Retired Hero Wants To Sleep

Mission No.2 Seal Tower (16)

The distance between Schheim and Ewald narrowed in an instant. Ewald’s body, which had completed three leaps as if bouncing off the ground, had already soared into the air and was laid almost parallel to the ground.

His sword, which reached near his waist, emitted a ghastly flash and emitted a slight metallic sound as it rubbed against the air.

Ewald, twisting in the air, fell toward the ground.

And the sword light flashed.

Quaang!

The ground shook. A single swing of his sword turned the ground upside down, but Ewald shifted the sword force as soon as he set foot on the ground.

It is a sword that was not taken out even when fighting Cerberus in the monastery. But, holding his sword in his left hand, Ewald flexibly slid his sword.

In an instant, five sword lights shone. The stabs, each filled with life, terrifyingly flew towards the opponent, but a sharp metallic sound disrupted all of Ewald’s attacks.

It was only then that Ewald was able to see his opponent mixing swords with him.

“Hoo?”

Ewald exclaimed in a sincere voice.

At a cursory glance, the female swordsman, who appeared to be 180 cm tall, backed away in shock and was holding a huge sword. It’s a sword that’s as long as a woman’s height, so is it a Zweihänder?

The female swordsman, who tied her long ebony hair in a tight knot, kicked the bow that was lying at her feet with her foot. Then she took her right foot back, measuring her distance from Ewald.

Ewald was genuinely in admiration. It is also great that he blocked his sword so easily, but judging from the fact that he is taking a counterattack posture with no sign of backing down, he is quite a skilled young lady in a fight.

Glancing at Schheim behind his opponent’s back, Ewald moved his sword back into his right hand.

With his free left hand, Balt grabbed several strands of mana rushing towards Schheim. No matter how interesting the fight with this female swordsman is, the top priority is that Schheim.

However, the opponent who saw Ewald’s movements grabbed the huge Zweihender with one right hand. Moving her lowered left arm to her side, she slammed her knife hard into the floor with a bang.

At that moment, Ewald confirmed that several strands of mana were gathering in the female swordsman’s right hand.

He thought he was wrong, but he was sure. That is the obvious flow of mana. Reversing the mana rushing toward Schheim, several strands of mana were entangled in the opponent.

An opponent who knows how to handle mana. Ewald condensed the mana gathered in her hand into her fingertips and stretched out her arm.

“Þungur vindur!”

The mana that rotated Ewald’s hand once was converted into fierce wind. The whirlwind that left Ewald a tremendous recoil was fired at Ewald’s opponent.

As soon as his magic left his fingertips, Ewald put out his foot to his left. He didn’t increase his speed, so he intended to intercept those who came back to avoid it.

However, the opponent, who expected to avoid Ebalt’s attack, put his right foot forward and cut the huge sword upward.

Chow!

Mana collided. The wind stopped her progress and spun fiercely in place, but she spun once in place while holding onto the sword rising above her, and slashed her sword down with terrifying force.

Hwaak-

The wind blew away leaving a hollow sound. Anticipating that the opponent would move, Balt stopped his moving body and stared at the female swordsman with an uneasy expression.

‘Did you cut it?’

Admiring the fact that she used her mana as an anti-magic interceptor, Ebalt looked at the female swordsman and Shuheim alternately.

“It’s fun, but…”

If you fight properly, you can take down an opponent, but right now Ebalt is too annoying because of the mana that is gathering towards Schheim.

“Hey, lady!”

Instead of answering, the female prosecutor raised her sword. Even though it was a huge knife, Ewald was a little dumbfounded at the fact that he seemed to be playing with it very simply. But now that didn’t matter.

Schheim is stepped on in the snow.

“Can you give me three minutes? I was wondering if we could fight again in three minutes!”

There was no answer. The tall female swordsman grasped Schheim’s location and slowly moved to her side. It didn’t come close to Ewald, but the purpose of that action was clear.

With her back to Schheim, she was blocking Ewald’s path.

“How about it end well?”

“It’s not possible.”

Confirming it in her blunt voice, she raised her sword again with one hand and placed it over her shoulder. The knife was so heavy that you could feel the weight of her under her chin, but seeing her handle it like her limbs, her Ewald’s impression was distorted.

It was not an opponent that could be easily overcome.

‘Is there anything special?’

Ewald bent his knees. At that moment, Ewald, who had leaped off the ground, drew a knife diagonally. The wind pressure mixed with mana left the sword and flew towards the opponent with sharp momentum.

However, the opponent also put strength into the hand holding the sword. Then, the energy that Ebalt had sent was severely beaten. Ebalt’s attack shattered with a loud bang, but Ebalt, who quickly caught up with him, swung his sword with a force that was incomparable to that of the moment before.

Jjoong!

Ewald’s attack was blocked. Before the pain in his sore wrist had subsided, his opponent drew back his sword, raised it with a speed that could hardly be called Zweihender, and slashed it down terribly.

Kwagak!

Ewald’s knee, which received the opponent’s knife, was under load. It’s a properly weighted attack. However, it was an attack that was more concerned about its speed than its destructive power.

The two swords that were touching vibrated softly. Ewald’s sword had already lost a couple of teeth. His weapon durability was definitely pushed back. Ewald thrusts up his sword and kicks his opponent in the stomach.

There was a heavy popping sound, but the opponent who bounced back regained his balance in exactly three steps and returned to the ready position.

‘Is it strong?’

However, this time, the opponent did not move as he only held his posture. Rather, it was she who glanced at Schheim behind her back and moved back between Ewald and Schheim.

