Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 284
Episode #284. That’s good.

“That fucking god… so stop.”
After holding Maia in her arms, she was unexpectedly bounced off the other side by a single shot from her.
Limon, who had been watching the situation from a distance without rushing to approach, frowned.
Like a child playing with bugs.
It wasn’t just because of Maia’s act of ripping off Diego’s head and limbs and tearing the remaining giants to pieces.
horns on the head.
Wings spread behind his back.
Even the pupil that changed like a reptile.
The figure of Maia, who was already half-human.
And the tingling sensation she felt throughout her body made Limon nervous.
‘Is it like this after all?’
Diego wasn’t weak.
Due to his overly maximizing of his physical abilities, he was only a bad match against Limon, who was good at boxing, and Maia, who was a master of martial arts.
Infinite Lord Lee Chun-gi.
Magic Lord Carol.
A constellation that descended to the ground.
Even Bellos, who became an incarnation and wielded divine power.
Objectively, Limon was more dangerous than any foe he had ever fought in this Iron Age.
No matter how incapable of using the sword and protecting Maia, the fact that Limon was put on the defensive proves its strength.
He made two mistakes.
That he poisoned Maia with black magic.
And he openly used black magic in front of her to stimulate her instincts.
‘It’s the worst.’
The princess of the Seven Dragons is the strongest in the absolute class from the beginning.
Mighty Psionic.
A naturally strong body.
Up to seventy-two types of technology.
As they had all of that, they were superhumans that only sword masters could handle.
Even Maia alone dealt with Gula and the Forest Guild.
However, if that was the case, the Seven Dragons would have collapsed long ago.
No matter how strong the princesses are.
How many times stronger do you become with the Seven Dragons?
There was not a single sword master who was so weak that he couldn’t handle that much.
Even so, there is one reason why the Seven Dragons were able to endure even in the age of heroes when sword masters were rampant.
This is because the seven princesses had a last resort to activate when cornered.
‘Yonghwa… I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve seen this.’
The principle is simple.
Just as a cornered creature unleashes an unconscious limiter and unleashes its full potential.
It’s just that the instincts contained in the dragon’s blood bring psionics to their limit when their lives are in danger.
…By making the bodies of the princesses infinitely closer to those of dragons so that they could handle the vast amount of psionics.
The princess who has evolved in this way has a strength that is different from before.
Because of the burden of the body, you can use the psionics that you used only limitedly by using the seasons freely to the limit.
However, for the seven princesses, Yonghwa is the last resort.
Most of the time I didn’t use it unless absolutely necessary.
Basically, it was activated only when one’s life was on the verge of danger, and there were two enormous side effects in exchange for its mighty power.
Fuck! Chow!
‘As expected, reason flew away.’
The first side effect of Yonghwa.
That reason completely evaporated.
Besides, it moves according to its instinct to protect itself, so it destroys anything it sees.
In a sense, runaway.
Or it will be in a state close to mineralization.
It can be seen as a minimum control in that it is possible to distinguish between enemies that cannot be defeated or run away, but…
“Master, would you like to recognize who I am?”
It must have been that the energy of black magic was unpleasant.
Maia, who had been crushing the corpses of the giants who had been annihilated in an instant and turning them into powder, finally stopped moving and turned her head.
To look back at Limon who called him.
Limon spoke to her as calmly as possible.
“If you understand what I mean, release the dragon right away. Maintaining Yonghwa as he is now is an act of suicide.”
The second side effect of Yonghwa.
that it uses life force.
The burden is as great as forcibly remodeling the body to handle the runaway psionics in the first place.
Even if a princess is healthy, if she maintains it for a long time, her lifespan may be shortened or her disability may remain for the rest of her life.
Not to mention Maia’s lifespan is short due to reckless human experiments.
Just by maintaining Yonghwa right now, she was running toward death every moment.
“Didn’t you say you couldn’t die until you inherited the blood?”
So Limon did his best to convince Maia.
There was no need for her to maintain Yonghwa any longer as long as Diego was taken care of anyway.
but right after that.
Limon moved reflexively.
Fuck!
and flew away
The defense was not late.
It was just meaningless to block it with both hands, and it was blown off again with tremendous force.
Branching a few trees.
After rolling around on the floor.
Limon barely stood up and spat out blood from his cracked mouth.
And he mumbled dejectedly as he saw Maia glaring at him with a terrifying murder.
“It’s ruined.”
It was a natural result.
