Chapter 599

#599. Don’t worry unnecessarily.

“…do you regret it?”

“I ask for your forgiveness if the girl’s question was too apologetic.”

“I have nothing to apologize for. It’s a question you should ask, and a question you should ask.”

fed up

with a light laugh.

The man she admired the most in the world said.

“It would be a lie if I said I had no regrets.”

Disappointment.

Bitterness.

pity.

and sadness.

Like sediment on the bottom of the deep seabed.

Even though a long time has passed, the emotions that remain like remnants, contained in a calm voice, make the heart ache.

“What is clear is that I will not hesitate even if a situation arises in which I have to slaughter a disciple again.”

Slashing Joan of Arc, the swordsman who caused the carnage by marching into madness.

As if he saved the life of Vlad, the swordsman who dabbled in black magic.

Crossing a line that shouldn’t be crossed.

If it is harmful to mankind.

No matter how much he cherished the disciple, he would not hesitate to point his sword at him.

As a guardian of mankind, his voice never wavers, so he is rather lonely as a teacher.

“So Asha.”

although not visible.

A clear gaze.

“I hope you don’t hesitate too.”

I respect you so much.

love more than anyone

So, at his request that she could never refuse, she…

“Hey, lady?”

“…”

For a very short while.

she didn’t understand

Why do I hear crude, dialect-mixed words instead of his longing voice?

And who is the owner of this thick hand that tapped her shoulder?

But it’s only for a moment.

After getting rid of the short sleepiness and remembering who she was and where this place was, she straightened her posture and asked calmly.

“What are you doing?”

“I’m sorry I woke you up when you were sleeping soundly, but the border is getting closer.”

“Is that so?”

while he was sleeping.

The silver-haired woman finally realized that she had arrived at the promised place.

Atastasia got off the cart.n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

Then he took out a wad of bills and handed them to the farmer driving the cart.

“Thank you for driving me this far.”

“Thank you for taking care of me so thickly that I drove you all the way here, so I should be thankful.”

The farmer smiled happily and took his wages.

And before letting go of the woman’s hand.

He said it as if he had just remembered it.

“I don’t mean to give you a ride here, but you better be careful when crossing the border. The atmosphere over there is unusual.”

“Is it enough to be careful?”

“Yes, the atmosphere in that neighborhood has never been good, but they say it’s especially bad these days.”

“Thanks for the advice.”

“Hmm.”

Looking at Anastasia, who lowered her head slightly, the farmer scratched his chin.

It was because I could tell from that answer that she had no intention of turning back.

But that’s all.

The farmer didn’t stop her.

After all, she gave me a ride for a few pennies on the road, so I didn’t need to say much, and her outfit itself ruled out any further interference.

“Then good bye, ma’am.”

So, out of courtesy, after a light greeting.

driving the cart again.

The farmer shook his head.

“Anyway, I don’t know who the Murim people are.”

I can’t even see my eyes

Because I can’t hear properly.

The farmer slowly walked away, clicking his tongue at the woman’s behavior as she calmly crossed the border alone with her sword.

Take a moment to look at the back.

Anastasia turned and headed east.

across borders.

A land ruled by 77 clans.

Across the Seventy-Seventh Commonwealth of China.

In search of his master who is staying in the far-off country of the East.

* * *

After losing contact with Limon.

Other clans soon found out.

It was because everyone was paying attention to his trend.

whether it is for personal interest.

Whether it’s to stop the World Federation.

Whether it’s for smuggling.

Therefore, each response was different.

Someone contacted me every day, someone sharply questioned Li Qingyu, and someone secretly searched for Limon’s traces.

And among them, there was a princess who was surprisingly calmly observing the situation.

“Hmm.”

soaking in hot water.

A silver-haired girl who groaned languidly.

Yekathrice asked suddenly.

“What do you think Kana?”

“There is an 80% chance that the Black Dragon Princess is planning something again.”

“Is it really so?”

“Does the princess see it differently?”

A maid with a prosthetic arm made of silver iron attached to her left arm while taking a bath next to her.

To Kana’s words, Yekathrice answered calmly.

“I wonder if the fact that I lost contact this time and disappeared was unexpectedly due to my brother’s intention rather than Li Qingyu’s.”

“Why do you think so?”

“Because my brother is madder than me.”

“….”

“Can you stop looking at me like a crazy bitch, Kana? Then it will become a habit.”

It seems so embarrassing.

For a moment, look at Yekathrice with reddened cheeks with cold eyes.

Knowing the answer anyway, Kana asked something else instead of asking if she was sane.

“Does the swordsman have a reason to go into hiding?”

“Well, I don’t know the details, but it must be to protect humanity again?”

Is it because of the World Federation?

Whether it’s because of the other princesses.

There is no way that Limon doesn’t know how dangerous it is to cut off contact with the current situation and disappear.

Nevertheless, if he suddenly disappeared, it would be because humanity would be in danger if he did not take such a risk.

speak with confidence

The craziest in the Seven Dragons.

That’s why the princess, who knew Limon’s deepest nature, smiled meaningfully.