She has a mindset that she will never let her go to Schheim.

However, Ewald’s target is Schheim.

Kugoong!

A strong vibration erupted from Schheim. At the same time, Schheim’s power generator began to rotate slowly.

Just before starting

I couldn’t wait any longer. Ewald started running without looking. At that moment, the opponent raised his sword and took a defensive stance, but Balt’s target wasn’t that female swordsman anyway. Ewald, who quickly closed the distance with the opponent, kicked the ground strongly.

“Fljuga!”

The body becomes lighter. Flying magic mixed with tremendous leaping power blew Ebalt into the air. The opponent, who hastily followed Ebalt with his eyes, who suddenly jumped out in front of his eyes, had already captured Ebalt, who was shooting towards Schheim over his head.

The female prosecutor turned around. At the same time, he pulled the knife in his right hand behind his shoulder.

‘No way.’

After finishing her help in just two steps, she threw the ignorantly large knife.

After leaving her hand, Zweihender spun with terrifying momentum and flew towards Ewald. I threw so hard that I could feel the microvessels in her fingertips burst under her pressure.

Shoot aaang!

Ewald got goosebumps at the knife cutting through space. It is the trajectory that accurately calculated Ewald’s movement. Deciding that magic could not easily twist his body, Ewald twisted his body and grabbed his sword. If you get hit with a knife like that, it’s neatly cut in two.

“Þungur vindur!”

The hastily created wind magic left Ebalt’s hand and attacked the sword flying toward him. But with a click, the magic broke in two. Could it be that he even loaded it with mana and threw it? Just before the rapidly flying sword touched his shoulder, Ebalt swung his sword.

Jjoong!

Ewald’s posture was completely disturbed. At the same time, the flight magic summoned by Ewald was destroyed. Losing his momentum in an instant, Ebalt plummeted toward the ground in a dangerous position.

Bang!

“Kuk.”

From noble mtl dot com

Equipped with a hasty stance, Ewald closed his teeth and grasped his opponent’s position. Sure enough, she was running toward Ewald at full speed.

She frowned at the thought of some swordsman tossing her knife and leaping at her opponent with her bare hands, but Ewald heard a strange noise coming from above her head and quickly looked away.

Her sword, falling out of the air, was returning towards her in a straight line.

“… Crazy.”

Could it be that mana is converted into physical force? Ewald gave an incredulous glance at the female swordsman who didn’t even look like a human, but it was judged that it was possible to approach Schheim at this distance.

Ewald turned his body towards Schheim.

Iron spatula!

A heavy metallic sound came from behind. Did you retrieve her knife? However, I calculated that if I were to throw a knife over there, I would be able to dodge it since I was not in a state of flying in the air.

At best, we have come between the opponent and Schheim, so we have to achieve our goal first.

Ewald ran towards Schheim like a shotgun.

A blue light was rotating fiercely in Schheim’s power generator. I don’t know what kind of guy it is, but he is moving Schheim. Ewald found it so annoying.

Countless thoughts ran through Ebalt’s head, but he shook his head once and strained his legs.

The black-haired female swordsman furiously chased Ebalt while waving her ponytail. But the distance widens.

She grabbed the zweihender held in her right hand once with a strong grip, but decided that the opponent was likely to dodge unless it was mid-air, and moved the sword to her left hand.

Simultaneously moving her hand behind her waist, she grabbed the handle of her dagger.

And three daggers cut through the air.

Ewald instinctively turned to the living feeling behind her back. As he reflexively swung the sword, a heavy feeling was transmitted to his fingertips twice.

At the same time, a sound like broken metal rang out. However, a dagger that escaped Ewald’s defense due to time lag flew into Ewald’s back.

Quack.

Didn’t scream But a burning pain dug into Ewald’s right shoulder. He had been stabbed several times and was Von Ebalt, but this terrible pain could hardly be called the pain of being stabbed with a dagger. Ewald’s body collapsed rapidly.

Ewald grabbed the handle of the dagger stuck in his shoulder. If you don’t remove it before you fall, the wound will open and get worse as you roll over. He hated seeing the daggers stick out.

Ewald quickly drew his dagger from the wound and threw it away. At the same time, Ewald’s left shoulder touched the floor.

Balt’s body tumbled while grinding the floor at the same speed as he was running. Since he was running at a tremendous speed, Ewald’s body, which had once bounced into the air, fell back to the ground.

But as he grabbed the dagger in his left hand, Balt swung his left arm in line with the third rotation. He was facing the female swordsman following behind him. Her dagger, with her rotational power plus her Ebalt’s strength, flew towards her in a straight line.

The dagger with terrifying speed pierced her right thigh.

Quack!

She didn’t scream at her. But she suddenly lost her balance. She gave her strength to her legs, but her muscles, which had already been cut off, couldn’t easily exert themselves. She was swept hard to the floor.

It’s a pain. Ewald’s vision was overturned and he rolled on the ground several more times.

The wounds inflicted by arrows on the left side and daggers on the right caused tremendous pain, but Ewald stood up as if he didn’t know anything and turned to Schheim, where the distance was less than 10 meters.

I didn’t want to damage that beautiful machine, but I had to get inside Schheim first. Ebalt wrapped mana around his fist with a strong heart.

“Eldingar spjóti!”

Chew!

A window of light was created behind Ewald’s back. As if waiting for Ebalt’s command, the fiercely spinning spear of light gave off a terrifying aura.

And at that moment, an enormous amount of light emitted from Schheim swallowed Ewald.
