Sword Pilgrim

Episode 224

Darkness where not even a handful of moonlight penetrates.

Lutheon was in that darkness.

The moment he took out his pitch-black sword.

Colius’s body dissipated into darkness.

What ability does the sword have?

A power that would overwhelm one’s ability that had already been used as a sanctuary?

‘I can’t feel any signs.’

Shortly after he became a Master with the Changseongsoo bestowed by the King of Gong.

Lutheon’s sense of humor became more special.

Even if I close my eyes or block my ears, the area of qi sense expands, so I can see without looking and hear without hearing.

but right now

In this darkness, that power felt useless.

I didn’t feel any prayer.

He couldn’t feel his own energy, so he wondered if he was alive or not.

“…”

In that darkness.

spam. Lutheon only felt the sensation of being cut in his chest.

“Quaaaaaagh!”

ache.

burning sensation.

I can only feel the warmth of the hot blood pouring from my chest.

“Where are you! Where are you!!”

Whoo! Whoo!!

I spin the window round and round to stab it, but it doesn’t taste good. He howls like a beast and swings his spear, but all he sees is darkness.

Only the sensation of piercing the air returns.

There is no sight, no sound, no sensation.

All you can hear is the beating of your heart and your own screaming voice.

and.

squeak.

The horrifying sound of one’s own flesh being cut.

“You bastard!! Where are you!! Callies!! Son of a bitch, where are you hiding!!”

Shaking off the blood dripping from his forearm, he swung the spear.

The regenerative power of Lutheon, who became a beast with the power of a spear, was beyond human.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is equivalent to a troll.

Wounds regenerate quickly unless completely cut off.

But the pain doesn’t go away.

You could tell by looking at Luteon, which glowed more each time the wound increased.

Chew squeak.

Repeated pain followed.

My chest is cut and my back is cut.

When the back of the neck was coldly cut.

finger cut off

“come out! come out!! Fight fair and square! Are you still a knight?!”

A sense of danger rose to the tip of his chin.

No matter how much the regenerative power has increased, the thought that I will die at this rate fills my head. Lutheon put the spear on his side and began to gather strength.

and one day.

“A rampant lion.”

Lutheon’s spear sprinkled golden light.

As he pierced the spear into the air, golden lions began to appear from the tip of the spear with waving manes. Dozens of lions spewed out lion roars at once and scattered in all directions.

Thanks to that, Luteon’s appearance returned to that of a human instead of a beast.

I can’t feel the energy, but with this, I can find out where he is.

And just then.

I found his location.

But I couldn’t be happier.

Colius right behind him.

Because it was sitting behind my back.

When he realized that he was alive, a knife had already been inserted into his throat without even realizing it.

“Is it a sword that handles darkness?”

“It is the sword that calls the night.”

The world consists of day and night.

Work hard during the day and rest and sleep at night.

Darkness calls for night.

It is a sword that grants the opponent eternal rest and eternal sleep.

“This sword is a sword made from a black dragon. A dragon that has lived for thousands of years. But he said he couldn’t fall asleep easily.”

Even if the war of the dragon horse war is over.

Even if a peace treaty was signed.

The war is not over in him.

So he couldn’t sleep.

It is said that when he closed his eyes, his fallen comrades and compatriots cried out and his dead children disturbed his heart.

So, after spending the last thousand years awake, he calls his black night and falls asleep.

“Luteon.”

“say.”

“How long are you going to stay asleep?”

“what?”

slip.

when you open your eyes again

Luteon was located in a field of golden wheat.

“…since when did I.”

“It was right after I took out the sword.”

gulp.

Swallowing dry saliva, Lutheon tightly wrapped his arms around the spear.

It was all just a dream and an illusion.

He fell asleep standing up in this field of golden wheat, and in front of him stood Calius with a sword unconcerned.

“It’s a creepy sword…”

“Is that so? Maybe.”

“You’ll regret not killing me right away.”

Grab the window and take a stance.

Soon, Lutheon’s new model is launched.

Luteon, who was shot like an arrow and hid in a wheat field, tricked the eyes of Colius with golden lions.

Do you throw a spear in the gap?

hook!!

Colius’ loin was cut.

“under! ha ha ha!!”

He laughed at Colius, who collapsed with joy.

That moment when he was preparing for the end by stepping on the fallen upper body of Colius.

“Luteon.”

Callius called for Lutheon.

“Is this your last will? don’t listen tell me.”

“How long are you going to stay asleep?”

“What…”

Slurr.

The landscape collapses.

The surrounding wheat fields, crushed like crushed paint, disappear, and before you know it, only darkness encroaches on Luteon.

“What is this?”

Realizing that he had been made fun of, Rutheon’s forehead was bloodied.

“Callius ugh!!”

As he screams in excitement, he suddenly realizes that his left hand hurts.

invisible

But you can tell.

“The hand…”

does not move.

no.

Blood flows.

“Ahhh…?”

numbness down the forearm

no it doesn’t exist

“Aaaaaaaaaaa!!”

The arm had already been cut off.

The moment you try to stop the bleeding on your left arm with your right hand.

“ah?”

He didn’t even have a right hand.

Even if you try to squeeze your hand, it won’t.

Before I knew it, both of my arms had been cut off.

