Unified Ranking (5)

Tick, tick.

The skin burned.

The magic of the 8th circle made the stadium a fire pit, and the heat felt just by standing on it seemed to melt the body completely.

I could have died.

If he had been exposed to Hellfire, he would not have been able to survive even with the ghost magician's regenerative power, but Kevin saved his life in a short time.

no.

Even this could have survived because it was Kevin.

If it had been anyone else in Dmitry, he would have cried out surrender after seeing the skin melt in the heat.

"Prince Edwin Hector. Dmitry doesn't break down like this."

laughed

People say the burning pain is beyond human tolerance, but Kevin's face shows no sign of pain.

A man who cut off his own arm with one word of Roman Dmitry.

The physical pain did not break the mind, but rather showed the will to overwhelm the audience.

It's like you'll never back down.

Stepping out of the blazing fire, Kevin showed a distorted, demonic laugh with his sword hanging down.

"I will go back."

pod.

Quiet rumble.

kicked the ground

As Edwin Hector took a step back and raised his mana, Kevin's senses expanded like crazy.

realm of control.

Demon magic was expressed in polarity.

His brain was stained with a devil's whisper, and Kevin's movements were faster than before.

However.

"Fire Storm."

rumbling rumble rumble.

Edwin Hector did not back down either.

Kevin isn't the only reason not to lose.

For the kingdom of Hector, it was necessary to win, so he, who caused a storm of flames, expressed his will and moved the direction of the storm.

Wherever Kevin moved, flames fell.

The magic power was improved by the effect of burning, but the magical burden was not formidable due to the magic used in succession.

Quang!

rumbling rumble.

The attack missed.

Even as the flames continued to explode, Kevin's movement to avoid it with an intermittent difference was enough to arouse admiration.

Then.

flash.

It reached in front of me in an instant.

Edwin Hector counterattacked and used Blink at the same time, and as the world was reconstructed, Kevin caught up with him before his eyes.

It was a horrifying sight.

Kevin's movement was really fast before, but when he raised the ghost magic to the polarity, he reached the same level as the person who used Blink.

Quiet rumble rumble.

Aura explosion.

Edwin Hector clenched his teeth in an attack aimed at his own head, apparently.

"Blink."

yet again.

moved to a distance of 10 cm.

When Kevin immediately slashed the space next door, a change took place before Edwin Hector's body was reconstructed.

"Blink, Blink."

It was predictive magic.

In anticipation of Kevin following up, he used Blink in succession, moving his body to another space before his senses were fully completed.

Thanks to that, Kevin's attack was able to flow.

A number of Edwin Hectors arose as if an illusion was shared, and Edwin Hector did not just run away from a distance that could be felt.

flash.

"Explosion."

rumbling rumble.

a fleeting moment.

Edwin Hector, who appeared right next to Kevin, activated the fully-open top battlefield and displayed fire magic.

As close as possible, the destructive power could not but be great.

Kevin quickly protected himself with an aura from the direct flames, but in an instant, the surrounding space was engulfed in flames.

It was a close encounter.

Edwin Hector went beyond the limits of a wizard, and showed more than just a wizard.

But.

sudden.

rumbling rumble.

The flames raged.

Kevin, who broke through and appeared, protected his body with an aura to minimize damage, leaving the rest to the ghost magician's regenerative power.

people said In close combat, Aura swordsmen and wizards are called natural enemies.

Although the shortcomings of the wizards were partially resolved with the development of the upper-level battle, the existence of Kevin, apart from the simple relationship between the two occupations, had all the elements that wizards disliked by itself.

strong physical abilities.

sensitive sense.

And monstrous regenerative abilities.

It was a heavenly enemy.

Seeing Kevin attacking until the end, Edwin Hector knew that a win-win was necessary.

Curl rumble.

exploded magic.

He expressed his magical power, and finally tried to fight head-on with Hellfire.

However.

flash.

"… … ?!"

It was clearly out of range.

When he was about to use magic with confidence, Edwin Hector felt a pain in his chest.

blood splashed

staggered

I found out then

Just a blow.

Just as he hid one room, Kevin also hid the last one.

* * *

"Cool."

knelt down

He spit out a handful of blood.

In a state of complete disarray, Edwin Hector looked at Kevin with a pale face.

'How has it developed so much in just a few years?'

Edwin Hector and Kevin.

It wasn't the first time we met on the battlefield.

On the southern front, the two met as enemies, and although they did not meet directly, they did not show such a presence.

That was the memory of Kevin.

Although Kevin's reputation as Dmitry's demon has grown over the years, Edwin Hector clearly remembered the moments he had experienced firsthand.

And this.

That was Dmitry's power.

The moment he fell on his knees to Kevin, who had dreamed of winning, he realized how powerful Dmitry was.

'Everyone will know when this tournament is over. Some people think that the empire was built simply by the power of Emperor Roman Dmitry, but in reality this is not the case. The more active participants like me, the greater the status of Dmitry, who overwhelms the participants.'

I raised my head.

asked with a troubled face.

"Just a blow. Did you prepare for this competition?"

Kevin.

He was fully prepared to defeat him.

I fully understood the aggressive style, but I had never heard of a swift sword that penetrated the space.

Kevin came.

Wiping the blood flowing from his forehead, he pointed the sword in his hand to his neck.

"Stop it."

As if he didn't want to answer.

Kevin looked down with a calm face.

Edwin Hector grinned.

finished.

This monster overwhelms him.

"… … I admit defeat."

2 rounds.

It was the result everyone expected, but the content was enough to shock people.

* * *

just the game.

Many people watched.

