The Indomitable Martial King Chapter 57

‘That’s right, it’s because I didn’t understand it as an auror.’

Leppenhardt laughed inwardly as he looked at Eusus who was embarrassed. Surely his senses did not detect the yuseus. If it is a powerful magical protection or divine spell, it can fool the Auror user’s senses. Just as Silan deceived Lantas’ senses in the Principality of Chatan.

However, Repenhardt not only has a sense of energy, but also has an excellent ability to detect magic power. It’s clear that I can’t feel it, but the hidden magic is slowly leaking out from there, and if I can’t feel it, I’ll have to give up the title of Demon King from my previous life.

Moreover, Reppenhardt had a good idea of ​​why Eusus did what he did.

“I guess you wanted to check my skills, right? But isn’t it a bit too much to throw all your knights as test subjects, are you?”

Eussus’s complexion hardened.

It was literally like that. Originally, he had planned to run out right away. But when I saw the collapsed castle wall, I changed my mind.

The thief’s skills were completely different from last night. I don’t know why, but unlike yesterday, he is openly using his Auror powers. The golden aura is so easy to recognize.

Even if the continent is large, there is only one Mumun who uses golden aura. At least the pilgrim boy was telling the truth.

If you were the successor to Jim Unbreakable and a descendant of the famous King Gerad, even with Eldrad’s power, you could not guarantee victory. But it was a battle that should never be lost. You had to defeat your opponent and get the relic back.

So, after much deliberation, Yusus abandoned his subordinates. In any case, there is no room for individual knights in a battle between the truly powerful. If you are dealing with a proper Auror, the existence of knights is just an obstacle. In that case, you have a better chance of winning by looking at the author’s battles and gaining more information than dealing with the author along with the knights.

If you look at the odds of winning, Yussus’s judgment was right. However, it is also true that it is a despicable act that a renowned golden knight should never undertake.

“Rumors say he is a bright and honest knight, but he has a rather sinister side, doesn’t he?”

“Uh, um… … .”

Eussus continued to groan at Reppenhardt’s mocking and mocking words. He didn’t expect to be caught, so he couldn’t think of anything to say in response.

As if driving a wedge, Reppenhardt asked the question again.

“Or why did you show up so late? “Even if I had come naked and rolled around with a woman, I think I would have gotten there faster than this, right?”

Seeing Yussus speechless, the expressions of the Tenness Knights also hardened strangely.

“no way… … .”

“You can’t possibly do that… … .”

The excitement of the subordinates is clearly felt. As suspicion and disbelief slowly rose in the eyes, Eussus shouted, trying hard to pretend to be Taeyeon.

“I was so tired that I fell asleep for a while without realizing it. Because of that, I just couldn’t wake up in time!”

“Even though the castle wall was destroyed, you didn’t break it? “Are you some kind of Sleeping Beauty knight?”

I have to say something that makes sense. The noise made by the collapse of the castle wall was not only noise, but the ground shook violently as if there had been an earthquake. Even if I was sleeping soundly in bed, I would have rolled over in that amount.

“noisy! “You evildoer!”

Yeosus shouted loudly and raised his sword. The distrust on the knights’ faces was growing stronger. If you let him continue talking, some dishonorable story might come out. You must cover the other person’s mouth.

“I will hold you accountable for tarnishing the name of Tenes!”

Yusus flew into the air, swinging the magic sword Eldran.

“The blade of the sky, I tear the sky!”

Throwing down his sword, Yusus shouted a command. The blade of wind flies towards Reppenhardt. Reppenhardt lowered his stance and burst into spirit.

“Haaaab!”

At that moment, a golden storm exploded from his entire body. Caught up in that momentum, all the blades of wind disappear in the air. Can you destroy magic just by manifesting an aura? Yusus continued to shout, gritting his teeth.

“The eyes of the grim reaper, pierce the shadows, the cry of a leopard, dwells in the limbs! Let’s look down on the world with the senses of a dragon!”

Reppenhardt quickly threw his body towards Yussus, who had strengthened his entire body, and delivered a magnificent spinning kick. Yusus dodged the attack by lightly jumping back. At that moment, Reppenhardt’s eyes lit up.

‘It’s good to avoid, but that doesn’t mean you should throw yourself into the air!’

How often did you see blood like that when you sparred with Gerrard? With a repentant smile, Reppenhardt stamped his foot for the follow-up hit. It was time to take advantage of the momentum of his jump and swing a long hook.

