‘The target is wrong?’
Eight sand pillars were writhing and choking Seun’s neck, but he quickly looked around while hastily distancing himself.
A wall of sand surrounding you, towering sand pillars, and a sorcerer with a sinister smile.
No matter how much I looked around, I couldn’t see any enemies other than the sorcerer.
Then, a statue standing tall on a sand dune caught my eye.
The statue to which the sorcerer had been praying remained unsullied even in the midst of this thick layer of sand and dust.
Moreover, the unique black color had become stronger than when I first saw it.
‘no way?’
-The constellation, ‘The Serpent Surrounding Time’ nods.
Leviathan’s reaction made me feel confident.
The one who is exerting power right before your eyes is that sorcerer, but the true source of power is…
– The gaze of the time begins to gaze at the ‘swallowed statue’.
It was a statue on a hill, not a sorcerer.
As if to prove it, the sorcerer’s relaxed expression hardened as soon as the object of his power changed.
“You! How dare you commit such an immoral act against the great Absolute!”
Kwakwakwakwa!
The sand pillars, which were originally eight in number, doubled in number and fell upon Seun.
However, that appearance only brought Se-un confidence.
‘The target of the attack is not the sorcerer, but the statue.’
Se-Woon, who thought like that, ran through the sand pillar and towards the stone statue.
“How can you approach the Absolute with that filthy body!”
A sand wall like a barrier appears around the statue.
Not stopping there, the sorcerer grabbed his staff and rushed at Seun.
His composure had already disappeared, and his face was filled with urgency. It was a natural reaction to his weakness being revealed.
-The gaze of the time is jealous of the power of the ‘Swallowed Statue’.
-It takes away the energy of the unknown.
-It takes away the energy of the unknown.
…
The sand wall stopped Seun’s advance, but it could not stop the power of jealousy.
A strange power that he had never felt before was felt, and an unknown force filled Se-un’s body.
A sorcerer who looks anxious and the power of jealousy that is fully manifesting.
Now was the time to show a decisive move.
-The stigmata react to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
-The second ability of the stigmata, ‘Frenzy’, awakens.
Seun’s stigmata glowed red.
Although it looked somewhat redder than usual, it felt more powerful than usual.
The eyes were as ferocious as those of a wild beast, and the fangs protruded sharply like those of a werewolf.
-The third technique of the Blood Wolf Sword Technique, Blood Wolf Attack, is strengthened through internal energy.
-The heat of martial arts is added according to the secret of Jahashin Gong.
There was one thing I realized when I used the power of madness in the previous floor.
I don’t know the exact reason, but among the many martial arts Seun possesses, the Blood Lang Sword Technique is the one that best suits his state of frenzy.
There, the mysterious power of Jaha Shin-gong, which had become stronger due to the surrounding heat, heated up Durangdal.
The sand pillars of several branches tried to swallow Seun, but with a single swing of the sword, the pillars lost their strength and collapsed as if by magic.
“This, this can’t be happening!”
As the sand pillar collapsed, what came next was a huge wave.
A tidal wave made of sand.
Not only was the view ahead covered in golden light, but a tidal wave was also rising behind them.
Before using the power of madness, I would have tried my best to avoid it, but now it’s different.
-The Blood Wolf Sword Technique’s sacrificial ritual, Blood Wolf Roar, is strengthened through internal energy.
-The heat of martial arts is added according to the secret of Jahashin Gong.
Aww-
As Seun swung his sword horizontally, the hungry wolf’s howl erupted in waves.
Dozens and hundreds of black energies spread out in the name of roar, leaving countless scars on the tsunami.
No matter how huge the sandstorm was, it could not withstand the loss of its support structure.
Behind the grains of sand that were collapsing in vain, the face of the sorcerer, whose expression was closer to fear than urgency, was revealed.
At that moment, Seun’s stigmata, which had been shining with the power of madness, revealed their light once again.
-The Satyr’s stigmata respond to the tale of the Blood Wolf Legend.
-The first ability of the stigmata, ‘Fear’, awakens.
The power of the stigmata amplified the fear the sorcerer had been feeling.
The thought of ‘what if’ became ‘no way’, and the thought of ‘no way’ became despair.
He lifted his cane, desperately trying to steady his trembling legs.
“Even so, it’s no use! At least here, there’s no one who can beat me!”
Could it be a difference in will? Or is it that the power of that statue is also providing mental strength?
Despite the power of fear, the sorcerer did not collapse at once.
The tremors that ran through his hands continued to his cane and the vibrations did not stop, but he did not give up.
A sand giant rose up from the spot where the tsunami had passed.
All around him, pillars of sand he had never seen before were rising up, and outside, a new sand tidal wave was approaching.
From the look of his struggling form, it seemed to him that this was the best attack.
However, Se-Woon was not flustered. He simply stared at the sorcerer with sunken eyes.
“This is the end! This is my victory! I will kill you myself and destroy Skabe!”
Sand giant?
sand spout?
Now that didn’t mean anything.
Everywhere I looked, there was sand everywhere, and it felt like the whole world was covered in sand.
There was nowhere to run, and swinging the sword only resulted in another sand attack.
