Academy’s Genius Swordmaster - Chapter 72
[ 72. Blood hook (4) ]
#72
“Well…don’t think of anyone surviving.”
A scroll unfolded. A thick mana barrier rose up and blocked the entrance to the banquet hall. Grabbing the hilt, Ronan ran out toward the vampires.
The distance narrowed in an instant. The vampire acting as the vice-captain shouted in a confused voice.
“Damn it, kill it!”
Some vampires, regaining their sanity, raised their arms and aimed at Ronan. It was intended to contain magic. At that time, the vampire who was chanting the spell sat down vomiting blood.
“Blood arrow…gagging!”
In succession, other vampires also failed casting and suffered seizures. The vice-captain shook the fallen vampire’s shoulder and asked.
“What’s wrong with everyone?!”
“I can’t gather Ma Mana…!”
The vice-captain’s eyes widened. In fact, the banquet hall’s mana was either scattered or reversed before it materialized into magic. He belatedly realized the existence of the mana-disturbing objects prepared to deal with Jarodine. The vice-captain gritted his teeth and shouted.
“Someone damn it, go and get rid of that damn thing!”
It was as if he had completely fallen for his tricks. A few vampires in the rear ran into the banquet hall. It was at this moment that he turned his head again. hooked! Ronan approached while cutting the two before he knew it, and put La Mancha in the mouth of the vice-captain.
“Quaaaaagh!”
The vice-captain screamed. However, instead of backing down, he rushed at Ronan, chewing on the sword as if swallowing it. The tip of the sword protruding through the back of the head was stained with blood and brains. Ronan frowned.
“They fight like shit.”
“human!!”
Vice-captain Vampire swung his arm. The claws bristling like spears were weapons in themselves. Ronan, who lowered his head to avoid it, raised his sword diagonally. La Mancha slipped out of the head, gently slicing through the jawbone and brain skull. The vice-captain let out a groan.
“You won’t die from a wound like this!”
“okay?”
Ronan turned La Mancha around and fixed it. He slashed 15 times into the vice-captain’s face, each in a different direction. His tattered face was covered with red lines. puck! The moment Ronan kicked him in the chest, dozens of pieces of his head exploded like flowerpots.
“Gew…!”
The fluttering body drooped. Kwajak! Ronan said while crushing a bone fragment of an unknown part with his heel.
“Looks like he’s dead.”
The pieces of flesh that formed the head were only wriggling and were not restored. It was one of the know-how I realized in my previous life. If replaying it is a headache, you can cut it to the point where regeneration is impossible.
“Vice vice-captain!”
Following the captain, he was promoted to the vice-captain. The eyes of the vampires around them widened. Ronan immediately lunged at a female vampire standing nearby. When confusion and fear prevailed, the number had to be reduced as much as possible. squeak. Her arms flew into the air at Ronan’s slash, which flew without delay.
“Kyaaaaaagh!”
Blood spattered. Her beautiful face was distorted like a demon. It wasn’t bad to make porridge like the vice-captain just before, but unfortunately, that was too troublesome.
Ronan pulled a stake from his waist and lifted it. Just as he was about to drive a stake through her chest, two handsome vampires blocked Ronan’s path.
“You don’t even know chivalry to surprise a lady?”
“Then you died.”
Ronan twisted. He stabbed the limb in his left hand into the vampire’s chest as it was. hooked! The moment the stake pierced his heart, the vampire’s whites turned black.
“Heh uh uh…!”
“What is chivalry, filthy monster bastard…”
The vampire impaled on a stake fell over. It was an instant death with nothing more to look at. Suddenly, the sound of a cold wind rang in my ears. Ronan twisted his head. Wedge! A violent slash passed by Ronan’s cheek.
“Did you avoid this?”
A look of bewilderment appeared on the other vampire’s face. A sharp saber was clutched in his hand. Although the decorations were unnecessarily loud, it seemed like a pretty good sword.
Come to think of it, what swordsmanship do mosquitoes use? Ronan, who was curious for nothing, used the 1 second formula of the imperial swordsmanship. Kang! A vertical slash hit the saber.
“Keugh!”
The vampire’s posture was disturbed at once. Although he had excellent physical abilities, it was clear that he had never wielded a sword before. Awesome! Ronan, who clicked his tongue as if he was pathetic, blew his throat at once. At the same time, a stake was driven into the crumbling body.
“Eh, the knife is not worth it.”
“What the hell are you…?”
