30 Years after Reincarnation, it turns out to be a Romance Fantasy Novel Chapter 123

Sling.

What Derek handed over was a famous sword in the shape of a gladius.

I don’t know where it came from, but it is clearly a sword forged by a master craftsman.

Otherwise, it would be a moment that can be grasped in one’s hand like this.

Woof.

“What did you give me?”

There’s no way it could happen from ‘Sword Ringing’.

A sword that reads the master’s mind and fighting spirit.

The so-called master swordsmen personally strike the swords that are imbued with spirituality and call them famous swords. These famous swords are so rare that they can only be found in the kingdom’s treasury, right?

And now, the sword that should be in that treasure vault is in his hand.

“… … .”

However, Lee Han did not get excited and swung his sword in the air in a calm manner as if he was taking the time to become familiar with the sword.

Phew, phew!

With each swing, the sword becomes faster, and its speed gradually accelerates rapidly.

wickedness-!

At some point, only an afterimage remains, and a faint ray of light appears instead of the blade.

Hwaaaaak…!!

As the dust around him began to clear away, Lee Han succeeded in becoming friendly with the sword.

Maximus saw this.

“Wow. Did you suppress the sword?”

“It’s disgusting to call crying against my will a curse.”

“That’s right! Just because a weapon is good doesn’t mean you should be dragged into it!! Whether in the North or the Central Region, there are many fools who don’t know that, but you do know that, Li Han…!”

“I said, Lee Han… Okay, I’m going to use the blade from now on, so if you have any complaints, tell me quickly. It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a sword.”

“Haha, that can’t be true. It’s actually fun to hear the sound of a fly. More than anything.”

First memory.

“To be fair, shouldn’t I also be able to use the blade?”

Maximus raised his right arm and reached out.

As if waiting for something to come.

“… … .”

“…?”

“Oh, just wait a minute. Looks like this guy is a little lost.”

“… I don’t know what this is, but do it quickly. The tunnel will collapse.”

“Just one minute, no, two minutes… Ah, here it comes!”

Only after the pointless comedy ended did Lee Han realize what Maximus had been waiting for.

Phew!

The spear, also known as the Battle Axe, floated through the air and settled into Maximus’ hand.

Kuung.

It was different from the common battle axe.

It was much larger and longer, and judging by the spearhead, it seemed to be shaped like a spear.

It had a brilliant light, and it was clear that it was an excellent weapon, no less than the famous sword he possessed.

Woof!

I have never seen such a loud noise before.

“What? The northern weapons are flying in the sky?”

“It’s a type of sorcery. They say that the body of the owner is connected.”

“That’s a desirable feature.”

An automatic refund function… .

That would be very convenient.

but.

“What a pity, that convenient weapon is going to be destroyed today.”

“How about that?”

The mighty gods took up arms.

This was like putting a gun to a wild beast, and it just so happens that those wild beasts are great marksmen.

And you know, the moment a beast that is smarter than a person takes up arms… .

Damn it!!

It’s just that it’s not a creature that was created to win.

* * *

The sword and the moon intersect.

It is common sense that a sword should break if it cannot withstand the weight of the moon, but that common sense breaks down and the sword easily withstands the weight of the moon.

The Bu-wol, which should have been slow to move due to its weight, seemed faster and lighter than swinging a sword, or even a bamboo staff.

A feast of outrageous brawn and skill.

Boom!

Kwaaaaang!

A trembling sound resonates that you would never think is caused by a blade striking the ground.

He tries to cut the black moon, and the moon tries to break the sword.

At the same time, they cleverly try to stab or split each other’s neck, chest, shoulders, etc.

Hit, cut, break and stab.

It’s a really simple battle.

But who could possibly intervene in this battle?

[keee!!]

[kiee!!!]

[kaaa-!]

But I guess there are people everywhere who don’t know how to value their lives.

Mini worms sense the death of Mother Worm,

The worms swarmed towards the enemy who killed their parents.

Dozens, hundreds, thousands…!

Where have you been hiding?

The number of worms boasting a frightening number is approximately 10,000.

All the worms gathered at the scent of the mother worm’s blood and rushed to seek revenge on the mother worm… … .

Crunch!

They picked the wrong time to intervene.

I should have intervened after the fight was over.

Puhwaaaaah!!

[!!!!?]

The worms began to die, or rather, were annihilated.

