Overpowered Sword Chapter 125

Level up with swords (125)

‘Light?! No, it’s a spider web!’

Leon instinctively recognized the reality and dodged away.

It was impossible to cut not just one or two, but dozens or hundreds of spider webs with a sword. It is the same as saying that we will cut down and eliminate the pouring water. Even if you cut it, it just splits into two and falls out.

Immediately after that, a silver-gray flash of light struck the place where he was staying.

Kiiiiing!

The mirror-finished floor pierces through like a piece of paper.

Even if it were full plate mail, it wouldn’t make much of a difference.

When Leon saw that, he swallowed dryly without even realizing it.

The spider web, so densely tangled as to be unfathomable, was the identity of the flash just moments ago.

‘A spider’s web pierced that mirror floor? Even if I hit it with the Aura Sword, it only resulted in a few scratches…’

Even though I didn’t concentrate my power on one point, each and every single strand penetrated the mirror.

It is a level of sharpness that goes beyond common sense.

Did you know that spider silk, which I thought was just sticky, can exert that much power?

El Cid spoke after reading Leon’s inner thoughts.

[You’re very mistaken.]

‘What?’

[Spider silk is inherently a strong material. If the thickness is the same, it is three times stronger and tougher than steel. It’s an ordinary spider’s web, but what if it’s a monster’s web?]

It was not for nothing that among the treasures known as legends, there was armor woven from Arachne’s spider’s web.

Because the processing method was so special and difficult and the materials were so difficult to obtain, it was not easily visible. To collect enough armor to make armor, it would have been enough to defeat dozens of the rare Arachne.

“Brother!”

It was then.

When I turned my eyes to Geoff’s urgent voice, I suddenly saw the group members gathered in one place.

There was no need to ask why.

Something was slowly emerging from the mirror on the ground. Groups 8 and 11 were surrounded by familiar yet unfamiliar people, as if they had seen each other before.

“No, 14 trillion?!”

“To Berger…!”

“You mean it doesn’t just happen once!?”

Among them were some who had been defeated once.

Berger’s arms were still intact, as if he had lost his right arm at some point, and so were the other team members.

Moreover, there were not all four people.

In addition to group 14, two more groups appeared.

Even if you do a simple calculation, it was a difficult number for them to deal with, with only 12 A-rank members and a total strength of 8 people.

‘Well, if you just look at the numbers, that’s true.’

It was true that it had become more dangerous than before.

However, if asked if he was outnumbered, Leon could shake his head resolutely.

They still had a huge advantage.

because.

“Karen!”

Leon nodded without saying anything more as she turned around as if she had been waiting for that call.

That was enough.

Assassin Master.

Karen, who had suppressed her strength until now because she was concentrating on teamwork, grinned as soon as she received his permission. 12 A ranks? Even so, he is just a puppet controlled by a monster.

There was no one who could survive in front of a sincere Karen.

hook.

It was literally a moment.

Karen, who disappeared on the spot without any warning, reappeared behind an unknown clone.

It is 〈Shadow Leap〉.

“What!”

Even Garlond and other allies widened their eyes in shock, but even their reactions were one beat late.

The duplicate tried to turn around belatedly, but soon realized.

“―Slow.”

That his own head had already been cut off.

hook.

Karen, who took off the man’s head, disappeared again, but there was no way to trace him.

The standard and ultimate goal of an assassin is to hit and run unilaterally and not give up the initiative.

Everyone froze at the sight of his ghost-like skills.

“indeed.”

Only Geoff took a confident step forward and raised his sword.

“I guess we’re not at a disadvantage.”

The fact that the side with fewer players was at a disadvantage was only true when the levels were similar.

Karen and Geoff.

Considering the asymmetric power of the two, it is worth a try.

Kieeeeek!

As if the battlefield had reached a stalemate, Kalraider let out a loud scream from somewhere.

Then the duplicates immediately rushed forward.

Some held swords, others held spears.

Some were wizards and some were spiritists.

