chapter 227
227 – The King’s Sword – 2
– Chang!! visor!! visor!!
The sound made when the sword and sword collide is sharp. The green knight’s swordsmanship was also swordsmanship, but Jin Si-yeon’s movements were much faster and stronger than before.
“You gave Siyeon a buff, right?”
“huh.”
“Hmmmm…”
Elizabeth looked at Jin Si-yeon without blinking, as if she would not miss a single movement.
Although they were close friends, they could be said to be rivals.
That’s why Elizabeth can’t help but be more surprised by Jin Si-yeon’s growth.
“Syyeon has always worked hard to solidify her position as the successor to the Jin family, right?”
“I did it too?!”
Elizabeth was embarrassed by Yoo Cho-ah’s words and shouted. I comforted her with a smile and nodded inwardly at Yoo Cho-ah’s opinion.
okay. Elizabeth tried hard, but Jin Si-yeon also worked hard. Nevertheless, the reason why she became stronger now was simple.
Unlike Elizabeth, Jin Si-yeon has many challengers around her. You never know when you might be asked to spar, and you never know when you might be attacked.
Is that it? She had one more reason to become strong.
To be with me.
Unlike Old Man Breath and Mother, who are kind to me, Jin Ho and Elder Jin Ho are people who will pull out their swords if Jin Si Yeon enters the harem.
Of course, I won’t have to fight Jin-ho and the old man. But does that mean Jin Si-yeon is the kind of person who will stay still?
Absolutely not.
She will try to protect me even if it means crossing swords with the elder.
In order to prepare for that time, she had no choice but to become stronger.
This is touching. I heard that you would become stronger for me, but I never thought you would become this strong.
“Siyeon! Cheer up!!”
“I won’t forgive you if you lose! I’ll make fun of you for being a loser!!”
As the cheering continued, a smile appeared on Jin Si-yeon’s lips. A strong slash follows. As the green knight who blocked it stepped back, Jin Si-yeon slowly turned his sword.
“I saw it all. Your attack.”
Catch the black moon in reverse.
This is a story that has not been sincere until now. We burst into cheers because her true value comes out when she takes the reciprocal of Tao. And I applied the buff again.
Jin Si-yeon, who confirmed that the new buff had been applied, let out a short breath. And then the attacks and attacks that followed.
The green knight’s sword became dizzy from the attack, which was fast enough to leave an afterimage.
-Chaaeaeang!!
The knight’s sword, hit by a strong blow from the black moon enveloped in black energy, flew into the air and fell to the ground. And the subsequent attack.
“Do you admit defeat?”
“……”
It stopped at the hole beneath the knight’s helmet.
Anyone can see that this is Jin Si-yeon’s victory.
The green knight also nodded as if he knew this, and Jin Si-yeon retrieved the black moon and pushed it into the sword house.
– May the sun bless you for passing the test with flying colors… However. It would be better not to rely too much on others’ help.
Is it because of the buff given? But it doesn’t matter. Just because I gave you some buffs doesn’t mean you can’t pass the test.
Anyway, what matters is that you win.
“It’s hard to think of it as someone else’s help.”
She laughed and said something softly. At those words, the green knight burst out laughing and nodded.
– If that’s the case, there’s nothing we can do about it. great. I admit my defeat and grant you the protection of the sun. Please convey the knight’s wishes to our king.
A pattern fell from the sky. Jin Si-yeon received the pattern symbolizing the sun and looked at the back of her hand. When the sun symbol on the back of her hand twinkled and disappeared, the green chivalry and the green church also disappeared.
“This… is amazing.”
“Who did you say is next? I want to try too!”
“Don’t worry, we’ll do it anyway. Next is… Galahad’s test. Come on, let’s go.”
Starting with Jin Si-yeon, Cheon Su-ho, his mother, and even old man Breath all passed the test.
Although the last test, the Lake Test, was difficult, the old man was able to pass the test with flying colors, as if he had not obtained the S-level position easily.
“Whoa… it’s over now.”
Everyone had a hard time taking the exam all day. Now all that’s left is to do one raid event and enter the ruins.
“Let’s stop here for today. Thank you all for your hard work.”
“What trouble? Anyway, you know a lot. Where did you find something like this?”
“The library, and Googling. A bit of a flash, right?”
“Hahaha! This is so true. It leaves me speechless!!”
Old Man Breath burst into laughter and patted my shoulder. I smiled and nodded at that reaction, which seemed to be full of goodwill, and then glanced at Elizabeth.
There was a deep smile on her lips.
“Then I guess I’ll have to go back first…”
Old Man Breath slowly turned around, relaxed slightly, and then looked towards the forest.
“I worked hard to take the exam, but I can’t have it taken away by b*stards. Isn’t that right?”
As soon as the old man, who was smiling mischievously, spoke, people in robes started walking from the forest. Even at first glance, it looks like it’s dozens of years old.
