35 – Kwon Seong, Rasputin – 3 (illustrated)

Countless stars roam the sky.

The little stars rushing across the sky are soon beginning to disperse beyond the horizon.

Only the gracefully cold moonlight illuminated the earth.

Among the seven stars that decorated the sky, the star that formed the shape of a large bear, the star that sat on the second hill slowly turns towards Woonggeomgwi.

Saaa.

The warm and elegant starlight slowly seeps into Unggeomgwi’s body.

Like a puppy looking for its owner, the star naturally settled into Woonggeomgwi’s body as if it were its natural order.

Sabak, Sabak.

“It’s fascinating.”

Harvey raises his sword and slowly walks towards Unggeomgwi.

A bizarre and alien space.

The feel of your feet is clearly that of sand, but how can what you see be just an ordinary villa?

It was clear that the place I was standing wasn’t sand, but only the sound of stepping on sand filled my ears.

The coast, a place where the stars dance and the moon shines warmly on the earth.

At that place, Woonggeomgwi and Harvey raised their swords and aimed their force at each other.

“This is my first time seeing a sight like this. To be honest, I’d say it’s majestic.”

“It’s natural because it’s my image.”

The previous life of the Great Sword Demon, not the life of a monster who was devoured by numerous swords and lost his original self.

It was flashy, beautiful, and respected by everyone.

The life of a famous swordsman who sat on the second of the seven hills of the prestigious Big Dipper.

It was melted into the space of the image world where Harvey was standing.

“You lived a beautiful and splendid life, Unggeomgwi.”

“The last years were dirty and ugly.”

“I have lived dirty and ugly my whole life.”

“Really…I’m trying not to say a word…”

Unggeomgwi must have been speechless, so he grunted at Harvey’s words and adjusted his sword.

“Now that the pledge is over, let’s get started.”

“It’s not fun.”

Harvey adjusts his sword in response to Unggeomgwi’s words.

The tips of the two people’s swords began to reflect each other’s images.

The meaning of Ungeomgwi’s actions just moments ago.

A kind of oath made to the sky as a swordsman carrying the karma of the stars.

To gain one honor without a single loss, without a single ugliness.

Woonggeomgwi slowly overwrites the memories of that time on his body.

Wooooow.

Not the sword of the nameless bandit king, but her beloved sword made by melting the tears of stars, it also began to cry in response to its owner’s fighting spirit.

“It’s been a while…Cheong.”

The great swordsman slowly sweeps his sword with his slender fingers, as if a child were touching it.

Like a child reminiscing about those times, he smiled brightly and reunited with memories from the past.

“Let’s fight together again, like we did back then.”

The beloved sword of the Great Sword Demon emits bright light as if responding to its owner’s call.

The light mixed with starlight was splendidly recreated in the world.

Harvey frowned at the light entering his vision.

“Are you ready?”

” of course. “

“Then let’s go into the main room now.”

The two looked at each other for a while, looking for each other’s space, and soon Harvey began to move his body first.

Because all of the power of the evil sword demon that was covered with it was gone, Harvey’s power became the same as the original.

The momentum was not much different from before.

Rather, he was able to draw out a little more of his natural strength without being swayed by power.

Although he had absolutely no talent for swords and magic, the heterogeneous power that came from his momentum did not change much.

As a villain, a character who was strangely obsessed with completing the story rushed at the swordsman who was carrying a stellar karma.

Jjaeng!

“Your strength is weak, your posture is poor, and your swordsmanship that can cover everything is not special. Your spirit is useful.”

However, the current Unggeomgwi is not a monster, but a star swordsman who made his name widely known in the central plains.

He is not a monster who swings his sword only with his strength, but a warrior who completely fools his opponent with restrained swordsmanship.

Unggeomgwi so easily removed Harvey’s sword and plunged the sword into Harvey’s stomach.

“However, the technique is too lacking.”

Phew!

“…Damn.”

The sword of the great sword pierced Harvey’s intestines.

Cough.

A liquid mixed with serous fluid and blood begins to flow out of the hole.

Blood flowed backwards through Harvey’s throat.

“Are you going to give up?”

” …No way. “

Unggeomgwi tilted his head and asked Harvey if he wanted to give up.

However, Harvey frowned and slowly began to pull out the Great Sword Demon’s sword with his right hand.

The pain was starting to burn the nerve cells in my brain, but so was the adrenaline that came with it.

That didn’t make all the pain go away, but Harvey pushed it away with superhuman endurance.

” …If you’re going to give up here, you didn’t even start from the beginning.”

Slurp slurp.

Due to the pain assaulting my brain, the blood vessels in my eyes burst and blood began to flow from my eyes.

However, even facing the shadow of death, Harvey was not afraid at all.

And only then did Harvey understand what the three-legged crow had said.

That word imitates the fear of death.

The fact that somewhere inside your heart is severely distorted.

It was only then that Harvey recognized and realized.

However, even though I realized it, my brain went down a twisted path of subsequent cognition.

The idea that it is not a solution to a problem, but rather a good one.

Harvey was filled with the mistaken idea that his twisted notions could be helpful in completing the story.

A madman who focuses only on completing the story.

No matter who massaged the brain or brainwashed it.

Harvey was now quite satisfied with his concepts and thoughts.

