Regressor of the Fallen Family - Chapter 379
Episode 379
“What kind of look in your eyes…”
Even at that moment, his superhuman vision accurately captured the enemy general’s distorted expression.
The enemy commander also seemed to have good eyesight worthy of his name. It felt like flames were pouring out of the eyes that were staring directly at him.
“Don’t worry, Sir Amil. Although he is not as good as me, his sword spirit is definitely not normal. It will be a burden to go to the front.”
Bourdel, listening to Shingeom’s words with one ear, continued to shoot arrows.
I know it without having to hear it. No matter how much you are a sword soul or the best sword on the continent, this distance is your distance.
– Sir is the best archer in our kingdom and on the continent. Able to change the battlefield faster than anyone else.
– Please be patient. When the war begins, your name will heat up the entire continent. And I will definitely reward you for your patience.
Bourdelle recalled the words of the monarch who had led him to the heights of superhumanity and promised him wealth and fame.
He did not have absolute loyalty to the king like the rest of his party. I only joined McLine out of gratitude and half anticipation of a bright future.
But even if it’s just to achieve the future you so desire.
‘I need to clearly show my abilities.’
So, all you have to do is simply ignore the Continent First Sword that is staring at you from a distance that you cannot reach.
‘No, it is no longer the best sword on the continent.’
Bourdelle grinned openly as if showing off his sword spirit and repeatedly targeted the knights wearing armbands. The red lightning, fired three at a time, changed direction in the air according to his will and pierced the target.
of course.
‘…If he gets close, you should jump out.’
I didn’t forget to check the exit route from time to time. Additionally, make sure you have comrades who will protect you in case of emergency.
“King… Aran.”
“Don’t worry, Sir Amil.”
Eilen, who was standing behind Bourdel, smiled confidently.
Egon Miller, commander of the Western 1st Corps. And although he may not have recovered from his injuries yet, Sword Soul is one of the strongest on the continent.
Although it was a formidable opponent, Eilen felt as if she had been waiting for a fight with superhumans whose reputations were prominent on the continent.
However, Shingeom could not smile even when he saw that scene.
Except for the northern wall, where they had the upper hand in the previous conflict, one more person was deployed to the south and west, and two more adepts were deployed only to the eastern wall. Even if the effect of the Great Heavenly Barrier disappears, it is not a force that can be easily broken down.
Moreover, thanks to the unexpected and unique power of the Auror user archer, Chojeon was gaining the upper hand.
Propaganda that has already exceeded expectations.
But I couldn’t be completely optimistic.
“Even if it is a sword spirit, there is a saying that Egon Miller’s slash can split even an Auror Blade like tofu. He is a strong man who has a reason for being in charge of the Western 1st Corps.”
“it’s okay.”
What is okay?
The person called Aran, no matter how highly regarded he was, was not above an intermediate level Auror user.
On the other hand, Egon Miller is a powerful upper-level Auror user. Moreover, that sharp Auror Blade had absolute offensive power regardless of compatibility.
In addition, it appears to be disguised with magic, but looking at the body pattern that can be sensed, this person named Aran…
‘No, now is not the time to judge men and women.’
Shingeom, a man from the Seongguk who had no choice but to be more conservative than Grandia of the past due to his religious nature, sighed and opened his mouth again.
“Did I not explain it properly? Let me say it again, Egon Miller…” “I
‘ve heard enough. Please believe me. If everything goes as planned, we can definitely block the eastern wall. Just in case, we can catch the sword spirit who has not fully recovered. “If we can accumulate shock, future battles will be even more advantageous.”
Maybe it’s because they come from a small kingdom. I had too much confidence.
Or…
‘They say he’s a hidden superhuman, but he probably doesn’t have much experience.’
It was too dangerous to send a frog in a well, who had no idea how big the world was, into the battlefield. However, since this was not the time to forcefully discipline him, his eyes could not help but darken.
‘The limits of this battlefield are clear…’
The expected future was not that bright. Harmon had no choice but to think of the worst case scenario.
While he was lost in his thoughts, Aran’s voice woke him up.
“We’ll be climbing the castle wall soon. Please step back, Captain.”
There would be nothing quite as funny as going out to raise the morale of your allies and then being killed.
Haman nodded to Aran’s words and took heavy steps to the back of the castle wall.
Meanwhile, Bourdelle’s propaganda continued.
As a result.
“I’ll kill you! You rat!”
Egon Miller, with a red face, appeared in front of them.
‘also! There is no new sword!’
Egon Miller rolled his eyes as soon as he climbed the castle wall.
