Overpowered Sword Chapter 15

Level up with swords (15)

‘It ends here!’

Leon was the first to go into attack mode.

Using the momentum from which he was desperately charging, he spun his entire body like a top and slashed down.

Although it is a sword technique included in the basics, it is the strongest strike!

In some schools, it is a straight line cutting called . It is a cut that even beginners in swordsmanship can perform instinctively, and its power and speed can be said to be truly the strongest.

Moreover, Leon, who is not even a beginner, has the power to charge, so a poor defense will shatter the entire sword.

however.

“Heh.”

Lian laughed.

With his pale face, his cold sweat-soaked body, and his pale lips moving, he smiled.

With a confidence that can never be called bluff.

‘I won, bro.’

For some reason, Lian had a hunch.

Even if he uses the , it will be difficult to defeat Leon, and he will hold out until the end and counterattack at least once. In order to completely defeat him, you have no choice but to either attack him with more attacks than you have now or overcome even his counterattacks.

It is already too late to choose the former.

His arcane sword technique had as strong a recoil as its power, and he could not use it without an auror and with a body that was already exhausted.

From then on, Ryan prepared for this moment.

…clud….

has already exceeded its activity limit.

As the heavily squeezed blood vessels burst and several strands of muscles break, a terrifying pain overtakes me. The calories consumed in a short period of time were converted into heat and water vapor, which spewed out from the pores.

It is a literal limit.

From this point on, it was a section where safety could not be guaranteed if one entered the impossible territory carelessly.

‘but…!’

Ryan crossed that limit without any hesitation.

‘If I’m really a hero, this much…!’

You must be able to jump over it as many times as you want.

The weight of the mission he carried on his back and the talent flowing in his blood exploded against the first enemy he faced.

So far, there hasn’t even been a need to exceed that limit.

I have never wanted to beat someone this much. The emotions and will that I had for the first time pulled my body together.

Wedge!

Lean back with the that goes beyond the limits. Leon’s blade missed by a narrow margin and cut through the air, immediately revealing a defenseless gap.

If you fail a fatal blow, you kill yourself.

Lian’s sword, aimed at that moment, stretched out like a flash of light.

That was the final blow.

Clang!

The sword fragment jumped out with a sharp sound.

The sword, whose durability had greatly decreased after clashing with it more than a hundred times, eventually broke in the final blow.

There was only one broken sword.

The remaining one was aimed at the front of the opponent’s neck. It was a moment when the winner and loser were clearly divided.

‘…why?’

Lian looked at the tip of the sword with blank eyes.

“I won, Lian.”

On the contrary, Leon’s eyes were clear.

It was a simple story.

Just as Lian trusted him, Leon also trusted Lian. I expected that he would be able to threaten him until the end, as if he had made one last move.

And then he took out his trump card.

[It was worth practicing until my palms exploded. Isn’t that right?]

‘That’s right.’

Leon looked down at his palm and agreed.

It was a skill I had been practicing constantly for several days.

An anomalous sword that disrupts the timing of the upper and lower body, imitating the principle in El Monte’s . Leon used it to perfectly block Lian’s counterattack.

I didn’t know that Rian’s sword would break cleanly.

‘Now that I think about it, it’s the same ending as last time.’

The winner and loser simply changed and the game was decided by breaking the sword and suppressing the front of the neck.

Leon couldn’t help but feel a strange feeling.

“This is Leon’s victory.”

Gilbert, who came into the circle late, declared.

It was the end of a battle that had lasted for several years. After losing countless times, the person who won in the end was Leon.

‘Did I lose?…’

Lian lowered her head with an unknown expression.

It was my first time.

Losing to someone of a similar age, wanting to win, and having that will broken.

The excuse for not using Aurors was meaningless. As long as it was a win that I was convinced of, the result was everything. His voice sank as he felt the bitterness of defeat for the first time.

“…What do you want.”

“well.”

Leon smiled wryly at the uncharacteristic way he spoke.

There was no way I didn’t know why.

Losing was painful even for Beomjae, but Rian was a genius. However, he lost to Leon, who had never lost before. They just didn’t use Aurors, and even though they fought sincerely, they didn’t win.

Everyone is bound to get frustrated at least once.

Because Ryan was so outstanding, it was too late. The frustration he must have felt was greater than he could have imagined.

[Well, if you surpass that, you will become even stronger.]

‘You seem like a dirty genius.’

El Cid was right.

Just as the ground hardens after rain, for a genius, frustration was a growing pain that he had to experience once.

Leon was at a standstill even after a hundred days of frustration, but not Rian. If they could use today’s defeat as a lesson, it was clear that they would show a completely different side in a few days.

So Leon spoke without further ado.

“I’ll put it off until later.”

“…yes?”

“I can’t think of anything in particular right now, so if I think of something I need, I’ll go ahead and tell it then. But it doesn’t matter, right?”

When Lian hesitated at the unexpected words, Leon turned around, saying he thought that was what happened.

He walked out quickly, leaving Gilbert and Lian behind.

However, as soon as he left the annex, his steps slowed down and he stumbled and leaned against the wall.

‘Should I have just collapsed?’

