Sword Emperor Reincarnated as a Sword Master Chapter 86

Geomje reincarnated as a swordsmith (86)

The first thing Leonard touched on in the three’s fighting style was Galano’s position, the only vanguard.

As befits his nickname ‘whale catcher’, his weapon is a large and heavy harpoon.

The attack power of each blow is excellent, but when used in a method other than , the attack frequency drops significantly. Although the javelin was a unique attack method of the harpoon, it was also problematic to remain unarmed until it was retrieved.

The method of using a rope was quite novel, but other than its unexpectedness, it didn’t seem very useful. It was a useful technique only when aiming for the back of the head of an enemy who thought he had dodged a javelin.

“Galano, you must first let go of the harpoon spear as little as possible. Throwing javelins is absolutely prohibited. “I will only allow it in situations where I really have to use it.”

It couldn’t have been a good feeling to be criticized for the martial arts he had been training for decades, but Galano listened calmly to his words.

He was a person who shattered eight years of stagnation with just three stabs and three sentences. There was no reason to refuse due to his humble pride.

“Your spear skill, Maelstrom, is excellent. “If you have time for javelin throwing or rope play, invest it all in Maelstrom.”

If you have mastered the inside and outside of the warrior’s face, it becomes a means of attack that can penetrate both close and long distances.

If you compress the force with internal rotation, you can pierce enemies at a distance, and if you release the force through external rotation, you can blow away enemies at close range. If you reach a level where you can perform internal and external rotation simultaneously, you will be able to attempt to send away the vortex created around the window or compress it into a window.

Galano, convinced by the explanation, fell into a deep sleep.

I thought the harpoon javelin I created myself was useful in its own way, but it turned out to be a long way back.

“And you greatly misunderstand the role of spearmen. Why are you rushing towards the enemy when you are not riding a horse or using a small and light javelin? A spearman can take down a hundred people by himself on a narrow street. Draw the enemy into the gap, and don’t let anyone live behind your back.”

His role was to be the gateway that protects the two people, like a gatekeeper.

“Ninian, you must learn to see the entire battlefield, not just each enemy. You should be able to accurately shoot leaves while looking at the forest, not the trees. Enemies aiming for Galano’s blind spot, enemies trying to bypass to the side, enemies trying to snipe Esther from afar. “It is your job to detect and deal with it in advance.”

The household martial arts and Yeon clan archery that he taught to Ninian were never intended to make archers the protagonists.

The essence of a bowman has been a hunter since ancient times, and he does not work at the forefront like a knight or general. A single arrow flying in without even a rat or a bird noticing could kill even the most victorious king.

It pierces the skin exposed through the gaps in the armor and overturns the horse of a brave knight.

Penetrating weaknesses and neutralizing strengths.

That was the archer’s job on the battlefield.

“If you want to cover the vanguard, you must know his movements well.”

It was not easy to provide cover in the fight of warriors like Leonard, Marian, and Galano who could move faster than an arrow.

If you make a mistake, you will end up piercing your ally’s back or head.

“If you can’t tell where or how your companion will be moving one second later, turn your bow. “An arrow that you are unsure of is more dangerous to your allies than to your enemies.”

It teaches us that observing the enemy is important, but observing our allies is also very important.

Ninian had been acting alone for too long, so there was a tendency for the beats to not match well. That too was a problem that could be solved naturally by observing his colleague’s movements.

Lastly, Esther’s case was very simple.

“It is good to repeat efficient attacks with low-level magic, but saving magic power alone is not enough. “We must also be wary of accumulating mental fatigue.”

“Are you saying we should finish it quickly with wide-area magic or high-level magic?”

“yes. If you use more than 30 rounds of [Lightning Bolt], won’t the consumption value be similar to that of [Chain Lightning]? On the other hand, the consumption of mental power will be greater as electrons require separate orbital calculations for each shot.”

“But even if that’s the case with Ninian, isn’t it possible for Galano to get involved as well? We still don’t know each other’s movements well… .”

Leonard said.

“It doesn’t matter. “Unlike Ninian’s arrows, Esther’s magic allows for proactive measures.”

