Overpowered Sword

Overpowered Sword Chapter 129

Level up with swords (129)

It was the very next day after finishing the banquet in the main auditorium.

The expedition was immediately disbanded.

Unlike C-Rank or B-Rank, A-Rank was an irreplaceable workforce and occupied quite important roles in a region. Just leaving the place for a long time would leave a huge gap, so I had no choice but to return quickly, promising to meet again in the future.

On the contrary, the two people, Leon and Karen, were free.

This was partly because he had not settled down somewhere, and also because Irexana personally vouched for the contribution.

No one was so reckless as to whip the number one contributor to the Great Mine Expedition.

“Haaam—.”

Karen, who woke up early in the morning, yawned long.

“The Holy Church is all good, but the problem is that they are too diligent. “I usually wake up at 4:30 in the morning, so that doesn’t mean I go to bed early.”

It was quite a painful time for Karen, who had become nocturnal by nature after living as an assassin.

Leon also joined in the complaint by yawning lightly.

“Priests basically think that self-denial and asceticism are a type of training. “Reducing what you eat or reducing the amount of time you sleep may be part of it.”

“Will that really help me become stronger?”

“It’s not just training for combat purposes. “It might encourage things like spiritual strength or faith.”

Aurors purify the mana accumulated in their bodies and use magical power to rotate the circle created within their bodies to gain control.

So what about sexual power?

How should we train the power given directly by the goddess?

“…’Continuing good deeds and becoming a better person.’ “When I looked at the phrase alone, it seemed like an old-fashioned moral book.”

As Karen said, ordinary people cannot sympathize with that meaning.

So the priests were even more special.

Holy power could not be awakened simply by wanting power or by joining hands with a specific purpose or ambition.

Good will.

Only those who can maintain a uniform way of life, doing good for the sake of good, become priests. People who are grateful for the life they have been given, who relieve the pain of others, and who can freely return a gold coin found on the side of the road to its owner.

“That’s really cool.”

For some reason, Karen spoke with a slightly bitter expression.

Since she herself could not live like that, those who lived in the embrace of light looked even more dazzling.

Leon couldn’t think of anything to say, so he kept his mouth shut.

It was then.

“You are here, Brother Leon. And Sister Karen too.”

Geoff, the Holy Iron Knight who walked from the other side of the hallway, recognized the two and approached them with a happy face.

The two people also saw him and greeted him face to face.

Leon asked after seeing Geoff wearing a full plate.

“Are you coming back already?”

“yes.”

Geoff grinned.

It was a refreshing smile that did not show even the slightest trace of fatigue, let alone fatigue. Because he was suddenly called up as an expeditionary force, he must have flown in from afar on an airship and had to return to duty after three days.

Even though he could have uttered at least one unpleasant word, he smiled without any hesitation.

“I’ve been away for a few days, so I’ll have to deal with what happened in the meantime. It’s not that I don’t trust my successors, but I get a little anxious if I’m not watching them.”

“Sir Geoff is a truly excellent gentleman.”

“Haha, brother, I’m more motivated now that you’re praising me.”

Geoff appears to be in his mid-30s, but his actual age is already over 50. It was only his full divine power, consistent training, and polite behavior that made him look younger.

After chatting with the two for a moment, he looked at his watch and stood up from his seat.

“I guess I should go soon. “I reserved a seat on the aircraft carrier.”

Then, he looked at the two in turn with happy eyes and quietly whispered a few words to Leon.

“Brother, the next time I see you, I hope I can call you leader.”

“yes!?”

“Then I’ll leave.”

Geoff, who looked calm and weak, turned his back.

Only Leon and Karen with blank faces remained there, looking at the man’s back as he walked away from the door.

The position of leader of the Seongcheolsak Knights was always vacant.

A vacant seat for a true hero who will return someday.

Geoff mentioned that.

“…I guess I got caught?”

“I know. “It’s not in 5th place for nothing.”

The two people scratched their heads with awkward expressions.

Fortunately, that atmosphere didn’t last long.

“Brother and sister. “The Cardinal is calling you.”

An apprentice priest came and guided them.

