Sword Emperor Kinkarnon (5)
Kinkarnon exploded the aura he had gathered in his sword.
Kwarrrrung-
As the lightning strikes, dozens and hundreds of pieces of debris fly around.
Chachachachachang!
Kinkarnon had to swing his sword nonstop to strike them down one by one.
After being hit, and being hit again, it was a fierce fight to the point where I thought my arm might break.
Phusss… … !
Kinkarnon stood on a completely ruined site.
But his appearance was a total mess.
Until the finals, the neat attire had been scorched by fire, and the blades were so chipped that they looked like they could break at any moment.
The stage was already half-ruined and out of shape.
The flames flickering around looked so suspicious.
“Aren’t you taking too many steps back?”
Kinkarnon’s expression hardened at Theo’s laughter.
He was the one who said he would teach me a few lessons on the spot.
The problem is.
‘Absolutely not below me… …!’
The fact that Theo’s power, wrapped in flames, was absolutely unrivaled.
It seemed that Amorena Leje would not be able to defeat Theo easily either.
With all that power, why didn’t you go to the Hangryongjeon?
Knowing how much people have doubted his abilities over the years?
If only I had participated in the Hangryongjeon, I would have been able to dispel those concerns… …!
‘No way. Because of me?’
For a moment, Kinkarnon felt a chill run down his spine.
The reason why Kinkarnon, Leje, and Ansio were obsessed with Hangryongjeon.
It’s simple.
It was to ‘prove’ to the family members and the head of the household that they were absolutely not lacking in the competition for the throne.
Because they still can’t give up their obsession with the throne.
For Theo, he can be classified as a ‘potential malcontent’.
In other words, it would be safe to say that he used the Hangryongjeon to weed out those who tried to challenge him.
and.
If only we could beat those who made it to the finals by putting the right charges on them at the end.
‘… … All the topics of the Hangryongjeon will be focused on Theo.’

It’s like just picking up a spoon and eating up what others have worked hard to prepare.
And now it’s exactly like that.
He wasn’t the only one who knew how to make copies.
Theo may have seen a few more steps ahead than he did.
Could that be why Pae-ryong disappeared without a trace, contrary to his promise?
To my younger brother who is just like my son.
How can it be so shameful to be toyed with by a bastard like that?
“… … .”
Kinkarnon took a long breath.
And I gathered my thoughts.
okay.
I actually thought it turned out well.
If we can defeat Theo cleanly here, and get the Emperor’s Scepter, then everything can start ‘new’.
“I admit my slip of the tongue. You are by no means a lowly being. You are stronger than anyone. Stronger than anyone I have ever met on the battlefields I fought for Ragnar. And.”
Theo just watched him quietly as he maintained his posture neatly.
“Many brothers have pointed their swords at me, but you are the first to have pushed me into a corner like this.”
“The introduction is too long for a compliment.”
“I would never give such praise to an enemy who is trying to take my life. I am only telling the truth.”
Phew!
Kinkarnon laughed.
For the first time.
“But I still thought about it. If I were to die here, I wouldn’t feel particularly wronged. At least it would be at the hands of someone stronger than me.”
Hwaaaaak!
A craze swept through Kinkarnon.
The fiery hot wind soon formed a whirlwind and reached high into the sky.
<Vision – Flame Vortex>
Kinkarnon’s own secret technique that he created while fighting on countless battlefields.
In contrast to the <inferno> that was trying to spread widely, the flames that were rising into the sky were reminiscent of the dragon that symbolized Ragnar.
“Of course, I think it’s no different for you.”
Kwaaaaang!
Kinkarnon kicked the ground hard. It was a completely different fight from the ones he had seen before.
Wedge-
Wherever he passed, distorted flames swirled in all directions.
The flames of Hell met it head on, building a wall of flames that reached sky-high.
Shhhhhh!

Four swords were fired simultaneously like arrows to capture Kinkarnon.
An offensive that is so flashy and unconventional that it’s almost as if there were four more Theos.
But Kinkarnon proved once again why he is called the ‘King of Swordsmanship’.
He knocked away the Myungmyo Sword that flew from the front, avoided the Yongsal Sword that was aiming for the blind spot behind him by slightly turning his head, and kicked the Yong Hwal Sword away.
Even though the Moonlight Sword deliberately swept the lower body a beat late, it was still able to sweep it to the side while wrapping the flames inward.
Movements where everything seems to flow like water.
He was able to perform the tricks that Theo could only do with the inspiration of the sword orb without any difficulty.
‘In terms of experience, he is several times superior to me.’
Theo realized that Kinkarnon would be absolutely impossible to subdue by normal means.
The skills of the two people are equally good.
However, Kinkarnon’s understanding of swordsmanship is far superior.
So how do we bridge that gap?
‘I don’t like it, but-‘
Theo opened Nirvana wide.
At that moment, as the speed of consciousness increased, time that made up the external world began to slow down.
[Activate <Nirvana> to expand your cognitive capacity regarding the outside world.] [Activate some of the components of <Clockwork Enumeration> to accelerate conscious time.]
Tick tock tock tock-
The ticking of a clock seemed to ring in Theo’s ears.
This is the application method that Theo created by completely accepting the ideas of the Emperor of Light Dragon, dismantling the magic of the Empress of Magic, and reinterpreting them in his own way.
Thanks to that, my brain gate was wide open and it was so hot that I thought my head was going to burn.
On the other hand, the countless inspirations pouring out from the world that had slowed down to the max gave Theo many choices.
Which one will you choose?
After that choice, what changes or outcomes can you expect, and what risks will you need to consider?
Then how about this choice?
It’s a risky choice, but if successful, you’ll be able to obtain Kinkarnon’s head… … .
Conversely, there are also defensive options… … .
.
.
Numerous possibilities and expected outcomes flashed before my eyes like afterimages.
A brilliant insight that can predict the future.
Couldn’t this also be seen as a kind of vision of the future that the Empress of Magic boasted about?
The problem is that too many choices sometimes make it difficult for people to make choices.
Theo listened to his inner voice and reached out wherever the impulses took him.
Paat-
Theo’s choice was very simple.
Head-on collision.

