Academy’s Genius Swordmaster - Chapter 214
214. King of the North (8)
#214
“Yes. This is Jaifa’s son, Aradan Turgung.”
Ronan, at a loss for words, kept his mouth shut. It was the moment when the identity of the unpleasant feeling of deja vu he felt earlier was revealed
. Adeshan, who was breathing heavily, said in a trembling voice,
“Did you bring your nephew back to life… with necromancy?”
“Yes. It is no exaggeration to say that Aradan made my long-cherished wish come true. Unlike me, who has no talent in martial arts, he inherited his older brother’s qualities.”
“Uh, how can you…how…”
“I’m sure Aradan will be happy too. He can directly punish the enemy who killed him and his father who became soft.”
There was no sense of guilt as much as a thread in Barka’s plain voice. Aradan’s eyes, which had already died, were scattering cool eyes. It
was a ghost that was unique to a corpse that was resurrected against logic. Adeshan looked at those eyes. I covered my mouth. I felt like I was going to vomit the moment I
lost my guard. Because everyone shut their mouths, only the sound of swords clashing resounded in the silence distorted by ugliness. Ronan, who had been responding silently, muttered in a low voice,
“Even if you do…”
“Kuaaaa!”
Suddenly, Aradan’s roar erupted from his intellect. More violent sword strikes poured down on Ronan. Two blades bristling like venomous teeth were about to pierce his throat. Ronan shattered the hilt. I grabbed it and
shouted
.
Aradan’s eyes widened. The rapidly accelerating La Mancha struck the two flying swords at the same time. Kachang! Fragments of the shattered blades flew like snowflakes.
“Move away!”
Ronan immediately stretched out his legs and kicked Aradan’s abdomen. The sensation of bursting his intestines and breaking his spine was transmitted through his toes. Kwaang! The body that flew while destroying various experimental tools landed on the wall of the laboratory. “…Anyway
, You are an ignorant fellow.”
Barca shook his head, watching, Ronan’s legs, strengthened by Baren’s Aura, wrapped in a golden halo. Ronan looked back at him and growled, “I’ll show you Hell
.
In my two lives, I’ve never felt this level of disgust. The maggot-infested field ward felt cleaner. It had to be killed. It was as painful as possible. Ronan
was about to manifest an aura.
“Do as you like. Shouldn’t we finish the game anyway?”
“what?”
Ronan frowned at the incomprehensible sound. In an instant, the smoke rising from the place where Aradan was impaled was torn to the left and right. It was the moment when the arm that moved before the head reflexively took a defensive posture. Bang!! It rushed like lightning. The shadow collided with Ronan.
“Kreuk! Aww!
”
Ronan raised his gaze and spat out curse words. Five claws reminiscent of a curved sword were holding La Mancha. The figure of Aradan roaring with his fangs exposed was surprisingly healthy. ‘How does it move?
‘
I obviously broke my spine, but I don’t know what happened. The abdomen that was hit by the kick was still completely sunken. No matter how undead it is, if its body is damaged, it won’t be able to move freely. I wanted to figure out the cause, but Aradan didn’t give me time to think
. After fixing his posture, he swung to the side and swung his arm
.
I couldn’t find the slightest gap in the perfect rotation. It was hard to believe that it was an action done only with instinct and murderous intent. The hand that flew through the wind was going to blow Ronan’s head as well as his entire upper body
. ”
Ronan twitched his lips. If he attacked him head-on, his shoulders would break. He retreated to a stable distance and was preparing for a counterattack. Cheek! Suddenly, nails that extended to his eyes slapped Ronan’s face
. ?!”
His cheeks were torn and blood splattered. Clearly, the range was longer than expected. It was fortunate that he turned his face just before contact and only brushed it. Ronan’s eyes met Aradan, and his eyebrows raised. “That’s…
! ”
“Cheereureuk! Kurrukreuk!”
In fact, Aradan’s left arm was so long that his fingertips touched the floor. Black tentacles were wriggling inside the open wound on the inside of the elbow. It didn’t seem like he was revived simply by breathing. Barca said with a laugh mixed voice, “Give
up
. It’s not your opponent.
”
“It was a favor. My nephew wanted to become a stronger warrior than anyone else.”
Barka made Aradan into a true warrior through black magic and various experiments, he said triumphantly. Ronan bit his lower lip. I wanted to run right away and hit that neck, but Aradan didn’t get out of the way.
” Deal with them and come back.”
Barca turned his back, leaving behind the struggling Ronan. Contrary to his relaxed tone, his steps were quick. Several corpses stood up from all over the lab and surrounded him as if escorting him
. ..!”
“Grruk grruk.”
The objects, which seemed to have little combat power, were purely meat shields to block Ronan’s aura
.
Ronan impatiently grabbed the hilt of his sword. His hand went blurry for an instant, and then a black line formed over Aradan’s chest. Ouch! Dark, rotten blood soaked Ronan’s face
.
“Grrruk!”
But Aradan didn’t care. Wear Tiger, who showed a reaction at the level of being stabbed with a thumbtack, immediately took a stance and rushed at Ronan. I could feel his ribs being cut, but it was an unbelievable life force even if it was a corpse. “Let’s do it in moderation
. . huh?”
