9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 204
Episode 204 Episode
76 The world is wide and there are many strong people (3)
The natives’ boats, equipped with the latest spirit navigation devices, quickly evaded Yuma’s boats.
what? A primitive man who rejects civilization and lives only on an island?
They were armed with the most up-to-date equipment Yuma had ever seen in the East.
The record of them is wholly wrong. When the urgent situation passed, Ballinan expressed his absurd feeling, asking, “What is this situation like?”
However, Yuma had one more absurd incident besides the natives.
“Our great Spirit King refused to respond to your summons because he was ignoring the Lord.
“Umm, that. Because the spirit is chaos.”
“chaos? Hondoon? under. Let’s not talk. Why is that bastard so useless?”
It was the same in Rong Doge’s castle. Even without Igmeseus, Yuma was able to get out of there with enough Ballinan.
That doesn’t really help at all. Leave only the grandiose name of the King of Spirits.
Ballinan chuckled and scratched the back of his head. It was not the first time that Igmeseus refused to respond to a summons because he was sleeping.
Yuma calmed down and decided to think about Pora Pora Island.
At most, I thought stone knives or spears would come flying, but they were no different from a state-of-the-art army.
With this in mind, it was questionable whether it would be possible to go up to the land.
The story of the stowaway boss was right. The native babies of Porapora Island were demons.
There are state-of-the-art ships and magic bombardments. If so, there was no guarantee that there would be no magical handcuffs. And up to the user.
Yuma could now understand why Igor was being held captive by the natives.
‘If the firepower of the natives is this much, it makes sense that Igor is being held. Besides, the spear that was thrown at me at the end… How many Aura users are there? Are those bastards really natives?’
What if the group of natives who had just retreated returned to the island, warned them of the threat of Yuma, and prepared themselves?
In that case, it was questionable whether it would be possible to reach the island right away. The small boat they were on would not be able to withstand the magic bombardment from close range.
Moreover, Yuma was in a position to protect Cog and Ballinan.
I wondered if I would have enough stamina to survive the hand-to-hand combat that would begin right away, even if I managed to break through the barrage of shells and get to the land.
Yuma was able to withstand the engagement just now. If he had been at the level of a universal advanced sword master, the party would not have been as safe as they are now.
‘I can’t go back.’
The smuggling ship they boarded has long since left, and it is impossible to go back that far on this small ship.
First of all, we must save Igor.
The problem was how.
If anything, he said to turn everything upside down and save Igor as before, but it was difficult to think of the right way when the situation turned out like this.
Who knew that natives could be so systematic and powerful.
Now that I see it, the reason why there are so few travel reports about Porapora Island in the outside world is no different.
Whether they came for the purpose of travel or by chance, it was clear that most of them had died on the way to Porapora Island.
‘Once I can safely go up to land, I think I can do anything…
Fighting on the boat like before had too many restrictions.
They will surely go back and prepare something else to prevent Yuma’s ship from approaching. Retreats are usually meant to be.
There was not a single thing Yuma could know about how many natives were on the island, how many Auror users, and what traps they had dug.
“Ballinan.”
“huh?”
“You’ve become the King of Spirits, but you can still summon normal spirits, right?”
“yes.”
“Is it possible to scout inside the island?”
“Um, to an approximate level? Low-level or intermediate-level spirits don’t understand human things very well. More complicated devices like traps.”
As if thinking of something, Yuma opened his mouth again.
“Artifact! There were artifacts.
Ballinon, do you have the Illusion Artifact I used at the gambling hall the other day?”
“Yeah, I took care of it at Rong Dogge’s castle. spirits.”
“Can you make an illusion identical to this ship with that artifact?”
“It may or may not work. no i can’t
An image similar to a ship is not entered in my artifact.”
“Let it be. let’s write that If you go in like this, you won’t be able to avoid sinking.”
Ballinan seemed to understand, and began taking out several artifacts from his bag.
“The reason I was able to fool my brother with the illusion magic at the gambling house was because I prepared an image for a long time. Illusion magic is copying an image, so it usually takes some time.”
“hmm. What is the image entered into your artifact?”
“Guests at the Povian Street gambling house, me lying in bed, me sitting, my brother sleeping, my brother eating
. when you will need it
“By the way, when the hell did this madman record my image?”
After starting the trip with Yuma, he collected and entered them in his spare time.
“No, it’s just cool.”
Saying so, Ballinan caused several illusions by resonating the artifacts in his chest and the ring artifacts.
Then, in the air, the image of Ballinan and the image of Yuma appeared side by side.
Yuma was so dumbfounded that he almost punched Ballinan, but he took a deep breath and held it in.
“Oh right! Natalie is there too.”
