Geomje reincarnated as a swordsmith (170)
Island of the Blue Dragon
The sword that cut through the sea surface soon became invisible.
In its original state, its speed and sharpness were amazing, but it was not a level of Mysticism so high that it could cut off the power of a god.
The limit would have been to neutralize it for only a few seconds.
however.
Sigh.
The hull, which had tilted almost 90 degrees, settled back on the sea surface, causing a large amount of water to splash due to its weight and impact.
‘Did you succeed on your first try? ‘It’s not that I’m good at it, but the sword is great.’
Leonard’s single sword erased the hope of sinking the ship.
It was not physically possible.
It meant that there was interference in the realm of concepts. It was not just the wind, but a flow created by the power of God.
“Leonard! This?!”
When Isaac, who came to his side a month later, asked, Leonard confessed his thoughts without hiding anything.
“I think it is the power of [Aeolus]. “I guess I’ll keep trying until I get to that island.”
“We have to go at least 30 more minutes to reach Aiolia… .”
At those words, Isaac’s face hardened like a plaster statue.
‘Is he an outsider? It makes you realize why the besieging side is at a disadvantage.’
Just because only the strongest players of the Transcendental World were gathered together, it did not mean that they were not affected by geographical features. Even at levels such as Ilwido River (一葦渡江) and Equipyeongdosu (登萍渡水), it is difficult to perform light techniques on the water to the extent that one has to step on reeds or duckweed.
This was even more so if it was assumed that [Aiolos]’s ultra-long-distance attacks would continue to fly. Even if you only focus on walking on the water, it is difficult to attack by force, so how could it be easy to advance tens of kilometers while avoiding enemy attacks?
“I don’t know how you did it, but can you keep blocking it like you are now?”
“It is difficult. “If you miss even once, the ship will be damaged, and if you move the sea without targeting this ship directly, you won’t be able to completely neutralize it with just one sword.”
“I never thought [Aeolus]’s range of perception would be this wide. “It is unfortunate that we were unable to mobilize military ships because the distance to other countries was too close.”
No matter how strong the power and status of the Arcadian Empire are, bringing military ships around the border could lead to a diplomatic problem.
In the end, unless a war is started, other countries will have no choice but to make concessions, but humans are creatures of emotion rather than reason. If you let your pride go too far, you may attack even if you are sure you will be defeated, and it will be a huge burden for the empire that is struggling to maintain the front line with other races.
However, warning about the existence and danger of Heo Shin would have brought about a more serious problem.
Whioooooooo.
As Leonard expected, [Aiolos] did not retreat after only one failure.
‘There is no need to even write ‘Island of the Blue Dragon’. This divine sword has considerable power and can be cut off with just one blade.’
Finding the central point of the flow is more important than power.
The dragonan, which had entered a full-fledged situation, shimmered with golden light.
just as expected.
The wind blowing from above and below the sea level creates waves that appear to be more than ten meters high, and this time, they rush in with such force that they threaten to engulf the entire ship. The sky, which was still clear, was a storm of an unusual level.
Oh Sang-ryu
Leonard sank his legs with the feeling of assimilating them with his stomach, and, having achieved union with his body and sword, stretched out his sword.
White tiger and five forms (改)
Heavenly Wave Movement
〈Tianjiangpa Dongjin〉, who was more skilled than before, now sent a shock wave through the wind without the need to clash his swords.
Fuuuuuuuuuuuuck?!
When the shock wave emitted from Leonard’s blade hits the wave, it seeps into the inside rather than the surface, exploding from within.
A wave the size of a house shattered as if an explosive had exploded.
Leonard saw that and clicked his tongue in dissatisfaction.
“… Tsk.”
Even though it smashed waves exceeding ten meters, the ship was swept away by the aftermath. Even the sword strike that cut through Heoshin’s authority did not neutralize the laws of physics themselves.
Even if you erase the influence of [Aiolos], some inertia remains.
If it had been a ship that was not affected by waves like Aquamarine or Moby Dick, it might not have been able to withstand it as a normal sailing ship.
Leonard narrowed his eyes after analyzing the opponent’s moves.
‘The intention is blatantly visible. It was an exercise of power not to kill us, but to destroy the ship and push it out. If you can’t land, subjugation itself is impossible, so it’s a cumbersome trick in many ways.’
I heard that there is not even a dock where ships can dock or land in
The subjugation mission begins with crossing the outskirts surrounded by bronze walls as if sieging. Attacks as far out at sea as today were rare, but not unprecedented.
Isaac seemed to have reached a similar conclusion, and turned around with a long sigh.
“I guess I’ll have to ask the wizard. “If it’s not direct but only an indirect effect, we can do something.”
Leonard asked, opening his mouth to a sudden question.
“But why is Kalanta in the cabin?”
“They said I was very seasick.”
“Whew, I see.”
It seemed like I knew why he sighed.
Since I had put them through quite a bit of trouble at the Black Dragon Knights’ base number 7, I was planning on leaving them alone if I could rest.