The two knights did not kill him intentionally.

In the first place, the two of them didn’t care about the worms and were just crossing their blades at each other, so who would have time to care about monsters?

The moment they lose focus on each other even a little, their bodies will be torn apart.

So they deliberately ignored the worms.

only.

Crunch!

[… k… ee… … ?… … !]

He tried to pounce on the knights, but was caught up in the aftermath of the fight and his body was torn in two or blown up.

Phew! Phew!

As their clash became more intense, the worms died more quickly.

The sword waves emitted from the collision swept through the worms, and the sword pressure crushed the worms and caused them to burst.

[KEEEE!!!]

A particularly large one among the worms let out its anger.

It was an expression of intense resentment that the inferior prey had killed their brothers and mother, and the large individual.

Wagjak, wagjak!

He ate the corpses of his dead mother and his brothers.

Cannibalism.

Winner takes all.

A monster is a monster.

A race that only eats their parents and siblings to become strong, and only takes revenge once they become strong.

That is why they are the natural enemies of mankind.

Knock knock!!

The worm grew so rapidly.

It was an abnormal growth, and the worm, which was only about 3 meters long, gradually swelled like a balloon and became more ferocious and disgusting.

The scourge and terror of the desert, the sand worm.

The sand worm, which is over 100 meters long and befitting such a majestic creature, has gained strength that surpasses its mother through instant growth.

If it’s now… … !

─Wow!!

[[!!!?]]

“What is this?”

Pfft!

Lee Han kicked away from his seat and quickly climbed onto the body of a giant sand worm.

Gungshin Tanyeong.

He shot out like an arrow, accelerating again and changing his footwork.

Application of the Gungshin Tanyoung.

Welcome Baguabo. The movement technique used in the previous day’s Ghost King Battle accelerated Lee Han’s body, and he displayed unpredictable speed that even the Sand Worm’s eight eyes could not track.

Not only is it dazzling, but there is nothing better for teasing giant monsters.

Phew, phew, phew!!

The slash that occurred while running a hundred meters in one breath eventually slashed the sand worm’s huge body, and the sand worm rapidly lost its vitality.

Although it had clearly become an adult and had a tough and hard outer shell, the outer shell did not function at all.

It was only natural.

How could one know?

The opponent was a human who had even brutally attacked a thousand-year-old troll known as the king of demons.

The sand worm, who did not recognize such a ‘superior beast’… .

“-How dare you interfere in a knight’s duel, you should know your place.”

Maximus levitated into the air and struck the Sand Worm’s head with a powerful blow.

Phagec!

What is in it is a flash of lightning.

Maximus’s blow that had killed the Frost Giant in the past was recreated at this moment.

– Lightning strike.

The strike, which contained lightning, was truly like a divine punishment falling from the sky.

[[—-.]]

… … I should have just run away.

The adult sand worm, which had developed a little intelligence, saw the darkness approaching with regret.

Kkwuddudduduk!!

* * *

Crunch.

“…Did you kill them all?”

“Hmm, I guess so.”

Although it was not intended, the two knights felt as if they had annihilated all the sand worms that had been living in the tunnels.

Although small and weak, it is an achievement, no, an event where 10,000 monsters were wiped out from the world in just 10 minutes!

Even though there was an adult Sand Worm among them, which was a very large monster, the two of them did not seem very impressed.

Because monsters weren’t of much concern to them right now.

“Hmm, 189 moves… Even the giants didn’t even have more than a hundred moves.”

“Do you fight while counting all of that?”

“I just figured it out naturally.”

“… This is why they are called geniuses.”

“Ahahaha! Stop it, it’s embarrassing to even hear people call me a genius at this age.”

189 moves.

It was the number of times the two knights clashed blades.

But even after clashing like this, there is no conclusion.

Considering that on average, duels between knights are decided within 50 moves, their duels were quite long-lasting.

Does that mean they fought roughly?

no.

Rather, he swung his sword with the determination to kill his opponent, and there was no hesitation in even a single swing.

Power only.

They could swear that it was a single blow that contained all of the power, skill, and will.

…only.

‘So this is what it means to have an opponent with similar stamina and resilience.’

Unfortunately, they don’t get tired.

Despite being a life-or-death situation, his stamina did not decline, and even his wounds healed quickly.

Ironically, the two were so similar that they could not even compare in terms of strength, endurance, or stamina.

