1 Second Sword Master Episode 31

[I will kill the wicked Aslan and put the Kingdom of Eli under the Kingdom of Omer to judge!]

According to Rebecca’s information, the Kingdom of Omer declared war on the Kingdom of Eli.

the problem is,

‘Why are you fucking with me.’

Anyone who sees it will know that I am the king of Eli Kingdom.

It is unfair.

‘If this happens, I have no choice but to go to Jeongseokdae.’

I have two options left.

Read at readwn.com

Join forces with Elberstein’s supporters to wage war against the Kingdom of Omer, or follow the story to persuade Lucian to drive out Rivertail.

‘Of course I should choose the latter.’

I hate war. scary.

Setting aside the level of difficulty, how am I supposed to go where spears are flying from all sides?

I don’t want to experience the grand battle scene that I only enjoyed on the game monitor with my own body.

‘We have to minimize the damage to our kingdom.’

Even if they die fighting among themselves, they must not let the shrimp of the Eli kingdom burst.

‘If you want to be at a disadvantage-.’

At that time, you just have to pass Elberstein and finish.

“Nice to meet you. Commander of the Air Division, Aslan.”

I looked at Elberstein, who just in time came in with the lord of Ricard.

“Come on. Lord Ricard.”

Perhaps he was nervous, Ricard’s complexion hardened.

He sat in his seat with a stiff posture.

“First of all, thank you for taking care of our prince. I was moved when I heard that he did not do so even though he could have handed it over to the Omer Kingdom at any time.”

The lord of Ricard was definitely on Elberstein’s side.

As the story progressed, the help of the Lord of Ricard was absolutely necessary.

“I will never forget this favor.”

“I just judged what was just and what was injustice. No big deal.”

[Richard]

Armed Forces: 68

Intellect: 72

Ricard was just an ordinary knight.

He has no special place anywhere, but he has the characteristic of developing a territory, so if you just put him in a castle, he can develop it on his own and boost production.

Elberstein This guy must have a lot of places to eat money after he becomes king.

envy.

“How many soldiers did you bring?”

“Two thousand. The Omer Kingdom will probably be able to gather up to 20,000 soldiers.”

20,000.

If we assume that the kingdom of Eli leaves only the minimum defense force, it can only attract about 8,000 people.

It was twice as much power.

“If we go to an all-out war, it will be a bloody battle. And as rumored, if the Kingdom of Omer is backed by the Techina tribe, it will be a very tough battle.”

“Do you think we will lose?”

“······Yes?”

“Do you think the war will be lost simply because our numbers are small? War is not a numbers game.”

The lord of Ricard stared at me with his eyes wide open.

The bravado rising up in me was looking down on him arrogantly.

“I would rather ask this. If all of those 20,000 troops are annihilated, can the kingdom of Omer continue to maintain its shape?”

“Mo, massacre?”

“I, Aslan, will take this battle seriously. That means that we won’t let a single enemy live. Then, even if we win, Omer Kingdom will lose most of its knights, so can we continue to preserve the kingship?”

Elberstein, the lord of Ricard, and his lieutenants all suddenly darkened.

“Don’t just look at the victory right in front of you, think about what will happen after that.”

“Then, how should I do this…”

I was on the verge of giving them some advice to meet Lucian and persuade him with a small smile.

“Standby division commander! It’s urgent!”

A knight hurriedly came inside and reported.

“Omer Kingdom Lucian, the commander of the Grand Order, has come with a large army and has reached the current Libre Plain!”

If it was Libre Plain, it was right in front of Ronan Castle.

Have you seen these impatient guys?

Didn’t you wait for that for a while and came in right away?

“Not only that. They even sent a letter asking to meet and negotiate on the Plain of Libre.”

Eh? to negotiate?

‘Is this dependent on luck?’

To think that the other side asked for negotiations before we even sent a letter directly.

It’s going a little differently from the original story, but meeting Lucian is important, so it was clear that it was going well.

