9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 129

Episode 129

Episode 54. Herald of the Balaur (1)

Of course, the story that Zecca was loved by the blue dragon was a bit of an exaggeration. Kriesha feels sorry for Jeka, but does not love him as if she were her own offspring.

Besides, she was unable to leave Inzbikan. Nothing was discussed in advance with Kriesha.

Yuma was thinking of putting it off and taking care of it.

He wanted to kill Heize that much. I couldn’t stand to see such a disgusting person in such an honorable position as the Imperial Chancellor or Imperial Sword.

If the Blue Dragon directly stepped forward and punished the descendants of Pidgin Carta for the crime, he could have killed the imperial chancellor or whatever.

“Boy, can you be responsible for your words again this time?”

“I will prove it, Your Majesty.”

“I look forward to it. I will release Zecca right away.”

“Thank you, Your Majesty!”

After the trial, he was finally able to release his friend who had been imprisoned for two months. In the meantime, Yuma felt indebted to Zecca, so she was not at ease the whole time.

No matter how luxurious the inn was decorated, the dungeon was a dungeon. Like everyone else, Zecca, who had memories of being abused by Hayes, especially hated the dungeon.

After talking with the empress for some more time, Yuma left the audience room with Duran.

The Empress agreed with Yuma’s plan to use the Chrysa Ainu.

He didn’t ask for cheating on himself or kidnapping Zishka.

The act of treason this time was so serious that a commoner cheating on the empress

became a ‘trivial’ thing. The Empress hoped that Yuma would clean up the aftermath of this incident.

The eunuch Arantino was waiting for Yuma holding an Ascalon. Arantino approached Yuma as he left the real world.

“…Take the sword. How the hell did you know my name?”

“Somehow, I found out. eunuch Arantino. There will be a vacation soon, so come visit the top of Puang.”

Yuma took the Ascalon and went past Arantino. Arantino was scheduled to commit suicide within a month, but before that, he decided to visit the Puang merchant group.

“Good job! Disciple!”

As they made their way to the garden, Duran hugged Yuma excitedly. The disciple he loved not only saved Jishka’s life, but also came back with a plan to punish the traitors.

Duran was very worried about what to do if he had to hit Yuma with his own hands. It was because he could not disobey the wife’s orders.

And that wasn’t all. If Yuma had been killed by Hugo, Duran would have led the central army and marched to Matan even if the sky collapsed.

“Ooh, I’m going to go out. Give me some strength.”

It had been a long time since Duran had hugged someone so violently.

I was that happy. Now, all you have to do is wait for the ending in which the disciple punishes the fucking traitors.

“Ha ha ha! I knew you could do it!”

Duran’s loud laughter echoed through the imperial garden. However, no one dared to direct an eye gun at Duran.

“It is not over yet. Master. It is not too late to rejoice after killing Hayes and rebuilding Joachim.”

“yes! Winslting, that son of a bitch, I plan to beat him to death!”

“great. Master, by the way…

killing Heize is the problem.”

“What do you mean? It would be enough if the blue dragon you mentioned goes and defeats them!”

Even though he hadn’t seen him in a long time, Yuma still smiled heartily at his simple-minded teacher.

“Master. Kriesha Ainu-sama is not the first person to get involved in human affairs.”

“Ew? Then why did you say that to His Majesty? Won’t the blue dragon help you?”

“There is no time to go directly to Kriesha and ask for her help. How do I know if Heize has other arrangements while I go to Inzbikan?”

“Hmm…

“Me and Zecca must work together to kill Heize without Kriesha-sama’s help.”

Duran withdrew his bright smile and quickly turned into a sullen expression.

“My disciple. You’re strong enough… but it’s still too much for Heize.

Even if you join that bastard named Zecca.”

“I know.”

Imperial sword.

Whether Hayes was a bastard or an old stinking snake, it was clear that he was the second most powerful man in the Empire after Duran.

Hayes was the closest man to a grandmaster in the world. Rollmandi is the best spearman since Grand Master Changsin Sugar Rollmandi.

No matter how genius Yuma was, it was impossible to surpass him at the age of eighteen. Although not as much as Duran or Hugo, Hayes was also a name that often appeared when discussing the world’s strongest.

Duran let out a low sigh and shook his head.

“I thought the blue dragon would help you directly…

According to Yuma, Kriesha Ainu belonged to a dragon stronger than an ogre. He expected that such a dragon would be able to kill Haze.

“Master. I’m planning to go hit him in a month. He will still be waiting for Varys.”

“My disciple. Why do you keep risking your life? If you fight him head-on, you still have no chance of winning.”

“Are there any other practices that make you incredibly strong in a week like the blade-of-grass practice?”

It was talking about how to revive by drinking the blood of an ogre after spreading the aura until death. It was the training that Duran had given him right before the knight war for the occupation of the Yonir Plain.