It was his own pride that he did not want to appear weak in front of Rian until the very end.

Unlike Lian, who didn’t have any problems other than exhaustion, Leon’s body was all covered up, and even though he didn’t have deep wounds, he had so many residual wounds that he was bleeding significantly. It was obvious that if I relaxed and collapsed, I would faint on the spot.

It was then.

“[Healing light, please give rest to the wounded.]”

Light flowed from somewhere and enveloped Leon.

As the shallow wound heals, the bleeding stops. A slight sense of vitality circulated throughout my body, and my blurry vision became slightly clearer.

4th level recovery magic.

Leon, realizing his identity, turned around.

“It was you, Chloe.”

“huh.”

Observer Chloe smiled slightly and continued the magic.

Although it is less efficient than sacred methods specialized for recovery or blessing, it is more than enough to repair minor injuries of this magnitude.

She said, almost closing the wound in just one minute.

“Just looking at it, I don’t even know who won. “Usually he only hurts his hands a little, but today he’s a real mess.”

“Hey, after going this far, I barely won.”

“How are you feeling if you lose? “Neither you nor Lian understand.”

Chloe grumbled and placed her hand on the last wound. This is the area where Rian’s right shoulder was grazed by a stab. As the cracked skin stuck back together, it tingled like static electricity.

At that time, a voice reached Leon’s ears.

“But you’ve gotten a lot stronger, Leon.”

“….”

When Leon remained silent, unable to think of anything to say back, Chloe spoke without waiting for an answer.

It was a remark that seemed like a glimpse into his inner thoughts.

“Are you thinking about leaving the academy?”

Surprised by those words, Leon turned to Chloe.

“how did you know?”

“I don’t know you? “Anyway, you’re an idiot.”

“I thought you would stop me.”

“Even though I had no intention of listening, he speaks well.”

It wasn’t wrong. When Leon looked away with a shy expression, Chloe smiled and opened her mouth.

“It’s always been like that since ancient times. Leon kept trying things that other people said he couldn’t do and ultimately succeeded, right? “It took a little longer this time, though.”

“…I thought it was fast compared to the level of difficulty.”

“Are you late? “That’s a lot.”

Chloe made an inexplicable sound and slapped him on the back.

Leon stumbled for a moment from the shock, but soon began to laugh for reasons he didn’t even know.

Chloe also giggled, as if it were contagious.

I felt like I was back in my childhood.

“Did you?”

“huh.”

“It’s really late.”

“huh.”

The two people exchanged words like that.

They shared stories that only they could understand, as if they were handing each other letters that had collected dust for three years.

Leon spoke without hesitation anymore.

“I’m done now, so go and hit Lian.”

“I thought Leon was going to hit me?”

“I thought it would be sad if I got beaten up in front of my girlfriend.”

“What? Ahahaha!”

Chloe burst into laughter at those words and then wiped away her tears. Who would have thought that it was Leon and no one else who would make a joke like this?

Or did I feel a little lighter after winning against Rian?

Either way, it was something she was happy about.

“Okay then, let’s go.”

Before I knew it, the rain had stopped.

The night sky between the dark clouds is full of stars. Leon said his goodbyes while looking at the scenery.

Chloe looked at his back and asked.

“What are you planning to do after leaving Leon Academy?”

“It’s still a secret.”

Leon waved his hand behind his back without even turning around.

I couldn’t tell her either.

Even if I say it now, it will only be a laughing stock.

Isn’t there only one thing a warrior can do? Just like Holy King Roderick and all previous warriors.

‘I have to save the world.’

As if agreeing with those words, the pattern on the back of his left hand flashed.

It started now.

* * *

Chloe remained in that spot until she could no longer see Leon’s back as he disappeared into the distance.

The fingertips I had touched a moment ago were hot.

blood.

The blood flowing from Leon’s wound was staining his fingernails. Even if I wiped it off with a handkerchief, the heat remained. He was a man with an unquenchable fire who achieved victory through years of hard work.

I have been driven by that passion since childhood.

Continuing my boring studies and joining the academy were all the result of following Leon’s back.

‘Actually, I knew everything.’

Since when did it start?

The reason I could feel the tickling heat in his eyes was that it became difficult to look him in the eyes.

I didn’t know much at first.

It was natural for us to always be by our side, so I was just afraid of the sudden change. Perhaps the favor was overwhelming. Leon was always like fire. Once I decided on something, I pushed through it to the end and never gave up.

You may have felt the temperature difference in your heart. I thought I couldn’t like him as much as he liked me.

So I chose someone else.

I met someone I could date more comfortably.

‘Leon I won’t regret it.’

Chloe held her hands together and looked at the night sky.

The darkness filled with starlight, a universe that no one could dare to fathom, caught my eye.

Wizards do not worship gods.

However, they did not deny its existence and sometimes offered prayers that could not be reached by magic.

‘Goddess, please.’

What if there comes a day when Leon becomes a better man than anyone else and regrets his choice that day?

Let someone who is better than anyone else stay by his side.

May you enjoy happiness that is much greater than the pain you gave.

Chloe sincerely wished him well for his future.
