Overpowered Sword Chapter 86
Level up with swords (86) His
attitude may have seemed arrogant, but the giants actually shouted as if they were excited by his spirit.
“Brave! “You are an example of a warrior!”
“You know how to say nice things about humans!”
“Don’t fall down until it’s your turn!”
The Titans were a race that had no choice but to be strong from birth.
Already the body of an ogre at the top of the food chain, he further trained his blessed body and even possessed the wisdom to learn martial arts that were the exclusive preserve of mankind.
From the Titans’ point of view, it was simply an attempt to repay the favor they had received from the goddess and to carry out their mission more smoothly.
However, strength beyond the standard brings fear.
All races feared the Titans.
Even the dragon, who pursued moderation, was wary of them leaving the mountain range, and when he tried to place a seal on the Giant King, he was beaten until he was reduced to a rag and chased away.
But look at this small, brave human!
Don’t you dare say that you will take on the Titans one by one, without taking a single step back!
“Start from the left, then it’s my turn!”
As Leon nominated, a giant escaped from the group.
The physique itself was not much different from other giants, but the sleek muscles and weapons in hand were unique.
Bong (棒).
That was the stick called the ‘quarter staff’.
[haha! A dangerous guy appeared from the first game. Are you scared?]
‘Of course.’
Basically, the superiority or inferiority of a weapon technique depends on the gap between them.
A sword is stronger than a dagger, and a spear is stronger than a sword.
When entering the realm of , it was not absolute due to its efficiency, but it still had a significant impact.
And the quarter staff was the closest weapon to the strongest in that gap.
Even if you don’t have a blade, if you hit it, your bones will break, and even if you can’t pierce it, if you stab it well, it will burrow into your internal organs. There was no need to say more if that power was in the hands of the transcendent Titans.
‘I don’t know if the technique is very clumsy…’
Leon’s eyes quickly scanned the giant’s body.
Seeing is worth hearing.
As the saying goes, the body is much more talkative than you think. Center of gravity, stride, contraction and relaxation of breathing muscles. There were more than one or two things that could be seen just by looking at the surface.
Above all, just looking at the hand holding the baton showed that it was covered in calluses.
‘Is it more than a skilled or less than a master?’
It’s powerful.
His movements were a little loose, perhaps because he had little experience dealing with human-sized creatures, but the gaps would soon be filled as the fight progressed.
As a rule of thumb, the length of the pole is about 5 meters.
It is a road similar to the pike for intercepting cavalry.
A gap that can only be bridged by taking three steps. There are degrees of unfairness, and at this level you can only laugh.
“It’s Leon.”
“It’s Ghaul.”
After making a full statement, he walks away without saying any more.
There was nothing to do with my mouth anymore.
Humans and Titans.
The two warriors raised their weapons exactly 20 meters apart. The distance was quite disadvantageous for Leon, but there was no advantage to starting closer.
When the atmosphere in the room became more and more tense, the tension swelled as if it would explode if pricked once with a needle.
“start!”
Chief Balkan’s shout pushed the two warriors back.
Whoops!
Naturally, it was Ghaul’s stab with an overwhelming distance that opened the curtain on the struggle.
A two-handed stab, which is the basic of basics.
The blunt end of the pole distorted like a haze and shot out like lightning through the afterimage. Leon’s body was thrown back several meters along with the holy sword that reflexively blocked his path.
“Ugh…!”
I’m out of breath.
Even after losing more than half of the impact, if you were hit directly, you would be immediately incapable of fighting. The blood that flowed from Leon’s grasp, which barely managed to maintain his balance, wetted the handle of the holy sword.
My palm was torn off with one blow.
The Holy Sword, which is still humming, proves the impact.
‘Fast and strong. There is no chance of winning in an honest fight.’
But Leon raised his sword and took a step forward.
It’s strong, but not so strong that it can’t be shed.
It’s fast, but not invisible.
Fundamentally, martial arts is meant to fight against the strong. One or two unfavorable conditions can be overcome.
Taaaang!
Strike the baton coming down from above your head diagonally.
My wrists and elbows are numb, but I can bear it.
The only thing you have to watch out for is stinging.
The destructive power of that single point was beyond what he could handle. Even if I blocked it well, my whole body was creaky, so if I failed to throw it away, I was certain that my shoulder would be dislocated or the ligaments would be torn.
