0.01 Second Sword Master Episode 99

There were a total of three great wizards in Shana Kingdom.

Natasha, Zahart, and Kartiel.

However, it is Natasha who actually leads them and this kingdom.

Her outstanding magical abilities were recognized even on the continent, and it was said that Natasha’s magical abilities rivaled that of the legendary Elf Queen, Eltihi.

“Natasha seems to care about Aslan too much.”

“It’s also a problem to view his ability too highly.”

“But isn’t it true that there are good reasons for that?”

They were Zahat and Cartiel, who were talking with other mages inside the palace.

“After this banquet, everything is noisy about Aslan.”

“I can see people already trying to contact him.”

That was the problem.

Of course, it was the kingdom of Shana that should receive attention at this magic festival.

I hoped that everyone would bow their heads in front of Shana Kingdom and Natasha, immersed in this mysterious and beautiful magic.

However, Aslan took all the attention.

The only thing that came out of the mouths of those high-ranking people, always overflowing with gossip, was the name Aslan.

“If this happens, our plan to increase Shana Kingdom’s influence externally will be disrupted.”

Currently, demons are appearing all over the continent and causing headaches.

The power of magic is stronger than any other kingdom, but the power of foot soldiers who have to fight in hand-to-hand combat is very weak, so the help of other kingdoms was desperate.

So, it was their plan to exchange help with other kingdoms.

That’s why I tried to open a magic festival to show fantastic magic to them and make them spontaneously reach out…

“Could this be Aslan’s plan?”

“what?”

“Wasn’t Natasha-sama like that? He’s a very smart guy. He deliberately appeared at the banquet at the very end to attract people’s attention and imprinted on their heads with a fiery rivalry with Karman. It means that Aslan himself will never be pushed back by Karman.”

From the moment he entered the Kingdom of Shana, his behavior was unconventional.

In a conflict that could only be seen as intentional, Aslan clearly split the sides.

Karman and Aslan can’t be friends forever.

If so, the other kingdoms must be calculating which of the two to benefit from.

In the process, Aslan showed off a splendid performance at the banquet hall as if to show off his superiority.

“You said it was all to keep our Shana kingdom in check?”

“It is quite likely. The magic festival is actually a festival to elevate our kingdom. It was Aslan who ruined it and turned all attention to himself.”

Zahat and Kartiel, who had been quietly listening to their subordinates, got goose bumps all over their bodies.

Was Aslan such a meticulous human being?

“I’m sorry for hurting your pride, but try secretly contacting other kingdoms. Only with help from them can the perimeter defense be made easier.”

“All right.”

It was time to decide and leave the palace.

“…?”

Zahart, who was walking ahead, stopped and looked back.

“Why is that?”

“Something just…”

Cartiel looked at the same place as if he felt the same thing.

Their gaze was directed to where Natasha was.

“Zahart. Did you feel the same way as me?”

“yes. I felt that evil yet familiar energy.”

“Then, could it be Natasha-sama…?”

“It is certain that something happened. Let’s go soon.”

They moved quickly and ran to the place where they felt a suspicious energy.

“This······?”

The place they arrived at is Natasha’s bed in the palace.

There, the energy of condensed magical power was strongly felt.

The knights who were already guarding the area had lost their minds and collapsed.

“Miss Natasha!”

Convinced that something must have happened, Zahart tried to go inside first.

But before he even sets foot,

Kwaaa-!!

A huge crimson magic power began to rise above the bed.

“!?”

“What, what is it? That!”

The condensed magic rose high as if it had exploded, and crimson magic poured down like rain.

“Ugh!”

“Ugh!”

The wizards exposed to magic fell to the floor one by one, unable to even resist properly. Their eyes widened and their mouths spat out nonsense.

“Natasha-sama… hehehehe…”

“I am your… It’s a slave. hehehehe.”

Zahart and Kartiel released their magic to control this unusual magic.

“This, this must be Natasha-sama’s magic.”

“yes. It’s enchanting magic. But how powerful is it?”

They struggled not to be enchanted like their subordinates.

But soon, the magic they released also turned red and penetrated their minds.

“Oh, no.”

“Aww!”

Zahart and Cartiel, who were screaming and struggling on the floor, began to let out silly voices as their eyes widened just like the subordinates.

* * *

“I just wasted my time.”