He was the superhuman who saw the fierce battle between the sword spirit and the divine sword last time up close. That’s why I couldn’t help but feel a sense of fear as I was overwhelmed by the strangely powerful strength.
– It’s bravado. If our military gets close, the new sword will disappear. Be proactive.
Therefore, I couldn’t help but feel nervous about the sword spirit’s words. If you were so confident, I would dare to say that Your Excellency should take the lead.
The violent, angry shouts were also close to bravado to overcome the fear.
However, after confirming that the most dangerous squire was not there, Egon Miller poured all his emotions into the archer in front of him.
“Dude!!”
A vulgar shout that does not befit the brilliant obscurity of an imperial corps commander and count. It was a struggle to reject the weakness and shame within himself that he had not recognized while reigning as an absolute powerhouse for decades.
With that struggling shout, the Auror Blade, which was said to cut off everything, was swung fearfully with the force of cutting off even that shame.
Wow!
Despite his expectations, what blocked Egon’s path with an earth-shattering roar was not a subtle archer, but a single red pillar.
“Pfft!”
“Ugh!”
Egon, who had been pushed out, barely managed to get his feet on the edge of the castle wall and raised his head. What he saw before his eyes was a young boy with a slim body that looked small even for a knight.
Of course, the sword held out in front of him and the auspicious red light covering his entire body proved that he was not just a kid, but to Egon, it was just an obstacle that maximized his anger.
‘The guy who can’t even control his aura and just keeps giving it away!’
Grinding his teeth, Egon kicked the ground and swung his sword horizontally, using the momentum of his rush.
The Auror Blade, threatening to cut down everything, stretched out over 5 meters.
A slash that puts two enemies in front of you within range at the same time.
It seemed like he was wasting too much power against fellow Auror users, but he was confident.
His characteristic is ‘disconnection’, which cuts off even the same Auror. It was only because I was caught off guard a little while ago and hit the face of the sword rather than the blade.
That’s what I thought.
but.
Hahaha!
With a loud roar, a crude red auror that looked more like a club than an auror blade blocked his slash again.
“her!?”
Egon’s face hardened at the incomprehensible situation.
‘It’s not just a kid!’
The moment he stopped, feeling a chill in his chest, three streaks of red lightning rushed towards him from behind.
The red arrow was not a threat at all at long distances, but felt quite fast at close range.
However, the level of advanced Auror user was not easily achieved.
“It’s funny…!”
Ride!
“…Mara!”
His sword, which moved late, struck down the rushing arrows at once, narrowing the distance.
One thing became clear from the experience just now.
‘A bow player must be good at beginner level.’
It’s not worth worrying about.
This time, his auror blade, which had shrunk to a large extent but was more condensed, emitted a much more brilliant light than before and vertically cut the lanky guy blocking his path.
Wow.
An exhilarating shock followed by a dull touch. Egon was embarrassed by that unfamiliar feeling and took a step back again.
“Where on earth did it come from…!”
It was only when I heard my own voice that came out without thinking that I was able to calm my anger and come to my senses.
‘okay. ‘Where on earth did two superhumans suddenly appear?’
“A sword that cuts and cuts? It’s nothing special.”
The sight of the enemy provoking him with a relaxed expression actually restored his calm.
There is no way that Seongguk is a hidden superhuman. If that were the case, he would have already appeared in the first match.
If he were to appear now, he would be a superhuman who had received support from somewhere nearby. It seemed like he had belatedly joined the battlefield, avoiding the bloody surveillance network.
But its appearance was very unfamiliar. If he had the skill to block his own slashes, he would never be a nameless one…
Egon aimed his sword at the ‘enemy’ with cautious eyes.
“Where are you guys from?”
“Seongguk.”
“Don’t be ridiculous!”
“If you don’t want to believe it, don’t believe it.”
“Are you so embarrassed that you can’t even reveal your origins?! That skill is a waste!”
“The commander of the empire’s corps lives his mouth. Are you even scared?”
Unlike him, the enemy’s extremely light attitude fueled Egon’s anger again.
However, he was not foolish enough to get excited about an enemy blocking his slash.
“A person who has no pride in himself is a superhuman. Well, then, I will bury him here with his undisclosed name.”
The tip of Egon’s sword shined brilliantly again, and at the same time, his body rushed towards the enemies as if shortening space.
‘You’re stronger than you think!’
Eilen, too, was not as relaxed as the expression he showed his enemy.
After hearing about the enemy’s characteristics, he intentionally volunteered to deploy despite opposition from his companions. This was because it seemed that his characteristic of indomitable fortress would be able to handle the true sword.