“Kyaaaaaa!”
It was natural, but the answer Ronan was expecting did not come back. Aradan was already dead a long time ago. A puppet that has been marinated and manipulated with all sorts of malice
.
“Aradan was really strong, but he didn’t think he was going to lose. However, the fact that he was a child of Zaifa made his sword heavy. To end this, he would have to make a complete flesh piece and grind it, but he couldn’t do it.
” Damn, if I had known it would be like this, I would not have read Zaifa’s letter. Barca, who was about to enter the side door, suddenly stopped in place
.
“Ugh…!”
Adeshan gritted her teeth as she slowly moved her steps. I never thought she would notice in the midst of this commotion.
She was sneaking up on Barka while Ronan got Aradan’s attention. Barka tapped her on the head with her index finger and said,
“They’ve been trying to invade my mental world ever since. They have dangerous powers.”
“Barca!”
She stopped stealth and pulled out her crossbow. A trumpeted shot that was already hanging on the string was fired. Kang! The arrow, which reached right in front of Barca’s forehead, ricocheted off as if it had hit a wall. “Ah!
”
“But… no matter how ridiculous I become, will I be beaten by the likes of you?”
Barka snorted. The protection of the stars shimmered around him. Adeshan’s face hardened with despair. Barka turned away and snapped her fingers. “Take it away.
”
“Oh my…!”
Adeshan immediately triggered the next crossbow. If it couldn’t damage the main body, at least the ceiling had to be knocked down to stop it. At that time, Aradan, who was fighting Ronan, leaped off the ground. Boom! “Klaralarak!
”
“Don’t be ridiculous!”
Adeshan’s eyes widened. It was an unrealistic reaction speed. Aradan, who had removed the danger, let out a claw.
“Kuhung!”
“this…!”
It was too late to avoid it. She raised the whip reflexively. Kwajik! The dagger-like claw barely landed on the whip instead of her heart. However, it was not completely successful in defending. The whip pushed back at her. ‘s upper body, and at the same time, her body, which had been thrown out by the impact, rolled on the floor
.
Blood spurted from Adeshan’s mouth. Five sharp iron shards pierced her from chest to side. I could feel the internal organs under her skin hurt. Barka had already disappeared through the side door. The sound of footsteps was getting louder
. Instead
of defending or dodging, Adeshan, who gathered his last energy, fired another crossbow in the direction of Barka. .
“……Kuh!” It was a hit. Barca’s groan followed.
Fortunately
, it seemed to have dug right after the star protection disappeared. This will make Ronan’s pursuit much easier
. It was rapidly blurring. She lost her balance and fell on her face after fulfilling her mission. Aradan, arms raised, was about to deliver the final blow.
“Adeshan!”
Ronan’s cry was heard. At the same time, the setting sun poured in from behind Aradan. The aura that attracted the opponent pulled Aradan right in front of Ronan’s eyes in an instant
.
Arathan turned around without embarrassment. The blow that he was trying to fly to Adeshan naturally fell over Ronan’s head. Ronan shouted without looking at him
.
The sword body, which had been scattered in vermillion, was stained red. La Mancha disappeared from view for an instant. At the same time, the hand that passed by Ronan’s ear slammed the floor. Kwaaang! The stone floor was destroyed, revealing the ground composed of ice.
” Craaaaaagh!”
It was a draw. Aradan tried to attack again, but Ronan, who was supposed to be in front of him, couldn’t be seen. When he turned his head, he saw him ignoring himself and running towards Adeshan. “…Kreuk?
”
At that time, dozens of red lines were drawn on Aradan’s body. Feeling that his senses were being cut off, he was about to bark at something. Poo-! Exactly 20 pieces of his body collapsed like an explosion. Black blood and internal organs were also cut off tentacles
. “Roronan
…
” Don’t do it, I’ll treat you right now.”
The wound was deep. Ronan immediately pulled out the whip and poured the emergency potion into the affected area. With the sound of water evaporating from a pot, the blood stopped and the flesh began to heal. Adeshan, unable to overcome the pain, broke his arm. “ Ugh
uh uh uh uhhh…!”
“Why the hell did you do something so reckless? Not like you.”
Ronan bit his lip. If he had been just one step behind, Adeshan would not have been of this world anymore. It was an act that didn’t go well with the always rational woman
. Haha, let’s go after him…”
“Adeshan.”
“Ronan I…”
Adeshan, who was swaying like a newborn deer, stood up. She looked away and suddenly pointed to Ronan’s back
.
“yes?”
The pieces of meat that made up Aradan were wriggling and gathering in one place, and the black tentacles that extended like the legs of an arthropod were attaching the severed body together
.
Ronan spat out a curse. It seemed that it was not completely over. Even though the shape was unrecognizable, Aradan was trying to live
. Adeshan, who watched the terrible sight, opened her mouth.
“I can’t forgive Barca…”
Contrary to the boiling anger, the voice was cold and subdued. The gray eyes shimmered in a different color than usual. An inner voice that had been heard from some time ago was encouraging her.
【Yes. Just a little more.】
