Episode 43

Caang! Papabak!

‘As expected, it’s inconvenient.’

I knew long ago that a hunched back would get in the way.

After colliding with Walter, I was pushed back ten steps.

It was because the strength of the sword was not properly loaded.

Now that you’ve gotten out of Railton, you can stop being the hunchback.

Duduk. Dudeuk!

When I released part of the seven-fold technique, my back straightened with a terrifying sound.

Of course, the ugly features remained the same.

Currently, I’m taking a break from the Marquis of Pennant, so I couldn’t show my face.

“Huh? Was the hunchback camouflage? Interesting feat.”

My original body shape was not so dwarfed.

Walter looked at me with curious eyes as I had almost doubled in size.

But he kept glancing up the northern trail.

Apparently, he was worried about the two people who had run away.

‘Where?’

Swoop. Ssuk!

Taking advantage of Walter’s distraction, I unexpectedly poured sword strikes.

Dan Chun Il Island aimed for the guy’s neck and shot it all the way.

“Suck!”

Walter, who did not know that the attack would be so stealthy, raised his sword in amazement.

Cagan!

The guy’s response was very quick.

In addition, the swordsmanship was surprisingly neat and systematic.

There is a perception that Nangin only learned swordsmanship, but Nangya was different.

‘It’s funny to discuss the basics with a 3rd tier player.’

I laughed inwardly and engaged Walter with swords in earnest.

The more time I drag, the more room there will be for Fernand and Rovik.

I didn’t expect to meet Manguhoeju out of nowhere, but it turned out to be a good thing.

It’s because the eyes are bound to be focused in this direction.

If you deal with them moderately and get them out well, the operation was a great success.

It becomes a bait, just like when Wendy escaped from Troven.

Of course, it was unclear whether he would be able to shake off Walter.

“Ha ha ha! It’s your thing? You like this?”

Manguhoeju forgot that he had to chase Fernand and Rovik and immersed himself in the battle.

It’s a good thing for me as a decoy, but the problem was that this warmonger’s overindulgence was too much.

“Where do you get this too! Hriyap!”

Wedge love! Kwakwang!

As the metal collided with each other, there was a roar as if some kind of magic had exploded.

Balter’s red aura, which rose about 2 meters from the sword, contained powerful fire properties.

It felt similar to Fernand’s aura mixed with flame mana and earning the nickname of the Fever Sword.

Perhaps the essence of the aura practice method was the type that attracts fire attributes well.

‘Five! look at this guy He’s very cunning.’

At first glance, it could be seen as a swordsmanship that relied on an aura that seemed to explode.

However, I quickly realized what Walter was aiming for.

If he tried to break that hectic swordsmanship with his technique, he would be helplessly defeated.

It was because the swordsmanship he used did not focus only on strength and power.

In this case, the correct answer was to hit with stronger force.

Whoops!

The black dragon sword, imbued with an ashen aura, vibrated and struck a strange sword.

After completing Mahon, I no longer needed to hide my power.

It was because the color of Riverrun was no longer visible in my swordsmanship.

Swoop.

As the Dancheon Demon Moon unfolded, Balter’s sword strike, which had been splendidly exploding, was momentarily atrophied.

It seemed that he had noticed the splendor that resided in the secret sword grass that had no presence.

He took out his hidden claw and tried to twist Dancheon Mawol’s sword path.

Sping-!

Walter’s sword, which was slashed in a straight line, skillfully intervened and emitted a crimson light.

It was a qualitatively different sword attack from the orange aura that exploded.

Whoa!

Even though it was only a light contact, the reaction force was enormous.

Enough that each other had to take a few steps back.

‘He’s not an easy guy either. I can’t see this in a short period of time, right?’

By now, Fernand and Rovik should have had enough of it.

Continuing the confrontation with interest was virtually meaningless.

Now, it is urgent for me to get out of the Marquis of Railton.

But the problem was that this madman had no intention of letting me go.

“hehehehe.”

As if his body was heating up, Walter raised his sword again with a sinister laugh.

He seemed to enjoy the tingling feeling in his hands again.

It was definitely a look that could be nicknamed a fighting spirit.

‘I have no choice but to deal with it somehow.’

After deploying Dancheon One Island and maximizing my gray aura, I glared at him with a serious expression.

Koo-goo-goo-goo!

Then, the air waves pouring out of Mahon began to crush the surrounding objects.

Soft things like grass were almost crushed to powder, and rocks and pebbles were cut into pieces and hammered into the ground.

Perhaps feeling that enormous power, Walter’s face was uncharacteristically tense.

Still, seeing her eyes wide open, she seemed to really enjoy the situation.

The moment when the atmosphere rises and reaches its climax.

“Chahahaha!”

I cheered loudly and took a stance of both sides.

The aura that stretched to several meters was raised high into the sky, and then it was about to strike it down.

It was truly a lightning-like movement.

Shuhua!

Balter emitted a red aura and tried to retaliate against my sword strike.

But just as he was about to clash, a fainting sound was heard and his posture suddenly collapsed.

container!

