Swordmaster Wants to Live Peacefully – 241

Tower Lord Meeting (7)

Having finished warning Sharon and Nagi, Yoo Seong-woo turned to look back and forth between Maximum and Medium.

These clowns with their disgusting faces were still staring at Yoo Seong-woo with bewildered expressions.

“I killed Minimum. You pathetic clown bastards. The show isn’t even fun, so all I can think about is ending it soon…”

As if asking what they thought, Maximum’s lips curved into an arc.

“Yes, that’s for the best. If we kill you here, who have repeatedly defied his will… he will be pleased!”

“Are you talking about the Ascendancy Leader? Just hearing about him makes me think he’s a disgustingly idle fellow. He gathers strange guys to create a strange religion, and then he only does strange things…”

The existence of the Ascendancy Leader became even more intriguing.

From Yoo Seong-woo’s perspective, not all those belonging to the Ascendancy Church were from Earth.

Like the Dark Annihilation Dragon he saw in the Abyss and the Absolute Peak.

The orcs who came to kill him were the same.

‘Maybe he’s traveling through different dimensions collecting them.’

What kind of perverted taste is that…

“Do not insult him! If you slander him with such words again…”

“Ascendancy Leader, you son of a bitch, moron, super idiot, pervert. There, I said it. So, what can you do?”

“I will kill you!”

The daggers that sprang from Maximum’s hands danced splendidly.

The daggers, drawing afterimages as they cut through the air, slashed at Yoo Seong-woo’s body, and Maximum was certain he had killed him.

However, Yoo Seong-woo didn’t shed a single drop of blood and stood there looking at Maximum with a ‘what did you do?’ expression.

The moment Maximum felt was an indescribable terror.

A type of emotion he had never felt before.

“Your swordsmanship is also garbage. It should be like this…”

The moment Ilseong in Yoo Seong-woo’s hand flashed, Maximum’s hands were cut off and fell to the floor.

A speed that eyes could never follow. Maximum stared blankly at his fallen hands before raising his head.

“As expected, you will be too great an obstacle to his plans. You must die here.”

“Who said I would die?”

“I’ll make you beg for death!”

Maximum shouted and scattered blood by waving his severed arms, then created some distance.

And at the same time, new arms sprouted from the cross-section of his arms.

“Medium! We will deploy a joint technique! And you’re listening, right! You guys will have to work hard from now on too! To kill this monster!”

“You guys…”

Is it time for the guys who were waiting to pop out?

It was worth provoking Maximum on purpose.

Maximum must be talking to the Ascendancy Church’s magicians hiding in this place.

As Yoo Seong-woo glanced at the audience seats, Maximum threw dozens of daggers at him.

Yoo Seong-woo, who deflected the rapidly flying daggers without even looking, said.

“Yes, do everything you can. Only when you realize that none of them work…”

You’ll be able to feel what true despair is.

Yoo Seong-woo spun Ilseong around and gathered his aura.

The intense aura that began to bloom from him swirled like red steam, revealing his murderous intent.

“Medium─!!”

Maximum shouted and reached out to Medium.

Medium held out his chest towards Maximum, and Maximum pierced Medium’s chest with his hand.

Maximum pulled out a throbbing heart from Medium’s chest.

It wasn’t a normal human heart. It was a heart made by piecing together all sorts of toys.

Maximum shoved it into his own chest and laughed.

-Kehehehehehe─!!

“This magic trick is better than the last one.”

Stabbing a person in a box is obviously much more fun than transplanting someone else’s heart into yourself.

Anyway.

Yoo Seong-woo stared at Maximum, who was letting out a bizarre laugh, and observed the changes.

Muscle expansion and blood flow speed.

Changes were occurring all over his body, and accordingly, his magic power also increased many times over.

He narrowed his eyes at the sight, which was closer to a fusion than a joint technique.

And soon after, the wildly fluctuating magic power stabilized, and Maximum’s appearance changed to a mix of Medium and himself.

Yoo Seong-woo, who roughly understood what was going on from that appearance, said.

“…Hmm, that’s quite impressive. Are Medium and Minimum your clones? I’ve seen it before. You divide your consciousness into three parts, create similar bodies, and create tangible clones.”

“Ku, kuhahaha, you recognize it. Are you well-versed in magic as well as swordsmanship? Our Swordmaster.”

“That time is so memorable.”

Maximum, Medium, Minimum.

They appear to be three people, but in reality, they are one.

Maximum divided his personality through his abilities and magic, formed clones, and operated them.

Minimum died, but he absorbed the remaining Medium to increase the power of his main body.

“But what a pity. Minimum died.”

If Minimum had been alive and absorbed into Maximum, he would have recovered his full strength instead of two-thirds.

Of course, it wouldn’t have been impossible to deal with even then.

Yoo Seong-woo said it just in case the guy was going to have some kind of mental victory.

“I hope you don’t say that it’s not your full strength and that you can’t admit defeat.”

“How could that be! You will die here!”

“You keep talking nonsense about me dying. It’s proof of your madness.”

