Solo Swordmaster Chapter 1088

#Side Story 57. Because sinners cannot regret (2)

* * *

Clap.

A quietly burning bonfire.

It was unfamiliar to her.

It’s been a long time since I’ve felt this much warmth, as I was able to survive by hiding and running away thoroughly until now.

Especially after losing all the other clan members and becoming alone.

But at this moment.

Instead of feeling relief and comfort from the warmth, she felt extreme discomfort and anxiety.

It wasn’t just because there was a risk of the location being exposed.

The person who started this bonfire.

The presence of a man who remained silent beyond the burning fire made it impossible for her to relax.

That was why.

The reason she opened her mouth in a cold voice.

“What are you thinking?”

“… .”

“I’m asking why you didn’t kill me, Limon Asfelder.”

“Shut your mouth, girl.”

What came back was a cold answer.

To her, who compared is full of resentment and hatred, she is extremely cold, heartless, and dry.

The white-haired man spoke softly as he looked at Li Qingyu with eyes that seemed to be looking at an object rather than a person.

“The reason I’m keeping you alive is simply because if you want to catch fish, the fresher the bugs, the better.”

“… Are you planning to use me as bait?”

“It’s a hassle to look for them one by one.”

“How arrogant you are.”

Li Qingyu sneering.

Of course, how strong he is.

She knew better than anyone else.

Of course, even though the Seven Dragons mobilized all their might and waged war for nearly ten years, they were unable to kill him.

Rather, more than half of his forces and masters were lost to his sword.

However, the Seven Dragons were not just helpless.

“Even though you lost an arm, do you still think you are absolute?”

“You’d better be quiet.”

Limon didn’t necessarily get angry at her as she scoffed at her loose sleeve.

It was just a soft warning.

“Because you don’t need a tongue for bait.”

“… .”

Li Qingyu was silent.

Because he knew that if he talked any more, he would cut out his tongue.

And so…

Their extremely uncomfortable and dangerous journey began.

* * *

After starting to accompany Limon.

Her life has improved dramatically.

At least you no longer have to suffer from hunger, thirst, and cold while hiding.

However, it was not the only advantage that arose.

Because of Limon’s actions of openly leaving traces behind, they had to deal with pursuers every day.

Sigh!

“Kaaak!”

“It’s Li Limon Asfelder!”

“A relic from an old era that didn’t even receive the blessings of this planet… !”

… Of course, most of the time I just watched Limon cut down the pursuers who chased after me day and night.

Still, sometimes, when multiple large supplies appeared, she had to fight to survive.

Maybe it’s the past.

After monsters pour out of the dungeon.

Players who received the blessings of the stars and were reborn as hunters became frighteningly stronger every time they hunted a monster.

This is because the current Great Supply Hunters had so much power that even the Absolutes of the past found it difficult to deal with them one-on-one.

…Even the high-level hunters, including many such large-scale hunters, were eventually cut down by Limon’s blade.

Fight, fight, fight.

Kill, kill, kill.

Watching him leave blood and corpses like footprints every day.

That was why Li Qingyu asked without realizing it.

“Asfelder, why are you fighting the hunters?”

The Seven Dragons had no choice as they were unilaterally defeated and hunted by a surprise attack by the Ten Lords and other hunters.

Because their psionics rejected the power of the stars.

But Limon is different.

He is a being that even the constellations covet.

Because he was a superhuman who could make a contract with the Constellation at any time and become a new Absolute if he wanted to.

In fact, she knew this fact well as she had seen a monarch-level constellation offer him a contract.

nevertheless.

In these end times, everyone has become a hunter.

Why are you fighting against the constellations instead of making a contract on your own?

He calmly answered the reason.

“What reason do I need to catch parasites?”

“….”

No worries whatsoever.

Without any hesitation.

Li Qingyu fell silent after hearing Limon’s indifferent words.

Because I realized it.

Just as the Seven Dragons of the past fought against them for hundreds of years as they attempted to return the world to the Age of Bronze.

This time, Limon is simply fighting against the Constellations because they have eroded and corrupted the world and humanity.

…even if it means turning the whole world against you.

Well, he was like that originally.

Even when I fought a dragon with my teacher.

Even when facing sword masters.

Even when I stopped the descending demon.

The last sword master who has never known compromise and has swung the sword according to his own beliefs his whole life.

That is Limon Asfelder.

Because he was the guardian deity of mankind.

‘Maybe…’

That’s why.

A thought occurred to me.

That is truly an absurd idea.

It was a thought that I erased as soon as it occurred to me.

However, as I continued to walk with Limon, every time I saw him fighting, that thought kept coming up and then subsiding.

That’s why I worry and worry. After hesitation.

She finally made a decision.

“…Asfelder.”

It’s not that I’ve forgotten the grudge.

Among the seven princesses of the Seven Dragons’ Association, the Black Dragon Princess was killed by him the most times, having died and been reborn over and over again.

The hatred engraved deep in his soul was so severe that he even sold off his family’s shares and planned world peace in order to bring about his downfall.

But as a tactician.

Because I know what the best course of action is.

And there is a deeper and more bitter resentment that arose after losing all of the family members, including close associates.