The situation is like a hundred-point battle.

It might have been different if the types were different, but they were so similar that it was difficult to determine who would win.

That’s why….

“─Are you going to end it with one blow?”

A blow that takes the opponent’s life.

Maximus suggested that they end the match like this.

“Um, can I continue?”

He groaned.

It’s not that I’m afraid of losing my life, it’s that I’m sad that this match is over.

But Lee Han pointed upward.

Pass… .

Look at the underground world collapsing even faster than before.

“You wouldn’t want an ending where you die buried in a pile of dirt.”

“Euuum…!!”

Maximus expressed his regret at Yihan’s words with all his might.

I don’t want this match to end.

I wanted to keep doing it if possible.

It was a maddeningly tempting match that I wanted to do forever.

Even though such a precious and thrilling time was coming to an end, Maximus was simply sad.

That’s why-!

“What a gloomy day, having to take the life of the knight I like.”

“You don’t think at all that you’re going to die?”

“Of course, who would fight with the intention of dying?”

“… That’s true.”

Phew.

Kuung!

Yi Han sharpened the tip of his sword, and Maximus aimed the spear tip at Buwol.

Dddddddddd!

From the moment I had murderous intent, there was no turning back.

For one of them, this could definitely be the last day of their life.

But even though their swords and spears held murderous intent, their faces were calm.

They do not hate or detest each other, so although their swords are sharp with murderous intent, their eyes are calm.

And so.

“You’re stealing without even paying.”

“Hehe, sorry.”

He did not spare any blows.

Lee Han saw it.

The opponent, what Maximus ‘stole’ from him.

‘There’s a guy who just learns it by feeling.’

Sir. At some point, Maximus began using the unique skill known as Muscle Arts.

Through the clash, the initially awkward Kyung became sharper and grew in an instant.

Even the trio he called geniuses and the black-haired regressor couldn’t do something like that… .

He just took it and… experienced it and learned.

Maybe once I get a little more proficient, it will become more natural.

I had a feeling that it might work from the time I imitated the Baekboshin Kwon, or rather, made it my own.

‘Is this the perspective of a martial arts novel villain? … … This is quite a disgusting thing.’

There is a guy like that among the main characters in martial arts novels.

A guy who learns martial arts right away after seeing it.

And then there was this cliché scene where the enemies panicked and died in anger, and there was a reason for that.

‘He died of a vase, that’s it.’

If someone else instantly understands and better uses the skills you have spent your entire life learning and practicing, even you would be dazzled.

That’s absolutely unreasonable.

So talent is something unreasonable and makes people miserable.

“Oh my, it’s a sin to be an ordinary person… .”

“… … .”

“What, why are you looking at me like that?”

“No, of course I’m not saying I did a good job, but I’m saying this because I think you have quite a lack of conscience.”

“I?”

“Yeah, when you see something like this, doesn’t it feel like it was stolen only from me?”

“What are you talking about?”

“What are you talking about? The technique you are preparing now, isn’t that ‘my technique’?”

“Ah… … . This?”

Phagec!

Lightning flew from Lee Han’s sword.

Just like Maximus’ [Lightning Strike].

That’s why such absurd words came out of Maximus’ mouth.

He stole it too, but didn’t you steal it too?

However, Lee Han denies this.

It wasn’t exactly that he stole his skills.

I just got a new idea after seeing Maximus’s technique.

“Isn’t this the principle of your technique? Applying strong pressure to the grip of the weapon to create artificial friction, and calling forth lightning with the sword stroke. … Is that right?”

“… … .”

“I knew it. The principle itself is intuitive. It’s just a bit tricky because it requires insanely strong evil power and ingenuity.”

With a bit more force and madness thrown in here, the lightning strike would be completely reproducible.

“It’s so common that it’s funny if you can’t follow it.”

Lee Han shrugged.

He said that showing me how to do it openly is the same as stealing it without even knowing the principle.

“……her.”

Maximus laughed in vain at such a shameless and confident statement.

For the first time, the generosity disappeared.

Because it was that absurd.

‘Is it because they don’t know that common principle that no one can follow it?’

No matter how much you teach the knights of the North, they are not only unable to imitate it, but even when you explain the principle, they often get angry and say, “Don’t tease me!” or “Are you making fun of me!!”, but now the author says it’s easy.

But what’s even more absurd is….

Phew!!

“Still, thank you. Thanks to you, I think it will be possible.”