“Is this also a dream!! Colliers!!”

fault!!

the darkness recedes

In between, the moonlight descends.

The moonlight falling through the window of the crumbling mansion shines on Luteon.

A blonde beast that fell on its knees and lost its arms.

“When…”

“From the beginning.”

“…”

Can’t win.

Even though he reached Master level, he couldn’t even feel or understand anything.

What is the difference between swords? Or is it a matter of skill?

If you don’t know if it’s one or two, Callius had too many things compared to Luteon.

huge wall.

Sensing the huge wall between himself and Colius, Lutheon looked down at his severed arm as if he had lost his will.

“Luteon. I have a daughter.”

“…What are you saying?”

Are you trying to mock yourself?

Lutheon let out a blank laugh with a pale face.

“I am fifteen.”

“…?”

“She is Ailee’s daughter.”

“…”

Rutheon was speechless.

Then, he spat out a word.

“Does she know?”

The spilled blood turns into a puddle.

His complexion was gradually turning whiter than moonlight.

Death was hanging over him.

“Know.”

“I bet you don’t remember.”

“No. Still, he seemed to be feeling something. because they look a lot alike You seem to feel maternal love.”

Lutheon looked up blankly, looked at me, looked at the moon, looked into the air, and said blankly.

“It was before you.”

“I see.”

“okay. From the past. She was my salvation.”

I remembered the old days.

When he was forced to resign from the position of head of household because he was born a little late.

I didn’t even get a chance to compete.

It was a rebellion to go to a monastery to become a pilgrim.

I headed to the monastery to feed the famous family.

A child I met on the way to the royal road.

Ailee de Berryaren.

I fell in love straight away.

But it was immediately taken away.

To what mannani.

After that she disappeared.

I tried to find out by getting close to the madman, but this scumbag didn’t know anything.

Only the time spent hanging out was a waste.

After spending so many years, he left as a pilgrim.

And when it flowed and headed for the empire.

After seeing her, he returned to the Empire.

There was no hesitation.

Because nothing was mine in the sword.

“But it always gets stolen.”

It was rather good because I lost my memory.

Because I had to start all over again.

Rather, I thought it was fortunate that I had forgotten him.

Her position was too high, but she had to climb up and catch up.

And years passed.

He had just become a master and stood on the same starting line as her.

I came all the way here to meet her.

But in the end, what greeted him was not a saint, but a guy named Death.

“Damn you child. I’ve hated you terribly since the old days.”

Rutheon hated Callius to the point of wanting to kill him right now.

Because I’ve been sabotaging myself.

“Is it? Surprisingly, there were parts where I felt right. So did I.”

The focus was disappearing from the eyes of Lutheon, who smiled sarcastically.

“Callius.”

“Tell me.”

“Ailee…”

Something formed in his blurred eyes.

The image of her that I had always wanted to see in my dreams was reflected in my eyes.

He was looking at him with a smile he had never shown before.

Oh this is a kaleidoscope

Understanding this, Lutheon closed his eyes and lowered his head.

“Please take care of her.”

There is no one else to ask for.

Rutheon couldn’t help but admit it.

Did she see his potential right away?

Or what.

I don’t know.

It gets darker in front of your eyes.

drowsiness came

“I will.”

Callius looked at Lauren.

Lauren’s hands trembled and the sword she held also trembled. However, as much as the tears in his eyes, he was looking straight at Luteon.

“Die!!”

Pooh!! Fighting.

Falling blood fountains landed everywhere.

The eyes of Lutheon, who was struck by a sword in the heart and collapsed, stared at something without hesitation.

‘I wanted to see you last.’

In the end, he couldn’t see it, and Lutheon’s eyes soon lost their light.

It was the end of Luteon, which had turned cold like the cold night sky.

* * *

Whiing.

The woman turned her back to the cool wind and tilted her head as if wondering.

“What is there?”

“no. Just…”

“Just why?”

The pink-haired woman tilted her head for a while, shrugged her shoulders, and walked along the road in sync.

“It just gave me goosebumps all of a sudden.”

“Would there be a ghost?”

“No way.”

A pink-haired woman with a smile.

Saint Ailee asked the woman she was walking with while walking on the royal road.

“But is that really true?”

“Ah, the queen is getting married?”

The woman walking with Ailee is Obarna.

It was Ovarna who worshiped the god of Bon.

“I felt a sense of crisis, so the nobles must have encouraged it. I’m old and I’m royalty. This time, the South has also been like that. They said that the lineage of the four nobles should not be cut off, so they will marry the one remaining child.”

The Four Great Nobles who have obtained God’s grace.

And the lineage of the royal family must never be cut off.

It was also the duty of nobles and royalty.

Because I can’t let God’s grace that is connected to the lineage be cut off.

As the time is the season, the marriage between the nobility was a device to connect the bonds between each other and induce harmony.

“I guess so.”

“Wouldn’t the queen marry him, too? There are only daughters in the direct line of Zervan, but no sons.”

“…”

“Actually, this is what I secretly overheard from Chloe.”

Whisper.

“The Queen… with Count Zervan? But can royalty and four nobles marry? If that happens, the lineage on either side will disappear.”

“It doesn’t matter too much. It’s just a matter of having a concubine.”

“Ah…”

It was the moment her expression darkened.
