I Have Come To End This Fight

Episode 5. molting (5)

Yuri took John’s sword as if it were stolen and went to the square.

Suspicion arose from all over the place in the sudden progress of the situation.

“What happened? What do you mean by deal?”

“So, are you saying that Yuri is going to take a test or not?”

The relationship between John and Yuri.

Whether Yuri is qualified to take the Cradle Test, etc.

A number of doubtful questions mingled chaotically into the bewildered murmur.

However, the most embarrassing thing was the Irons family, who prepared for this stage.

“… Who is that child?”

At Ashraf’s hardened question, the vassals were busy looking at each other’s faces.

Even though Yeongjirae in the outskirts was Irons who rapidly expanded his influence, the number of Yeongjimin alone approached 20,000.

No matter how much they are in charge of administration, how can they know all the territories?

As they looked at each other like that, the vassal who seemed to be the oldest stepped forward.

“Probably one of the accepted refugees. I will find out before the end of the day and post it.”

“Do it.”

He nodded, but Ashraf’s stiff face didn’t seem to straighten.

It was also a stage prepared intentionally for today.

However, the attention that should have been directed to Gunther was flowing the other way because of Johann.

look at it now

“Wasn’t a man called Myungin coming to see our Confucius?”

“I know? Did you come to see him, not Gongja?”

Aren’t they already making fun of Johann’s choice of a commoner boy over Gunther?

“hmm… … .”

Ashraf let go of the uncomfortable planting with a low moan.

His gaze fell upon John.

‘John Redner.’

Why would he let his son go and give his attention to such an ordinary boy?

‘What are you… What did he see?’

Ashraf’s eyes could not be separated from Johann, as he could not shake off the rising doubt.

Meanwhile, Gunther, standing next to his father, was also immersed in his own thoughts.

‘Who is it?’

A person who looks the same age as you.

No, rather, he looked younger because of his small stature.

Disappointment appeared on Gunther’s face as he observed Yuri with curious eyes.

‘It’s not like it’s been trained?’

Even looking at the body that stood out through the shabby clothes, there was no sign of training.

I have to take good care of my body to have a more balanced body than my peers.

Even so, the master used a dragon shield that could only be used once in a lifetime for that boy.

A completely incomprehensible choice.

And that kind of question came to mind in the same way as the Black Swordsmen.

“hmm… … .”

The gaze of the 8th leader of the Black Swords looked at Yuri, who was relaxing his shoulders in the center of the plaza.

‘I don’t understand. An inexorable sword used a dragon plaque for a boy like that?’

One of the few strong people recognized by his master.

I had high hopes for him because he was a talented person.

‘Why is he that guy?’

The boy who was recommended by Yohan fell far short of the expectations of the 8th leader.

physical development.

gait.

exhaled breath.

None of them showed any signs of discipline and training.

Furthermore.

‘I can’t even feel the traces of mana.’

If it was his skill at the official 7th level, he could notice the reverberation of mana, unless it was deliberately hidden by an official 8th or 9th level.

‘There’s no way that guy could be like that.’

If so, it means that the boy did not accumulate any mana, the basis of horsemanship.

This was a very serious problem.

Undoubtedly, among the tens of thousands of talents who have passed Yoram’s qualification test over the past 50 years, there will be no one who has not mastered horsemanship.

‘Even the inexorable sword wouldn’t know this.’

Even so, the fact that he used the dragon plaque means that Yohan saw something he did not know.

‘I’ll have to check what it is from now on.’

Captain 8 nodded.

“Begin.”

At the command of the leader, Jo Won, who had dealt with Gunther, stepped forward and shouted.

“He who answers the test, let him come forward.”

Then, a dull voice returned.

“Are you already out?”

“… Say your name.”

“Yuri Holland.”

The black sword crew member’s brows twitched a little at the sight of the slightest sense of tension.

However, the black sword member, who regained his composure, spoke in a loud voice.

“From now on, according to the law set by the master of the great sword, in the presence of 5 members of the 8th Black Sword, the qualification test for Yoram has begun! The test method ends with an exchange of days. Come in whenever you’re ready.”

The method was not different from Gunther’s test, and after the announcement, the black sword crew drew their swords and waited.

