Overpowered Sword - Chapter 242
Overpowered Sword Chapter 242
Level up with the sword (242)
The unreasonable reality came flooding back like a nightmare.
Even though the eight masters attacked with all their might, recovered from the damage without any hesitation.
No, even if I hadn’t recovered, it wouldn’t have meant much.
Even after several minutes of serial bombing, no damage was left on the ectoplasm of the ’s body. Because of the aftermath, the ground subsided by more than a hundred meters, but the massive body, which was over 500 meters long, only sank up to about its knees.
Nevertheless, the reason he showed ‘Divorce Law’ was to show off that the punitive force’s resistance was meaningless.
—It is not too late. Put down your sword, kneel and obey. Then you too will be saved.
There was not a single person who fell for the sophistry of .
However, there was nothing I could do about losing my will to fight after realizing the overwhelming difference in power.
Walter muttered, his eyes clouded with despair.
“The Clyde Empire was a country that should not have existed….”
You can’t win.
If that had been all it took, Walter might have met his end in a grave manner. Anyone who had reached the level of martial arts knew this.
Since you have made fighting your career, losing to someone and dying is also a natural ending. You can’t win and lose forever. One day, the day will come when you will lose and be cut.
However, what Walter was prepared for was his own death, not the destruction of the country he devoted his life to.
“Tch, can’t I just cut you to death yet?”
On the contrary, Cedric was indignant at the reality that his sword could not reach the 〈Evil King〉.
〈Chamsanjeol〉 is the power that can cut even spaces close to the realm of concepts and spirit bodies that do not exist in physical reality. If his capabilities were sufficient, there was no way he could not cut down even a demigod-level being.
Even if you release the power stored up in 〈Dine Life〉, the output will only increase several times, but the level will not increase.
Therefore, there is no chance of winning.
“Goddess, give me strength! “Have the courage not to back down!”
Ellahan and the two cardinals were disgusted by the evil in front of them, but they maintained their fighting spirit without taking a single step back.
The same was true for the Seongcheolsae Knights.
Even if I have to sacrifice my whole life, I want a better tomorrow than today.
For those who have lived with such beliefs, death or fear could not be the slightest delusion. Even this fight was because the Goddess of Heaven was looking down on them.
“…Your Highness, run away.”
The old knight murmured as he tightened his grip, thinking of Rian who would be watching this fight from afar. Gilbert, like Walter standing next to him, was in despair, but since he chose the path of a knight rather than a warrior, he raised his sword thinking only of his master’s safety.
If I could hold out here for a few more minutes, I could help Lian escape this cursed land.
“Ahaha, I knew it would be like this.”
Only Karen smiled in an atmosphere frozen with despair and determination.
If I was determined, I would have finished it a long time ago.
Karen had been anticipating the difficulty of this journey ever since she decided to exalt the name with the warrior. There was no way I was fighting an enemy that I could reasonably defeat, or faced with adversity that I could reasonably survive.
It was a story that seemed natural.
A true hero appears to solve the crisis that brings destruction to this land, and his opponent must be at least the level of a demon king.
“But the hero has the last laugh!”
Even though Karen knew that, she never lost her smile.
If it’s the Leon I’ve been watching until now, it’s the Leon who was able to move forward when everyone else had given up.
I was able to believe that there was no way I would give in to something like the ‘Death King’.
and.
“―Haaaaaab!”
Leon leaped into the air once again, drew up all remaining auras, and deployed the .
The golden cross’s sword light cut through the dug-up land several times, sinking several meters, and let out a roar.
—It’s trivial!
〈Devil King〉 paid no heed to the attack and laughed at Leon, then suddenly aimed at him and fired a beam of destruction.
Quaaaaaaaaaa!!
Leon immediately went into a defensive stance with the holy sword at the forefront.
The magnitude of the force is hundreds of times greater.
If you don’t fight it off, it will evaporate within seconds. No matter how strong the power is, if it is not processed like the , it will scatter like bubbles in front of the holy sword that symbolizes the natural order of this world.
Indeed, the destruction ray cut out Leon’s 100 meters in diameter into a round shape like a crater, but it could not hurt him.
“…Why are you repeating attacks that don’t work on me?”
Leon, standing in the very center of the crater, opened his mouth.
It was a reasonable question.
Destruction rays were not the only means of attack for .
