Chapter 75. I was seeing, hearing, and feeling


    that I should be an archmage (1) .


    Nevertheless, I couldn’t fully capture it in my mind.


    – Kaaaang!


    – Kaang kang kagagak!


    Even in that brief moment of blinking, several sword strikes were exchanged. If it bites your foot, it follows you, and if it turns your body, it twists its sword and stabs you. If you block it, you will soon be standing behind your opponent and swinging your sword.


    The first sword on the continent.


    And Kalyan.


    While the two were fighting, Kirie clearly saw both their swords, heard their footsteps and breathing, and felt the flow of the swords. Nevertheless, there were a lot of battles that I couldn’t keep in mind.


    – Hwiik!


    – Percussion!


    Ten, who had jumped away from Calian’s sword range, lunged at Calian as soon as the sword passed in front of him.


    Calian quickly got rid of the sword in his hand and straightened his focus as much as possible, then rushed towards Ten and produced his sword once again. He raised it horizontally and blocked Ten’s sword that flew in the meantime.


    – Kwaaaaang!


    Even though you only take one step, you hear a loud noise as if the weight of your entire body has been added. I can see Calian’s expressionless mouth closing tightly. The sound of Calian’s feet being pushed backwards, bearing the weight of Ten, can be heard.


    Took touk touk touk.


    The wound that had been healing opened again. Drops of blood flowed from both palms, ran down the handle of the sword, and fell to the floor.


    – Kaaaang kaang!


    – Let’s go!


    I ignored the pain that seemed to be the sword handle digging into the open wound on my palm. And Ten ignored Calian’s small wounds.


    Because both of us here know very well that if we care about that much wound, we will die.


    – Quang!


    -Ssam!


    Ten released his strength from the sword that was blocked by Calian for a moment and then struck straight down, extending his sword at the speed of light. Then Calian raised his sword, which had been thrown to the floor, and stretched it out. however.


    – … Squeak!


    A sound that was never pleasant rang out.


    Couldn’t stop Ten’s speed.


    Long lines of blood were engraved on Kalian’s white forearms, which stood out particrly prominently between his thinly torn ck shirt and jacket. Calian, who realized that he had only cut his arm instead of his neck, quickly leaned back.


    – Boo!


    A heavy sound passed by the tip of Calian’s nose. A few strands of ck hair were cut off by the wind and scattered to the floor.


    – Taaaat!


    Calian’s body, which was straightened up with a flip of its back, wasunched straight at Ten. Then, after swinging widely, he extended his attack underneath Ten’s sword, which was being recovered.


    – Faaah!


    – Kwaaaaang!


    Ten, who continued to move in the direction he was swung, forcibly held on to his sword and lowered it. Just like that, Calian struck down the sword he had been stabbing at.


    – Ugh!


    A red sword is created in Calian’s hand as he throws away the sword that plummets to the floor. The sword, which was stretching out its blue spirit, flew towards Ten. A quick attack that cannot even be heard as the wind blows towards Ten’s neck.


    That moment.


    Ten’s new form disappeared in front of Calian. And almost at the same time, he appeared next to Calian.


    – Hwiik!


    – Scum!


    Ten extended his sword.


    Then, Calian’s new form at the tip of the sword also disappeared, as if hiding in the shadows.


    “That’s pretty fast.”


    Ten twisted his body after sending a briefment towards Calian, who disappeared at a simr speed to himself. So, before I knew it, I had dodged a sword attacking from behind me.


    Calian rushed towards Ten without stopping.


    It feels like young blue auras are scattering across the red sword. It feels as if the young dark blue auror of Ten’s sword is entangled in Calian’s sword. It feels like the floor is vibrating.


    – Quang!


    no.


    The floor vibrates. That’s not just an illusion.


    – Kaaang kaaaaang!


    – Kaaaang!


    From top to bottom, from left to right, from the neck to the waist on the other side, Tan continued to attack without any routine, targeting the top of his head.


    One step, two steps, three steps.


    Ten stepped back, deflecting and blocking Calian’s attack. Then, at some point, Calian’s sword flew toward his heart and he struck upward from below.


    Kyrie thought Calian’s sword would bounce again. Because Calian’s sword and Calian’s body were so light that they could not bepared to Ten’s.


    – Kwaaaaang!


    But I blocked it.


    Calian rushed forward, holding on to the raised sword as if trying to kick it away.


    – Ga-ga-ga-ga-gak!


    Calian’s arm, which used Ten’s sword as support, held up a red de, shot out.


    Sparks fly out of Ten’s sword as it touches the red de.


    Ten rolled his shoulders. He suppressed his sword and avoided the approaching bright red sword. However, the body could not bepletely removed.


    – Squeak!


    The sound of courtesy was heard again.


