Star-Embracing Swordmaster Chapter 122

Resize text-+=

Blue eyes with stars

Broken fragments are noisy in the night sky.

The divine protection of a white snake that shines loudly with him.

And there was a magic circle with a messy crack right in front of it.

‘This······.’

Beyond the broken magic circle, Geronimo with a pale complexion was stretching out his arms.

The red color on his pure white lips is vivid.

“Vlad! “Come to your senses!”

My vision is not focused properly.

I felt like something warm was flowing down my forehead.

“shit!”

The sound of Auguste dragging himself out seems to be heard from far away.

As my vision slowly returns, I can see the elves rushing towards Nidhogg.

“Off…”

“How many do you see? How many fingers do you see in me?”

It’s hard, sharp, and cunning.

The most powerful enemy I’ve ever faced.

Nidhogg was like a huge wall that Vlad could not overcome.

“I’m not sure about his fingers, but first of all, that guy had three toenails.”

“······good. wake up.”

Auguste lifted Vlad up, looking at his blue eyes that were shaking but had regained focus.

This young knight has not lost his spirit yet.

“He’s going up!”

“Throw the noose!”

Nooses thrown from everywhere along with shouting.

However, only a few dozen elves could not stop Nidhogg’s rough advance.

Ahhh!

With Nidhogg’s roar resounding, the elves fell to and fro.

Ropes were tangled around his neck, feet, and here and there, but it was not enough to stop Nidhogg, who was crazy with hunger.

The elves pulling the rope were being dragged around mercilessly.

“Can you do it?”

“······At least once.”

Hearing Auguste’s words, Vlad quickly checked his condition.

The armor was half broken, but the white snake’s protection was still shining faintly.

Rutger’s sword was creaking as it waved ominously, but it had not yet lost its sharpness.

Perhaps you will be able to fulfill your role at least once.

“Do you know how to climb a tree?”

“Because I’m from the city.”

“Then it would be good to learn it this time.”

Auguste and Vlad’s eyes were looking at the same place.

A terrible thing climbing the World Tree under the moonlight.

The screams of the spirits heard from above were pitiful.

“now!”

Elves swaying back and forth while holding on to a rope.

An old and young knight ran out between them.

The two people, who started from the ground but had their eyes on the sky, closed their left eyes without anyone taking the initiative.

Two stars were twinkling behind the dragon climbing towards the sky.

“Yes you bastard!”

Auguste, who arrived first in a straight line, quickly jumped up near Nidhogg’s tail and plunged his sword into it.

It couldn’t be called a weak point, but it was the weakest part.

Maybe this is where I can catch his attention and divert him.

Ahhh!

Nidhogg’s pupils narrowed vertically as he felt a tingling sensation coming from behind.

“Tsk!”

The dizzily approaching tail is scary.

In a situation where he had to hold on to the tree with one hand, Auguste did his best to avoid it.

Whoa whoa!

Nidhogg’s tail was barely avoided.

However, thorns fly beyond the constantly fluttering tree fragments.

Auguste exhaled thoughtfully as he watched Nidhogg’s attack, which he had already experienced once.

“I was wondering why that didn’t come out.”

Auguste’s raised eyes were shining blue.

The original intention of detecting weaknesses is to find the optimal path.

Auguste’s eyes saw a path shining through the dense flying thorns.

It was the only way to avoid Nidhogg’s flying thorns.

“Sigh!”

The old body creaked between the young thorns of evil.

Auguste’s movements, cleverly avoiding thorns that were faster than arrows, were already almost magical.

“······!”

Vlad makes a big comeback following the curve.

Vlad, who had arrived on top of Nidhogg, saw Auguste’s movements through his closed left eye.

The dragon’s roar and the world tree’s trembling.

And his world, shining under the pitiful moonlight, was approaching as a powerful scene.

It was deeply imprinted in Vlad’s world.

“Now! “Vlad!”

“······!”

Auguste’s afterimage still remains.

Vlad quickly fell towards Nidhogg’s head before the afterimage disappeared.

Ahhh!

see.

It was as faint as a shadow, but the path reached you.

Vlad’s right eye, which was wide open, began to glow blue.

“what?”

Regardless of Auguste’s panic, Vlad calmly charged towards Nidhogg’s horn.

Wow!