—To make you acknowledge it.
“Admit it? what?”
〈Death King〉 answered the question as if it was obvious.
—If you are truly a warrior, then you are the courtesan’s favorite servant and the one who carries out her wishes. By surrendering your heart rather than taking your life by force, you will show the world that you are a righteous savior rather than a goddess.
“Ha, your dream is big. Even if I die, I have no intention of doing that?”
—Then attack until your castle is relieved. Make yourself realize how meaningless and insignificant the holy sword and power that that courtesan gave you are.
It was an extremely arrogant statement.
Like a human looking down at an ant, you cannot come out unless you are convinced that no matter how hard you struggle, you will not be able to overcome me.
It is a gaze completed as a transcendent person.
but.
“You idiot.”
Leon was not intimidated by that gaze and pulled in the corners of his mouth.
It had to be that way.
There was a separate reason for the Masters to focus their attacks only on the feet of the and for preventing him from moving freely through the Holy Law Barrier.
By the time he disparaged that paving stone as a pointless struggle, he had already committed an irreparable mistake.
“Hey Nex.”
Leon confidently raised his voice as he faced the gaze coming down from hundreds of meters in the air.
“If you still have memories as a human, you would know, right? “There is a long and complicated secret passage underground in the ecliptic Karelum.”
—What does that mean?
“Didn’t you hear from Morse? “In order to prevent us from entering the ecliptic, the evil cult released ‘things brought from an external dimension’ inside like sentinels.”
And the that Leon had shot a moment ago easily pierced dozens of meters of ground and smashed the being’s body.
Coo coo coo coo coo coo…!!
There is an old saying that even a tiger will come when told.
As if in response to Leon’s words, the quiet earth shook and everyone could feel an enormous presence rising from deep underground. A being who may be on par with the , or perhaps even higher.
〈Death King〉 was also shocked when he belatedly remembered its existence.
—Apophis?! That’s ridiculous! There’s no way the guy Morse summoned would dare attack me…!
“That would have made sense if you had remained human.”
It was a blind spot that even Morse had not considered in advance.
〈Death King〉 is a military spirit based on the soul of the Light Emperor Nex. There was no way that a being that took hundreds of thousands of souls as cells into its body and even fused with an extradimensional force could be recognized as the same person.
Moreover, the outer dimension that Apophis belonged to and the spirit world that he signed a contract with were completely different places.
A demigod-level being from an extradimensional space that invaded my territory.
From Apophis’ point of view, it was an inevitable target of hostility.
Kiaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!
Apophis, who finally broke through the ground and revealed himself, opened his eyes wide and looked around to find the person who had hit him.
Waves of scales made of darkness without a single reflected light.
Unlike a living being, a monster that appears as a god possesses a pair of glistening, murderous eyes. As if 〈Death King〉 was not enough, Apophis’ presence increased, and even the Holy Iron Chain Knights were on the verge of giving out.
It was right after that.
Kyaaaaa!!
Apophis realized that his territory had been invaded when he realized that the legs of the Demon King had fallen underground up to the knees.
At the same time, it attacked faster than sound and more stealthily than a shadow. Before the ‘Death King’ had time to react, a huge snake wrapped around his entire lower body.
Then they started pulling him down with absurd force.
—Ugh?! Can’t I let go of the oar! A snake brought from outer space…!
〈Necromancer〉 hastily moved both hands and grabbed Apophis’ body, but was unable to separate him. This was because Apophis’ tightening force was several times stronger than his grip.
When Leon saw that, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.
If Apophis had prioritized killing him even after seeing him, there was no way for him to survive.
‘Well, that couldn’t have happened.’
If Apophis and the are compared to ogres, Leon and the other masters are at the level of orcs no matter how high you put it. There was absolutely no possibility that Leon and the others would become hostile, leaving alone the ‘Death King’, who could pose a real threat.
The two transcendent beings began a battle in front of the punitive force that was speechless due to the sudden change in the situation.
Kyaoooooooooooooooooooo!
With a sharp roar, Apophis’ fangs are embedded in various parts of the ’s body and then pulled out. Although it was shabby compared to the main body of the sun god Ra, the poison of the adult Apophis was enough to kill even a low-level god.
Even the ‘Necromancer King’ made of ectoplasm could not be completely free from its toxicity.
-go away–!