He looked relaxed, as if he was inviting me to come and see him whenever he wanted to.

Looking at the black sword crew, Yuri also pulled out John’s sword.

Seruk-.

A silver and black undulating sword body appeared out of the scabbard.

John’s sword was a narrow sword like the sword of the black sword master.

The only difference is that the tip of the straight sword is slightly curved?

It was a style of sword that the descendants of the ancient East settled and spread in the Central Continent.

And even at a cursory glance, John’s sword was enough to be called a treasured sword.

Yuri’s impression of holding such an object in her hand was simple.

“It’s heavy.”

The weight of the sword, of course, and the weight of the heart were too heavy.

The identity of the weight Yuri feels is fear.

‘Aiming a blade at a person… How much?’

Yuri didn’t hold the sword after realizing the curse.

Because if I grabbed the pointed blade, I felt like I would summon another monster.

Because of that, it felt like being swallowed up by a curse.

In order to live as long as possible, he naturally distanced himself from the sword.

That time is over 7 years.

Holding the sword again after a long time, I naturally remembered the day I summoned the monster for the first time.

The feel of the knife in your hand.

[aaagh!]

A scream that rang in my ears as if it was being torn apart.

[Chao-]

A red liquid that stains the retina.

Yuri’s pupils shook for a moment at the fragments of memories that came to him clearly, but he soon regained his composure.

Yuri, who gave strength to the hand holding the sword, opened his mouth to the Black Swordsman.

“I’m warning you.”

“… … ?”

“I can’t control my strength. You know how to survive.”

The brow of the Black Swordsman, who faced him at Yuri’s playful warning, was greatly distorted.

There was bewilderment in his eyes.

Yuri let out a slight sigh at the Black Swordsman’s attitude as if he was ignoring his warning.

‘I warned you. Even if someone dies, it’s not my fault.’

Yuri, who justified himself, threw down the scabbard and raised the sword with both hands.

Then, the tip of the sword swayed greatly.

The weight of the sword could not bear it, and it seemed to be burdensome.

People grumbled about this.

“Tsk, can’t you even lift a sword properly?”

“How can I pass the test of the cradle like that?”

Not paying attention to the people’s whispers, Yuri let out a long breath.

New fluid- New fluid-.

Yuri’s mind focused on the sword in the long, repeated breath, and the surrounding noise disappeared.

Feeling as if only you and one sword were left in the world.

At the same time, a rapidly expanding sensation.

It felt like everything around me was being projected directly into my brain.

A look at yourself from behind.

The act of pointing a finger at oneself, etc.

Everything within a radius of a few meters was read in detail, and time in the world passed slowly.

‘This is not enough.’

Normally, it would have stopped at this point.

In the meantime, this was enough to overcome many difficulties.

However, the person he was facing now was the famous Black Swordsman.

It’s not enough to just soak your feet.

It should be covered up to the top of the head.

‘let’s go!’

Having made up her mind, Yuri set the sharp edge of her mind.

At the same time, Yuri felt as if her mind was being sucked into the sword.

‘Kuu!’

A sensation that I feel again after 7 years.

Soon after, I felt a sense of floating floating as if my body was submerged in water, and I got goosebumps.

‘It’s terrible, really!’

The feeling of drifting barefoot on the endless expanse of the ocean.

Not wanting to go through this terrible sensation again, Yuri hadn’t tried to grab the sword.

It was because I wondered if I might even forget my identity while constantly drifting.

‘Wake!’

Yuri got his head together.

This was just the beginning.

‘come!’

And would that have been a sign?

-Kreur… … .

An animal cry came from one side of Yuri’s consciousness.

‘He… come!’

-Kreurreuk!

Along with the sound of the beast that rang again, a black shadow approached the glass in the vast sea of selflessness.

Like a huge whale attacking from under the surface.

Chow ah!

The black figure, which rapidly grew in size, swallowed the glass drifting in the sea.

And starting from this, a change occurred in Yuri in reality.

“what? Doesn’t it look a bit dark?”

“I know? Will there be a shower?”

The surroundings were noticeably darker than before.

That was the beginning.

Tsureuk-.

