Swordmaster Wants to Live in Peace 347

For Peace (3)

Veronica found her own appearance strangely amusing.

To become stronger, yet mimicking the very being she had slain.

But she had no time to dwell on such thoughts. Humans had always been this way.

Swinging swords to grow stronger, imitating the forms of nature to create swordsmanship.

Acknowledging their shortcomings and forging all sorts of things into the form of swordsmanship to fill those gaps.

This time, Veronica was forging it into a method of handling her aura.

Veronica Style Enhancement

Aura Dragon Armor

Veronica, clad in aura mimicking the form of a dragon, soared into the sky.

Rising even higher than Adoras, she looked down and tightened her grip on her sword.

“Here I goooooooo!”

With a great shout, she began to descend.

Adoras sensed her and shot out hands and beams of light.

Veronica, plummeting down, flapped her wings of aura, adjusting her direction and speed.

Spinning and dodging hands and beams, she increased her speed even further.

A streak of violet light tore through the sky, colliding with Adoras.

The upper part of Adoras shattered, scattering a large amount of blood and flesh across the earth.

Enraged, the monster flailed its limbs, shaking the ground.

Veronica soared back into the sky, twirling her sword and gripping it again.

Several beams of light shot out by Adoras grazed past her.

She felt the intense heat, but perhaps due to the distance, Adoras’s beams could not penetrate her aura.

“Here I go again!”

She descended once more.

Faster than before, stronger than before.

The intense aura coursed through her entire body, increasing the size of the form enveloping her.

Huge horns and wings.

The dragon’s tail swung.

Veronica, plummeting down, was no different from a dragon.

The violet dragon, unlike any other, reached Adoras and cleaved its body in two.

A shockwave shook the heavens and the earth.

Soil, blood, and chunks of flesh soared.

As Veronica emerged from the dust, Adoras’s form, split in half from the top, was revealed.

“Persistent!”

However, Adoras’s split body quickly rejoined.

As if unaffected by the attack, it began to advance again.

But it was not without damage. Its size had decreased by the amount of blood and flesh it had lost.

-Kill, kill, I’ll kill you!

“Such a great reaction!”

Veronica kicked off the ground and shot forward, drawing dozens of straight lines in the air.

Once again, Adoras’s limbs were severed and scattered on the ground.

This time, Veronica did not give it time to recover, continuing her assault.

Standing before Adoras, she pushed back the approaching hands and beams with her aura alone, then stomped her right foot down hard.

Then, the intense flow of aura surging from within her body enlarged her wings, emitting heat like a jet engine.

“Kuaaaaaaaaah!”

A roar like that of a dragon.

At that moment, the aura was concentrated on the sword and released simultaneously with the swing.

Dragon Talon Outburst

Veronica’s sword was swung from below, as if scooping up the ground.

The dragon’s claw, tearing through the earth and sky, revealed itself to the world.

Tearing through space, it raged.

Three streaks of sword energy made of violet aura tore through Adoras’s torso.

Veronica pulled the sword she had thrust out back towards her, gathering aura once more.

Violet aura revolved around the greatsword, creating a vortex.

The ultimate technique unfolded with the fifth sword, often shown by meteor showers [a powerful, wide-ranging attack].

She imitated it, creating her own new swordsmanship.

Dragon Fang Destroys Monsters

As she extended her sword, the suppressed vortex of aura was released at once, piercing through Adoras.

With a series of techniques unleashed in rapid succession, Adoras’s body was scattered into hundreds of pieces.

Amidst the scene of the monster’s flesh falling like rain, Veronica let out a roar.

Her roar echoed through the heavens and the earth.

It was not a simple cry of victory, but a cry from the soul.

The monster in the past had been killed by Meteor Shower, and now it was once again slaughtered by Veronica’s hand.

“I won!”

***

The four, who had been watching the battle between Adoras and Veronica from a short distance, piled up a mountain of monster corpses.

As Adoras revealed itself outside the cave, monsters, thrown into chaos by fear, swarmed them.

The four frantically slashed at the onrushing monsters.

Beyond the wave of monsters, Veronica and Adoras were engaged in a fierce battle.

Since Meteor Shower was nowhere to be seen, they had to overcome this difficulty on their own.

The difficulty was not only for Veronica. The four also had to break through the wall in front of them.

“More are coming!”

Baek Woo-hyun shouted, covering his entire body in lightning. The summoned lightning raced along his body, sparking in all directions.

As he kicked off the ground, traces of lightning were etched into the earth.

He rapidly changed direction from left to right, beheading the monsters and burning them.

Hong Seo-hwa followed behind him. Covered in flames, she dashed behind Baek Woo-hyun, swinging her sword.

The flames scattered in all directions, burning the still-living monsters and tearing through the battlefield.

“Now!”

At Hong Seo-hwa’s shout, the two waiting in the rear moved.

