Overpowered Sword Chapter 170

Level up with swords (170)

When the guy’s gloomy voice died down, Leon was already looking into the abyss.

The explosive afterglow of “Icarus Wing” flickered several times and then went out like a burnt-out candle, creating a darkness that made it impossible to see even an inch ahead.

No, it’s not just the perspective.

I can’t hear anything.

Nothing is touched.

As if all five senses had been paralyzed, the senses encompassing a radius of more than 100 meters became muted. Even the feeling of energy is crushed, unable to advance even a few meters. Only the aura circulating in his body and the heat that cooled his blood quickly proved that he was alive.

‘What is this space?’

He spoke with his mouth, but the words were not audible, so Leon spoke to El Cid through his thoughts.

Then El Cid answered right away.

[This is Chernobog’s esophagus. It looks like he took over this space through a contract with a foreign media outlet. Even if he was summoned in an intact state, it would be a power that he couldn’t use with his capabilities.]

Unlike El Cid, Leon, who knew very little about the ancient gods, reflexively asked back.

‘Chernobog?’

[It is the name of an evil spirit. There’s no need to dig deep. Originally, the afterlife connected to him would have been Duat, but the outside world distorted the path and connected it to the disguise of an evil god.] The

ancient kingdom, a country ruled by pharaohs, considered even the afterlife as a part of life and the afterlife. This is the place where we promised.

Mummies were also corrupted through blasphemous rituals and turned into undead. This was a measure to prevent the bodies from rotting while waiting for the dead to return from the afterlife one day.

Duat was the name of the afterlife, and unlike when he was alive, it was a land where Osiris, the god of death, was worshiped, not the sun god.

Even if he became a transcendent like Nephren Ka, he would not dare to go against the god’s authority in Duat, so in order to avoid Osiris, he made a contract with a foreign god and became a parasite on the body of an evil god.

‘…Are you saying that he sold his country and was afraid of the judgment, so he attached himself to the body of another god and an evil god?’

[You organized it well.]

‘Isn’t there all that trash?!’

Leon could not help but despise Neprenka’s base personality and behavior with all his heart. Even though he cannot be a role model for everyone as a king, he sells out his subjects and runs away from the god of death in order to enjoy that glory even after death?

It was a race that Leon, who had learned responsibility before anything else as a warrior, could never tolerate.

[By the way, that Nephrenka guy seems to be quite upset too. This place is like a bastard’s sanctuary. For the living, it is a prison where death is inevitable, but for the dead, it is a dark abyss that is even comfortable. There is no weapon more powerful than this to kill living things.]

El Cid chuckled.

[But he made a mistake. That too, very fatally.]

If Leon had not had the means to escape this space, if his capabilities had reached Chernobog’s stomach instead of his esophagus.

This power would definitely have killed Leon.

Nevertheless, his work was one step short.

It is the price of not being able to forget the loss of the subject he abandoned, and eroding his reason with hatred and revenge. The moment Leon was thrown into this abyss, Nephren Ka’s defeat was decided.

Keying.

The light emitted from the holy sword pushes away the darkness.

Leon’s aura could not fight against Chernobog’s darkness, but it was a different story if it was a holy sword created by the goddess herself.

As the radius of several meters becomes brighter, the five senses return.

Before he knew it, Leon warmed up his cold body and focused his energy on the hand holding the holy sword. Not as an auror. Even Roderick during his lifetime did not engage in a power struggle with an evil god like Chernobog.

Only desire.

It doesn’t matter if it’s just for a moment, so let’s dig a small hole in this abyss.

‘you can do it.’

cut out space

Although common sense would not dare to discuss the possibility, Leon succeeded once. It wasn’t completely cut, and only a cross section of it was revealed for a brief moment.

When he fought the one-eyed Drake in the Titan Mountains.

In order to block the enormous mass from the front with a single sword, Leon created a wall by cutting into the empty air.

As he thinks back

to that time and concentrates his mental power, the space around Leon becomes disorganized like a haze.