Sigh.

The great sword of the Great Sword completely escapes from Harvey’s body.

The strong scent of blood fills the surroundings from the sword of Unggeomgwi, which is covered in internal organs and blood.

“Raise your sword again, Unggeomgwi.”

“It is said that what happens in the world of images does not affect the real world, but the wounds that will be engraved in the soul are passed on as is.”

” doesn’t care. “

“It’s not a good idea to beat yourself up.”

“Didn’t I tell you? If I couldn’t endure it, I wouldn’t have started.”

“….”

A ghost that closes its mouth at Harvey’s words.

Instead, the giant sword gazed into Harvey’s bright yellow eyes.

Many emotions were mixed in Harvey’s eyes, but the most clearly visible emotion was anger.

To become stronger, you burn your anger and move your body.

This was the method that Harvey pursued toward those around him, and it was also a method of whipping himself.

Soon, the tightly closed mouth of the giant sword slowly began to open, and a faint voice flowed into Harvey’s ears.

From noble mtl dot com

“You are out of your mind.”

” I know. “

“What on earth do you hope to gain by whipping yourself…”

The cries of Ungeomgwi are heard.

There were more than one or two things I had been curious about about my master.

I wanted to ask a question, but I couldn’t bring myself to speak.

But it’s different now.

As the swords clashed, a strange atmosphere was created.

If you ask a question now, maybe that idiot owner will give you an answer.

“For the completion of the story.”

“…”

The answer from my master was profound and shocking.

story? What on earth are you talking about?

With his mind filled with confusion, Ungeomgwi picked up his sword again.

I heard the answer, but I didn’t get a proper answer.

What on earth is the story?

Are we just dismissing everything in the world as stories in used books?

I became curious about my master’s sincerity.

“Cough… Come at me again, Unggeomgwi. This time, I’ll make sure to hit him hard.”

Harvey taunts the devil by twitching his fingers.

” …crazy person. “

Now, beyond curiosity and wonder, I am at the point of fear and awe.

Who on earth made that man like that?

What on earth is the driving force that moves that man?

Huh!

Unggeomgwi swung his sword widely.

Starlight oscillates majestically along the sword’s trajectory.

The sword energy of the star, as if firing a beam of light, pours down on Harvey.

A strike from a swordsman who has reached the pinnacle of star recognition.

However, Harvey instead rushed towards Unggeomgwi.

For Harvey, who had lost his fear of death, Unggeomgwi’s attack was a good time to counter.

Squeak!

Harvey’s left arm is cut off by the Unggeomgwi’s attack.

Phew!

Blood pours out from between the cut sections.

But even so, Harvey didn’t stop.

Cheolpudeok.

My left arm, growing cold, falls onto the sand.

At the same time, Unggeomgwi’s eyes also begin to widen.

This was because he could see his owner running toward him, bleeding even though his left arm was cut off.

Harvey’s right hand rises significantly.

Although his talents as a swordsman and wizard were virtually zero.

Harvey’s sword began to resonate, albeit slightly, according to Harvey’s will.

Although it was a weak response, Harvey succeeded in bringing out the sword’s will.

Woonggeomgwi’s eyes grow even bigger.

Donggui-jin, there were many murderers who risked their lives to kill us.

There was no crazy person like Harvey who cut off his left arm and charged away from the beginning.

An instinct from life that any living thing must have.

This was possible because Harvey was lacking.

“This is the first and last attack.”

” crazy person! “

He quickly retrieved the sword and tried to block Harvey’s attack, but Harvey’s sword was already within a stone’s throw of the Unggeomgwi’s neck.

at that time.

Kang!

The beloved sword of the Great Sword Demon was swung far away by its master.

He returned on his own and blocked Harvey’s blow.

“…What is that?”

“…this…so.”

The silence spreads all over.

Unggeomgwi looked at his beloved sword with some resentment, and then suddenly blurted out a word.

“I lost.”

“You lost?”

“Yes, I lost cleanly.”

” why. “

“Can’t you tell when you see it? That blow just now. I couldn’t react in that moment.”

” is it. “

“In the first place, it was to see your determination and spirit, not your skills.”

Rather than the fact that he lost because he was careless, it was the fact that he fought the battle he had purely requested, not with his own hands, but with the power of his beloved sword.

Ungeomgwi was so embarrassed.

“No, it’s not over yet.”

” …yes? “

“I want to be taught swordsmanship.”

“…”

Unggeomgwi frowned, as if he was dumbfounded, and looked at Harvey intently.

“Is there anything you want to say?”

“You are very greedy.”

“Because it is a cautionary belief that having more is better.”

“I’m not qualified yet.”

“…What does that mean?”

“It means that your karma and strength are still lacking. So.”

sudden!

Unggeomgwi pushed his master, Harvey, backwards with both hands.

Due to the sudden feeling of floating, Harvey made a dumb sound.

And the light purple door that appears behind Harvey.

It was a door leading directly to the outside of the world of images, that is, to the present world.

” …uh? “

“Go ahead and do your business. I feel like I’m going to die from the stinging gaze from the crow.”

“What is that?”

“Goodbye, master. See you later, we’ll see you later.”

Oh! I passed the test. Finally, with the words:

thud.

The door was closed tightly.