“Looks like you have something on your mind too.”

Therefore, there was no reason to delay.

When I got up from my seat, the lord of Ricard urgently asked.

“Are you trying to meet the commander of the Lucian Grand Division?”

“exactly.”

“There may be some scheming.”

“…”

That’s right.

However, I thought it would be okay if I sent the articles in advance and thoroughly checked it.

In addition, if Lucian is not persuaded by a scheme or something, the castle of Ronan and the Kingdom of Eli will be trampled by the horseshoe and collapsed that day.

So we have to bring him to our side according to the story.

“Unless you’re an idiot, they’ll know that they can’t do anything to me with that scheming.”

I gave orders to the knights while flapping my cloak nicely.

“Everyone get ready to go out.”

* * *

‘Ha-Looking at it this way, there are a lot of dirty things.’

20,000 soldiers led by the Omer Kingdom.

Looking at its majesty, I started to regret once again that I should have returned Elberstein.

But isn’t it too late to regret it?

“I will go.”

Like Lucian, I also led all the troops to the center of the plain.

There was a tent there, and in it were Lucian and his lieutenants, plus Ferima, who had run away after meeting me the other day.

[Lucian]

Power: 91

Intellect: 70

The continent’s ninth sword master, Lucian.

He stared straight at me as I entered the tent and did not take my eyes off him.

I sat down while receiving those burdensome glances.

‘That’s why I’m the only one staring at it.’

It was such a blatant gaze that I wondered what was on my face.

‘Something is a little strange.’

According to the original story, Lucian agonizes between Rivertail and Elberstein and is at a loss as to who to serve as his master.

Then, after seeing the persuasion of the main character and the qualities of a king that Elberstein has, he finally made up his mind, and it was a standard story to go this way to the kingdom of Omer and bring Rivertail down there from the position of king.

However, the atmosphere here was a bit strange.

Lucian didn’t even look worried at all, and he didn’t even look at Elberstein.

“Why did you call us here?”

Lucian answered my question that broke the heavy silence.

“To build a bargain with you.”

“…?”

Negotiating with me?

what is this again

“Do we really need to use our brains and fight fiercely? If you are a knight, you should fight sword to sword. It’s not just fighting head-on behind the scenes.”

Lucian’s words made me feel increasingly uneasy.

“So, I will formally ask you, Aslan. Let’s have a showdown between me and the knight. If I lose, I will give up my life. But if you lose…”

He continued with a mischievous smile.

“Give me your head, Aslan.”

Hey, what kind of ghost cracking pumpkin seeds is this?

Why are you doing this to me all of a sudden?

Let’s have a knight’s showdown?

It literally meant going one-on-one.

bang-!

But then, before I could say anything, Elberstein slammed the table and stood up.

“Sounds that don’t sound like words! Why are you dragging Captain Aslan into this job?! Isn’t it me, Elberstein, that you guys want?!”

Then Lucian looked at Elberstein pathetically and snorted.

“I am not interested in you, Elberstein.”

“what?”

“What do you want from you, who resembles a weak father and is equally weak?”

for a moment.

what is this again

Why is Lucian ignoring Elberstein like that?

Obviously, according to the story, Lucian should have a high regard for Elberstein, right?

“Because your father was weak, the kingdom of Omer declined. So I just embraced my new powers to bring the kingdom back to life. It was you who made me realize that, Aslan.”

However, contrary to the story, Lucian completely looked down on Elberstein.

Besides, what did you realize through me?

“So you just shut up there and sit still. After the confrontation with Aslan, I will kill you with my sword just like your father did.”

“If it’s like your father…”

“Ah, I guess you haven’t heard yet. Who killed your father.”

Lucian showed a sinister mouth.

“I was the one who ended your father’s life.”

Then, suddenly, I felt a great speculation beside me,

“Lucian!!”

Elberstein swung his sword at Lucian and lunged at him.