There was no way there was a haze in an abyss that wasn’t even hot.

It was evidence that his mind was invading the outside world.

Cut down what should not be cut.

That is the ultimate level that a prosecutor should strive for.

Grumbling.

The “Icarus Wing” rising from behind naturally seeped into the holy sword, coloring the faintly shining blade even brighter.

Leon had a hunch.

‘Now!’

The four stigmata engraved on his entire body glowed at the same time, and his body and spirit, which had surpassed their limits, lowered the holy sword in his hand.

It divides heaven and earth in an abyss with no concept of top or bottom.

Let there be light.

Leon’s first Auror Blade tore a point in the abyss like tough leather, creating a crack connecting the world where he was born and raised.

[Go!]

Pushing his back to El Cid’s encouragement, Leon jumped in, holding the holy sword whose brilliance had not yet completely faded.

* * *

How many seconds or minutes was it?

Or maybe it was a few days.

Leon stepped across the border of a dimension that blurred his sense of time. What brought my distant consciousness back was the feeling of finely crumbled sand through my feet.

【―――What.】

A voice clogged in the throat with astonishment.

Coincidentally, the place Leon returned to was only a few meters away from the front of Nephren Car.

At that moment, Leon thought desperately.

What is the situation? What about your colleagues?

How far has his recovery progressed?

[Don’t think in vain, idiot!]

El Cid’s shout cut him out of his distracting thoughts.

[Only a few seconds have passed! Rush right in!]

At the same time, ‘Icarus Wings’ came out.

There is no room to avoid it.

Leon accelerated rapidly and hit Nephren Car with the Holy Sword. I’m ready to fly away with that guy, and I’m going to give it my all without even a single ounce of leisure!

【How did you come back from there! There’s no way a bastard like you could look into my abyss and get away safely!】

Nephrenka shouted, her eyes wide with distrust as she crossed Nekaka and Heka to block the holy sword.

But Leon gritted his teeth and shouted at that voice.

“–shut up!”

【What!?】

“You’ve been barking at me so much, you trash! Not only did he sell out his own people, but he also stuck to the stomach of an evil spirit? “Who are you telling me to abandon this parasite to?”

The moment Nephrenka was at a loss for words after being stabbed in the crosshairs, Leon stopped on the spot and raised the holy sword.

The staff and scepter that were crossed in the shape of a cross bounced off.

Nephren Ka is a pharaoh after all.

A priest who reigns over all people and controls power.

There was no way they were as familiar with hand-to-hand combat as warriors.

‘Even so, we can’t confront each other head-on.’

Leon watched the guy’s movements with cold eyes like ice and dodged the cane that struck him one step ahead. Then, the ground where the stick was swung was seen shaking as if there had been an earthquake.

The shock wave from an attack that didn’t even hit the ground cuts through the ground.

overwhelming power.

This is a being that can trample on him with its output without even a single skill.

【You bastard, you bastard, you bastard, you bastard!!】

Neprenka must have gotten on his nerves because of the dark history he mentioned, so he waved his scepter and staff like a madman.

It was fortunate that the first attack got him far away.

Every time Nephren Ka makes a fuss, the sand dune collapses and the area is devastated, creating a whirlwind. It’s not even a proper move, let alone a martial art. Swinging it around at random, like in a children’s fight, can exert that much power.

【How dare you mention me because you know so much!】

But if it is not martial, there is victory. Leon, who had completely destroyed dozens of attacks, opened his eyes wide.

‘come.’

The most powerful yet porous attack pattern that strikes the scepter and staff at almost the same time.

I have observed it several times, but it is not a trap.

Leon finally gained confidence and raised his sword.

Half of one second.

The moment, which may be shorter than that, must be pierced with the accuracy of throwing a thread through the eye of a needle.

“under.”

I burst out laughing without realizing it.

Throwing thread into the eye of a needle?

It was definitely difficult, but it was just that.

“…It’s nothing special.”

【Die!】

The staff and scepter fall like a landslide.

