Return of the Frozen Player 563

A few times to open the lips and a few times to close them again.
Mio couldn’t even utter a word.
‘I do not know.’
Why is the man in front of me acting like this all of a sudden?
How should you react in this situation?
because I couldn’t know
‘I want you to learn the simbeop?’
You said it was your mother’s request to deliver this?
Then why did you want to kill yourself in the first place?
‘Could it be, to give me time to learn the simbeop?’
she shook her head.
It’s a leap.
That’s just self-justification, trying to think too well of this situation.
‘Why should I be confused by the person who tried to kill me?’
I don’t know. I really don’t know.
Squeezing her nose, she mustered up the courage to open her mouth.
“choux… … !”
But before the words were finished.
– Ki hee hee.
– Kihi? Hi-Hi.
The oni hiding behind the trees came out one by one under the moonlight.
Cut, cut.
The jars hanging around their necks made a loud noise.
The cool demonic spirit emitted by the oni attacked them in an instant.
Shut, who could not take his eyes off them, looked ahead and said.
“You are strong.”
“… … Yes, the oni are strong.”
Although he injured one leg,
Aren’t they the ones who ate even the class demons?
To be honest, I wasn’t sure how many minutes the suit would last.
“30 minutes.”
said the suit.
“No matter what happens, I’ll drag it out for 30 minutes.”
“why… …
“Does that question still matter? A Tenmei Mio I know would make a smarter decision.”
I understood in my head.
that he was right. He knows he doesn’t have a choice.
‘Soon the oni will attack the suit.’
Whether he lasts 30 minutes or not, this unique barrier disappears when he dies.
When the time comes, he will face the Bush Queen.
‘I can’t win in my current state.’
I don’t know what kind of effect this simbeop has, or how great it is.
‘The only thing I can rely on right now is this… …
Faced with reality, Mio bit her lip and stepped back.
Suit, who confirmed that her presence was moving away, smiled a little.
‘You still have a lot of affection, sister.’
Because of that, I really liked it and followed it a lot.
Even if her behavior and tone were blunt, she was a warm person who knew how to be considerate of others.
‘Please, I hope you get something useful from the secret level of the founder.’
What he handed over was the secret psychic method of Tenmei Kai Sei, who was called swordsman in the distant past.
In fact, I don’t know what kind of usefulness a relic from the era when there was no magic power would be now.
Nevertheless, he had to hand her that secret salary.
‘… … Please, I hope your prophecy is correct.’
That is the wise woman of Cheomseongdae.
Because it was the advice that ‘Seo Mi-rae’, who knew how to see the future, left to herself.
-Now, then… … you should play with me
The suit, which floated Japanese on top of the helmet, laughed.
The oni couldn’t read it, and always rushed at him like a swarm of bees.
* * *
Aaaaaang!
Mio was blown away by the explosion from behind.
I turned around.
In the clearing illuminated by the moonlight, the suit struggled against dozens of oni.
A person who doesn’t know what’s inside.
I still can’t understand his heart or thoughts, but it’s true that he created a golden opportunity.
‘We can’t let this opportunity go to waste.’
Mio calmly opened her arms.
– What a swordsman should put on his sword is his heart, not face or appearance.
The moment she read the first sentence written in elegant handwriting, her eyes twinkled.
‘This is it.’
This was the reason why he thought that if he mastered this technique, he could become stronger.
‘Perhaps, the ancestor may have already reached the end of the road I am walking on.’
The enlightenment he learned while rolling his not-so-short life on the battlefield.
Because it was only contained in the first sentence.
She turned the page back excitedly.
‘It’s a mental method.’
The mental method written there is Qi (氣).
He was guiding a new path for what he now calls magical power.
stop.
Mio, who was frantically flipping through the pages, suddenly stiffened.
‘wait a minute. This… …
The more I read, the more familiar that mental method became.
It had to be.
That mental method was close to the prototype of the current family’s main mental method, ‘Cheongwolsimbeop’ or ‘Jeokilsimbeop’.
” ah.”
Round doesn’t always mean good.
Does that mean that it is old and old?
‘My family has been steadily improving the simbeop since the age of gates opened.’
In the distant past, simbeop was only a minor disease
If it was only for the purpose of protecting health.
In recent years, it has been improved as a combat simbeop suitable for subjugating large monsters.
Feelings of desolation rotted in my heart like a wave.
The simbeop organized in the secret level was not superior to what he had learned.
‘Was what I was chasing an illusion?’
I vaguely thought it was a breakthrough.
I thought that there must be some great secret or simdeuk hidden in the secret class and simbeop left by the founder.
Whoops! Quaang!
A continuous explosion rang in my ears.
‘Anything.’
Something has to be done.
At this rate, I could never beat Valencia Citrine.
The time the suit earned was also passing in vain.
Sarak-
Her eyes that turned over the bookshelves
It sank.
‘This.… “
After the passage of the Simbeop, a short diary was written on the back page.
-I gave the names Hyung (形) and Shim (心) to the two secret classes completed in my later years, respectively.
It is probably the ‘Purple Gwangcheondo’ and ‘Purple Gwangcheonsimbeop’.
