Overpowered Sword Chapter 159

Level up with swords (159)

“Do you remember me?”

Jahar smiled beneath his turban.

He still had more than half of his upper body wrapped in bandages, but he seemed to be in better condition than when he couldn’t even get up on his own legs.

As I got closer, I could smell the faint smell of blood.

Even with the Auror Expert’s recovery power, the wound had not completely healed, and the bandages were stained dark red with blood that had seeped out. This would prove that Hatti’s kick was that powerful.

After quickly examining him, Leon was convinced in his heart.

‘It will take at least a month to recover enough to go to battle.’

It was a wound that would have killed him instantly even if it had gone a little deeper.

The level of medical care in the Great Desert was not high, although it would have been better if the treatment, including s*xual treatment, had been perfect immediately after the settlement. At best, all you have to do is set the bones and pour a potion on them.

It was a shame because Jahar was an expert level master, otherwise Hati’s aurors would have burrowed into his body and caused necrosis of his organs.

“This is the first time since the duel that day.”

Leon nodded, agreeing with those words.

Great warrior of the Bedouin people.

Even though he was defeated by Hati, his status and speaking power within the clan were by no means light.

Maybe it will be of great help in this situation.

“I don’t think you’re in a state where you can be active yet, so why did you come to Nuwas City?”

“… “I didn’t know it would be discovered right away.”

“Were you planning on hiding it since you couldn’t even hide the smell of blood?”

“There are rare people who can observe things as calmly as you. “Even if I could just stand up on my own two legs and raise my voice, I don’t think my sword would be any different from usual.”

It was the same as feeling fear rather than opportunity from a wounded beast. Zhuo, cornered, bites the cat, but at the point when he is seriously injured, the beast’s fighting ability is greatly reduced.

Crying more fiercely than usual is also nothing more than an act of protest to avoid a fight.

However, it is difficult to ignore the protest action.

Most people were frightened by the red, bloodshot eyes, growling sounds, fangs sticking out of the mouth, and the bloody smell.

“Well, I never thought it would work from the beginning. Because you are several levels above me and that wolf bitch. Even if we were in perfect condition, we wouldn’t have been able to come out strong.”

Jahar shrugged his shoulders as if it was no big deal.

“Anyway, it turned out just right. Did you ask why I came to Nuwas City? “I just came to see you.”

“me?”

Leon tilted his head at those unexpected words.

“Do you need another witness?”

“no way.”

Jahar said, tapping the table with his index finger.

It was a cautious attitude.

At the same time, he glanced at Hans and Ellahan, as if he wanted to reduce the number of people listening if possible.

“You can trust Mr. Hans and my colleagues. “There is a sense of responsibility, and there is no reason to be an enemy of the Bedouin.”

“Let me trust you for once.”

Zahar, who read his inner thoughts, let out a long sigh.

In some ways, it was a story that could be said to be a family scandal, so it was difficult to bring it out. However, as someone who had to ask for help, I couldn’t choose what to say.

He looked back and forth between Leon and Ellahan and finally opened his mouth.

“… Lahmu and the warriors who followed him have gone missing.”

The two people’s faces hardened, no matter who went first.

“It’s because they say they disappeared, but it’s been a long time since they decided that they were wiped out even within the clan. “All those who encountered the unknown person who started operating a few months ago have disappeared without a trace.”

“How many months has it been that long?”

“The frequency is just increasing. “The mysterious disappearance phenomenon itself has been reported for four months.”

At first it was assumed that it was just an unfortunate accident.

Like being attacked by a sandworm or stepping into Antrion’s territory.

Such incidents, such as a caravan disappearing without a single survivor, were not that rare in the desert.

However, the second or third time was a different story.

The Bedouin people were born and raised in this desert. A mirage can be seen even through the corner of one’s eye, and those with a lot of experience can predict a sandstorm that will hit in an hour. I was able to avoid most accidents with just my abilities.

“thirteen”

“yes?”

“This is the number of Bedouin villages that we have not heard from since last week.”

It was shocking news.

If 13 villages had disappeared, the casualties would have been at least a thousand units. Thousands of lives were lost in just one week, so Ellahan and Leon’s eyes couldn’t help but burn.

At the same time, Leon calmly looked back at the situation.

‘So it’s starting to move properly?’

