#516 That man is a monster.
Itâs easy to misunderstand because he explicitly reveals his displeasure, but Wanderer wasnât the type to get excited easily.
rather the opposite.
It was her personality to always keep a cool head and calculate even anger.
but this moment.
Itâs been a long time since she really wasâ¦
No, in a sense, for the first time in her life, she was so mad that her reason completely flew away.
It was natural.
Resurrecting the 9 Sword Masters, she was cut down to the extent of her lifespan.
However, one such precious sword master went out on his own and caused a riot even to the president and died.
As a Wanderer, it felt like blood was gushing backwards.
If thatâs the only thing though.
could have endured
Ever since the sword masters went out for a walk on their own, one or two of them had been prepared for this to happen.
But the truth she heard from Billy was enough to make her go crazy.
âwhatâ¦? duel? If we had time to do something like that, we should have just cut our sword balls together and stole the Seven Arcs!â
âThen the Sword Saint must have really wanted to kill us first?â
Geomrang shrugged.
at the time of world war.
Even after forming an alliance with the Swordsman, the swordsman was the one who challenged Limon to a duel at the end of the war, excluding the option of joining forces.
Considering his personality, he could have gone through a real sword fight.
âThen kill the Sword Saint tooâ¦!â
ââ¦donât say things lightly, lady. If that were the case, it would have been just me and the death penalty.â
Because it was Limon, the decision was made relatively quickly.
The swordsman was so strong that it would be no wonder that other sword masters would fight for at least several days or even lose their lives in an instant.
Especially developed during duels.
One breath beyond one step.
Even the level of performing the sword art with just a blink of an eye was phenomenal.
If he fought with all his might, Billy or Vlad would not have a high chance of winning.
If Limon had been added to that, there was no need to say anything.
More than anythingâ¦
âWasnât it Lady who asked me to catch the swordsman in the first place?â
âBenefitâ¦!â
It was their fate that they couldnât fight with swordsmen and full power even because of the spell.
So, Wanderer gnashed his teeth when he saw Billy smirking and telling him to blame himself for giving such instructions.
Certainly because he was right.
But it wasnât that she didnât have anything to say.
âThen you should have killed the swordsman even after the duel was overâ¦!â
âWell, thatâs definitely what Lady said.â
Billy scratched the back of his head.
The duel ended quickly, but during that moment, the swordsmanâs injuries to Limon were not light.
At least, it was clear that it would be difficult to exert oneâs strength.
It was definitely a good opportunity to kill Limon.
Butâ¦
âIf only we were in a situation where we could win.â
ââ¦what do you mean?â
âIt means donât underestimate Master.â
after laughing.
suddenly smile
Billy spoke coldly.
âThat man is a monster even by our sword master standards.â
ââ¦â
Wanderer was at a loss for words.
What an absurd existence the Sword Master is.
Having taken the Sword King to various tests, she knew.
It was because of this that she, who reigned as the absolute ruler of this era, resurrected the sword masters in droves while reducing their lifespan.
However, no matter how strong Limon was, he did not know that even the same sword master would evaluate him this way.
âYouâre saying that even though youâre injured, youâre strong enough that even if the two of you fight, itâs hard to winâ¦?â
âI donât mean that.â
ââ¦then what do you mean?â
âHmm, itâs a bit complicated to explain in words.â
Billy scratched his chin.
And it sounds like you had a good idea.
Standing with his back against the wall, he casually asked Vlad, who had been silent until now.
âHow many steps can you take to death?â
ââ¦seven steps.â
âYou are amazing. I donât think Iâll ever be within 10 steps.â
âDonât be quick to judge. What canât be done in years can be done in an instant.â
âOkay, letâs come. On the contrary, it is really far away when you think that it can not be done even if it takes several hundred years.â
âA Master would have told me to work harder.â
âThatâs why Master isnât a monster.â
Vlad speaks earnestly.
When Billy giggles again.
Wanderer, who frowned at the unknown conversation, cried out impatiently.
âWhatâs with the steps!â
âLetâs talk about this.â
thump thump.
Itâs like you want to show it yourself.
Billy smiled and took a step.
Taking a walk, leisurely drawing a large circle around the Wanderer.
I was about to shout again because I couldnât see the joke-like behavior.
âWhat are you doing nowâ¦!â
squeak.
ââ¦â
Wanderer hardened.
It wasnât just because Billy, who had been three or four steps away a while ago, suddenly appeared right in front of him.
It was because of his neatly cut collar and the knife in his hand.
âHmm, is 12 steps the limit right now? Sword Saint, that nobleman did such a difficult task in one step.â
Are you sorry?
Are you admiring it?
Even tongue-in-cheek once.
Billy put the knife back in and smiled at Wanderer.
âAre you surprised, lady?â
Wanderer did not answer.
Instead, he gritted his teeth and clenched his hands.
The moment when the black pattern engraved on the back of her hand shone softly.
Paperweight!
âQueuck!â
âAyaya, surrender, surrender!â
âLady I die! You really die!â
It took a long time to see Billy rolling on the floor clutching his neck as sparks flicked out of his black tattoo.
Wanderer, who finally released his clenched hands, spoke in a bleak voice.
ââ¦If you touch me again, Iâll kill you.â
âTo overreact to something that was a bit of a jokeâ¦â
Dismissal!
âYes Lady! I will serve you politely from now on!â
Was the pain still lacking?
Itâs been a while since I stare at Billy, who playfully salutes me while bleeding from his neck.