Chaaaaang!
Drake’s blade and Kinkarnon’s proud sword ‘Period’ clashed fiercely.
“You want to fight me head-on? I heard that you can use magic to some extent and that you have many innate abilities. But this doesn’t seem like a very good choice.”
Kinkarnon tilted his head as if he couldn’t understand.
“Is there a problem with the prosecutor using a sword?”
Theo, on the other hand, only raised questions.
“I use a sword because I’m a prosecutor… … Well, that’s not exactly wrong.”
Kwakwakwakwang!
In an instant, several sums collided.
Each time Drake’s blade and Period collided, flames would explode several times, shaking the blade.
Jejejeok-
The first cracks spread across the face of the greatsword.
It meant that Kinkarnon’s swordsmanship was that strong.
“But in the end, you will have to bear the consequences, right?”
And then the subsequent beating.
Shhhhhh!
Tata dadadang!
It seemed more like a bombing.
The swordsmanship was only persistent in targeting the cracks,
Oh my!
The broken sword flew into the air.
The weapon that Theo had been using as his favorite weapon for so long. And the trademark that had made him call himself Yaksha-seong had been broken.
But Theo, without showing any sign of panic, quickly walked inward and closed the gap with Kinkarnon.
Then he reached out and aimed for Kinkarnon’s nape.
It looks like the talons of an eagle trying to snatch its prey.
Kinkarnon was about to engage in a similar struggle, but a sudden, instinctive feeling of intimidation made him pull back and raise his sword.
Because of that, Theo barely managed to grab the inside of Kinkarnon’s blade.
Woojikkeun-
bang!
The moment Theo tightened his grip, Period was also shattered into pieces.
“… … !”
An evil force that does not appear to be human at all.
In fact, Period had already reached the end of its durability after colliding with Drake’s blade, and with Theo’s [Strength] added, it couldn’t hold out.
That alone was far superior to human standards.
How could he know that he had used the Awakening of the Dragon to further enhance his strength by adding the strength of the Ancient Dragon?

But I definitely realized that it was dangerous.
Kinkarnon took another step back, thinking that if he closed the gap with Theo, something really big would happen.
Now that his sword was broken, he too had to avoid attack until he could get his hands on a new weapon.
But that gap was exactly what Theo had originally wanted.
Shhh!
The Moonlight Sword and the Yongsal Sword, which had been stuck on the floor, were now in Theo’s hands.
‘Oh my!’
Kinkarnon only then realized his mistake, but it was already too late.
[Strong inspiration suggests a path.]
Theo was once again immersed in the infinite world, and swung the Moon White Sword and the Dragon Sword in succession as the inspiration indicated.
From left to right, from top to bottom. A dozen or so diagonal lines overlapped and overlapped again, gathering, exploding, and spreading the flames of hell.
Kwaaaaang!
Kinkarnon was instantly covered in blood and pushed back.
The power vacuum created by losing a weapon was too great.
Even with the flames, he was almost consumed by the inferno.
“If I… … haa… … break the sword… … haa… … my power… … haa… … will be weakened… … haa… … I noticed… … haa… … ! And that… … haa… … without knowing… … !”
Kinkarnon breathed heavily and lamented his mistake.
Destruction of Drake’s blade.
It wasn’t actually because he was good at it, but rather it was closer to what Theo was aiming for.
It was only for a moment, but it gave Kinkarnon a sense of relief and gave him the upper hand.
In order to close the gap and make Kinkarnon lose his sword.
“You are nearly invincible while holding a sword. That’s why you were given the nickname Sword Master.”
Theo plunged his two swords back into the floor, still seething with the brimstone of hell.
Instead, he took a white bead out of his pocket.
The relic that bound Shelford and his party.
“But once you lose that sword, you don’t know what to do and just wander around. You rely too much on the sword. On the other hand, I don’t.”
Can anyone defeat Theo, who has awakened Yong-in’s talent, in close combat?
I can confidently say that there were almost none.
That is why Theo wanted to draw Kinkarnon into the only game where he could seize the opportunity, and he succeeded in doing so, completely seizing the opportunity.
Paaaaah!
At that moment, the white beads shone.
[Hacked the ‘Chain Prison Bead’ to temporarily gain ownership.]
Chorrrrrr!
Chains shot out from the ground and the air, binding Kinkarnon tightly.
However, he approached Kinkarnon, who was still standing upright and trying to hold on somehow, and kicked him hard in the shin.
Phew!
thud!

Both knees touched the ground.
It was the end of the fight.
How the bastard of the Return Sword Family lives
