Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 600
#600. you must change
While.
Limon was silent.
As if caught off guard by unexpected words.
Or maybe you just don’t understand what it means.
He stared blankly at Maia, then opened his mouth and closed it several times.
Limon, who had been wandering around looking for something to say that was not like him, opened his mouth after a long time.
“I remember it was the doctor who pointed out that I had killed a student more than once or twice.”
“exactly.”
“Do you still think killing Suri will hurt me?”
“Of course not.”
“…on what grounds do you assert that?”
“Because you are not a monster.”
As always, with a pessimistic face.
But he looked straight at Limon with unwavering green eyes.
Maia continued quietly.
“If not killing innocents is hypocrisy, then killing just because there is potential for harm to mankind is a monster.”
“….”
“Because you know that fact, you decided and kept the line.”
she asserted.
No matter what the cause, those who take human life lightly become monsters.
Swordsmen, swords, swords.
Above all, that sword demon.
There was no way that Limon, who had cut himself, would not know.
That’s why his line is a safety device.
It was the shackles he put on himself to prevent him from becoming a monster, and the minimum standard to distinguish who he had to slash.
But…
“And even if you crossed the line, you would have been hurt and regretted every time you cut a tooth you didn’t want to cut. isn’t it?”
He cut his subordinates to keep the line of not compromising on hostage taking.
Just as he killed his disciple to prevent further harm to the world.
He has done anything to defend humanity.
But were you happy?
Were you satisfied with the result?
Were you proud of your bloody sword?
Maia was sure.
Unfortunately, Limon would never have saved the world with such cheap feelings.
I feel miserable every time.
Even though I feel sad and bitter.
The fact that the man who had endured steadfastly was Limon.
Even more so, if you cut a running eagle that hasn’t crossed the line yet, there’s no way Limon won’t get hurt.
knowing that fact.
she said coldly.
“Even if you keep the good swordsman, don’t be ruled by the good.”
“….”
“You may remain as a hypocrite as you are now, but you must not become a monster that protects humanity.”
“Am I a hypocrite?”
“Of course not.”
To Limon who casually asked.
Maia sneered.
“Who would do the crazy thing of protecting the world in the first place if not a hypocrite?”
Volunteer or donate.
There is no goodwill in the world without a price.
If there is anything that looks like that, it is just an act of self-satisfaction intoxicated with helping others.
As always.
without dreams or hopes.
The pessimistic and cynical princess pointed out.
“I guess I could tell your hypocrisy just by looking at the way you treat that country.”
Others may not have noticed.
However, Maia, who had been pushing others away all her life because of her own toxicity, knew.
Go on TV on purpose.
Exposing what Han Jeong-guk did.
The subtle sense of incongruity in Limone’s actions, who declared that he had now abandoned the country.
“There were many ways you could retaliate against that country.”
Killed those involved in his Tosagupaeng.
Or use the Seven Dragons to ruin the economy.
Even if it took a little effort, I was able to accelerate even the exposure.
Even so, was it only because Han Jeong-guk was doing annoying tricks that he now came and publicly cut off ties with that country?
And if not?
“Nevertheless, the reason why you finally revealed the truth was to prevent that country from getting caught up in a fight with the World Federation.”
to that point.
the answer that came back.
silence.
Instead of answering by stroking the sleeping eagle’s head, he closed his mouth.
betrayed by the country
Even if you have abandoned the country.
It’s like I couldn’t let go of it.
It looks cold and tough.
I always thought about it and regretted it.
To the hero of the old era who is too affectionate to be the protector of mankind and more old-fashioned than the blue dragon clan.
Maia said quietly.
“I am not criticizing you. Even if it’s petty hypocrisy, it’s because you’ve kept the good that this world can be saved.”
If Limon gave up defending the line and cut down anyone just because he was an enemy.
The Seven Dragons would have perished long ago, and even if they survived, they would never have joined hands with him.
Conversely, if you watched the runaway disciples in order not to get hurt, or if you turned your back on the world because you couldn’t hold on to your regrets.
The world would have been much more bleak than it is now.
That’s why his efforts to remain as a protector of mankind without ever becoming a monster while keeping a close line were certainly not wrong.
“But to live as a swordsman is to change.”
Still, Maia insisted.
He is also human after all.
can’t help but change.
It’s something that needs to change again.
“Of course I know how difficult and dangerous it is for you to change.”
Organisms learn and evolve.
It can also be forgotten and regressed.
But if a fish has feathers, it’s just a hindrance.
Just as there are people who can move forward because they forget painful and sad memories.
Limon’s breaking the line he’s been following could have more negative consequences than positive ones.
In particular, there is a risk that the contradiction will call Shimma and accelerate the incubation process.
“But you must change.”
more anxious than now.
Even if you regret this choice.
To become a monster with no regrets.