[Okay, I guess my senses have come back? We have passed the stage of instinctively chasing living things, and have now reached the stage of finding and attacking their habitat. It may still be at a low level, but you will be able to use your head.]

‘It means from now on it’s a race against time.’

<Black Pharaoh>, Nephren Ka was in an incomplete state.

If summoned properly, it would be a Demi-God-level being, but summoning such a being had to pay a fair price.

So the evil cult used the expedient method of summoning it in an imperfect state and eating its life to restore it to its perfect state. To avoid being subjugated in the early stages, they chose a desert with few people, with the intention of provoking conflict between the beastmen and nomads and giving them ‘food’.

[Well, it’s unlikely that he will ever recover to demigod level. I don’t know if the war had broken out according to their plan, but just swallowing up a few villages like it is now is not enough.]

El Cid said.

Even so, it remains a strong enemy. Only by gathering strength from both the grassland and the desert and clashing with all our might will the way be opened.]

Leon nodded his head at those words and listened to Jahar, who was sitting across from him with a somber expression.

“The chief has already ordered the entire village to mobilize and is evacuating everyone from the area where the ‘bastard’ is expected to be heading. “Rather than attack hastily and lose even more of your strength, you want to muster up as much strength as possible and strike his head in one go.”

“That is a wise decision.”

Ellahan also nodded in agreement.

It was truly a bold move.

If it had not been a big deal, it would have been difficult to make a decision quickly as it would have resulted in great losses, but the Bedouin chieftain put that option into practice without any hesitation.

As a result, time was gained for Neprenka to recover.

Jahar said.

“That’s why I came to meet you. Since the guy’s power is unclear, it would be better to concentrate his power as much as possible. “He took on the role of accommodating me who could not stand on the front line due to injury.”

“okay.”

The Bedouin did their best.

Now, then, it was time to share the news he brought.

As Leon started talking, Zahar tilted his head with an expression that made him wonder what this was talking about. He had no choice but to do so. In the meantime, he went to the steppes and participated in a meeting of tribal leaders,

Did you succeed in seeking cooperation? It was nonsense.

I wondered if he was making a joke about this important issue, but my concerns were cut short by one word from Ellahan.

“I guarantee this in the name of the Holy Order. “Everything Leon said is true, and the church plans to fully cooperate with this situation, including supplying food and dispatching Seongcheolsaegi knights.”

Jahar, with his eyes wide open, jumped up and shouted.

“Well, is that really true?!”

“At this place, the goddess and Seongcheolsae’s

“Can I swear on your name?”

“… There is no need to even do that. Let me believe it. “I’m so excited for one and the whole place gets so heated, my brain can’t keep up.”

I thought it would be enough to get support from a few strong players at the guild level, but full cooperation between the Holy Church and the Beastman Tribe?

It was an achievement that far exceeded expectations.

It was a shame that it wasn’t a result achieved on my own, but I couldn’t have hoped for more than this with a body that was difficult to move around. As Zahar thought so, he calmed his rough breathing.

As the blood heated up by excitement cools, reason quickly returns.

It was not difficult for him to see through the hidden meaning of the news Leon brought him.

“―It seems you have decided that we, the Bedouin, will not be able to handle this situation.”

Leon did not deny that.

“Yes, it is highly likely that the <Evil Church> was involved.”

Then Jahar grabbed the back of my neck and groaned.

“It’s an evil cult… Well, there’s another troubling news. If what you say is true, I need to quickly convey the message to the chieftain.

“It would be dangerous for us to attack him by ourselves.”

“Are you nearby?”

“It’s not that far away. “If I ride a camel day and night, it will take about four days.”

The Bedouin chief is the head of the nomads.

If you can negotiate with him, it will be possible to coordinate the two forces without other people having to intervene and worry.

Leon and Ellahan looked into each other’s eyes.

With all my heart.

Ellahan, realizing what he was going to say, smiled softly.

“Lord Jahar.”

“hmm?”

“Can you come with me to see the Chief?”

“Of course. This was something I wanted to ask, but I didn’t know you would do it. In that case, prepare to depart immediately as soon as the preparations are completed—”

“There is no need for that. “Every minute and every second is urgent, so taking four days would be a waste of time.”

“what?”

Leon grinned at Zahar’s questioning voice.

“Let’s get there within a day.

* * *

The center of the great desert.