“… … .”

His skills are….

No, that’s not his skill anymore.

Rather, it seemed like I was looking at clothes that fit Lee Han perfectly.

What Maximus doesn’t have and Lee Han has.

It was freedom of thought and flexibility of ideas.

Dismissed!

The lightning spreads widely.

The blue spreading aura of the sword illuminated the dark underworld.

Hwaaaaak!

I fought the ghost king and awakened the plum blossom.

In Tristan, he was slashed with a sword by the knight Bale.

He attained Arahan during his fight with the Marquis.

And now, all of those realizations come together in a new way, with the idea of spreading new energy with the sword.

What he is showing is the swordsmanship of Namgungga, the famous swordsman of Anhui and the swordsman of the narrow-minded.

However, he does not like vague things like arrogant emperor and heavenly thunder.

So the swordsmanship and name he chose were….

“Boundless Sword.”

– The Sword of the Heavenly Palace.

The blue-tinged sword power literally resembles the blue sky, and the energy gradually covers the entire sword, creating a Chakram.

The chakram, the circle of swords, rotated faster and faster.

Threateningly, the more intense Lee Han’s aura becomes-!!

Lee Han, who had accomplished such an absurd transfer, asked.

“How is it, are you okay?”

“… …Who, who is calling whom a genius…?”

Maximus, who had a heart of iron that was never surprised by anything, was now even he stuttered when he spoke.

It will be the first time.

That is to say, he felt ‘awe’ beyond shock towards someone other than his older brother.

… … Is this what other people thought of him?

“Khuh…! Khuahahahahahahaha!!”

But soon a loud roar of rage burst from Maximus’ mouth.

Maximus was terrified.

The fear that I might die if I took that blow gripped my body.

To that extent, it was a sight and a power beyond imagination.

So Maximus…!

‘Ah, I’m happy! I’m such a happy guy!!’

Maximus felt a thrill that swallowed up even his fear.

Thank you for everything.

I was happy to be born with such abundant talent.

Thanks to that, I can fight people like that.

I’m happy to have someone like that in front of me.

So, can’t you fight with everything on the line!!

Gooooooo!!

An ominous aura emanated from Maximus’ spearhead.

If Lee Han took hints from Maximus’s technology and created a new technology here and now, Maximus is the opposite.

By stealing the technique of Kyung, he finally learned how to make his body stronger and use all his body’s strength with all his might.

A man with a body and talent bestowed by heaven, who had earned the name of a great warrior through endless struggles, had finally obtained the means to squeeze out all of his body’s strength.

There is a risk that the body may not be able to withstand the force and collapse… … .

‘Does that matter now?’

It doesn’t matter.

Kkuddeuk!

The spear screamed.

The wonders of the man Maximus,

─Strength gathered as overlapping phenomena occurred one after another.

Crackle!!

The lightning strike that killed the frost giant.

The technology became more destructive and transformed into something like a horn.

Let’s give it a name.

“It’s called [Sky Breaking].”

“… I know it’s not my place to say anything, but you really don’t have a sense of naming things.”

“Isn’t it great because it’s intuitive and simple!”

“How about breaking the heavens instead?”

“… That’s even stranger?”

“… … It’s just like a cult in name only.”

“?”

The two wanted to observe and explore each other’s skills a little more, which were the cornerstones of their respective skills, but unfortunately… .

Kookookookook!

The underground world was about to collapse in just ten seconds, whether it was because of their rampage or not.

So the two ended their conversation.

No, even if there is no conversation.

Wooooow-!

Gooooo-!

The final conversation will be a clash of blades and spearheads.

… … Some might say.

Why risk your life in a duel that will bring no fame, no glory, and no praise?

However, they will probably answer similarly.

It’s meaningless.

That kind of thing is nothing more than an illusion that will be scattered at any time by other people’s rumors.

That’s why what they needed was ‘now’.

The present moment, when we feel that we are alive in this world, is more precious and rewarding.

“───.”

So the two men simply lived the fleeting present without regrets and did their best.

So as not to leave any regrets at this moment.

Maybe that’s it.

Hwaaaaak───!

That’s probably why they can smile at any moment.

Blades and spearheads clashed amidst the cascade of collapsing earth and rocks, and the clear blue skies that could not possibly exist in the underworld… .

‘Changcheon (蒼天)’ illuminated the underground world.