“to?”

The guy stared at his sword soaring into the air with a puzzled expression.

There was no power in the gray aura that seemed to be something tremendous.

It was just an Auror that had grown enormously in size.

So I had no choice but to be cut to pieces by Walter’s sword.

“Keugh!”

The guy drew a large circle and naturally controlled his sword strikes.

In the meantime, the presence that was fluttering in front of my eyes completely disappeared.

It was because I was taking advantage of Walter’s strength and quickly pulling myself out and running away.

In order to deceive people, you have to play a kura with a soul.

The guy was properly fooled by the acting he put his whole body into.

I left my last words to the guy who looked at me with ridiculous eyes and disappeared.

“It’s fake. You idiot!”

* * *

After returning to Railton, I stayed there for a while and quietly observed the dynamics.

Because he changed his face and used a disguised identity with the Chiljeolyongjutsu, he was able to operate without being suspected.

After several days of observation, fortunately the two did not appear to have been caught.

The next day, after entering Railton, Walter had to leave the estate empty-handed.

‘If only I keep my mouth shut, there won’t be much damage to that guy.’

In hindsight, this was attributable to Railton’s side.

Even before he arrived, the survivors of Riverrun had already escaped.

You can go back to Nanya and report that the Railtons missed it.

After confirming that, I went straight back to the Marquess of Pennant and met the nanny.

Abigail was doing her job as a dummy.

Surprisingly, he went in and out of the safe house and left traces.

“Wow! You’re bold. You don’t have to go if you don’t have to.”

“Because that’s more certain. It’s because I’ve been watching the young master for a long time. I understand everything, right?”

“What am I, what do I do?”

“Isn’t it obvious? He must have spilled it all over the place saying he was going to do a love business. With that smooth face.”

“Ah, I’ve never worked with the original version. I modified it little by little, so everyone doesn’t know my real face.”

“Yes, yes, you’re fine. Did things work out anyway?”

“I’m asking you very early.”

I outlined the situation to Abigail.

It was said that he had saved the survivors of Riverrun, but had failed to secure new recruits.

“They’ve gone in the direction of the Beldum National Alliance, but they won’t stay long.”

“That’s right. It’s Nanya who’s targeting them. Would you like to work in the enemy’s den?”

“No matter how dark the bottom of the lamp is, it’s not there.”

The information power of the ronin was comparable to that of most information guilds.

Although, of course, it is limited to the Beldom National Union.

In any case, staying there for a long time would not be of much benefit.

“Maybe he went somewhere else. He’ll be holding his breath for a while, so leave it alone.”

“Yes, I’ll have to dig the other side.”

“Let’s dig in the Railhash side this time.”

“Looks like you got something?”

“I don’t know the exact location, but there are survivors in a place called the sword’s grave. We’ll have to move more carefully this time.”

“Because Felton is close by?”

“I know it well. Go carefully.”

With a light wave, the nurse ran across the square, fluttering the hem of her peach-colored dress.

It was similar to the one worn by the aristocratic lady who passed by on the carriage last time.

Perhaps it was then that I caught my eyes rolling.

‘Ah, I don’t have to cater to my taste.’

Suddenly, Abigail, who had been walking away, turned around quickly and smiled.

“I didn’t make it to suit your taste, Bocchan!”

no, hey nurse?

What kind of mind reading did you learn?

Don’t just read my mind!

Eventually, I got out of the movie plaza and stopped by the eastern branch for the first time in a while.

With a sullen look on his face, like someone who had been playing for a full six weeks of rest.

“Ah, it’s been a while. Mr. Crow.”

“……nice to meet you.”

“Why is your face like that after a good rest?”

“Have a good time and come back to work. Of course, this has no choice but to be like this.”

“Ahahahaha, that’s right.”

The agent guarding the entrance laughed awkwardly as he saw me dead.

Have you seen a guy who happily returns from vacation?

that this is a natural reaction

“Uhh…”

The face of Dusk, who had been enjoying himself at the resort, was the same as mine.

But why did this human go so far?

It’s a resort that the Marquis of Pennant kills.

“Huh? Are you here?”

“Did you have a good vacation?”

“I just enjoyed myself properly. You said you had a long break this time too?”

“Yes, what.”

“That’s why he groaned like a cow brought to a slaughterhouse.”

No, look in the mirror and tell me.

You also don’t want to return, so you’re crying, you’re dying!

I couldn’t give my superiors heavy factual violence, so I held back what I wanted to say.

But, isn’t Dusk holding me when I’m trying to go to the order classification room?

“I’m on the express now.”

“Know.”

“But why are you like this?”

“Because I can’t help it. Don’t talk nonsense and just follow me.”

I had no choice but to go into the office because I couldn’t overcome the branch manager’s insistence.

Even if it’s dirty, I’m going to put on a transcendental level quickly.

Took.

Dusk placed the thick orders on the desk and smiled meaningfully.

Ah, every time like this, I was very anxious about something.

“You enter.”

What kind of dog bone is this again?
