A Famous Traitor and Treacherous Genius

356 – Last Dance Towards the End (2)

What should we do to defeat the strong?

To conclude, all you have to do is make an attack that can neutralize your opponent into an effective hit.

Whether you kill or subdue your opponent, just use the weapon you are holding to defeat your opponent.

There is no need for profound logic, consideration of swordsmanship, or discourse on martial arts right now.

Only one.

Kill the enemy in front of you.

Kill the enemy using any method you can think of.

“Haha! As expected, you are learning Nostrum’s sword!”

The emperor, holding the great sword with both hands, blocks the rapier with the blade of the great sword.

Every time you stab the auror gathered at the tip of the rapier, you hit the end of the handle with the great sword as if holding on to the blade of the auror.

“Among the knights of Nostrum, there are those who have learned the rapier! It is the most traditional weapon used in dueling etiquette! But it is no use!”

The emperor takes a big step backwards and holds the great sword horizontally.

“Because it’s short!”

Boom!

A great sword passes before his eyes.

If I had been late in pulling my head back just a little, I would have had my head blown off like the Marquis Zeros.

“Can you narrow the distance?”

Distance difference.

You wouldn’t know it if you were fighting fairly with the same rapier, but you can’t defeat a greatsword with a rapier.

Chae-Aeng!

Throws a rapier and lifts a spear stuck to the side.

The tip of the spear is sharply extended, and the length of the spear is longer than the great sword carried by the emperor.

“Roland style spear technique! That was something I learned before returning!”

As soon as the rapier is thrown away, the source of the spear is recognized just by the basic formula.

“It specializes in stabbing!”

Stab three places at the same time.

One on the shoulder, one on the heart, and one on the solar plexus.

“But it has already been destroyed!”

The emperor swings his great sword on the floor and turns his body sideways.

‘I expected avoidance.’

The first strike that was aimed at the shoulder was blocked by the great sword, the second strike that pierced the heart missed the heart at an angle and pierced the air, and the third attack that was pulled quickly and stabbed towards the expected point was-

Kaaang!

The emperor lifted the straight sword that was stuck next to him and flicked the tip of the spear, blocking it.

“Is that the end?”

Spearmanship doesn’t work.

However, he continues his offensive by stabbing his spear.

“Since the spear doesn’t work, my eyes look for other weapons.”

Swing the sword with one hand and widen the distance behind each stab.

“Axe? Halberd? Or mace? “What were you trying to use?”

It makes the person holding the spear impatient to chase after him, and quickly glances at the weapon that caught my eye.

“Indeed.”

“Huh…!”

Throw the spear forward quickly.

At an angle where you can’t avoid it, at an angle where you have to use a straight sword to deflect it.

From noble mtl dot come

And in the meantime, he pulls out the sword stuck on the ground, spins it lightly and makes a horizontal slash.

“Gibraltar!”

Ka-ang.

“It’s your father’s technique!”

I thought he would throw away the spear and lose his stance, but the emperor caught my sword with his feet straight.

“Probably, I learned the most before returning! The reason I didn’t learn the sword after returning is because I would have already mastered Gibraltar’s swordsmanship!”

That’s right.

Everything from picking up a weapon to the weapon handling system is being destroyed, but if you don’t try, you won’t know if the path is blocked.

Aim for the head and cut diagonally.

In line with the sword, the blade of the ultramarine auror flies out with both hands, as if drawing an exact cross.

Ka-euang!

“Grey. When it comes to technology, your father is better.”

The moment when Aurors collide with each other, swords clashing, and a tug-of-war between Aurors.

“But what is this magical power?”

The emperor momentarily pulls back and folds one leg.

“!!”

Lower the sword down.

At the same time, a military boot with an aura is embedded in my abdomen.

Pa-ang!

Powerful shock wave.

It is not a simple kick, but a powerful blow that blows the person away through the impact of magical energy.

I stepped back.

The sword that blocked the kick is now tattered and broken, so he throws it forward and grabs the weapons on the left and right as if crossing them.

“As far as mana, you’re better than the Marquis!”

The emperor catches the broken sword flying towards his face.

An ultramarine aura rose above the cross section of the broken blade, and I swung the weapons held on my left and right forward as if crossing them.

“Two swords!”

The length of the sword is similar.