Quaang-!

As the two collided, all the knights in the tent drew their swords.

Lucian, who had been pushed out of his seat by Elberstein’s sword, stood up laughing.

“Everyone put away your sword.”

Then he said as he slowly drew the knife from his waist.

“Are you challenging your master? Elberstein.”

“Shut up. You are not my master.”

“Tsk. He has no respect for his master. where to jump I will teach you.”

Chaeyoung-!!

Elberstein tried to swing his sword with all his might, but Lucian was very lightly blocking his attacks.

You know that Elberstein has grown recently, but no matter what, the opponent is Lucian.

It was not for nothing that he earned the reputation of being a sword master.

Kwa-kwak-!

“Ugh!”

Due to the overwhelming skill difference, Elberstein couldn’t touch Lucian’s hair.

Rather, he stumbled with only a wound on his side.

Lucian said sarcastic to him.

“Didn’t I tell you? you are weak like your father But I can spare you if you beg for it, Elberstein.”

“!?”

“Your father begged me for his life until the moment he died. How pitiful it was. Those eyes full of resentment are still good.”

“this guy!”

Chae Ae-Aeng-!!

Elberstein rose again like a ttogi and struck Lucian with his sword.

But this time something was different.

Elberstein’s power level continued to rise in real time, and finally,

[Elberstein]

Power: 90

Intellect: 85

90 has been achieved.

It seemed to be a phenomenon that appeared when the characteristics of growth promotion and the characteristics of anger were expressed together.

“Lucian! I will ask you for your sins.”

“…!”

Lucian must have felt something out of the ordinary, and his expression had changed.

Quaang-! Kwaaang-!!

Instead of metal colliding with iron, the sound of something exploding was heard in succession.

Lucian started to be pushed back by Elberstein’s wave attack.

The tent had already been torn apart by the clash between the two, and the Omer Kingdom and Eli Kingdom soldiers waiting outside were able to watch the fight between the two.

“You dare this kiddo!”

Lucian, who had been pushed back, turned and swung his sword, but

Chow-!

Rather, blood gushed from his left shoulder as a result of Elberstein’s counterattack.

“!?”

Lucian, who quickly distanced himself from Elberstein, looked at the blood flowing through his body in bewilderment.

“Elberstein. I felt that I had grown a little…”

“I will definitely punish you with my sword, Lucian!”

That’s right. yes! That’s right!

That’s how you cut Lucian’s throat, Elberstein!

I eagerly cheered for Elberstein in my heart.

“Heh heh. It’s funny.”

But Lucian still did not lose his composure.

He even burst out laughing in a fit of madness.

“I never thought you would push me to this extent. I can’t help it. I have no choice but to deal with it with all my might.”

And from under his feet, dark energy slowly emanated.

that’s right,

“No, Magda!”

According to a knight’s cry, that was a demon.

That something like that comes out of Lucian’s body…

‘Could it be a magic beast?’

Kwaaa-!!

As per my intuition, Lucian’s body twisted grotesquely, and the demonic air gushing out from below swallowed him.

Then, in the midst of the powerful magic that raged like a whirlwind, the sound of a growling monster was heard.

“This, this is…”

Even Elberstein was taking a step back from that menacing magi.

not long after,

“Whoa-.”

A long, heavy breath leaked out, severing the magi that was thickly covering the front.

There stood a monster that was no longer Lucian, but a beast.

[Lucian]

*Demonic language

Power: ???

Intellect: ???

Nonsense.

You’re already turning into a demon at this timing.

Magicalization means to become a monster by amplifying one’s own power with a magic stone received from the Tekina.

But the story has to go a long way to get to this stage.

because,

‘Because it’s impossible to deal with in the early stages.’

It is a stage that cannot be broken unless the player improves his specs and develops steadily, so it does not appear in the early and middle stages of the story.

But now, in the early stages, magical beasts appeared.

