0.01 Second Sword Master Episode 55

‘What the hell am I looking at?’

Krael looked at Kien, who was screaming.

The explosion was so powerful that it could pierce through the armor.

As a result, pieces of the sword were embedded all over Kien’s body.

‘How can I use Kien’s sword with just my fingers!’

It was an absolutely unbelievable sight.

As you can see by looking at that greatsword, Kien was a swordsman who valued strength more than skill.

That’s why even Krael didn’t have the confidence to counter it head-on when he slammed his greatsword down with all his might.

But that Aslan-.

‘As if it were a child’s play, I cut off Kien’s sword.’

Anyone who knows the power of Kien, who has watched Kien by his side, will know how appalling the situation just now is.

“…”

It was already affecting the entire Knights.

Layer and all of his knights froze in place.

I had to run and save Kien, who was bleeding and suffering, but I couldn’t move.

I just watched Aslan slowly approaching me, trembling my body.

“As if it would break if touched, endlessly-.”

His deep voice seemed to cut through the floor.

“I am weak.”

It was a cheeky and arrogant statement.

But no one dared to refute.

How many people on this continent could say such a thing to Kien, the Grand Master of the ‘Mann’ kingdom and the sword master?

Aslan is probably the only one.

“If such a cowardly and weak fellow is the leader of the Grand Division, it would be obvious without even looking at what that level is like.”

Aslan did not hesitate to insult not only Kien, but the whole kingdom of Mann.

But this time too,

“Kuh-.”

“…”

Everyone let out a small moan, but no one stepped forward.

It was because the moment I stepped out here, I felt as if my throat would be blown away by Aslan’s sword.

“How dare the knights of such a kingdom dare to challenge me. Do you want everyone to die right here?”

just by its existence,

Just by looking down on everyone from his horse,

It was overwhelming enough to crush the entire Knights.

‘this. Even if you get caught, you’ll get caught by a monster like that.’

Krael groaned inwardly.

The knights are already scared of everyone.

In addition, Layer and Krael, who were supposed to lead them, were already weighed down by Aslan’s momentum. If we fight with them here, it will surely be annihilation.

“However-.”

Aslan’s words were not over yet.

“It is an insult to me and to our Knights to be stained with the blood of a coward like you who has no knighthood.”

He looked at Kien pitifully and then turned his head.

Then the red cloak fluttered splendidly.

“So get out of here. And remember that scar for the rest of your life and realize what a cowardly man you are.”

After saying that, Aslan left.

The Templars followed him, and the Horde snorted strongly as they left.

‘Is it really like this?’

If they had fought, it would have been a sure defeat for the ‘Mann’ kingdom.

Both Krael and Rayer should have risked their lives here.

However, Aslan threw away the opportunity to kill three sword masters.

that is,

“Are you saying that we can be killed instantly no matter when we fight?”

There is no interpretation other than that.

“He was the one who defeated Kien with just his fingers without drawing his sword. Shall we be noticed by such a person? You’d think it wouldn’t even be a warm-up.”

At Rayer’s words, Krael had no choice but to agree.

Is it like that too?

Aslan. Were we just opponents to you?

“damn.”

It was a feeling of helplessness I hadn’t felt in a long time.

It is right to pursue the author and raise the honor of the kingdom, but

“Hey, Krael! Laier!! Wow!”

When he saw Kien passed out after struggling with shrapnel all over his body, those thoughts disappeared in an instant.

“Let’s go back. I can’t let Kien die.”

“yes.”

Both Krael and Layer gritted their teeth.

One day, I will surely repay this disgrace.

But at the same time, they both felt the same way.

‘If we meet again, will we be able to win then?’

The answer was told by two trembling hands.

* * *

‘Is it okay…?’

I thought I was crazy because I was shaking.

I wanted to get out of here as soon as possible, even if I had to kick the horse hard,

Purr~.

He rode the horse so slowly, so calmly and gracefully, that the foal cried happily.

I felt a stinging stare from behind, and my heart thumped in fear that a dagger might come and pierce me, but fortunately, there was no attack until I returned to the Horde village.

‘It’s okay, it’s okay.’

It was really luck to stop Kien’s attack.

With these stupid reflexes, he blocked Kien’s greatsword well.

What would have happened if he hadn’t wielded a big sword and wielded a normal sword like the others…

‘In addition, if Krael and Layer turn a blind eye and attack-.’

The momentary strength was also on cooldown, so I had no means to counterattack or defend myself.

However, the two of them did not pull out their swords in the end despite my provocation.

‘Couldn’t it be that he’s belatedly chasing after me?’

I really thought it might be.

Those kingdom bastards are sword-mad idiots.

I have to get out of here quickly before they come after me and kill me.

By the way,

‘Why is the quest still not cleared?’

I don’t know what this guy’s quest wants from me.

“Aslan, the commander of the standby division.”

Just then, the warchief of the Horde, Maktoor, approached me.

For some reason, fear could be seen in his eyes.

Maktoor greeted me politely and said:

“Thank you for doing so much for our Horde. Thanks to you, our species has been freed from the demonic threat.”

At the same time,

[You have completed the quest.]

finally!

yes. This quest was to help the Horde.

If the warchief acknowledged that it was over, the quest would end.

‘I’m finally able to get out of this fucking forest!’

I feel like doing this right away! I wanted to scream and get out of this forest.

But-.

“It was no big deal to me. It was so trivial that even the slightest bit of boredom couldn’t appease it.”

The bravado of this guy whose snout is still alive doesn’t seem to be going away.

Even after hearing this bullshit,

“As expected… for a strong man like Aslan-sama, this level of work is nothing.”

Something seemed deeply impressed.

in which part?