But the shock was bigger than I expected. After the second collision, I thought that if I made a mistake, I would immediately suffer internal injuries.
‘The difference in concentration….’
Her aura spread throughout her body, including the sword, and Egon’s aura concentrated on the sword.
It seemed that the difference was bigger than expected.
And even if we knew that, there were limits.
Indomitable Citadel is a trait created to help her become stronger and stand upright in the world. It was an illiquid trait that meant she could not completely remove the Auror’s armor covering her entire body even if she wanted to. Even if I concentrated as much power as I could on the sword, the difference could not be reduced.
bang!
Skag.
She blocked another slash, but the subsequent transformation pierced her defense shield and left a light scar on her arm.
Kwaaaaang!
And the subsequent attack sent a shock through my whole body and I had no choice but to be pushed away.
“joy!”
Is it just this much?
The red slash that fell again with an arrogant snort continued to inflict damage on her.
After experiencing several moves like that, Egon no longer clashed with her sword and began to focus on looking for an opening.
Skag.
Push.
Shock.
As the small noises that could not be properly heard on the battlefield piled up, the wounds on Eilen’s whole body increased.
It was proof that Egon was completely aware of her characteristics.
On the way, Bourdelle left the battlefield and disappeared, but they were now completely focused on each other. The enemy in front of me was too formidable to ignore an opponent with extreme characteristics and focus my attention elsewhere.
“How long can we last like that!?”
The enemy’s sarcastic voice put pressure on Eilen, but even when she was on the defensive, her eyes remained calm. Or rather, the deeply sunken eyes seemed to be not looking at the other person, as if they were lost in thought.
‘It’s worth holding on. ‘Strangely enough.’
It was like that.
The difference is more than one degree.
The compatibility of characteristics also gives the enemy an advantage.
But strangely enough, it was worth holding on to.
And Eilen had a vague guess that he could do this. The results before my eyes only confirmed that guess.
‘why?’
The primary reason was easy to guess. It was probably due to her unique method of movement, the ‘feather walk’, which was completely developed during the Kingdom Alliance War.
A defensive method of movement that adds the vibrations of the dozens of layers of auric shield that surrounds her entire body to the ghostly shadow. The special skill created by her experience as a swordsman, her talent, and the enormous force endurance derived from the force core of the new sword Vision reduces 90% of the impact and minimizes damage.
But that wasn’t everything.
Eilen had vague expectations ever since she heard about Egon Miller’s characteristics. That his own characteristics and ultimate abilities will help him realize his shortcomings.
And the talent of a genius who rose to the intermediate level of an Auror user in his mid-twenties brilliantly met his own goals and expectations. An absurd phenomenon was taking place where the aurors, which kept splitting and collapsing due to enemy attacks, were transformed in real time.
An auror that mutates into a sticky substance that allows it to stick immediately even if the dozens of layers of membrane surrounding the body are split upon impact.
‘little bit more. little bit more!’
The genius’s concentration, as if he had forgotten that it was a moment of life-or-death confrontation in the middle of the battlefield, soon tasted full fruition. At some point, the shallow sword strike aimed at an opening was unable to pierce her aura and was scattered.
“done!”
The sight of her cheering without even realizing it was truly miserable. The armor on his entire body was already torn apart like rags, barely protecting his face and other vital areas, and shallow sword wounds were spread like spiderwebs all over his limbs.
It may have seemed funny to cheer with such a face, but Egon’s expression was rather distorted.
“What a damn bastard…”
He too was able to immediately understand what it meant that the previous blow was blocked. Now, you can’t cut down the enemy without a proper hit.
The difficult enemy has evolved to become even more difficult.
But at that moment, an old voice was heard from behind them.
“Stop. Catch the escaped archer, Egon. I’ll take care of this.”
Eilen’s expression hardened at the voice of the sword spirit who had piled up corpses all over the approaching road.
‘You just have to endure it. Just hold on.’
All operations have already been planned. In addition, the results gained from dealing with Egon Miller just now are also significant.
Her auror, with its sticky properties, will strengthen the Indomitable Fortress several times more and also make its Force endurance superior.
As a reaction, the path to sharpening her auras and increasing her attack power was definitely over, but she chose to maximize her strengths rather than correct her weaknesses.
In addition, the faint aura that looked like a drop of water barely hanging on the tip of the Sword Soul’s sword boosted his confidence.
‘I definitely haven’t recovered from my injuries.’
however.
“It’s my first time meeting you, so why are you dressing up as a man? It’s a waste of your skills.”
The eerie eyes that seemed to see through everything instantly halved my confidence.