There, surrounded by as many as four oases, there was a prosperous village with over 10,000 people.

Amarh.

It is where the core members of the Bedouin live and where all decisions are made. Even though it does not rain all year round, the oasis never dries up or is subject to sandstorms, so many people considered it sacred land.

It was also the place where the Bedouin chieftain stayed.

“How is the evacuation of the tribesmen going?”

At the words of the chief sitting at the head table, the Bedouin elders spoke with their eyes fixed on the carpet.

“So far, 38 villages have completed the evacuation and have been guided to an oasis near the border of the grasslands.”

“What about the rest of the villages?”

“There are 17 villages where dispatched dispatches have not been returned, and 89 villages where evacuation is in progress. Villages that did not move despite the mobilization order… .”

“Leave it alone. They say my life is not a waste, so there is no reason for me to bow down and give up. “They’re like idiots.”

As the Bedouin chieftain grumbled with a fierce look on his face, the elders could not even make a fuss and bowed deeply.

Master of the Great Desert.

A person who, with his natural talent and experience, crossed the threshold of becoming an Aura Master and single-handedly cut down more than a thousand warriors and ascended to the position of chieftain. A being that young people who don’t know anything look up to, and those who remember the bloodshed fear.

<Tyrant>, Al Razaz was him.

“In my heart, I want to run out and stab myself, but I have a feeling that if I do that, I will definitely die.”

“… … .”

“My intuition has never been astray since ancient times. If this continues, we will all die. “I don’t know what that monster is doing, but if I have to, I have no choice but to throw it all away and run out into the meadow.”

“Chief, Chief. If that happens, the beast people… ”

Al Razaz growled, glaring at the elder who opened his mouth.

“They will attack. Do you think I said that because I didn’t know that? The side that goes to war with them will survive more. The beastmen have room for negotiation, but that monster just eats them all and that’s the end. Even if it’s dirty and deadly, surviving is the priority.”

Al Razaz, who fired harshly, fell into thought again.

‘Damn it, I can’t afford it. There isn’t enough food to feed the people we evacuated, and even if we spend all the money we have, we won’t be able to last 15 days.’

Even the sword master’s force cannot feed the entire tribe.

He also wants to avoid war with the beast people.

The Beastmen, each of whom could be said to be an outstanding warrior, were not an easy opponent.

If there is an all-out war, they will inevitably suffer great damage, and at least half of them will die before they can find a place to live in the steppes. If it weren’t for his strength, I might have survived 10%, let alone half.

‘Jahar.’

As he was contemplating, the name of a warrior flashed through his mind. This is the guy sent to the guild and outsiders to seek cooperation.

To be honest, I didn’t have high expectations.

Since I was not fit to fight, I was given a mission that would take me to the rear, and I did not expect an opportunity to overcome this obstacle.

But as I get closer to the edge of the cliff, I think of him.

A feeling of anticipation comes to mind.

It was such an absurd idea that he himself laughed.

“hmm”

It was then.

The Aura Master’s senses caught the sight of a figure approaching from the distant sky.

It is a being that flies at incredible speeds.

The power it contained was also unusual.

Before I saw it with the naked eye, I almost thought it was Drake.

“person… is it?”

Al Razaz ran out of the barracks and saw the figure.

The shadow is getting closer.

Although it was smaller than an ant, it was clearly a person.

And as the distance got shorter, I felt one more presence.

The power of the being in close contact was so vast that it was the presence of a person I didn’t even know existed.

The samurai I was thinking about a moment ago.

Even the fact that he is shaking unsteadily due to injury is the same.

It was right after that.

Fuuuuuuuuuuu–!!

Leon, who lifted Zahar up with his golden wings flapping behind his back, landed in front of Al Razaz.

The wind pressure raised a cloud of dust, but with a wave of his hand, Al Razaz immediately subsided. An Aura Master can even destroy natural phenomena with a single gesture.

Next, Al Razaz and Leon’s eyes met.

‘strong!’

Leon saw him and unconsciously grabbed the hilt of his sword.

It was his instinct as a warrior.

If Al Razaz attacks, if you are not prepared, you will die before you can even survive.

It was a different force from Karen’s secretiveness and Ellahan’s grandeur.

In front of Leon, who was sweating coldly, Al Razaz.

“Hahahahaha!!”

Suddenly he started laughing like crazy.