Wanderer asked coldly.
âSo what does this prank have to do with Limon Aspelder being a monsterâ¦?â
âWell, if youâre a sword master, you can of course imitate someone elseâs swordsmanship.â
Simple swordsmanship, of course.
Even the sword that forms the basis.
If you are a sword master, you can learn anything related to swords as soon as you see them.
Even the swordsman.
Even he and Vlad were able to learn some of the Sword Saintâs swordsmanship just by watching this duel.
Of course, itâs a crude imitation.
Itâs not at the level of being usable right now, but if you spend enough time training, youâll be able to use it in real combat.
Because thatâs what a sword master is.
âAnd our master is a nobleman who has lived the longest among those sword masters.â
ââ¦â
âDo you know what that means?â
ââ¦The basic experience points are different?â
âRight Lady. There is no sword master in the world who has absorbed as many swordsmen and trained like that.â
Geomrang smiled.
Because of the point of immortality.
Or because most of them were from the Sword Tower.
Itâs easy to misunderstand, but in fact, the opportunity to experience the swords of other sword masters was rare.
It was rather difficult to reveal the sword recklessly as it was possible to steal the opponentâs sword and find loopholes just by looking at it once.
Even those who had met several sword masters in the first place were rare.
In that sense, Limon was special.
sometimes taught.
Sometimes we fight together.
sometimes teach
sometimes killing
Of course, I met all 13 sword masters that existed in history.
Because Limon was the only one who had seen and experienced the swords of all of them and fully mastered the swordsmanship.
Even Limon didnât stop there, he even thoroughly embodied an imperfect sword over hundreds of years and incorporated it into his own swordsmanship.
By absorbing only the strengths of other sword mastersâ swordsmanship.
âThatâs why the noblemanâs swordsmanship has neither compatibility nor weakness.â
Even a sword master is not without weaknesses.
The sword king was killed by sword fire.
For the swordsman, swordlight is his natural enemy.
As if the swordsman could not defeat the swordsman.
They became sword masters based on their lifelong swordsmanship, so it was difficult for them to overcome the compatibility that stemmed from their respective swordsmanship.
In other words, rock, paper, scissors is decided according to the swordsman.
However, Limon, who has embodied all 13 swordsmanships, can change the rock-paper-scissors depending on the opponent.
Even if not as much as the original owner of the sword, it could become the natural enemy of all sword masters.
âEven that noble swordsman canât find loopholes, let alone learn by stealing.â
On the other hand, Limonâs foundation is the dragon killing sword.
Only the three sword masters who had suffered a death-dealing battle with the seven dragons of the Bronze Age were able to master it.
It was a will that even the students of the Sword Tower could not realize even if they had learned it.
The sword master fighting Limon had no choice but to accept the disadvantage as if he were fighting an opponent wearing armor naked and showing his weakness.
That alone makes Limon a monster.
It wouldnât be an exaggeration to say that he was a sword master just to kill the sword masterâ¦
âBut thatâs not the real scary thing about that man.â
ââ¦Then what is it?â
âThatâs what it means to really do something like that.â
ââ¦â
âNormally, sword masters donât do such things, even if theyâre ashamed.â
The sword king did that.
Just like the swordsman did.
Ordinary sword masters do not wear someone elseâs sword.
In the first place, it was impossible to perfectly imitate another sword masterâs swordsmanship.
It was better to supplement and develop oneâs swordsmanship than to waste time perfecting such half-assed skills.
âBut my master does.â
ââ¦â
âAnd thatâs what Iâm talking about. Take care of your ego after itâs gone.â
The guardian deity of mankind who has protected the world from countless tribulations.
It means that he used any means to protect the world.
pointed out sharply.
Geomrang added a word.
âItâs the black man who didnât know that and then died.â
ââ¦black?â
âThe assassin that even my master acknowledged was the hardest to kill of all the sword masters.â
A sword master who specialized in assassination rather than confrontation as an assassin before he was a swordsman.
Even Limon could defeat Black in a head-to-head confrontation, but it was not easy to find and kill him.
After the death of the Sword King and the Sword Master.
Thatâs why Black was able to stage all sorts of terror and aim for Limonâs life.
âDo you know how our master killed that man?â
ââ¦.â
How did you kill such a sword?
Billy twitched his lips as he watched Wanderer keep silent because he couldnât even guess.
âHe was assassinated.â
âcancer⦠fat?â
âIt means that the nobleman, who was already the strongest at the time, lured the greatest assassin of all times and times into a trap and stabbed him in the back with a sword.â
ââ¦â
âEven when I was fighting the Seven Dragons, I did worse than that.â
Billy giggled.
It was only buried in the achievement of being the guardian of mankind.
Limon threw away his pride and did everything to protect humanity.
A real monster that he feared and avoided confronting even the other sword masters who had cut him to become a monster.
âThat man has survived for nearly a thousand years.â
I survived because I was strong.
Be strong enough to survive.
The strongest of all sword masters.
He possesses as many as 13 swordsmen, and has tremendous strength, talent, and experience to further develop them during a duel.
A lump of irrationality that will make even the last boss cry and run away in that he will do anything to win.
âDid our master come to meet the swordsman without thinking?â
ââ¦.â
As if he already realized the answer.
Looking at the silent wanderer.
Billy declared with a meaningful face.
âI assure you, if we had fought Master on the spot, we would have been the ones who would have died, right?â