Taaang! earth! Taaang! Taaaang!
I cut it out and I cut it out and I cut it out again.
This repeated hitting was the scary thing about the bong.
Unlike a spear or sword, it has no blade and has a flat center of gravity, so it can attack and defend with any part of the body. If you block and dodge using the bounce force, the movement will continue with the next attack using that inertia.
However, if you step back or try to take a big hit,
‘-It’s coming!’
Gaul grabbed the pole with both hands and rotated his body.
sting.
It is said that the stabbing of a master, the basic and strongest technique of long arms, can pierce an iron plate even with the blunt end of the stick.
Wedge!
A baton that penetrates sound with an eerie sound.
The straight trajectory was simple, but it contained the power to crush everything that stood in its way.
However, that power is meaningless if it does not hit the target.
Leon’s body, moving one beat ahead, diagonally avoided the bar. Deliberately leave an opening for a thrust and enter the opponent’s gap. Ghaul was not an opponent that could be defeated without risk.
‘Two steps forward.’
Leon’s eyes sparkled as he calmly closed the distance.
The point where the advantages and disadvantages arising from the gap between humans and titans were overturned was just two steps ahead.
Just because you have a big body doesn’t mean it’s all good.
If you jump into its arms, a human with relatively fast rotation can overwhelm a giant. The problem for most was that they would be destroyed before then, but Leon decided that it was quite possible.
“Oooooooooooooooh—!”
Ghaul roared loudly towards Leon, who had taken a step closer, and began to rapidly rotate the baton he was holding with both hands.
For some reason, I had a bad feeling.
Even though the stab missed only once, it sent a shiver down my spine.
An instinctive warning in a different area from number reading stimulated him.
‘You made a mistake, Ghaul!’
Nevertheless, Leon dug one step further.
The power of the rapidly rotating rod is terrifying, but its instantaneous speed and trajectory are clearly visible when viewed in the Anbeop.
After passing through the afterimage of the rod rotating three or four times per second, Leon approached Gaul and left with only one step left. The difference was between the martial arts of the Titans, which were looser in spacing combat than humans, and the body movements refined with Roderick’s footwork.
“It’s scary! “You’re faster and more stealthy than a thunder leopard!”
When the rotation of the baton failed to stop Leon, Ghaul widened the gap between his hands with an expression of great admiration.
The intention is to seal the attack and win the game with a quick single strike.
It was the norm when dealing with long weapons and swords at close range.
‘It’s here.’
The body that had crossed the line of fire several times responded.
It’s time to up the ante.
Leon raised his auror without a moment of hesitation.
“Haaaaaap!”
Accelerate. As the blood flow in the body flows at eight times the speed, the eyes turn red and the muscles remain greatly swollen.
Leon is an Aura user who has entered the advanced level.
The efficiency and limits of physical strengthening are incomparable to before. Right now, it would have been possible to meet Ghaul’s single attack from the front and break through it with force.
Kaang!
In the first collision between the baton and the sword, the baton was pushed away.
When Gaul, embarrassed, took half a step back, Leon took a half step forward and lowered his blade in a bold manner.
A sword pressure that cannot be ignored even by the body of a Titan.
Whoops!
Ghaul’s arm, which had hastily brought up the baton, was thrown away.
“What?!”
The shock of losing in a power struggle with a human and the shock of showing his weakness took over him.
A hesitation of less than a second in time.
At that moment, Leon took one more step and swung his sword.
Ka-ga-ga-ga-gang!
The afterimages of the sword and the baton become entangled and sparks fly. The blood and sweat that flowed from the bodies of the two warriors rose like steam as they exchanged dozens of blows in about 10 seconds.
The balance of victory had long since tilted.
One person retreats and the other pursues.
The more the sum was divided, the more the balance collapsed, and eventually the defense of the retreating side began to lag by half a beat.
and.
Keying.
As the swinging baton struck the air, the blade that penetrated the gap came to rest in front of Ghaul’s neck.
The match was decided.
Leon, who took three steps forward, won.
“That’s it! “Human warrior Leon’s victory!”
When Balkan declared so, the silent giants cheered.
“awesome! “Both were good fights!”
“The strength of this little friend is so great that he can push Ghaul’s baton from the front!”
“Why don’t we try metalworking together at the Hell Hall!”
The giants were completely excited after seeing a good fight for the first time in a long time.
