Academy’s Genius Swordmaster - Chapter 229
229. Sea Road, To the City of Dragons (2)
#229
The bisected galleon was slowly opening and sinking. It was a graceful movement, like a butterfly spreading its wings. A desperate scream echoed over the sea.
“Tummy hungry!”
“Aagh! help me!”
Those who luckily escaped the sword jumped off the ship. The people escaping through the cut sections reminded me of a group of rats evacuating before an earthquake. Schlieffen, who had been watching the sinking sailboat, spat out indifferently.
“It’s softer than I thought.”
“You bastard…”
Ronan chuckled. In terms of power and range, it was incomparably improved compared to before. The wind-turned blade was returning to its original form.
‘A genius is a genius.’
I thought I was a little lazy because I was hanging out with my sister, but it was a complete misunderstanding. No matter what anyone says, this child was the greatest sword on the continent and the morning star of the empire.
At this point, even if you seriously fight, you probably won’t be able to guarantee a match. At that time, Schlieffen, who was looking toward the sailboat, opened his mouth.
“Are you still coming? I thought it would stop if I cut one.”
“ok?”
Ronan shifted his gaze. The two remaining sailboats were rapidly approaching. The survivors were screaming and calling for rescue, but there was no sign of stopping.
It seemed that it was more urgent to take care of us than to save our comrades. Suddenly, a flash of light flashed in front of the two galleons. Whirly-! The whistling sound I heard a while ago spread in a chain.
“aha. Would you like to finish it?”
Ronan whistled. It looked right this time. Exactly twenty-three shells were flying through the wind.
A little while ago, it was a surprise attack, but there was nothing I couldn’t do to stop it. As he pulled the hilt of his sword, a red crescent moon was drawn across it. The sword shot in a fan shape intercepted the shells. Kwagwagwang! A barrier of fire and smoke appeared between the two galleons and Ronan. Shouts of bewilderment were heard all the way here.
“What the hell is that?!”
The barrier soon dissipated in the sea breeze. The galleons that got closer appeared.
I had no intention of giving him time to reload. Schlieffen, who immediately took a stance, swung his sword as if spraying. The blades of the wind that blew again struck the two galleons. bang! The upper sides of the obliquely cut ships sank into the sea as if sliding.
“It’s cooler than I thought.”
Ronan lowered the knife. I expected a little bit, but this wasn’t even at the level of warming up. At that moment, several black masses shot up like firecrackers over the sinking galleon.
“hmm?”
Feeling the presence, Ronan narrowed his eyes. Judging by the size, it didn’t look like a shell, but the sunlight was dazzling, making it difficult to identify.
The lumps flew in a near-vertical parabola and finally came close to being discernible. The two young men narrowed their eyes.
“…person?”
“I guess so.”
Heavily armed giants were falling like shooting stars. It was an unheard-of type of paratrooper.
All of them looked like they would not be safe if they bumped into each other. The giants who met eyes with the party burst into roars.
“You motherfuckers! I will kill you all!”
“In the name of Drahavie!”
Judging by the high-pitched voice, it seemed that he was quite agitated. Well, that was understandable since all the ships were sunk before they could do anything.
Suddenly, a tattoo on the head of a bald man caught my eye. I’ve definitely seen the engraving in the shape of a venomous dragon on the Aurora Skal.
Damn, they know how to turn into monsters. Ronan let out a light sigh and opened his mouth.
“Prepare. They are pretty strong guys.”
There seemed to be twenty people. There was nothing I couldn’t kill, but if I allowed it to crash into the ship in that state, this sleazy sloop wouldn’t last and would be destroyed.
It’s annoying, but I couldn’t. Still, if only the mast is restored somehow, itargand might be able to prevent it from collapsing from high blood pressure. If you cut everything into pieces and distribute the weight, you’ll be able to hold on.
“The key is to get rid of everything.”
“As long as there are no large lumps, it will be fine. The boat will get a little dirty, but it doesn’t matter.”
“I got it.”
