9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 259

Episode 259 Episode

94. A strange demon named Rakir (1)

Two days later, Prince Illen’s army arrived at Seruka Castle and planted a flag. And Amel’s soldiers cleared the capital.

In the meantime, Yuma couldn’t care less about Rakir as he was busy healing his left arm that had turned purple.

‘When I absorbed Empey’s black lightning, my entire body turned purple, not just my left arm.’

At that time, he had passed out after 3 months of vomiting unidentified black lumps several times. When the memory came back, I felt uncomfortable.

But this time things were different.

He felt a great pain in his left arm, which had turned purple, but it was also accompanied by the feeling of being filled with the full power of the black aura.

It was all thanks to the magic sword. Amoulra refined and absorbed the black aura absorbed in his left arm little by little.

Also, although Yuma didn’t know it, during those three months when he was unconscious, Yuma’s body had formed resistance to the black aura.

In other words, he overrecovered as if he were building a muscle.

The factors that made this over-recovery possible were Yuma’s innate Aura affinity and the ogre blood that Duran fed.

Ogre’s blood is the crystal of power that is more pure than any other aura in the world. Inside Yuma’s body, Yuma’s own aura, the ogre’s aura, and the black aura mixed together flowed.

That’s why the misfortune of passing out or vomiting black lumps like in Empey did not happen.

‘Even the black aura is just one type of aura after all. I have to use all the power that can be used.’

Thinking so, Yuma practiced controlling the black aura that gathered on his left arm.

It was the first time since Empey absorbed the black aura, so it was difficult, but after two days, the left arm regained its original shape.

‘I think I’ll be able to control the black aura more easily in the future.

I have to keep practicing.’

Yuma thought as he created a sphere with his black aura. It wouldn’t hurt to recreate Empey’s black lightning one day.

“Hmm, there doesn’t seem to be a big problem right now, but it’s discolored… Yuma-sama, originally, the human body doesn’t change that quickly. you know?

Even if it is not revealed, there is a high probability that the body is overtaxed.”

Arriving at the Seluka Castle, Seryl inspected Yuma’s body and said. She collected green mana in both hands and scanned Yuma’s body.

“Anyway, you mean there’s no problem?”

“With my medical knowledge, there is no other way to explain Yuma-sama’s health. There won’t be anyone who uses their body like you.”

“Because you’re still young.”

“Actually, I’m not young enough, I’m at a young level. Let’s take care of our bodies a little more. Because you are the key to ending this war.

I’ll go take care of the soldiers.”

This time, the castle was full of scenes of terrible massacres. In particular, the dungeon, where they had just undergone a ceremony to make a tomb, was such a horrific sight that they couldn’t bear to open their eyes.

“Prince, I checked and found that Seruka’s king was offered as a sacrifice.”

“A dishonorable stand. I’m going to keep quiet and get my country back as quickly as possible. The allies have passed, but now Lagatino’s army will attack…

“Cantra’s reinforcements will come within a month. Seruka is a strategic location, so we will send an elite army.”

“Thank you, Baron Drake…. If the three Lucas survive until the war is over, I will support you with Serukaze Steel for the rest of your life. And this sword…

Prince Illen released the sword he was wearing and held it out to Yuma.

Serukaze steel sword, Seruka’s treasure passed down from generation to generation in the sizer royal family.

It was a sword whose quality did not fall significantly compared to Ascalon.

Yuma did not accept the sword.

“I cannot accept the sword that is the symbol of protecting the royal family. Especially in times like these, symbols have great power. Be strong, Prince Ilan.”

“You make me feel ashamed. You’re going to go to recover key points now. I’ll look for other equipment. This is the only thing I can do for you.”

‘This is the only one’, but Selukaze equipment was difficult to obtain even if you paid 10,000 gold.

Ilan ordered the artisans to pick up equipment that Yuma and the others could use. There weren’t that many Serukaze steel weapons left in the Serukah Castle warehouse.

The artisans brought a pair of swords for Randel and a chainsword for Natalie.

Unique weapons like the chainsword were rarely crafted from Serukaze steel, but fortunately there was one.

“Oh… I like the Serukaze chainsword. I will write well, my prince.”

“I am only grateful to you, Lord of Roses.”

“I will only accept your heart, Prince. The sword you are using now fits well in your hand. I think it would be better to sell that sword and add it to the army.”

Randall did not receive the twin swords.

In the Zach family’s arsenal, there were two Serukaze swords for Randel. However, he did not use the Selukaze twin swords because Orihalkon swords fit better in his hand.

The morale of the soldiers, who had gone to the bottom due to the invasion of the demons and the betrayal of the allies, was stabbed again.

It was thanks to the appearance of a hero named Yuma. Even the soldiers of Amel-gun who were captured as prisoners praised Yuma’s majesty.

The soldiers called Yuma an Ogre Slayer. Of course, what Yuma defeated was Maktoum, not an ogre, but there was no need to correct it.

