Solo Swordmaster - Chapter 607

#607. Kyaung!

* * *

Plato’s carving knife.

The legacy of Plato, who was called the best messenger in history.

This treasure, which was also the second Seven Arcs that Limon obtained, had as much mysterious power as the Violin of Darkness.

But unfortunately, he had not been able to fully control the power of this carving knife yet.

This is because the final stage of the three-stage sealing has not yet been solved.

= >

Τέλεια μπάλα (perfect ball).

The first seal is to carve out a perfect sphere.

Actually it was very easy.

A carving knife is also a knife.

It was as easy as breathing for Limon, the sword master, to carve out the original ball without a single 0.01 millimeter error.

= > ♀

πάντων χρημάτων μέτρον ἐστὶν ἄνθρωπος.

(Humans are the measure of all things)

The second seal is to carve out the statue of Venus de Milo.

Unlike the original sphere, carving a complex and delicate statue was a much more delicate and highly advanced task.

But the result is the same.

It was only to the extent that breathing was as difficult as eating cold porridge for Limon.

As much as it was enough to open the second seal to handle the power of the carving knife, that was enough up until now.

The problem was then.

= > ☀

εἶδος (idea).

third seal.

Looking at a rectangular parallelepiped of golden brilliance floating alone in the air.

Limon murmured as if lamenting.

“Since Plato is like a fucking swindler, old man…”

During the first and second sealings, there was a model or model that had to be modeled and cut.

It was easy because I just had to cut it the same way.

But this time nothing like that.

It’s like cutting something.

The fact that there are only cuboids to be shaved off gives more difficulty than encountering a descriptive problem while solving only one-choice multiple-choice questions.

An overly wide degree of freedom makes people feel rather helpless.

If that’s the only thing though.

It would have been worth a try.

Even if he had just learned sculpting, Limon was now a first-class sculptor.

His sculpting skills, which melted deep knowledge into his superhuman sword skills, had reached a level where he could easily create any piece.

But…

“Sculpting Ideas, why did you leave this behind as a problem?”

Limon had a headache.

Idea.

An absolute concept that transcends time and space, and the essence of all things.

It was the highest goal and ultimate goal of philosophy that Plato insisted on throughout his life.

It was also no wonder that Plato, who had always considered himself a philosopher before being a messenger, left ideas as the final task of sealing.

So it was even more painful.

Of course, it’s been a long time.

Even Limon, who met Plato in person, did not know exactly what an idea was.

To explain the concept in detail in the first place, even a few books of philosophy would be insufficient.

However, the clear fact is that ideas do not exist in reality.

that it is an abstract concept.

To sculpt such an idea?

A real contradiction.

Thirteen times more outrageous demands than putting an elephant in the refrigerator or scooping out the seawater in one cup.

Still, let’s break the seal.

Limon tried all sorts of pieces.

From real things like people and animal landscapes to imaginary animals and gods.

Geometric sculptures, creepy things, and even heteromorphic sculptures that make you go insane just by looking at them.

But it didn’t work.

No matter what piece he did, the final seal could not be broken.

It was really frustrating for Limon, who had already suffered from a severe intoxication.

“Ttk, why did that old man die without living even 3,000 years?”

If Plato had been alive, he would have grabbed him by the collar and shaken it off to open the seal himself.

While sighing while holding a carving knife, resenting the old man who could not achieve immortality even though he was an absolute person.

Limon suddenly turned his head.

And the owner of the popularity he felt.

In other words, he laughed at the Indian girl who was peeking at him from the river with only his eyes peeking out.

“I wondered where you were all day, but it was hot and you wanted to wash seaweed?”

“…”

“Don’t stay that far, come and see.”

Limon gestured lightly.

There will be no progress in sculpture.

It was to change the mood by stroking or running while taking a short break.

“…Repair?”

But after a while.

Limon couldn’t help but put on a puzzled expression.

It was because the running repairman, who would normally have been excitedly rubbing as soon as he called, didn’t budge.

As if limiting something.

Or like seeing something unfamiliar.

hiding in the water.

The running repair that was watching Limon ended up submerged in the water.

It’s like running away from his eyes.

It was a time when Limon was devastated, like the butler who was turned away by the cat he had been raising while watching the girl disappear.

“I guess the Sword Spirit has finally fallen in love with you.”

“Do you really have to say that, Doctor?”

“Even if you ignore it, it won’t change the truth.”

“That’s right.”

Looking at Maia who snorted coldly.

Limon sighed.

Why is the running repair doing that?

Because I had a reason to guess.

It was only after that night that she began to avoid herself.

‘Is it natural?’

A sword master with superhuman senses.

Among them, a running eagle with excellent wild instincts would have recognized at a glance that he was never in a normal state at that time.

So, it is natural to be wary of yourself.

Limon judged soberly.

But I couldn’t help but let out a bitter laugh.

Even he didn’t like it when the distance was widening like this with almost the only disciple with whom he maintained a good relationship until the end.

‘No, it might be fortunate.’

“I’d rather have a face that looks good.”