While uttering three syllables, it emits a beam of destruction.
Apophis’s scales burned off and splattered with poisonous blood due to the tremendous wave of power, but he never let go.
A snake’s method of hunting is to restrain its prey with its body and slowly inject poison to suffocate it. This was especially true in situations where the area of activity was limited to the ground, as it is now.
〈Death King〉 was gradually dragged underground.
Unlike Nex, who became a transcendent but was unfamiliar with his body and power, Apophis was a monster located at the opposite pole of the sun god Ra.
Even if the output is a bit lacking, it can easily overpower anyone of the same level.
‘Not yet…not yet. Unless you wait a little longer.’
Leon watched the fight carefully and bided his time.
We must not allow Apophis to completely devour him.
If that monster were to be able to exist independently, it would be a disaster even more terrible than the Death King.
“–your majesty!”
It was then.
A familiar voice boomed from the distant sky.
“your majesty! “Can you hear me?”
Bishop Mors of Chaos, one of the exorcist bishops of the evil cult, has appeared. He left during the battle with Adela and his whereabouts are unknown. Who would have expected him to appear in this situation?
Next, as if answering Morse’s call, spoke.
The voice and hand gestures were truly earnest, like a child who finds himself in an unexpected predicament and is looking for an adult.
-Oh oh…! The Prime Minister! Welcome back. Help me take down this ruthless snake! Right Now!
“Your Majesty, it is difficult for me to untie Apophis with my own strength. However, Your Majesty can untie the restraints yourself!”
—Then tell me how! hurry!
Morse shouted without even looking at the punitive force.
“Separate your body into upper and lower bodies! You are giving up the part that was entangled by Apophis! Your Majesty is no longer mortal. The distinction between upper and lower body, and even the human shape, is nothing more than a stereotype that we have had since before! Separate the part captured by Apophis and reorganize your body with the remaining power!”
It was indeed accurate advice.
If that’s what he said, the ‘Devil King’ will be able to escape from Apophis and escape underground to avoid being captured again.
In that case, Apophis would not be able to chase down the ‘Dead King’ and would not fall for the same trick. Even in a state where he lost half, or even 80%, of his strength, the power of the was more than enough to overwhelm the punitive force.
The power lost during the escape process could be replenished by feasting on the soul.
After thinking about that, the complexions of Leon and his group turned pale.
‘No, if we don’t stop him now-‘
Just as Leon reflexively drew his sword and was about to fly.
—That can’t be possible!
Surprisingly, the ‘Devil King’ himself rejected Morse’s proposal.
Even Morse didn’t know that would happen, so his lips twitched.
why?
Everyone thought that way, regardless of enemy or enemy.
—This body belongs to the subjects who gave their lives to me! Jim is singular, but not singular! Even if it is destroyed by an external enemy, I will not allow it to be abandoned as a burden! Please suggest another way!
“What on earth are you talking about, Your Majesty?”
—What are you talking about? Isn’t it obvious!
The trauma inherent in the madness of 〈The King of Death〉 peels away the skin disguised as cool-headed reason.
Light Emperor Nex.
A vessel of sacred power that may have left a lasting mark in human history.
Its nature is undoubtedly that of the good. It may be twisted and twisted and crazy, but its faith is strong and does not know how to bend or bend.
—Parents should not abandon their children! A monarch must not abandon his subjects! I am utopia! The merciless goddess is the savior of those torn apart by the sword of fate!
Morse realized it too late.
〈Death King〉 is crazy.
No, he was crazy. It was the same when he was Emperor Gwang, but the level became even worse. To the extent that Morse, who as the head of Chaos could calculate even madness like an abacus, could not read it.
Madmen and madmen cannot communicate.
This is because madness is different for each individual, so although there may be intersections, the crucial part is ultimately misaligned.
Was that why?
-Right. Now that I think about it, you are also my subject and benefactor who made me so great. There should be a proper reward!
“Ugh!? Your Majesty! Please reconsider—”
The madness of the was one step ahead of Morse’s prediction.
A huge arm stretched out towards Mors, who was floating hundreds of meters in the air. There was no time for Morse to do anything other than dodge. The ’s body moved at the same speed as his will.
A grip made of ectoplasm grabbed the creature and brought it into its wide open mouth.
gulp.
I swallowed it in one mouthful.
