9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 258

Episode 258

Episode 93. Seruka Restoration (8)

Rumble!

Almost as soon as Rakir finished speaking, the sound of something collapsing spread from the dungeon. It was a heavy noise, like an earthquake.

[Oh no… it looks like you’ve already woken up.]

“What did the crazy demon kid make?”

[They were making an underworld weapon called Maktoum, modeled after an ogre.]

The soldiers around them began to shake. They had no idea what was going on.

The soldiers’ anxious eyes turned towards the entrance to the dungeon.

[Lord, it would be good to solve that first. Your consciousness will be twisted, and nothing but the desire to destroy will remain.]

Whoaaaaa!

Maktoum screamed and began to smash the entrance to the dungeon. The entrance collapsed, exposing Maktoum’s left arm and part of his shoulder.

Seeing that, Yuma couldn’t help but hold his breath and get nervous, because it really feels like an ogre.

Then Maktoum came up to the ground, completely tearing down the entrance to the dungeon made of bricks as if opening a lid.

Broken bricks fell from Maktoum’s body.

“oh my god. Everything seems to come out now.”

said Natalie, looking at Maktoum. Even though there was a considerable distance between Yuma’s party and the entrance of the dungeon, Mak Toum’s huge body was enough to give a sense of intimidation.

“Oh oh ogre!”

“Everyone run away! Ooh!”

Amel’s soldiers were ready to drop their weapons and flee out of the castle. They did not know that it was a weapon born from the ritual of the underworld.

Maktoum was clearly different from the ogre.

First of all, the ogre didn’t have protruding fangs, and it wasn’t that dark. An ogre exhales a deep radiant aura whenever it exhales from its gray body.

However, when the soldiers saw a giant monster the size of a dragon, they had no choice but to assume that it was an ogre.

It was because he knew that there was only one ogre in the world.

Yuma would have mistaken Maktoum for an ogre if it had not been for Rakir’s explanation.

Yuma did not bother to inform the fleeing soldiers that it was an underworld weapon, not an ogre.

Even if they were enemies, Amel’s soldiers were human. The betrayal was done by the commanders, not the soldiers, so it was better to leave it to ruin.

[Compared to a real ogre, it’s a doll that’s less than a bug… but it’s enough to give fear to humans. If you become the demon king of the underworld, you won’t be greedy for anything like that. Heehee, there are many better ones.]

Rakir clearly misunderstood Yuma.

“…you’ll see after you kill that one. Natalie is holding on to that demon.”

“Are you going to clean that up yourself? fight together.”

“That bastard can run away.”

[I decided to follow my lord, but why did I run away? And this arrogant bitch! Raise your word to the lord.

A lowly bitch dares to become the ruler of the underworld.]

Yuma hit Rakir several times with the handle of Amula. It didn’t cut, but just touching it seemed to cause considerable pain to Rakir.

Natalie also trampled on Rakir, who had fallen to the floor, with an expressionless face.

“girl? Shall I rip off all my wings? Tell me to die.”

[Break it!]

Yuma caught Rakir rolling on the floor and threw it into Tulka’s muzzle.

And put Natalie in the tulka.

“Don’t eat or kill tulka. I’m taking a walk around the neighborhood with Natalie.”

Maktoum was still turning his head around, but did not make any movement.

However, as soon as he saw Yuma and the others standing on the roof, he screamed again and showed his hostility.

Before Natalie could say anything more, Tulka threw herself off the wall. Natalie turned her head and looked at Yuma’s back with a worried expression.

He knew better than anyone that Yuma was strong, but he couldn’t help but be worried.

Anyone who hears that their lover is fighting such an unheard-of monster cannot help but feel anxious.

“It’s really big…

What if that was a real ogre and not a weapon called Maktoum?

Imagining such a family made Yuma dizzy. In other words, the current situation was a variable, and fortunately, it was within the range that Yuma could handle.

But what if an unmanageable variable pops up?

As a result of the recent two fights to recover Seruka, Yuma intuitively sensed that many variables would exist in the future.

It had to be strong enough to solve any variable.

Yuma felt a strong desire to improve his performance for the first time in a long time and lifted his spirits.

Twenty aura spheres began to surround Yuma’s body. The spot where Yuma was standing instantly lit up with the brilliance of the aura.

“Kaaaaa!”

Maktoum picked up the wreckage of the collapsed building and threw it at Yuma. It was a boulder the size of a wagon.

Yuma didn’t avoid it and hit Ascalon, cutting it down.

bang! Kurr! A block of stone was cut in half, tearing down the wall behind it.

“Oops!”

A few soldiers who could not escape were crushed under the rubble and died. The stone dust spread like thick fog, and Seruka Castle quickly became a mess reminiscent of a siege.

Maktoum threw a stone again.

This time, Yuma didn’t just slash, but set the blade aside and shattered the stone.

Then, he blew an aura sphere at the bottom of the wall to create an entrance for the soldiers to escape.

‘Hmm, it’s not like I only know how to throw stones…

‘

Yuma lowered his stance and threw himself under the roof.

Maktoum opened his mouth and started gathering his breath.

As if swirling, the black aura soon gathered into a circle. The sphere was quite large.