Not only ordinary people, but also representatives of each country could not hide their shocking emotions.

"… … It's getting complicated."

"Dmitry's demon is so strong. I don't know what the hell we were planning."

Chief of Kronos.

It was Count Bellatro.

Mendes hoped to win the championship, but the truth he confirmed revealed how futile his dream was.

Count Bellatro said.

"Dmitry already has an overwhelming military force that no other country can reach. Our Kronos contender for the title didn't go against Chris, and Valhalla's swordsman fell to his knees to Edwin Hector. And look at that stage. The figure that Dmitry's demon showed me. If we met such a monster on the battlefield, would we be able to save our lives?"

overwhelmed

Not Roman Dmitry.

Only to the prosecutor below him.

Count Bellatro continued to chatter involuntarily with the fear that dyed his heart.

"The era of Dmitry will open in the future. Not only because His Majesty Roman Dmitry won the Continental War, but their strength and power will make it so. We must adapt to the changing reality in the future. Hector's Kingdom also proved Prince Edwin Hector's personal strength, so if we treat them as a single kingdom as before, we may lose our power."

right beside.

There were the leaders of Valhalla.

They faced reality.

The era of the two empires that once ruled the continent is coming to an end, and a new era such as Dmitry and Hector has begun.

Roman Dmitry.

Edwin Hector.

They were new heroes who will decorate history.

Thinking of the future they would lead, Count Bellatro wanted to get drunk today.

Since this competition was an opportunity given to everyone, it was rather a stage that plunged people into the abyss of despair.

like that.

Both rounds are over.

people were sure

Chris and Kevin.

The two will meet in the final.

When Edwin Hector fell, there was no one else to face them.

It was as expected.

Round 3 Chris and Kevin win.

Round 4 Chris and Kevin win.

There wasn't even a fight.

In the course of the two beings who destroyed their opponents with overwhelming power, people focused on only one concern.

Final!

a few days later.

The moment everyone has been waiting for has arrived.

* * *

There was no change.

Chris and Kevin made it to the finals.

Finally, when the two beings collided, people had no choice but to split their opinions.

"Who will win?"

"I am Chris. Even before he met His Majesty, Roman Dmitry, Chris is a person with such a foundation that he has been called Dmitry's genius swordsman. I think his position in Dmitry is a testament to his ability, as he has actually played a very important role perfectly."

"I am against it. Everyone saw the showdown with Prince Edwin Hector. Edwin Hector was clearly strong enough to be a winner, but Kevin bit his opponent like a beast. Imagine that blade pointed at Chris. Will Chris be able to survive? I can assure you that in this tournament, Kevin will defeat Chris and the ranks will be cleared."

It was a riot.

Each show was so amazing, the public opinion was divided in half, and there was a war of words over the winner.

on the day of the finals.

people flocked

Roman Dmitry was present at the top table overlooking the stadium to glorify this event.

"His Majesty the Emperor. Your Majesty, who do you think will win?"

Jonathan was the commander of the knights.

At the lightly asked question, Roman Dmitry smiled.

"Well. Whoever wins, the outcome doesn't really matter. We have already achieved the purpose of holding a unified ranking match. As the powerful representatives of each country collapse one after another against Dmitry's prosecutors, we formed a public opinion that overwhelms the leaders of each country without resorting to any terrorism."

"If a winner appears. He will challenge His Majesty the Emperor. It means you have to accept the challenge of either Kevin or Chris."

As the end approaches.

There is a topic that people are interested in.

The right of the winner.

At the opportunity to challenge Roman Dmitry, people talked about what would happen if something unusual happened.

Great achievements that go beyond common sense tend to dilute over time.

Only a small percentage of the population actually confirmed the achievements of Roman Dmitry.

Most of them have only heard rumors.

With fewer opportunities to fight on the throne, some people questioned whether such a nonsense was really possible.

It is not that achievements are not acknowledged, but some may be exaggerated.

Perhaps.

if.

perhaps.

What will happen if the challenger defeats Roman Dmitry?

Those who witnessed the legend on the battlefield would be horrified, but the ignorance of those who did not experience the truth was a natural phenomenon.

Because I had to accept the truth beyond common sense.

They couldn't hide their anticipation enough to say nonsense at their only chance to see the legend in person.

Roman Dmitry said.

"That's why we held this competition. In order to give each nation a clear hierarchy without the use of a government of terror, and to imprint in the bones every year how the nation was able to conquer this continent. Commander of the Knights Jonathan. Chris and Kevin. No matter who comes up on stage against me, I will regard them as challengers who have excluded their previous relationship. So it doesn't matter who the winner is."

It was great confidence.

this contest.

With the intention of proving himself as emperor, Roman Dmitry accepted Chris' request.

It was intentional.

Judging that it was sufficiently necessary, Roman Dmitry set the stage for a challenge.

A competition that is repeated every year.

A winner is born every year.

And fight the winner.

Convinced that a series of processes would raise his status as an emperor, Commander Jonathan had no choice but to nod his head.

'This is the first emperor of the Dmitry Empire that will remain in the history of the continent. After all the festivals that shook the continent were over. Dmitry's power like Cheolongseong (鐵甕城) would put the entire continent under his feet.'

Participants appeared in the arena.

"To the players position."

The time has come.

Kevin, who was waiting in the waiting room, slowly got up and walked towards the stadium.

My heart raced.

eyes looking down on themselves.

At the center of it was Roman Dmitry.

And the sword he was holding was a famous sword made by the master who was like the sky.

I had no intention of losing.

When Kevin finally went on stage, he saw a lifelong competitor who had caused him two defeats.

'Kris.'

The time has come to prove yourself.