When I followed him to the door of the supply room, the apprentice priest gave a short nod and walked away somewhere.

It seemed like they were just told to bring him here.

There was no need to knock.

-Please come in.

There was no way Irexana would have missed the sight just because she was barely outside the door.

Leon pushed open the door to the supply room and entered the room.

The pungent smell of medicine and a mountain of paper pass by my nose. Irexana was sitting across the table in her usual attire, as if the bandages had been removed in just one day.

“Welcome, you two.”

Irexana put down the seal and raised herself up.

“I’m sorry for having to meet you so early in the morning. “I wanted to avoid people’s eyes as much as possible.”

“no. “The early morning air was nice.”

“Is that so? “This is definitely the time when the air is the clearest in Jugend.”

After the blacksmith’s fire came on in earnest, smoke rose from the chimney and the sky turned gray.

Irexana, who matched Leon’s empty words, stretched out her hand.

Subspace bracelet.

The light emanating from there formed some kind of shape.

“ah…!”

The gaze of the two people was naturally drawn.

What appeared on the table were three types of items.

Irexana picked one up first, walked over to Leon, placed it on his left forearm, and measured its size.

“Hmm, it’s okay.”

Next, Irexana, who had put on the weapon by locking the joints around her elbows and wrists, stepped back.

Only then did Leon see what was on his arm.

Arm-Guarder.

The silver-white surface and the golden patterns drawn on it were truly beautiful. It was such a wonderful item that it would have been a waste to use it in battle, more like a work of art than a piece of armor.

“This…?”

“This is Jugendsteel No.100 ‘Shield of One Ring’.”

Irexana calmly opened her mouth.

“Based on the Mithril plate, we added Orichalcon’s circuit to give it the ability to respond to auras of specific properties. Would you like to try it?”

“no way.”

“Yes, it is as you think.”

A weapon that completely restricts its users and can only be activated by solar attribute aura users. The ‘Shield of One Wheel’ glowed yo-yo from Leon’s left arm.

‘The name of the arm guard is a shield, so does it spread out wide?’

Leon’s aura flowed as he examined the exterior of the protector. As explained in the description that it reacts to solar properties, the ‘Shield of the One Wheel’ took on a soft glow as soon as it accepted his power.

The golden circuit glows and flows over the plate like a blood vessel, expanding the power of the sun several times and wrapping around the guard.

and.

“and…!”

The moment the swelling power reached its critical point, a round auror shield was formed over the ‘Shield of One Wheel’.

A golden hemisphere.

Leon, wrapped in that protective shield, let out an exclamation.

“They say it’s a shield of one wheel, and it lives up to its name!”

Because it manifested as a solar attribute, it possessed the two qualities of ‘light’ and ‘heat’, so it seemed possible to burn or dazzle anything that came in contact with the shield if more power was injected into it.

The defense is also unusually strong.

It is denser than when Leon himself concentrated the aura, so he will be able to handle even high-level magic a few times.

‘It was already difficult because I didn’t have a means to defend against ranged attacks, but Ilryun’s shield could fill that gap.’

It was the same when dealing with a Lord-class vampire in Rubena and when dealing with a Drake in the Titan Mountains.

No matter how much of a sword master he is, he can’t stop the shower.

The blade is ultimately just a single line, but ranged attacks are plane or three-dimensional. It may be okay when attacking, but when defending, it lags far behind in terms of efficiency.

Auror’s shield was mentioned as one of the measures, but it was not very practical as it was difficult and consumed too much.

‘But this shield is different. Not only does it reduce the consumption of aurors, but the completeness of the shield is ridiculously high.’

It wasn’t given a place in Youth Steel for nothing.

With a satisfied expression, Leon removed the golden shield and patted the perfectly comfortable protector several times.

Irexana said, laughing when she saw that reaction.

“Do you like it?”

“yes! “It goes without saying!”

“That’s a good thing. “I chose them with great care.”

Karen was next.

Seeing her rubbing her hands in anticipation, Irexana picked up the items left on the table.

The second weapon was a dagger.

A dagger with an impressive blade curved as sharp as a crescent moon.

“This is Jugendstil No.139 ‘Crescent Moon’.”

“Oh, of course!”

