9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword - Chapter 91

Episode 91

Episode 39. Duran Runaway (2)

Yuma’s heavy regime stuck in Duran’s back.

The feeling of hitting the tip of the fist was perfect. There was a light blow sound, and Duran’s shirt was ripped open like a balloon bursting.

Duran’s bulging deltoids and latissimus dorsi muscles were revealed. Even though he was over sixty years old, his erector spinae muscles were also deeply hollowed out, as if he could fit a finger.

And countless scars left by swords, spears, axes, and bows.

As if to prove the life of the strongest knight who swept and commanded the battlefield throughout his life, the scars swelled whenever his back muscles moved.

‘I wonder if it was my arrogance to think that even Master would come to his senses at this level. A monstrous human anyway.’

If it was an ordinary soldier who did not have the rigid body of a superman, at least his spine would be broken and he would be crippled for the rest of his life or die instantly.

Yuma raised his fist with sincerity.

However, even after feeding the fist full of aura, the knuckles throbbed. It felt like hitting a castle wall treated with strong magic rather than a person’s back.

tall.

After stopping for a moment, Duran turned his head towards Yuma. Even after being hit by Yuma’s regime, which could crush even rocks, Duran remained fine as if he was not shocked at all.

Yuma also did not think that Duran would die or be seriously injured.

However, the fact that he hadn’t suffered any blows made his pride strangely hurt.

No matter how powerful Duran Zak was, Yuma was also a high-ranking sword master.

“What?”

“Calm down, Master. Have you forgotten Master’s weight and place in the Empire?”

“I must kill them. Don’t block it.”

“I have to stop it.”

“Warned. No more blocking.”

It was a voice that was more frightening because it was calm. Duran really had no other choice but to launch an all-out war with Rollman D right away.

‘I’d rather be patient with destroying the mansion and beating Randel.’

Yuma alerted his senses and prepared for the next attack.

Catherine and Natalie were evacuating the people in the mansion as Yuma said. Servants rushed through the corridors to alert the nobles of the Jacques family of an emergency.

“The head of the household has become strange! We must get out!”

The servants, who had misunderstood Duran’s mark for an earthquake just a moment ago, screamed at the top of their voices to save their masters.

After ordering the servants to evacuate, Catherine ran straight to Duran’s room. It was possible because Yuma was attracting attention for a moment.

It was no different that she hurriedly went to Duran’s room. It was to get Duran’s demonic sword, Starbuster. If it fell into Duran’s hands, the situation could not be undone.

If another family member of the Zach family, not Catherine, had passed Duran and went to catch the Starbuster, it would surely have been a super-corpse.

At least because it was Catherine, Duran’s remaining string of reason seemed to be working.

“You need to be scolded, Master!”

I deliberately chose provocative words.

It was because he wanted to stimulate Duran’s reason to come back even a little bit.

However,

it was Duran who did not even budge an eyebrow even after hearing the ‘crazy person’ from his daughter.

When Yuma stretched out his hand, a spinning auror orb shot straight ahead.

This time, Duran also turned around in an instant and hit the sphere with the palm of his hand.

Duran neutralized it by injecting his own aura so that the aura sphere would not explode in the brief moment when his palm and the aura sphere were in contact.

The auror sphere disintegrated in the air like a extinguished candle. It was an offset effect by the same or more power.

“I don’t want to harm you either. back off.”

“Don’t bullshit, Master. Really, why are you like this!”

“I just do what I have to do.”

Yuma’s continuous attack followed immediately.

Yuma made up his mind not to weigh in on power. The opponent was a monster of the century that did not get a scratch even after being hit with a power of about 70%.

Yuma had aura not only on his fists, but also on his elbows, knees and shins.

All of the parts of the human body most specialized for striking were themselves weapons of destruction.

Duran did not fight back, only dodging or shedding Yuma’s attacks. Some of Yuma’s splendid blows even reached Duran.

However, only Yuma’s fists were still tingling, but Duran was fine.

It was the first time he experienced Duran’s rigid body in bare-handed combat since he was trained by Duran while stationed at Ahmad Castle.

At that time, I did not realize the dignity of Duran. When I was training in Ahmad Castle, less than a year had passed since I returned.

Now more than one year has passed. In the meantime, Yuma’s skills also improved significantly.

It would not be an exaggeration to say that the achievements of 10 years of talented warriors were achieved in 1 year.

And as his skills increased, he was newly realizing the unknown inaction of a human named Duran.

He was always the king of knights, the strongest in the world, no, the strongest in history, he was the incarnation of his loyalty, and Duran behaved like an old man, but his overwhelming force was real.

‘I wonder if Marlon Zach, the Sword God in his previous life, felt like this when he fought Hugo with his bare hands.’

Yuma knew.

If he put his mind to it, Duran could kill himself within five minutes.

Five minutes may seem like a very short time, but there were not many unmanned people who could survive 5 minutes from Duran even after searching around the world.

Not to mention, if you were bare-handed. It would be difficult for ordinary high-level sword masters to hold out for even 5 minutes against Duran with their bare hands, even with their main weapon.