Rutgar’s sword falls to pieces.

Nidhogg’s lips twitched as he looked at Vlad, who had lost his thorn.

Laughter towards humans.

However, the target of that ridicule was still glaring coldly at him.

Humans were not stopping.

“······!”

Even though it was creaking, I thought it would hold up for once.

That was the only way I saw.

“Hwaaaap!”

Vlad’s right hand began to sparkle among the scattered sword fragments.

The white lightning that started from Vlad’s hand struck mercilessly towards the greedy eyes.

“Try laughing again!”

The feeling of a sharp cutting blade.

A powerful sword because it is short.

Before he knew it, Jorge’s drawn dagger was digging into Nidhogg’s eye.

Ahhh!

Finally, Nidhogg’s pained howl echoed high among the World Trees.

The blue-eyed knight managed to create a blemish on a being that was destined for perfection.

It was Vlad’s swing towards the huge wall blocking him.

“die—!”

Vlad of Shoara is me, but Vlad of the back alleys is also me.

Vlad did not hide the dark memories that formed his roots.

Jorge’s shining dagger.

Nidhogg’s eyes were bursting open with a single gesture from Vlad.

Ahhh!

Die, you bastard!

Two dragons were howling at each other from each of their wounds.

I kill you today.

I will kill you!

“this!”

The painful struggles are intense and the panicked movements are large.

Auguste ended up losing his way due to Nidhogg struggling and giving out everything he had.

Auguste, who had even lost his walking space, could no longer help Vlad.

“be careful!”

With a single warning, a star that opened the way for the young knight was falling below the World Tree.

With dark red blood flowing from where he last cut.

“shit!”

Vlad had no time to worry about Auguste falling.

Nidhogg’s eyes were shining fiercely towards the one remaining enemy.

bang! Quang! bang! bang!

The world tree was shaking mercilessly.

Nidhogg, who had no way to remove Vlad from above his head, was striking the young World Tree with his sharp horns.

Vlad was shaking violently, and blood was spraying from his burst eyes.

“Ugh!”

Vlad was waving back and forth like a flag, relying on Jorge’s barely inserted dagger.

The fragments of the World Tree exploding from behind stung.

“You son of a bitch!”

Jorge’s dagger was shallow despite his best efforts.

It would have been nice to have a sword that could go a little deeper, but this was Vlad’s best.

Kwaaaaang!

Nidhogg’s head pierced the World Tree’s body.

Although he held on tenaciously, the handle of the dagger, which had become slippery with blood, was not something he could hold on to for long.

Vlad finally fell off Nidhogg’s head due to the continued strong shock.

“······!”

For a moment, Vlad felt the dizzying sensation of falling, and his hands were left floundering.

The inside of the World Tree that I saw with the girl at that time was empty.

The world tree has emptied itself to receive sunlight and moonlight falling down to its roots.

A single starlight was falling towards that sacred root.

The dragon’s howl coming from above was getting further and further away from Vlad’s ears.

※※※※

The air that surrounds my hair is cool.

“······.”

When Vlad opened his eyes with difficulty, what he saw was not Nidhogg’s fiercely raised eyes.

“······here is.”

Bright red maple leaves fluttering.

What greeted Vlad now was the autumn scenery contained within the amber stone.

[Does it hurt a lot?]

Vlad turned his head towards where the voice was coming from.

Someone standing under a large maple tree.

Even though it was only from the back, it seemed like I knew who it was, even though I had never met him before.

A young knight covered in scars.

The voice of the man looking at Vlad was low.

“······I did my best. “It didn’t work out.”

Vlad slowly got up and walked towards him with limping steps.

But no matter how much I walked, I couldn’t get any closer to him.

“Still not working?”

[······.]

As if it was not yet time, the gap between the voice and Vlad could not be narrowed.

I’ve been walking so hard, but I still can’t reach it?

The young knight was saddened by that.

“No matter how hard I try, I can’t do it. “No matter what you do, it won’t work.”

A boy from a back alley becomes a knight and fights a dragon.

Each step was a step of bone-chilling pain and patience, but there was still only a high wall and a huge world in front of Vlad.

The young knight grew tired of the fact that no matter how high he climbed, all he got was a measly handful of success.

[······.]

I bit my lip when I heard Vlad’s crying voice coming from behind me.