    A long wound appeared on Ten’s left shoulder, as if it had been scratched by sharp ws.


    Drurruk.


    Drip, drip, drip.


    Red blood flowed from the two people who exchanged shallow cuts. Ten, who didn’t even pay attention to that, raised his sword again. This time, Calian did not hold back and put away his sword. He took a new sword in his hand and kicked his feet.


    – Taaat!


    – Kaaaang! Kang! Kaang! Kaaaaang!


    – Kagagak kaang kang!


    As Ten ducks, a red sword passes over him. A fleeting moment of moonlight is reflected on Ten’s sword as he throws it away. Calian, who turned his body to avoid the attack, extended his sword behind his back and aimed at Ten’s waist. Ten’s sword suddenly changed direction and struck it again.


    The faster it disappears, the faster it blocks your path. If you step on the tip of your opponent’s sword and leap, you run first to where that foot willnd and send a sword strike. When the opponent’s sword gained strength, it was blocked with even stronger force. Each of them threw out their swords to hold on to each other’s lives.


    – Kaaang kang! Kaang!


    While Kirie was taking a deep breath, three more attacks went back and forth. Calian attacked and Ten deflected it. Ten swung his sword and Calian blocked it. Calian regained control of the sword that had lost its direction and entangled Ten.


    – Kaga River!


    The two swords shed as if crossed.


    A momentary power struggle ensues.


    Calian, who was looking at Ten as if he were piercing through the motionless swords, opened his mouth.


    “Yes. It’s fast. Quite a bit.”


    I gave an answer to what Ten said a long time ago.


    – Kaaaaang!


    Calian pushed Ten’s sword away with force. At the same time, he used the aura that swirled around his body a little differently.


    – Ugh…


    Calian’s aura, which was blue, turned red.


    I took a step forward, holding in my hand a sword that only glowed red.


    I’m crying!


    The smell of blood was strong inside the young body, which was unable to withstand the sudden change in the nature of the Auror. Calian swallowed it like he was breathing, which could hardly be called a habit anymore, and kicked his foot.


    – Coo!


    A heavy sound rings out.


    Calian, who turned the blue aura inside his body and strengthened the muscles of his arms and legs, lifted himself up as if he were flying.


    – Slut!


    Euria’s lightning, Arsene’s ice spear, A’s dagger, or nz’s arrow struck the red sword with a striking sound. Tan, who chose to block instead of dodge, held his sword firmly. I pointed the de toward the guard of the stabbing red sword.


    The red sword plunges down.


    stop it


    – Quaaaaaaaa!


    The two des shed as if they were going to break each other.


    Kirie’s hair swayed for a moment due to the wind that blew inte, then returned to its original position.


    “… It’s quite heavy now.”


    Kalian’s red mouth drew a long line as he spoke.


    This was because I saw Ten’s feet digging into the dirt.


    Then’s sword, blocked by the guard, made a sound of scraping bone. Hearing that, Ten’s eyes turned fierce as he faced Calian’s force.


    “You’re overdoing it.”


    “I have never dealt with Master without overexerting myself.”


    Ten twisted his sword to distract Calian’s attack and turned around. Calian, who had been in front just a moment ago but had dodged the master’s sword heading towards his back, rushed forward again.


    Ten 8 years ago.


    Bern at that time was facing his teacher, whom he had never beaten.


    – Kaaang kagagang kang!


    Ten was quite fast and received a fairly heavy sword strike. After that, he raised the sword in both hands with all his might and kicked his feet. Ten, who had flown to Calian’s doorstep at an unbelievably fast speed, thrust out his sword.


    Calian smiled a threateningugh and used his aurors again. I finally swallowed the heavy smell of blood rising up my throat.


    – Ugh!


    – Faaah!


    A small shield covering his arm was held in Calian’s left hand.


    A thinner and sharper sword was held in Calian’s right hand.


    – Kaaaang!


    – Whirr!


    He raised his shield, which seemed to be shing red light, and struck at Ten’s sword, then thrust out the sword in his right hand. Unable to let go of his sword, Ten lost his center of gravity for a moment and twisted his waist.


    Calian, who had thrown away the shield that had outlived its usefulness, used the magic mixed with Aura again.


    …… I’m crying!


    I swallowed it. So that nothinges out of your mouth.


    A sharp dagger was held in the left hand that had been holding the shield just a moment ago. Instead of holding the sword in his right hand, which was blocked by Ten, he held the dagger in his other hand. I stabbed it with all my might towards Ten.


    – …… Fuuk!


    There is a sound of skin being pierced.


    However, it is soon blocked by Tan’s aura that tightens its grip on the skin.


    Ten, who received a shallow cut from the unexpected attack, was bitten on the foot. Instead of charging again, Calian stopped still and removed the dagger.