Schlieffen understood the meaning and nodded. The blade that had turned into wind began to shake. The whirlwind of condensed blades was roaring, ordering something to be torn immediately.
He was definitely a smart guy. As Ronan grabbed the hilt of the sword, the scarlet color of the sunset came up the blade. It was the car he was about to get into action. The bodies of the giants who fell helplessly stopped in the air.
“Eh?”
Ronan and Schlieffen hesitated. It was as if a swarm of flies were caught in a spider’s web. Confusion erupted everywhere.
“My body can’t move…!”
“Cowards, what did you do!”
Judging by the reaction, it didn’t seem like that was their intention. Ronan, who suddenly confirmed that a shadow had fallen over his head, turned his head.
“mast?”
The mast, which had been broken, stood tall and restored. The ice emitting a mysterious chill was joining the parts that had been cut off by the shells.
“This…!”
Ronan’s eyes widened. It was crude, but it had regained its function as a mast. A terrified boy’s voice came from below.
“Hey! Stop yelling at the cow!”
Asher, who heard the shouts of the giants, shrugged. His left hand was stretched toward the sky. Schlieffen blinked dumbfounded. Ronan let out a laugh as if he was stunned.
“As expected, I picked one person well.”
“Ro Ronan! Got it!”
Asher exclaimed. Contrary to the weak appearance, it was a fearsome physical force. Besides, it occurred to me that he didn’t seem to be struggling much anymore, but in a way, he might be the strongest among us. Ronan praised him with a proud tone.
“Good job. Hold onto Asher as it is.”
“huh? like this…?”
It was the car Asher was trying to say. Ronan and Schlieffen, who quickly exchanged glances, swung their swords at the same time.
Red and blue swords were fired at the giants who stayed in the air. Without a moment’s hesitation, a surge of sword energy passed through their bodies. Chow! Blood and internal organs poured out like an explosion and poured over the heads of the young men. thud! Asher, who met eyes with the head that fell at his feet, screamed.
“Hee hee! Hahah! Whoaaaaagh!”
“Don’t spill it and hold it straight.”
“Wait a minute! Aww! The eyeballs went behind my back. Whose eyeballs!”
Asher struggled, but did not let go of his telekinesis. A one-sided slaughter followed. The green tusk warriors who even received the stamp died without even being able to properly deliver their final words, let alone transform.
“Such a coward… kuck!”
“Save… Heo Eok!”
“Draha… Kyaaaaaaaa!”
Hot blood soaked his head. A dizzying iron smell bloomed like wildfire. The sticky fresh blood pouring down like rain soaked the deck, the sail, and the bow, making this sloop a vessel more worthy of the name ‘red whirlwind’. The sound of a severed body part hitting the deck echoed like the sound of rain.
It was as Ronan expected. By cutting it into pieces to reduce its volume, the impact on the hull was definitely reduced. Of course, it wasn’t completely harmless, but Itargand would forgive a scratch like this. It’s a sail stained with blood, you just need to wash it.
The intestines that had escaped from the vessel called the body were shaking like ribbons on the mast. Within seconds, all but one of the assailants had been killed. The old man, alone in the air, struggled and shouted.
“Wait a minute! Please please save me!”
“Is that so?”
Ronan nodded. At the same time, the red spirit that shimmered on the blade subsided. Schlieffen, who was about to unleash the storm sword, opened his mouth.
“Are you trying to dig up information?”
“That’s it. Asher, please.”
“Huh uh uh huh…!”
Ronan told Asher to get the old man down. Asher, who was disgusting, released the magic that bound him. thud! The old man fell to the floor and groaned in pain.
“Ugh… ugh! What the hell are you…!”
“You don’t have to know that, old man. If you want to spend your old age with all your limbs intact, you’d better do what you know. Why did they attack us? What kind of dragon is this bastard called Drahavie… You know, something like that.”
“Gagging!”
said Ronan, trampling on his back. Although he was a wrinkled grandfather, he showed no mercy or manners to those who were seeking his life. The old man, struggling like a water bug, barely lifted his head.