But why is that?
Now, at the most dangerous moment, Se-Woon was able to smile more comfortably than ever before.
The sorcerer, feeling a sense of crisis, swung his staff with all his might, and the sand giants struck back with powerful fists.
Se-Woon didn’t take any defensive stance, and at that moment, a huge fist was approaching him, creating wind pressure.
Snap!
In a battlefield filled with noise, a sound that was particularly deafening was heard.
A sound like something very hard breaking.
Fuzz.
All the sand giants and pillars surrounding Seun along with him collapsed.
Only a thick sand fog remained to testify to the tremendous attack.
The sorcerer looked at the source of the sound with shaking pupils.
And there it is.
“Seo, it worked!”
Yasha, who had stabbed the statue of the Absolute with his sword, was shouting success to Seun with a stern expression.
* * *
The plan began to unfold just before Seun entered a state of frenzy.
-Yasha, can you hear me?
“Yes. … … Is this also magic?”
-Just keep your mouth shut and answer with your thoughts.
‘Is this what you mean?’
-yes.
Telepathy.
It was one of the magics that Seun didn’t use very often after he started using Clan Chat.
Yasha nodded quietly after hearing that.
Anyway, the sorcerer was so focused on Seun that he didn’t even look at her.
-The main body of the bastard is that statue. Can you see it?
‘yes.’
-If I approach, that sorcerer will desperately try to block me. If he only focuses on defense, even I will have a hard time breaking through.
‘I understand. That’s my role.’
-Yes. I’ll get your attention, so you can somehow get close to the statue and hit it with one blow.
‘All right.’
Immediately after finishing the conversation, Se-un ran towards the statue.
As planned, the sorcerer panicked and pulled out all his strength, creating a wall of sand around the statue.
An intense battle ensues.
Grains of sand are scattered everywhere, and the sunlight is blocked by sand dust.
There were several scenes where the shaking earth and the encroaching tsunami were threatening, even though they were not aimed at her.
Fortunately, the sorcerer’s gaze was solely focused on Seun. Thanks to that, Yasha was able to move around the barrier and get to the back of the statue.
‘Im here.’
-Well done.
‘But I can’t get any closer because of the sand wall.’
-There will be a gap soon.
Kwaaaaah!
The sand giants rose up around the sorcerer, sand pillars rose up, sand tidal waves crashed down from all directions, and the sky was obscured.
It was a great attack up until now, but this attack easily surpasses them.
Even from the sorcerer’s perspective, it was clear that the attack had drawn on all his strength.
Could that be the reason? The solid sand wall that had been protecting the statue began to lose its strength.
When the sorcerer started to move the sand giant in earnest, the sand wall split apart and a large crack appeared.
Yasha didn’t miss that moment.
Woof!
He lifted the sword he had trained with every single day to guard the South Gate.
He raised his sword, sharpened the blade as much as possible, and stepped forward with his right foot.
He took a deep breath and swung the sword with all his weight.
Snap!
Fortunately, there was no unfortunate incident of the sword bouncing off.
Even if it was an attack originally imbued with a black aura, it would have been impossible to damage the statue imbued with an unknown power.
However, now the sorcerer had drawn on the statue’s power to the extreme, and was considerably drained of his strength by the power of jealousy.
Thanks to that, half of the blade was able to penetrate the statue.
Fuzz.
The sand wall that protected the statue collapsed, as did all the attacks the sorcerer launched.
Between them, the eyes of the sorcerer looking this way with shaking pupils entered.
“Seo, it worked!”
“dare!!”
The first to respond to Yasha’s cries was the sorcerer.
He tightly packed the sand grains into the shape of a spear to attack Yasha.
The spearhead didn’t look all that good, perhaps because of the cracked statue, but it still seemed to have enough lethal power.
Her attacks could temporarily shock the statue’s power, but they were not enough to completely break it.
As she tried to muster up some strength to destroy the statue, Seun’s voice dug into her head.
-Avoid it.
Although I was skeptical, my body reacted immediately upon hearing those words.
She was a thorough soldier, and this was a possible reaction because she unknowingly recognized Seun as a superior being, that is, as her superior.
Pooboobook!
The sand spear the sorcerer hurled landed where she had been.
If I had been just a little bit late in dodging, my body would have been pierced before I could attack the statue again.
Just before the sorcerer launches his next attack.
Seun raised his sword high as if it would touch the sun and swung it.
-The Treasure Trove of Greed has been opened.
[The Sword of Flame, Flamberge]
– This sword was used by Renaud de Montauban, one of Charlemagne’s twelve knights, and had a blazing flame design engraved on the blade.
Is it because of the flame pattern that looks hot just by looking at it?
The sword raised high burned red as if imbued with the power of the sun.
The heat shot out with a single stroke, and traveled in a straight line towards the statue like a dazzling ray of sunlight.
“No way!”
There was no time to build a sand wall.
The sorcerer tried to fly away in a panic, but the flames were not satisfied with just consuming him.
like that.
Kwaruruk!
With the sorcerer’s scream, the ‘Swallowed Statue’ began to melt and crumble.