Yuma has continued to grow ever since. By fighting and bumping into each other. However, there has been no explosive growth like that training.

“If there was such a thing, who would have to suffer to gain strength? Even that ignorant training was possible because you were blessed by an Auror. I wasn’t sure either. I was just lucky.”

“As expected.”

It was a natural answer. If there was another way, Duran had no reason to hide it from Yuma. Even if he didn’t have to use such an expedient, Yuma’s growth rate had already exceeded the universal category.

“Hmm… Then we need more helpers. How about if one more high-level sword master joins us?”

The person Yuma thought of was Marlon.

“40%! Hayes is my go-to guy anyway. Although there is a difference between me and me as much as heaven and earth.”

Haze is strong, but it seems to be strong.

Even so, Yuma was not to be intimidated. The opportunity to fight such a strong unmanned army was rare.

He didn’t even have to think about losing to him. Yuma’s heart was full of only the will to defeat him and beat him to death.

“Four halves. Then, if I urgently learn Sword Eye from my master from now on, will I be able to raise it to 5?”

Needless to say, the speed with which Yuma learned his skills. Yuma had a history of copying the Zach family’s decisive battle, ‘Cutting the Sky’, just by watching it a few times.

Sword Eye was on the lower side than ‘Cutting the Sky’ in terms of acquisition difficulty alone. However, Sword Eye was a skill that could be fully used only after transforming the constitution.

It was the characteristic of Sword Eye to temporarily raise the user’s potential and limit by one level by burning the blood and aura inside the body.

In order to use Sword Eye, it was necessary to have a body that did not damage blood vessels and internal organs even while blood and aura were burning.

This required long-term training to be able to control the heat inherent in the Aurors freely. There was a high risk of death if Sword Eye was used recklessly with an undeveloped body.

However, some ogre blood was already mixed in Yuma’s body.

Besides, the blood vessels and heart were not very different from those of Ows and Dragons. Thinking that far, Duran quietly nodded.

“Perhaps you can use it right away. I will pass it on and confirm it.”

Originally, I was going to pass it on when I became an adopted son.

“By the way, are you saying there are other high-level sword masters? Is it okay to hit the haze?”

“I have a friend named Marlon in the Worgs.”

Marlon was Master’s adopted son before I returned. Thanks to Master’s negligence, he was almost killed hundreds of times by the other nobles of the Zach family.

Yuma thought for a moment about Marlon Jacques before returning and continued.

“If me and Marlon Zecca work together for a 50% chance… we have a chance.

No, even if it’s 10%, I have to kill him. As the messenger of the Balaur.”

“A messenger of the Balaur?”

“yes. The messenger of the Balaur.”

Yuma responded with an evil laugh.

“Did you make a contract with that dragon named Krysa Ainu?”

“There is no specific contract.”

“By the way, what do you mean by a messenger of the Balaur? Is there such a thing? Please explain to me so I can understand.”

‘Herald of the Balaur’ was an expression Yuma had just coined. There was no human in the world who could carry out the dragon’s will instead. So, there was no human with the grandiose formula of being the herald of the Balaur.

In the first place, it was not an era where dragons and humans interacted as they did during the dragon and horse wars before the return.

But Yuma had Zecca, and Zecca had Sybelin.

A memento of Pi Jin Carta, the Half-Dragon Grandmaster of Ego.

If you hold up your shining cybeline and shout, ‘The messenger of the Balaur has come to punish the guilty!’, anyone will have no choice but to interpret Yuma and the others as the messenger of the Balaur.

If you add details by listing the history of the tragedy that grandmaster Pidgin Carta and Jeka went through.

Yuma’s greatest strength, as he judged himself, wasn’t his talent.

There was something else that was more valuable than his talent as a soldier, which Hugo evaluated as the quality of a military god.

In vain.

The empty bottom and thick skin that makes up plausible lies at any time.

That was his real strength. The life of a eunuch for 40 years was not so easy.

Yuma knew better than anyone how eagerly the public was waiting for a legendary story.

The herald of the Balaur punishes the corrupt nobles!

How could this be an event that would warm the hearts of the people? Whether it was 10% or 40%, the win rate didn’t matter. Without a doubt, the people would have been on Yuma’s side.

If it was judged that he could not defeat Jeong Heize, it would be enough to mobilize the Knights based on the public opinion of the people at that time. Of course, it didn’t seem like that would happen.

When fighting properly, Yuma had yet to lose to anyone.

“Well, if you’re going to sell the name of Blue Dragon, it’s good to have it. Me and Jecca Malone actually met Kriesha-nim. It’s not like it’s a 10% pure lie.”

“Heh heh…. Crazy guy.”

“First, let’s go pick up Jecca.

You finally get that friend out.”

“You are probably the first in the history of the Empire to release a prisoner imprisoned in a dungeon in less than a year.”

Phi!

Yuma whistled. From the other side of the garden, Tulka started running toward Yuma.
