Episode 395: The presence of only one person (5)
Everyone held their breath.
No, I had no choice but to hold my breath.
Due to the destructive energy swirling around Castro, people could not even breathe properly.
It was then.
Pot.
Crumbling.
Castro kicked the ground.
The great battle began from the moment they faced each other, and the destructive energy centered around Castro erupted into a huge aura.
It was a type of power that people had never witnessed before.
The aura that erupted as if piercing the sky, over a dozen meters high, tore Roman Dmitry’s body apart at once.
Quang!
Quad duddddud.
It was tremendous power.
The ground rose up and was swept by a vortex of aura, and as Roman Dmitry dodged the attack, a crack appeared in the castle wall beyond.
It was a shocking sight.
Although magic defenses were installed in layers to prepare for Kronos’ attacks, the magic defenses appeared to be broken by just the waves of the aura.
and.
Quang!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
Castro pushed Roman Dmitri.
As if a sword of judgment was falling from the sky, huge auras exploded on Roman Dmitry’s head one after another.
The wind blew.
A storm of aura arose so hard that it was hard to see with the naked eye, and the sight of Roman Dmitri blocking such a brutal attack was enough to make one wonder.
An unknown world that people only imagined. The 7-star aura was on a different level.
While the new aura system that Roman Dmitry talks about pursues efficient eruption, Castro’s indiscriminate eruption reached its peak, showing destructive power beyond human limits.
“He’s not as mean as his reputation suggests.”
Pot.
Castro dug into the space.
He identified Roman Dmitry’s location with his menacing eyes and attacked the vital point with a quick and concise attack.
Papapot.
Crumbling.
It was strong.
Instead of spewing out powerful power every time, Castro adjusted the power of his aura according to the situation and pushed his opponent like crazy.
Roman Dmitry’s cold eyes followed Castro.
Roman Dmitry also fiercely counterattacked the attack, which immediately struck the vital point as soon as there was even a slight gap.
Kwaang-
Block the attack.
cut down the opponent
As the flashing light decapitated Castro, Castro also attempted to attack back by aggressively attacking the enemy.
It was an unfamiliar sight.
Recently, there has not been a single person who has properly exchanged offense and defense against Roman Dmitry, but Castro proved his presence with just a short clash.
People were quick to judge Castro.
Just because he spent a long time at the imperial court, his skills did not deteriorate.
rather.
It has developed.
He rose to a level so high that others could not even imagine, and declared himself the absolute ruler of Kronos.
however.
“It’s the same.”
Moment.
Castro’s expression distorted under the helmet.
It’s the same.
What on earth does it mean to say something like that now that we are having such a heated battle?
Does this mean that his swordsmanship and his aura are at a level that can be described as ‘not the same’ by Roman Dmitry’s standards?
Whatever it was, it was a word that Castro could not tolerate.
In order to prove himself as a swordsman, he pushed ahead with the method of fighting at Daejeon Temple, even though he knew it was ineffective.
blast furnace.
“Let’s see how he can resist this attack and still say something like that.”
Kwarung.
Crumbling.
The aura rose in a catastrophic way.
An aura emitting black light swirled around him and formed on the tip of the sword, as if symbolizing a huge sun.
It was the best secret technique he could use.
Guys like Cesar didn’t even need to use the secret weapon, and they decided that if a monster like Roman Dmitri appeared in the future, they would use it.
In an imaginary world.
No one could stop Castro’s attacks.
Seeing Roman Dmitri trying to counterattack by retrieving his sword, Castro struck down his aura.
“porridge… … Breathe?!”

That moment.
Flash.
he saw
The aura that comes down according to Castro’s will is split apart by something that flashes in an instant.
It was a sight that cannot be described in words.
The aura in the shape of the sun was an attack with all his might, but it was torn apart horribly, causing a sudden burning pain all over his face.
“Kaaak!”
Blood splattered.
I fell to my knees without realizing it.
Looking down at the ground, the blood dripping from his face and the shattered pieces of his helmet caught my eye.
It was a complete defeat.
The moment I accepted that fact, I heard Roman Dmitry’s cold voice above my head.
“In all my years in this world, I have never once met an opponent who can match my full power. and… … .”
I raised my head.
The shining sunlight shone on Roman Dmitry.
“You too.”
* * *
suddenly.
Castro recalled memories of the past.
Alexandre, who gave him power, looked down at Castro and Ares and said:
“I have really high expectations for you two. Castro has my way, Ares has a new way. Prove for yourself which is really right. If there is someone who brings results that satisfy me, I promise that in the new world, I will recognize him as the best swordsman and grant him all the wealth and glory. “It is as important to me as ruling the Salamander Continent.”
Alexander’s longing was real.
he is.
I couldn’t shake off my past life.
They wanted to recreate martial arts, and although the times were different, Castro and Ares chose different methods.