“huh? how?”

“Follow the instructions and you will find out.”

Esther was confused when she was told to try it herself and find out, rather than giving specific solutions like Galano and Ninian.

But the doubt did not last long.

After finishing the story, Leonard and his party started to move forward again, and they continued to encounter Sea Oak patrol forces at intervals of 5 minutes at the shortest or 15 minutes at the most.

Leonard, who presented three people and retreated, gave instructions for specific tactical actions using radio waves.

―Galano, establish a boundary that you must absolutely protect. Rather than slaying the enemy, you must focus on protecting the line.

Following his orders, Galano stepped forward and swung his harpoon, carving a long, large scratch into the ground in front of him.

Hehe!

Keuchwiik!

Cookie! Kuik!

Regardless, the Sea Orcs lashed out their hooked spears at him with all their might. Their physical strength is several times stronger than that of a well-trained human, and their claw-shaped feet can grip the ground even more strongly.

Four hooked spears shoot out with an eerie sound.

“Whew—…” .”

Taking a deep breath and letting it out, Galano violently rotated his body starting from his ankles.

Ankle to knee, knee to waist, waist to shoulder.

The force that moves up the body in a spiral quickly accelerates from the shoulder, passes through the elbow and wrist, and reaches the fingers.

The true beauty of the «Maelstrom» spear technique that the brothers inherited came from this rotational power. The power is amplified in an instant, like a butterfly flapping its wings and spreading into a typhoon.

and.

Kugwagwagwagwa—!

With Galano’s thrust, the vortex that had been swirling around the spear swung forward.

The four hooked spears bend and bend, losing their aim, and the Sea Orcs who were enjoying themselves beyond the spears are terrified.

Normally, I would have moved forward at this timing and smashed the head or heart of the guy who was retreating.

―Ninian, shoot.

Instead of Galano not moving from his spot, four arrows fired from behind silence the target.

To be exact, the arrow was fired half a beat before he sent out the stab. From the Sea Orcs’ point of view, as soon as they lost their weapons, there was a hole between their eyes.

However, the number of enemies still exceeded thirty.

Even though it lost four of its kind in a single exchange of attack and defense, it attacked without flinching at all.

―Esther, preparing for [Chain Lightning]. As powerfully as possible.

If things continued like this, Galano had no choice but to get caught up in the situation.

Although Esther was embarrassed by the instructions, she did as she was told.

Pajik! Squeeze!

The magic formula floating around her body emits bright blue lightning, waiting for the moment when the reins are released. A 5th rank lightning magic that even martial arts warriors cannot avoid being seriously injured if hit properly.

Meanwhile, Galano was being attacked by thirty sea orcs. Ninian’s arrows continued to check those coming from the flanks or rear, but some of those who had escaped the Maelstrom’s vortex were trying to cross the border.

-Galano.

Then, Leonard said.

– Raise your self-defense gear to its maximum and spread the power amplified by as if wrapping it around your entire body.

It was a difficult order, but Galano was able to do it.

Coo coo coo coo… !

Jeon Sa-kyung is a career that is in itself an entire field of attack and defense.

An object rotating at an incredible speed performs both attack and defense on its own. Instead of shooting it out with his spear, Galano temporarily gained a shield that protected his body like a storm. It was a skill that even his older brother, Dentuso, had not shown.

At the same time, Leonard shouted to Esther.

-now!

As soon as the command was issued, [Chain Lightning], a 5th level magic that was gathering power in the air, swept into the area including Galano.

A chain of lightning that looks like a chain or net.

It doesn’t just end with being electrocuted once; it burns completely as it hits another person and is struck again by the lightning that bounces off it. It was a wide-area magic that was more lethal when there were two enemies rather than one, or three enemies rather than two.

Kcheeeeeek!

Quieeeeee!

Crueeeeek!

In the midst of the people grilling as black as charcoal, Galano realized that his body wasn’t even scorched.

The self-defense machine swirling like a whirlpool bounced off the lightning that hit its surface, unable to even burn Galano’s collar and only causing other Sea Orcs to scream.