That too, through Lucian.

‘No matter how extreme the difficulty is, that’s the case. This is too much.’

This was an action by the developers that crossed the line.

No matter how much the old people’s play goes beyond common sense, shouldn’t we at least make it possible to break it?

It seems that this is just an attempt to trample the player with an overwhelming difference in power.

“Lucian. After all, you even sold your soul to the devil!”

Quaang-!!

Lucian didn’t care about Elberstein’s words and followed him down with the sword that had become a demonic sword.

“Keugh!”

Elberstein’s knee broke in half.

Even receiving the sword of Lucian, who had doubled in height and size through magical transformation, seemed straightforward.

“So you are weak. To reject such a tremendous power as demonic power.”

“Keuuugh-.”

“Die like this.”

Lucian swung his sword at a right angle and tried to cut off Elberstein’s body with one stroke.

This looks dangerous.

Chae Ae-Aeng!

But there was one person who managed to block his sword, and that was Aaron.

“What are you again?”

I stroked my chest.

yes. Aaron. Join forces with Elberstein to defeat that monster!

However, contrary to expectations,

Kwaaang-!!

oh my. those useless guys.

Lucian’s sword strike sent both of them flying far away and rolling on the floor.

After all, there is no choice between the two.

“Lu, Lucian Grand Commander.”

“Why me, in that form…”

Lucian’s lieutenants were shaking.

It was a natural reaction since the boss they served had become a demon.

OK,

Poo-!

Lucian shot sword steel covered in black demonic energy, splitting their bodies in half.

“Don’t buzz around like a flying insect.”

“Hee, hee!”

The surviving lieutenants backed away in terror, and Lucian burst into laughter as if he couldn’t control his overflowing power.

In the meantime, Elberstein and Aaron were getting up from a mess.

“hehehe. I will definitely end my life with this blow.”

Lucian energized the sword to kill them both at once.

‘What should I do now?’

I thought about all the different variables, but I didn’t know that magical beasts would appear.

Could it be that the Tekina tribe has already revived quickly enough to overcome the power of demonization?

I don’t know.

It just makes my head go blank.

Is this the end?

If Aaron and Elberstein die, who will stop him now…

“Stop.”

It was the time when Lucian was about to shoot the powerful magic energy contained in the sword at the two.

“Well?”

Lucian turned his head at the voice that jumped out involuntarily.

crazy. This guy’s bluff again!

“Aslan. Are you finally ready to step out?”

In the blink of an eye, Lucian came right in front of me with that big size.

It was so fast that you couldn’t even see him step forward.

“Look at this power, Aslan. With this power, there is no one that can’t defeat anyone. No need to be afraid of anyone.”

His goofy face was getting closer to me.

“So from now on, I am the strongest on the continent.”

I looked straight at the monstrous face of Lucian, completely twisted and distorted by the demonization.

The magi that flowed from his breath seemed like he was going to lose his mind.

But,

“The continent’s strongest man?”

Aslan’s bravado, which had begun to boil like an active volcano, was stronger than that terrible demon.

“Does a person who borrows the power of the devil dare to mention that location?”

“Something like demonic power? Human strength is weak. Therefore, it must contain new powers. That’s the only way to push the limits!”

My bones shook at the sound of a deafening voice.

But,

“That means you are stupid.”

Pathological bravado is not broken with just that.

“what?”

“Do you know human strength? Do you know the most divine and powerful power above all else? If you don’t know that, you must have borrowed the power of the devil.”

Lucian said with a sneering mouth.

“Then draw your sword and prove it yourself, Aslan. I will show you what my will is and what the will of the strongest man on the continent is.”

then right then

Whoa-!

Verak’s sword at his waist began to vibrate.

As if I’ve been waiting for this day

It seemed like he was saying this to me.

please pick me up right away

Let’s cut down that demon together.

But,

“It’s the will of the strongest person on the continent…”

I didn’t draw my sword.