If the current situation continued, the ship would sink or be washed up on the shore, so there was nothing we could do.
“Hmm.”
Leonard, who sensed the third wave sent by [Aiolos], let out a sigh without even realizing it.
It had to be that way.
As if they had realized that generating waves and wind from the front would not work, a water column rising from the depths of the sea was targeting the lower part of the ship’s hull. In order for Leonard to cut it down, he had to go into the sea and swing a sword or cut it in half along with the ship.
‘The adaptation speed is fast. It’s hard to believe that it’s reacting from tens of kilometers away.’
According to the literature of the White Dragon Knights, it was a characteristic shared by deities whose symbol was wind. Simply looking at speed, light and lightning may be faster than wind, but they are only a single shot.
‘Wind’ was not a power specializing in destructive power, but a power that was useful in many ways.
However, Leonard was not without means of counteracting that power.
???Kwaung.

A delicate yet exquisite central strike pressed down on the stomach.
In martial arts, it was a technique commonly called Cheongeunchu (千斤錘).
It not only increases the weight by simply concentrating energy, but also counters the force that would break the lower part of the ship. Thanks to the use of water as a medium, there were no large shock waves.
A dynamic effect that would have split the ship left and right even if there had been a discrepancy of just one inch, or even half an inch.
“… “It’s dangerous.”
Despite his perfect response, Leonard’s eyes did not miss the cracks that had formed throughout the ship’s hull.
This is because a considerable burden was placed in the process of offsetting the central ball he used and the power of God. The problem was that he tried to overturn several times and then regained his balance. Even if we exchange attack and defense three or four more times, the ship will not be able to hold on and will be damaged.
Fortunately, it was soon after that that Kalanta came on deck.
“Hey, how did this happen?”
Sleep fled from his dazed face and he looked around.
Ugh! Ugh!
Even if there are many untrustworthy corners, an archmage is an archmage. Without even having to memorize a spell, I activated several types of auxiliary magic with just a wave of my hand to strengthen the entire ship.
Leonard was also able to handle magic itself with the control of Dragonheart, but he was unable to use magic he had never learned or seen.
‘indeed. Is that how you do it when you use auxiliary magic multiple times?’
It could have been done through ignorant force, but whether it is magic or martial arts, perfection is created from the precise steps involved.
The dragon’s eye, shining with an inquisitive mind, analyzed the magic used by Kalanta and swallowed it as its own. As long as it wasn’t at the level of great magic, it was possible to fully learn it with just a few viewings.
When Kalanta, which was on the deck, began to operate in earnest, even the slightest wind or waves could not shake the ship. It became possible to respond more stably than when he cut it. At this rate, reaching the new station seemed to be smooth.
however.
Kyaaaaaaaaa!
Suddenly, a sharp scream was heard from the sky.
Noise that causes discomfort and disgust.
The epicenter of the strange sound was the head of a woman hanging on the body of a strange bird.
“It’s Harpia (?ρπυια)! “All personnel, ready for battle!”
As soon as he discovered them, Isaac recognized their identity and shouted.
Leonard also remembered seeing those monsters in literature.
It is an ancient species of Harpy, famous as a low-level monster, but it was a monster that should not be based on the Harpy. In ancient times, he was a being who even had the blood of a god flowing into him and was able to use powers.
It was a service race that greatly exceeded the centaurs seen in [Castor]’s subjugation mission.
‘It doesn’t seem like he has any intention of coming down to the sword’s range.’
The flight speed also appears to be fast, and it is difficult to kill harpyas that do not even come down from hundreds of meters in the air.
On the contrary, Harpia had a useful means of attack.
Kiiiiing?!
Perhaps as a test, it was aimed at Leonard, but the blade of wind created by Harpia’s wings struck in a straight line.
Sharp and fast.
An intangible slash that exceeds the speed of sound.
Perhaps because it came from authority, it was shattered as soon as it touched Leonard’s sword, but the power itself was considerable. It was equal to or better than the sword wind launched by the powerhouse of Transcendence.
‘It’s not at a level that can be used as a punitive force, but it’s great for destroying ships.’
It is difficult to handle the defense power of a ship that relies on a single Kalanta. Because it is basically a power based on the power of God, it corresponds to the pinnacle of magic.
Even the shield created by a 7th rank archmage will not be able to last long if you keep getting hit by those slashes.
Even if Leonard and the 3rd Division block it, the cost will be significant.
If [Aeolus] summoned wind or waves again, he was bound to suffer at least once.
‘It’s a bad move to delay the war as he wants.’
As the fierce wind poured down from above, they saw the attacks they were unable to handle hit the shield.
Rather than destroying it with destructive power, it is making the magical structure itself vulnerable. Even if Kalanta restored it as quickly as possible, if the magic frame was damaged, he would have to cast it again from the beginning. In the meantime, continued attacks would destroy the ship.
There is no time to spare.
Leonard, holding a sword in a situation of dilemma, simply thought about finding a breakthrough.
‘… ‘I have no choice but to try it.’
And I came up with a gamble.
