Chapter 149 – Fighting the Black Monster – 1

Strong.

It’s stronger than any enemy I’ve ever met.

“Whoa… ….”

A black monster in the shape of Drake standing tall in front of me was looking at me, and saliva was dripping from its mouth.

To briefly describe its appearance, it was a black drake with at least dozens of tentacles sticking out from its spine.

However, there is a difference from a normal drake… Its size was about 3 to 4 times that of a normal drake, and most of all, it had no scales to protect its skin.

Monsters belonging to the same dragon species as Drake have a part called ‘Yeokjin’ or ‘Inverted Scales’.

As it is widely known, this injustice was the weakness of monsters belonging to the dragon species.

If the scales grew upside down, it means that the affected part is weaker than the other parts.

However, I couldn’t find scales on this mysterious monster standing in front of me, so naturally I couldn’t find any evil either.

I can say that monsters that look like this are very difficult to deal with from my point of view.

Many people would think that they could simply take out an aura blade and chop it up, but an aura blade is something only a sword master can literally create.

That means it consumes a lot more power than normal sword auras.

When I was living as Alberto Salihar Meidern, this was the reason why I was sluggish in the pincer attack of the Imperial Knights and the Elves.

Aura blade consumes more aura than sword aura.

Just as larger and stronger magic requires more mana to cast magic, Aura Blade requires more aura and mental strength as it is an upward compatible skill of Sword Aura.

“It’s filthy hard, really.”

And that monster I was facing, no, that monster I doubted whether it was a monster had a body so strong that it wouldn’t hurt me even when I swung a sword containing a sword aura.

There is a big difference between the sword aura developed by a swordsman with a sword expert and the sword aura developed by a swordsman with a sword master.

The names of the two skills are obviously the same sword aura, but the sword master’s sword aura was able to pull out a sword aura of similar strength using much less aura than the sword aura developed by a swordsman with a sword expert.

But now, that guy had no wounds other than minor wounds from the sword aura pulled up with the mysterious logic of the aura blade.

I even saw him extending his tongue out of his mouth and licking his wounds to heal them.

A monster with a strong body that heals minor wounds by licking them with its tongue, and is difficult to inflict fatal wounds with a sword aura.

It literally made me wonder if a legendary dragon had appeared.

‘However, the dragon in the legend didn’t have a bundle of tentacles.’

Among the materials I saw in the library, there was a book by a scholar who studied dragons for a long time.

I don’t know if what he saw in the book is true or not, but in the drawings he drew based on the data on dragons he had studied so far, there was no object with a bundle of tentacles on its back like the monster in front of me.

You never know.

Contrary to the scholar’s research, the dragon might have had a bundle of tentacles.

In the first place, it was dragons that were classified as monsters in myths or legends.

‘Its main method of attack is to swing its tentacles to inflict blows or extend its tentacles to inflict piercing damage. Then, to attack melee, you must move faster than the tentacle’s attack speed.’

As I looked at him and recalled the information in my head on how to attack, I naturally laughed.

Since becoming a sword master, has it ever made you think so much?

To be honest, I never did.

“Hey, monster.”

[Grrr?]

When I called out to the monster that was staring at me while drooling, it tilted its head as if it understood what I was saying.

“Because I never felt like I had to fight with all my might?”

[Groo?]

“By the way, seeing you today… Even if I collapse here, do you feel that I have to fight you with all my might?”

Until now, most of the people I’ve met have been ignorant guys.

No matter how strong you are, most of them have reached the level of Sword Expert.

However, today I finally met an enemy worthy of risking my life.

“Today, in this place, if you or I fight, one of them will definitely die.”

If you fight him, one of the two will surely die.

“However, it is not me who will die here today.”

However, I have absolutely no intention of dying here.

“Today, the guy who will fall on the ground bleeding…….”

I raised my sword, pointed it at the black monster, and opened my mouth.

“That’s right, you.”

Since I have to go back and date Nina, I’m definitely not going to pass out here today.

“I will fight with all my might.”

I stanced and infused the aura into the sword I was holding tightly with both hands.

An incomparable amount of aura began to flow into the sword compared to when the sword aura was deployed.

And slowly, the blade of the aura with a distinct shape began to rise slowly from the guard of the sword I was holding.

The blade of Aura that rose from the guard finally covered all parts of the sword, transforming into a perfect sword.

This is the true Aura Blade.

“Go.”

As I made an aura blade and took a fighting stance, the black monster also lowered its stance and moved a bunch of tentacles so that it could stab me at any time.

And then, the battle between me and the black monster began.

In the beginning, a bundle of tentacles controlled by a black monster rushed toward me like a darting arrow.

As I was deploying the Aura Blade, I was in a situation where I raised the Aura all over my body, so all of my physical abilities were dramatically improved.

As I focused my gaze on the tentacle that was approaching me, the movement of the tentacle slowly began to slow down.

It wasn’t that the tentacles slowed down, it was that my body’s biological time accelerated.

However, even if it was a slowly flying tentacle, its power could not be ignored.

However, unlike the sword aura, the aura blade that I pulled up with all my might did its job well enough.

The black monster’s tentacles, which were only able to bounce back with the sword aura, were cut off like a dry straw being cut in front of a sword covered with an aura blade.

[Gwoaaa!]

I cut off all the tentacles that were flying towards me and stepped back. As time began to flow back to normal, I saw the black monster roar in pain.

Unexpectedly, purple blood was flowing from the part where the tentacle was cut off.

The moment I saw the purple blood, I was sure this monster was from another world.

Because the blood of monsters from other worlds I faced before was also purple.

However, I didn’t have enough time to think about these kinds of jobs right now.

I gave strength to both legs and spurred the ground to run towards him while he was suffering from uncontrollable pain.

Now that he was suffering from pain, this was the right time to inflict damage on him.

I tightly gripped the sword covered with the Aura Blade and ran toward it.

When he saw me running, he hurriedly twisted his body to avoid my attack, but my physical ability, which was dramatically improved by raising my aura, moved faster than he was able to dodge the attack.

I cut the black monster’s leg with my sword.

As the aura blade touched his body, the smoke rose and the feeling of cutting through the flesh passed through my hand through the sword.

After cutting off his leg, I swung my sword upward and attacked his belly.

Then purple blood gushed from his abdomen like a severed tentacle! And poured out

I quickly backed away, not knowing what the blood might contain.

[Geuuu!]

It wasn’t enough that its tentacles were cut off, the black monster with cuts on its legs and wounds on its abdomen cried out at the sky with black tears shed.

Looking at the big, distracted guy crying out in pain, I rallied my fighting spirit once again.

I straightened my posture again and prepared to run toward him again.

However, the black monster that had been roaring with tears suddenly looked at me and opened its mouth.

‘Should be avoided!’

Instinctively, I decided I had to deviate from the direction his head was facing.

And it soon turned out that my judgment was correct.

It was because black spheres were fired from the open mouth of the black monster.

The black orb flew towards the direction I was standing.

However, the black orb that flew at high speed did not hit me and hit the ground behind me.

That’s because I moved faster than the black orb flew and avoided its attack.

The black orb I dodged soon hit the ground, causing a huge explosion.

The power of exploding black spheres was like watching Explosion, a high-level magic spell.

[Grrr.]

The guy didn’t roar anymore.

Instead, he looked at me and revealed his bloody intent to kill.