-The completeness of this booklet containing the method is
There is no doubt about it. I think I received the undeserved title of swordsman thanks to this mental method.
I don’t think it would have been possible in the distant past.
In the first place, the existence of the energy that the warriors were crying for is always debated in the academic world.
-However, the meaning of a booklet containing herbivores is quite different.
‘The meaning is different?’
Mio’s eyes narrowed.
Because it made me feel like I knew the secret of the second chorizo, which I felt was impossible.
-In the upper part of Choshik, I recorded some practical martial arts that I would like to pass on to future generations. I am confident that it is at a level that can be used in any era. However, the herbivore recorded on the lower part is simply my delusion.
back. The bookshelf he was holding was crumpled.
Because what he suspected turned out to be true.
‘Are you saying those ridiculous herbivores were delusions?’
As Mio was about to close the book with a painful expression on her face, one sentence caught her attention.
-I am. I wanted to embrace the sky through my sword.
The swordsman’s heart cries for no reason
It was a sentence.
As if possessed by something, she put the next sentence in her eyes.
– A clear sky, the cold moonlight, a red and lonely sunset, and birds flying in the sky.
-All of those things made my heart flutter. I wanted to put them in my sword.
This was something I was familiar with.
Right now, the Tenmei family’s main swordsmanship is ‘Red Day’ and ‘Blue Moon’.
In other words, it was the red sun and the blue moon.
– I only looked up at the sky like a person who went crazy.
– Even though the sky may all look the same to someone, it is because the sky looked different every moment to me.
– I didn’t want to miss any kind of sky. It was so painful that I couldn’t take my eyes off it.
I could feel what he must have been like.
I would have loved you more than anyone else. sky.
-Looking up at the sky, he swung his sword once.
– He swung his sword once and looked up at the sky again.
– Flowers bloomed, cicadas cried, autumn leaves were dyed, and snow fell.
– The sun rises, the sun sets, the moon rises, the moon sets.
-When the thick beard reached down to the navel.
-People called me swordsman, and my sword contained the sky.
Mio’s heart beat fast.
Suddenly, I wanted to swing my sword like crazy.
She barely resisted the urge and read the sentences quickly.
-If there were a million swords in the world,
I think it can hold a million hearts.
– Specify once again. What a swordsman should put on his sword is his heart, not face or appearance.
“mind.… ”
something you already knew.
No, this is what I was mistaken for knowing.
-If any of my descendants see this sentence and agonize over it, keep that in mind.
One letter, another letter.
Words that must have been written hundreds of years ago gave her hot inspiration and emotions.
-You must not follow in the footsteps of others. Focus more on leaving your footprints and train yourself.
– Ask endlessly. What does your sword want to embrace?
-What form does the sword deeply embedded in your heart take?
-If the moment comes when you can confidently answer this question.
Is it an illusion?
In an instant, I felt that the next sentence was dazzlingly bright.
– You are the greatest master.
Quarreung!
Thunder strikes in my head.
Mio unwittingly drew the knife.
‘Stuck in my heart… … The shape of the sword.’
Whoo! Whoo!
Tao splits the wind.
realize at the same time
‘chain. It’s a chain.’
I remember that it wasn’t like this at first.
However, as he learned the family sword and followed their orders, the chain gradually grew thicker.
It soon became a thick chain that bound her freedom and heart.
all.
Ask yourself.
‘Was the shape of the sword I wanted a chain?’
while questioning.
A strong sense of repulsion wells up, surprising even oneself.
‘no.’
All she wanted was more freedom than this.
The sword she wanted to wield was not so frustrating.
‘more.’
more free
‘ more.’
A sword that flies higher.
‘More, more, more!’
If what the founder had embraced was that lofty sky.
She dreamed of soaring freely through the sky.
The power that goes into the hand holding the sword becomes lighter.
Whoa!
On the other hand, its power was strangely strong.
charrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
Let’s forget everything and wield the sword like mad, and the chains that bind our hearts are released one by one.
Finally, the kernel of the chain revealed itself.
“ah.”
She stopped moving and smiled.
A small pinwheel was attached to the handle of the sword he held deep in his heart.
there was.
“… “wind.”
A wind that can reach anywhere and go anywhere.
‘I remembered.’
He longed for the freedom of the wind.
the moment you realize that.
Dizzy messages floated before Mio’s eyes.
[The Master of Swords (S) rank has risen to Master of Swords (EX).]
[Optimization (A) grade has risen to Optimization (S).]
[The Enemy Heart Act (A) and the Cheongwol Heart Act (A) are changed to the ‘Thousand and One Love Heart Act (S)’.]
[The title, ‘One Great Master’ has been acquired.]
[The title, ‘Swordsman’ has been acquired.]
Close your eyes. I seemed to know now.
What was tightly bound by the chains of the past
was his own mind.
Now that the chains were released, his sword and steps could go anywhere.
She put her money on the ground and bowed in thanks.
“Greetings from Mio Tenmei, the current head of the Tenmei family.”
The genius (天才) smiled brightly at the genius (天才) hundreds of years ago.
“I will not forget the teachings of the founder.”
As if in response, a cool breeze blew through her hair.