In the past, when Jeka became a demon, it was ten times bigger than the breath he tried to shoot at Inz Bikan.

Yuma began approaching Maktoum using a speedboat in a zigzag pattern.

Whoa!

Then Maktoum slammed his fist into the floor with his breath in his mouth.

It was a very fast attack for such a huge body, but it wasn’t so that Yuma couldn’t dodge it.

Suddenly, the ground shook as if an earthquake had occurred. Yuma fired five aura spheres before his fists rose again.

The auror spheres clinging to Maktoum’s fists continuously exploded.

Maktoum screamed in pain and began hitting the ground at random, and Yuma stepped on the outer wall of the building and leaped diagonally.

It was intended to slit his throat before his breath fell to the ground.

However, Maktoum, who felt the crisis, radiated a tremendous black aura from his entire body, and Yuma lost momentum and had to land again on the floor.

‘Even if it’s not real, it’s actually made after an ogre.’

At the moment of the fall, he pushed off the black aura that hit him as much as he could, but his whole body felt tingly. There was a gap of about a second as he brushed off the black aura that clung to his body.

Left Aaaaaaaa!

Maktoum didn’t miss it and fired the breath he had accumulated towards Yuma.

The attack range was so large that it was impossible to dodge. The black breath completely covered Yuma’s vision.

Yuma instantly activated Sword Eye. The symbols in front of her eyes were all red, but Yuma stabbed Arila through her breath.

A huge amount of black aura began to be absorbed into Awolla.

However, it could not be seen as good.

It was because the aura that was not synchronized flowed into Yuma’s left arm riding the amoula.

Just like when he fought Empey, his left arm turned purple in an instant.

Yuma calmly made a path in the breath using Amulla.

A gap was visible between Sword Eye’s red symbols, and Ascalon immediately cut through it.

“Kaa!”

Part of the gigantic pillar-shaped breath spread like a wave to the side of Yuma. It was torn apart by the large aura blades that Ascalon spewed out.

Yuma threw herself in the direction of the explosion of her breath. Then, while spinning, he swung the Ascalon.

A whirlwind of black wind rose, and a sharp, straight-line aurablad shot through it.

blood shot!

Aurablade pierced Maktoum’s eye egg.

A deafening scream rang out. It was a roaring sound that could cause a great shock if the eardrums were not protected with an aura.

‘Rather, that crazy sound is more dangerous than the breath. In the first place, unless you are an unmanned person who can protect your body with Aura, you won’t be able to fight it.’

Maktoum covered his ruptured eyeball with the palm of his hand and took a step back.

In fact, the fight seemed to have ended at that moment.

Yuma unleashed a swift speed at Maktoum’s feet. It was clear that Maktoum would be seriously injured if he was hit by a rolling foot, but that was not the case for Yuma.

Ascalon emitted a flash of light and cut Maktoum’s ankle. Maktoum’s body boasted tremendous strength, but it was a blow from Yuma reinforced with Sword Eye.

“Koo oh woah…

In an instant, both of Maktoum’s ankles were cut off.

Maktoum’s gigantic body began to fall backwards slowly, and Yuma had no intention of letting it fall.

Ascalon and Aquila began to get stuck in Maktoum’s body. Yuma held the two swords in reverse and climbed Maktoum’s body as if climbing a rock wall.

Meanwhile, Maktoum’s body was falling backwards. However, Yuma thrust a blade into Maktoum’s nape long before his head touched the ground.

While climbing Maktoum, the aura and the black aura were shining at every spot he stabbed. Yuma crosses the two swords stabbed in Maktoum’s neck and pulls them out, leaping backwards.

‘Explode!’

Pa-pa-pa-pa…

The moment Maktoum fell to the ground, tearing several buildings apart, the auras that Yuma planted in his body began to explode one by one.

The soldiers who ran away in a hurry turned around and watched the scene.

As they watched the whole monster, which they thought was an ogre, explode, they couldn’t speak and became as stiff as a stone statue.

The aura and black aura exploded one after another, tearing apart Maktoum’s entire body. Black flesh and purple blood spurted high into the sky.

It was a terrible situation with blood and flesh covering Seruca Castle, but from a distance it was a great spectacle.

‘My left arm hurts so much… If it’s Maktoum or whatever, if they can create something like this indefinitely, we’ll definitely need the support of the Western Allies.’

Maybe it will be a war that goes beyond the dragon horse war.

Yuma thought while avoiding Maktoum’s flesh that fell like rain. It was the worst home I didn’t want to imagine.

‘I’ll have to talk to that demon named Rakir. Damn, I can’t help it because I can’t guess how much the power of the underworld is.’

Meanwhile, the fleeing soldiers lost their minds and began to cheer as they watched Maktoum explode.

Natalie, feeling annoyed by the sight, got in her tulka and blocked their way.

“There are losers. Don’t even think about running away, go back to Seruca Castle. I have a lot to ask you guys to do and ask. Those of you who were officers and knights, come out quickly and take command.”

The soldiers had to stop cheering and watch Natalie’s eyes in fear.

Seruca, which had been occupied by traitors, was thus restored.