I wanted to try using the fire rune, but I couldn’t because of Natasha’s sudden visit.

Even now, where should I find a wide open space?

It was already too late for that.

“Standby division commander! Aslan!!”

At that moment, Hariel’s raucous voice was heard.

what. Could it be that Natasha is playing pranks again?

But she was the Hariel I knew.

“Are you okay?”

“yes.”

“phew. thank god.”

“Looks like Natasha let you go.”

“Oh, did you know?”

“I have warned you not to do something like this again.”

Hariel let out a sigh of relief and then looked at me hesitantly.

“What is going on?”

“Maybe I… Was there anything else…”

“Something else?”

“Yes. The fact that Natasha did something strange to the Grand Division Commander with her body…”

“Anything strange?”

I suddenly had a playfulness.

“If it’s weird, what exactly?”

“That, that, that, isn’t it? between a man and a woman…”

“I can’t hear you at all. Be precise.”

“Ah! You know everything!”

I immediately burst into laughter.

“I don’t know exactly what you’re concerned about, but nothing happened. why? What did you want to happen?”

Then Hariel blushed and shouted.

“Oh, that can’t be! Gwa, I’ve confirmed that you’re okay, so I’m going to leave!”

Then, with a stiff look, he hurriedly left.

Anyway, he’s a guy who has a taste for teasing.

Then all of a sudden I saw my reflection in the mirror.

“…”

It seemed like the first time I had ever seen him smile so wide while wearing Aslan’s body. I know that because it is in front of others, the pathological bravado is automatically activated and never shows emotional expression on the face.

Why are you smiling so easily in front of Hariel?

‘Could this be another characteristic of Aslan that I don’t know about?’

Does that only apply to Hariel?

no This is not to be dismissed as a characteristic…

“What if it was Aslan’s real heart?”

So, does that mean I can’t help but like Hariel?

The moment when such a series of thoughts pass by.

“Ah, Mr. Aslan!”

Hariel’s voice came from outside again.

It was a voice that sounded very urgent.

She kept screaming to get me out.

“Gee, only now!”

What’s going on?

If Hariel was so flustered, something must have happened.

just as expected.

“…?”

Even though it was a dark night, the outside was all red, and everyone was distracted by the red raindrops falling from the sky.

“Ugh-!”

Hariel resisted to the end, but in the end, he was engulfed by the red magic from the raindrops, and even his eyes turned red and he slowly walked somewhere.

Not only her, but everyone in the palace, showing similar symptoms, could be seen walking towards the source of this red magic.

“crazy.”

I quickly closed the dorm door.

I know very well what this is.

This is Natasha’s red magic runaway.

It is one of the events that appear in the story, usually this event occurs in the middle or late part of the story.

In addition, because there is a premonition phenomenon, I was able to roughly guess the timing of the magical runaway, but this happened suddenly without any premonition.

“I know that even Karman can’t stand Natasha’s enchanting magic.”

It is known that even Karman, who has an outstanding mental power of indomitability, cannot mentally overcome Natasha’s runaway mana.

Only a magician on the level of Eltihi or the main character, Alexander, could solve this magic.

“I-I’ll have to think about it once I get out of here…”

I’m fine with the roof still protecting me, but that roof will soon be breached as well. Before that, we have to get out of here somehow.

Shouldn’t we live and see?

But think about that for a moment.

Squeeze-.

As soon as I heard the sound of the curtains opening, the scenery in the room I was in changed.

I saw all red, crazy people gathering, slithering like zombies.

And a ghastly voice is heard.

“Aslan.”

Looking back, Natasha was there.

Floating in the air with her red wings spread wide, she smiled with a fatal beauty.

“This is all what you caused.”

“…”

“Didn’t I tell you? I’m not giving up.”

such a crazy year

This is why I didn’t want to see this year as much as possible.

“Big-”

someone’s sore throat.

It was none other than Karman.

However, all he had to do was stand there trembling with his sword supported.

After that, I saw Alexander walking out with blank eyes.

yes! The protagonist of our game!

Quickly use your abilities to release this magic.

But even Alexander seemed to have gone a long way.

“Uh heh. I am Natasha.”

Hey useless bastard.

And the next thing I saw was Aaron.

“Ugh-!”

Aaron, like Karman, seemed to be trying to endure the fascination until the end.