Change to remain a hypocrite until the end.
Limon, who had been looking at Maia, who spoke firmly, with indescribable eyes, finally opened his mouth with a bitter smile.
no i tried to open it
Until you hear the next words.
“—So I can get my revenge on you.”
It’s been a while since I’ve been able to blink my eyes at the words that were completely different from what I said a while ago.
As if I just realized I didn’t hear anything wrong.
Limon asked shyly.
“…What are you saying?”
“What are you surprised by? Have you already forgotten the declaration of war I made on you?”
can’t have forgotten
What she did after saving Maia from dying in a fight in Brazil in the past.
The declaration of war, which was too bloody to be a confession, was shocking even to Limon.
However, until now, he had kept a distance from him and behaved calmly, as if such a confession was a dark history.
Why are you bringing up that story?
Looking at the flustered Limon.
Maia twitched her lips.
“What do you think is the reason I have been working so hard to restore and improve nectar in the first place?”
“…I can’t believe that.”
“exactly.”
seduce him
let yourself fall
By blinding you to love.
He said he would repay the favor for saving his life and at the same time avenge the grudge he had accumulated for hundreds of years.
Stealing Limon’s lips.
Just like the time when I proudly declared it.
He was cynical and pessimistic, but he looked straight at Limon with darker eyes because he was mixed with love and hatred.
Maia said coldly.
“Nectar is the weapon I have prepared to seduce you and prove my qualifications as a bride.”
* * *
“Swordsmith, you are such an amazing bastard.”
“….”
“It has been proven for hundreds of years that you can never get over with simple whitening.”
over the past hundreds of years.
There were innumerable people who wrote the beauty world to Limon.
but the result was unsuccessful.
Not a handful of women won his heart, and even some of them did not break Limon in the end.
At the same time as being his last disciple, even the swordsman who almost became his bride in the past ended up being cut by his sword.
“We are no exception.”
“….”
“No matter how much the dragon psionic resonates, we will be seduced first before we can seduce you.”
It is true that the seven princesses can win Limon’s heart more easily thanks to the resonance of the dragon psionic.
But that’s all.
Even if your qualifications are recognized.
Even if you become Limon’s bride.
If they were to harm mankind, he would mercilessly cut them down.
“So I realized.”
just love him
If you only want dragon psionics.
You might be satisfied with that alone.
But Maia, who harbors as much resentment as affection for Limon, couldn’t do that.
If he couldn’t love himself and ruin himself, he couldn’t settle the grudge that had been building up for hundreds of years.
“There is only one way to bring you down.”
That’s why I’m wondering.
Studying to vomit blood.
A way to find a way to cut down on lifespan.
Maia cut it open.
“I will not tempt you.”
“…”
“Instead, I will poison all mankind with my poison.”
Unless you can destroy Limon.
Instead, I will destroy the world.
“So that everyone happily accepts my poison and becomes addicted to happiness and peace after longing for it.”
“I will make it so that everyone in the world cannot live without my poison.”
“So that you, as the guardian spirit of mankind, love and cling to me, so that you can never give up.”
“In the end, even break the line you set for me.”
Limon Aspelder.
Before becoming a sword master.
The one who has lived as a guardian deity of mankind.
He can give up his disciples, his lover, and his family, but he cannot give up on humanity.
So, by poisoning the world, even if you cross the line, you will destroy yourself so much that you cannot cut yourself, and you will not be able to escape from yourself forever.
That is his revenge and repayment
to him.
As always.
holding a pessimistic sneer.
Looking at Maia who speaks coldly.
creepy
Limon was thrilled.
It wasn’t just because of her aspirations to do something more absurd than the world peace plan that the entire Seven Dragons had gathered together.
because I realized
While the other princesses are trying to win his heart, even by expedient methods.
This woman alone is silent.
in the most outrageous way.
But that’s why he was trying to monopolize everything he had by obtaining qualifications as a priest through the unavoidable straight method.
“…the doctor’s house is really crazy.”
“I didn’t tell you already. I’m saying I was ruined because of you.”
“…”
“So, don’t get hurt by others on your own.”
Whether that opponent is a disciple.
Or any other princess.
And whether it’s love, regret, or guilt.
He said he could no longer allow another woman to break his heart and leave scars.
Maia put on a cold smile.
“Because only I can hurt you and destroy you.”
“…”
Because I will never forget Eun-won.
More tenacious than anyone else.
The most obsessed princess.
That’s why even love, even when talking cynically about the action of hormones.
A woman who was ruined by love and hate because she couldn’t stop her love that had grown as deep as the grudge accumulated over hundreds of years.
There is only one thing Limon can do while looking at the green eyes that have sunk gloomily like Maia’s swamp.
He swallowed his moaning as he saw the nemesis who was a hundred times more threatening than a sword master and would truly destroy him.
