Chapter 1576 – 58. Heaven’s Talent

Hair as fine and silky as ebony wood

Lotus flower growing on the ground

Golden eyes resembling nasturtium flowers

A sharp nose like a famous sword, refined with great care by a craftsman

Pale, pure white skin that stimulates the protective instinct

Red lips that complete beauty as if highlighting the peak of Hwaryong

A woman who is better suited than anyone else to be described as a person of unrivaled wealth

“…Seolhyang.”

It was her.

She was her companion who shared her life and death in the North Sea, and she whom she regarded as her younger sister.

She was said to have been kidnapped by a demon lord who crossed the dimension

It appeared in the ruined home of the elves.

“…How did you get here?”

I even feel embarrassed by the completely unexpected situation.

Not anyone else

She

How could she appear in the ruined home of the elves?

As if it were the evil beast of this tragedy

“…”

There was no answer from Seolhyang.

I just stare here with eyes that are unwavering like a quiet lake

“…Do you know someone?”

It was none other than Selena who broke the silence in that strange confrontation.

She felt puzzled by the unusual atmosphere between the two people.

“I know.”

He was a very precious colleague who shared life and death and ups and downs in the past.

“I don’t think they recognize you over there?”

If you’re an acquaintance, it’s normal to at least pretend to know them

The other person didn’t even show any reaction.

I just stare at this as if I was looking at a living thing I encountered for the first time

‘Could it be that you don’t recognize me?’

It could have been so.

Even though her face was the same, her hair, eyes, and even her mood had completely changed.

“Seolhyang, Nada, Jang Seon-woo, you may be embarrassed because his appearance has changed from before, but … Jang Sun-woo is still the same as you know.”

Just in case

Emphasis was placed again.

She knows who she is

But there was still no reaction from Seolhyang.

I just watch this way with my twinkling eyes

How long did such a strange confrontation last?

Tatak

Seolhyang, who was sitting at the base of a tree, raises her body up.

Seueuugh

And then he slowly lowers the extremely sharp knife.

Wow

At that moment, the atmosphere changes suddenly.

“Huh…”

“Keuuuuu u looking up

-…It’s heavy…It’s really…Heavy…So…Ugh…

-..Keuuuuu ugg

An enormous sense of intimidation began to weigh down the whole world.

‘It’s different.’

The only being who can be free from that overwhelming pressure

Sunwoo’s expression becomes infinitely more serious.

This is because I could feel it instinctively.

Current Seolhyang

That it is a completely different entity from the original Seolhyang

‘..Much more..Stronger..’

Just by coercion

It even overwhelms Bahamut, the red dragon that brings destruction, one of the seven rulers of the continent.

‘Moreover, the temperament itself has changed.’

The essence of her mastering the martial arts of Amipa is none other than Buddha nature

Like a Buddha saving foolish sentient beings, he was benevolent, profound, and warm.

But for her now, she can only feel the bitterly cold murderous intent

I didn’t feel anything.

She was reborn as a completely different being from her original self.

‘…What on earth happened…Seolhyang.’

I couldn’t figure it out at all.

What on earth happened so far?

Why has it changed like that?

The car that was so questionable

Seolhyang’s sword, which was hanging down, is swung.

And the world split apart.

****************

It’s a pretty common cliché.

This is what happens when a captured comrade changes sides and becomes an enemy.

There are various reasons.

Maybe he was lured by gold and silver treasures

A loved one may have been held hostage and threatened

He may have been brainwashed in some strange way.

And the comrade who returns as an enemy comes back with a power-up that cannot even be compared to before.

Yes.

For example, like now

Seogeogeokeuk

Cuuuuuing

Single sword

It was just one sword.

The reason she turned the lush forest into a barren wasteland

“…What the hell…”

Jelly, Jelly, Jelly

The hand holding the sword feels numb.

A slash that came without your knowledge

That slash that far exceeds body vision

I followed my instincts and managed to block it, but

The extremely heavy shock could not be completely relieved.

A tingling shock is transmitted directly to the wrist.

‘…Damn.’

Why did such a common cliché happen to me?

I’m getting irritated.

“What..What..Is this..”

“The forest… Has disappeared!?”