After hearing the short and simple summary of the story, Kalanta’s reaction was half doubt and half anxiety.
“Uh, so, in theory it seems like it could work, that is.”
To a wizard, ‘theoretically possible’ was not much different from ‘impossible’, but to a martial artist, it was at the level of ‘doable’.
Leonard, satisfied with his answer, launched himself into the bow.
That location was the most suitable.
“Okay, I was going to say no.”
Kalanta, who had been dumbfounded, soon came to his senses, moved to the stern and looked at the rear of the ship.
As the Harpia’s sharp winds poured in endlessly, the defense shield was soon covered with spiderweb-like cracks. I felt lucky if I could last another 5 minutes.
Calanta, unable to think of a second best solution, had no choice but to accept Leonard’s non-proposal.
“Just remember that it’s not my fault if you fail!”
Kalanta, blaming the bad luck of being constantly mobilized to the scene despite not being a combat wizard, put both palms forward and activated a spell.
Leonard’s request was very simple.
Creating propulsion that can accelerate a large sailing ship.
“[Repulse Force]!”
It was that moment.
Kugwagwagwagwagwa??!!
A shock wave that maximized the repulsion force, the highest magic of the 6th rank, was shot backwards and the repulsive force was applied to the hull.
It is an acceleration method that is not only simple but also ignorant.
The force was enough to break the keel in a matter of seconds, bend the metal structure, and tear the ship apart. It was such an incredible magic that the ship bounced off the sea level and hit air resistance.
Even the knights of the 3rd division had the limit of what they could do without falling, but Leonard held his sword upright without moving a single inch.
‘now.’
I have been waiting for this moment from the beginning.
Unlike the power of [Aiolos], air resistance is a product of natural physical force, so it must be cut without relying on the divine sword.
All that was required of him was confidence.
Ilwon Five Elements Geomgyeol (一元5行劍訣)
Oh Sang-ryu
Decisive battle
Confidence that anything can be broken apart.
The true will to fight, which I once again realized while studying
Dan of White Tiger
The moment Leonard’s sword, standing on the bow, struck down, a slash that started from its trajectory exploded, splitting a space spanning several kilometers and moving forward.
Even if you cut the air with a knife, air resistance does not disappear.
As if to deny that common sense, the boat carrying the punitive force crossed the path Leonard had laid out at an incredible speed. It was not about wind or air, but the concept of ‘resistance’. The resilience of the laws of the world restored the air resistance in just a few seconds, but in that moment, the ship that broke through the harpia’s siege was able to relax.
“Kalanta!”
The sharp wind that suddenly caused them to lose their prey stopped for a moment.
That was the same as saying that Kalanta had put down his defensive magic and had more time to activate his offensive magic.
“[Fire of Gehenna, bottomless boiling clay.]”
It was a spell I heard somewhere once.
“[Burn it. Erase it. Eat it up. Open your mouth and spit out the fire of purgatory out of the jaws of sin.]”
The time when he faced Mind Kraken came to Leonard’s mind.
The 7th level fire magic used by Jack Russell.
Blood-red flames soon poured down like a shower from the magic circle created within close range of the Harpyas. It has the lethal power to reduce the target to ashes with just one spark. Compared to its attack power and mobility, it was fatal to Harpia, which lacked durability and vitality.
Kkkkkkk!
Kkkkkkk!
Kueeeeeeek!
Dozens of harpys burning in the fire of purgatory fell, letting out a scream that sounded like an agonizing cry.
Even before the sea water cooled me down, I was already out of breath.
‘How many of them survived? ‘It’s like a race from the old days.’
It was as if I had escaped through pouring raindrops.
The Harpians, who had been reduced to a number that could be counted on one hand, seemed to have lost the will to fight any longer, and were moving away toward the horizon.
It was the moment when the gatekeeper on the road to
“Sea warfare wasn’t enough, and air warfare wasn’t enough. If it weren’t for you, I would have had to go back to the coast and send a request for support.”
As a result, Isaac and the members of the 3rd Division turned their eyes to him with embarrassed faces. With their martial arts or unique abilities, they were unable to intercept Harpia, which was flying at high speed in the distant sky.
I tried throwing a harpoon or javelin, but even if I learned professional throwing techniques, it is difficult to hit a flying object moving at that speed.
Leonard, who did not know this, comforted them.
“The subjugation of [Aiolos] has not even begun yet. “If you want to measure your contribution, you have to talk about it later.”
“Thank you for saying that. “I won’t disappoint in ‘New Station’.”
The eyes of the White Dragon Knights, who were too young to pass everything on to their younger juniors, were on fire.
[Aiolos], who wanted to repel the enemy efficiently, unintentionally only raised their morale. A large number of Harpia, which cannot be said to be numerous, were lost.
“You can see it slowly.”
〈New Station〉, Aiolia has already gotten closer.
Leonard turned around at Isaac’s words and focused his eyes, and the castle walls flickering over the horizon began to appear.
A metallic castle wall that shines the same color as jade.
It must have been