Finally, he took out the canteen from his waist.

“Ah, wash away the unclean energy with this divine power given by Aslan!”

Then, after swallowing the holy water in the canteen, I sprayed the rest on myself.

“…”

That guy wasn’t a concept, he really believed that the holy water was all-powerful.

If that kind of thing worked, I would have sprayed it a long time ago.

But a strange thing happened.

“Puha-!”

Wouldn’t Aaron, covered with holy water, be freed from the red magic?

“As expected, Aslan-sama’s divine power is great!”

Aaron shouted in a loud voice as if testifying to its power.

Perhaps it was annoying, Natasha lightly snapped her fingers and a tidal wave of red magic hit Aaron.

“Kwuck!”

Natasha told me.

“Now you, along with everyone here, become my slaves, Aslan. So surrender to me.”

The problem was that the tidal wave of red magic hit me too.

It hit me and I felt that my mind was collapsing.

“It will be very different from before. Even you can’t stand it this time?”

That’s what it says.

Natasha’s magical power was shattering my mind and turning it into powder.

As the endless longing and desire grew, I began to become her slave like them.

But,

“It’s ridiculous.”

The remaining bravado at the tip wriggled, blocking the rushing red waves.

“Did you think Aslan would fall for such an odd temptation?”

Natasha frowned and fired another red tidal wave at me.

Nevertheless, as if burning the last flame, I fully bluffed.

“This doesn’t work for me. Natasha.”

Then, Natasha’s face contorted wickedly, and the black shadows that shook behind it also jumped out like cactuses.

“yes. Are you saying you’re not coming through? then······.”

Natasha soon created red spears behind her.

“I’d rather kill you. If I can’t have you, then no one else can have you.”

That, that crazy bitch is definitely…!

How much can I really stop?

I’m holding on with my bluff now, but if a physical attack comes in, how will I be able to withstand it then?

Even if I wanted to launch an attack first, I could barely stand still, so there was nothing I could do.

‘for a moment. Obviously Aaron is-.’

At that time, he thought of Aaron, who had washed away the red magic that had covered him with holy water.

Does that mean that the sex attribute ability within me can resist Natasha’s power?

“Die, Aslan! Even in death, stay by my side.”

Hundreds of Natasha’s spears began to fall on my head.

If my castle attribute ability really works against that crimson magic—

[Fire Rune]

I made my last gamble there.

* * *

“Big-”

It seemed as if all the nerves in my body were cut off and I would lose the mental cords I was barely holding on to.

no. If you just leave it like this, everything will be comfortable.

So Karman was slowly falling into the irresistible temptation.

‘······Aslan?’

He could see Aslan standing proudly in front of Natasha.

‘You······. How can I be fine?’

This mad burning thirst.

The desire to boil the body.

All of this is the red magic created by Natasha.

However, Aslan stood upright as always.

Does this magic of seduction really have no effect on the author?

How?

“die!”

Natasha, realizing this, must have grown tired of it and tried to kill Aslan.

right at that moment.

Whoaaah-!!

The immense divine light that emanated from Aslan’s body spread like flames.

The flames covered people everywhere, and finally reached Karman.

“!?”

But it was different from normal fire.

Even if it clung to the body, this fire did not burn anyone.

Rather, it burned away all the red magic attached to that person, allowing him to escape from this burning desire.

“This is…”

As a result, the others, like Karman, were freed from the red magic and came to their senses one by one.

And saw.

Aslan, whose body is also shining brightly while creating this huge and sacred storm of fire.

“…Lahal?”

The words came out of Karman’s mouth.

I’ve never seen Rahal in person, but if I did, wouldn’t it be like that?

“Kyaaah,”

The sacred fire finally burned Natasha in front of it, and the red magic power radiating from her body was fading away.

dump-!

In the end, Natasha, who lost her red wings and even her beautiful figure, collapsed on the floor.

And Aslan,

Sreureung-!

He drew the sword from his waist and slowly walked towards Natasha.

“Oh, Aslan.”

Natasha called his name with all her might.

But, not answering the call, Aslan raised the point of his sword and approached her at an increasing speed.

Sensing death, Natasha cried out as if pleading.

“Aslan. wait a minute no!”

And,

Pooh-!

Aslan’s sword pierced the opponent’s body without hesitation.