A tiny gap that inevitably appears due to the angle of the arm.

Grand Chariot

Leon kicked the sandy floor with his stepping foot and accelerated, digging into it faster than the guy’s arms fell.

The speed of this thrust, combined with the propulsion of , is by far the highest among the techniques he can use.

Luminous Seven Style Transformation Machine,

Assault Sword,

Alkaid

From ankle to knee, waist, shoulder, elbow to wrist.

Leon narrowed the distance by half a step and entered Nephrenka’s arms, stabbing the holy sword straight into her.

The guy reacted.

But it couldn’t be stopped.

If he had been even slightly skilled in weaponry, he would have been able to immediately go on the defensive, but he had never been cornered like this before. For Nephren Ka, the defensive stance of dual-wielding weapons was something he had never thought of before.

Phew!

The breaking sound was short and strong.

The blade of the holy sword cuts off the bandages wrapped around the surface of the creature’s body and moves forward, cutting out rotten flesh and internal organs.

The sword advanced in a straight line and pierced the heart.

There is no heartbeat.

Nevertheless, the dark-red flesh writhing with evil energy emitted a hissing and unpleasant odor as it was burned by the brilliance of the holy sword El Cid.

【-Are you done with your struggles?】

But Nephrenka was calm.

Even though its heart was pierced with a holy sword, it only lost one power source.

To a transcendental person, the body is not very important.

If the damage was only this much, it could be recovered by eating all of the people gathered here.

So Leon answered.

“no.”

I knew it would be like this from the beginning.

Even if you destroy the body, which is just a vessel, it is impossible to damage Nephrenka’s true body. Nevertheless, there was a reason why Leon got close to the guy and plunged the holy sword directly into it.

Leon’s “Auror Blade”, which has just awakened, is immature.

It was so imperfect that it could not produce power within the body and even release it outside the body properly.

Therefore, it was necessary to create this situation.

Ugh.

Following Leon’s call, the sun, which was pounding like a heart, moves through the veins. The owner was generous with the terrifying heat that could turn steel into molten metal in an instant.

From the heart to the shoulder, from the shoulder to the arm, and from the arm to the hand.

A power so strong that the light could be seen glimmering even outside the body was swirling within Leon’s body.

It would not have been possible without the medium called the Holy Sword.

From body to body.

From Leon to the Holy Sword and from the Holy Sword to Nephren Car.

“There is still one step left.”

The ‘sun’ that overflowed from Leon flowed into Nephren Ka’s body, coloring the surface of the holy sword brilliantly.

Incomplete and immature technology.

However, there is no attack more fatal to him than this.

A decisive blow that can end the reign of the fallen Pharaoh, who is rejected by the sun with a curse of reversal!

Leon-style Aura-Blade,

Solaris,

the sun sword

that replaced Nephren Ka’s heart, and the sun that rose within it immediately recognized the enemy. The sun would have lost its focus and collapsed as soon as it fell from Leon, but the curse imprinted on it became the foundation on his behalf.

It was right after that.

A sphere of scorching flames appeared in the middle of the desert covered in darkness with the guy at the center.

【―――――――――――――!!!!!】

I couldn’t even scream.

Even the atmosphere is burned, leaving no room for sound to flow through, and the wind is drawn into the vacuum and evaporates.

The light flowing from the fireball burns the undead.

Mummies kneel and scarabs turn over.

Anubis, who was still trapped in the vortex, stared at the fireball as if looking at something dazzling.

It had to be that way.

“…sun?”

Al Razaz, who had forgotten to breathe, muttered.

It was as he said.

In the lull of the battlefield, everyone was mesmerized, prayed, or stood in awe as they looked at the sun that rose in the middle of the night. However, no one sympathized with the sinners struggling inside.

After thousands of years, the curse placed on sinners was completed.

The one who betrayed the sun and the kingdom and reached out into the abyss.

〈Black Pharaoh〉 This was the judgment faced by Nephren Ka.