Even in the depths of the Titan Mountains, there were few beings who could be called their opponents. Even wyverns and ogres were no match for a titan in a one-on-one fight, so only their compatriots or the S-rank monsters that occasionally appeared could make their blood boil.
However, a human warrior who was neither a Titan nor an S-rank monster defeated one of his compatriots.
“As expected, human martial arts are profound. “I still have a lot to learn.”
“Not only did he throw away Ghaul’s baton, but his gait wasn’t simple either. “It was a much more delicate movement than ours.”
“Tch, I want to have a fight with that warrior too! “I hope it’s my turn soon!”
Aside from being simply excited, there were also giants who discussed the principles of nothingness. They were the type of giants who had some understanding that being fast and strong wasn’t everything.
sword and baton.
Humans and Titans.
The result of so many different conditions colliding with each other, and the disadvantaged winning, can be said to be the profundity of nothingness.
“Next is me, warrior! “Do you need some rest?”
When Ghaul, who paid his respects to Leon, stepped back, the giant came out quickly behind him and slammed his fists together.
Studded leather gloves.
It must have been made of a monster with a level of danger higher than A-rank, and it seemed several times harder and more dangerous than a regular metal gauntlet. I don’t know if I can cut that thing with the or not.
“…Just take a breath and let’s get started right away.”
“Hahaha! good night!”
The giant laughed in satisfaction at Leon’s answer and shouted.
“My name is Karok! “He is the one who pulled out the head of the Cyclops and killed the Basilisk with both fists!”
“It’s Leon.”
“I ask for a good fight!”
Recovering his lost stamina with a few minutes of rest, Leon lifted the holy sword once again.
How many more people can I deal with from now on?
The body that received Ghaul’s stab was throbbing, and the blood vessels were tingling all over the place as a result of excessive acceleration. It wasn’t even an excuse for not taking out the ‘Auror Weapon’. This was because the other party did not use any aurors at all. And if you get to that level, your life will be at stake in Dalian, which is not a matter of life or death.
“Please come.”
“Goes!”
Soon, Karok, with both arms raised, charged at him roughly, and Leon took a bull stance to counter the charge.
It was immediately after that that they clashed.
* * *
“Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu her herself…”
A wailing sound naturally came out of Leon’s mouth as he lay on the bed.
I feel like dying.
No joke, I almost died more than once. As a result of giving in to his boiling desire to win, Leon had to constantly spar with as many as eleven giants.
The giants did not use Aurors, and Leon fought with his Aura Weapon and other killing weapons sealed.
However, the Titans’ offensive power was fearsome even without Aurors.
[Is it 4 wins and 7 losses? Those are miserable odds.]
El Cid chuckled as he looked down at his features.
[You should have realized that you are no more accustomed to their spacing than the Titans are to your spacing. If only he had paid more attention to that part, he would have won 6 times.]
“Ugh, I guess I let my guard down a bit after winning the first match…”
[Tsk tsk tsk.]
Perhaps he was trying to annoy Leon, El Cid even clicked his tongue on purpose and pushed him. .
[Wasn’t the fourth fight the most ugly one you lost? The opponent went in fearlessly because he missed the sword, but fell over with one kick.]
“Aaaah! “Don’t remind me!”
Leon, probably reminded of his own shameful behavior, fell face down on the floor of the bed and cried out.
The Titans’ bodies themselves are the greatest weapons of all.
As a result of being immersed in sword fighting and forgetting about it, Leon ended up giving up the fight he had won by kicking. It was an ending that was no different from a lucky punch, so much so that even the giant who kicked it was embarrassed.
“Who on earth taught those monsters martial arts in the first place? It’s against the law to use techniques at that weight class in the first place.”
I was just about to gain confidence after months of training, but after experiencing today’s continuous sparring, that feeling was instantly broken.
Although he is several levels ahead in terms of martial arts, when he starts fighting, he is either equal or at a disadvantage. Leon had to realize the unreasonable gap in his body eleven times.
On rare occasions, a grumbling sound comes out of his mouth.
however.
[Huh?]
El Cid tilted his head at what I said without expecting an answer.
[Oh, didn’t I tell you?]
“What?”
[It was 300 years ago, but I was the first to teach martial arts to giants.]
“…What?”
Leon’s mouth dropped open at the unexpected sound.