In that case, you have no choice but to move the two swords separately.

Haha! Interesting! Unleashing two sword techniques with one body?!”

The aura extends from the broken sword.

With a sword the same length as a b*stard sword, the emperor lowers his posture while grasping the sword with both hands.

Hold the left sword horizontally and stab forward.

The right sword, hidden beneath the blade, digging in like a dagger.

“The sword of a knight and an assassin!

The first strike is blocked by the sword, but the blade hidden in the first strike passes by the side of the sword.

The end is towards the heart of the emperor.

“I can see it!”

It’s late.

Could it have been the root of the fire that was erected vertically to stab it the fastest?

“There was someone who tried to assassinate me like this.”

In that brief moment, the emperor twisted his body sideways toward his heart and thrust his sword between his armpits.

“Grey, you are also learning the art of arm extension!”

“Tsk… !”

The sword does not come out.

My aura also resides in the blade of the sword stuck between my armpit and forearm, and the emperor wrapped the aura around his skin and suppressed my sword with the power of his muscles his.

Throw away two swords.

And at the same time, lower your body downward and move your feet back significantly.

Pakak!

With the instep of the aura-filled foot, strike the sword body between the armpits.

The blade shatters in an instant, and the splintered pieces shoot out toward the emperor.

“This is a technique I don’t know about!”

The emperor smiles brightly.

Even as the blade flies towards his face, the emperor still slowly sinks without losing his smile-

“!!”

The emperor’s body falls backwards.

His body fell as if he was falling, and at the same time, the leg that was pointing down was suddenly flying from the other side of me.

Head this way.

Kwa-eu-ang.

“…!!”

A side kick to the waist.

He momentarily raised his mana to protect his side his, but the emperor placed the weight of his body his floating in the air on his feet his.

Bertie-

Per— billion.

The world speeds up, and your body comes to mind in an instant.

If you have the complacent thought that if you fly like this, you’ll hit the wall, you’ll just die.

“Hmm…!”

Reach out your hand and grab something stuck on the floor.

It doesn’t matter what it is.

If you didn’t grab it and hold on, if you didn’t quickly recover –

“Outside the field, you know it’s a loss, right?”

The moment you are thrown through the window, you will fall from an altitude of several kilometers above the ground – even now, on the battlefield, which is rising in real time.

“Non-siege Grayberg is now heading to the royal capital. So, if you don’t kill me quickly, the royal capital will be annihilated.”

“Ha, ha, ha.”

The emperor shakes off his dusty hands and glances outside.

“Are the people of the royal capital believing in and praying to the hero Gray, or are they telling them to run away quickly because the traitor will catch up with the emperor?”

“I’m not interested.”

Pick up the axe.

“Ho, even clay dolls? Is there enough power?”

“I have enough power, but I also have enough mana.”

It is a ridiculously large double-edged ax like the one used by Marquis Claydoll, but he holds it lightly with one hand and supports it with the other hand.

“Out of the eight masters, Marquis Claydol was the only one killed by you. Did you learn it while fighting him, or before he returned?”

“Guess what, take a look!”

It runs forward, emitting a gray aura.

“If you run with a heavy weapon, you will consume more stamina.”

The emperor walks backwards, spreading his free hands to the left and right.

It’s not fast, but it generates more mana at intervals that are farther than I expected.

“But where did you get that much mana?”

The emperor looks with a straight face.

“Did they use false gold? That can’t be possible. Gibraltar can’t do that.”

Marquis Claydoll’s basic technique is to swing wide and cut off the top of the enemy’s head so they can’t say anything.

“Where does that explosive man come from?”

Before reaching the emperor, jump upwards three steps ahead.

“It’s probably not something you inherited from your father.”

The emperor with analyzing eyes calmly folded his arms inward.

“Ah.”

Dok2.

“Did your ancestors give it to you?”

It stopped in front of the emperor’s head, just a piece of paper away.

The two hands on the left and right, joined together like an emperor, press the surface of the ax blade with force and aura, preventing the ax blade from moving any further.

“This…!”

“As expected, you are just like me. That’s right. What’s the point in being respectful to the remains of the dead? The people who live on the continent are important.”

It gives strength to the ax handle.

I press the handle with my whole body to somehow force the aura contained in the blade of the handle.

“But, it’s no use.”

