9th Class Sword Master: The Guardian of the Sword Chapter 54

Episode 54

Episode 26. Anten No. 7 Demon Cave (3)

Cellov troops held their shields tightly and looked at Yuma’s back.

Fifteen of them, including Catherine and Zecca, were united, but Yuma was facing the orcs that surged like a wave alone.

I know that Yuma is strong.

But is it really possible to break through the road alone against hundreds of orcs? Aren’t we all bound to die here?

The members suppressed their trembling bodies, but the anxiety and fear were not something they could control.

Orcs were insignificant monsters if you looked at them individually. However, when gathered in the hundreds, they could exert power that surpassed the Imperial regular army of 1,000.

Above all, orcs belonged to a very dangerous axis because they were monsters that did not feel fear at all.

Yuma’s back was like a lake on a windless day. However, although it was invisible to the eye, an enormous jealousy that seemed to materialize at any moment was emanating from Yuma’s whole body.

Wow-!

Doo doo doo doo-!

As the shouts of the orcs drew closer, the party felt that their faces were stinging.

Hundreds of orcs were screaming with their eyes wide open.

Even in the heterogeneous darkness of the demon cave, the murderous intent of the orcs toward humans was clearly felt.

Orcs were armed with primitive weapons such as clubs and stone axes. However, it was a much more threatening existence than the human army armed with iron weapons and armor.

A monster whose strength and stamina are not comparable to those of ordinary humans, and who do not even feel fear.

Those Orcs were only aiming for Yuma and the Shell Rob troops.

As soon as she realized that the orcs were right in front of her nose, Catherine also shrank and became nervous.

Because of the Cellov troops surrounding him, he could not confirm the appearance of the Orcs. However, only the fighting spirit and murderous spirits of the Orcs were being transmitted beyond the members of the unit.

Catherine gripped her Oryhalcon sword with both hands. As I became anxious, I kept thinking of the face of my father, Duran Jacques.

“Gentlemen! If you guys are shaking, the lady is anxious! Pick up the momentum. That bastard has never failed to take responsibility for my words!”

Zecca shouted at the cellove crew.

Katherine looked up at Zecca in surprise. But Zecca didn’t look at Katherine and held Cybelin forward.

“It’s a start!”

Jeka exclaimed. It was the moment when hundreds of Orcs and Yuma clashed.

Ascalon’s aura had stretched his sword body to its limit. An aura rose like smoke from the entire sword body, which had been stretched over two spans.

Yuma opened his eyes and let out a cheer.

Ten Aura spheres flowed along Yuma’s body in a spiraling trajectory at high speed.

Right before colliding with the orcs, Yuma didn’t stop the power he was running on and turned his body once.

It was to wield Ascalon to its maximum extent.

Suaaagh-!

In a single attack, the upper bodies of four Orcs were cut off and their blood spilled. From the spot where the extreme speedy sword had cut through, the sand field burst and blood splattered.

Yuma bounced off the ground once more with his right foot, which he had used as a pivot. Ascalon, shining sadly, cut several orcs in half with a response.

Another orc’s face could be seen between the two parts of the orc’s body.

The death of his own kind only aroused the Orcs’ desire for vengeance, not fear.

A scene of slaughter with black blood and green flesh!

Wherever Ascalon swept away, parts of the orc’s body, such as fingers and jaws, popped up.

“Wowaaaaaa!”

Yuma let out a roar as he was covered in the blood of the dark orcs. The energy was strong enough to make the entire cave reverberate.

Dark, thick orc blood splattered on the top of Yuma’s head and shoulders. The orcs that were mercilessly cut down poured blood like a fountain.

Yuma spat the orc blood that came into his mouth and fired an aura blade. The blood of the orcs had an indescribable, foul taste.

Tuck!

The aurablaird, which was so condensed that Duran described it as ‘non-standard’, sliced and penetrated the orcs at random.

The last Aura Blade, which specially condensed more Auras, disappeared after touching five Orc heads.

“Huh uhhh…

Aquin and other crew members unknowingly let out a mixture of admiration and sigh.

Yuma, who was sometimes mischievous and sometimes severe, was nowhere to be seen.

Just looking at it, it looks like a goblin that plows through the sea of blood of monsters that make me sick. The incarnation of monster slayer wearing a human mask.

The members of the Shelob unit had chills running down their spines, to the point that excrement rose from their stomachs.

Catherine had no way of knowing whether the battle was going on.

However, whenever he moved forward little by little, he felt the remnants of the orc trampled on and small puddles of blood, and he could only visualize the situation as he heard the screams and screams of the orcs.

Zecca was cutting things like the head of an orc protruding near Catherine or the arm and ankle holding a stone knife with her Sibelin.

Even after cutting, touching, and cutting again, the orc showed no signs of shrinking.

From the time the number reached 50, Yuma hadn’t counted the number of Orcs he had killed.

Unlike when fighting against people, he had to swing his sword with maximum strength each time. If they showed an opening even for a moment or lost momentum, the orcs’ stone spears and clubs flew in.

Avoiding the one that flew into the head, and just hitting the one that flew into the chest, Yuma broke through the road.

If it was a normal sword and armor, it should have already lost its function and been broken.

If it weren’t for Ascalon, a sword that never breaks or loses teeth, and the ancient White Dragon, the Orcs wouldn’t have been able to rage like a storm.

“Croar!”

Three exceptionally large orcs ran across the ranks of the orcs.