Beneath the glass’ feet, a shadow swayed.

It was a minor change at first, but as the shadow began to climb on Yuri’s body, everything changed dramatically.

“uh?!”

“Me, me?!”

The shadow that rode up on Yuri’s body soared vertically and increased in size.

0.01 seconds.

In an instant, the black energy swelled to the size of a house, so it felt like it suddenly appeared in the eyes of ordinary people.

and.

Kruck-.

Two holes appeared in the black shadows.

The two eye-like holes looked around and curved like crescent moons.

Kkeuk -.

There was even a huge hole presumed to be the mouth, and it was torn on both sides.

Kyakyakya-.

It was an evil smile that could be felt as a sound even though there was no sound.

“Me, me!”

“omg?!”

People were frightened by the appearance of ghosts, demons, or evil spirits.

“W-what is that! Ears, ghosts?!”

“A monster, a monster!”

“Demon, the devil has appeared!”

Horror bursts out here and there.

Frightened, they backed away.

But what surprised me more than anyone else was those who realized what the black shape created by glass was.

‘That, that?!’

‘Nonsense!’

Captain 8 of the Black Sword and Ashraf Irons.

Through accumulated experience, each strongman who reached the 7th dan was able to realize what the shape above Yuri’s head was.

‘devil? It’s not like the devil!’

That black figure that floated above Yuri’s head was not to be expressed in such vulgar words.

For those who walk the path of nothingness, it is a dream and a goal that becomes a direction.

The 8th leader of the Black Swords and Ashraf let out screams that sounded like screams at the same time.

“Wow, incarnation?!”

“avatar?!”

incarnation.

Or, it is called by various names such as “transcendental form”, “idea”, “realization of images”, and “avatar”.

Also, the form was as varied as the name it was called.

Some in the form of a sword.

Some in the form of giant beasts.

For others, as a beautiful flower.

Incarnation did not have a specific form, and not much was known about it.

Even so, there was only one reason why Ashraf and the 8th leader of the Black Sword were so surprised to recognize the incarnation.

Known theories about incarnation.

Because the presence or absence of that incarnation was the criterion for distinguishing between a certified 9th dan and a master.

In fact, the only beings who could incarnate were those called masters.

‘Outrageous!’

‘This is nonsense, this… Could this be possible… … !’

There were many cases where even a genius who trained all his life could not pass the stage of incarnation and ended his life in the official 9th Dan.

However, an ordinary boy who has not even accumulated mana unfolds the incarnation of being the exclusive property of a master?

I never even imagined… No, that couldn’t have happened.

However, to deny this, the one that appeared in front of them was clearly an incarnation.

Evidence too clear.

They were confused by the gap between the common sense they knew and the reality that unfolded in front of them.

Then I realized.

Why couldn’t they recognize that boy’s specialness?

Also, why did John go so far as to make that boy respond to Yoram’s test while wearing a precious dragon shield?

‘He recognized it!’

John is also a person who has risen to the ranks of masters.

Since it was an existence that reached the same level of incarnation, he must have recognized it.

What does the boy named Yuri Holland have in mind?

Meanwhile, John’s mouth twisted as he watched the incarnation realized by Yuri.

“Cheuk, pheuheu!”

Excitement, joy, satisfaction, enjoyment, ecstasy, ecstasy.

A ray of madness mixed in a storm of emotions.

“at las… … .”

Occasionally, no, there are beings who are born with talents beyond common sense with a very rare probability.

A talent that is like the height of absurdity that ordinary beings cannot possess even if they are reborn dozens or hundreds of times.

Mutants who are born with a level that others can’t reach even if they work hard for the rest of their lives.

A representative example of this was Luke Rider, the ruler of the world.

A natural talent that will never come out again.

Everyone in the world was convinced of this.

That someone with the same talent as the Sword Master would never be born.

that such a thing is impossible.

But there was.

On the edge of a distant continent, a monster with the same talent as the sword master.

“The monster kid… … .”

Johann’s eyes glistened, and his mouth split left and right, revealing a ferocious smile.

“You threw off your human mask!”

Starting from John’s murmur.

Kyakyakya-.

The black monster created by Yuri attacked the Black Swordsman.