-With just one sword…Such destruction…Is possible…

-…Monstrous…Human…Where on earth did such a monster come out!?

Meanwhile, the party members who were surprised by the scene unfolding in front of them could not help but be astonished.

The lush green forest that stretched beyond the horizon has become a wasteland.

With just one sword

It has completely disappeared, as if it never existed from the beginning.

I couldn’t help but feel shocked.

This was an overwhelming destructive power that even the seven rulers, Bahamut, could not dare to imitate.

At that time when everyone was so shocked

“I want everyone to leave their seats.”

Seonwoo, who had been silent, slowly opened his mouth.

“Yes? Take a seat?”

“What is that..?”

Runael and Eleya asked back in confusion.

Are you asking me to leave suddenly?

What on earth does that mean?

“This is not an opponent I can protect and fight with.”

Sunwoo opened his mouth with a rather serious expression.

I was able to guess just by feeling the atmosphere.

Now Seolhyang

The fact that he is more powerful than any being he encountered in Panthesia

He is not a being who can relax enough to fight while protecting someone.

“…That strong?”

Selena asked with a vaguely serious expression.

The person who was full of leisure wherever and whenever was the man in front of me, Jang Seon-woo.

He relaxed and spoke seriously

It was because I felt uneasy for some reason.

“Stronger than anything I’ve ever met here.”

Enough to surpass not only the apostles of God who descended the angels, but even the seven rulers, Bahamut.

“… I can’t believe … That such a delicate woman … She is so strong …”

I couldn’t believe it.

At first glance, she was a woman so delicate and fragile that she could fly away when the wind blew.

She is such a super-strong person that even Sunwoo gets nervous.

“…I understand anyway…I can’t be a burden..”

“…You must be safe…Seonwoo…”

“…I’m really sorry I couldn’t help you..”

Selena and Lunal Eleya were convinced.

If he, who has absolute power, is nervous, he will be nothing but a burden.

-I don’t feel like it, but I will follow your opinion…But…Never be defeated…Benefactor…Yet…I have a mountain of favors to repay you…Disappearing without even a chance to repay. It must be a foul

The guardian dragon, Lasillus, also agreed and cheered for him.

-Don’t worry! Because I will listen carefully!

Bahamut opened his mouth to her with an excited voice.

I was planning on jumping out at this opportunity.

“You stay.”

But unfortunately, the plan fell apart before it even started.

-Uh…Why!?

“Because you don’t need to be protected.”

Although there was a difference in level, he was not weak enough to die in the aftermath.

Of course, the biggest influence was the thought that it didn’t matter if I died.

-I…I don’t want to die either!

Bahamut expressed his disapproval.

I knew it well myself.

The woman swinging the sword in front of me

The fact that she is a powerhouse of a level higher than herself

If you make a mistake, even you, one of the seven rulers of the continent, can be swept away and die.

Naturally, I couldn’t help but feel embarrassed.

How can she tell me not to leave alone?

“Survive well on your own, I trust you, Yongran.”

-Yongran!?! I am Bahamut! For some reason, an unsophisticated name is a no-no! And I don’t want that kind of belief!

Yongran

I don’t know why, but the tone itself is an uncomfortable title to listen to.

“Did Yongran talk back?”

Seonwoo frowned and glared at her.

Flinch

-… Yongran… It’s a nickname that I feel affectionate towards… I like it… It lives up to my trust! I will work hard to survive!

At that annoyed look, Bahamut changed his expression and immediately changed his stance.

The moment I encountered his irritation

This was because it reminded me of the terrible pain I suffered, unable to live or die.

Just like that, all the other party members except Bahamut, or Yongran, left.

“Thank you for waiting.”

Once the group had all left safely, Seonwoo looked towards Seolhyang and opened his mouth.

After the first blow that turned the dense forest that stretched beyond the horizon into a wasteland

She didn’t make any movement.

She was grateful for this.

If only she had separated

To protect the group

You must have been quite exhausted

“…”

Despite that gratitude, Seolhyang still had no response.

I just stare at this with emotionless eyes

“It’s not like you after all.”

Seonwoo slowly let the black night fall downwards.

“The Seolhyang I knew was a more lively, cute, and lovely woman.”

