Swordmaster Wants to Live Peacefully Episode 155

Hraesvelgr (8)

Golden light pierced Hraesvelgr’s eyes.

It was a detestable light.

The flickering golden light, seen countless times during Ragnarok [the end of the world in Norse mythology], was proof of the Aesir gods [the principal gods of the Norse pantheon].

Hraesvelgr realized that these Valkyries [female figures who choose who may die in battle and who may live] had come to kill him.

Chasing him even after he had been defeated and fled from Ragnarok.

To prevent him, the master of the wind at the northern end, from even flapping his wings.

Normally, he would have ripped apart the insides of those Valkyries with his powerful claws.

Cowardly bastards.

Watching and waiting to come through the door at the moment he was weakest.

-Damn Odin! Damn Aesir bastards-!!

Hraesvelgr’s cry, filled with resentment, echoed loudly.

He was already furious that some humans had suddenly invaded and disturbed his rest, and now even Odin’s Valkyries had set foot on this land.

-All, all of you! I will kill you all!

Hraesvelgr began to unleash his magic.

All the magic flowing through the vast land gathered around Hraesvelgr, creating a powerful storm.

Dozens of tornadoes raged around him.

The tornadoes, which began to rise as if to suck everything up, mercilessly tore apart the surroundings.

“That crazy bird!”

Jeanne, who was preparing a shield against the unusual flow of magic, deployed it as soon as she saw the tornado.

If she had been even a little late, one of them would have been swept away by the tornado and disappeared.

The storm covered the world as if it had a will of its own.

Jeanne shouted over the sudden natural disaster.

“Hetris! Is Hetris okay?!”

“If the barrier holds, probably!”

Hetris, who was not a combatant, was moved far away, and a protective barrier was set up.

If that was intact, he would have survived the current disaster.

Jeanne frowned and stared at Hraesvelgr.

Hraesvelgr, who had sucked up all the magic in the atmosphere, was burning even his own life force, enveloping the area in a storm.

He looked as if he didn’t care about his own death.

‘He seems very angry…….’

At this rate, it was a race against time.

Either the rampaging Hraesvelgr would grind everything around him into nothing.

Or they would kill Hraesvelgr first.

If it were Yuseongwoo, he would have definitely made the latter decision.

Jeanne looked at Baek Woo-hyun.

He was clenching his sword in his hand with a troubled expression, but he was not despairing.

He looked ready to fight as much as needed.

‘I have to, right?’

How did I end up doing something like this? I was dispatched from the Witch Society for the Sword Soul, but.

I didn’t think I had enough loyalty to risk my life fighting…….

Jeanne bit her lip and raised the staff in her hand high before slamming it into the ground.

Then, the staff flashed and soon transformed into a spear-flag fluttering, emitting even more intense magic and reinforcing the shield.

Those standing under the flag fluttering in the wind could not take their eyes off it for a moment.

It was a flag that those interested in history or religion would have seen at least once.

“I don’t know anymore!”

Jeanne shouted and spun the spear-flag in her hand, then slammed it into the ground again.

A halo of light enveloped all the divers.

A wide-area buff began to pour into them.

It was the kind that removed harmful effects and invigorated those within a certain space.

That alone changed the divers’ momentum.

They felt like they could do anything.

“Let’s go!”

Baek Woo-hyun shouted, emitting electricity, and the others followed him.

The Sword Soul divers stepped into mythology.

* * *

My head is spinning.

Is it because I lost a lot of blood, or because I’m drunk on battle…….

Yuseongwoo shook his head violently and took a long breath.

Only then did his hazy mind clear up a little.

“…There are still three left.”

How many minutes have passed since the battle with the Valkyries began?

It couldn’t have been that long. Because he divided time into small pieces, and then divided it again, he spent one minute like an hour.

Yuseongwoo swept back his blood-stained hair and shook the blood off his sword.

He succeeded in stabbing one spear-carrier and the hearts and necks of two hammer-carriers.

In the process, he was stabbed and cut, suffering considerable damage.

The difference between five and three was significant. The tension that had been maintained with five people was broken when there were three.

“…To have such great martial prowess as a human.”

“What kind of bastards are you, backstabbing humans like that and cutting them a one-way ticket to Valhalla [Norse hall of slain warriors]…….”

Yuseongwoo, who spat out those words, even burst into laughter.

The air escaped from his lungs, creating a silly laugh.

“I don’t know how long it’s been since I laughed like this.”

He didn’t even know why he was laughing.

Yuseongwoo himself didn’t think he was in his right mind.

He pieced together his tattered body with Aura and took a step.

Until now, it was Aura.

From now on, it is divinity.

A lifetime filled with conviction was drawn long horizontally, and the hammer Valkyrie, Mangkyri, stood in front of it.

However, the golden weapon split like tofu the moment it touched his lifetime.

The Valkyrie dropped the handle when her weapon split and clenched her fist.

She rushed in, showing the best move she could make from her position.

However, Yuseongwoo stabbed his sword into the outstretched fist.

It seemed like a spark flashed from the Valkyrie’s fist for a moment, but soon it was pierced, and the sword dug in deeply.

Yuseongwoo tried to pull out the sword right away, but the Valkyrie grabbed the sword with her other arm and wouldn’t let go.

Other Valkyries popped out on either side of her and swung their weapons.

The sword and spear stretched out at a rapid speed, aiming for his head and vitals.