Even now, Maia has become more ferocious than the original dragon because of the energy of black magic.
Now, he could not expect the discernment to recognize a slave he had only met for ten days as an ally.
What’s more, his opponent is Limon.
He was an enemy who had fought against the Seven Dragons for hundreds of years.
Rather, it was close to a miracle that he attacked Diego first over him.
In other words, it means that now Maia will never release the dragon until Limon is defeated.
Even if she wanted to be neutralized in front of a dangerous ‘enemy’ like Limon, her instincts as a princess wouldn’t allow it.
‘Pretend you’ve lost… you’ll really fall for it if you do.’
‘Disguise with the power of the constellation… I’m not in a state where the same thing works.’
‘But if you drag out the time halfway like this, only the master will be more dangerous as long as Yonghwa is maintained…’
What can be done to solve this situation, which can only be said to be the worst in many ways.
Take a moment to shake your head.
“I can’t help it.”
One time to let out a sigh with an unwilling face.
Limon tilted his body.
Then, pull your left arm up like a shield and extend your right arm forward like a spear.
He opened his mouth quietly, flicking his fingertips.
“Come on.”
Another way to solve the dragon fire.
That is, to lose consciousness.
to write that way.
“If you can’t understand with words, I will tell you with my body.”
…The Sword Master, who couldn’t use a sword, started a fight without a chance.
* * *
PABABABABABABABANG!
A fist extended dozens of times in the blink of an eye.
never block the front
take it with the palm of your hand
deflect it with the back of your hand.
while hitting it by hand.
I take each of those dozens of punches and shed my overwhelming power.
If you see and respond, it’s already too late.
Predict by intuition and experience.
It doubles as two or three defenses in one move.
Even the movement is shortened as much as possible to catch up with the speed several times.
But the attack doesn’t slow down.
On the contrary, it accelerates more and more, and the aftermath only tears the air and creates a storm.
So the moment when the number of hand and fist exchanges increased from dozens to hundreds and eventually thousands of times in an instant.
Perong!
not hit
I just couldn’t shed my strength.
However, just by blocking the fist from the front, the arm bone cracked and the body was pushed away.
before I even stopped.
Kicks off the ground and rushes forward, anticipating the swinging claw and leaning back to avoid it.
Chew!
Maybe it’s because of the short hair difference.
Or was it because the liver was avoiding it?
Five lines of scars are deeply engraved on the neck.
The super-high-speed pursuit continued without a chance to be relieved that the nail marks had not been carved into the arteries.
It avoids it by rotating its body as it is in the posture of leaning back, and with that rotational power, it launches a kick that can break even rocks.
Tuong!
The scales, which are stronger than any metal, bounce off them too easily.
But it doesn’t stop.
I just use the rebound of my foot to rotate my body again, and this time I just fly the other leg.
Aim for the tip of the chin.
A vital point that can shake even the toughest ironman if hit properly.
chin!
A hand gripping an ankle.
before that finger crushed his ankle.
Rotate the body once more with the ankle caught as the central axis and strike the chin with the leg on the opposite side of the nose.
Fuck!
Is it because of the impact of the jaw?
Take advantage of the gap in the strength of the grip and pull out the ankle.
Then, with Maia staggering away from her, she catches her breath.
‘As expected, it’s not easy.’
Ankle twisted bizarrely, not having been bruised in the shape of a palm just by being caught for a very short time.
But I ignore the pain.
As if it stumbled when
I can only judge by looking at Maia, who quickly straightens her body again and releases more powerful psionics.
‘…No, to be honest, that’s a bit unreasonable.’
It had only been a few minutes.
Compared to Maia, who has no scars, her own body, already covered in blood and bruises, tells her.
If you fight like this, you’ll lose yourself.
It was unavoidable.
No matter how strong and strong your body is.
Whether it’s sublimating a fight into a killing art.
He is always a swordsman.
Fisting and kicking were only at the level of being used as an aid to swordsmanship.
Of course, with only that assistance, he was confident that he could beat a tolerable Archwitch or Unmyeongsa.
In fact, even against Diego, who was displaying transcendental physical abilities that exceeded even a monarch or an incarnation, he was able to withstand it with just one hand.
But now, Maia’s strength was not at a level comparable to that of Diego.
a long time ago.
before being defeated by the Sword Emperor.
The absolute one who ate even incarnations and conquered the world.
Above all, a transcendental species that was the only one who accomplished the feat of killing a sword master without being a sword master.
seven dragons.