“My brother is the guardian of mankind, not because he can do anything to protect the world, but because he has no choice but to do it.”

* * *

Everyone changes.

The same goes for the Sword Master.

But isn’t change only positive?

In particular, sword masters with absolute power and immortality were more likely to go mad or become corrupted.

However, there is one reason why Limon, who has lived for a long time, can still remain as the protector of mankind.

because you have been doing good.

whether your mind is shaken

whether delusion arises

If you act according to the line you’ve set, you can take care of yourself.

So this moment.

Limon put on a heavy expression as he stroked the head of the sleeping Indian girl on his lap.

It is possible to unwrap.

Instead, the running repair dies.

However, if you leave her alone like this, one day you will have no choice but to become an enemy because of drunkenness.

And one Noh Kang-ho.

As a protector of mankind.

he was well aware

He knew that taking the life of a running repairman right now was the best choice he could make.

Of course, the sword master is a superhuman.

No matter how deeply asleep it was, it was an existence that could block any ambush.

Especially if it’s a sword spirit.

But I don’t know if it’s someone else.

Limon can kill her.

Like sleeping on your knees right now.

Because he was the only opponent that running repairs wouldn’t be wary of, not only in reality, but even in dreams.

that’s why i’m thinking

thinking and worrying

It was time to stay up all night.

“Swordsmith, don’t worry unnecessarily.”

Following the voice that rang through the air.

Limon slowly raised his head.

He then asked Maia, who was looking at him with gloomy green eyes from across the campfire.

“What worries?”

“Should I kill the Sword Spirit?”

“…”

“The choice you have to make is already decided.”

cold as always

tainted with pessimistic ridicule.

To Maia’s sharp point.

Limon asked quietly.

“What choice do I have to make?”

“Finding a way to save the Sword Spirit.”

Is it because the answer is so unexpected?

Or is it because I was stabbed in the middle?

After a long silence.

Limon opened his mouth.

“If Suri continues to be entangled in the spell and used by the Commander, it will be a danger to the Seven Dragons as well as to mankind.”

“I know.”

“If you break the spell, Suri will have no choice but to die.”

“You already heard that.”

“It’s nothing more than cheap hypocrisy to keep Suri alive after returning from the dead anyway.”

rather than an explanation.

It’s like remembering what you have to do.

At the end of looking at Limon, who said it over and over again.

Maia finally twisted her blue-white lips.

“Swordsmith.”

cold as ice

It seems to be pessimistic about everything.

Cold words leaking out of pessimistic ridicule.

“Stop being weak.”

“…Is that a weak sound?”

“No matter how long you have lived, you are only a swordsman. But why do you conclude that just by looking at it for a moment, you can’t break the spell?”

Limon was at a loss for words.

If you break the spell, the running repair will die.

However, that was a story when using the method of a sword master.

But what about Sir, the Archwitch?

Or, if you get help from the god of the Holy League, seek the knowledge of the fairy queen, or at least use the player’s skills?

Maybe we can find a way to break the spell without taking the life of the running eagle.

Regardless of personal feelings, the possibility of making a sword master an ally is enough reason to try such a thing.

Nevertheless, there are two reasons why Limon put aside that possibility.

“…I don’t know if that’s really possible. Even if possible, you never know how long it will take.”

Even so, compared to the world federation, it’s thirteen in power.

Limon is suffering from the coin intoxication.

Now that we are competing for the millennial flower.

Carrying a running repair caught in a spell is like carrying a bomb that never knows when it will explode.

Rather than taking such a risk, it was safer and safer to just kill the running eagle.

“That’s what you call a weak sound.”

I couldn’t have known that fact.

Rather than reaping ridicule.

I only snort and sneer.

Maia glared at Limon with sharp eyes.

“Since when do you mean you have been looking for the easy way and doing only what is possible?”

“…”

“At least the Limon Aspelder I know isn’t that weak.”

distant past.

Whether as an enemy who killed the green dragon princess.

Whether it was as a hero who cut down the Sword Demon who tried to destroy the Seven Dragons after seven deadly battles.

At the same time, as a benefactor who saved himself from dying in a runaway while receiving resentment and hatred.

And after hundreds of years of bondage to Eun-won, she was the one who eventually ruined herself with the feeling of love.

Only about this hump.

The one who can stand firm and overcome is a man named Limon.

At the end of looking at Maia, who was unwavering in her assertion, with indescribable eyes.

Limon asked quietly.

“Why are you doing this?”

“What do you mean?”

“I’m asking why you’re convincing me that you don’t have to kill Suri. Doctors don’t have to take that risk.”

“I want to ask something obvious.”

“What’s the obvious?”

whatever the later

If you keep running repairs alive.

The most dangerous right now are Limon and Maia.

So, as the Green Dragon Princess, who must inherit the dragon’s true blood, she should rather insist on killing the running eagle.

But what is obvious?

He looked at Limon with gloomy green eyes as he asked with a face of complete incomprehension.

Maia said sharply.

“No wonder I do this because I don’t want you to get hurt.”