Li Qingyu slightly bit her lip as she looked into the white-haired man’s indifferent eyes and continued speaking in a heavy voice.

“If you were given another chance to save the world, what would you do?”

That night.

Li Qingyu made a suggestion.

And their companionship, which was no different from sleeping with the enemy, changed a little.

However, the vague wandering turned into a journey with a destination to head to.

It was a long trip.

But it was also a short trip.

At least compared to hiding and avoiding pursuers, all I had to do was move east in a straight line.

As it was not easy to cross the ocean, we had to go through many hardships when crossing to Alaska.

Thanks to you for continuing to move forward despite the risk of almost freezing you.

She finally found it.

One of the seven clans of the Seven Dragons.

The last ones left.

The clan was able to endure even in these last days because they gave up Las Vegas and took refuge in El Dorado, the greatest city of mankind and the last ark of the fairy race.

The Golden Dragon clan.

“I didn’t know you were still alive.”

But at this moment.

A blonde beauty greets Li Qingyu.

Charlotte’s attitude was extremely cold.

And Li Qingyu could understand her cold reaction.

In the first place, even though they were part of the same Seven Dragons, the seven clans were competitors fighting for their own interests before they were allies.

Although he had the loyalty to accept her as she ran away after losing all of her power and clan, he had no obligation to welcome her.

―Especially because it has been a long time since even El Dorado collapsed.

The situation of the Geumryong clan, who are hiding in a canyon without a proper place to live, just setting up an old tent.

Also, the scar on Charlotte’s cheek and her torn and dusty dress proved that they, too, were already in trouble.

Above all….

“I didn’t know that Limon Asfelder would bring that mad dog all the way here.”

“Because there was a need for it.”

“Explain.”

Cool golden eyes.

As one of the princesses of the Seven Dragons, who had been fighting against Limon for the past ten years and fell as a result, she has frost-like chills in her eyes.

Charlotte said.

“Depending on what the need is, I will decide whether to kill you or keep you alive.”

Li Qingyu could tell.

That it is not a lie.

She is the Golden Dragon Princess. Because she was the proudest princess who never told lies.

“The reason we need him is…”

That’s why Li Qingyu spoke calmly.

As a strategist of the Seven Dragons, the only solution he has discovered to prevent this end times and save themselves.

A way to save the world.

And….

“…Do you think that would be possible?”

“In theory, it’s possible.”

“That’s something only con artists would say.”

And hearing those words.

Charlotte sneered.

Li Qingyu’s suggestion is a delusion rather than a strategy.

No matter how powerful and mysterious psionics were, it was something that was far beyond the realm of what was possible.

“At least it would have been possible when all seven of us were together, but there’s no way such a thing would be possible now that there are only three left, right?”

“….”

Maia lost her life to the monster lord and the ghosts of the liberation brigade.

Hasneti burned and oxidized the entire African continent.

Rose fell while blocking the pursuit of those retreating after losing in the final battle.

Above all, even Catherine.

Li Qingyu kept silent as she remembered the end of other princesses who had died without even leaving behind an egg during the fierce war with the hunters.

Charlotte pointed out sharply.

“Do you really think he would cooperate in the first place? To us who have fought so desperately?”

It was like that.

If he is their enemy.

For Limon, the Seven Dragons Association is an enemy.

We have been fighting for the past hundreds of years, and especially since that day 10 years ago, we have been enemies that have never been able to share the same sky.

Even under these circumstances, there was no way that sincere cooperation was possible.

Even though I know that fact better than anyone else.

Li Qingyu did not change his mind.

I just calmly added one word.

“Even if they don’t cooperate, they can still use us.”

“….”

“Because he was the guardian god of mankind.”

“It’s just as Li Qingyu said.”

Maybe it was because I didn’t like that fact.

Charlotte, who had been silent with a furrowed brow, turned her head when she heard a dry voice coming from next to her.

And they asked in a sharp voice the last survivor among the seven princesses except themselves.

“Ainsha, do you really believe that this foolish method is feasible?”

“it’s possible.”

An expressionless face like a doll.

A bandage covering one eye.

Even the colorless and transparent sunken eyes.

A white-haired girl who not only changed her facial expression but also completely lost all emotions after losing most of her family, including her close associates, and learning the Celestial Vision.

Ainsha spoke softly.

“I can do it.”

“…This is not something that can be accomplished with confidence alone.”

“Even if it doesn’t work out, you have to do it.”

“Why are you so assertive?”

What he held in his hand was a silver horn broken in half.

Holding the dragon fragment that contains the dragon psionics of time manipulation and the only remnant of her foolish sister who sacrificed her life to protect herself.

The world’s greatest prophet answered.

“Because there is no future for us anyway.”

“….”

And Ainsha’s words.

Charlotte couldn’t deny it.

Because even she knew that she was more arrogant than anyone else.

The Seven Dragons have already been defeated and there is no way for them to overcome this end times.

At least for now.

“The conclusion has been reached.”

Therefore, upon seeing Charlotte silently affirming, Li Qingyu quietly muttered.

Ainsha told them what they had to do with an expressionless face.

“―Send him back to the past.”