[Lightning Spear], which was concentrated at one point, might have been different, but [Chain Lightning], which was divided into several branches, could not pierce the vortex.

“… … .”

“… … .”

“… … .”

When Esther’s magic faded, there were about 40 charred bodies of Sea Oaks rolling around there.

Those that were still alive were struggling on the ground, but it wasn’t difficult to suffocate them.

The group battle was over in less than three minutes.

Leonard spoke to the members who had even forgotten about retrieving the Spirit Stone and were looking at the results blankly.

“Do you understand? “How ineffective were we fighting?”

The three people nodded their heads without realizing it.

It had to be that way.

Galano was not only sweating, but had already regained his breathing that had been rough for a while, and Ninian achieved more results while greatly conserving his arrows and strength. He had nothing to say when it came to Esther.

“Galano, continue to use the techniques I taught you and increase your proficiency. “If it grows from being worn around the entire body to being able to wrap around weapons or hands and feet, it will also be possible to block intangible attacks.”

“… “I never thought it could be written in this way.”

“Don’t set limits for yourself. “Unmanned growth stops from that moment.”

Next was Ninian.

“When shooting an arrow, do not pursue a single strike. If you kill it, another one will fill the empty space, but if you injure it, it will be left in a state where it cannot use its power. “If there is no one capable of immediately treating the seriously injured, the injured person is in the heaviest shackles.”

Even from the perspective of Galano, who faces the enemy on the front line, even if Ninian kills one animal, the next enemy will attack quickly.

However, if the enemy remains incapable of combat, you will have some breathing room while surrounded. This was because an attack from that direction did not pose a threat and acted as a dissonance in a coordinated attack that required good coordination.

“Esther consults with members in advance and researches useful magic, like the [Chain Lightning] she wrote this time. After casting [Heat Shield], attack with [Firewave], strengthen Galano’s Spear with wind magic, or enchant Ninian’s arrows with attributes.”

“… “There’s a lot more to do, huh?”

“There will be a lot of work to do as a team in the future, so we should not invest time only in individual training. “It’s good to create signals or combinations of techniques that allow us to know and respond to each other without my instructions.”

In this fight, Leonard gave instructions in full voice at the right time, so no one made a mistake and the fight went well.

But since he couldn’t just keep an eye on the three of them all the time, they had to learn how to cooperate on their own. He also needed to be taught how to deal with a small number of powerful people, rather than a large number of people.

‘Still, it’s quite nice to be able to constantly encounter this level of enemies. Are there often cases where are preserved for training purposes rather than making money?’

It is said that it cannot be left unattended due to the threat of Demon Gyeonghwa, but if the monsters within it are subdued regularly, the risk is greatly reduced.

The logic behind the Atlantis Maritime Union’s claim to preserve the ‘rift’ in Sea Area 5 was similar.

But Leonard didn’t think it would end well.

‘No matter how well you clean and take care of the wound, if it doesn’t heal, you will eventually have to cut it.’

According to the wizards’ explanation, the was a gap where the dimensional barrier, which could be said to be the fence of this world, collapsed.

Regardless of whether or not it was polluted by the laws of the other world leaking out from beyond, just being open was a factor that made the world unstable.

The claims of the crack preservationists, led by Rep. Pablo, would ultimately endanger the entire world.

‘I guess I should quickly close the and think more about it.’

We also had to investigate the mysterious hostility of the Five Elements True Dragon Phantom that was fiercely acting within Leonard.

Move your steps in the direction indicated by that grip.

The four members of the Aquamarine Adventure Group began to head towards the heart of ‘Sea Oak’s Lair’ again.

* * *

Adventurers operating in Sea Area 5 must carry a watch with clear accuracy. Otherwise, if something unexpected happened inside , no help or response from outside could be expected.

So Leonard and his party were also measuring the time after entering the ‘Sea Oak Lair’.

It was exactly 3 hours and 17 minutes later.

“–stop.”

Leonard and his party arrived in front of a mysterious cave where the medium of ‘The Oak Lair’ was presumed to be hidden.