“I will become a feather riding the wind!”

Yusus kicked the air and launched himself again. Thanks to this, the timing was off and the punch hit the air.

‘Oh, that bastard can use magic, too.’

By applying the 4th circle spell, Wind Walk, you can launch yourself again using the air as a stepping stone. Of course, it requires a high level of balance, so wizards only use it to slow down when falling, but it is a very popular spell for high-level magic swordsmen.

‘Damn, Siris was also good, so why didn’t I think of that?’

Reppenhardt lands on the floor again and takes a stance. Yusus, who has widened the distance, glares at him and grits his teeth. Reppenhardt clicked his tongue, feeling outright hostility. Was I being too sarcastic? He looks as angry as he can be.

‘Tsk, actually I didn’t mean to criticize you that much.’

Seeing what he was doing made me feel sick, so I lost my temper without even realizing it.

‘But even so, why are you so overreacting, you bastard?’

To be honest, only Reppenhardt knows how to use Eleusion’s voice. Quite a few people knew about it in his past life, but since he was the one who researched its use, figured it out, and presented it to the wizarding society, there is no way that anyone in this era knows about it.

In other words, from the perspective of the Tenes family, the voice of Eleusion is just one of the unidentified relics of the Silver Age. Even if you lose it, there is no reason for it to be a problem at all. So Leffenhardt also thought about stealing without much remorse.

But right now, Eussus’s expression was showing an extreme reaction, as if Leffenhardt had taken some kind of Tenes family heirloom and splattered it. Honestly, I don’t quite understand.

‘That’s not something a thief would say… … .’

With a bitter smile, Reppenhardt looked at Eusus. Eusus also looks straight at Reppenhardt. While they were looking at each other for a moment and examining the situation, Eusus stretched out Eldran and memorized a command.

“The flow of purity that makes up the world, come to my sword!”

A dazzling white energy covered the body of the magic sword Eldran. Reppenhardt was impressed after reading the magic pattern felt from the sword.

‘Is it the Arcane Blade, a sword of pure magic? ‘With that, you can definitely deal with Aurors.’

This is the magic he used most often in his past life when he received the sword of an Auror. Of course, Reppenhardt did not swing it directly, but used an automatic reaction technique to levitate it in the air so that it could attack and defend on its own.

“Taaat!”

Yussus kicked the ground and narrowed the distance with Reppenhardt. The Arcane Blade sprayed dozens of sword lights into the air. Powerful energies of destruction flew in from all directions, front, left, and right at a speed beyond human limits.

Even Reppenhardt cannot belittle an arcane blade wielded by a body greatly strengthened by the barded Eldrad. He stepped back and avoided repeated attacks.

Suddenly!

During the ceaseless rush, an arcane blade lightly grazed Reppenhardt’s chest. He frowned for a moment. Even though it was only skin, it felt like a definite cut. He was cut even though he was not in his usual state and was in a state where his entire body was strengthened with auras to surpass even steel. He glances down and sees a little blood trickling down his chest and seeping into his collar.

‘As expected, I can’t stop Arcane Blade with just my body.’

“die!”

With a voice full of murder, Yusus strikes down his sword again. This time, I raised my forearm to block the attack. Bring out the aura and apply intense rotation.

“Spiral guard!”

Jim Unbreakable’s strongest defense method – or rather, it is actually the only defense method. Because there is no reason to believe that most things can be dealt with with the body alone, Reppenhardt carefully received the attack. If I thought this wasn’t enough, I was ready to quickly pull my arm out.

Squeeze!

The blade and the rotating auror clashed, making an eerie noise. Leffenhardt grinned.

‘This works.’

If his forearm is equipped with a spiral guard, even the Arcane Blade cannot cut it. That means it can also block Blade Aurors.

With confidence, Reppenhardt wrapped a spiral guard around both forearms to block one attack after another. It blocks and at the same time gradually counterattacks. There were dozens of battles between the two. The white sword light and golden aura collided countless times, emitting a roar that tore through the air.

Kwa-kwa-kwa-kwak!

Once Reppenhardt launched a counterattack in earnest, Yusus, who seemed to have gained the upper hand for a moment, gradually fell back.

Flicking his hands and feet, Reppenhardt suddenly glanced beyond the inner walls, toward the center of Kelbern Castle. He muttered to himself as he looked at the large castle with bonfires burning here and there.

‘Anyway, I don’t know if Tila is doing well.’

