Chapter 144

The black armor had subtle purple patterns on it.

The sword he was holding was also emitting a strange light, and the most unusual thing was that it had no head.

It doesn’t mean that only the helmet is not worn, but the top of the shoulder is empty.

Anyone could see that this unusual guy was blocking Xian from approaching the cave.

‘I don’t feel like I’m being followed.’

Unlike normal monsters, even if they see Xian, they don’t chase after it to kill it.

As long as you moved away from the cave, there seemed to be no harm.

However, the moment you approach the cave even a little.

-Kooung!

The guy’s sword came flying.

As if this was a warning, his eyes widened to the side of Xian.

The feeling of literally guarding a cave.

There was no particular reason to go into the cave, though.

‘Shall we play?’

Xian was interested in the guy’s sword attack itself.

He drew his black sword and deliberately approached the cave.

The black knight reacts immediately. Hearing the warning, he cut the neck of the approaching Shian, and his sword rushed in unforgivingly.

Kang!

Xian raised his sword and slashed the guy’s sword.

Along with the colliding blades, Xian’s hand holding the sword rang out.

It was heavy.

It wasn’t just a force-only attack, but a swordsman with an exquisite center of gravity and timing.

that was swordsmanship

‘It doesn’t seem like an ordinary monster.’

Maybe it’s a high-ranking demon. I couldn’t ask because he had no face and couldn’t speak.

Kang! Can-can!

Fire splashed in the air several times.

The black knight aimed at Xian’s ankle, and Xian twisted his body halfway to avoid it.

At the same time, I thrust my sword towards the empty guy’s waist, but in fact, this was also the guy’s intention.

As if he had waited, he retrieved the sword and at the same time hooked it on Xian’s sword and tried to bounce it off.

However, Xian, who had been reading the movement from early on, turned the sword half a turn and knocked the guy off the sword.

This sword attack was continuing so quickly that it was hard to see with the naked eye.

Instead of relying only on strength and speed, tricks and psychological warfare are rampant.

‘Recently, I’ve only dealt with monsters.’

As a result, I mainly fought based on the size of my aura or energy.

It had been a long time since he had fought such a delicate battle with only his sword.

“Whoa.”

While he was dismissed, Xian regained the aura of the night that he had encroached on his son-in-law.

It wasn’t just a collection, but a full focus on the body and the sword.

‘Because if it’s dangerous anyway, I can get out of there right away.’

As long as you moved away from the cave, the black knight would stop attacking, so it was an acceptable choice.

A confrontation between perfect skills, excluding head-to-head confrontation between power and power, energy and energy.

The Black Knight, too, hadn’t used anything similar to mana, whether it was because he couldn’t use it or not.

Poof!

The black knight’s sword flew from the side, aiming for Xian’s neck.

Xian pulled himself out and moved to cut off his sword.

Then, at that moment, his sword disappeared.

When Xian opened his eyes slightly wide.

Its sword was shooting like a snake towards Xian’s chin from below.

A sharp sword, ready to pierce his neck at any moment, approaches the tip of his chin.

Seeing that, Xian.

‘Isn’t swordsmanship a joke?’

Instead, her eyes lit up and she quickly turned her head to the side.

The black knight’s sword, which had struck and climbed, grazed Xian’s cheek.

A few strands of hair that had been cut off fell from the sky onto the snow.

When the critical strike missed, the black knight took a slight step back and straightened his posture.

Seeing that guy, Xian laughed.

“While Psyche is sleeping, I won’t be bored.”

The guy I found by chance was more of a thing than I thought.

* * *

For days and days, Xian did not go down to the yeti village and continued to battle the black knight.

I haven’t been able to confirm whether it’s a monster or a devil yet.

The biggest difference between monsters and demons is intelligence.

When you see him using a sword, he seems to have intelligence, but when he sees other things, he doesn’t seem to have intelligence.

‘I’ll be sure if I use Ravi’s power.’

If it was fettered, it would be a demon, if not, it would be a monster, but Xian hadn’t tried that yet.

Before that, I wanted to share the sword with him more.

To be precise, the immediate goal was to bring him to his knees with only the sword.

Chaeeng-!

‘It’s clumsy overall.’

The overall quality of the sword of the Black Knight was not high.

I saw a lot of loopholes, and my coping skills weren’t that great.

Even so, the reason why Xi’an and the sword strike are connected is the sense that can be seen momentarily, and.

Whiik!

A sword full of life that can only be seen very rarely.

‘come.’

The guy’s sword was drawn. From that moment on, Xian could feel it.

An illusion as if the air around him was being sucked into his sword.

The first time I saw it, I was taken aback, but the more I looked at it, the more I got used to it.

but.

– Kwaaang!

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just because I was familiar with it didn’t mean I found a way to attack it.

Xian managed to block the shot of the sword. However, the remaining power of the sword penetrated Xian and blew him away.

It was a blow that would have pierced a hole in the heart if it had been blocked clumsily.

‘after.’

You have to attack that. That momentum you see sometimes.

Even with the usual black knight, it was possible to face off to some extent, but due to the occasional strike, Xian’s movements were further blocked.

If you can’t pierce that, you won’t be able to pierce him.

– Kang! Can-can!

‘Force.’

The aspect of the battle with the guy was consistent throughout.

push the guy If you do more than a certain amount, he will lose his balance little by little.

Then, when Xian strikes for the final blow.