They were holding huge sticks carved out of rock.

Respond!

He raised his arm to the limit and swung the blow, targeting Yuma’s head.

Even the whole stick was surrounded by a faint aura. It was clear that blocking this with a sword would expose gaps along with the physical burden.

As if Yuma couldn’t help it, he shot an aura orb that was spinning around with his club.

Puff!

The rock club exploded along with the wrist of the orc holding it. Stone dust and orc flesh were mixed and spread in all directions.

In the meantime, several orcs passed Yuma and ran towards the cellove troops.

The cellove troops stabbed their spears on one knee, sticking their shields into the ground. The members’ spear blades pierced the orc’s eyeballs and head.

For the first time in that moment, Catherine could see the path Yuma was going through.

There was so much black blood that it was difficult to tell which was Yuma and which was Orc.

Katherine, bewildered, barely recognized Yuma when she saw Ascalon flashing.

shhh!

At that moment, a stone ax was aimed at Catherine.

Zecca decided that it was too late to block it by swinging it, and intercepted the stone ax with a spinning stab. The crude stone ax disintegrated into powder when the blade of Cybeline touched it.

“Get your defensive formation straight again!”

Zecca grabbed the end of the hilt again and swung the cybelin to slit the heads of the two orcs and shouted.

The shields of the crew again covered Catherine’s vision.

“Hey heck!”

Yuma let out a hot breath and glared at the exceptionally tall orcs.

It was something I felt when fighting Caente, but even if the Auror sphere exploded only once, it consumed a lot of stamina.

Not to mention, it was a daunting task even for Yuma to wield Ascalon, whose blade was extended with an Aura Blade, without stopping, and to use the Aura Sphere while replenishing it whenever it shattered and disappeared.

But I couldn’t stop. There was still an eerie green mass swarming behind the large orcs.

The large orc whose wrist had been slashed with the weapon was tearing out his affected part with his teeth. It seemed to be an act to alleviate the pain.

‘They don’t feel fear… Dog-like Orcs.’

It was a disgusting race.

No matter how many humans there were, it was natural for them to back away in fear after facing such overwhelming slaughter.

Even Cellov showed a slowdown in a power struggle with Yuma. However, hundreds of Orcs were just like berserk warriors.

‘It’s much better to do one-on-one with a cellove.’

It felt like there was no end to dying and dying and killing again. During the Dragon Horse War, he would have to deal with tens of thousands of these Orcs.

Until then, I felt that Hugo or Marlon Jacques before returning to Duran must reach a different level.

Stone axes and boulders flying nonstop. Yuma decided to slay the large Orcs swiftly, deflecting the attack with Ascalon.

Yuma extended his stone spear and grabbed the shoulder of one of the orcs who rushed at him.

After concentrating the power in the palm of his hand, he jumped on the head of the fallen guy and jumped.

After floating in the air for a while, more than ten stone spears aimed and pierced Yuma’s whole body.

Yuma spun in the air and hit the stone spear, then aimed for the head of the large orc on the left.

“Cock!”

At that moment, a large orc on the right aimed at Yuma’s waist and rammed a rock club into it.

Yuma used the orb to come back once more and blasted his club and fingers.

He then gritted his teeth and swung Ascalon in the air. They couldn’t cut off their arms, but the big orcs’ eyes and noses were cut off.

As soon as Yuma landed on the floor, he threw three aura spheres forward at once. Large orcs and ordinary orcs burst like balloons, dropping a few points of flesh.

The movement speed of the aura sphere that spiraled around Yuma’s body decreased. It was evidence that his stamina was rapidly declining.

‘Even just a year ago, in this situation, I would have thought of death first.’

It was still an urgent situation. The orcs continued to charge at Yuma as if hypnotized.

Avoiding the weapons of the orcs and cutting off their bodies…

While the spectacle resembling a demonic scene unfolded, Yuma remembered the events before returning for some reason.

The days when my will was broken by such an insignificant guy and I was often pushed to death in scheming. Ah, I also remembered the many heroes who perished in the Dragon Horse War and the demonic curse that turned the human land into ruins and corrupted the Empress.

Far from getting angry, his head was clearing.

A foreign body was felt on the hardened blood on their faces, but it felt like even a single hair on the orcs’ bodies was clearly visible.

Yuma took another step and grabbed Ascalon, whose aura was slightly shorter than before.

The throats of the orcs rolled across the floor of the demon pit without rest. The road started to open again.

The crew members who had escaped from the cave were staring at the bloody Yuma, who had forgotten what to say.

“after.”

Shaking her head, Yuma let out a deep breath.

When Yuma held out her hand, Aquin jumped up and held out a water bottle.

Squeeze…

Yuma lifted the water bottle high and spilled the water.

The hardened blood of the orcs could not be wiped away. After rinsing her mouth and roughly washing her face, Yuma slumped down on her seat and looked toward the demon cave.

Catherine and the cellove troops also turned their heads and looked at the entrance to the devil’s cave.

Countless orc corpses were lined up from the entrance.

Zecca approached Yuma and stuck her cybeline into the ground.

Zecca silently started slapping her chest with her right hand.

All of the Sellove members who saw this stood by Jeka and followed his actions.

It was an expression of awe.

empty, empty.

“Sighs… stop and get ready to go back. The resin doesn’t fit at all. A magic crystal and a few troll teeth are the entire proceeds of this subjugation.”

Catherine trembled and looked at Yuma. For some reason, tears seemed to flow.