☆ ☆ ☆

Silan and Siris were having a late lunch in a dark dungeon, barely able to see through a small bonfire.

Although he was chained, the treatment was not as bad as he thought. First of all, thanks to Silan blowing up everything, they were not tortured, and thanks to that, it was also known among the knights that they were the bridesmaids. Because there was a strong perception that they were innocent children, they were not harassed and a decent meal was provided.

Cilan asked Siris as he dipped bread into the soup.

“What happened?”

It was about 10 minutes ago. As I was lazily rolling around on my bed, I suddenly heard a loud noise and the ground shook as if there had been an earthquake. The sound was loud enough to be clearly heard even in this windowless dungeon deep in the ground.

“Did a volcano erupt somewhere?”

However, I have never heard of an active volcano in the Setelad Mountains. I asked the guard guarding the prison gate just in case, but all I heard was a yell telling me to be quiet.

Siris quietly opened the bread and tilted her head.

“Couldn’t Mr. Reppenhardt have come to save us?”

“Hey? “He seemed chilly, but he seemed surprisingly confident that he would come to rescue me.”

Looking at his usual attitude, it seemed like he never trusted Leffenhardt, but surprisingly, the answer came right away. Siris stuttered for a moment, looking at Silan who looked curious.

“Well, that’s… … .”

After sighing, Siris wiggled her fingers.

“I don’t know, about Mr. Leffenhardt. “Why do you treat me like that?”

“Isn’t it just because you’re an elf fanatic?”

Siris looked blank for a moment at Cilan’s merciless remarks. Aren’t these two colleagues? Surprisingly, the evaluation is harsh.

“Well, at first I thought he was just a person who was into role playing.”

“It sure looks like that, doesn’t it?”

Cilan giggled. Siris shook her head.

“But those eyes… … .”

Those vague eyes that she sometimes showed, and the light of deep emotions contained within them, were confusing her. That light, those eyes filled with extreme affection that her parents showed her during her childhood, which she barely remembered.

“I don’t think it’s that simple of a reason.”

Cilan nodded as if he understood, looking at Siris who was whispering quietly.

“I heard that usually women fall for men like that.”

“yes?”

“I heard that if you are nice to them, there is something to it, that you are different from others, that this person is special, etc., and end up moving on. 그리고 결혼하고 나서 ‘속았다, 이 개새끼!’를 외친대. “The nun at the orphanage who took care of me when I was young said that.”

“Yeah, really?”

Siris looked at Silan with a confused face. How on earth does that orphanage nun have such a turbulent past that she has such a cruel way of thinking? Siris suddenly became curious.

After slurping down the soup, Silan lay down. And he grumbled and muttered.

“Anyway, Mr. Leppen too. “If you’re going to steal, you better be careful. If you get caught, what’s going to happen to Siris and me?”

“But, it doesn’t seem like you have any particular resentment towards Repenhardt?”

He is a priest by name. Strangely enough, even though a person who serves God is caught up in the crime of theft and ends up in prison, Silan doesn’t seem to care much about it.

“Well, I am also an accomplice when I agree to steal. “I am also responsible for not being able to stop it.”

Of course, Silan grinned, saying that he might have changed his mind if he had been tortured here. In the first place, it may be true that Leffenhardt was the kind of person who covets other people’s things, but he understands that the situation was unavoidable and there is no particular reason to be resentful.

“As you live, there will inevitably come situations where you cannot live by following all the laws.”

And in fact, the doctrine of Philanense is not particularly concerned with law and morality. Originally, there were many forms of love that were not tolerated by worldly law, such as adultery and homosexuality. As a result, the clergy of Philanense were somewhat lax in their moral concepts.

Siris opened her eyes and muttered.

“You’re more mature than you look. “Silan is.”

“No, I’m not that young? You’re turning 20 next year? “I’m only three years older than Mr. Leffen.”

“Eek! “I thought we were about 20 years older than each other?”

“… … Hey, I’m going to cry when I hear Mr. Leffen… … .”

Anyway, they were two people having fun without any tension despite being in prison. They were just chatting like that.

Suddenly, an angry guard’s voice was heard outside.

“What? “You’re coming here to talk about slavery?”

Then immediately followed by a popping sound followed by a moan.

“Ooooooo… … .”

Cilan and Siris looked at each other with wide eyes.

“what?”

“What is it?”

After a while, you can hear the sound of a key being opened. The prison door burst open and a pretty young girl stuck her head out.