The guy always counterattacked with his swordsmanship.

‘If I showed that swordsmanship a lot, it would be easy to find a strategy.’

but it seldom comes out. The guy didn’t show the sword unless he was cornered.

Is there some kind of limitation or is it just a habit?

‘then.’

Xian’s eyes lit up. There is no way.

‘I just need to be able to drive him more easily than now.’

Now, it is a level where you can see the swordsmanship only once if you divide it by tens or more than a lily if it is long.

However, if you can drive the guy to the point of despair in just one sum.

Then he would rely on his swordsmanship even more.

direction has been set.

Xian pointed his sword at him, observing his habits, mannerisms, how to distribute power, and so on.

After a really long time, it felt like going back to the time when I was learning from Yeomno.

‘At that time, I used to observe Yeomno’s movements in this way.’

That’s how he learned the sword.

Yeomno is a magician, but he is also good at swords, so Xian could learn a lot from his movements.

Of course, after he surpassed Yeomno’s swordsmanship, he continued to study on his own.

‘This guy is a great specimen.’

I’ve seen many tests so far. But I’ve never had the opportunity to observe it so well and so long at the same time.

Family head Agrid, President Zerech, and General Roderick were all high masters with swords, but Xian did not have a chance to deal with their swords for a long time.

A day passes like that, a week passes.

Soon after, a month passed.

In the meantime, except for the time to eat and sleep, Xian was clinging to the battle with the black knight.

There was no rest at all except for going down to the yeti village once in the middle and replenishing food.

– Kang!

Xian’s sword rushes at the black knight. The black knight hurriedly raised his sword and struck Xian’s sword away.

right after that.

‘Two sums.’

Xian’s eyes flashed and stabbed the black knight’s heart.

With the posture of the guy who just threw away his sword, it was a space that could never be matched.

For a month, Xian was able to completely absorb the Black Knight’s sword, and finally reached the point where he could beat him in just two seconds.

‘Gather.’

However, the black knight was neither taken aback nor perplexed.

The guy raised his sword. Even though Xian’s sword was approaching his chest, he raised his sword with both hands, revealing his upper body.

And that sword, to be precise, around the handle of the sword and the guy’s hand movements, felt like being sucked into it.

-Kaaang!

The guy struck the sword down, and on the contrary, Xian raised it.

The sword I encountered in the middle trembled.

‘yes! Ugh!’

Watching the black sword tremble as if it were going to break, Ravi was running around.

However, Xian could not afford to listen to Ravi’s complaint.

Because his eyes were only looking at the black knight beyond the swords they met.

‘I blocked it.’

I succeeded in blocking his blow.

I’ve seen this blow many times in a month, but it’s the first time I’ve blocked it.

It was an opportunity that came after a long time.

Caang!

Xian pushed the sword to break the guy’s posture, then took a step forward and swung the sword.

Conversely, the black knight, who fell back slightly and straightened up, gathered his sword again.

Kaaang!

blocked again

The shimmering black sword tore apart Xian’s palm holding it.

Sian gripped the sword even more, using the piercing pain to stay alert.

He continued to draw his sword.

Each and every one of them was a swordsman attacking the black knight.

The black knight continued to use polite strikes to counter Xian’s sword.

Caang! Caan, Caan!

A showdown of pure swordsmanship that uses neither aura nor mana.

The offense and defense were alternated several times, each attacking and blocking the other.

A sum that could not make a single mistake continued, and Xian’s concentration went beyond the limit.

‘I have to do it now.’

this time is low If you miss this opportunity, you never know when this trend will come again.

The sum of dozens and hundreds followed, and Xian’s eyes observed the guy’s sword.

To pierce the flow that forms the sword.

right after that.

– Keyring!

The guy drew his sword. We are preparing a bigger blow than before. A blow that was like a gamble where even a bastard couldn’t be sure whether it would work or not.

Xian’s eyes widened slightly.

and at the same time.

He also drew his sword just like the guy.

‘It took a long time.’

Xian’s eyes sank as he saw the sword of the black knight approaching.

The sword looked like it was in slow motion, and I could see every flow around it.

And then, Xian stretched out his sword.

a month and a few days.

His sword was mixed with the same flow as the sword of the Black Knight.

‘It’s the first time since I first grabbed the sword.’

To grasp and learn the core of the opponent’s swordsmanship. Xian acquired the sword from Yeomno that way.

Yeomno, who saw Xian’s talent, focused on showing more diverse swordsmanships without bothering to teach them one by one.

It was the first time since Xian learned his first swordsmanship that it took this long to learn a single swordsmanship.

– Kwaaang!

Two identical swords collided in the air.

It wasn’t the sound of metal colliding with metal like before, but the sound of a gong that pierced deep into the bones.

and.

Dismissed!

The sword of the Black Knight is cracked.

Xian cut it as if pulling a sword.

Chaeng-Geurang!

The broken black knight’s sword landed in the snow.

“Whoa.”

As the sword shattered, the black knight fell to his knees. It just stopped moving. It wasn’t completely solid, but I was just kneeling as it was.

Xian sat down on the snowy field, caught his breath, and looked at him for a while.

But the boy didn’t move, as if he was deeply heartbroken.

I can see some slight movement, so I don’t think it’s completely stopped.

Xian turned his head.

‘Let’s go in.’

A cave guarded by armor that uses strange swordsmanship.

Now that I’ve come this far, I can’t help but go in.