A group of 12 to 11 people in the guise of expedition members attacked without hesitation.

Geoff, who stood at the front of the group, greeted them first.

“Activate evlogía.”

As unknown letters and lines appeared on the outside of the silver full-plate mail, Geoff’s perceived time slowed down by three times.

It was the power of a sacred law device.

At the same time, he lowered his body while grabbing the hilt of the sword at his waist.

A flash.

Wow!

The sword stretched out like a flash and split the uvula of the two men.

Even at the top level of Expert level, three times the acceleration was added, so if even an A rank person was caught off guard, they would be instantly killed.

8 to 9 with this.

As the number of people was almost the same, the clones were quickly cornered. If you reveal even the slightest opportunity, you will be assassinated by Karen who appears from behind, and if you only watch your back, you will not be able to respond to Geoff’s quick sword.

‘It may not be possible to maintain that speed, but it can still be said to be the best in its class in short-term decisive battles.’

Leon himself did not have the confidence that he could completely block or avoid that swift sword.

The limit would be to be able to hold out for a short while while barely avoiding vital points.

At least the one who had imitated Berger held on for a while, but he soon fell backwards with a big hole in his neck and heart.

It didn’t take long for the 12 clones to be wiped out.

It was a landslide victory for Groups 8 and 11.

but.

“…I thought it was impossible.”

Geoff let out a long sigh and raised his sword.

The mirror floor was shaking again.

This is what I guessed after looking at Article 14. If you defeat it once and it reappears, you can defeat it twice to reappear. If things continue like this, there is no chance of winning in a war of attrition.

And it’s not just that.

Twelve duplicates seemed to emerge from the mirror floor, and as if that was not enough, they began to split apart.

“shit! “How many of them are popping out?!”

“If I had known it would be like this, I would have spent all my money.”

“Hmm, maybe this is my grave…”

The group members muttered with despondent expressions as they saw the number of enemies increase to 24, no, 48 in an instant.

Even with Karen and Geoff’s skills, this number was unreasonable. Even if you somehow manage to defeat them all, they will show up again, so they have no choice but to lose in the end.

Only Leon spoke with a puzzled expression.

“What are you suddenly saying?”

“hmm?”

“As for how many came out, I think there were 12, just like before.”

…!?

People’s expressions changed completely at those words.

Leon’s eyes were so genuinely puzzled that what he said didn’t feel like a lie.

Then, there is only one truth that can explain this phenomenon.

“hallucination?! “It’s an illusion that can deceive even our senses!”

The shocked spirit master put his hands together and summoned a strong rushing wind.

People’s clothes, hair, and eyebrows were swaying slightly in the gust of wind.

The clones were no different.

Their clothes, hair, and eyebrows moved.

“Look carefully!”

However, it was impossible to fool an A-rank level keen eye.

“There are those who sway in a different direction than the wind direction! “They are all illusions without substance!”

The eyes of those who received the spiritist’s confirmation brightened.

Now that we have seen a way out of a situation where there is no chance of victory, there is no reason to helplessly accept death.

The masters standing back to back exchanged words quickly.

“Is there a way to tell them apart while fighting?”

“If it’s a hallucination using light, then using heat…”

“It’s difficult. “It’s bound to be a harder fight than the first time.”

“We need to strengthen our defensive posture with a focus on counterattacks rather than attacks.”

“Let’s get together somewhere!”

And while Geoff commanded them all, he gave a separate role to Leon.

The owner of ‘eyes’ that cannot be fooled by hallucinations.

He was the decisive blow that would end this sluggish fight.

“Brother Leon, please replace the spider and kill it! Even if you fight against 12 of them, you can’t just hold on forever!”

“I understand, Sir Geoff!”

Leon answered loudly, rolling his eyes back and forth.

Kaleider the Kaleidoscope Spider.

Killing the guy who was hiding in the mirror and continuously creating duplicates was a prerequisite for victory. Leon, who was able to see reality through hallucinations with the ‘Stigmata of the Watcher’, was the right person.

