9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 384

Episode 384

Episode 125. Blue Dagger and Xyil Bridge (3)

* * * Meanwhile, Blue Dagger’s stronghold.

When ‘Vargas’ Gluttony’ tore apart, the warlock who cast it collapsed to the floor, vomiting several lumps of black blood.

[Heuk…!]

The fallen warlock strangled himself and rolled on the floor. The fingers holding the neck rapidly aged and became thinner. It is running out of vitality.

His body was getting sore, but the black blood gushing out of his mouth like a fountain became fiercer as time passed. There were already puddles of blood on the floor.

‘Gluttony of Vargas’ was a black magic like a double-edged sword.

As the name suggests, it is a black magic that borrows the power of Vargas, the general of the summer world. And, like all demons, Vargas had a principle of lending his power only when he received a corresponding price.

The price Vargas decided to receive from this black magician was the body and soul of a human who had risen to the throne of the Demon God of the Underworld. As a bonus, it was the human body of the demon king of the underworld, a young dragon, the ghost of Pijin Carta, and two strong humans.

Because of that premise, Vargas gave up his power in exchange for only 5,000 human lives.

‘Gluttony of Vargas’ was originally a black magic that could not be spread even if 500,000 human lives were sacrificed. It was because Vargas had to provide enough mana to be unable to move for a while.

Receiving the lives of 5,000 human beings was, in fact, only the minimum number needed to open the passage of magical power.

However, Vargas did not receive the payment he had promised.

That was why this warlock was dying horribly. Even after he died, he would not go to the underworld and would fall into eternal torment in the underworld.

[Shh shh ram..!]

Even as he spoke the two-letter name, the warlock’s body visibly shrank. After a few more seconds, it seemed that it would turn into a single point and disappear completely from the world.

While his head was distorted and his neck was completely gone, another black magician stood in front of him, clicking his tongue. It was a break.

[Oops… There’s a problem.]

[Oh, how!]

Unlike the desperate warlock, Shiram nodded as if it was nothing.

[It’s not easy for me to ask for mercy from Vargas, but I wonder if you’ll ever be able to use yourselves

. ]

This is because it has shrunk to the size of three bricks.

Still, it was hidden.

[But since we’re in a pitiful situation, let’s give it another chance.]

Shiram stretched out his finger and opened the dimension. Inside, the true face of an ominous creature indescribable to human language was wandering.

It was Vargas.

Then Shiram whispered something in the language of the void and closed the plane again.

In the meantime, it took only an instant for the warlock’s body, shrunk to the size of a pea, to return to its original state.

[Heo-eok-heo-eok!]

The warlock looked around, touching my body here and there. As if the shock hadn’t gone away, he even drooled like a child.

[This time, Vargas-nim was also greedy, so I let him go. But it does not mean complete forgiveness. The crime of breaking your promise with the General of the Summer is different from the weight of the law you used as a human.] [

You son of a bitch!]

Suddenly, the black magician grabbed Shiram by the collar.

[You talk as if only I was responsible! Isn’t using the power of Vargas the method you recommended?

He told Halun about Yuma’s story and said that the baby was on board!] As

the warlock grabbed him by the collar and shook it, the hood that Shiram was wearing came off.

From his empty face, which had no eyes, no nose, and no mouth, an ooze of unknown composition flowed continuously. The black magician flinched and untied his collar.

[…I should have told you when I first set foot in this world.]

[In the end, is this all my share of choice and responsibility? 개새끼가…!]

[그리고 또 하나를 알려 줬지 요. I mean, since you’re beyond human, you can’t treat me like an underling like before. Do you remember? Lyoka Rollmandy. No, we should call it Matram now.]

* * * As first predicted, Yuma was able to cut through a space that was just one side of the door. Rakir, who had been transforming into his true form, almost couldn’t escape, but he narrowly passed.

“Whoaaaaa!”

Watching everyone leave, Yuma, who finally escaped Vargas’ gluttony, let out a deep breath.

When I turned my head and looked back with a dizzy heart, there was still an unknown black magic going on there.

Tens of thousands of fangs could be seen through the cracks made by Yuma, the size of one side of the door. And the darkness that narrows them.

When the objects they should have eaten disappeared, the canines eventually ate each other.

While hard teeth clashed and grinded, the cracks Ascalon had cut through gradually narrowed.

It was a short time, but it was a terrible black magic that I would never want to go through again.

“There is no such thing as hell.”

Saying that, Yuma rubbed her chest. Then he looked at his fallen comrades.

It was Yuma who pierced Vargas’ gluttony, but he was also the one who was in the best condition. The rest of the teammates were all exhausted and seemed to have difficulty controlling their bodies properly.

[Master! Joo-gu-woon!]

At least, Rakir, as usual, trembled and rubbed his head against Yuma’s leg.

Zecca still fainted from the shock of the possession, and Marlon was covered in sweat and dirt and was breathing heavily.

