Episode 539 To the kingdom of Heron (5)

The black man aimed his sword.

“Who are you?”

“It is bandit. Leave everything you have and go away.”

The man in black, who guessed his age by hearing the voice, relaxed.

“Hoo. The young guy has a short tongue. It’s a short-lived seller.”

The more mana is trained, the stronger its power becomes.

It didn’t make sense for him to lose to such a bright young kid at all.

“You’re out of luck. Now that you’ve seen us, you’ll have to die.”

As he spoke, spitting out blood, the men blocked his way.

“I know you came out to help us, but you are not the one to deal with. Go straight through the forest by this road.”

“If you see someone wearing fancy clothes, tell him to run away.”

end with that.

Immediately, the men who raised their swords rushed at the man in black.

It was a perfect sword that struck the top of the head like a thunderbolt, but unfortunately, the black man who had already prepared for it easily blocked him.

Chae Ae Ae-!

“One sword is worth using.”

The black righteous man, who had swiped the men’s swords once using his swordsmanship, slammed them with force.

After a while, the swords got entangled and the wrists of the men holding the swords snapped.

“Aww!”

For a moment, the impact on the wrist was so great that I lost hold of the sword I was holding tightly.

Through that gap, the black man’s sword slammed into the man’s heart.

An extremely clean swordsmanship.

Even though Saiham is tainted, it is not too shameful as a swordsman if he thinks that he will be killed by someone who far surpasses them.

The man boldly faced the coming death.

By the time the black man’s sword touched his chest.

Oksu Seom Seom approached from behind at a terrifying speed and grabbed the tip of the sword.

As I gripped the blade with my thumb and forefinger and twisted it slightly, the sword aura could not overcome the shock and shattered.

Kaaaang-!

An unbelievable sound echoed through the clash of hands and swords.

When his sword was destroyed with just one move, the black man who took back his mana and stepped back extended his sword again.

Seeing how he prepared for the second attack without panicking in unexpected situations, it seemed that he had been training for quite some time.

This time, Ray lightly twisted his body as he saw the sword aiming at his right side.

For an instant, the black man’s eyes flashed with life.

He sharply turned his sword path.

‘This is the end.’

It was a neat move that he could never avoid even if he thought about it.

The black man poured mana into the sword to increase its strength.

If they brushed against it even a little, they would not be able to avoid fatal injuries due to the exploding mana.

Ray stared at the sword, grabbed it with his bare hands, and pulled it lightly.

Joo-wook-

Huh?

The center of gravity was disturbed for an instant, and the black righteous man, unable to maintain balance, was thrown to the ground.

Was it shame rather than pain?

The black man stood up suddenly and shook his head.

“You are lucky.”

To hold a sword forged with mana in your hand.

No matter how much I thought about it, I had no choice but to attribute it to luck.

‘But not twice. Blame it on your inadequacies in the underworld.’

The black man made a polite move and approached like a snake.

Let’s open the lid.

I felt a divine scent that I hadn’t smelled in a long time.

oh how i missed you

this divine fragrance.

It must have been the scent of divine power that he had received from the Holy Land before.

Seeing that it is also quite high-purity, it must mean that there is someone among the top heads of the Holy Kingdom who secretly sold the holy water.

‘This is another unexpected income.’

Later on, the Holy Kingdom will need to be consolidated once again.

Ray gulped down the potion without hesitation.

With the help of a therapist, various medicinal materials are mixed, and the spicy taste lingers.

“It’s a high-end item.”

It’s a pretty addicting taste.

It was very heinous to see the whole bottle taken in one shot and even tasted again.

“My potion...!”

When the last resort left until the end disappeared, the black man collapsed on the spot.

It seems that he stopped the bleeding somehow with mana.

Did you think there was no chance of winning?

The swords held by the men in black slowly lowered.

“...We are the assassins of Heron Kingdom. I can’t answer any more questions.”

The kingdom of Heron is the kingdom where Count Sylvester’s family resides.

At that, the men shouted.

“Stop talking nonsense! Sending an Assassin to kill us in Heron is unacceptable!”

“Whatever you think, do as you please. we told the truth Can I go now?”

He picks up the fallen black man as if he judged that it is no longer dangerous.

Even he had no intention of confronting them right away.

Rather, it is better to live and run away like this.

‘If they’re skilled at that level, they’ll probably use the road later.’

His skills were too great to throw them out just because he was caught once.

Heron isn’t a huge kingdom, it’s only a small and medium-sized kingdom, so how could they beat them?

He’ll probably be put on probation right now, but sooner or later the day will come when he’ll be able to use it again.

When that time comes, it would be nice to catch them again and use them.

Ray nodded and took a few steps back.

The relieved black men turned their backs as quickly as they appeared.

* * *

The escorts stopped the bleeding and came to thank you.

“Thank you. Thanks to you, I was able to save my life.”

“I saw it from the side, but it is a great skill. If I hadn’t seen with my own eyes that someone like you existed, I wouldn’t have believed it.”

How much training did you go through at such a young age?

The man in black was an opponent that even they struggled with.

They, who were proud of their skills, were often pushed back while playing together, so Shin Wi, who defeated him like a child, was hard to believe even when he saw it with his own eyes.

I couldn’t even imagine the effort he put into the sword.

Ray shook his head after pressing the hood of his robe deeply in case he was found out.

“I just did what I had to do.”

It was never the words of the person who induced the homeless place to be easily attacked by black people on purpose.

However, the men who did not know the truth admired him on the contrary.

Rice is said to bow its head as it ripens.

It is not easy for such a strong person to be humble.

‘He’s someone who might soon become a master. He looks young, so he’s perfect for my lady’s spouse.’

Ray’s existence, which was already on one side of the list of sons-in-law in the men’s heads, has long since been pushed to the far side and has disappeared.

one of the escorts hinted.

“If you don’t mind, would you like to join us for dinner? This is not the place to say this, but it will not be the place to regret it.”