‘Where are you?’

It increases concentration and increases brain processing speed.

Although the amount of information increased several times gave me a headache, I didn’t even raise an eyebrow at that level.

Just like that, 10 seconds, like 10 minutes, passed by.

I look into dozens and hundreds of mirrors without exception.

Even though the whites of his eyelids were bloodshot from not blinking once, he did not lose concentration.

As a result.

“—Is it there!”

Leon jumped when he saw something moving in the mirror.

Kalraider.

As if to prove that it was a creature from another dimension, a spider with eight pairs of compound eyes and twelve legs looked back at him.

If this guy had an expression, it would be a surprised face.

‘Cut!’

Leon, who took advantage of the momentary stiffness and covered the holy sword with , lowered his sword.

It is a blow that converts compressed aura into an ultra-high temperature blade.

It has the power to cut through anything, including mirrors, in one go!

As expected, the mirror where Kalraider was hiding split into two pieces and his image disappeared everywhere.

“Did you get rid of it?”

El Cid answered.

[You must have done it? You stupid disciple of mine.]

At the same time, Kalraider jumped out from behind Leon’s back.

KEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!

Spider webs shot out from behind the guy who was letting out a terrible scream again, and this time, instead of surrounding Leon, they created several layers of wall as if surrounding him.

It was not at a level that could be cleared with one or two swings.

Afterwards, the spider web that became the wall became intricately tangled and transformed into a mirror that clearly reflected the whole direction.

“Ugh.”

My vision is spinning with dizziness.

This was because the field of view widened by was filled with mirrors everywhere, and more than ten times more information poured in.

If you keep this condition, your brain will burn out or you will go blind.

‘All you have to do is narrow your viewing angle to minimize eye fatigue and defeat him before he reaches his limit…!’

Leon overcame the dizziness and raised his sword.

Before we knew it, Kalraider had escaped into the mirror again and was running wild in the mirror that had expanded to all directions.

Is it because there are no physical limitations?

Its movements were so fast that it was difficult to follow it with two eyes.

‘That speed is a problem, but even if I attack the mirror he’s hiding in, my sword strike won’t reach him. What do we do? How can I cut down Kalraider in that mirror?’

〈Eclipse〉 exactly cut him into two.

Nevertheless, Kalraider moved to the mirror without a single wound and attacked Leon’s rear.

Just attacking the mirror doesn’t work.

I tried to wait for the moment to come out of the mirror, but there was no way a guy surrounded by mirrors would take that risk. All he had to do was send out duplicates or shoot webs until he withered away.

“…I knew that, you damn bastard.”

Sure enough, it seemed that he recognized Leon as a dangerous element. So much so that he stole one of the clones that were dealing with Teams 8 and 11 and placed it in front of him.

Berger.

A mercenary with a lot of fighting skills, with skin covered in countless wounds and an impressive spear in his hand, glared at him.

‘shit.’

The level of presence is different from when fighting with one arm.

A feeling that was almost certain that if he took one step, he would be stabbed twice, grabbed the soles of Leon’s feet.

sword and spear.

Thirteen intervals away from being fatal.

Berger’s duplicate moved first.

Whoops!

Leon was thrown back two steps by an invisible sting.

Even though I blocked it properly, both my hands felt numb.

‘Is this the stab of a top-class spearman…!’

Qualification (刺擊/Thrust).

It is the fundamental and fundamental skill of spearmanship and forms the axis of all fighting methods. The principle is similar to that of a bow. Using your right arm as a support, aim at the pole and accelerate with all your might while pushing with your left arm.

Rotate from ankle to knee, knee to waist, waist to shoulder, stabbing, stabbing, stabbing again and again.

Blah blah blah!

He desperately swings his sword and counters the tip of the spear.

The hand bursts, blood flows, and several spears pass by, cutting into the skin that was not covered by armor.

Bloody tears flowed from Leon’s eyes.

If you blink once, you lose two moves. I squeeze my dry eyeballs and glare at Berger’s clone beyond.