The emperor twists his hands.

At the same time, the handle of the ax was twisted in the direction the emperor had twisted it, and I quickly let go of the ax handle and rolled my body to the side.

“No matter how many weapons you handle.”

The emperor grabs the ax blade and throws it behind his shoulder.

“Me too, that’s why.”

The moment the ax blade, thrown backwards, goes over, the ax handle flows like water into the emperor’s hand.

“As expected, you and I are alike.”

Hold the handle with one hand, grab the double-edged ax thrown behind you, turn your body forward, and grab the ax while sliding in that direction.

“Marquis Claydoll lost his leg to me at this time.”

Like drawing the trajectory of the crescent moon, the ax blade heads towards me.

“What about you?”

What do you think?

Taken for granted.

Suddenly.

Cut and cut.

“As expected.”

He cuts the ax straight through and swings it forward quickly.

There is no weapon in hand.

However, the blade created by ‘Auror’ is already reaching towards the emperor with substance at the end of my finger.

Suddenly.

Red blood splatters into the sky.

Along with a little bit of clothing, dark red blood drops shoot toward the sky.

“As expected. If it had been one more year… No, half a year more, I would have had my head blown off without even being able to face each other a few times.”

The emperor laughs and steps back.

“I wonder how many times I must have swung my sword for this strike.”

The clothes on his shoulders were slightly open, but other than that, there were no other injuries.

“Haa, haa, haa…”

It was shallow.

Although he infused quite a lot of mana, the blade only grazed over his heart and cut his shoulder.

“Don’t you think it’s a twist of fate? The eldest son born in Gibraltar, a famous swordsman, is best at wielding an imperial blade.”

“…Unfortunately.”

I took a deep breath and grabbed the knife.

“Shouldn’t it be called the Aperia style, not the Imperial Swordsmanship?”

“…It’s an elf sword. If you were trying to make people uncomfortable, that’s the right answer.”

“But if you think about it, it’s not even an Aperia type.”

“It’s relaxing. Seeing you being respected again.”

“It’s because I grabbed the knife.”

It is more familiar than a sword, a spear, a double sword, or an ax.

“If I were to say that the first person who taught me how to use a sword in all my memories is my teacher, then this method of swordsmanship would be called the ‘Astasia style.'”

“…”

“Your daughter was my teacher.”

“… She It was the only one that reached it.”

The emperor smiles broadly and puts his hand on his shoulder.

Drops of blood flowed from between his fingers, but the emperor smiled and pressed his hand to his shoulder.

“The blade forged from my daughter is making me bleed. Astacia, that child’s hostility and fear toward me is being forged into revenge in your hands.”

“Astacia also wishes. It doesn’t matter whether it’s the Imperial Swordsmanship Act or anything, or what the weapon is.”

“It will be enough to come up with just one result, and that result will be ‘kill me.'”

“I’ll give you 10,000 points.”

“Ha–!”

The emperor bursts into laughter, tearing off his damaged clothes and throwing them back.

“This is the best reward! Then, we should also deal with these Habsburgs with the weapons we use best!”

Underneath the torn robes.

Something that is pulled out from behind the back, as if something tied behind the back has become untied and falls.

“With this sword, I defeated Crimson Gibraltar.”

Hold the sword wrapped in bandages without a sheath and extend it forward.

A long sword that seemed to be made of white silver without any decoration stuck out.

The most basic sword that can be found on the very first page of the Imperial Weapon Encyclopedia.

“What is this famous sword made of? Vampire bone powder? Silver dragon body?”

“The highest quality steel in the empire, and my blood and sweat.”

“…It means it’s handmade.”

“Yes, I knocked 10,000 times.”

An extremely ordinary long sword.

“Weapons, after all.”

“An object to kill an opponent.”

I took my stance again.

“Will the history of Gibraltar that you have built be depleted first, or will I be the first to fall to your will?”

“Why are you talking so grandiosely? If I run out of mana, it will be your victory, and if I cut you down before that, it will be my victory.”

“Your breathing has become very difficult?”

“No way.”

I start to feel out of breath, but I suppress it with mana and generate the aura again.

“There is still one room left that I haven’t shown you.”

Hold a knife.

“Just for this one time, the blow I’ve been swinging every night until now.”

Cut down.

Risking your life.