“You morons.”

Yuseongwoo let go of his lifetime without hesitation.

Then, he immediately summoned another world and deflected the weapons that struck from both sides.

You’ve seen me handle multiple weapons so far, so what good does it do to make it impossible to use just one?

The summoned other world collided with the Valkyries’ weapons, creating sparks.

When the attack was blocked, the Valkyrie in front showed her toughness and swung the fist with the sword stuck in it.

Yuseongwoo didn’t bother to avoid the fist. He just lifted one foot and pushed the end of his lifetime’s handle further inside.

As the sword went further in, past her arm and into her shoulder, she flapped her wings as if in pain.

Not even screaming in the meantime was an amazing feat of mental strength, even for a Jotun [a race of giants in Norse mythology] or a god.

“You’re tough. Really.”

But toughness alone cannot survive.

Mangkyri took a step back, so he charged forward three steps.

Then, he grabbed two other worlds in reverse and shoved them into the neck area, between the gaps in the armor.

At the same time as he pulled out the swords, a fountain of blood spurted out from inside the helmet.

Yuseongwoo, covered in the Valkyrie’s blood, got off her body and looked at the remaining two.

As the Valkyrie’s heavy body fell, Yuseongwoo sent the other worlds back and grabbed his lifetime again.

Then, Geomkiri looked at Changkiri and said.

“…Go back. Go back and tell Odin [the Allfather in Norse mythology] the situation.”

“…Yes.”

Changkiri flapped her wings without saying a word and soared into the air.

Yuseongwoo didn’t bother chasing her. Whether he caught and killed that bastard or sent him away, it wouldn’t change much.

Geomkiri, who was left alone, cut off all the seams of her armor with her sword, threw off the armor, and even cut off the wings behind her back.

Now wearing only a light cloth, she grabbed her sword with both hands and took a long breath.

“Hoo.”

“From now on, I will go all out. Human.”

“Yeah, that’s not bad either…….”

Until now, you’ve been beating me up in a one-sided fight, and now you’re pretending to be noble.

Still, Yuseongwoo grabbed his lifetime with both hands and accepted it because this was more fun.

The two took off almost simultaneously.

The match against the Valkyrie without a companion was decided in an instant.

Geomkiri lightened her weight and believed that she could catch up with Yuseongwoo at her speed.

At least she was planning to exchange a few blows and gather as much information as possible.

Yuseongwoo’s sword accelerated even more than before.

A momentary flash that was not even visible.

Everything was over when the red light flickered in front of her eyes.

“…I acknowledge your victory.”

“It was a little fun.”

“However… this will not be the end. You have incurred the wrath of the gods…….”

The Valkyrie could not finish her last words and fell.

I wasn’t very curious.

I’ve heard these words so many times that I knew what would follow.

Yuseongwoo took a long breath and checked his condition.

He wasn’t okay.

The places that were cut here and there were healing slowly because of the Valkyries’ magic, and he had consumed quite a lot of Aura.

‘Those bastards must have come to kill Hraesvelgr.’

The murderous intent felt from those guys.

It was directed at Hraesvelgr. They must have been thinking of killing Hraesvelgr and then killing all of them.

They were sharp warriors, confident that five of them could handle one Hraesvelgr.

Yuseongwoo spat out the blood that had pooled in his mouth and looked down.

A very interesting thing was happening while he was away.

Hraesvelgr, who had been slammed into the ground, was burning everything he had to create a storm.

But that seemed to be coming to an end soon.

The one called the Saint of Orleans, the patron saint of France, was leading the battle.

But…….

“I can’t give up the last hit.”

Yuseongwoo, who muttered, put strength into his legs and jumped off the cliff.

Then, he sent his lifetime back and took out the fourth sword, Heuksa.

The Heuksa, which he had taken out after a long time, was docile.

Whether it was because it had eaten an ancient divinity in a scenic spot and had a problem… or because it was full, he couldn’t tell.

Heuksa lent its power according to Yuseongwoo’s will.

The hair that had been dyed red turned black again.

Instead, the whites of his eyes turned black, and only red pupils remained.

He put his body in the wind.

As he pulled Heuksa towards him and injected Aura, the sword-red Aura became a huge sword.

The huge sword, which was enough to pierce through Hraesvelgr’s head at once, was held in his hand.

He, who held the Heuksa Greatsword that had dropped the heads of hundreds of large monsters, now saw Hraesvelgr, who was bowing his head due to the lightning that Baek Woo-hyun had just dropped.

The place he was aiming for was the very center of the guy’s head.

There were a lot of wounds…….

It wouldn’t be that difficult to pierce.

“Everyone get out of the way.”

As he muttered quietly, those who were attached to Hraesvelgr flinched and looked up at the sky, then began to scatter in panic.

It was only natural since a black meteor was falling from the sky, but only Hraesvelgr couldn’t figure out why the humans were retreating.

He was so out of his mind that he didn’t even know that Yuseongwoo was approaching from above.

And soon, the end of the black sword was embedded in the back of Hraesvelgr’s head.

The sound of something getting caught for a moment, Kak, was only temporary.

The Heuksa, which had eaten a lot of ancient divinity, suddenly cried out loudly and began to devour the guy’s skull.

The huge black sword pierced through his head and soon pierced through it.

Yuseongwoo, who had completed the Hraesvelgr head skewer, let go of the handle and took a long breath, recalling the promise of the giant.
