Overpowered Sword Chapter 75

Level up with swords (75)

“…What are you thinking, you guy?”

Andrei’s blood-red eyes looked down at Leon.

It was like looking at an unknown creature.

The superiority and inferiority of power was clear.

Transformation into a vampire using the black crystal was a complete success, and the life force accumulated over several decades is difficult to fathom. Even the Vampire Lords, the kings of vampires who disappeared 300 years ago, could rival this strength.

Even if there were two Holy Iron Knights armed with silver weapons and holy magic, if the difference in power widened to this extent, it would be meaningless. Ultimately, a compatibility relationship can only be established if the specifications are somewhat similar.

But why are two high-ranking vampires and an A-rank adventurer deserting in a situation where there is already a critical shortage of power?

“Right. Are you going to let your woman run away?”

Andrei, who guessed Leon’s intentions, laughed bitterly.

“It’s pointless. This Rubena is already a land like my stomach. No matter what you do, you cannot escape the city limits or avoid my attention. That judgment of yours merely turned the slightest chance of victory into nothingness.”

“….”

“Haha, are you in despair? Because of his own foolishness in pointing the sword at me and even making a mistake in his final judgment? But I have no intention of giving you a second chance. Even after death, I will make you struggle with that regret…”

Unable to bear it anymore, Leon finally opened his mouth.

“Oh, it’s really noisy.”

Andrei’s words trailed off.

If his voice had trembled even a little, he would have regarded the other person’s words as bravado and laughed louder.

However, Leon’s voice was calm.

No, it wasn’t just the voice.

Neither his facial expression nor his posture waver at all. It was an attitude that did not appear to belong to someone who was cornered.

Leon spoke with his holy sword raised high.

“Is there a rule that says you have to be good at chatting to get into black magic? “I just listened to it to pass the time, but it never ended.”

“what…?”

Even Andrei, who was arrogant, couldn’t help but be embarrassed by the attitude that seemed to have reversed each other’s positions.

What on earth does this scum believe and climb so arrogantly?

In a situation where no matter how much I thought about it, I couldn’t come up with an answer, I was momentarily at a loss for words. However, the embarrassment did not last long. Soon, the boiling anger covered his eyes, and bright red light began to gather in Andrei’s hands.

“Did you take your time? You? Foolish! “You test my tolerance until the end, you lowly thing!”

In just a few seconds, the gathered power turns into blood-red beads.

It’s not even proper magic, it’s just a magic bullet that compresses the overflowing life force for attack purposes.

Nevertheless, its power was terrifying.

Damian was astonished as he felt pressure from tens of meters away.

“Absurd power…! “If that thing were to fall like that…”

It would certainly produce a greater destructive power than ten cartloads of gunpowder exploding.

Leon, who is at close range, will not be able to leave even a single piece of bone behind.

“…good.”

However, until that moment, Leon calmly used his Aura Sense and confirmed Karen’s presence, which he could no longer sense.

Tepes and Roman would also have moved away with her.

That was exactly why he took his time.

[You idiot! El Cid’s ridicule echoed

.

Leon sympathized with the ridicule and aimed his sword at it. Toward Andrei, the vampire rising proudly in the night sky.

“Andrey Rubena!”

I called out his name to attract his attention and said,

“Light!”

The brilliance of the holy sword El Cid exploded at full power.

Hua Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!

The sun has risen.

The light was so strong like a sunrise that someone could have mistaken it. In an instant, the entire city of Lubena was as bright as day, and people who woke up to the unseasonable sunlight looked out the window.

In some ways, I was very fortunate.

If this light had been pure light and not summoned by a holy sword, everyone who looked out the window would have gone blind.

However, the power of the Holy Sword does not judge the innocent.

“Is it warm…? Oh, the wound is healing?!”

Mercenary Hansen, who had suffered burns all over his body from the , fumbled and made a fuss.

The same was true for Gustav and Leonik.

Even though I was only exposed to that light, I was recovering at a faster rate than Damian’s holy method.

“–no way.”

Unlike the mercenaries, Damien Angela realized the source of the light and opened his eyes wide. The sexual power that had been exhausted to the bottom fills up and caresses their bodies and minds.