“In addition to saving the Horde, you have set our rotten spirits right. I owe you such a great favor, and today that Magtoor swears here.”

Maktoor slashed the ground with his axe, shouting for all the Horde to hear.

“As of today, the Horde swears! Those who have Aslan as their enemy will become our enemies, and those who have him as their friend will become our friends!!”

“Boo-!!”

As if in response, the Horde slammed the ground with their respective weapons.

Accordingly, the knights cheered together.

It was the moment when two seemingly unlikely races became one.

‘This······.’

In the crucible of enthusiasm.

I knew this scene.

‘The cutscenes I see when I play the game as the main character.’

I looked sideways at Alexander, who was next to me.

He was beating his chest with the knights with a face full of excitement.

I don’t know if I can see this scene because Alexander is by my side, or if I can see it because I clear it with a route I don’t know.

“I, Aslan, declare here.”

His bravado could not go unnoticed in this embarrassing situation.

“I, Aslan, will remember you from now on.”

I told them, feeling the bluff filling up in my heart.

“I will remember the bravery you showed, the soul of that warrior.”

“…”

The Hordes, who had been shouting until just now, all looked at me in silence.

I shouted, absorbed in their attention and gaze.

“The Kingdom of Eli and the Horde will continue their friendship forever. Whenever you are in danger, always seek me, Aslan. I will run for you.”

no. please don’t look for it

“If the kingdom of Eli needs you, run for us too.”

And come and watch over me.

“Since this is a relationship of true brothers helping each other, I will remember you as my brothers and not as other races!”

So fight for me for the rest of your life.

“Boo-!!”

“Oohhhhh-!!”

The hot shouts of the Horde lasted for a while, enough to leave the Jastra Forest.

“So you’re going to use this for training?”

“yes.”

“Well, are you really going to use this for training? really?”

I narrowed my brows at Raphael’s words.

“Don’t make me say the same thing.”

“no. No matter how you think about it, it’s strange.”

After returning to the kingdom, I ordered Raphael and the wizards to make something for me.

It was a powder made by grinding something called moss wood and then mixing various ingredients.

“It doesn’t smell much now, but when you burn it, it smells very strong.”

“Know.”

“But why this…”

“It’s to increase resistance to Magi.”

“!?”

This is Magi Powder.

In the middle and late stages of the story, the Tekina tribe comes into play, but Magi is what makes the Knights suffer the most.

If you are addicted to magi, your mind can’t be controlled and your body is in pain. To adapt to that, you use this magi powder for training purposes.

If you burn it, smoke will come out, and while there is no harm to the body, it is made with an effect similar to that of magic.

After playing the game, it was also an essential training for the Knights.

‘Although I have a bit of a sense of speed.’

Seeing the story going on now, it didn’t seem strange if the great demons appeared and destroyed the continent.

That’s why the Knights had to adapt to the Magi even now.

Well, should I say something like CBRN training?

“Give this powder to the knights. Just teach me how to train.”

“Ah yes.”

After I left it to Raphael, I got up from my seat while I was doing my business.

This was because the knights would have finished their training once by now.

I went to the training center to make sure I was doing well.

“Wow!”

“aaa!”

“Nu, your eyes are so hot!”

“Sue, I can’t breathe!”

training camp,

“…”

It was a mess.

This is the scene I used to see when I went to the old training center.

The training at that time, which still remains vaguely, is the NBC.

It’s a memory… a very fucking memory.

I approached the knights who were screaming in agony.

“Wait, the lieutenant commander?”

I see them pouring out all their tears and runny nose with their faces turning red,

“My knights are just-.”

I couldn’t stand the rising bravado and looked at him with contempt.

“Can’t stand this one.”

“Ha, but it’s too painful.”

“How the hell can I survive this…”

From the lowest-ranking knight to the leader, he expressed disapproval.

“I must have heard the purpose of this training from Raphael. The reason I burn this powder to keep you going is to gain resistance from demonic energy.”

I scolded them even more.

“It is a very weak robber, only a handful. I didn’t increase the intensity from the beginning out of consideration for you guys. Originally, half of the powder in this box had to be burned to become similar. But are you saying that you’re just so discouraged? It’s pitiful.”

“…”

Aaron and Alexander were also there.

“How were you two?”

Aaron blinked his red eyes and said.

“I-I could have endured this much… Puhetch! Cow, sorry… oops-!”

Aaron was like that, but the others didn’t even need to see it.

At least Alexander is the one holding out.

is also the main character

“Because I can’t stand any of this…”

Even though I said that, I know it too.

That this training is hard for them.

But it is also a training that must be endured.

There is no choice but to increase the magic resistance.

And you should know that Magi is far more powerful than this.

One day, when they experience Magi for themselves, they will realize it.

“How can you say that you are my knight?”

Of course, I have no intention of doing this training at all.

It was because he had no intention of entering or approaching the place where Magi was.

If even a little bit of the smoke coming out of that powder reached me, I was confident that I would cry, blow, and jump.

By the way,

“Are you really saying that Magi is like this?”

“no. Many times stronger than this. If you gradually increase the training intensity, you should be able to have some resistance. If you can’t endure this much, you will die at the hands of the devil.”

“Well, in that case, can you withstand that evil magic, Commander of the Grand Division?”

Of course, Aaron’s words set fire to my bluff.

“Do you think I’ll succumb to Magi or something?”

The eyes of the knights who had just experienced a part of magic with this powder were shaking.

“How much more do you think I’m going to collapse on this powder?”

That stimulated my bravado even more, and I finally-.

“Then I will show you. How this Aslan holds up to demons.”

He threw a box full of Magi Powder on fire.