The female vampire muttered in a terrified voice. She was still regenerating the lower elbow. Instead of answering, Ronan waved his arm. Fuck! A stake flew in a silvery straight line and pierced her heart. The vampires that were rushing at them stopped in place.
“Drina!”
“It’s not a magician’s move…!”
“Damn it, not in close combat. Is it still far?”
In less than five minutes, about half were incapacitated. It was the first time since the bloody hook was founded. Ronan, who straightened his posture, pointed the tip of his sword at them.
“Don’t you think about going back alive?”
It was the moment Ronan tried to run again. From behind came shouts of joy.
“done! Unlocked!”
“Damn it finally!”
Suddenly, the faces of the vampires brightened. Ronan raised his eyebrows.
‘clear? What do you mean unlocked?’
“Ha ha ha! You are done now!”
A vampire with a scar on his face shouted. Suddenly, Ronan noticed that the scattered mana started to flow normally again. Seeing the mana gathering in their hands, Ronan twitched his lips.
“aha.”
“Blood Spear.”
A spear made of blood flew towards Ronan. Ronan dodged the attack by rolling to the side. Before he even stood up, a bloody arrow flew past Ronan’s shoulder blades.
“Umm…!”
It seemed that the mana-disrupting objects had been dealt with. Airborne has been reversed. The vampires attacked Ronan, swinging, throwing, and exploding weapons made of blood.
The scary thing about blood magic was that attacks could be continuously derived from bloody spots. In some ways it was similar to Schlieffen’s Stormblade.
When the stray blood formed a puddle on the floor, the attack continued in such a way that thorns and arrows would spring up again. The excited vampires burst into madness.
“Ahaha! Running away is like a rat!”
“Do you think you won?”
However, being able to use magic didn’t mean there were only good things. Ronan laughed. The vampire who was shooting bloody arrows frowned.
“what?”
“We also have a kid who uses magic.”
It was then. All blood magic projectiles flying toward Ronan stopped in the air. It was as if time had stopped. The vampire’s face hardened.
“What is it?”
“Why is this?”
Wow! All of a sudden, the shapes of the projectiles collapsed and transformed into drops. Then, he began to be sucked into a corner of the banquet hall.
The vampires turned their heads at the same time. A strange creature I had never seen in my life was crouching with four wings clinging to a torchlight.
“Subtract.”
All of the blood was being absorbed into Sheeta’s body. It was the car they were about to shout. Tadadadang! Sheeta’s wings spread and hundreds of spheres of blood shot towards the vampires.
“Aagh!”
A high-speed orb pierced their bodies. Torn bones and flesh soared into the air. It wasn’t fatal, but I couldn’t move. The bleeding caused by the bullets was absorbed by Sheeta again and flew back as bullets.
“I’m paying the right price.”
“Beep!”
Ophelia seemed to have taught her well. Raising the corner of his mouth, Ronan rushed towards the vampires again. He knew that Sheeta’s bullets were aimed precisely at the vampire.
-Hook!
“Oooh!”
-Hook!
“Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
Ronan walked around the banquet hall and inserted stakes into the chests of the vampires who were becoming beehives. The seeds that were sometimes overripe were diced with La Mancha, whose anticipation had reached its limit. The vampires, noticing that Seunggi had completely lost their strength, turned their backs and began to run away.
“Run away too!”
“The entrance is blocked!”
The barrier blocking the entrance was still there. Even if he shot blood magic or bitten off, there was no scratch. In a way, it was natural. It was high magic prepared to tie Jarodine’s feet.
Fuck! At that time, a silver stake flew from behind and pierced the back of the vampires. Vampires whose hearts were precisely penetrated died without even screaming in agony.
“…Is it almost done?”
Ronan stretched. There were no more moving vampires to be seen. The two that had just died seemed to be the last.
“This bastard is still sleeping and sleeping.”
Zwei had passed out with his limbs severed. During the fight, the section was burnt with a torch, so regeneration was slow. Fuck! Ronan kicked him in the stomach. Zwei, who flew to the wall and collided with it, raised his head.
“Kuk kuh heo heo…! How did this happen…”
“Can you come to your senses?”
Ronan laughed. Zwei’s face became contemplative as he looked around. Silver stakes were driven deep into the corpses of the members scattered here and there. Zwei, who came to his senses belatedly, screamed.
“Ah…aaaa…!”
There was no one alive except himself. Ronan crouched down and pointed a silver stake at Zwei’s neck.