Even Elahan, which is considered the best among the sacred dharma instruments of which there are only ten sacred dharma instruments at the headquarters of the Holy Order, cannot reproduce this light.

Holy sword.

And as soon as they realized the meaning of the appearance of the person holding the holy sword, the two Holy Sword Knights put their hands together with expressions of emotion.

“Quaaaaaaa

By then, Andrei was on fire.

All the strength he had gathered in his hands had long since dissipated, and his body, which had been arrogantly looking down at the ground, was already rolling on the ground.

It’s painful.

It’s painful.

Even if you look straight into the midday sun, it won’t be more painful than this. Andrei, who was born as a human and gathered his strength through unclean methods to shed his human mask, is in itself evil.

[The Holy Sword is two or three times more effective against those guys. And the power of the Vampire Lord is not limited to its output. What was more annoying was the skill accumulated over a long life and the knack for using various powers in bizarre ways.]

‘Andrei was a man who didn’t have anything?’

[Well, that’s kind of it. I guess it’s a bit big that I lost my composure because I suddenly became a vampire.]

A wizard’s strength comes from his mental power.

You can only be considered a high-ranking wizard if you can recite spells with a calm expression even when a blade is in front of your neck.

However, Andrei has been confined to his territory for decades and has raised his level by exploiting the power of others. Since I had not been able to sharpen my mental strength through combat experience and had no opponents to make me feel alert, I easily became intoxicated with my own power.

[In addition, the barrier of ‘Bloody Moon’ blocks sunlight from outside, but does not block light generated within the barrier. A fool who knows nothing and is intoxicated with his own power is below third-rate.]

El Cid’s words were cruel, but they were certainly true.

On the contrary to Andrei, Leon did not let down his guard and kept his joker completely hidden, aiming for the right moment to win.

The difference in mindset reversed their positions.

‘You did well to save your strength from when you killed the forest troll. Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been a decisive blow.’

Leon muttered as he watched the light gradually weaken.

It was a preparation for an unexpected situation.

Since Leon’s original skills are still incomplete, he accumulates that power into the holy sword and uses it as his secret weapon. It was a method that El Cid, who had never thought of in that way, could not have thought of.

It was then.

[…Leon!]

The moment the light of the holy sword faded, Leon reflexively rolled to avoid his body.

At the same time, several streaks of blood-red rays exploded at that location.

Kwagwagwagwagwang!

The marble tiles around the mansion are shattered, scattering stone fragments. Cold sweat broke out on the back of Leon’s neck as he immediately guessed its power.

At this level, even a full plate mail can be penetrated with one shot.

It wasn’t an attack power that could be dealt with with confidence in the armor.

■■■■■――!

My eardrums burst.

Blood bursting out of both ears, Leon covered himself with aura and turned to look in the direction from which the light beam came.

Andrey Rubena.

There was a person there who was not even a vampire but had mutated into a monster.

“You look terrible.”

Leon muttered to himself without realizing it.

It had to be that way.

Andrei, whose youthful body had burned like a lump of charcoal and had become a lump of melted flesh, looked like a zombie rather than a nobleman. Perhaps because he was looking directly into the sunlight, his eye sockets were empty and his mind was glowing as if he was not in his right mind.

[There was a runaway. All that remains is instinct.]

El Cid advised while looking at that situation.

[It might be more dangerous now than before. I may not be able to use magic, but I will wield my awakened abilities as a vampire. Watch out for blood and sound shadows.]

‘I understand.’

Leon nodded once and immediately stopped breathing.

It’s the last time.

It was impossible for both Andrei, who had become a rag, and Leon, who had consumed 80% of his Aurors, to fight for long. Probably a few tens of seconds to a minute or so. Winning or losing is determined within it.

Andrei moved first.

■■―! ■■■■■――!

As the flesh wriggles with a roar of unknown meaning, the power of the 3rd generation Nosferatu bloodline is revealed.

The ‘blood’ of the Wallachia clan.

The ‘Voice’ of the Erzsebet clan.

The ‘shadow’ of the Strigoi clan.

Although it was thwarted by unexpected variables, the ceremony Andrei prepared was perfect. If he had been given half a year more time, he would have surpassed the gap of 300 years and become a new vampire lord.

Perhaps he could have successfully combined the powers of the three bloodlines and become a being comparable to the progenitor Dracula.