Karen seemed to think the same way as he, as she handed over the dagger and looked at the blade at an angle.

It’s not as long as a scimitar, but you bend the blade like this?

It was an appearance that was bound to have poor practicality.

However, since it was recognized as Youth Steel, there was no doubt that it had a hidden function. Karen, who thought the same way, inhaled her aura with all her might, and something surprising happened.

“ah!”

This was because the round blade of the dagger suddenly stretched and stuck into the ceiling of the supply room.

The instantaneous increase in length was close to 2 meters.

Karen’s eyes widened when she saw that.

‘A blade with elasticity…! ‘How do they make that?’

Regardless of functionality, I am curious about the manufacturing method.

Irexana grinned as if enjoying Leon and Karen’s gaze and handed over the remaining weapon.

It was a sword hilt.

I’m not kidding, a sword with no blade and only a handle was placed in Karen’s hand.

“This is Jugendstil No.212 ‘Old Moon’.”

This time, Irexana probably thought that some explanation was needed, but didn’t finish her sentence at that point and continued.

“It’s an type artifact that condenses the user’s aura and uses it as its own blade. It’s an original weapon, but if that were all it was, it wouldn’t have been Jugendstil.”

“Then?”

“Try making a blade.”

Karen focused her mind on those words and placed the auror into the hilt of the sword, creating a blade.

At the same time, the two realized the secret of the sword.

“Is it transparent?!”

I can’t see it.

I could only infer it from my keen sense of humor, but I couldn’t see the extending from Karen’s hilt at all.

How long is it and how dense is it?

There was little information that could be obtained through the five senses.

It was an assassination weapon of an absurd level.

“It seems that if you get used to using ‘Old Moon,’ you may be able to change the shape of the blade, but I’m not sure.”

This is unbelievable performance. You can make the transparent and even change its form?

When Karen learned of this possibility, she came up with 27 new assassination techniques using the ‘Old Moon’ in just a few seconds. Compared to previously learned techniques, they were more secretive, more lethal, and incomparably more terrifying.

“…Thank you, Cardinal.”

Holding the two weapons tightly in her arms, Karen lowered her head with a playful expression.

These are not items worth receiving for the success of the expedition.

These were given to her because she was a colleague of the warrior Leon and recognized her as a colleague. When I realized that fact, my eyes suddenly became slightly teary.

Instead of saying anything more, Irexana just smiled kindly and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became warmer.

Sigh.

It was that moment.

At a moment when no one was aware, the door to the supply room opened.

Huh!

Almost at the same time, the three people looked towards the door in horror.

It was a natural reaction.

I wasn’t surprised because someone came to visit.

The problem was that Leon, Karen, and even Irexana didn’t know until someone came and opened the door.

In order to fool Auror Master Irexana’s cognitive abilities, even if her senses were a bit impaired due to injury, the opponent had to be of the same level of skill.

‘Who is it? ‘Who on earth is in this situation?’

There is no answer.

Irexana and Leon Karen looked at the door with identical expressions.

I tense my whole body without any idea who will appear beyond the slowly opening door. A bright, even brilliant light appears in Irexana’s clenched fist. Although it is not yet in perfect condition, the warrior had to be saved at least.

I can deliver at least one hit with all my might, so in that gap-.

“…her?”

Seeing the unexpected face, Irexana became as hard as stone, and the eyes of the two people also widened.

It had to be that way.

Silver hair and golden eyes.

Because one of the symbols of the Holy Church suddenly appeared.

‘A woman with silver hair and golden eyes wearing a monastic habit?!’

Leon had a hunch.

No, I knew it as soon as I saw it. The depth of nothingness felt with a single step, a polite attitude, and even the presence of divine power overflowing from the body.

A warrior and a saint.

A pair of golden eyes looked at each other.

Leon opened his mouth without knowing what to say.

“Saint?”

As if he had been waiting for those words for a long time, Ellahan shouted with moisture in his bright eyes.

With both hands clasped in front of the chest and a blush on both cheeks.

I smiled like a sunflower blooming.

“yes! “Hero!”

That was the first meeting between the warrior Leon and Saint Ellahan.
