carlos shouted with bloodshot eyes.
“I know you’re just trying to buy time with conversation, but at this distance, you should be able to cut me down hundreds of times before your escort arrives!”
Swish-
He looked as if he was about to be shot at any moment, lowering his posture and raising his sword and shield, which gave off a murderous vibe.
The same was true for the Auror Blade.
I’ve already completely scanned the surrounding atmosphere… Is this it?
As I shrugged my shoulders, the bastard spat out the blood and dirt that filled his mouth.
“I commend you for launching a surprise attack using explosives! But it was your own fault for coming here alone without thinking that there would be any survivors!”
“I see. It was definitely an unexpected situation.”
“I will cover up your mistake of revealing the location of this place with your neck!”
As if I wasn’t going to waste any more time.
The bastard’s spirit appeared before my eyes, blurring and flashing with blue light.
Despite his serious injuries, his speed was incredibly fast, befitting a divine being that transcended human standards.
visor-!
“… … !”
But it was just a pitiful gesture.
The flash of light he swung did not achieve the desired goal.
Because I blocked it just by leisurely raising my sword.
“Wh, what… … !”
At first, my reaction was simply disbelief.
That would be the case, since there was nothing that the Sword Master’s aura could not cut, and he had never experienced the phenomenon of his sword being blocked before.
Obviously, the situation just now was something that was beyond his common sense… a bizarre situation.
But that wasn’t the end of it. When I realized what happened next, I couldn’t help but doubt my eyes.
Woof─
“Th-That aura… … .”
“You seem to be mistaken about something.”
Two swords intersecting each other with blue justice and bloody murderous intent.
My face visible beyond that place.
“… … Sword Master?”
“I was just asking if you ‘the likes of’ could kill me.”
… … He must have been laughing nonchalantly, as if he found it so funny.
“… … !”
visor-!
The bastard hastily pushed away the friction sword and stepped back.
The aftermath produced a spectacle of wounds bursting open, but there seemed to be no time to care about it.
“Wow, fantasy… … No… … This power is really… … .”
Only twenty-one years old.
It was an impossible age to realize the ‘ultimate’ of martial arts. It’s not just difficult to say that it’s difficult, it’s that time doesn’t allow it.
… … Then what on earth is the opponent in front of me?
How on earth can you use an Aura Blade, and on top of that, block your own sword so easily?
“Dude, how on earth did you guys reach the level of Sword Master… … .”
“Looking at that, it seems like the Federation Empire still hasn’t noticed my realm.”
“Ma, tell me! What kind of sorcery have you used!”
“Well, it’s not that hard to tell.”
At that question, I raised the corners of my mouth as if I was laughing.
And then he kindly conveyed his meaning.
“But I don’t think there’s any point in explaining it to someone who’s going to die soon.”
“… … You!”
Pot-!
Swoosh-
Are you trying to say that what you saw was an illusion?
Marquis Carlos drew on his strength and kicked the ground again.
“This attack will be impossible to block… …!”
And this time, what the guy was swinging was not a sword, but a shield.
The shield he was holding and his nickname of ‘Sword of Guardian’ were not in vain, as his specialty of freely using the sword and shield to drive away his opponents was completely drained from his hands.
In fact, ‘Bash’, which instantly strikes down enemies with a shield filled with aura, has shown its power in countless battlefields.
How many dead knights were there in that technique?
Not only was its destructive power enormous, but its speed was also something that no one could match.
……but.
visor!!
“What an obvious attack.”
“Ugh!”

I lightly knocked it away, disrupting the guy’s posture.
It was as simple and familiar as twisting a child’s wrist.
Swish!
“Shit!”
It didn’t stop there, the blade swung in and swung towards the guy’s neck.
In that situation, all the guy could do was forcefully raise his shield and defend his vital points.
Because the superhuman’s mysterious physical abilities were no match for an opponent of the same master level.
visor!
Kwajik-!
“Hoo.”
Eventually, the shield, which had been subjected to excessive impact, broke at its lifeline instead of its vital point.
And at the same time, the blood that burst out of the wound due to the impact spread like fog.
Sparks flew from Marquis Carlos’ eyes.
“… … You!”
“Well, even if it’s injured, it’s still a beast.”
“What on earth is that sorcery! How did you knock down the shield!”
“It’s witchcraft… … .”
So far, no one has survived a shield attack unscathed. And it was highly unlikely that anyone would survive a sincere attack.
That’s what it means to have reached the pinnacle of skill.
But he brushed it off as if he had expected it.
It was difficult to consider his skills as normal, as he was using the Auror Blade at the age of twenty-one.
I understand. Even I wouldn’t be able to believe it easily.
However.
“You say you can’t do it, so call it witchcraft… … How ridiculous.”
That’s just escapism.
“What?”
“Seeing as you don’t think about the low level of your realm, are you really only half-baked?”
“How dare you!”
Actually, I was having fun with this series of situations.
To be exact, the bastard’s existence was soothing my boredom and satisfaction.
It’s been a really long time since I’ve faced a master-level enemy.
“There was always a curiosity somewhere. How effective would my new power be against a Master-level player?”
“……what?”
“And how easily you can kill your opponent.”
“… … .”
Marquis Carlos’s face hardened.
The sticky murderous intent that gradually seeps out… … .
And I am feeling the power of that mighty aura with my whole body.
Yeah, it’s like that.
‘… … lab rat.’
It was nothing more, nothing less.
“Thank you, I appreciate it. It cleared up my curiosity.”
“Wh… what… what… .”
“Well, it’s a shame that he’s on the verge of death, but I think a Sword Master would be able to fully display his abilities even with wounds of that magnitude.”
