Episode 18

―Coooung!

The Goblin King slammed the ground with his foot. Then, with a thump, it rushed towards Xi’an at random.

Hergé, who was trying to insert the dagger at the gap, was taken aback by the man’s movements.

The weapon she is holding is a dagger focused on stealth.

Because of this, it was difficult to block the enemy who rushed ignorantly like a wild boar.

“Whoa… … .”

Seeing the Goblin King terrifyingly charging at him, Xian caught his breath.

‘If I run away, the lying guys are in danger.’

Levi and his subordinates.

I had no loyalty to protect them, but I couldn’t let them die.

The situation is over when the professor comes anyway, so we just have to hold on until then.

That was the least risky, safest choice.

‘Calm down.’

Xian calmly took a breath and observed him.

Even while the ground shook at his footsteps and the air trembled at his spirit, he did not forget ‘how to see’.

“Kraaa!”

Without killing the momentum with which he was charging, he swung the iron bar as it was.

It even gives the illusion that the atmosphere is being compressed.

No matter how hard he was, he couldn’t take it head-on. It was like jumping into an oncoming tank with your bare body.

So, it moved at the same time he started swinging the bar.

forward, not backward. Towards the place where that bastard’s iron bar is swinging.

“Kreuk?”

The goblin king’s face twitched when the prey, rather than avoiding it, approached.

Seeing that expression, Xian was convinced that his choice was not wrong.

‘If I had fallen backward, I would have suffered more.’

Bondi all strikes are to be swung after setting the hitting point.

It was impossible to change the hitting point while wielding a weapon unless you were a good master.

The Goblin King wasn’t such an expert.

Quaang!

“Kuk!”

Xian’s sword collided first before the bar could even be fully swung.

When I blocked the iron bar with a sword held at an angle, his body was pushed back.

Two lines of footprints left on the ground.

Fortunately, the charge of the guy who killed the momentum was enough to let him go.

“Kheuuong!”

As soon as the blow of his own conversion was missed, he ran even more frantically.

Xian hurriedly lowered his upper body.

Booung! An iron bar passing by cut off a few strands of his hair.

Kang! Can-can!

His iron bar and Xian’s sword collided in the air several times.

Embers flew from the clash of iron against iron, and fatal blows were exchanged on both sides.

‘… … .’

I rolled sideways to avoid the iron bar that struck me like a thunderbolt.

And as soon as he straightened his posture, he thrust his sword toward his ankle.

As if he had expected it, he withdrew his foot. At the same time, he used that momentum to swing an iron bar, but was blocked by Xian’s sword and missed.

‘Strength is no joke.’

he squinted his eyes

Even though it was clearly flowed at the correct angle, the whole arm was tingling.

He glanced at the guy’s shoulder.

The strange tattoo on his shoulder was glowing with magic power.

‘Is it a power-enhancing spell?’

Obviously, the guy’s size and muscles were considerable, but it was an inexplicable strength.

The magical power contained in that spell must be clear.

‘Still, technically I’m far above. It’s well worth it.’

Thinking so, the moment I collided head-on with the iron bar.

dismissal.

‘… … !’

It felt like a small crack.

It was gold that was born on the sword he was holding, not anywhere else.

And that meant cracking the current situation, which was like a balance on a knife edge.

“hey! I’m here to help! Back off at once!”

“Xian, Xi’an student!”

Immediately after that, a sound came from behind.

cooong!

Dust rose and I saw two men getting up.

One is Professor Derek, who gets up with an unsightly butt.

And the other was Allen Kruger, proudly holding a sword encased in blue flames.

Xian’s eyebrows twitched.

‘Allen?’

why is that guy here?

Did he sense the commotion when he was nearby and ran?

“draft!”

Allen hears a voice.

Hearing his voice, Xian was finally able to make up his mind.

It’s time to get out.

however.

-Kaang!

However, his body was not removed at all.

“Kheuuong!”

“Suck!”

His eyes filled with doubt as he blocked the Goblin King’s barbed wire.

Obviously, there are several opportunities to pull yourself out.

No, even if you turn around and run away right now without looking for an opportunity, you should be able to handle it well since Professor Derek is here.

But it was strange.

His feet weren’t listening to him.

– Booung!

It dodges the flying iron bar with a paper gap.

He could have escaped being hit directly, but the wind pressure alone created a slight scratch on his shoulder.

Unconsciously, as if he was accustomed to it, he counterattacked.

‘ah.’

Only then did he realize.

Her head was screaming ‘I’ve endured enough, so I have to take it off now’, but her heart still had lingering feelings for this battle.

because.

‘There is still one number left.’

Because I haven’t tried everything to bring him down.

Because I didn’t risk my life to win.

his heart was screaming.

Even though there is still something you can do, you don’t challenge and take your body out.

Chasing small risks and choosing only stable options.

If you choose such an easy path, you will never be able to escape from the fate of Agrid’s shadow.

It’s not enough to just choose to pass the moment smoothly. What is always needed is a challenge to overcome the limit.