She was different from the woman in her memories.

She smiles brightly at a silly joke

She is so bright that she cackles even when a fallen leaf rolls over.

She was a lovely woman who made me laugh just by talking to her

“Of course, it’s not a bad thing to look as arrogant and sophisticated as you do now… But I think my taste was better before.”

Wooooow

A huge death aura begins to swirl around the body.

“So, I will return you to the original you.”

Sunwoo’s quiet eyes sparkle.

Kwaaaaang

At the same time, he takes a strong step forward.

I leave my body to the explosive reaction force that explodes at the moment and shoot it.

At that moment, Sunwoo’s new form disappears like smoke.

Papad

And soon he arrives right under her nose.

“I don’t accept any disagreement.”

Swing the sword without a moment of hesitation.

To a very precious friend

Buuuuung

And Seolhyang also reacts and immediately raises his sword.

Kwaaaaa aaaaa…

Soon the two swords collided head-on, and a huge shock wave shook the heavens and the earth.

It was the signal for the start of a full-scale fight between the two sword demons.

***************

Kwaang Kwaaang Kwaaang Kwaaang

Countless sword strikes

A huge number of sword strikes were carried out without stopping, without even being able to count them.

Cut

Stab

Gargo

Hundreds, thousands, tens of millions of sword techniques derived from this most basic and simple sword technique persistently dig in and collide, aiming for each other’s fate.

The sky rumbles in unison

A storm arises and swallows everything

The earth splits and causes an earthquake

The enormous impact, almost like a disaster, begins to spread throughout the world.

The fierce battle between monsters that have long since transcended humans continues continuously.

-…Amazing.

Yongran, who was watching the fierce battle between the transcendentals, naturally exclaimed in admiration.

She was so ignorant of the sword that it would be enough to call her an outsider, but she knew.

The deep understanding contained in their swordsmanship

They were not simply clashing iron with iron.

The deep understanding achieved through countless sacrifices is proudly displayed through the sword.

It was mysterious, amazing, and beautiful.

How can you not be impressed?

‘…I thought the sword was just the claws of inferior humans…’

Apparently, that thought was completely wrong.

The depth of enlightenment contained within their swords is in no way inferior to magic.

‘Who will win?’

I couldn’t have predicted it.

It was so fierce that it wouldn’t be surprising who won.

.

.

.

.

.

Kwaaang Kwaaang Kwaaang Kwaaang

‘Strong, far beyond expectations’

Seon-woo, who was exchanging fierce sword strikes, made an expression of admiration.

I had some guess.

How strong is the scent of snow

However, when she actually encountered her, her strength completely exceeded what she had imagined.

He has completed a sword that is worthy of being called a great swordsman.

‘…Is this your talent? ‘Seolhyang’

I didn’t feel anything like the demon king’s unique power.

In other words, it meant that the potential that Seolhyang had from the beginning had only been realized.

‘You also have the qualifications to reach the end of heaven.’

Cheonae

The end of the sky

Seolhyang was qualified to reach that distant place.

Like other wives

‘…Originally, I would have suffered a lot of trouble.’

She, with her, her, her heavenly talent, has become a super power at the level of the Four Heavenly Kings.

She was an opponent whom it was impossible to even guarantee a win at the moment.

For her to adjust her her strength her her her to a level where she could not die was no different from committing suicide on her part of her.

If you don’t do your best, this is what will hurt you

‘But it’s a different story with a sword.’

Cooooo ooooo ooooo

Rumbling

As her swordsmanship she gained more weight, Seolhyang, who was fighting her as an equal her her her, was slowly pushed behind her.

Her Seonwoo’s sword power began to surpass hers.

And

Seokgeuk

Changrang

Something falls to the floor with a clear cutting sound.

It is none other than the sword body

Seolhyang’s sword was cut in half and dropped to the floor.

“!?!”

At that moment, Seolhyang’s golden eyes, which had been unwavering, began to shake ceaselessly.

As if encountering something unbelievable

“As long as you are a strong swordsman, you have no chance of winning.”

She was none other than the Sword God

“So give up, Seolhyang.”

Sunwoo’s confident eyes sparkle.