How can I comfort the sadness of not being able to have something even though I tried?

[Still, I’m proud of you.]

The world is a place where there are more things we cannot do than things we can do.

Nevertheless, the boy in the back alley did not stop reaching for the star hanging above the blacksmith shop.

The voice could not forget the light that shone in the boy’s eyes at that time.

[I’m proud of you for looking up even though no one noticed.]

The world is bigger and crueler than you.

But we must not forget.

The place you look at will soon become your world.

So lift your head up. It’s a young knight.

“······Was I doing well?”

[then.]

“It’s so hard. “I want to stop now.”

[I have done well enough so far. You just have to keep doing that in the future.]

With each voice of encouragement, the young knight’s head rose.

I’ve already walked it once, so I know how difficult it is for you.

It’s a young knight. You are doing really great.

[You are right, you are right.]

With those words, the voice threw the sword sheath hanging from its waist to Vlad.

A silver sword.

It was the Sword Master’s sword that radiated a noble light.

“This······.”

Vlad raised his head and looked at the voice.

Before you know it, the man is turning towards you.

Although the man’s face was covered in deep shadow, his lips were visible.

he was smiling

[So now it’s your turn.]

Maple leaves are fluttering.

Before I knew it, the bright red leaves that filled my field of vision were spreading their fingers and saying goodbye.

The figure of the smiling man under the tree was getting further and further away.

“······my turn.”

The fall of fantasy has passed with the falling maple leaves.

When Vlad opened his eyes again, what he saw was not the scenery of an autumn day, but today’s moonlight in the sky.

The pure white moon was shining brightly into Vlad’s blue eyes.

※※※※

Ahhh!

Nidhogg finally climbed to the top of the World Tree.

His greedy eyes were looking at the young spirits hanging between the branches.

Nidhogg laughed out loud as if he was having fun looking at the many young spirits who were terrified.

Left eye exploded.

A half-cut tail.

Even though it came up looking shabby, it doesn’t matter.

Now, I will take the potential of those children and become a more perfect version of myself!

“It doesn’t work that way.”

At that moment, a stern voice flew from somewhere.

There was a being who hurled cold ridicule at those who dared to become perfect.

Grrrr-

The blue-eyed knight.

Its raised eyes resemble a ferocious dragon, but what it holds is a knight’s sword.

His name symbolizes two worlds that cannot coexist.

Vlad of Shoara.

Ahhh!

Nidhogg burst into wild anger as he saw Vlad standing in front of him.

Even if you take it off, it sticks.

The young blue-eyed dragon was a terribly tough bastard.

“Get down from here. “You son of a bitch.”

The only people standing at the highest point of Aushurin are Vlad and Nidhogg.

Now there is no one to protect the spirits behind him.

Now it’s my turn to do it.

‘······A little deeper.’

Vlad slowly took a deep breath and opened his left eye.

A deeper world.

Because he knew that it was not in his eyes but in his heart.

Now it’s my turn.

Now it’s my turn to protect it.

A light originating from the heart began to shine along with the silver sword.

“Hwaaaah!”

Ahhh!

A starlight, leaving behind the young spirits, began to extend towards the dragon.

Faster and more intense than anyone else.

With only your own will.

“······!”

Avoid the sharp horns by taking the nimble steps that the one-eyed knight taught you.

I blocked the rapidly flying thorns with my armor spell along with the white snake’s protection.

“Ugh!”

Although I was slightly pushed, I was able to hold on with my ankles strengthened with rigid body techniques.

Find the most optimal path that someone showed you today.

Someone else’s world, built on top of the Sword Master’s swordsmanship, was paving the way for Vlad.

“Kaaaa!”

Nidhogg’s eyes widened as he saw the young dragon attacking him.

In order to become perfect, you have to step on someone else’s potential.

However, the young blue-eyed dragon was jumping over the wall with only his own potential.

A look that would make anyone proud.

Ahhh!

Vicious thorns were breaking between the torn skin.

The poor possibility of not being able to fly alone was breaking apart with the starlight.

The voice of the dragon who dreamed of perfection was fading away with a scream.

“Now it’s my turn!”

Today, a new star was shining at the highest point of Aussurin.

So that everyone can look, so that everyone can look up.

That light was the starlight that the boy had always held in his heart.