If you repeat it and don’t overcome it, that future won’t change at all.

He fully comprehended the cry.

Just now.

From the top of the hill, Professor Derek was looking only at Xi’an.

Ergé put in checks in between, but in the end, the core of this battle was Xian facing the Goblin King from the front.

“Uh, how… … .”

How can you compete with the Goblin King on such an equal footing?

Professor Derek’s eyes trembled like crazy.

He is a professor of demonology. Of course, he knew very well the destructive power of the object called the Goblin King.

Even now, isn’t that guy even stronger with the power of the red stone?

‘He’s not someone I can deal with at the level of a student!’

However, the sight in front of him was a direct denial of his thoughts.

Aren’t the freshmen who are just students, who just entered this year, proudly confronting each other?

Now, I can’t even remember the original plan.

It was that shocking. The sight that Xi’an shows.

at that time.

“professor?”

“What are you doing here?”

“Hee!”

He jumped up in surprise at the sound he heard from behind.

When I turned around, the familiar students were looking at me with puzzled eyes.

“Ah, student Allen! Gaelic students! Uh, how about… … !”

Allen, who was his target, and Gail, his roommate.

Did you see yourself just now? The one who just stared at the bottom of the cliff?

Professor Derek’s expression became restless.

And then Allen and Gail looked at him with more questioning eyes.

– Kang! Can-can!

“!”

“Down!”

At that time, Allen and Gail rushed out at once when they heard the sound of knife strikes from under the cliff.

Professor Derek’s head went blank and he couldn’t think of anything else.

Allen passed him by and witnessed the bottom.

“What are you doing! I have to go help right now!”

“Uh, uh… … that is… … wait a minute! aaagh!”

He grabbed the restless Derek by the wrist and jumped off the cliff.

A go away scream escaped Professor Derek’s mouth.

cooong!

And the two fell off the cliff.

Allen landed safely on both feet in a splendid way, and Professor Derek fell unsightly.

“hey! I’m here to help! Back off at once!”

“Xian, Xi’an student!”

the two shouted.

Professor Derek was just a reflexive call to guilt. On the contrary, Allen was really called to help Xian.

He shouted as he wrapped his sword in blue flames. May Xian step back.

Right now, Xian and the Goblin King were so close together that they were constantly exchanging sword strikes, so they couldn’t intervene.

So I waited until he fell off the Goblin King. to break in then.

But it was strange.

“Sian Agrid!”

Xian wasn’t backing down at all.

* * *

“draft! The professor is here! You can stop now!”

“Sian Agrid!”

Loud shouts were heard all around. It was all about him.

I was grateful for that heart.

‘Noisy.’

It was noisy.

Right now, Xian couldn’t even focus on the Goblin King alone.

Gradually the sound started to fade away.

Ergé and Allen were still shouting something, but unfortunately he didn’t hear it.

A quiet place where all noise is gone.

world of focus.

A silent arena where only two beings, me and the enemy, remain and share swords.

-Pajik.

“Quaaa!”

In the meantime, the gold of the sword continued to grow.

Make sure to read from noble mtl dot com

Just as a once cracked dam quickly bursts, his sword was breaking like that.

Still, he did not back down.

‘The moment the sword breaks.’

This is the most dangerous moment.

A sword, the only weapon to protect oneself and the only shield. the moment it disappears

but at the same time.

‘That’s the biggest opportunity.’

At that moment, the opponent has no choice but to be vigilant.

Carelessness is like an unstoppable poison.

It is a feeling that cannot be erased no matter how much you train your mind and strengthen your fighting spirit. It is like an instinct that is engraved at the base of living things.

The moment the sword breaks, that of the Goblin King will suddenly stick its head out.

right after that.

Great! Blasphemy!

Chaeng-Geurang!

Geary, the sword that had reached its limit was broken.

Shards of swords scattered and reflected the sparkling sunlight.

The broken body of the sword fell to the floor.

What was left in his hand was a short, short sword that could be called a dagger.

“K-K-K-K-K-K-K!”

Looking at the shortened sword, the Goblin King laughed loudly.

There are still many enemies left around him. Allen, Erze, and Gail.

But at this moment alone, following the dictates of instinct, they cheered for victory.

“… … .”

And that was exactly what Xian had been waiting for.

He took a step closer, brandishing his shortened blade at the creature’s neck.

The sword attack was quite different from before.

There was no sound of cutting through the air, nor the sound of arm swinging.

A sword attack that lost its sound, presence, and even the life in it.

‘Say.’

The stillness is like a lake,

When I realized, there was only the red sea.

[ Heavenly Sword – True ]

In an instant, a line like the horizon dividing the sea and sky was reflected in his eyes. Following the sword he drew, the space was divided up and down.

There was no explosive power and speed like the other islands that were in the middle of the day.

There was a young swordsman quietly drawing his sword.

and.

-Suddenly.

There was only a stream of blood gushing out like a fountain.