[Even though they are all dying idiots now!]

Leon moved as he heard cheers that were not cheers from El Cid.

‘I blocked the sound for now.’

The aura was thoroughly wrapped around the head to block sound waves that would destroy one’s sense of balance.

Next is blood.

The blood flowing from Andrei’s body attacked Leon in the form of numerous weapons. Vampire blood itself is a high-density magical power, so when the user’s will is applied, it has the power to tear even steel like a sheet of paper.

Wow!

With one sword strike, three spear blades are cut off, and with the second sword strike, the wave of fresh blood collapses in vain.

Wallachia’s power is especially not compatible with Leon.

Blood is ultimately a part of a vampire, so if it comes into contact with the sun’s auror, it will not be able to survive even for a moment and will collapse. This was a fact I confirmed while staging several fights with Tepes.

‘The remaining question is… is it, after all, a shadow?’

A shadow flew in with a whoosh and cut me on the shoulder.

“Tsk!”

Sharp. Cutting power not much different from . If I hadn’t had any experience sparring with Karen, I would have suffered greatly from the first attack.

Half a step to the left and two steps to the right.

The dazzlingly moving eyes detect the storm of shadows swirling without any sign. Acrobatics that risked one’s life. Even if just one of the ‘Anbeop’ and ‘Bobeop’ are off, your head will be blown off.

Leon did not stop even as his body became covered in blood.

‘little bit more! little bit more!’

Even though all the remaining power in the Holy Sword was used to strengthen the body and the mind entered the realm of selflessness, it was half a beat behind.

Move forward one step at a time, narrowly avoiding fatal injuries.

Three steps forward.

Two steps.

Peek!

As soon as I turned my head to the right, my ear was cut off.

Ignore the sharp pain and blood and move forward again.

Leon’s eyes coolly took aim.

‘-Cut.’

There is no room or need to put on weight. What can cause damage to enemies is not physical power, but the power of his auror and holy sword.

As long as you make contact, the enemy will automatically destroy itself.

Leon took a step in front of Andrei and struck down his sword. The sword is slashed diagonally at a speed that even the afterimage lags behind.

[Shallow!]

Nevertheless, the power of a Lord-level vampire was amazing. Leon’s sword strike did not reach the heart, but only limited to cutting off some of the skin.

Andrei jumped backwards as if struggling and flew more than 50 meters away, his whole body stained with blood.

A strange phenomenon that is extremely ominous.

El Cid, who sensed that intention, immediately taught me.

[No, that bastard?! It will self-destruct in about 15 seconds! Catch it before that happens! I can use 〈Merak〉 now!]

‘You should try it.’

[You did it once last time!]

‘Oh, I did.’ Leon thought with a dazed mind and raised his sword.

50 meters.

It’s close and yet far away.

If you swing your sword normally, you won’t be able to reach it, but if you rush in and cut it down, there isn’t enough time. Fortunately, Leon had the means to overcome that distance.

‘…I have no choice but to do it?’

Gather all the remaining auror as much as a rat’s tail and press it into the blade.

In the Auror house.

If you can’t kill him with this one hit, he and the rest of his party will all die. It was clear that if a vampire who could process life force like a bomb sacrificed his own body, this area would be devastated.

Keying.

A faint light gathers on El Cid’s blade.

It is a small and weak light compared to Andrei, which is boiling red in the distance. I wondered if I would be able to reach there even if I swung it like this, and the density of the aura gradually increased.

The “Seven-Star Sword” whose name once entered the legend of Roderick.

Angela’s eyes lit up when she recognized it before Damian, who was more of a scholar, did.

‘Take a good look, damn master.’

Leon’s eyes had already lost focus.

Maybe it’s because I lost so much blood, but my mind feels blank.

Without even knowing what I was saying, the skills and beliefs imprinted on my body naturally flow in one direction.

“■■ kk■■ khahahahahaha!”

Andrei, who was full of malice towards others until the end and was laughing murderously, swelled greatly.

The ugly shape was round like a red moon.

2 seconds before the big explosion.

The moment when someone who was prepared to die closed his eyes tightly.

Leon moved at the fastest speed in my life.

Kiiiiing—!

The wave of light divided the world horizontally.