“….”

“Why are you worried that the sword spirit will harm you if you recklessly approach you who have fallen into the cobweb?”

“Did you actually belong to the Black Dragon clan?”

“Don’t talk like an idiot. You don’t have to use psionics to know what you’re thinking.”

Take care of your facial expression.

Maia pointed out sharply.

Then, he handed out the medicine bowl to Limon, who was scratching his cheek.

“Today’s medicine.”

“…do I really have to drink this? Medicines don’t work for me anyway.”

“If you don’t like it, it doesn’t matter if you throw it away. Even if it were, it would only make you fall into the coin intoxication faster as much as eye mucus.”

“If you don’t eat it, don’t make scary noises to threaten to kill you.”

with a heavy sigh.

Limon emptied the bowl of red medicine.

Because he was invulnerable to poison, he couldn’t see the effect of even the most elixir, but he wasn’t in a position to cover anything if it helped even the tiniest bit of eye drop.

…I still can’t get used to this terrible taste.

“hmm?”

I was washing my mouth with river water to wash away the bitter, sour, fishy taste left on the tip of my tongue.

Limon raised his eyebrows.

And Maia, who only realized the reason a little later, opened her mouth quietly, looking towards the front of the ship.

“It’s pretty big.”

“I know. If we go on like this, we won’t know, but our stomachs will get better, right?”

coo coo coo coo.

far ahead of the ship.

The end of the current that gradually speeds up.

The two were not particularly agitated even while looking at the waterfall, which would have been hundreds of meters in height, if not all the way to the ceiling.

We just had a quiet conversation.

“What are you going to do?”

“You have to wait. Since Suri brought us here, there will be a way.”

“Actually, that sword spirit made you, the swordsman, escape.”

“You didn’t run away? It’s just that I feel a little strange, so I’m keeping my distance?”

“That’s why the Sword Spirit is asking what we would do if we kept our distance until we fell there.”

“It’s okay, because that won’t happen… maybe.”

“That sounds very reassuring.”

Limon, thinking of the running eagle avoiding him, spoke in a voice without confidence.

It was when Maia was cynical at seeing him like that.

Chew!

how soon did it come?

An Indian girl rising from the water.

The running repairman shook himself on the roof, his assigned seat.

“Look, didn’t I say I was coming?”

“I must be very proud of you.”

Limon smirks.

While Maia looks at him with pitiful eyes.

The running eagle looked at the waterfall in the distance before opening his mouth.

“Haam…”

Maybe it’s because I couldn’t sleep at night.

Or did he get tired of secretly watching while avoiding Limon since morning?

One long yawn.

It seems I haven’t woken up yet.

The running repairman sat comfortably on the roof and began to doze off.

Maia frowned when she saw how peaceful she was even in front of the waterfall, and tried to say something but shut her mouth.

Because Limon shook his head, holding out a hand to restrain her.

So Maia is silent.

While watching with Limon.

The boat moves along the current.

The moment I was about to fall at an angle at the edge of the waterfall.

『Drunk moon dream knife. Dream

, 醉中月, 夢中劍 夢藝,

drunk from a dream, open your eyes.

夢中醉 起床

』

The eyes of the running repairman close.

Right after the two daggers cut through the air, revealing blades curved like beasts’ teeth.

I’m going to go to the middle of the day.

The ship moved slowly.

…slowly along the surface of the waterfall.

From Limon and Maia riding on it, to the empty medicine bowls and other junk that were left on the boat.

There were no falling objects.

It was as if gravity had disappeared.

Or, it seems natural that in a waterfall from the beginning, only the direction of flow changes, rather than falling.

By the time the sailing boat, which had flowed down the waterfall at a stable speed, reached the middle of it.

Phaging.

The surrounding scenery changes.

The sailboat that had slipped from the waterfall suddenly appeared in the middle of the wide lake.

“Certainly your disciple is very talented.”

It’s not enough that the road is hidden in the middle of the waterfall, so I never thought I’d come in this way.

When Maia reluctantly nodded at the route guidance, which was only possible because it was a running repair.

Limon narrowed his eyes.

“This place…”

“Why is that?”

“It seems like a place I know.”

“…This means that the Amazon has finally arrived at its deepest point.”

“If this is the place I know, maybe.”

lakes surrounding it.

To be precise, Limon nodded as he looked at the forest with a slightly odd color surrounding it.

This area is where he once wandered in the Amazon.

In other words, it meant that it would be possible for him to visit the Millennium Flower alone from here on out.

Of course, unlike before, the space is jumbled up, so it’s safe to entrust the running repairman with directions from now on.

In his experience anyway.

Now, the millennium is just around the corner.

If we did well, we could find it today or tomorrow.

“Good work. Suri. I’ll even stroke your hair, so wait here…”

“Kyaung!”

“….”

He held out his hand to express his joy.

Limon’s shoulders drooped helplessly at the sight of the Indian girl running away in shock.

And Maia couldn’t help but look at the running repairman who peeked out his eyes from the roof and peeked at Limon again with pitiful eyes.