Hooooooooooooooo!
So finally.
The wind element and aura inherent in the magic seal met to create a bloody gust of wind.
The sight of it wrapping around the sword was truly wondrous, and it was also a threat he had never known before.
I lifted it leisurely and slowly opened my mouth.
“I hope those great defenses can stop this.”
“… … !”
“It would be a shame to end it with just one experiment.”
… … and it swung.
Kugugugugugugu!
“Kwaaah!”
The small gust of wind quickly grew in size and soon began to tear at the guy like a storm of blades.
He cut and blasted the guy’s body like a hyena, mercilessly mauling him.
In it,
Woohoo!
A blue aura flashed for a moment, attempting a final counterattack, but it was no use.
It was just a reflex movement. The pitiful body had already lost consciousness.
It was so faint, like a match disappearing into the waves.
“It’s the end.”
Sling-
I muttered as I sharpened the sword that had been shot.
……death.
That was the last ugly memory left with the guy.
It was a sad ending that did not fit the glorious name of the Sword of Guardians.
After that, even your honor from your lifetime will be trampled on.
“Know it as an honor. You are the first to die to me twice.”
Yes, even in the war before the return, the guy died by my hand.
Just like now, I couldn’t even rebel and was torn apart in vain.
‘Well, even I didn’t expect something like this to happen.’
I turned around with a smirk.
Okay, then… … .
“Don’t we still have work to do?”
“Eek!”
Count Vlad, who had regained consciousness due to the tremendous shock, was already crawling on the floor.
What’s more, the guy’s pants were soaking wet, as if to show his fear.
“S, save me… … .”
“You want me to save you?”
“please…….”
“But that wouldn’t be fun.”
“Wh, what… … .”
I looked at the figure expressionlessly and then continued speaking in a flat voice.
“I’d rather make you regret not dying in there.”
As I spoke like that, my lips were suddenly showing a deep smile.
* * *
The capital’s square.
There were numerous torches and crowds of people there just before the sun set.
They were spectators who came to enjoy today’s festival.
Groan, grumble-
The noise of the crowd slowly grew, and the crowd in the square also grew accordingly.
It was said that the time was ripe.
“Take it and go.”
“insect!”
“Ugh, ugh… … !”
The body of Count Vlado is dragged away by the knights in vain.
The struggle to resist by twisting the body was in vain.
There was no way he could overcome the power of the royal knights, and there was no way he could resist with his body covered in torture wounds.
Finally, the guy became quiet only after he was forced to kneel in the center of the square.
“… … .”
As the main character appeared on stage, the crowd’s murmur grew louder.
Perhaps it was a moment of silence in anticipation of what would happen later.
“Count Blado! You are accused of plotting a rebellion with Count Asus and collaborating with a foreign country, and you are sentenced to death according to the laws of the kingdom!”
“Huh!”
“Ahem… … !”
Public execution.
It was the most dishonorable punishment for those who were called nobles, and a fitting end for traitors who had plotted a rebellion.
At that moment, the body of the kneeling man was seen sinking silently.
He was gagged and his entire body was bound, so he attempted suicide by holding his breath.
I looked at it and laughed.
“Force them to stop.”
“All right.”
puck!
“Ugh, ugh!”
Criminals have no human rights or honor.
The guy gasped for breath involuntarily as the knight kicked his stomach mercilessly.
“You are not even allowed to commit suicide.”
“Big… … .”
okay.
Revenge must always be carried out by ‘my own hands’.
But this was today’s ‘main dish’.
Before that, you’ll need an appetizer to whet your appetite.
I gave orders by waving my hands.
“Go up!”
“Anyone who is late will be killed on the spot!”
Then, a group of people tied with ropes walked onto the stage one after another.
The four nobles who met my death earlier and the Viscount Blado’s family were all members of the family.
Those guys were also destined to be executed here.
“Watch carefully. Their future is like your future.”
“Ugh… … Ugh!”
Swish.
I drew my sword and walked towards them.
How funny were the looks on their faces as they faced death… … .
“Let this also be known as an honor.”
Normally, I should have been beheaded by some unknown knight, but today in particular, I decided to carry out the sentence with my own hands.
The reason was simple.
Because that side is a good example.
Crunch- rustle-
Nobles who have their throats cut off according to a certain rhythm.
Every time, the inside of the square, engulfed in madness, was filled with passionate joy.
The more he did this, the more the face of Count Vlado, who was forced to look at the sight, turned ashen.
Swish-
So the blood on the floor started to rise.
Finally, as the sun was almost setting, the sky began to turn red.
Finally, it was the guy’s turn.
“There are only four of you left.”
“… … .”
Those venomous eyes that were raised upwards.
Are you not even going to rebel anymore?
It seemed as if he had something to say, so I took the gag off his mouth.
“What about the will?”
“… … Don’t think this is the end.”
“You’re saying something so obvious again.”
The corners of my mouth went up.
The people I killed were those who were cooperating with Asus at the ‘present point in time’.
But before the regression… …that is, right before I died, there was still a bunch of nobles standing behind him.
It meant that my revenge was not over yet.
“Well, I’ll listen to what you’re saying, but it’s the Federation Empire and the Fourth Prince.”
It’s just as the guy said. It was just the beginning.
This was only the first stage of revenge, and death would continue to follow.
… … Not a single one.
Until those who have insulted me are no longer left on this earth.
It was the same with the Federal Empire.
“Tell Asus I said hello. You’re the ninth.”
Crunch-
The end of this brutal massacre was the beginning of a new revenge.
