Chapter 87 – The Hero Started a Battle With the Bahamons.
The crescent-shaped sword strikes the air and begins to slice through the bones of the harpies and griffins.
The bone fragments that were cut off in an instant fell to the floor as if they had lost their power, and there was silence over the battlefield for a while.
“Well, that’s quite right. The brave man!”
The moment when a careless dwarf exclaimed at me like that.
I took advantage of that subtle moment and quickly started charging towards the Skeleton Knight.
The performance of the sword is beyond expectations.
Unlike Peril’s sword, which was destroyed in one stroke, the sword made by Catherine still retains its sharp brilliance.
Visor-.
I took advantage of the surprise attack and aimed at the Skull Knight’s head his, but he raised his sword and blocked my sword path beforehand.
“Well!”
As if the power contained in the sword was more than expected, a heavy sound flowed from the skeleton knight’s mouth.
However, I swung my sword again aiming to stop him with an expression that was not impressed by his admiration.
“Good swordsmanship. Are you a warrior?”
The Skeleton Knight, who blocked my sword once again, asked me that.
I nodded lightly at his question and continued to move my sword.
The swords collided several times in the air, but I was barely able to break through his defense his.
When I tried to use a big technique out of trouble, he quickly cut off the flow, so I was a little nervous.
‘It’s annoying, really.’
No, in fact, annoying was the sound of being really full.
The reason I was able to defeat the Skull Knight in the previous round was because of the immortality power given by the goddess.
But now, unlike then, I was pressing him without a single wound on my body, and the Skeleton Knight also couldn’t hide my embarrassment at my skills his.
“Where on earth did you learn the sword?”
“All over the place.”
I gave that answer to the curious Skeleton Knight and continued my swordsmanship again.
It was natural for him to be curious about my swordsmanship.
Even though he’s only Bahamon Znom’s faithful subordinate No. 1 now, he must have been a fairly famous knight in his lifetime.
I laughed inwardly as I saw the Skeleton Knight focusing on defense as if he were trying to find out about my sword.
I thought it was his idea to end the fight after getting used to my sword, but oh well.
“Hey, this. Does not make sense…”
Before long, a puzzled voice came out of the skeleton knight’s mouth.
Because my sword was mimicking his swordsmanship before I knew it.
On top of that, it included the swordsmanship he hadn’t used yet.
As someone who didn’t know that I had regressed, I couldn’t help but be embarrassed.
“Yes, you bastard. How do you know this swordsmanship?”
In fact, I had never learned proper swordsmanship from anyone.
That’s why, even if you ask where the source of my swordsmanship is, in fact, there is nothing I can answer.
In the first playthrough, he learned the basics of swordsmanship from Genoa, accidentally obtained the spirit left by the lightsaber, stole the mercenary empress’ quick steps, and studied the skeleton knight’s swordsmanship for a while.
In addition to that, numerous swordsmanships were mixed, and now he was confused about what swordsmanship was.
However, the memory of the body lasts longer than the original head.
I was feeling the old achievements coming back little by little as I mixed the sword with the skull knight.
‘Come to think of it, it’s been a long time since I’ve sweated properly.’
Come to think of it, I haven’t met a decent opponent since I returned.
Thanks to that, I was able to easily pass through all the battles, and although I tried my best, it was true that the tip of my sword was not as good as before.
Then I began to regain my former senses bit by bit through the fight with the Skeleton Knight.
He had just enough skills to make me sweat, and he was blocking my sword well enough to annoy me.
“Tell me. You bastard, how did you know that swordsmanship?”
“It’s our family’s swordsmanship.”
I looked roughly like that toward the skeleton knight who persistently asked me.
For a moment, I had the illusion that his pupils were shaking, but his eyes were just empty.
“Damn. Are you a descendant of the family?”
He quickly distanced himself from me and asked me that.
I thought the Skull Knight was misunderstanding, but he didn’t feel the need to correct it.
When I sneakily checked, it was because Karen was being pushed back little by little.
‘I need to finish it quickly.’
“… What nonsense are you talking about?”
“You bastard, are you from the Paras family?”
“…”
I started to match the rhythm of the skeleton knight’s question.
To be honest, I wanted to compete with him even more, but if the Bahamons came this way, I wouldn’t be able to eat or die.
As I remained silent without answering, I could see the Skeleton Knight panicking.
Realizing that the timing was right, I yelled back at him.
“The filthy demon king’s keeper is not a family that dares to name it.”
“Descendants. Back off I’m hurting you…”
“Sick! I’m not?”
I quickly thrust my sword at the Skeleton Knight, who slipped his sword back.
While he was talking, my body energy was injected into the sword, and white energy was rapidly flying towards his skull.
“This, such a coward!”
The Skeleton Knight quickly sprayed his sword and tried to block my sword attack, but it was a lightsaber technique.
That the specter of the Paras family, who had never heard of it anywhere, was not at the level of being able to block it.
Bang-.
His sword collided with the white energy, and he saw the Skeleton Knight bounce back.
Even so, it seemed that he escaped death immediately because he was a one-hit guy.
Using the treasure I stole from the Mercenary Empress, I quickly chased after him, and soon thrust my sword into his skull.
‘Done!’
According to my memory, there should have been Bahamons’ Life Vessel in it.
Bahamons did not trust anyone in the Demon King’s army, and he hid a life vessel that was no different from his own life in the head of his subordinate his.
However, I frowned at the feeling of emptiness I felt at the end of the sword.
There must have been a feeling that something was caught, but there was no feeling inside the skull knight’s head, as if it was empty.
“Kyaa!!”
In an instant, Karen’s screams were heard in the air, and then she was seen falling to her floor.
No matter how great Karen is, it seems that it was too much to deal with Bahamons by herself.
I let out a devastated laugh as I watched the Bahamons staring down at me with their robes burnt.
‘… I’m leaving like this?’
**
In the first place, Bahamons was not an opponent I could easily beat.
It’s basic not to die easily, and it’s not easy to deal with a lich who uses high-level magic without getting tired.
The reason I caught Bahamons in the first playthrough was because I accidentally got his Life Vessel.
Of course, since I was stronger than when I met him in the previous episode, I couldn’t think of losing unconditionally, but it was true that I was in trouble in many ways.
And the biggest problem was that I couldn’t immediately find out where the bastard’s life vessel was.
I thought that even if I tried to kill the Bahamons, it would be in vain because as long as the Vessel was intact, he would come back to life.
“Bloke…”
“Why don’t we settle for a tie?”
I asked Richie, who was staring at me with empty, empty eyes.
Of course, I didn’t ask because I thought that would be possible, and it was an expression that I didn’t want to deal with him that much.
“Baal was right. They said you might know the location of my life vessel.”
“… Baal?”
My eyes lit up as I watched Rich talk about high-quality information that I hadn’t even asked.
The fact that Baal informed Bahamons was that at least Baal knew that I was in the middle of the second playthrough.
Whether it was revealed by the demon king himself or what Baal found out.
The problem was that Baal was a tough guy to deal with even if he didn’t know that fact.
I looked at Bahamons with a bitter smile at the feeling that the level of difficulty had risen sharply.
“Therefore? Did he leave the life vessel behind? Then what if he aims at your vessel?”
The possibility didn’t seem very high, but I tried to stimulate Bahamons’ anxiety.
There’s no way I’ll kill my competent Demon King’s army officer unless Baal goes crazy, but it’s possible to control Bahamons using the Life Vessel.
“Nonsense, anyway, even Baal doesn’t know where I hide it.”
“Are you sure? Are you sure?”
I kept talking and turning around Bahamons.
It was because I was tired right away and needed to take a little time.