“Are you done?”

Duran asked softly. It meant that if I hit them all, I would go the way I was going.

It’s like being treated like a child. The back of his head was tingling.

The road that Yuma walked after returning was also a mess full of blood and death. You can’t afford to be treated like this.

“No, you senile old man! It can’t be, can it?”

He bravely countered, but there was a limit to blocking Duran with bare-handed fighting.

Actually, it’s a shame because Duran is dealing with him. If he had just ignored Yuma and went, he’d be walking down the street with his Starbuster already.

There has never been a moment when I felt so sad that Ascalon was not there. Ascalon was needed incomparably to the first fight with Jekka Dean.

The sword was more common than the Jacques Gaen coins. However, ordinary high-grade steel swords could not withstand Yuma’s high-purity Aura and Duran’s strong body.

At that moment, a ray of light shot from the railing of the stairs on the second floor of the mansion near Duran’s neck.

It was lightning fast. An unmanned person who has not reached the state will only recognize that something flashed for a moment.

In Yuma’s eyes, he saw what a flash of light flashed in the blink of an eye. It was an Aura Blade that was extremely compressed and fired like a beam of light.

He probably wouldn’t have been able to avoid it neatly if he had been ambushed from that distance. Yuma, who freely uses the swift speed, was not far behind Duran in terms of speed.

As such, it was impossible for Duran to completely avoid the Aura Blade.

Instead, Duran blocked the Aura Blade in a more formidable way.

He twisted his neck and chewed up the au lair with his teeth. Like a beast of prey that accurately bites a descending hawk!

It was a miracle that is difficult to describe. Of course, there was no time for admiration.

“Take Yuma!”

The owner of the Aura Blade was Randel Jacques. Randell was also holding twin swords as if he was determined to show off his inaction to the fullest.

He leaped from the railing and threw a sword at Yuma. Yuma, who took a step forward and snatched the handle of the sword, knew right away.

It wasn’t a sword made of Selukasan steel like Ascalon, but it was a famous sword made by Ori Halkon that would make warriors drool.

A famous sword that doesn’t fall far behind Seruka’s steel. With a sword of this size, he might be able to put all his strength into Duran’s body properly.

It was fortunate that the place where Duran caused a runaway was the mansion of the Zach family. Even in the capital, there were not many families that could immediately supply such a famous sword made by Orihalcon in an emergency.

Shaak-!

Randall’s strike, which aimed at Duran’s waist, landed. The twin swords moved fiercely, like light beams oscillating arbitrarily.

It was the first time Yuma had seen Randel use twin swords.

It was Randel of the twin swords that Duran had expressed in the past, ‘If you want to beat Randel who uses twin swords, you need 3 years as a disciple and 1 year as an adoptive son’.

Indeed, that expression was not entirely incorrect.

Randall, who was holding the twin swords, was not the usual idiot who laughed sloppily wearing a towel, but showed the dignity of one of the best geniuses in Zach.

Duran was already forming a huge Orosword, just like he did against Yuma in the Zach family’s arena.

“Everyone is crazy!”

“Crazy is your uncle! What are you doing? Is it because you want to start a civil war in the real empire?”

More than ever, Randall had a serious expression on his face.

“Master, stop now. Even Zishka lower would not want this.”

“Shut up!”

“uncle!”

Gooooooh – Duran’s pupils glowed with vivid blue auras. For an instant, the pupils emitted a sharp cross-shaped light.

contraception-!

The huge Orosword split the gap between Yuma and Randel into bells.

It was not the distance that the sword body could directly reach the two of them.

The two noticed that something had passed between them. It was the relentless sword wind and the Orable Raid.

rumble!

Behind Yuma and Randall was the wall of the drawing room.

Beyond the wall of the parlor was the wall of the storeroom of ornaments, beyond that wall was the great kitchen wall, beyond that was the wall of the servants’ bath, and beyond that several more walls.

The numerous walls made of the finest stone, famous for its high density and hardness, were split in half like tofu by Duran’s single sword.

Even that wasn’t enough, and Duran’s au lairade crossed the Zac family garden and reached the stone wall outside the mansion.

Fortunately there were no casualties.

“You can’t follow me, but are you blocking my way!”

Gulp…

Yuma swallowed dry saliva.

I’ve seen Duran’s decisive battle that actually split the clouds in the sky, but isn’t this an ordinary seed cutting without a grandiose modifier called ‘decisive battle’?

It was a sword that he wielded by concentrating his mind for a moment without even preparing.

However, neither Yuma nor Randall, who had just witnessed his strength, were not afraid of Duran.

The madman in this mansion wasn’t just Duran Jac.

Those two were also human beings with the temperament of a genius warrior to the core, so rather, they felt a strange pleasure when they faced the blow they just had.

Yuma was so flushed that he felt a tingling sensation all over his body.

Now, rather than cataclysmic disasters such as the fall of Rollmandi or the civil war of the empire, he just wanted to be able to fight with peace of mind.

There was a thrilling training partner who would never die even if he tried his best.