In the beginning, Castro’s growth was overwhelming.
Of course, Castro lived much longer than Ares, so he could be called the best on the continent based on Alexander’s teachings at an early age.
But as Ares grew up, things changed.
Ares was clearly just a novice with no need to be wary, but as he absorbed new methods, he grew rapidly enough to threaten Castro.
Then one day.
Immediately after ending the war with Dmitry, Alexander said to Castro with a shocked expression:
“Castro. Your way, or mine, will never be able to defeat Roman Dmitry. The sword technique used by Roman Dmitry is my ideal. So, you don’t have to try any harder. From now on, I will bet everything on Ares’ methods and send him as a spy to steal Roman Dmitri’s martial arts. “Unfortunately, my way of changing the world was not the right answer.”
It was shocking.
Castro worked hard and reached the level of 7 stars.
Although he was at a level where he could defeat someone like Ares with a single sword, he could not accept the statement that branded him as having no hope in the future.
From then on, I focused on training even more stubbornly.
Just to prove that Alexander was wrong, he refined his methods like crazy.
and.
“Keueook.”
defeated.
With blood flowing thickly from inside, Castro looked at Roman Dmitri with a face of despair.
“… … Alexandre was right. I can’t defeat you my way. “I devoted my whole life to completing the blow that you so casually cut down, but it was just the wrong approach from the start.”
My voice was boiling.
Sadness, resentment, anger, etc.
Many emotions were mixed.
Castro opened his eyes wide and shouted in a voice full of evil.
“I admit it. You are the best sword on the continent. but… … .”
Pusssss.
Gurgling.
Magic power arose.
A dark energy bloomed around Castro, and his entire eyes turned black.
That moment.
Pot.
The world was bathed in darkness.
“That doesn’t mean you’ll get out of this alive.”
* * *
The Battle of Daejeonsa had two purposes from the beginning.
The first one is pure confrontation.
Second, if we lost in terms of skill, we planned to isolate Roman Dmitry and deal with it somehow.
Pot.
Rumbling.
The world has changed.
The magic of darkness exploded, coloring the surrounding area in darkness, and completely dividing the space so that Umberto’s soldiers watching from the castle walls could not intervene.
At the same time, Castro embraced dark magic.
The dark magic was seething like crazy throughout my body, and the energy of the previous heaven was also released from its restrictions.
That wasn’t all.
Before Roman Dmitri could react, shadows appeared around him and extended a hand of darkness.
Papa papa pot.
“Bind yourself.”
Hundreds of hands took control everywhere.
When the shadow magic tried to grab Roman Dmitry’s entire body, Roman Dmitry succinctly dodged and cut them down one after another.
It was a familiar power.
It was a pattern I had experienced once in the territory of Valhalla, but the number and power of the shadows were stronger than before.
It was then.
“You will definitely die here.”
Quang!
Crumbling.
There was a huge shock.
With his black eyes, Castro instantly penetrated the space and attacked with an aura that shimmered in darkness.
It was a destructive power that surpassed the 7-star aura.
Although it was not as intense as before, the concentrated power burned brightly with black flames and continued to drive Roman Dmitri.
Quang!
Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!
Castro.
He gave up his soul.
Innate energy came at the cost of life, and dark magic was a way to give up one’s dignity as a human being.
but.
There were no regrets.
The moment he accepted the fact that he could never defeat Roman Dmitri, he no longer had any reason to continue his life as a man named Castro.
The devil’s temptation suggested by Alexander.
Castro, who accepted powerful power, showed tremendous destructive power in a completely different way than before.
Quang!
Crumbling.
The world was shaken.
After Castro attacked several times, the shadows also took advantage of the timing and unleashed their magic power.
sudden.
Papa papa pot.
The dark magic was swung like a whip.
Some wrapped around Roman Dmitry’s body in the form of touches, while others struck straight down, inflicting direct blows.
It was all capped by a quick reaction.
However, whenever an opportunity appeared, the shadows raised shadows to attack, and some of the shadows aimed for dead angles and were blown away by the storm of aura.
Crispy.
My body was torn apart.
That alone was enough.
While Roman Dmitry was looking at the shadow, Castro came right in front of him and showed a fierce look in his eyes.
Quang!
Crumbling.
It was a powerful blow.
It was, without a doubt, the most threatening level of my life, and the attacks of the shadows interlocking like gears did not allow any leeway.
Kronos’ trap was powerful.
In order to catch the big fish called Roman Dmitri, they gave up their pride in the empire and even sacrificed the soul of Castro, the greatest sword of Kronos.
If only I could kill him.
It was meaningful enough.
The moment Castro, whose attack was blocked, was about to strike again, Roman Dmitry’s eyes changed.
‘The second half of the Heavenly Demon Sword Technique, one second type.’
Flash.
It felt different.