The conclusion was clear from the beginning.

‘I can’t do this. ‘You can’t win in a slugfest.’

There was a time when I tried to cut the spear with 〈Eclipse〉, but the sword’s face bounced off when I turned the spear, as if I had seen through that intention.

A mercenary who is an expert in interpersonal combat.

I thought I knew why they were called human hunters.

‘You have to bet on winning.’

Leon, who calmed down after taking a few deep breaths, thought.

‘If I continue to fight in hand-to-hand combat, I will only suffer losses, and even if I somehow win, I just have to recreate the duplicate. I need a means to blow up that guy and Kalraider in the mirror at the same time…’

El Cid said after looking at his plan.

[I’ll give you one piece of advice, idiot disciple.]

‘What is it?’

[A mirror is a place that overlaps in this world, similar to a shadow, but is separated from the phase of space. Even the dragon’s breath cannot interfere with simple physical attacks.]

To put it in an easy-to-understand analogy, it is like a fish under the water.

[Even if you hit the surface of the water with all your might, you will only ruin the image and not catch the fish. You can only catch a fish by sticking the harpoon into the water.]

‘Put the harpoon into the water…?’

[okay. It means cutting what cannot be cut and interfering with areas that cannot be interfered with. You already taught me how to do that and have tried it before.]

‘Ah!’

Only then did Leon remember the time he fought Drake.

The feeling of blocking a tail strike by cutting off the surface of space.

I felt like my head, which had been stuffy due to dizziness, cleared up and my vision became clearer.

Pot.

Take a large leap backwards to increase the distance.

Widening the gap while dealing with a spear was foolish, but it was not impossible if there was a separate intention.

Berger’s duplicate did not chase him.

Because I judged that it would not be a threat to Kalraider, I let the opportunity that I should have taken as a warrior go unnoticed.

‘I guess it’s the limit of being a puppet.’

There are areas that cannot be reached by merely imitating martial arts.

Leon was thinking of showing it to that monster.

Keying.

Gather your strength.

Considering that I didn’t have the ‘Guardian’s Stigmata’, I gathered all the Aurors I had saved so far into swordplay.

A speck of brilliance forms like dew from the tip of the holy sword.

Breaking through one point.

A stab that can penetrate not only Berger’s duplicate but also the interior of the Kalraider mirror hidden behind it. Leon’s forehead shined brightly, building up the mental strength necessary for the job.

The Grand Chariot

must not be cut.

His deployment of power is more than enough to collapse this tunnel.

Fortunately, Leon was learning how to ‘poke’.

‘Poke through, beyond that damn mirror…!’

Demonstrates telekinesis.

My mental strength drains like water from a dam with a hole in it, my limbs start to cramp, and my vision, which was clear until just before, becomes blurry.

50% 30% 20%.

In the end, with only 10% of his mental power left, his telekinesis sublimated the power gathered at the tip of the holy sword to a higher realm. It was a strike of light that could reach the other side of the mirror.

As Leon took half a step forward and aimed his sword, a golden ray of light shot out from the sword.

Yogwangchichichi (搖光七式) Deepening technique (深化技)

Gwanwol (貫月

) Alkaid

“That’s the extreme! “Ugh!”

The experience engraved on Berger’s body screamed for him to avoid, but the duplicate with Kalraider behind him could not move.

I shouted to avoid it, but it had no meaning.

Kekekekeek! Keke!

Kalraider just used people to their advantage and did not try to understand them at all. What puppeteer in this world would want to communicate with puppets?

The guy just sneered behind the clone, saying he didn’t know why he was afraid of an attack that couldn’t even reach him.

Not knowing that it was truly the height of foolishness.

Whoops!

The light of broke the intercepting Berger’s spear and went further, penetrating the heart’s rim.

Towards the stupid spider monster giggling inside the mirror.

And I pierced him.

Sigh!

The flash of light that jumped over the impossible mirror and reached the mirror dimension cut out Kalraider’s body.