It was because rumors that a new ogre slayer had taken up a sword for the Touhou would be more helpful in boosting morale.

The group sat around the room Ilan gave them and talked about the next schedule. First of all, it was necessary to wait for Ilten to organize the war situation in the central region.

“Ogre Slayer. I feel sorry for Captain Hugo.”

“How are you? That monster thought I was a giant too. By the way, what will this bastard do now?”

Natalie pointed to Rakir and said. Rakir had been bitten by Tulka’s snout for the past two days.

Tulka didn’t let Rakir go for a second except when he was chewing his food. Even while feeding, he pressed down on Rakir with one foot.

Rakir writhed and writhed incessantly, caught between Tulka’s teeth. However, he didn’t try to run away while shouting ‘lord’.

[Yeah! Crack! Lord! Stop this beast! They keep trying to eat me!]

“There are all kinds of things, really. I’m going to die of noise.”

[Your bitch will definitely punish me when I rise to the throne! Crong!] “He has good guts. Do you really have to tear off all your wings to make your words finer?”

[This body is a high-level demon who has lived for over a thousand years. I don’t give in to threats like that.] “To think that Hakila gave her soul to such an asshole… Ah! take heat I should have killed that bitch myself!”

[Heh, this body has given enough pain to that foolish woman. An insignificant human like you can’t do something like soul torture.

Because that’s the exclusive property of our demons!]

“That’s a nice story.”

[Hurry up and praise this body, girl. Lord! I have no doubt that my lord will conquer the Pandemonium…]

“Ask for more Tulka. That’s right.”

[Kying! Kiyi!]

Rakir was a talkative demon. Because of this, Yuma and the others fell into confusion when they saw Rakir constantly babbling even in this situation.

Is that really what you mean by advanced demons? No matter how I looked at it, it looked just like a puppy with wings and the ability to talk.

‘I’m going to have to dig up information from that Demon Puppy… but I can’t trust the Demons at all.’

Yuma thought as he watched Rakir struggling in Tulka’s mouth.

The advanced demons that Yuma experienced during the Dragon Horse War were never like that. At the time, the high-level demons were as dangerous as the cellove, and it took a few veteran sword masters to deal with them.

It was an image that did not match Rakir at all.

“Yuma, I need to get some information from this Demon Tribe. Shall we torture you properly?”

[Hee hee! girl! don’t do that!

Trust me, lord!]

“Ha ha. Free that Thulka.”

[Oh oh! Lord! You’ve finally recognized my loyalty!]

Tulka handed me the Rakir he was holding. As soon as Rakir was released, he shook himself vigorously and then lay down with his stomach open against Yuma.

It was a gesture that dogs and animals show when conveying their will to obey.

“Is Yuma-hyung really a demon?

It’s too cute.”

said Ballinan, her eyes shining.

Being a high-ranking demon, Ballinan seemed to have no sense of incongruity, so she unknowingly crouched down and gently scratched Rakir’s belly.

[Hehehe. Hi-Hi. omg! Don’t do it, kid.] Rakir laughed as if he was in a good mood, then opened his eyes with a serious expression.

“Rakir. Why do you want to follow me?”

Yuma kicked Rakir several times and asked nonchalantly. Rakir was busy flapping his wings and clinging to Yuma, even though he was being kicked.

[Didn’t I tell you? Your lord is closer than anyone else to the throne of the underworld! How did you acquire Amula and Marileis?]

“I took it from Empey.”

[Kya! You’ve defeated the despicable southern devil. Also, there is nothing more to hear. You are the one I’ve been looking for.]

“I can’t believe you’re a demon.”

[You are saying something strange. As long as he owns Amulla, it can be said that the lord has become more than half of the demons. Can’t you use a black aura too?]

It was an unpleasant story. Yuma picked up Rakir and slammed it against the wall without mercy. Rakir let out a grotesque scream, but it didn’t look like he hated it.

It was Yuma who somehow thought of Igor and gave goosebumps.

“If I repeat the nonsense that I am half a demon, then I will absorb you with something.”

[All right! Think carefully, lord. When the underworld is conquered, then everything is up to the lord’s will. It seems that your lord doesn’t like humans dying… Of course you can end this war.]

Rakir cleared his throat and continued.

[You may be in charge of life and death. For example, it can bring the dead back to life. Of course, it is impossible to resurrect in a distant state, but …]

“Where are you selling medicine?”

[Is that a lie? A demon is such a being. It would be better for you to take me away and obtain the status of a demon god, my lord. The underworld will soon invade the human world, so shouldn’t you have strength?]

At that point, Yuma couldn’t help but open her eyes. At that moment, Yuma almost asked Rakir, ‘How do you know that?’

“summer season? Are you saying that demons from the underworld are also targeting the human world?”

Yuma calmly chose a question and said.

[Humans cannot eat this fertile world alone forever. Accept me, the being who will be the pinnacle of the underworld.]

Rakir said as he lay down on his stomach again.