From the perspective of those watching below the stage, both Maximum and Yoo Seong-woo were equally crazy.

While Yoo Seong-woo was confronting Maximum, the people in the audience seats were also moving busily.

Bertrand examined the condition of the rescued people and formed hand seals to create a path to return to Earth.

Sungcheon-gyeon also separated the audience seats and the stage with magic and opened the way with Bertrand.

“Where are you all trying to go─!!”

Maximum shouted and stomped his feet, and the walls of the place they were in collapsed like a box opening on all sides.

And what was revealed was not a virtual dimension, but Maximum’s world.

The moment his unique world, which he had been developing since the Tower Lord meeting, was revealed.

“…….”

“…What is this.”

The scenery was so bizarre that the people who looked around were breathless.

Maximum’s world consisted of three layers.

The circular worlds in the shape of donuts were stacked in layers.

The place where people were standing was the third layer at the top.

The world revealed based on Maximum’s inner self was close to shocking.

In the sky, crows with multiple eyes flew around, and giant clowns walked around, thumping.

Lined up on the broken sidewalks were rotten corpses.

The existence itself, which revealed an inner self that was neither understood nor wanted, was a threat.

“Is this how a multiple personality disorder’s unique world is formed?”

When he lowered his head and looked down, a familiar world came into view on the lowest floor.

Minimum’s unique world.

The bizarre amusement park was right there.

Then the middle layer must be Medium’s unique world.

Yoo Seong-woo raised his head and looked at Maximum.

He showed a sign that he had shown something he didn’t want to show.

“What do you dislike so much?”

When Yoo Seong-woo asked, Medium twisted his lips and clapped his hands.

“Well, well, the start of a new show! This show will be the last. It’s such a pity.”

“This show better be fun.”

Yoo Seong-woo smirked and provoked him again, and Maximum responded by clapping his hands.

Then, large clown hands appeared on both sides of him in the air and clapped as if to burst him.

Clap─!!

The huge palms met and made a loud noise.

Maximum was certain that he had crushed Yoo Seong-woo, but he frowned at the sight that unfolded before his eyes.

There was Yoo Seong-woo, squatting on top of the meeting hands and looking down.

In such a relaxed manner.

“What, is there more?”

***

“This way! This way!”

Sungcheon-gyeon was leading the people. The Tower Lords quickly realized what they had to do.

Among them, Sungcheon-gyeon faithfully did what he had to do.

Finding a way to escape Maximum’s world.

Among the Tower Lords, only Bertrand and Sungcheon-gyeon could handle space magic.

Bertrand was busy moving the rescued people with his magic, so Sungcheon-gyeon had to find a way to escape Maximum’s unique world.

Scattering magic power in all directions to explore a safe path and find a place where the boundaries of the unique world were loose enough to break through.

The other Tower Lords were in charge of blocking external threats.

“These crazy clown bastards!”

“Get out of here!”

The Tower Lords and their companions each unleashed their magic and abilities to defeat the giant clowns approaching from all directions.

Moreover, sometimes the corpses lying on the street would get up and approach, so they couldn’t let their guard down.

“What level do you have to reach to build such a barrier…!”

“No way, no way! This has gone beyond the scope of magic!”

The Tower Lords each said a word and moved their feet.

Others nodded silently as if agreeing with him.

In the meantime, Sharon turned her head and looked at Yoo Seong-woo, who was confronting Maximum.

“…But why is that man so relaxed?”

“You were so eager to dispose of him until just now, and now you’re curious about that.”

At Medea’s words, Sharon bit her teeth tightly.

But curiosity is a virtue of a magician.

Besides, if it weren’t for Yoo Seong-woo, they probably wouldn’t have been able to escape the stage and would have died.

“…I’m curious.”

“It’s a simple fact. It’s possible because that man is strong enough to overwhelm the clown.”

“Against that clown who builds such a terrible barrier in a virtual dimension?”

“Um, doesn’t America have mythology? That’s why countries with short histories are like this…”

Sharon was momentarily speechless at Medea’s fact bombing.

Was the Wind Tower Lord this kind of person?

Medea laughed as if it was a joke and continued.

“He was officially recognized as a minor god through the Holy See’s declaration of the gods. He has been recognized for his achievements so far and has reached the realm of a demigod.”

“That blood-crazed man…?”

“Whether it’s a holy god or an evil god, a god is a god. It is certain that they are beings that humans cannot approach.”

What does it mean to ascend to the ranks of gods with a body that is not yet dead and with a human body?

It is difficult to accumulate divinity while alive.

Souls and living bodies have a structure that makes it difficult to accumulate divinity, so there are not many who have become gods while alive.

In most cases, their achievements are recognized and revered as gods after death.

“Among the living people on Earth, perhaps he is the strongest force? He is a manifested human god that people like you cannot approach.”

“…Are you saying that I was foolish? Wind Tower Lord.”

“Interpret it as you please.”

Medea smiled and spread a shield with magic power to block the clown’s attack.

Sharon bit her lip and glared in the direction where Yoo Seong-woo was.

Soon, she spat out blood from her mouth and collapsed to the floor.