“I thought he was someone I had to catch someday.”
An old man wearing a white robe walked out. As soon as he sees him, Old Man Breath’s smile becomes even brighter.
“Eckelpent…”
Priest Ekelpent.
Followers of Celtic evil beliefs who receive power from ancient evil spirits through the use of living sacrifices. And one of the executives of the Blade of Dawn.
He looked at us with cold eyes and continued speaking in a cold tone.
“You guys. Are you aiming for Excalibur?”
“then?”
“I see. Anyway, Breath. I thought the day would come when I would have to fight you. But I never thought an opportunity like this would come… There.”
Ekelpent’s cold gaze fell on Yu Cho-ah. What was contained in that gaze was clear greed.
“I didn’t know I would even get my hands on the bowl.”
“…bowl?”
Yu Choa tilted her head and muttered.
okay. The reason the Blade of Dawn wanted her was because she was a vessel.
Because Yuchoa, who has zero aptitude and can become anything, can be the final piece that completes the apocalypse.
But it’s not an important story.
First of all, I don’t want that kind of ending.
So I immediately applied the buff and grabbed the Bow of Gehenna.
“Stop talking bullshit and leave everything you have and go away, right?”
“Heh. Hit it.”
With that one word, those wearing robes rushed forward. As my comrades prepared for battle were about to fight, I shouted to Old Man Breath.
“Young Master! Please take charge of that guy!!”
“I understand!!”
I gave him all the buffs I could. The most important thing here is to catch that Ekelpent. The rest are at the level of going from A to B, so if you catch that guy, the game is over.
– Boo!!
“Ugh!”
Of course, holding on until then is also work.
“How dare you attack someone!!”
Elizabeth, who was next to me, swung her blessed sword, blocking the attack and splitting the villain’s chest. Just as the man who had been properly hit by a counterattack was about to fall, Ekelpent swung his long staff.
That alone makes the guy who has recovered from the deep wound in his chest step back.
“Heel…”
“No. Well, there’s no law that says villains can’t use heels.”
“That’s right!”
“Let’s just do what we did!! Serenia! Can you fight?”
“Hahahahaha!!”
Serenia roared loudly, pulled out a gun with both hands, and fired without hesitation.
“You evil pagans!! I will establish the Lord’s will here today!!”
Umm. There was no need to ask.
then…
I guess I can just give them a buff and keep them in check.
We thought it would be difficult because we had to take the test in a row, so it seemed like we were rushing into it, but we weren’t that tired.
Why did I bring two healers? It was all in preparation for this attack.
Although Serenia and Ki Ki-yeol were tired because they used a lot of healing, everyone else had plenty of stamina. With my buff included, there was no problem with the power itself.
And that means.
– Suddenly!!
“Wow!!”
It meant the defeat of Priest Ekelpent.
A sword shining golden light cut into Ekelpent’s chest.
Stumbling with a fountain of blood, he dropped his staff and waved in the air with a shocked face.
dump. Old Man Breath shrugged his shoulders when he saw the guy on the floor fainting and groaning.
“Whew… I caught that annoying guy.”
“You didn’t kill him?”
“There are a lot of things to investigate. Especially in the case of the Blade of Dawn. The association has asked us to do so if we can capture the executives alive…”
Old Man Breath, who had trapped him for a long time, demanded heels. He wakes up after being healed by Ki Ki-yeol, but is knocked unconscious by the subsequent punch.
Old Man Breath, who succeeded in capturing a Blade of Dawn executive-level figure, grinned with satisfaction.
“Then let’s root.”
This time too, there were many things that could be worth money or points.
Ki Ki-yeol was very excited. Aside from the daily wages, the cost of the items obtained through this distribution is quite high.
“Hmm? Why that wand? Are you going to use it?”
“uh.”
I picked up the cane that Eckelfeld used earlier. It’s a unique looking wand. Yu Choa tilted her head.
“what is that?”
“Merlin’s staff.”
“Wow. What is that?”
I smiled at her curious look and fiddled with my wand. That moment.
-Tiriring~!!
Wings unfolded behind me with a beautiful sound. They were gray wings. Everyone was amazed when wings of light similar to those that Azazel had were created.
“Woah, wow! What is that?!”
“That’s cool…”
“You seem to have some incredible power, Johan. Can you fly with those wings?”
“no.”
“If I have those wings, does the buff become stronger?”
“No way.”
“Do those wings really help you in battle?”
“at all.”
“…What? So that’s it?”
I shook my head at my colleagues who looked disappointed.
“There is a special option for these wings.”
I said proudly, giving them a thumbs up as their expectations seemed to be growing.
“This is luminous! It glows so pretty at night!”
It’s one of the best looking items in Hero Academia.
“to…”
“Originally, pretty trash performs all its functions as pretty.”