Now she had the power of that mythical creature that existed before the creation of the world and withstood even the tribulation of the destruction of the world once.
It doesn’t matter if it’s half.
Wearing the body of a mighty dragon.
Unleash the psionics of infinite biomanipulation.
Exploding the already powerful physical ability hundreds of thousands of times.
With that alone, Maia was able to demonstrate power far beyond even the most absolute.
…To the extent that even a sword master would risk his life if he fought head-on.
‘You have to risk your life…’
Limon trembled.
Not because of the fear of death.
The tension that comes from a situation where an enemy who can kill you is revealing your intention to kill yourself.
I miss you so much.
too accustomed to
That’s why it was enjoyable.
The sense of crossing the gap between life and death on the verge made Limon smile without even realizing it.
‘That’s nice.’
Unclench your clenched fists.
Pull the arm outstretched like a spear.
Open the arm that was erected like a shield.
Then, in a most comfortable and natural position, place your palms in front of your chest.
as if praying
Is it because the combination was so out of the blue?
Or was it because he instinctively felt something?
Maia, who had been rushing forward, hesitated.
But that’s for a while.
Maia roared as if she couldn’t hold back the roaring roar, and clenched her fists.
Woo-woo-woo-deuk!
The moment when you want scales to grow on your delicate hands.
The scales coalesce to form a carapace, and eventually wraps her hands in a shape that is as hard and smooth as a gauntlet.
The same goes for lamb legs.
While ignoring the abdomen or face.
Rather than armor, it was a reinforced exoskeleton covering only the parts used for attack.
In order to further amplify her already transcendent physical abilities, she was wearing a weapon of unified attack and defense created through biological manipulation.
Put your back foot on the ground.
Maia crouching down.
Looking straight at her figure that reminds me of a beast on the verge of galloping.
Limon muttered to himself.
‘There is only one chance.’
Of course, as time goes by, Maia becomes more dangerous.
With a cracked arm and a broken ankle, a long-term fight only reduces the already slim odds.
So what I’m aiming for is a single plate.
It should be finished in one hit.
Of course, it is contradictory to have to defeat the princess of the Seven Dragons in one blow without holding a sword.
If another sword master tried to do something like this, it would have been an atrocity to ridicule Limon himself for wanting to die immediately.
That would be impossible even if the Sword Emperor or Sword Demon came back alive.
but only one.
Among the 13 sword masters in history, there was only one who was capable of that madness.
I came to the Sword Tower because I wanted power.
The one who refused to raise the sword.
Instead of swordsmanship, he learned only sword reasoning and martial arts.
And the one who mixed the two and created a sword law that even Limon, who taught it, could not have imagined.
hands with blades.
Legs with the back of a knife.
Use your body as a swordsman.
A pacifist who reached the level of a sword master without ever lifting a sword in his entire life.
By doing so, he is the only one who can complete a body that surpasses even the dragon.
The sword master of the enemy air force who used the bizarre ‘sword technique without a sword’ rather than the ‘invisible sword’ of the sword and the ‘non-draw sword’ of the sword master.
Quaang!
So I stamped the ground with my feet.
The recoil alone creates a huge crater.
The moment when Maia, transformed into a flash of light, was fired at herself at a speed that surpassed even lightning.
Limon drew out a single swordsman’s will that dwelled within himself.
『Yam Dragon Killing Sword Union
斬魔龍殺劍 合一
Peace or death?
和平或死亡』
That was an incomplete sword.
Even though he was a swordsman, he refused the sword.
Even though he was a pacifist, he blindly believed in the caste system.
A swordsman who was a non-violentist but caused a world war with the idea of the chosen people.
Limon couldn’t even sympathize with his life, which was a contradiction in itself, so he couldn’t fully accept the sword.
However, as Noh Kang-ho, a sword master who has mastered all swordsmanship and swordsmanship and has accumulated a lot of experience.
Above all, as a teacher who taught the swordsman by beating it, and as the person who cut him after he fell.
I was able to mimic half of it.
That was enough for Limon.
To use one’s own body as a sword and practice swordsmanship.
Kwaaaaaang!!!
Limon’s hand, which had been transformed into a single sword.
The moment when Maia’s hands, imbued with the dragon’s power, crossed.
A huge roar echoes through the sky.
The earth splits apart.
―A slender hand wrapped in a green carapace shattered Limon’s arm and pierced his chest.