    “You’re good at anomalies.”


    “Because there is no enemy in the world that attacks only in fair ways.”


    Calian, who changed what he had said back slightly, tightened his grip on his sword.


    “It doesn’t seem like you’re going out of your way and pulling out all kinds of tricks just to beat me… What are you trying to show me?”


    Calian did not answer.


    The smell of blood bes stronger. The red mouth depicts a deeper smile.


    And then he rushed towards Ten again.


    Because Ten was not one to back down just because his shoulder and back were slightly cut. Because I have never had someone of that caliber as a teacher.


    Ten tightened his grip on his sword.


    No matter how far back in time you go.


    No matter how much we exchanged swords withter-day Tens.


    – Kaaaang!


    ever so.


    – Kaaaaang kagang kaaaaang!


    – Kagagang kaang!


    Even if you use a sword with no restrictions on its shape!


    – Quaaaang!


    A loud noise rings out. The two swords shed again.


    Ten’s silver sword plunges towards Kalian.


    Calian’s red sword is raised towards Ten.


    Two swords that resemble each other be intertwined.


    * * *


    ‘Then I’ll leave too. Rest.’


    ‘Calian.’


    ‘yes.’


    ‘exnation.’


    ‘What do you mean?’


    ‘What I said earlier. grandee.’


    ‘When Brother Randel was there, he didn’t say anything. Have you been holding on to people who can’t stand being curious? You could have asked right away.’


    ‘answer. ‘Don’t bark.’


    ‘That’s literally it. Did you really intend to spend your life serving as the King’s older brother, vicemander of the Balkan Corps, or even receiving a new duke or marquess title? To that extent, I hope you have a smooth rest of your life.’


    ‘know. already.’


    ‘Are you asking this knowingly?’


    * * *


    – Kagagagak!


    A feeling as if the hairs on her entire body were standing on end enveloped Kirie.


    Whether you know that or not. The two, oblivious to their surroundings, continued to exchange swords.


    When I stretched out my sword, the opponent’s sword, which had disappeared before I knew it, flew in from behind. The sword of the person who dodged it came rushing in from the opposite direction. When you raise your body, you lift it. When you lower your body, you lower it. Those who read each other continued the attack and defense.


    – Ugh!


    – Ugh!


    Calian’s sword swirled as if it contained mes.


    Ten’s sword swirled as if it contained the sea.


    Toad, toad, toad!


    The blood flowing down my hand wets the floor a little more. Blood dripping from Kalian’s forearm, Ten’s shoulder, and waist in all directions.


    “ha.”


    Calian, whose attack was blocked, took a moment to catch his breath. Then, with his red eyes wide open, he kicked his foot towards Ten.


    – Ugh!


    Three daggers floated in the air.


    While blocking Tan’s sword, he read Tan’s movements and swung his sword towards Tan, sending the dagger at him.


    – Slut! Scum! Slut!


    The sword in Calian’s hand and the dagger in his hand flew towards Ten. He rushed at me, aiming for all the vital parts of my body.


    – Kagaga River!


    Ten’s new model moves like light.


    After striking away Calian’s sword that was charging in front of him, he took a step towards Calian and turned his body. I swung my sword without even having time to catch my breath.


    – Canka River!


    Ten twists his body after striking away the two daggers.


    The remaining dagger, excluding the one that fell out a little, was aimed at Ten’s forehead.


    -Ssam!


    Tan, who had been watching it until the end, moved his arm. He went around Calian’s side and stood behind him. The dagger fired by Calian on behalf of Ten, who moved faster than the flying sword, flew towards Calian himself, aiming for between the eyes. however.


    – Hwiik!


    Immediately, the dagger changed direction elegantly and pointed at Calian’s back. Calian, who turned with him, also thrust out his sword again.


    – Valid! Kaaaang!


    Calian’s sword wasing from all directions, creating the illusion of multiple swords rushing at him, and this time, the dagger aimed at the back of Tan’s neck was all blocked by Tan’s sword.


    The smell of blood rises up my throat once again.


    A tearing pain fills my entire body, which has been forcibly strengthened.


    The flower-like smile of someone who has forgotten the setting sun blooms.


    Ten, who was looking at Calian, was bitten for a moment.


    I didn’t even know how long it had been since I had dealt with the endlessly flying memorabilia, the daggers that would stab me whenever I got close, and the shield that blocked attacks.


    The surroundings were still dark and the night just continued.


    – Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!


    Ten pushed his sword under the red longsword and lifted both swords with his own strength. Then I twisted my body and held it in front of the dagger flying towards me. The dagger that bounced off Calian’s sword lost direction and stretched out before disappearing.


    – Kuung…….


    Tan kicked his foot again.