“I’ll tell you everything…! So, get this foot off your feet. I can’t breathe.”
“good.”
“Thank you so much… Thank you very much.”
Ronan removed his feet. The old man, who had been watching, slowly got up. The engraving on the front of Mokwooldae stood out. You put it in a very strange place.
I thought it would be nice to collect information and go because time has been delayed. Didican said that the boss, Drahavie, goes back and forth between Adren and the outside world.
I don’t know, but if you’re in a position where you can get an imprint, there’s a good chance you know something. As life was put on the other side of the scale, he wouldn’t do any repair work. The old man who had been caressing his neck opened his mouth.
“As promised, I will tell you everything. I mean…”
“I mean?”
“I mean that…DIE!!”
Suddenly, the old man stretched out his arms and lunged at Ronan. The muscles of the whole body swelled and began to transform into a monstrous figure. The difference in size was so great that it seemed that they were trying to press down with their physiques.
“What’s up?”
Ronan tilted his head at the sudden action. I couldn’t understand. If you show the difference in skill like this, don’t you usually give in because your heart is broken?
Effortlessly dodging the attack, he swung his sword. A red line appeared on the old man’s left arm and left thigh. It was the moment when he confirmed that he had missed and turned around again. Chow ah! The old man’s left limb shot up into the air.
“Heh heh heh heh!!”
“Your happy old age is over. So why are you doing useless things?”
The single-legged old man fell face down, dripping with blood. Ronan stomped hard on the back of his neck again. This time, unlike before, the resistance was extreme. The old man, who had been twisting his body in spite of the excessive bleeding, exclaimed desperately.
“Get out of the way! I have to kill or capture you guys!”
“I think that would be difficult.”
“Even if you are captured alive! I am speaking for you! Otherwise…!”
It was the car the old man was trying to say. Suddenly, the mark on his neck began to glow. For an instant, despair crept across his wrinkled face. He grabbed his neck with both hands.
“Burr already…! That’s…”
The old man suddenly stopped talking and gave out a choking sound. The imprint of Mokwooldae was scattering green light. I didn’t feel very good about the speed of the flashing interval.
“If you don’t want to talk, get out of here!”
Ronan, instinctively aware of the threat, threw the old man overboard. It was the moment when the body, which had been flying like a shot put, fell into the sea. A mixture of green and purple smoke erupted from the inside of his features.
“Goooooh! Guess!”
The most ghastly screams I’ve heard today rang out. The gas that leaked from the nose and mouth as well as through the cracks in the rims of the eyeballs took on an ominous color that gave goosebumps.
“Ahhh! What is that?!”
“This.”
Asher and Schlieffen raised their eyebrows. The old man’s teeth were melting from the smoke. The pupils shrunk like dried persimmons and dug into the eye sockets.
The old man’s body eventually turned into a withered flower. Ronan, who grasped the situation, exclaimed urgently.
“Damn it is poison. Everyone cover your nose and mouth!”
“Ugh!”
He grabbed Schlieffen by the scruff of the neck and ran to Asher’s under the mast. Poisoning with a plate for which there was no proper antidote made matters worse. We had to get out of range before the ship was damaged.
The poisonous clouds stretched high into the sky without being scattered by the wind. Suddenly, a chilling feeling of incongruity grazed the nape of Ronan’s neck.
‘Wait… don’t they scatter?’
There was something strange about a simple self-destruct attack. The old man’s attitude before the open sea imprint was activated The clouds soaring high in the sky were glistening with conspicuous colors. As if to show it to someone. Ronan, who soon grasped the meaning, opened his mouth.
“Assel. get out of here.”
“Hey! uh huh?”
“Damn, I don’t have time. Try telekinesis or whatever.”
Ronan grabbed Asher’s shoulders with both shoulders. Asher, who was frightened, acted as instructed. An invisible force pushed the ship’s stern. A huge shadow rose over the distant jungles of the Pashanti Islands.