Yoo Ji-woo’s magic spread in all directions, creating a barrier to protect the two who had gone ahead, and at the same time, Choi Ah-yeon’s shadow stretched out, extending blades from within the shadows of the monsters.

The extended blades pierced through the bodies of the monsters, killing them, and Hong Seo-hwa’s flames burned the corpses so as not to hinder movement.

Lightning, flames, magic, and shadows were mixed in one space, turning everything upside down.

The monsters’ rush continued. Even if they were knocked down, they popped out from somewhere in the highlands.

The number of monsters they had knocked down exceeded a hundred, and soon approached five hundred, reaching their limit.

“Kuh…! Mana!”

“I’m almost out too!”

Hong Seo-hwa and Baek Woo-hyun, who were primarily filtering out the monsters at the front line, ran out of mana, reducing their firepower.

As the filter at the front weakened, the consumption of Yoo Ji-woo and Choi Ah-yeon, who were in charge of the rear, naturally increased.

The mana of Yoo Ji-woo and Choi Ah-yeon, who had been steadfastly holding out in the rear, was also running low.

And at the critical moment when the formation was about to collapse, a sharp sword energy flew from behind them, splitting the monsters rushing from the front.

Turning around, they saw several people running from the other side, wielding swords amidst the dust.

It was the expedition’s reinforcements.

“You’ve held out well so far!”

At the head of the reinforcements was the middle-aged man who had made them spar.

As befitting his size, he wielded a huge greatsword, slicing through the monsters as he approached.

Behind him were several swordsmen.

They had sensed Adoras’s energy and rushed over in one go.

The expedition’s swordsmen passed them and faced the monster horde, giving the four a chance to catch their breath.

“Kuh, is that Adoras! We’ll deal with the monsters and join the fight!”

At the man’s command, the swordsmen nodded and quickly dealt with the monsters.

They were even faster than the four.

Since they were in the business of hunting monsters, it wasn’t long before the many monsters were all lying around as chunks of meat.

“A, amazing.”

Hong Seo-hwa muttered involuntarily. Their combat method was simple and crude, but nothing was as effective as that.

The man who had dealt with the monsters was about to head straight to Adoras, but.

“…It seems like there’s no need to join the fight.”

The scene unfolding before their eyes was absurd.

Adoras was a servant of the Blood God Bathus and boasted an enormous size.

Its size surpassed that of a decent mountain. And since it devoured anything, one country would disappear quickly the moment it was summoned.

The Blood God Church had summoned such a monster. To devour the continent.

Only a handful of people on the continent could face such a monster alone. No, did anyone exist who could face it?

Adoras’s massive body, which was easily visible from afar, was split.

It was clearly the trace of a sword.

The trajectory of a beautiful sword strike created by human power.

The following thrust of the extreme point shattered Adoras.

It was a blow that shattered a mountain. It was a scene that was hard to believe was created by a single swordmaster.

Following that, a voice echoed.

Those who heard the roar trembled. It was a roar like that of a dragon.

“To think she would defeat Adoras alone…”

Veronica strode towards them from afar.

Perhaps it was difficult to defeat Adoras without injury, she was covered in wounds here and there, but she looked at those waiting for her and smiled.

Raising one hand, she clenched her fist tightly.

“I won! Let’s go back!”

But people were looking at the sword in her hand rather than her.

The greatsword borrowed from Griff was broken in half.

The greatsword, unable to withstand her power, had shattered, leaving only half of it.

No, the fact that half of it remained showed how good the sword was.

If it were a normal sword, it would have disappeared without leaving even the handle.

Veronica, looking down at her hand, broke out in a cold sweat, then smiled brightly again.

“I, it’s okay! It’s still a usable sword even with only half of it!”

That couldn’t be.

***

Veronica, who had returned to the camp, went straight to Griff to apologize.

“Broke your sword. Sorry!”

Griff hugged the broken sword in his arms and shed tears.

His cherished sword had returned in such a miserable state. It was the same reaction as a parent seeing their son, who had left for the military, return as a paraplegic.

However, the kind-hearted Griff couldn’t say harsh words.

He just shed tears…

“I, it’s okay. Sob… You said you defeated Adoras with this sword, so, i, it’s okay. Really…”

“Yes, you said it was okay?!”

Veronica felt a little guilty, but it wasn’t reality anyway.

Griff’s sword in the past hadn’t broken.

“Ollett, the captain is calling for you.”

Just as she was apologizing to Griff, an expedition member came to pick up Veronica.

Veronica apologized to Griff again and headed to the tent where the expedition leader, Meteor Shower, was.

As she entered, Meteor Shower, with a slightly dark expression, looked at her and said.

“I heard you defeated the Blood God Church’s Adoras. You’ve worked hard.”

“Wuahaha. I’m a bit much. Isn’t this originally the captain’s job?”
