656 – 8. Will (30)

“A complacent idea that revenge will come somehow in life.”

The blade is wrapped in flames.

“The illusion that even if I turn my back on the world, there will be someone who will be by my side.”

A girl preparing for battle in a world of heat where even the shadow of fire does not exist in the middle of the flames that burn the entire field of view.

It was a picture-like scene. The fact that it was an illustration of tragedy only squeezed Ian’s heart.

Celine’s words went on and on.

“Of course, I do not resent you. It was a natural choice, right? If it was Ian oppa, I knew that would be the case.”

“Celine, please… talk some more…… !”

“Did you say something like this had happened before?”

The girl uttered that while staring at the sky with unlit eyes.

“Then let’s do it again. I have no intention of listening to my brother like I did back then, and my brother wants me to listen to him somehow, right?”

One step.

It was only a single step, but with that small gesture, Celine’s mood changed completely. The flames all over the place simmered, and her breath raised the temperature that was still choking her jaw.

If she hadn’t reached High Expert, she would have suffocated or burned to death.

“So, win.”

And another step.

No, it wasn’t a step. The sword of the girl who leaped without even helping was shot like a ray of light. Ian’s throat was the target of the sting, which created a fierce piercing sound like a silver snake.

It was an obvious trick.

Kang, the sword swung according to instinct sparks. Even though it was only a moment of inattention, Celine’s offensive was fierce.

The flames wrapped around the blade were swallowing Ian’s sword.

As soon as she used the sun to drive away the flames, the girl who slightly lowered her posture met the eyes of her man.

“Just like back then… ….”

What are you talking about?

Among those countless couples, when on earth are you talking about?

Ian wanted to ask, but he didn’t have the time. But she only had one flashing memory.

Was it the first day I met Celine?

However, the flashbacks did not continue.

“Once again!”

The attitude of a woman combined with her elasticity soars at a merciless speed.

Kang!

I was in the middle of raising my aura with an incomplete image. Ian couldn’t stand the blow and had to take her two steps backwards to shed the rest of the shock.

Of course, the offensive was not over.

Kang, Kang, Kang, Kang!

Innumerable sword strikes in succession strike like bombs. The sound of flames scorching the air could be heard whenever the pure white blade drew a wide fan. Hwareuk, Hwareuk, how many times.

In the end, Ian’s balance collapsed once again as he couldn’t break the chain of workshops. Since she couldn’t block the upward cut from the lower cut, her arms were open as if she were cheering for life.

Kagagakgagak!

It is absurd to parry a blow in a straight posture with a collapsed body. So, Ian had no choice but to face him obliquely, as if to let off Celine’s next sword attack.

She was the best, but not her best choice.

As Ian stepped back, Celine’s sword again drew a solid line of flame. Ian’s body twisted slightly as she stumbled backwards, pretending to be a coincidence.

And the moment Celine’s sword barely burned Ian’s clothes.

Twisting her body, a hand freed from her sword groped her waist. It wasn’t Celine who didn’t know what the next blow would be.

So, one more step.

Ian’s eyebrows twisted as he completely dug into his arms. It wasn’t a good choice for a swordsman who wields a long weapon like an attitude.

But it was a story when even that was enough to dig into his arms.

Celine crossed over and tried to knock down Ian’s body. It is a clear fact that Ian, who has already lost his balance, will be at a disadvantage in a power struggle.

In the end, Ian had no choice but to swear and kick. As hard as possible, to widen the distance rather than expecting a straight hit.

The superhuman leg strength did its job in the end. Ian’s body floated as if pushed through the air, and within a couple of turns he regained his balance.

Even that is a while.

Cool, Ian’s pupils shook as he coughed up blood. Seeing the staggering body once again, Ian had to inadvertently spit out a curse.

“Oh sh*t…… !”

Boom!

Ian didn’t have the strength to resist the collision of Celine, who jumped as if running. After another round of rolling on the ground, Ian’s hatchet was already far away when he hurriedly looked for his sidearm.

I have a headache. His whole body hurts. There was no feeling in his hand that held his sword. I couldn’t feel the oxygen in my gasping breath. It was a hazy mind, a precursor to suffocation.

Can we lose like this?

An unfamiliar sense of crisis presses on Ian’s heart. Ian’s consciousness was further clouded by the pounding heartbeat.

Is that why?

The image of the distant ‘future’ penetrates the brain once again. Memories that do not belong to me, slowly spreading through my vision like paint stains.

The saintess with auburn hair laughed.

“You still don’t know, Ian?”

It was a white smile. Enough to blind your eyes.

“Because I didn’t want to lose anything… ….”

My body hurts. I want to fall like this I wonder if the man in my memory felt this way too.

Severe despair hangs over your tongue like bitter poison. Bitter, bitter

And the moment the woman’s pretty lips were about to open again.

A thud, and an intense pain in her heart, brought Ian back to her senses. She still had pain in her body. I wanted to vomit blood, collapse, and pass out right away.

Nevertheless, an unknown force was running through his veins.

It hurts so much.

From noble mtl dot com

But intensely.

It was not unfamiliar. She had felt it in her memories of stealing it, and had borrowed it many times.

It was the power of the man from the future.

I didn’t know why she was acting out of control when she didn’t want this, though I didn’t know why.

Ian had to lift her up, letting out her screams.

“Sally Yiyin!”

The girl was nowhere to be seen even in her voice, which was so sad that it was more like a cry, and her screams that squeezed the lungs out.

Only a tidal wave of flames covering the sky awaits her Ian.

It didn’t matter. Ian immediately kicked off the ground and was shot, and a solid silver line followed him, splitting the world in a straight line.

Truly one island.