    Calian, whounched himself without dy, blocked Ten’s sword in the air.


    – Kaang kaang kang! Kaaaang! Kang!


    Even at the moment when they fell to the floor, the two new figures exchanging attacks scattered a dizzying light. The feet of the two men, who were wielding their swords while moving as if they were flying without a ce to stand, touched the floor.


    no.


    Only Calian’s feet touched the ground.


    – Toouk.


    Ten stepped on the tip of Calian’s sword and leaped again, changing direction in the air. Calian, realizing this, quickly turned his body and extended his sword.


    But Ten was no longer there.


    Shiny.


    Ten’s sword appeared from the opposite direction and rushed towards Calian’s neck. Unlike Kyrie, who didn’t even notice anything, Calian noticed it long ago and turned around. I raised my arms.


    However, Ten did not send an attack.


    – Shhh…….


    Tan’s appearance disappeared again.


    Calian stopped, lowered his eyes and concentrated.


    – …… Cooung.


    A heavy sound rang out that could never have been predicted that the sword would be so light. However, Kirie could not guess the direction from which the sound wasing. This is because there was sound everywhere and there was an illusion that there was no sound everywhere.


    Calian, who was holding his breath, quietly raised his head.


    Then at that time.


    – Slut!


    Tan suddenly approaches and extends his sword at a short distance from Kalian.


    Calian tightened his grip on the sword handle. Without even having time to turn, I moved my arms backwards. He extended his sword behind his back once again. And only after that did he turn his head.


    – Saaa…….


    It felt like time had stopped.


    Kirie felt that way.


    Kalian showed his back to Tan.


    The tip of the sword in Ten’s hand. It touched the neck of Calian, who was standing with his back to Ten and just turned his head.


    – …… Fighting.


    – Toad, toad, toad.


    A red thread appeared on the thinly cut pure white neck. Bright red blood, like Calian’s lips, sword-like eyes, is flowing down in drops.


    Kalian’s mouth drew a long arc.


    “We died together.”


    The tip of the sword that Calian held firmly.


    The tip of the red sword extended behind his back. Because I knew that it hadnded on the left chest of Ten, who was running after Calian.


    “… Yes. We died together.”


    Calian was decapitated and Ten was stabbed in the heart.


    died together.


    * * *


    ‘When I be king, my brothers will no longer be the king’s direct children, so the Sispanian blessing that was at least helpful will disappear the moment I wear the crown. Since I was the only one, I lived as Bern Secretia, the king, but you couldn’t do that. ‘There is nothing like the lifeline of the king’s brother.’


    ‘…… you.’


    ‘It’s good to hear, isn’t it? nz Rune Kairis, the king’s older brother and vice-captain of the Vulcan army. nz Rune Kairis, the King’s older brother and a duke or marquis somewhere. Rather than this. Archduke nz Rune Kyris… That’s what it’s called.’


    ‘Calian.’


    ‘yes.’


    ‘Speak clearly and ask properly.’


    ‘…… What.’


    ‘Is this really the position that you arranged for me?’


    ‘What do you mean by that?’


    ‘at all. ‘I don’t think so.’


    * * *


    Tan slowly withdrew his sword. Calian saw that and immediately put away his sword.


    I opened my mouth to convey my overwhelming feelings about having finally ‘died’ with Ten, despite all my efforts. I already know that I cannot be a match for yman yet, and that I was able to deal with Ten only because I mastered all of Ten’s swords, so I don’t have to worry about bing overconfident with today’s results. I opened my mouth to speak.


    “I wonder if you’re worried…!”


    – I’m crying!


    However, I swallowed the rising scent again and quietly closed my eyes.


    Even though the fight is over.


    The smile on Ten’s face was erased in an instant.


    Ten’s eyes turned fierce as he watched the aura swirling around Calian’s face for a long time. This is because I have finally realized what Calian wanted to show Ten by going to such lengths.


    “Since when have you been harmed by your own Aura?”


    Ten opened his mouth quietly.


    “The prince’s blue aura. Are you not able to control it properly?”


    Before I knew it, I was dealing with Calian with the same tone of voice that had returned. However, Calian, who had no power to pay much attention to such things, nodded.


    “you’re right.”


    “There haven’t been any other problems until now, right? But why?”


    “The magic power contained in one circle.”


    The voice paused for a moment and then continued.


    “There is a limit. Auras that are not integrated with magical power can only continue to umte as long as I hold the sword. However, the properties of Auras containing magical power and pure Auras are different.”


    Calian, who wiped away the blood that hade out of his lips, continued speaking.


    “… It’s getting harder, little by little.”


    To Dmirea, to E, and to nts.


    Her red lips drew a thin line as she revealed a fact that she could not bear to reveal.