Magic power swirled.
The attack that had cut off Castro’s secret energy at once split the space to throw Castro into despair again.
however.
Quang!
Kakakakakakakakang!
Castro’s face lit up with joy.
An attack that he had not been able to properly check just a moment ago was blocked by a narrow margin, and even the aftereffects of the aura were completely absorbed.
This is why Castro sold his soul.
He wanted a force strong enough to take on Roman Dmitry.
Although there is not a single person in this life who has been able to withstand Roman Dmitry’s second half attack, Castro did not stop by blocking the attack, but instead rushed forward.
Rumbling.
Magical power swirled around him.
The face filled with madness revealed considerable joy.
“Hahahahaha. Did you see it? Your power is no longer invincible.”
Current life.
It was a first time.
Even in the martial arts world, it was not common for someone to receive herbivory in the latter half of the game, but Castro proved the power of darkness.
but.
That was it.
Roman Dmitry looked directly at Castro with a calm expression.
“so?”
People are often mistaken.
The Sword of the Heavenly Demon.
If he prevented it, he was happy as if he had won.
They had only blocked one attack, but they had no idea what would happen next.
What is swordsmanship?
A fight that risks your life.
Just because you block one attack doesn’t mean it’s over. Only by blocking an attack can you meet the basic conditions to face your opponent.
What does that mean?
The blow that Castro blocked just now was not a fatal blow with all his might, but was just one of countless attacks he would exchange in the future.
blast furnace.
Quang!
The arm flew off.
Although he managed to block the attack, Castro’s eyes widened at the powerful force that erupted one after another.
Shadows flew around.
Flash.
Dozens of shadows that were trying to protect Castro were torn apart at once, and Roman Dmitry had suddenly appeared right in front of Castro.
Castro stepped up his power.
He gritted his teeth and blocked Roman Dmitry’s attack, but Castro’s eyes shook greatly with each successive shock.
Every attack.
It went beyond common sense.
Although he was barely able to block the attack, Roman Dmitry swung his sword as if it was nothing.
Roman Dmitry.
No, the Heavenly Demon Baek Jung-hyuk.
I don’t want an opponent who can use the Heavenly Demon Sword Technique.
That was basic, but he wanted a powerful being who could threaten him in a confrontation where hundreds of sums were exchanged.
Flash.
“Kaaak!”
My arm flew off.
Flash.
My leg flew off.
With blood splattering everywhere, Castro looked at Roman Dmitri in disbelief.
dump.
I rolled around on the ground.
I didn’t have any more energy.
sell your soul
Even though I exploded my natural energy.
Even with a whopping 7-star base, the only area he could handle was a few exchanges of attack and defense with Roman Dmitry.
I struggled and tried to get up.
Losing one arm and one leg, he completely lost his balance, and while falling face down on the floor, he struggled to raise his head and look at Roman Dmitry.
“I told you so.”
A gaze looking down.
It was cold.
Roman Dmitry did not show the slightest threat or fear.
“I have never met an opponent who could boost my power.”
* * *
This wasn’t just a wall.
sky.
the sky above it.
A being so high that one cannot dare to surpass it.
I saw the essence of Roman Dmitry.
As he accepted the reality, Castro looked bewildered and laughed like a man out of his mind.
“Puhhhhh. Hahahaha, you really are a monster. Roman Dmitry was hit by the best sword on the continent!”
Passsss.
The darkness was pushed aside.
The shadows scattered.
On the castle wall.
The soldiers reacted in surprise.
They were taken aback by the darkness, but not long after, the darkness cleared and they suddenly saw the terrible sight of Castro kneeling.
I didn’t know what had happened.
What was certain was that although Castro did his best, he failed to defeat Roman Dmitri.
Castro said.
“If I leave you alone, you will probably attack Kronos’ capital and cut off the emperor’s head. by the way. What changes if you do that? You and I know the truth. The true body of Kronos is not the emperor. That is why I, who must protect the emperor, left the imperial family and am here.”
It was a shocking statement.
The existence of Kronos.
denied it.
Seeing the people’s confusion, Castro showed his eyes shining with madness.
“You offended Aleksandr. He allows no compromise, just like you do. If he decides to kill you and conquer the Salamander Continent. “It’s as if it has already become a reality.”
Passsss.
The bodies were scattered.
At the end of his life, Castro shouted as if he wanted to leave behind even the slightest regret.
“He will descend into this world. Master Alexandre will judge you personally in order to punish you who are struggling so hard. Look! Who are you dealing with? “While I am fighting here, the Kingdom of Cairo must be screaming in the abyss of despair.”
I couldn’t continue talking.
With his last words, his body completely disintegrated into smoke.
but.
What he said was true.
Right now at this moment.
While Roman Dmitry was dealing with Castro, a shadow of despair fell on Cairo’s western front.