The wave of flames that seemed to set the whole world on fire was swept away. Before the cutting edge even opened, Ian was already running madly and aiming for the back.

Once again, the battle with Celine was revealed.

Boom, bang, bang!

It was not a horror that swords and swords could create. Every time the blades collide, there is an explosion, the ground sinks, and even the flames that cover the area in the shock wave do not dare to enter the battlefield.

Thirteen is Celine.

Unlike before, Ian’s momentum was fierce. To the point that even Celine, who was like a flame, could not gain the upper hand.

Nevertheless, the limits were clear.

Pak.

Blood spurted out of Ian’s arm. It was the result of blood that could not overcome her blood pressure. It wasn’t normal, of course, but it was already too late for Ian to care about the matter.

The bloodshot eyes call out the name of an old childhood friend.

“Celine…… !”

A girl who once smiled like the sun and was as beautiful as the sun.

The dance of iron, flame, and blood was extremely beautiful. The strike, which was practical and contained only the intent to kill without any superfluities, was more aesthetically pleasing.

“Celine!”

Pak again.

Blood spurted from Ian’s thigh. It was clear that the body was collapsing in real time. Even so, Ian only stumbled for a moment.

Swords, hatchets, jujutsu.

A barrage of even dragon blood characters and simple magic made Celine gasp for breath and hit her backwards. And she catches her breath for a moment, and replays.

It was then. A stream of blood gushed out of Ian’s remaining arm, blocking Celine’s vision for an instant.

Kick, Ian’s kicking gets stuck in the pit of the stomach.

“Keep, ugh…… ?!”

Celine’s body, unable to properly vomit her moans, flew through the air. It was Celine’s mistake that she didn’t know how to use even her own bleeding as part of the tactic.

And the next moment.

Using her foot as a stepping stone, Ian threw her hatchet with a full swing of her arm. At a speed that could catch up with even Celine, who had already bounced off the ground several times.

Even so, she was in the middle of the air, so I couldn’t get her posture. Celine had no choice but to grit her teeth and sharpen her hatchet.

Of course, that didn’t mean it wasn’t a failure.

Boom!

A hatchet with unbelievable strength for throwing it hastily.

For the price of slashing it high into the sky, Celine’s body sank deep into the ground. For the first time, blood flowed from Celine’s mouth.

Ian attacks.

It was a natural result. Now that she was shocked enough to make her body go numb, the collapsed Celine was nothing more than good prey.

Defeat.

Celine intuited that future. I really didn’t know that this would happen again.

The girl’s hand swung at her like a last-ditch effort. It wasn’t even a blade, it was a blow that was swung with the blade to somehow increase the contact area.

There was no way Ian Perkus would allow this ridiculously slow blow.

Yes.

If it was that ‘Ian Percus’.

Squeeze, Celine’s hand felt the sensation. It was also ‘Jeongta’. Celine’s empty eyes questioned her Ian.

There is a man staggering with unfocused eyes.

The amount of blood poured out before long was unusual. Celine caught her gasping breath and slowly raised her body.

“…… Okay.”

A low chant. And, one leg.

One kick was enough. Ian vomited blood and rolled on the ground as he fell.

While exhaling heavily.

Celine muttered in a dry voice.

“I see.”

Is it ridicule or lamentation?

Celine tried to twitch the corners of her mouth, but gave up. Her feelings, which she burned out long ago, are left only ashes.

No inspiration could move Celine’s heart.

The girl who lost her heart took her stride.

“Brother Ian, the truth is… I knew. If you were my brother, you would answer like that.”

It was a tone as crackling as ash. A way of speaking that conveys only the facts, without any particular elevation.

Celine’s expression was already deeply sunken.

“Your brother has been like that since long ago, right? I want to save everyone, I don’t want to give up on anyone… I mean, neither me nor the world could have chosen. Because my brother is that kind of person.”

“Three, Celine… ….”

At some point, right in front of Ian.

Celine heard her man call her name as she fumbled with her broken tongue. The hand of the girl who held her attitude was slowly gaining strength.

I pointed my sword down and lifted it slowly.

What that meant was clear.

“Is that why I liked it?”

“No, no… You, then…….”

Even in a half-conscious state, Ian’s pleas were earnest. Celine stared at her face, her voice, as if imprinting it on her heart.

Her hand holding her sword began to tremble.

I don’t even know why.

“So, when I found out that my brother was not on my side… Was it that painful? The fact that I have no choice but to fight alone, because I am afraid of that fate.”

A brooding monologue.

The more Celine muttered in such a dry voice, the more she felt the trembling in the girl’s hands. Soon she regained her composure, and no light shone on the woman during the day.

“Brother Ian.”

On the contrary, I don’t know if it’s a shade.

“Because I didn’t want to lose anything… ….”

That’s it.

Kick.

“You will lose it.”

The sound of Celine’s blade piercing her solid resounded. She didn’t even hesitate, and the blade plunged down without even delay.

It was digging into the ground at the side of Ian’s neck.

Eventually, Celine drew her sword once more, and on Celine’s face, there was literally no trace of emotion.

The whispers, like embers, dispersed like smoke.

“The calculation is over now. If we meet again as enemies next time…….”

Celine, who had been chanting in a dry tone, finally put her attitude in order. And as she turned around, she only threw a word at her old relationship, who was muttering my name endlessly.

“At that time, I won’t let you live… Ian Percus.”

So the girl left.

Burning up the emotions of a time that shone like the sun, and brushing off the remaining fire.

It was a step too late when the reinforcements called by Shien arrived. Ian, who collapsed in a state of disrepair, was still muttering sobbing.

“No, no… Celine… You, as much as you…….”

In a battlefield where only residual fire burns.