Milina also stood still, holding on to her sword as if her stamina had been exhausted from slashing Pidgin’s Aura Blade. He was also in a state of being enchanted by the majesty of Pidgin Carta, which had been incarnated for a while.

Ariel was paying the price for trying to explode the dragon heart. The suddenly gathered mana was shaking in the heart, which could flow back at any moment.

“Is everyone okay?”

Looking at Yuma asking anxiously, his colleagues felt like asking again. why are you okay

Even Yuma wasn’t just okay. He felt refreshed as if he had just received a massage from the masseuses of Hwangseong and finished a bath in a bath mixed with the finest spices.

In fact, my physical condition was that good. Until now, Yuma had always struggled after using tremendous power, but this time he didn’t feel that way at all.

As in the dream I had when I first made fire and ice and fell into the backwater and fainted, it seemed that the path of the aura that ran through my body had widened even more.

There was one fact that Yuma did not know, but not only Yuma, but Rakir and Ariel, who had knowledge of almost all kinds of powers and powers, did not know.

Yuma’s current state is close to a kind of evolution.

After the ‘creation’, Yuma’s aura was mixed with the nature of magic and authority. Of course, the body containing that power also needed to be transformed accordingly.

And evolution proceeded at the very moment when Yuma fell into the reverse current and crossed life and death.

‘It feels like the aura is constantly being created inside my body… what is this?’

After confirming that her teammates were all right, Yuma focused on her own body.

My own body, which had been trained so far, was strangely light and strong.

infinite The aura inside his body was spinning endlessly…

This was the conclusion Yuma came to right away. Just like the moment when Aidan stole the root of the God Tree and gained infinite magical power, Yuma felt that he too had entered the realm of infinity.

I wasn’t even sure how I got there. It was a matter of course, as it was an achievement achieved while falling into a state of suspended animation and having a vague consciousness.

Of course, just as Aidan couldn’t immediately become the world’s strongest wizard after gaining infinite magical power, Yuma’s infinite aura didn’t mean he could surpass Hugo or Duran right away.

No matter how much money there is, its value depends on the person who uses it, and so too does power.

Although Yuma was very close to them, it was still in a position that could not be seen as completely ‘the same’ as them.

[You have achieved it, my lord! Breaking that crazy black magic! This rakir is just thrilling! Kihut that power! How did you do it? Even the lizard said it was the first time he’d seen anything like that!]

“I don’t know exactly. The moment I realize that is the moment I will no longer have a place to climb.”

[Ha ha ha!]

“Stop messing around and take care of your colleagues.

You have to dodge for once. There’s no law that says those bastards shouldn’t use this kind of black magic again.”

Yuma said, raising Marlon up.

Marlon opened his mouth as if he was worried about something other than his own body.

“Didn’t you see?”

It was a question about ‘killing a knight’.

Marlon was worried that Yuma might have seen it. No matter how close you are in the world, you want to show the number of your trump card only after completing it.

“what?”

“No, it is. Ha, the world is wide. I never imagined there would be such dark magic.”

“It’s something I didn’t think of, having gone through all the crazy things in the east.

Is the world wide or what is wrong with it?

“Ariel! can you walk Oh no, I was wrong for asking. Call Yuma Tulka. Let’s get out of here quickly.”

Tulka was released in a forest far away from the village. It was because he thought that if he brought him into the village, there would be countless bastards who would die after attacking Tulka for no reason.

“…There is no need to be in such a hurry.”

Ariel spoke in a strained voice and everyone’s eyes focused on her. She squeezed her chest tightly and spat out words.

“Look around… there are no other living humans besides us. Not only those disgusting bastards from earlier, but all life within a radius of a few kilometers must have died.”

“I see.”

It was something that Yuma had been missing as he was focusing on his body and his teammates.

He also raised his senses and looked around, but as Ariel said, he could not feel the energy of a living human at all.

“It was used as a sacrifice for a black magic ritual. Ha ha ha… There’s no way thousands of humans could… use this level of black magic. There is something different.”

Ariel had no choice but to infer that because she did not know that the price Vargas was supposed to receive was Yuma.

“At the land of dragons, huh. I will go

I’ll get the information, so I’ll have to postpone going to the Xilgyo…

“Ariel man. you didn’t see that What are you talking about? Your comrades are being held captive by those dangerous bastards!

Whatever it is, we have to save Uncle Igor!”

“Heh heh heh heh. The basis that Jailgyo is related to him is…

“Hey hey. stop talking I feel sorry for all I see. the child is dying You should first go to the land of dragons and treat yourself first. We will be looking for Uncle Igor and waiting for you.”

Naturally, Yuma strongly agreed with Marlon’s opinion.

As Ariel said, there is a high probability that unidentified dangers lurk everywhere, but it was his personality to follow his emotions rather than reason when it came to rescuing his comrades.

“We would have done the same if you had been captured, not Uncle Igor. So come and heal. did you see we are so strong Don’t worry and go.”