“Take out the essence of fresh blood.”
It was a dry voice, devoid of any emotion. Zwei, who spat in Ronan’s face, let out a cursed cry.
“You cursed bastard! I will definitely tear you to pieces! Hell’s deepest…”
Ronan wiped the spittle from his face. He silently drove the stake into Zwei’s thigh. hooked Mogol-sang screams echoed through the banquet hall.
“Kkeaaaaaaaagh!”
“Take out the essence of fresh blood.”
The wound burned and stained black. Zwei did not answer. Ronan sighed and stabbed him in the left eye with a stake. The body without limbs jumped up like a fish.
“Kyaaaaagh! Aagh!”
“The essence of fresh blood. take it out.”
“What the hell did you do until it got to this point!”
“what?”
“Damn you made it clear. Help me catch Jarodine Stonesong! But why why…!”
Suddenly, Zwei said something incomprehensible. Ronan tilted his head. Did the stake stab you in the brain? It was the moment when Ronan pulled out the stake that was stuck in his eye.
“…Fuck.”
An incomparably stronger killing force hit Ronan. He noticed that Zwei’s gaze was looking back instead of at him.
Ronan slowly turned his head. Except for the bloody water everywhere and the corpses of mosquitoes inside, nothing else was visible. Only the three people who had been captured as a meal by the vampires were lying on the table and moaning. Suddenly, Sheeta’s feathers all over her body bristled.
“Palaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!”
The blood that had been sprinkled in the banquet hall was being absorbed into Sheeta’s body. The four wings were vibrating rapidly as if preparing something. Ronan’s eyes widened.
“Sita?”
“Hyaaaaaagh!”
A magic circle appeared in front of Sheeta. Before Ronan had time to say anything, the orb that had been launched shot towards the stone table. Wow! The compressed blood exploded and created a red cloud.
“Hey man, what are you doing all of a sudden…”
Ronan was about to say something. The thick cloud of blood lifted and a human form appeared. A man with a sack over his head was sitting on the table. A gloomy voice echoed through the banquet hall.
“Disappointing.”
Ronan unknowingly grabbed the stake. He noticed at once that it was the author who was spouting murder. After catching his breath, Ronan opened his mouth.
“…What are you?”
It was definitely one of those who had been caught as prey. The man slowly turned his head towards Ronan. Red eyes were shining through the thin sack. The voice rang out again.
“That is what I want to ask. FALSE. Where is Jarodine?”
Ronan didn’t answer. The man got up. The ropes that bound his hands and feet were soon undone. Zweiyi muttered in a voice mixed with bewilderment.
“Is it fake? is that?”
“I’m sorry for expecting you. The kids said they were going to make Jarodin into their group, so I followed him because I was curious…”
“Damn it, answer me! That monster is fake?!”
The man who ignored Zwei stepped forward. Ronan grabbed the hilt. A sense of intimidation, as if facing a natural phenomenon rather than a living thing, weighed down his whole body.
‘Because I’m out of luck…’
Ronan gritted his teeth. It was almost the same feeling as when dealing with Brygia. Then a familiar voice came from my ear.
“Back off. It’s not something we can handle.”
“what?”
Chow! At that moment, a dark blue hemisphere covered the man walking by. The blood and shadows that rose from all sides turned into knives and pierced the hemisphere. Finally, a huge mouth of shadows engulfed the hemisphere.
“…Ophelia?”
This whole process happened in less than 2 seconds. Ronan turned his head. Ophelia, who said she couldn’t come, was standing next to him. With her eyes wide open, she was aiming at the spot where the man had been standing.
“huh.”
“Why are you here? Since when have you been here?”
“I was worried, so I followed you from the beginning. Rather than that, take the essence of fresh blood and run away.”
The way he spoke was completely different from usual. Ophelia’s red eyes flashed, and there was not the slightest complacency to be found on her face. she muttered, biting her lip.
“Why is that man in a place like this…”
“Who is that?”
“Balzac von Warsaw. He is the younger brother of the Grand Duke of Shadow.”
“The Shadow Duke?”
I’ve heard what she said. It was definitely the name mentioned when teaching sitta. Ophelia compared Sheeta’s talent to the childhood of the Grand Duke of Shadow.
“huh. Dominating the night world…”
Ophelia was about to say something. Wow! Suddenly, the floor exploded and a black shadow shot up into the air. There was no gap to intercept. A man wearing a sack landed in front of the two.