When Ballinan hit the artifact again, Natalie’s figure was drawn in the air. Natalie’s welcome stood still and smiled awkwardly.
When Yuma saw her face, his heart went into trouble.
“Why is Natalie’s appearance…
After looking at Yuma’s heavy atmosphere, Ballinan cautiously opened her mouth.
“Natalie asked me to make an image of herself when I was going to the east on the boat… so I guess it was to show my brother?”
The vision was vivid, as if it had really moved Natalie as it was. Yuma wanted to reach out and grab her right away.
Then, suddenly coming to his senses, he finally hit Ballinan’s head with one blow. In this complicated situation, it only makes my heart more disturbed.
“Ah-oh! I’ll show you this later. Any other useful illusions? As an illusion to attract the attention of those savage bastards.”
“If it’s like that…
Woe!
When Barlinan activated the artifact again, the illusion of a huge dragon unfolded.
Cogg stopped rowing in surprise at the sudden apparition of the dragon.
“There is such a welcome, too.”
The illusion was so huge that even Yuma was a little surprised.
But it was just there. It was an unexpected welcome, so it was embarrassing, but the appearance was not very good.
The size was enormous, but the overall appearance was skewed, making it look ridiculous, like a child’s scribble.
“Could it be that you made this into a dragon? Are there any proper dragons?”
Its big eyes take up half of its face and its four legs are as thin as wooden sticks, but where in the world is there a dragon with only its belly protruding?
Even large hearts were drawn on both wings.
“When I was living in the mansion, I sometimes made it to make the young servants laugh…
It was a reason like Ballinan. For some reason, Yuma recalled the flame magic Cahel Povian had shown the young Miryaks, and laughed out loud.
Afterwards, Ballinan spread several more visions in the air. It was a meadow or a vision of a group of tree wisps, and so on.
None of them were of any use.
“At least a dragon would be the best.
It’s because it’s big.”
No matter how ridiculous it looks, it will look like a dragon from a distance. Unless you have the superhuman level of vision of the natives.
“How long can you keep the illusion?”
“About an hour.”
“that’s enough. give me cog no Val Linan gives off dragon visions as soon as I speak. Let’s just hope they’re distracted by those stupid illusions.”
Said Yuma, rowing vigorously. The party’s boat began to move at a speed different from when Cog was rowing.
‘Maybe it’s fortunate that my stomach is small.’
If he had been on the ship of the stowaway boss, the situation could have gone even worse.
The bigger the ship, the greater the range to protect, and you won’t be able to move stealthily like now.
“Unfold now! As far as possible!”
As Pora Pora Island got closer, Yuma said.
When Barlinan activated the artifact, the dragon’s vision unfolded in the middle of the sea again.
And Yuma rowed madly and drove the boat to the other side of the dragon.
‘If something like this is floating in their offshore, they’ll have no choice but to be concerned. He even engaged with me until just now.’
Even against a small ship, they poured over a hundred rounds of magic bombardment. Even after seeing the vision of such a large dragon, it didn’t seem like they would stay still.
Yuma’s ploy worked. The natives of Pora Pora Island had fortified guards deployed all over the island to find intruders.
The guards used the mysterious cylinders they stole from outsiders who had invaded their home in the past to confirm the appearance of the illusion that Ballinan had unfolded. It was a telescope.
“Umpa!”
“Pa-pa-pa!”
The first to see the dragon’s vision, the natives stomped their feet and screamed.
Woo-woo-!
The natives then blew their horns to announce that something suspicious had been discovered.
The sound spread like a beacon, and soon all the guards on Porapora Island mercilessly blew their horns.
The sound of the trumpet reached Yuma and the others along the calm dawn sea.
Yuma couldn’t tell if the sound was from finding out their ship or from an illusion.
pop! Cuckoo!
However, after seeing several magic bombardments fired towards the dragon, his heart sank. Fortunately, the intelligence of the natives did not seem to be that high.
“What island do they pile up magic cannonballs on? Anyway, good luck.”
While the natives were wasting their shells on the dragon’s welcome, Yuma was able to enter the island leisurely.
He circled the island and deliberately brought the boat to the side of the cliff. It was because even if those damn barbarians had strengthened their vigilance, they wouldn’t have placed them all the way to the cliff.
Yuma roughly tied the boat with a rope and touched the cliff a few times with the palm of his hand.
“How do I get up here?”
asked Ballinan in a worried tone.
“You can lift it up and go up.”
Yuma had climbed countless cliffs while being trained by Duran.
Even with a rock on his back much heavier than Ballinan and Cog.
‘I miss that old man since I haven’t seen him in months. It would be very reassuring if you were by my side at the moment.’
Thinking so, Yuma tied the trembling Cog and Ballinan to herself.
